"It's a surprise really cool sword. That doesn't convey it fully. Think Nightblood, but not Nightblood."

[Condensation she/her]

"Nightblood is that attempt at creating a Shardblade that eats souls, right?"

[Enter a username]

"Basically. This sword doesn't do that, though."

[Condensation she/her]

"Okay." Herate starts walking, covering ground quickly.

*music note* "On Wednesdays we wear pink!" *music note*

Yes, I am wearing pink today, and that is a quote from Mean Girls the musical, and technically Mean Girls the movie, but not the music notes. It's kind of a sketchy show, but....eh. You should all definitely listen to the song "Revenge Party," though.

Queen nods briskly, then follows Herate and Enter.

[Channelknight Fadran]

Fadran follows them too, wondering who he should conversation with.

[Negative_Null They/Them]

Vale leads his party into a deserted alley and opens a new portal.

"Through here, quickly"

You either mean "who he should start a conversation with" or "who he should converse with."

Queen voices a question to no one in particular. "How are you guys today?"

I'm assuming you are moving towards Elendel, when you get about halfway there let me know.

"You know," Fadran replies, "going on a hike across the ocean to stop the people attacking Enter's base. The norm."

Queen nods. "Yeah, seems like we're constantly doing stuff like this. Hopefully, everything will be alright when we get there. Also, hopefully we'll be able to rescue The Fox and everyone else that Winter stole."

We're actually heading away from Elendel (Or, if we're in the southern Roughs, we'll pass by it and keep going).

I'll assume Jeffrey and Nya go through too

@xinoehp512

You come out into a new world, bright with life. The jungle around you has some colors you're not used to, but it still seems normal enough. 

Vale hops through. "All right, now we're in a world called Siren. This might be a bit more dangerous. Let's get moving." He points out some footprints of something very large with some mean looking claws.

[Vapor she/her]

"Siren? I haven't heard of here, and I've heard a lot of things, some I probably shouldn't have heard," Vapor says and heads away from the footprints.

[Negative_Null They/Them]

"I wouldn't expect you to have heard of here. We're about 3 and a half quantum leaps away from the Cosmere. I managed to get a shortcut here from Syderon. This way should do" 

Vale follows Vapor away from the footprints.

Hey, guys! I won’t be able to be on this thread, sorry. It takes too long to red all of this and post and I have a lot of school, so I just won’t be able to catch up.

[Scarletfox]

The Little Fox was laying on a blanket in a field of daisies, staring at the stars that dotted the sky. She felt something rustle to her left, it was her brother. "Isn't it interesting how significant we think we are, how significant we think our lives are, but we're nothing more than speck in the universe?" Her brother said, voicing his thoughts.

"Well," The Little Fox responded not taking her eyes off the constellations, "I think that even if we feel insignificant compared to material things, we can find our significance by impacting immaterial things, like the souls of people."

"Oh, Little Fox," her brother said sitting up and presenting a heart-warming smile to her. "You're so smart. You're going to change the world someday."

The scenery suddenly changed. The Little Fox and her brother were rummaging through dumpsters together. "Hey, brother, look at this!" The Little Fox said, causing her brother, who was on look out, to hurry over. "I think someone doesn't like the Broncos team! There's, like, forty super bowl t-shirts in here!"

He grinned, "Well their trash is our treasure! Here, you take look out, and I'll get these shirts." After heaving the bag of shirts and other little trinkets he and the Little Fox found, she and her brother walked out of the alley and down the street. 

"Why do we have to take turns looking out, brother? They threw it away because they didn't want it, why would they have a problem with us taking it?" The Little Fox repeated the argument she had made time and time again.

He sighed. "Little Fox, like I say every time. We are street-dwellers. We must assume the best, but prepare for the worst."

The scenery changed again. She and her brother were fishing, sitting with their legs hanging off the dock into the water. "Hand me another piece of that hotdog, brother, another fish stole my bait!" She raised her hands in frustration, accidentally chucking her fishing pole into the lake. She gave her brother an embarrassed smile. "oops."

Her brother laughed heartily, shaking his head and muttering "Oh, little fox," before leaping into the water fully clothed, and retrieving her fishing pole. 

The Little Fox was laughing too, but when he pulled himself out of the lake, she hastily put on an annoyed mask, and said, "Brother! Why did you do that?? You splashed water all over me!" 

"Oh, you're welcome! I should've just left your whole fishing pole to be carried off by the fish! You think that splashed you? I'll show you!" Her brother laughed as he set down the fishing pole, and came running at her at full speed.

"Oh, dear!" The Little Fox squeaked and tried to get out of the way to no prevail as her brother snatched her up, and sent her flying off the end of the dock into the water. 

The Little Fox came blundering to the surface screeching "BROTHER!", but she couldn't keep the smile off her face this time.

The smile quickly melted as the Little Fox realized it was darker than before. Were those storm clouds? Those weren't there before. Panic suddenly surged through the little fox as she remembered something. She started swimming, frantically trying to get back to the dock, but she couldn't seem to get any closer! Her brother was still standing on the dock smiling, as if he didn't see the look on her face or the clouds above. "Brother!" She screamed. "Run away, it isn't safe!"

