"There is no current bearer. The mantle of the Witherlord has been banished."

Most withergeists are non-corporeal, made entirely of chaotic-dark energy. Mordite in gaseous form, essentially.

And you haven't been able to Ennul the poison?

There was a knock at the door.

"I tried. It just made it worse. Same with Narration."

"BACON!" Bat beamed. "Absolutely! Come in!" 

The caravan lady waited. 

Lady Bug narrated the amount into his pockets. 

"Ah! Here we are!" He hands it over. "I... think it would be best for everyone concerned if I stay away from the goods."

"You think?" she snapped. "Greta will find somewhere for you to be."

A woman sighed and stepped forward. "Come on. We have several other, emptier wagons."

"Right." He follows, visiblely shying away from stacks of whirling gears and glowing lights.

Greta led him to a parlor like room  with no technology. "Wait here. The tea should be almost ready."

Leopold perks up. "Tea, you say? What kind?"

*Leopold proceeds to go into a half hour rant about the merits of various tea blends. This part of the story has been removed due to obscene amounts of boredom.*

Honestly, Greta didn't mind. She poured the tea and sipped hers while she watched out the window and let his droning wash over her.

Leopold reaches for the teapot to pour himself another cup. A ring at the bottom starts glowing a violent blue. "You're kidding! Even the teapot is self heating!" He slumps back in the chair. "I hate technology..."

idk. My brain is tired/broken right now. I'm stuck on exploding teapots ig.

She frowned. "I didn't know that was there. How long has that been there? Could a sworn it was regular..." She sighed and poured him another cup. "I'll go get another pot to transfer it."

Sry, I'm having trouble formulating an actual plot right now. I got one hour of sleep last night.

Tam jolted upright, suddenly very awake.

When she realized there wasn't any danger, she groaned and laid back down on the ground.

"Morning," she mumbled.

Bat came over to her. "You feeling okay?" He pulled three worms out of his bag. "Here, have these with your food."

Sagerian writes that down. “What do you mean by nonorganic containment? Can you convert plants?” 
 @SpiritOfWrath

Yes, but Wrath was going to school at the time.

I also needed time to deliberate it.

"Plants... no. Thankfully, otherwise we'd have a very significant problem..."

She looked up at him, bleary-eyed.

"Bat . . . I really don't think those are doing helping at all. And yeah, I'm still cold. A little better . . . but still cold."

"Maybe they're not," he said. "But... maybe they are. It's good that you're feeling a little better." He sat down next to her. "You don't have to take them, I guess." He handed her the plate of food Cricket had handed her.

Rebus nods. “Ah. And what effects would claiming it have?” 
If I have a seed piece of Morditite, do you think it can precipitate more if I touch withergeists with it? 

"Its power would be at your disposal."

It's not in the nature of chaotic darkness to precipitate naturally.

Lady Bug narrated the amount into his pockets. 

"Ah, so you've heard of me!... or do I know you?" Bacon looked at Bat speculatively. "Hmm... I do know you, don't I? Oh dear."

"I tried. It just made it worse. Same with Narration."

What? Is it of some sort of chaotic-dark essence?

Ah. I’m just bored right now, and I saw all the people I wanted to talk to go online and then leave again. 
Sagerian nods. “Animals?”

@xinoehp512 

Rebus nods skeptically. “What does the power of chaotic darkness allow me to do?” 
Ok. Nameless’s trial mentioned balancium. Does that canonically work?

"I was kind of a tagalong," he admitted. "But I remember you being nice. So please don't explode me-- but come in and take a look at Cricket and Tam!"

"Heck yea, animals, but also... do you know how bad weeds can get without my influence?"

She took a few bites.

The Notblades buzz angrily at Bacon. They don't like Narrators much, despite being a creation of one.

Or perhaps they remembered Bacon from back when they made up a now powerless threat.

 

 

 Yes, but... at least people look into other sciences. With the mech tech, it's just "tech... Must be a mech!"

Sagerian nods. “Yes, I have. Immortal weeds would be problematic, now that I consider it.”
