They soon found a room in which the darkness was near absolute. A small light emanated from Jakob, dispelling all their exhaustion.

@Argenti
You’re welcome.

The Eternal King looked at him sideways. “You’re dead god giving us this light?”

Ok, I’ll refrain from the end until Glass gets on.

 

"Apparently."

Felicity had broken off a bit ago from the group. She knew Aela would notice that something was wrong, and Aela couldn’t know. Lissy didn’t want her to worry. 

Cye approached her. She tensed and turned away. “Hey.”

She didn’t answer. 

“Is everything okay?”

”I’m fine. Don’t worry about it.”

”… so something’s wrong.”

”N-no!”

”People don’t say ‘don’t worry about it’ if there’s not something to worry about. You just don’t want me to know.”

She hesitated and muttered, “I don’t want Aela to know.”

”I don’t have to tell her,” Cye said softly. “But if it’s a big deal, you should eventually. Maybe she can help you.”

Felicity watched her toes.

”So can you tell me what’s wrong?”

”… Madness. She got in my head.”

”Madness… that was the one who…”

She nodded. 

Cye looked at her. “You don’t seem like you’re not fully aware of everything.”

”I… She can’t force me to do anything. She’s just… there. Mirth protects me from going fully…”

”Gotcha. Well.. this definitely isn’t something you should hide. You should tell Aela.”

”You said you wouldn’t tell her!”

”And I won’t. But you should.”

”But I…” she turned and glanced at Aela, then looked back at her toes. “I don’t want her to worry about me.”

”It looks to me like she already does. She seems like a big sister to you. She’s always looking out for you.”

Felicity didn’t answer. 

“You don’t have to tell her yet. But you should soon.”

There was a moment of silence between them. After it was clear that that conversation died, Cye asked, “Can I call you Mouse?”

Felicity looked up at him. “What?”

”Its just… you’re quiet, you have big eyes… you’re cute…”

She blushed. 

“You know, like a mouse.”

She looked down and nodded a bit. “Yeah. That’s okay.”

Cye nodded. “Alright.” After a second, he put his arm around her. She tensed for a moment, then relaxed.

To clarify… only Mirth can hear this but y’all should know it happened

Mirth let her have her moment, sending support.

Jakob rolls his eyes when he notices the two blushing at each other. He yells over to them.

"Hey. I get having sweethearts but the universe is ending. Please get a move on."

aw . . .

Aela noticed her away from the group. She watched her and Cye talk, concerned.

She should probably do something about that . . .

@Argenti

 

They reach a large room, one the far side of which darkness pools. A figure kneels in the middle of it.

@Argenti

I’m ready to tell you who the Eternal King is.

@Through The Living Glass

Welcome. You see my predicament?

@Spark of Hope

I trust you, daughter.

 

The Eternal King turns to them. “This man… he is one of them. A subject of my kingdom. I can hear him, just barely.”

Isn't he also possed over there? Jakob gesture towards the way they're traveling

Well yes, but this a younger version of him. Before he was so rudely accosted by the Slumber.

It’s a good point that Intellect never actually meant to be divinity. It was the Healer’s mistake that placed him as such.

This is my humble castle of darkness. Make yourself at home.