He cocked his head. "What are you talking about, Little Fox?" He laughed. "It's just you and I, although we probably shouldn't be swimming if a storm is coming." A golden figure with long hair materialized behind her brother, a jewel encrusted knife in his hand, and a sick smile on his face. 

"No, brother!!" She screamed, but it was too late. There were two thumps as her brother's body and head hit the ground. The man turned his ageless eyes on her. "You can come out now, Little Fox."

Little Fox jerked herself up, and screamed. She was breathing heavily, her heart pounding, where was he? Where was Nathrangking? Was he coming after her next? She frantically searched the room with her eyes, but only saw Korin. She slowed her breathing. "It was only a dream" She whispered to herself. "It was only a dream." She closed her eyes and laid back down. "It was only a dream." She whispered again, but did not get any more sleep.

[Nathrangking he/him]

Circestran's emerald eyes bore into Nathrangking. They curse him though there is something else in them as well. Something living beneath the surface rises up and she sighs. Her hatred slows as the glare softens. "How long has it been since you visited my prison? I loved you you know. Despite everything. No matter what I had done. Nothing changed our love. 2 millennia means much to ageless immortals such as us. What happened to you? Where is your fire? Even when you dragged me before the ancient gods your fire was there. Now look at you. That fire has gone out. You must not become me. Promise that you won't change. Swear it or I shall destroy you."

My heart clenches as I look over at the woman whom I had loved. The iron in my hear does not melt even if I allow emotion to show in my posture. I loved her once. She betrayed everything, but now I need her. Ancient gods preserve me that I do not so quickly have to throw her back into that place. Her once royal garments are little more than rags held together by her power. Rich orange and silver are dingy and tarnished in way that make me flinch as memories come storming back. One thought though banishes all of that. My emotion drains away. "I need your help. We have little time. She knows that I'm here and she will try and stop me. I need the huntress of the damned once again."

Her eyes fill with tears. "I cannot. Once I would have died for you. Now you ask that I become again on this plane that which had me thrown into that place. Ask me anything else. Please."

"I...."

Nathrangking is interrupted by a pillar of amethyst fire which bursts from the ground several yards away from where he and Circestran stand. A smug scarlet haired youth emerges and banishes the flames. His tunic and breeches are as blood. His eyes are iron. His skin is like burnished bronze. His voice is like glass shattering in an inferno. "Mother wishes to speak to you. I have orders to kill the monster and bring you to her. Do the right thing and listen."

I release my hold on Circestran. "Mita, go back to your mother and remind her that if the council wishes to call me to task they may. She has no power to stop me. None of you do. My wife and I are going and you are going to leave my realm." Bolts of lightning crash down around the youth at my command splintering the ground. I look at my wife for  a moment and allow the slightest hint of the love that I felt for her resurface. When I return my gaze to Mita his eyes are a bit wide, but he has not moved to leave.

Thanks! Yeah, the soul eating knife kinda messed her up.

There's another big hint to what she thinks about her brother now, if you want to figure it out

I'm going to put it here

Are you sure???

It has to do with something her sister used to say

The Little Fox laid there with her eyes closed. She was not sleeping. She could not sleep any longer. It would bring back the nightmares. With her eyes still closed, she reached down and grabbed one of her knives from her hoodie pocket, twirling it around her fingers. That calmed her down. She let her eyes open as the knife slowed it's course. She put it back in her pocket, grabbing something else instead. A pad of papers with little drawings of foxes on them. She cocked her head. She didn't remember these very well. The little fox closed her eyes again and concentrated, trying to remember why she had these little slips of paper. 

For a split second, the Fox was overcome with horror, and images of a man standing over a girl with a gun flashed through her brain, but they were gone as soon as they came, the memory of them fading into nothingness. 

Hm, the Little Fox must have stolen the papers or something. She placed them back into her pocket.

[Nathrangking he/him]

My love is replaced by rage as Mita stands frozen in place. It fills my voice with fire and I begin to shout in the language of creation. "Begone!! May your fires consume you!! Leave this place!!" Violent flames ignite and Mita starts to shout. His body fades away as the realm pushes him out. I turn to Circestran and find her mouth hanging open. When our eyes meet she begins to laugh. The sound is sweeter than a honeyed river. I see tears begin to pour from her eyes as she is bent over in hysterics. 

She stops when she does not see me laughing. She is smiling broadly. "There is that fire of yours. You defended my honor by igniting a god who won't actually burn. That is why I love you so much you always had a temper." Her face becomes serious again lines of worry appear. "You know that you just declared war on her. She will destroy you."

I look at her and I struggle not to cry. "How I have missed you my queen of light. Once he put's himself out. It will be war, but you and I have unfinished business. Let us go from this place." I will the realm to bend around us and we are gone staring into each others eyes as the reality is rewoven.
