Mr. Misting he/him Posted January 7, 2023 Report Share Posted January 7, 2023 (edited) 1 hour ago, xinoehp512 said: "Indeed," she replied. "I am Mariel. Princess of the Nameless Isle." She leaned on her scepter thoughtfully. "Viney. Stuck Up. Acolyte." She raised her scepter and pointed at each one of them in turn. "Come here." The words rang with the force of command, and the three felt their bodies move towards her involuntarily. Miyako glared at Mariel but didn't resist. To much at least. 50 minutes ago, xinoehp512 said: Mariel's eyes glittered, and she smiled slightly. "Hmm. I don't think so, Viney. Stand up." The command crashed into Hyron's mind, an irresistible impulse to follow the princess's command. At least until she started ordering Hyron around. Miyako's voice became ice hard. "Do that again and I kill you." @CalanoCorvus Edited January 7, 2023 by Mr. Misting 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Halcyon Girl she/her Posted January 7, 2023 Report Share Posted January 7, 2023 Kealie regained consciousness. Unfortunately, everything hurt, her vision was blurry, and she had no idea where she was. "Can I just be dead now?" She groaned weakly. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She glared daggers at the princess, but restrained from smacking that infuriating smirk off her face with a vine. 1 hour ago, Mr. Misting said: Miyako glared at Mariel but didn't resist.

I will kill you, maybe not now, but until my dying breath. I will find you in your sleep and slit your throat. I will put your head on a pike and burn it. Command her," Miyako paused, "either of them and my sword will be stained with your blood." She spoke with no inflection, only cold dark truth. As if stating a simple fact. Her eyes were empty of all emotion and her body was held perfectly still. Darker than any Shadow could hope to be. 2 hours ago, The Aspiring Archivist said: "What do you want?" Quote Yes sorry. The witch fixed Antin with a glare. "I want my house back." "Are you sure your...ok?" Quest said awkwardly gesturing at the witch's various wounds. The witch snorted. "I'm quite sure I can take you two now that your mentor and terrifying friend are gone." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One, she hardly knows you and her only experience is of you, the tree and a force field. I've thought about how it would feel to have that happen and it is horrifying. And two, I think it is very funny. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"What is it?" "Try opening a connection to it like the kind you have with Eej." Quote An aether stone is pure, condensed magical energy. You can draw upon it to power up your spells and life energy and such. Seeing as how Eej is magical and Kealie's connection to Eej is also magical, eating up more magical energy should do the trick. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now that sh was focusing on it, she could feel the energy inside it, energy she needed and was hungry for. I hardly took ten seconds to open the channel, and then as she widened it, energy splashed into her, roiling around. Her exhaustion from using her magic vanished, and a little hunger lifted, with plenty of energy left. She poured it into Eej, whose vines healed and movements became fluid and far more natural. She was still hurt, but Eej was fine now. She smiled at Vance. "Thank you." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
