  1. As if to answer his question, a huge mossy metal monster emerged from the ground. Bigger than a school bus, its smooth mossy surface made it look exactly like the surrounding hills. On cue, all of the other hills rumbled to life, revealing themselves to be giant metal boulders with legs. "Luminite golems." The Rightful One said. "The portal's closed. Our only hope is to get into the trees. The golems will shoot us out of the air if we try to fly."
  2. "What kind of self defense system?" Let it suffice to say that we need to leave as soon as possible. Ranryu saw the light. The Rightful One stirred within her. What was that presence? She put a hand to her head, rubbing back a migraine. "Later. The Rightful One is yelling at me. She says we need to leave now or we're all gonna die." As she said this, the portal disappeared.
  3. The confusion intensifies. YoU WiLl Be HiT bY a FaLlInG PiAnO. tHeRe Is No AvOiDiNg It.
  4. The Rightful One's explanation was interrupted by a huge THUMP, and a strange low hum in the air. Oh no. "What was that?" Ranryu sensed something shift in the peaceful landscape, moss becoming more mold-like, trees losing their healthy color. There are intruders in The Mound. Three, I think. This realm's self defense systems are still online... we need to leave.
  5. You take it and give it to Ranryu, then use telekinesis to ward off the pack of rabid dogs.
  6. My people were not without their shortcomings. In the end, I think it was our hubris that destroyed us.
  7. You fall unconscious and dream about the sandwich that is never to be yours.
  8. You watch in horror as Ranryu picks up the sandwich and adds extra pickles to it.
  9. You switch to second person, then give the sandwich to Ranryu.
  10. "Talk to me. Why is your homeworld covered in bones? What happened here?" It's not something we speak of lightly... as you should know. "I should know? What do you mean?"
  11. *Offended that I'm not included in everyone* You see, I am not a person*, and therefore, I am not playing the game. I win. *Ask @That1Cellist for details and verification. See first line for evidence.
  12. So, as soon as I got home from school, I heard a loud crashing noise. I went downstairs and discovered that my five year old brother had knocked over a chair, which fell on top of a glass picture frame. Somehow, my homeschooled sister, who was sitting right next to the mess, didn't notice it. Now the carpet is full of glass that get to vacuum up before my parents come home and find it. Joy.

      I love them... but yeah. 

  13. Hi! A little bit late to the party, it seems. I play piano, flute, and a tad bit of saxophone. Technically, I can play guitar and ukulele, but not with any real skill.
  14. Ranryu made her way along the mossy green hills, enjoying the silent landscape. She could't help but feel a bit guilty, though. "What about TAAron? We might've been able to help him." His malady is different from yours. Ultimately, he will benefit from this. It's in the clinic's best interest to prevent you from going insane and destroying everything. Besides, I'm confident the others will be able to help him. "Touché. I'll see this through." As Ranryu rounded a bend in her improvised path, some strange mossy lumps on the ground caught her attention. She stopped to examine them. Strange white and tan rocks, mostly covered in the verdant moss. As she looked around, she realized that the hills were littered with these rocks. Realization sent a chill down her spine. Not rocks. Bones. Everywhere.
  15. Hmmm... It seems another has made contact... Do you have the report on the Rightful One? No... it seems she has fled offworld. I do not believe that the two incidents are connected in any way. Perhaps this new one is just a coincidence.
  16. After an unsettling feeling of vertigo, Ranryu emerged from the portal. Bright white light greeted her. Blinking, she stepped onto lush green moss. "Where are we?" A small dimension called The Mound. My homeworld. "I thought the Aos Si lived in a cognitive dimension." Before we died, this was our realm. It is unwelcoming to the undead. The magic that binds you allows us to surpass its power. Now go south. As Ranryu walked, she marveled at the beauty of The Mound. Huge trees towered hundreds of feet above her head, their trunks so far apart it barely felt like a forest. Vivid moss covered every inch of the rolling hills. Despite the abundance of greenery, the only sound was the far-off whispering of giant leaves. There wasn't an animal, insect, or person in sight. "What happened here?"
  17. Ranryu smiled at the happy couple. Suddenly, she looked concerned. "Congratulations! Now excuse me, I really need to go." She hurried back to her room. "I thought you were gone for good." I told you I would return. But there's no time for this. I found a solution... Or a clue to a solution, at least. "What is it?" Ranryu's vision was directed to a huge, swirling tear in the fabric of the clinic's dimensional boundaries. Maybe it was a good thing we never repaired this tear. Come now, we need to leave before someone else discovers this. Ranryu stepped into the portal... and out of the clinic.
  18. Ranryu held up a pair of glowing blue gemstones. "These are the Tide Jewels. One controls the flowing tide, and the other controls the ebbing tide. I don't think the clinic has an ocean, but these will help if you ever stumble across one."
  19. Yup. My siblings go from falling asleep on their feet to crazy, "watch me jump over a pile of my monster trucks and onto my brother" mode. They also like getting our Alexa to play weird music at maximum volume at 11:00 pm.
  20. Ranryu fingered the wedding gifts that sat at the bottom of her pocket. The Tide jewels, the kanju and the manju, glowed faintly with the power of dragons long lost. If nothing else, the gems would make pretty paperweights. As she thought about it, Ranryu realized there wasn't really a nearby ocean for the jewels to influence. Idiot.
  21. Back before he could walk, his (slightly) older brother messed with the roomba and ended up breaking it so it can't actually vacuum anything. To prevent similar things from happening in the future, I may have... told him that the roomba is a monster bent on sucking him up. Two years later, he still believes it. He also is convinced that jumping on the couch is worthy of the death penalty. I'm an excellent big sister.
  22. It sounds like my siblings would get along with your siblings, although it seems like mine are a bit more violent/monster truck obsessed. My brother is deathly afraid of our old broken down roomba, but he insists on turning it on and watching it bang into our furniture.
