The Honorable One

Somewhere, somehow, Konrad tripped over a stick.

"Ouch."

And died.

Sage and Altair randomly just die somehow, idk.

Hooray!

My sister and I have always thought that her dad is Gethen.

I understand that reference!

While I'm here:

I've been turning evil in Star Wars Jedi: Survivor.

Mr. Blue Sky is playing on repeat right now.

Ferring! Yes! I have powers again!

Time to wave all my big metal rods threateningly in public again!

Konrad saw the storm fast approaching. I wonder, he thought.

"Hey, Ede, d'ya think that's a highstorm?" he asked. "I could really do with some Stormlight."

Yes, Konrad, I believe that storm is highly Invested.

"Okay, great, I'm going there." Konrad set off towards the nearby highstorm. Before long, the stormwall was just a little ways off. When it was one hundred feet away, Konrad started moving backwards and inhaled sharply. The stormlight filled his body, leaving him invigorated.

Be careful, master!

Konrad smiled, and fell up through the air with the strength of a full lashing. Once he had cleared the trees, Konrad started flying back towards the center of the arena, towards the cornucopia, being careful to not get too far ahead of the storm that he would lose his Stormlight and fall, but not staying too close that he was hit by debris. One time, the stormwall did draw near and he was hit by a log, but Konrad recovered before hitting the ground and continued towards the cornucopia.

After a bit, Konrad decides he needs an actual weapon. He slowly sharpens a rock into a point, then cuts down a small vine hanging from a nearby tree. Konrad fastens the rock to the point of his stick, and continues through the jungle with his new spear.

The foliage is too dense to make anything out.

Konrad mutters something about "storming trees" and turns back, continuing to head the way he was before. "Keep an eye out for me, okay Ede?"

Yes, Konrad.

Unfortunately, it’s regular sand.

 

After some time, he hears a loud hissing from behind him.

Konrad spins around, swinging his stick as he turns.

He sees condensed water dripping down leaves, and there are plenty of fruits growing. It's impossible to tell which might be poisonous, however.

"Hmm." Konrad thinks. "What d'ya reckon, Ede? Think those are poisonous?"

The chances of them containing poison is very high.

"I suppose so. But still." Konrad pulled some fruit off of a tree. "Might not be." He didn't eat it yet, however. Just tucked it away for later. Konrad also picks up a thick stick he finds nearby and heads deeper into the jungle.

“Mm…” Corin shrugs. “You have other things. Power. Promises. Lies…twist them in my favor, and you’ll be amazed what I can do for you.”

Ok, all good.

Konrad headed into the jungle.

"Okay Ede, here's what we're gonna do," Konrad said to his highspren. "First, we need supplies. We won't last long without them. Stormlight is important too."

A sense of agreement filled him. The Hunger Games, Ede said. You'll never find a more wretched place of death and backstabbing.

Konrad walked through the jungle, searching for water, food, or any other supplies.

200 hours into BotW and like 90 into TotK, just found out lynels can teleport. I was testing how good they are at climbing and it turns out they don't need to, so that was scary.

I remember when that happened to me the first time. It was terrifying.

He sees no supplies, but the door opens easily. Inside are several tables, scattered about with cards and dice. A man with blacker than black hair stands behind the counter. “Welcome,” he says, “to The Casino. How may I help you?”

AHH, STUFF HAPPENED! I had to go to school. Are there too many people in the casinos for me to still be in one, or should I leave?

The tributes hear laughter as they enter the arena. It echoes for a long moment before fading into the stunningly colorful jungle that surrounds them on every side. It’s warm, and so humid that all the tributes immediately begin sweating. They have no metal minds, no weapons, nothing but themselves.

“Welcome,” a voice says, “to our first ever Commemorative Hunger Games! Each of our so-called “tributes” has volunteered and is ready to risk death for the possibility of gold and glory!”

In the center, instead of a traditional cornucopia, there sits a single story building. It’s black on every side, and it glitters with what can only be inlaid silver. Each of its four sides has a single door. Another spout of laughter begins, and this time they can tell it’s coming from within.

Everyone except for @TheRavenHasLanded, @Wierdo, @The Honorable One, @Unintelligenius, and @Lotus Blossom feels weakened, as if they can’t quite reach their power. Maybe they could, if they pushed, but it would be very draining. 

In the Gamemaker Headquarters, Gavin was sitting on a couch near his adopted parents. He was smiling pleasantly, though perhaps he watched the screen just a tad too eagerly. Paint was splattered across his hands, which he was absentmindedly scratching away.

Alderic stood quietly in a militaristic posture, hands held behind his back. His face was solemn as he watched the screen.

Cosette gripped the armrests of her chair tightly, clenching her strong, yet delicate hands on the wood. "Et voilà, le bain de sang commence..." She whispered, staring at the screen. "Et quel spectacle ce sera..." She gave a grim smile and settled back in her chair. Emeric sits beside her, his leg is crossed over the other and he is staring silently at Cosette. He then looks up at the screen and nods. 

Rekker smiles at Epiphany and then presses one of the many buttons laid out before him, notepad in hand. Gavin glanced at Rekker, frowned in confusion, then looked back at the screen. This wasn't something he wanted to miss.

“And now,” the voice continued. “Let’s begin! Ten.

Nine.

Eight.

Seven.

Six.

Five.

Four.

Three.

Two.

One.”

There’s a gong, and so the games begin.

Konrad didn't hesitate to sprint directly towards the far side of the building and open the door, searching desperately for any supplies.

Sage just randomly appeared, did some stuff, and disappeared.

No

I visit a lot on my phone, but I can't view any of the forums on my phone, so I just check my notifs until I get home and get on my Chromebook. Also, it doesn't help that the Shard is blocked on all computers at school.

*hugs all*

My PMs are always open.

 

 

SPEAKING OF WHICH!

Who would be interested if I started like a "group therapy" PM type thing? I know I feel like I could use something like that and the people on here are all so nice and everything... 

Just quote me on this or PM me or get my attention some other way.  

I mean like...

That's not a bad idea
