    Near the Rampart of the Southern Cliffs The Kaos found a loophole. It pushed him to corrupt Insa again. To bring her to the darkness, away from the blinding light and deadly heat. Safe. No need to kill her. Bring her to the winning side. Be with her. He wavered, his hand slowly gathering the shadowy energy. N-no....part of him thought. This....isn't what she wants... Not what I want. Insa's Mind There is little time. Send your lightning. Let it's Light pierce the veil of his mind. He has enough control to let you in. Don't worry about hurting him.

    Near the Rampart of the Southern Cliffs Bookwyrm shifted space to appear in front of Insa. He delved into his memory. Intent was shrouded in shadow...Kaos pushed him to attack, to kill the enemy. But he resisted. The Gift the mysterious voice had talked about...it was manifesting. And, perhaps, there was the slightest hesitation within Kaos itself... Perhaps you shouldn't have chosen one who understood love to be your avatar, if you wanted those she corrupted to be able to kill those they love, he thought wryly. "Calano needed me," Bookwyrm managed to say, his voice becoming his own again for a brief moment. He couldn't move. He couldn't turn and unleash the power of worlds on those who would hurt his friends. He couldn't purge the wretched disorder from his own soul. But he could talk. "Emma, in the Mysterious Forest, was closing in on his position. I needed to distract her. Find a way to let him find what he needed to." Bookwyrm looked to the sky, towards the source of brightly shining energy in the distance. "And he did..." Bookwyrm looked into Insa's eyes. "Don't let me hurt you. I don't care what it does to me, you need to win." Insa's Mind Get ready.

    Dreamscape of the Final Battle Bookwyrm nodded, his calm posture belying the turmoil within him. Then he vanished. The Rampart Bookwyrm appeared at the top of the southern cliff, standing atop the fortification Emma - Kaos - had created. At the foot of the cliff stood a flood of soldiers. Some humanoid, others more reptilian, dragonlike. Kaos's army. Ironic, part of him thought, that a being called "chaos" would have the capacity to create... He stood, thinking for a moment. Then he waved his hand, and the army vanished. Back into whatever void Kaos had drawn them from. Let them be used somewhere else. This is my fight. And so, he stood, and waited for whomever would come next. He held his Sword of Many Forms at his side. He could feel it's inner turmoil, the corruption having spread to it's soul as well. The other ones...the ones in his mind. They cried out even as he did. His spren, vanished into some other plane, fighting the corruption of the great being, the bond being unnaturally sustained as Oaths became twisted against the will of the one who spoke them. How did I let this happen? What am I doing? And through it all, the being called Kaos never let him waver. Please...I'm not me anymore... Someone help me. @InfiniteInsanity

    We also know that color in and of itself is important in the Cosmere. It's a component in Awakening, and Brandon has said at some point that in the end it's color that differentiates polestones on Roshar. So perhaps the fact that those killed by her Shardblade loose color is playing on that, somehow.

    ...I was writing some worldbuilding notes but it turned out like an advertisement for a military spacecraft...

    Spoiler

    One of WHIM’s latest technological developments is the Wyvern-class Starfighter, named after a highly adaptive apex predator on the planet Wahatan. It relies heavily on Starshaping technologies, being propelled solely by gravity drives and utilizing high tech force dampeners and redirectors to effectively null g-forces.

    Highly modular and customizable, the Wyvern consists of a spherical cockpit that forms the core of the craft. The cockpit is specially designed using special Starshaping technology to give the pilot a 360 view around them, gathering electromagnetic and gravitational data and displaying it on the screen that covers the entire interior surface of the cockpit. Other holographic displays provide other information. The cockpit also has a hovering control seat capable of rotating 360 degrees along three axes within the cockpit, giving the pilot free view and access around the spacecraft. The cockpit is equipped with advanced life support systems that can keep pilots alive for long periods of time.

    Attached to the cockpit exterior is a specialized chassis to which any number of modular components can be added - weapons, engines, surveillance instruments, et cetera. Most customizations of the Wyvern have large metal portions capable of folding into a high number of formations for vacuum combat, though oftentimes an atmospheric setting is also added to the loadout. The fact that the Wyvern can fold itself into a high number of shapes and formations, and the fact that the cockpit is spherical , eliminate the concept of a “front” and “back” to the spacecraft, making it a formidable and adaptable force in vacuum combat and maneuvering. 

    (WHIM is the Worlds of Humanity Interstellar Military.)

      ...are you aware that a wyvern is a thing in star wars? i think?

      A Wyvern is just a kind of fantasy creature, I thought. Preliminary explorers on the planet found the organism and gave it that name, then the spacecraft was later named after the organism.

      Might change the name later, though.

    Quite contrary, I'm just a normal Sharder with humble opinions. And I am the bane of this thread's RP.

    Thaidakar, I agree. You're ruining perfectly good pineapple and perfectly good pizza.

    So, I just slept for three hours, and woke up at the time where all my younger siblings are getting ready to go to bed.

    And I'm still so tired.

    But I have to go in another exhausting trip tomorrow. For another three days.

    Wish me luck and don't explode anything while I'm gone.

    All right humans (I hope you're all humans, something has gone wrong if you aren't)

    I'm going to be slightly inactive for the next little while. I have two back to back camps this week, starting tomorrow morning. While I'll still have access to my phone, I doubt I'll have good enough internet to pop on here and do anything major.

    Then the week after that, I'll be back at home, so you'll see me then.

    Then the week after that, it's another camp thing, and so I'll be gone again.

    And then after that it's a family reunion. I should have access to the Shard, so you'll see me pop in occasionally, but I'll also be distracted.

    So yeah.

    @Channelknight Fadran, I know there are RPs that I am a part of, but if you need to move on without me just do it.

    I LOVE THAT BOOK
  21. The Bookwyrm
    Star Wars... I like Star Wars for the world. There's so much of it, and so many different people, and the appeal to the franchise is my mind is not any one story but the way all the stories weave together. Same reason I like the Cosmere, actually.
