Nobody was there.

"Who's there!" He yells.

"Bloody!" The guard exclaims pulling back.

The energy crackled again, and a faint light shone out around the sword's hilt.

"Simply awake."

A crack appeared in the wall with light shining through.

The traveler nods. "Thank you for your help."

She steps through the crack in the wall and awakens.

There was a dark laugh. 

"I am."

"Why does everyone think you're so scary?" Lady Bug asked.

"Very well. Tell me, what does the name Witherlord mean to you?"

Ivisyre's expression darkened. "I will not serve the Witherlord. I will not be corrupted into a a mindless withergeist to be used as a pawn."

"Mindless?" said the figure, lowering his hood. Dark wisps played around his eyes. "I am not mindless, nor is my master. Why would we make you so? You would be of little use to us in such a state."

You appear in what seems like a conference room within a noble court. The stained glass windows shine in light from the surrounding cosmos. You realize you are on an aircraft traveling through the astral sea. The room lit by golden chandeliers and the room is ornamented with golden trim along most all of the architecture. The room is almost like being in the higher planes with the marble floor and white quartzite pillars. In the middle of the room is a long table surrounded by what looks to be very important people around a room and at the head of the table is The Emperor. Kahmir sighs and looks to someone at his side. "Bloody-," His authoritative voice sounds calm and soothing. "Gramdon, I thought you said that the room was unable to be intruded upon." He looks at the man distastefully and shakes his head.

There appears to be guards in front of the door and they let you know that the Emperor is not currently there.

Sain grinned, and one of his Strands gave a wave. “You never answered my question. But I’ll have you know, a very powerful person sent my here.”

And with that, a note fell down to Kamir.

Tull looked around in Onyx’s domain, confused. Madness seemed to have left him for some reason.

He paced on the room he had never left, though everyone else had.

Ivisyre took a step back, giving a soft hiss. "I will not destroy without goal at the behest of a creature such as he. And before you accuse me of hypocrisy, I am completely sane, sapient, and goal driven. The Witherlord is nothing more than an animal."

A traveler walks through Onyx's realm, hurrying past the charred remnants of a horde of insects. She travels towards the border, walking with purpose. The first part of her plan to save Nogard has gone better than she hoped, but much work yet remains for her, and she can feel her time growing shorter.

Did Ista leave? She went to the party, but when she returned she would have gone back.

The man shook his head. "We do not plan to destroy without goal. The mantle of the Witherlord is merely a tool- a means to an end."

Ivisyre groaned, rubbing their eyes. They scratched their head and looked at the scarred ground, thinking for a good long while. Eventually, they spoke. "...Explain. Better this time. What exactly is it you want of me?"

"We would like you to be a hand of our organization. One that is not so obviously tied to us, so as to escape the suspicion of... certain entities. We will give you tasks to fulfill, and if you do not find them objectionable, you will carry them out."

Yessir!

The Scribe was able to influence her again, and he was bored of Tull for that time.

"Who's 'we'? What is this organization? What kind of things would I be doing? Who are the entities you don't wish to attract the suspicion of?" Ivisyre summoned Inversion, stabbing it into the ground in front of them and leaning forward on it to look at the figure expectingly.

"'We' are those who follow Charnyx. Those who we wish to remain hidden from..." Figures formed from the black mist. A person in armor. A man wearing a flamboyant costume and a cheerful smile. "And, of course, the Ennullers."

Hehe I don't care too much as long as he don't die or get maimed in the long run

Bat cursed. He retrieved his dagger from the ground (cuz he'd traveled back to get it). "You should probably go," he told his bird. "I'm some kind of magnet for bad things happening." 

The crow (who was Thread-aware) wasn't sure why almost everyone hated Bat so much.

It stayed on his shoulder.

A tiny, timid mewling sound came from the bush.

Tam followed.

"Wait!" she called as the ran.

Ivisyre squinted at the figures, not recognizing them. They liked the idea of hiding from Enullers. That was intriguing. “You still haven’t told me who Charnyx is,” Ivisyre pointed out. “Or how the Witherlord is involved.”

"Charnyx is our leader. As for the Witherlord... What did you suppose the power was we intend to summon?"

Unintelligible wondered if Sequence was ready to go on a quest yet, so he teleported to her planet to check.

Tull nodded. “Where am I, exactly?” A pause. “Is there anything I can do for you to get my Narration back?”
