The Longest Thread (Misadventures)

[Sand Mastre]

Turns out ChatGPT can actually tell me all about The longest Thread (Misadventures). I basically have ten separate entire essays about different parts of of powers and history. It’s probably all pretty bad and inaccurate but it feels like a solid base. I also have an idea for a plot blade. 
 

But I didn’t want that to be my only knowledge. 

I started reading from the beginning but it was long and I didn’t get very far. 

so I jumped half way and then was confused and lost again.

should I read the last 10 pages to catch up or just jump in?

Kiornight paused at the sound of a yell. Had that been a person? And where? Gathering back into a largely humanoid shape, he scrutinized the plants around him. An ant nest buried itself near the roots of a tree, insects whirring away busily. Pulling his form tighter together so as not to lose sapience, Kiornight crouched down, listening to the ants.

Intruders ... breaking ... seeking ... killing ...

Kiornight drew back sharply, flashing again momentarily. He hadn't conversed with them long enough to lose a significant number of fireflies, but it would be better to avoid it.

Stepping back, he looked up, squinting through the thick foliage. 

Viridis froze as he caught the humanoid swarm looking straight at him, desperately hoping that his cloak would provide sufficient camouflage. He slowed his metabolism as much as he dared.

Just jump it, what you do can have absolutely nothing to do with anything else here if you wish.

Ok. But I feel like I need a good name, reading some of the earlier stuff, people did funny names like puns and stuff.

Something seemed to bolt out a little of the sun in the canopy. Kiornight hissed softly. He didn't have much time, but if there was another person...

He pulled together, clicking wings calling out in an imitation of a voice. "Who's there?"

Viridis eased his metabolism back to normal levels, in case he had to flee, but remained silent.

Kiornight hesitated. There was a potential threat, but not one that wanted to reveal itself. That could mean they felt he was a threat, or it could mean they were trying to conceal how great a threat they were. They wouldn't be weak, surviving here so long. And willing to climb a bizarre plant at a moment's notice. 

He decided not to push the conversation, instead scattering deeper into the forest. "Strange," he muttered as he departed.

Viridis waited until the swarm was no longer visible before climbing down to ground level. His eyes scanned the canopy above him, and he spotted a bright red fruit sticking out amongst the foliage. He leaped up and grabbed it before devouring it quickly. 

He thought about the being he had seen; he hadn't heard of anything like it. Whatever it was, it was definitely far more than a mere swarm of mindless fireflies. 

He wondered if Kiornight knew of the pool, at the centre of the island. If he did, Viridis couldn't let him reach it first. Plucking another fruit and taking a bite, he accelerated his metabolism just slightly, and sprinted inland.

There's a pool of glowing green liquid (like a perpendicularity) a few kilometres inland

Awesome, thank you!

Kiornight flew towards the centre of the island, noting the chittering of insects and the roar of some distant creature he wasn't particularly keen on meeting. Caz had told him there would be something of value here; something powerful. He wasn't certain what form it would take, but Caz was usually worth listening to. Unless the "something" here was peace and quiet, which was looking increasingly unlikely by the minute.

He ground to a halt, hissing softly. A tangle of sundew - or another plant along those lines - rose in front of him, from the gritty earth to the darkened trees above. A mesh of branches blocked the majority of sunlight from above. It would slow him significantly, but it was better than passing through a plant that could destroy half his sentience in a matter of minutes.

Kiornight began to work his way upwards, through the dense canopy, hoping whoever had brought that boat was still behind.

Viridis took a different path from the swarm creature; it would take longer to reach the pool, but he didn't want to cross paths with the being until he arrived there. He brought his metabolism up to the absolute limit he could with the level of oxygen in the air around him. Peering through gaps in the canopy, he saw that the sun would set soon, which meant that the flora around him would begin sucking up oxygen.

Viridis halted when he heard a hiss - a hiss far, far louder than one should be. Before he had any time to react, a gargantuan snake burst from the undergrowth. The beast was over 15 metres long, and its head was covered in bony plates. 

Viridis yelped and dashed up the nearest tree. He had seen one of these before; Tyrannoserpens solus, he believed it was called. He breathed deeply, struggling to keep his heart rate under control as the creature slithered up to the base of his tree. 

It hissed once more, and then simply curled up beside the tree and stared at Viridis. Viridis sighed.

This place has some... interesting fauna. Tyrannoserpens isn't a real snake, but it was 'descended' from Titanoboa.

Chat gpt wont do much. Um basically, for the big arc and large story. 

Witherlord (his vessel is Malevolence authors by @NameIess)= really bad guy and we need to find a way to stop him, rebus (authored by @Through the Living Heir)  has a line and idea of how to stop him. This plan involves: the Iris, a mafia crime syndicate and the krusaders, the Iris calvery force; The Kimo labs, a laboratory run by Dax and became a part of Rebus empire; and an unnamed organization that Elinore and her crew are a part of. (All authored by yours truly)

I think thats pretty good. Heir hasnt had much time to write and nameless is gone..m idk where he went prolly having a life unlike us, anyways, this plot is stalled so we have probably way to many small plots branched off. Right now im trying to get Elinore and her crew back to Rebus and Rebyl. 

[NameIess]

The Witherlord returned to himself. His form was indistinct, a mass of darkness covering what had once been a green field of grass, tendrils of shadow spiraling outward, drifting in the cold wind. In his... distraction, the field had withered and decayed. As his consciousness strengthened, he felt the entirety of the planet, knew it had been destroyed during his slumber.

The Witherlord sighed. I was afraid this would happen. He thought. The curse of the Antagonist. He was now true Evil. He had the power and the will to dominate and destroy the Thread. And yet... could his Author handle the strain? In taking up this role, the man who had once been Malevolence had centralized the Thread around him. More dangerously, around his Author. This brought the danger of burning out, a danger his Author knew well and had seen in others. He'd taken precautions, refusing to split his presence, appointing a Dragon and attempting to work through servants. And yet...

I will need to be more careful. Malev-the Witherlord, thought. I must be pragmatic. I need more servants to empower, in order to share the burden of antagonizing the heroes of this Thread and working towards my grand plan. Fog has been as inactive as I... perhaps I should revoke her status and grant it to another, more deserving. Still, who can I trust? Even she is not fully trustworthy. Who else would agree with my goals enough to to put themselves in my power?

He turned from these thoughts and on to other matters. Events in the Thread had progressed, but nothing seemed overly worrying... Except a Plotblade that had gained sentience? Interesting. And he would need to do something about Inkwell. Yes, his plans must continue. He would bring this Thread to its knees.

With a surge of will, the Witherlord reformed his body. Darkness pulled inward, forming into the shape of a man covered in black flames, with glowing violet pits for eyes. He reached forward and pulled his Blade, Malevolence, from the ground before him. It was time to continue his work.

Virids was distracted from his predicament by a faint sound from one of the other branches of the tree. If he were to look for the source of the noise, he would see a woman wearing a black dress sitting on one of the other tree branches. Her feet kicked idly against the trunk of the tree, and she watched the sky above with a melancholy expression.

Verdance had to leave the Shard sadly, I don’t know if their characters were passed on.

The orb winked into existence next to the Witherlord. It had drifted in the Void for a time, exhausted after it had tried to open a way into Heaven.

Hey! I see you regained consciousness! The ball bounced eagerly. Is there a way I can help this time? I almost made a path into Heaven, but it seems my time with you has made me lean more Evil than Neutral.

Skylight wandered in the Woods. He had spent so long alone, he wondered who was left. “9/10? Was that your name? You there?”

Was anyone left? Did anyone care?

Did the Voice deserve to be in control?
