"...Okay then." Insa. ...She's not going to be happy. He took the chip, nodded towards the well-dressed god, then stepped through the gateway.
-
That was...easy. "How will I contact you once I have the information?"
-
God of Jealousy...not sure I like the sound of that. Have you heard of him? How far is his reach? I know of him, but only tangentially. I don't know if he is dangerous or not, or how trustworthy he is. I would advise caution in any case. Noted. "Well then, Zelos. If you help me get home, I'll get you the details of this..."deal." I have no love or trust for Saar...as long as you promise not to harm me or those with me, I'll hold up my end."

The Funeral of Edema Rue('s Being on the Shard)
The Bookwyrm replied to Through the Living Hope's topic in Roleplaying
Bookwyrm just stood there for a moment. "...Okay then..." -
"It's appreciated, but I asked who you are, not what your name is."
-
Mysterious Temple Bookwyrm's eyes narrowed. ...Saar. "...Can I ask who you are, then?"

The Funeral of Edema Rue('s Being on the Shard)
The Bookwyrm replied to Through the Living Hope's topic in Roleplaying
Bookwyrm walked in, wearing an immaculate suit; a different one he'd worn to the trial, because that one was still getting the Root cleaned out of it. "...What happened to the Funeral?" he asked. -
Ah yes, because Aon Ashe... I approve of the reference! That's super cool!
-
Mysterious Temple Bookwyrm frowned. "And what's that?"
-
Mysterious Temple "...Can you help me?"
-
"I wish I knew. All I know is this temple is the only interesting thing I could find, so...here I am. I was hoping to find a way out, because for some reason I can't leave."
-
Tinker smiled and gently patted Red's head.
-
Mysterious Temple "I mean, originally. But...apparently I haven't been there or seen anyone from there in months, and I have no memory of what I was doing during those months."
-
Mysterious Temple "I...what?" Bookwyrm grew immensely confused. "I have no idea what you're talking about."
-
Mysterious Temple "...Bookwyrm."
-
Mysterious Temple Hesitantly, Bookwyrm followed him, making his way to the top.
-
Mysterious Temple Bookwyrm jumped slightly and looked around. "Explaining who I am might take a while," he said. "And unfortunately I have no memory of how I got here, in this world. This building has been the only thing of note besides miles and miles of grasslands, so..."
-
Mysterious Temple Finally...something besides grass. Bookwyrm cautiously approached the temple, wary of the silence surrounding him. When nothing happened, he started climbing the steps to the top.

As far as I understand it, when someone with great healing capacity is beheaded, they just grow a new head. I don't know if we ever see it happen canonically in the Cosmere, but (Dragonsteel Prime spoilers): In Cosmere mechanics, it seems like you regrow your body from the largest remaining piece, rather than your head. I'm not entirely sure why this is the case, but it is. Other people can probably explain it better than me, but I'm guessing it has something to do with cognitive and spiritual aspects of a person. (i.e. you regrow from your "core", or something...) So I think Kelsier was completely telling the truth, but the metalminds the Lord Ruler was using to heal were still on his arms or torso. People tried to behead him, and he just grew a new head.

??? Bookwyrm continued to walk. For hours. No sign of life beyond the endless grass. This isn't good. Astwyr suddenly spoke in his mind. I found something. "What?" I'm...not completely sure. But there's a source of power. Far to your left. Head there. "Finally. Something interesting." After a few more minutes of walking, a mysterious structure appeared on the horizon. @InfiniteInsanity

??? As far as Bookwyrm could tell, the grassland extended for miles in every direction. If there were any other structures such as the stone pedestal he'd woken up on, he hadn't found any. He couldn't tell if he was on a planet or some untethered dimension. The sun had only very slightly moved in the sky, but that didn't necessarily indicate either scenario. Strangely, he couldn't access other dimensions from where he was, which was...inconvenient. "Any ideas?" I'm as limited as you are, here. Bookwyrm nodded. "Just let me know if you find anything." ...How am I going to get out of here?

Hello, my lovely peoples.
To whom it may concern, and that is probably all of you,
I HAVE MY MISSION CALL
So,
Without further ado,
I would like to let you all know,
That I,
Have been called,
To serve,
In the California Arcadia Mission, Spanish speaking.
....This means I need to learn Spanish because I was not expecting this.
But I'm super excited.
I report to Home MTC on February 3rd, so you'll have me for a few more months. But this is a really important moment for me, and you all deserve to know as well.

What are you playing right now?
The Bookwyrm replied to Link Von Kelsier Harvey's topic in Entertainment Discussion
...Well, not right now, and not for two years because I'm going to leave on my mission soon, but first thing I'm playing when I get back is this... https://www.nintendo.com/us/store/products/xenoblade-chronicles-x-definitive-edition-121320/ -
I have a tangential interest to this, but I'm kind of concerned about what it would all look like. What would the story be? How would we make it all work logistically?
