Channelknight Fadran Posted October 3, 2023 Posted October 3, 2023 The shovel is dissolved. Oh, the horror.
Ookla de los Cuervos he/him Posted October 3, 2023 Posted October 3, 2023 sleeper smiles. "i wondered when you could come back" and quickly draws a circle around the demon, forcing it in the circle so it cannot escape while he does the ritual.
NameIess Posted October 3, 2023 Posted October 3, 2023 (edited) Confusion fills shovel man as his shovel appears to dissolve. Confusion at how something so impossible could happen. That shovel had been with him since childhood. It was given to him by his father, and for as long as he can remember that shovel has been his near-constant companion. It wasn't magical, of course. Nothing about him was magical. But even still, he feels as if its destruction should have been impossible. As if something is incredibly wrong with the world. Shovel man's head begins to spin, his knees weaken, and he collapses to the ground unconscious. Edited October 3, 2023 by Nameless*
Edema Rue she/her Posted October 3, 2023 Posted October 3, 2023 Xiylna flies forward. "Mmm...naughty naughty!" She says, her voice changing from shovel man's to the second's to sleepers, then back again. "That was very naughty."

Channelknight Fadran Posted October 3, 2023 Posted October 3, 2023 But the Gaze was out of reach; as all things seen, but unknown, tend to be.
Ookla de los Cuervos he/him Posted October 3, 2023 Posted October 3, 2023 sleeper begins chanting, binding the greater demon to his will.
Mags she/they Posted October 3, 2023 Posted October 3, 2023 Penn, still sitting on his picnic blanket, decided to offer it some tea. He stood, pouring The Gaze a cup. "One lump or two?"
Ookla de los Cuervos he/him Posted October 3, 2023 Posted October 3, 2023 The drawn circle glows with purple-red light now.

Ookla de los Cuervos he/him Posted October 3, 2023 Posted October 3, 2023 sleeper looks at shovel man, then motions for someone to help the poor guy.

Ookla de los Cuervos he/him Posted October 3, 2023 Posted October 3, 2023 sleeper snuffs it out, because playing with fire is dangerous.
NameIess Posted October 3, 2023 Posted October 3, 2023 The ex-shovel man mutters something incomprehensible.
Edema Rue she/her Posted October 3, 2023 Posted October 3, 2023 Xiylna also mutters something incomprehensible. Then she makes more fire and starts singing to it.
Ookla de los Cuervos he/him Posted October 3, 2023 Posted October 3, 2023 sleeper says "i can get your shovel back, just let me bind the demon."
Channelknight Fadran Posted October 3, 2023 Posted October 3, 2023 "I kind of doubt that, but you're welcome to try."
Aeoryi she/her Posted October 3, 2023 Posted October 3, 2023 Just now, Channelknight Fadran said: "I kind of doubt that, but you're welcome to try." "It can speak!" The second said,
