I and my compatriots wish to converse with you. We believe that our interests may align, and that our efforts will be ameliorated by our collaboration. To be specific, we believe we could avert the impending conquest of your homeland. Keep this gemstone on you at all times. It will protect you from enthrallment and keep your secrets safe from blue holed. If you wish to converse, tap this gemstone three times. Fadran takes the item out of his pocket, frowning in thought as he examines it. Interesting. Icona says. Fadran taps the gemstone three times, and simply says, new gemstone, who dis? 16 minutes ago, The Awakened Salad said: @Emi @Truthless of Shinovar A splitting pain shot up through her skull.

The world spun and spun until it went too fast and then there was nothing left but darkness. Quote What a way to end! We will miss you, salad! 1 hour ago, Spren of Kindness said: "I think so." Kindness nods firmly. "Yes." Quote Aight, time to godmod. Fadran examines the name written on the paper, then Forges a Spirit Bond. "Hmm... interesting." Fadran says, feeling around the Spirit. "I've never encountered something quite like it. I suppose that's because I've never investigated a spren's Spirit." He searched it, but didn't find much. It was... lacking. Small. "You have a Spirit that hasn't been fully developed yet. Your time in the Physical Realm hasn't given you enough experiences to make the same size Spirit as the other's I've investigated." As he continues searching, he finds... emptyness. A plain that was once filled but isn't any longer. "It isn't... small, exactly. You've just left a part of yourself behind. Like all spren, entering the physical realm cost you your sentience. Half of your Spirit is in the Cognitive realm, and the other half is what you've experienced here in the Physical realm. In fact... I bet that if we ever traveled to Shadesmar, we could find that missing piece." Fadran began exploring the emptyness, and there was a lot of it. A lot of missing pieces that they could find. "And I'm not sure, but... if we could somehow combine both halves, your Spirit would be larger than most." Fadran nods to himself. "Larger than most by a significant margin, probably." Fadran pockets Kindness's name. "So after we're done all this... you want to try finding that missing half? We'd be running into otherworldly threats all the time, of course, but at least in Shadesmar, we'd know how to deal with them." How many new discoveries are there to be made about Spiritcalling? Fadran wonders to himself. Fixing broken minds, finding missing pieces... there's so much I don't know. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once they have stopped and Santonio exits he turns and walks up to Fadran. "Whatever is about to happen will not end well. I can feel the coming of battle. It washes over me as the ocean waves. Stay close to the others. It may be necessary for me to hold the enemy back. If it comes to that you must rally them and escape." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xinoehp512 Posted July 15, 2020 Report Share Posted July 15, 2020 (edited) The gemstone flashes- once, twice, thrice - and suddenly, Fadran is somewhere else. A bland, cubical room with empty white walls. In front of him stand three holed- one yellow, one purple, and one blue. The blue steps forward. Strangely, his eyes are closed. "Greetings, Fadran," he says. "I see you have accepted our offer to converse." Quote He's not actually anywhere else, by the way- it's just a mental illusion. @Channelknight Fadran Edited July 15, 2020 by xinoehp512 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
