Shoe grinned, too.

Happy. Yep. It feels good.

Tam eyed her warily. "Uh . . . Rose? Hey. How do you feel?"

"Happy good," the rosebud repeated to itself. It bounced over to the rock and the leaf. "Happy good!"

"Happy good," they noted. 

Beosta watched them, somewhat entertained. 

--

She yawned, stretched, and gasped in mock astonishment. "You care? Wow, did you suddenly grow a heart overnight?" 

Noticing the ash, she frowned. "What the..."

Shoe grinned and rested his head on Beosta's.

"Nope! I'm utterly heartless," she replied, gesturing to Rose's body.

"I just want to know if . . . whatever that is, is contagious or not."

She squeezed his hand. 

The little spirits congregated in a huddle that seemed rather serious. Then they broke apart and the leaf approached the two of them. "Lytikyria?" 

He sounded rather timid.

Rose swore, standing and brushing ash off herself. "Was... was she here?"

Aelorin hesitantly put his hand to the handle, pushing the door open.

@Halcyon The Only

I know you already posted here, but I’m to lazy to find it. I remember what it said tho.

As he pushed the door open, he froze, sighed, and continued on with a sword unsheathed.

“I… I have been known as many things. I have been Scribe, Mystic, Kingslayer, Favored. But… first… I was Drin. Perhaps never simple, but that was a time when others would not look at me and see divinity.”

so like…

I actually never posted anything about Drin, but he’s actually pretty important in Pyk’s world. He comes after, in Wriulin’s empire, and is the protagonist of books 2-3.

He never becomes the Scribe canonically, tho.

Gurwarp continued into the room, holding the torch high, blade held in the one-handed defense stance.

Shoe looked at it, confused.

What?

Tam shook her head. "I don't think so."

“You’re not divine. Your human. Obviously. You look human. So…. You are?” Atlas says slowly unsure of really how to comfort people. Still slightly overwhelmed by all that was happening.

i love how we just ignore the fact that the emperor is threatening Ashton rn and we just chillin. And i sorta put Asher back into pyks line out of where ever the trial was at. 

Also. Book?

eehhhh

we gotta wait for the emperor anyways

 

Uuuuuuhhhhhhh

unfinished books

that I wish were a thing

im writin em slowly

also, oh yea.

Pyk frowned, looking around as if he had been in a haze. “Sorry… I’m a little… confused… right now…”

 

The Scribe smiled. “Thank you, Atlas. Sometimes, when I write the stories I have been dictated to write, the Drin back then seems like an alien creature. Or the stray thought comes that should he see me now, he would not recognize me.

”But you have reminded me of the simplicity of life. Ofttimes, people search their entire life for the answer to their deepest questions, a solution to the most pressing problems. But… most of the times, it is as simple as that observation.”

hah np 

The ground shook menacingly in the very regularly-sized room. It appeared to be some sort of dormitory, with several bunks and a large vanity, as well as a closet and dresser. On the other side of the room was an open window to absolute darkness. A chill in the wind came from it. 

She leaned on his shoulder. 

"Happy?" The rose chittered, bouncing around them curiously. "Happy happy?"

Beosta grinned. "Yes. Happy." 

Rose stirred. "Ow," she groaned. "No fair." 

Aelorin looked at his companion. “Prepare now. You will not get a second chance.”

He unsheathed his second blade.

mmmhmmm by the way yall, Aelorin will not be accepting magic except in the form of cool swords.

Rebus Narrates the destination of the original Narrators into reappearing, perfectly depleting the Narrative power he’d been sent by the original. 

The Narrators shifted around them. They crowded the area.

A ghostly sound howled through the window. Whimpering could be heard from the closet.

What?

Tam shook her head. "I don't think so."

"Lytikyria gone. Lytikyria okay?" 

"Uh... who?" 

The leaf bobbed in a frustrated sort of way. Need more words.

---

Rose looked disturbed. She stared at the ash and swallowed, hard. "I... I don't think it's contagious. I think she needs to infect you somehow..."

"Rose... is everyone down there infected?" Bat asked quietly. 

"Everyone."

Tam swore.

"That's not good . . . do you know how to stop it?"

Gurwarp hung the torch on the torch rack, then moved to the two-handed defense position. "What's in here? I feel... something. A presence."

More words to talk.

Rose shook her head, looking away to conceal the frantic tears welling up in her eyes. “I don’t even know what it is. But they— they’re all like zombies. Bat, don’t let me become a zombie. Just kill me instead.” 

Bat seemed deeply disturbed by the idea.

Through the window flew something that launched itself at Gurwarp, shrieking.

KeCil sliced at the vines covering the cave. He had switched to his Forged knife to cut. A faint purple glow came from within.

Aelorin leaped into action, fluidly bringing his blades towards the beast, landing them on its wing.

Tam wasn't completely opposed to the idea, but she didn't like how it worried Bat.

"Do you know why the metal turned to ash?"

she pats his hand. BTW she is like four foot seven. So he's like a giant to this eight year old. "anytime friend."

"right.... so.... pyk... what kinda girls.. or guys I don't judge or monsters.. are you into hmmmm" she asks resting her feet up on the air and puts her hands behind her head

Was I confusing? I meant the same thing the original Narrators found. 

Accepting a bit more power, Rebus (prime) fixes his Author's poor communication, then creates incorporeal specters of the original visitors for good measure.

The Scribe smiles, then looks at The Emperor, frowning slightly. “To be honest, Atlas… I am scared. This Maelstrom is like if Madness had her full power.”

lol

@The Sly Cookie

 

Pyk frowned, not sure how to answer that. “The uuuuhhhh… the human kind?”

Gurwarp sliced through the creature, cutting off its arms and a leg.

Or he would have, if the blade hadn’t gone right through.

The specter cackled. She— now identifiable as a woman— clawed at his face, leaving deep scratches with her nails.

It went through, again. 

The beast cackled again, red flashing in her eyes. It faded after a second.

“Pick up talk,” the leaf said, sounding satisfied. 

She shook her head. “She can make it do that, but… I don’t know why it happened.”

”Well, I’m blind, and this camera is very blurry, so… style doesn’t matter. For that matter, neither does color. Blonde doesn’t matter either. But I guess I would like someone smart.”

"Hmm."

Tam conjured a small machine and put it on Rose's arm, careful not to touch her.

It uncurled and spread over Rose arm, much like the device Tam had given Bat.

She felt a little pinch, but otherwise it didn't seem to do anything.
