Void Rift (rp) - Intermission

OOC: Pretty sure you meant Abigail, so I'll pretend like you typed that (Read your post again)

"One can only hope."
I continue embracing the hug.

 

OOC: I had a brainfart. This is what happens when you have 6 characters, it was bound to happen eventually.

Stephanie hugs back, clearly happy to be in your presence.

 

I simply wait for her to feel like she's more comfortable, and release her embrace.
But I make no signs of it, I just wait.

 

"Nice. What's the other one? It looks evil."
---
I wonder if these are linked in any way.
I try to look at my surroundings in the palace.

 

After a while, Stephanie lets go, smiling at you.

"That's beedrill. He's alright, probably worth capturing at this stage." Shadow Stephanie says, attacking the beedrill.


It seems your vision is locked to the fairy's. She flies into one of the elevators, turning the dials one at a time with both hands. As she turns the centre dial, she's teleported to a large room with a pool. Idala swims about in the water.

 

I let go, too, smiling.
I then look over at the rest of the group, noticing something.
"Oh. Rineth's back."
I say cheerfully.

 

"Rineth?" Stephanie asks, turning to look at the group.

@Exvhius

Stephanie runs over to Rineth, smiling, "Hey Rineth! It's nice to have you back." Stephanie says happily.

 

I follow Stephanie.
@Exvhius
I say to Rineth,
"Hey. How's it going?"

 

"So you capture them, then you can use them to capture more? That's interesting. Is Pikachu your best one?"
---
Again? I wonder if all this links to what I'm thinking... maybe connecting to nature literally means you connect with life around you.

 

"I'd say my best right now is Chameleon," Shadow Stephanie says, changing the monster she fights with, "He's also one of my favourites."

A black cat walks in, its red eyes glowing. It jumps up on the sofa with Shadow Stephanie, curling up on her lap.

"Oh, hey Onyx," Shadow Stephanie says, gently stroking the cat; It purrs lightly, "Onyx is the palace cat."


The fairy dashes into the changing rooms as a guard heads through a pair of doors on one side of the pool. The fairy hides in the last shower stall, scared. The vision changes again, and you find yourself looking through the eyes of a cat. It jumps up on a sofa with Shadow Stephanie, curling up in her lap. You can just about see Idala nearby.

 

"Nice cat. Is everything in this world black with red eyes?"
---
Looks like I'm right... these flowers must be able to connect with creatures somehow. If these are real, these are going to be events which have happened and the flower is taking memories from all the creatures. That would be a flower Hythania would want to have...

 

"Mostly, yeah." Shadow Stephanie says, stroking Onyx. She meows at Idala.


Suddenly, the vision ends. You find yourself drenched in green liquid, meditating in the open flower.

"Welcome back, did you feel as if you connected with nature and its many inhabitants?" The forest guardian asks.

 

"So cute! I never knew I liked cats so much... Onyx looks like a furry Drakonshade."
---
"I saw someone I know in several places in the palace. Does the flower give you visions of what other people are doing?"

 

"What's a drakonshade?" Shadow Stephanie asks, stroking Onyx. Onyx's purring becomes louder, and she rolls onto her back.


"Different people have reported different visions from being connected with nature. I can only assume you've been told to go after this person, I suggest you try your best to track them down," The forest guardian says, "The flower simply connects you to nature itself, a gateway of sorts. You cannot control what happens, but you must trust in mother nature."

 

"Dark dragon-like creatures which attack anything on sight. They usually stay in the Void between a portal and Eras' Void Palace. They sometimes manage to find a way into the world I come from. Does Onyx want me to stroke her?"
---
"Yes, I was looking for them. These flowers are interesting... I've seen through the eyes of other beings before, but this is different."

 

"Interesting." Shadow Stephanie says.

Onyx meows, "Sure, you can stroke her." Shadow Stephanie adds.


"Nature is a powerful force. While you were in that flower, you were one with it; you were every being to exist, and every being that shall ever exist. It's a force that you shouldn't abuse." The forest guardian says.

The forest guardian leads you to the elevator, "I suggest you look for that friend of yours. You've been sent after her for a reason." She says.

 

Idala gently rubs Onyx's underside.
"Thanks."
---
"Well, that's why I came to this place in the first place. I found it while trying to look for them."
He starts turning dials, again in a seemingly random way, yet he turns them as if he were trying them in a certain order or sequence.

 

Onyx purrs rather loudly, "Heh, I think she likes you." Shadow Stephanie says.


"Good luck." The forest guardian says.

The green liquid seems to move down your arm, and it almost makes it seem like it's making you turn the dials to specific positions. As you turn the centre dial, everything goes black, and you find yourself in a room with a large screen, a lot like the one you saw in your final vision. Idala and Shadow Stephanie are both present, and you can hear a cat purring.

 

"Oh... That's where the 'leech' part of Eras' name comes from, I guess."
"What? Is she a prisoner?"
"Kind of."

Avis coos.

"Thank you sir."
He yawns, bowing to you.

"I won't."
He pauses.
"I don't recall seeing this many faces in the group. May I ask who the other Death Guardian is?"

"Thanks! Good to see you're okay."

"Well, it's weird to sense all this again, but it's nice to know I haven't tainted the Voidwalkers' name... yet."

 

"I am Myria, Artemis' mother." Myria says, smiling at Rineth.

Artemis smiles at her mother.


"You've missed out on quite a bit while you've been...well, away. Though I'm sure things will get better now you're here." Stephanie says happily.
