  1. Pyk frowned. "I think they may be the prisons of the Twins... Aeia and Keylana." Hey! I'm not that old hag! [Asher, I'm detecting invasive activities in your brain again. Just, uhhh... thought I'd let you know. Ya know?]
  2. Pyk pushed the stone into their hands, and as he did this, the shadow, pounced, consuming him as light flashed around them. When the light subsided, they were back with @Spark of Hope and @Through The Living Glass.
  3. “Directions, for your friends. You are going to guide them through the Blight.” With that, information seared through his mind, and Em dropped to the ground. Lifeless.
  4. “No, separate itself from the leaders of its world. It didn’t want us to fall to the Blight. But… the Ashes, hey succumbed.” He held up the stone, grinning triumphantly. Behind him, the shadows formed into a figure.
  5. “The crown… it wants me to free it. But I won’t. I can’t.” He blocked it out, refusing it access to his mind. And it worked - the crown was silent.
  6. “In this one, the Flame made sure to… separate us, from it, to prevent corruption. But the Slumber leaked in another way, I think. Those are the screams… of Deptheaters. Hopefully they don’t see us, I need to continue working.” The air grew colder.
  7. I’m doing nothing. Pyk sighed, and placed a hand on the crown, concentrating. His brow unwrinkled, and he looked at her. “Asher…” He’ll be back.
  8. “When the Flame slept, died, whatever you call it, the first time, reality… broke. Fractured, twisted. It split off, tracing countless paths through time - each separate. In one, I met you, but in another, I died while trying to resist the Pact. In yet another, I died to the Monarch, all that time ago.” He shook his head. “The Flame brought the realities together, when he woke. But he’s slipping - more and more are appearing with every day. I believe we are from separate realities.” He found a loose Emberstone, then pulled another from his jacket, tinkering with it wordlessly. Above them, they heard a scream.
  9. You won’t be able to remove it - she was the one to bring you here in the first place. Adari, Aeia, sometimes people even call her Shayd - they mix up which crown is which, you see. It didn’t budge. Pyk straightened, closing his eyes. “You have no power over me…” He muttered, attempting to breath slowly. Flashes of flame were pulled from his memory. He shivered, but shook his head. “You have no power over me.” I could tell he was the resilient type.
  10. “Nonono - you’re not from my reality. A different possibility, a different time. That’s how you appeared in my room - it wasn’t mine, until you branched over.” He started looking in the dirt at their feet.
  11. Yes, the one my predecessor stole the power from. The Flame, I believe he was called. He was not okay. He was doubled over, clearly in pain. My twin can be… careless.
  12. “Yes, you can - the walls are just there for organization anyways. You will need… you will need a guide, though, through the Blight.” Side note - Aeia ( @Through The Living Glass ) and Felicity are in the same room. Pyk hesitated. “Something went wrong, I think, when the Flame woke. Some sort of corruption - I think it knew. Maybe.” He studied them. “You aren’t from around here, are you? Not this branch… I noticed it, but…” He frowned. “You need to get back - your presence is dangerous.” Indeed, the two were starting to feel sick. ”I will need my Smithing tools - or substitutes.”
  13. Just a dead deity taking its toll on me. For a god of chaos, its power is very sluggish.
  14. “Dead, like me. The Flame was hesitant to include me in the four, because I believe that she went, and stayed in, to heaven.” ”Far from here, though I do not know why. Far to the north.”
  15. “We live a content life.” @Spark of Hope ”I am afraid, friend, that we do not have much time. You need to visit the Flame in his resting place, and cut the Slumber out. It corrupted him long ago, I suspect. An invader.”
  16. Whaaaaat? No, that’s not what I was implying, no thank you. I know what you know of him.
  17. He shook his head. “I fear that, in time, I will end up just like them. Vera is out in the countryside right now, she may be lost as well.”
  18. Still young Pyk did not hear her. I am the “demon” trapped in that crown you are wearing.
  19. It dissolved into individual Strands, running up her arm and forming again as a crown. Greetings, young one. I am known as… Shayd.
  20. He nodded. “I think… the Slumber… I… I’ll have to think more on it. But it certainly explains things. I have felt it before, I think.” @Hawks ”A Smith.”
