Ryan gives it a quick blow. A sharp, high, note pops out, and out of the corner of his eye, he see's a shadow. Not exactly a shadow, though. There wasn't anything to cast it, and it seemed to be moving. When he looked, though, it was gone. He ignored it though, and a smile grew on his face.

"A definite joy,  I'm filled with bliss,

but it might take a while to learn to play this."

"While singing is great, my point still stands,

you didn't sing that, you said it, because you can!"

“I can’t sing. La la la.” Elan says, extremely off key.

"Can I come with you?"

Rue looked at him. "I want to feel safe. And I want to not hurt anyone. That won't happen if you're there."

"Room? I guess that's something I cannot avoid,

as it seems right now we're trapped in a void.

With sense of direction, I must be the worst in the land,

It would be really great If you could lend a hand."

"Okay," Tal says, taking a slightly glowing green key off the wall. here we go again "Up 8 flights of stairs, then turn left at the weird rock, you'll know it when you see it, then down the slide and it'll be the 16th room on the ceiling."

Tal scribbled down a note, flinching. Reminder: soundproof all the rooms.

Elan looks over Tal’s shoulder. “Ouch.”

"You won't hurt me. And would you really feel better alone?"

"Dang, that's a lot of stairs,

I hope, at least, that my room has a chair."

Ryan grinned at using slant rhyming, maybe it was wearing off. He took the key, and tried not to get lost.

Tal shoves it in his pocket. "For other reasons! Some people like scream therapy, and not all of them stick their heads into pillows at the end of Rhythm of War! You just reminded me of it is all."

"See ya," Tal called after him, then scribbled another note. Install those teleportation elevators.

"Then please, let me be with you there. I care about you, and I don't want you to be alone."

Rue looked away. Light, this isn't how this was supposed to go.

"I..." He took a deep breath. "If you really, truly believe that it would be best for you to be away, and alone, I can't stop you. But... I really hope you'll let me be there for you."

Walking to his room, then climbing, then sliding, Ryan repeatedly looks over his shoulder, trying to get a good look of the weird shadow that seemed to be following him. For a moment, he thought he saw a shifting geometric pattern on the wall, but then it was gone.

Truth...

He spun around again, catching another glance of the pattern.

"Cursed shadow, is this singing a curse you gave?

If you really want truth, have this: it's attention I crave.

With an office job, working in a cubicle,

I feel as insignificant as a gull.

So, I kind of enjoy this singing curse,

It brings me attention, even if it brings me to the hearse."

The shadow, no, the pattern, crept out from the corner of his vision, making it look like there were shifting ridges in the floor.

That will do. Also, that isn't my "curse".

"What are you, and why have you came?

And if I may ask, do you have a name?"

You read The Way of Kings, you should know what I am.

Ryan found his door, opened it, and walked in.

Can you assume this conversation continues? This is already really long.

Rue shook her head. Oh, light. Why am I so afraid? "Okay."

TAAron immediately relaxed, and seemed to breathe easier. "Alright. Where is it we'll go?"

"I don't know."

"Well, I guess we can wait here to work it out... or just go."

"Yeah." Rue was quiet.

Elan materialized in the clinic. "Everything is fine." He said, "I'm sure the clinic won't spontaneously combust for at least another week."

"Nice couplet," Elan commented. "And a good tune."

I like no one is concerned that a former (but they don't know she was former) murderer who also looks like their friend who just dusted away.

He nodded. "Would you like to make a choice, then?"

“I don’t know.”

“Um… can I have a…. Uh…” Elan thinks for a second. “I don’t remember.

“Okay. Well if you do, you can always let me know.”

Ryan wanders down to the lobby and asks Tal @Ookla the Believer

"To ask you a question I have come,

If I see spren, is that real or a symptom?"

“Oh, yeah, those are usually real. Happens all the time. We have some radiants, some mistborn, some things you’ve never heard of. Congrats!”
