Wandering Gods

[Channelknight Fadran]

The Surges... they are yours to control.

The rushing waves surged towards her, crashing over each other in the orderly chaos of a flash flood. She stood steadfast against them, holding out her arm. She Soulcast the river, and a wave of mist crashed through. Fog filled the chasm as she continued transforming the oncoming flood. A river of mist.

The pain vanished as she went awash with Stormlight.

The stormwall hit.

"Journey before destination."

[Tacitus]

As Ben crouched under a rock in the deadly rains that came down, he saw mist flow out of the chasm. A lot of mist.

"I have the strangest feeling something decidedly epic just happened."

[Chasmgoat he/him]

it was a sudden whip cracking against his body. It was the force of a thousand giants. It pushed him like a child before a car. He was helpless.

The storm lifted him and the dust and pebbles pierced his skin. It was the worst experience he had ever, well, experienced.  this is the end. he thought to himself while he passed out.

Alena shot out of the fog, trailing mist and stormlight behind her. The blue glow was the brightest thing to be seen in the Highstorm. She grabbed Lorem's limp form, pulling it with her towards the rock that Ben had taken cover behind.

She dropped the body, then pressed her hand to the ground. Walls of stone shot upwards, surrounding everyone and protecting them from the storms. A roof covered the top, and soon the only trace of the Highstorm was the roar of rains on the shelter and the dripping forms of all the people inside.

As Alena healed Lorem's cuts, she summoned streams of light that danced about their little shelter. Her breathing was heavy, and stormlight puffed out from her lips.

Dang you. I was going to save him.

"I... I... don't..." She shook her head, breathing heavily. "Geeze, I'm really tired all of a sudden."

[Tacitus]

Ben laughed.

"I would be amazed if you weren't, after that!"

so, Lorem will be unconscious for a while since I have to go... Also, I am thinking my character should get an honorblade/shardblade...

All surges, infinite stormlight is scudding terrifying.

"Huh. I could of sworn that storm was miles away- it really sneaked up on us, eh?"

He sat in silence for a moment, soaking wet from the storm.

"Say, am I more glowy than before?"

[Tacitus]

"Maybe some of her glowiness went into you?"

"What do you... what?"

[Tacitus]

"Evidently, Glowiness is how we're measuring magic."

Ben frowned

"I think. That, or he's hallucinating."

"I'm gonna go with the second option, because measuring luminosity is a pain."

"My glowiness is different from her glowiness. And is it just me, or is my hair lighter than it was before?"

"What do you... what?"

"Look!" He holds out his arm. "I look like a nightlight that hasn't been plugged in properly. And... My tan is gone? What on earth?"

"You look like an elf."

[Tacitus]

"Now I'm confused about the nightlight thing, but does look a little weird."

I'm also gonna have to go in a little bit.

"When we do get to civilization, it might be a little difficult to explain that to people."

"Less when we get to civilization, and more if we get to civilization."

[Tacitus]

"That's... Fair."

"But besides that, what are we going to do while the storm dies down? "

"Are we still even on earth anymore? What.if no one lives here and we're the only ones on the planet? Like, did you see those strange plants?"

"I didn't see them. I felt them. And they didn't feel good."

[Tacitus]

"Well... I'm going to not assume that, because of the likelihood that it's correct."

Ben sat down.

"I am going to sleep! Wake me when you're leaving without me!"

Oops, I stopped paying attention by accident. Just assume I was there. Not like I really could have changed anything, cause until Young figures out this whole soulstamp business, he can't hold a candle to infinite surges, infinite metals, infinite breaths, etc.

Young had stopped paying attention to the others. Instead, he was looking at the plateaus. Why was the ground shattered like that? What had happened here? Then, like a tsunami, it hit. He was temporarily dazed as his brain suddenly had a massive amount of information stuffed into it, too much for him to handle at once. Upon re-evaluation, he could describe what had happened here. He had found his power.

Now, why would he need to know all this?
