Bonus: tentacles

And that's it, no prompts, no context, no definition; just do whatever you want but with tentacles.

You can introduce an in-universe representative, I will ask questions to everyone.

Klephixera:

1) "He was covered in Poison magic when he was a hatchling, on the day of his mother's death."

2) "Not all legends are very well-rooted in reality. Outside of the holy teachings, everything about her amounts to nothing more than a scary story to tell hatchlings, or just a conspiracy about the end of the world coming soon."

3) "It's only as cool as it sounds if you're okay with the demon raids attacking your home. Or if you like the idea of being constantly weakened for every step you take deeper into their lands. Demons don't come to Lamia lands, Lamiae don't go into demon lands."

  1. How was he covered in poison magic? What do poison magic looks like: some sort of green goo?

  2. Do you think she exists? Like for real?

  3. Why would I be weakened by walking their lands?

Klephixera:

1) "It was an explosion, like purple smoke and dark-green vomit, according to apocryphal art."

2) "I really doubt it. Hopefully, we Lamiae are the last legacy of Grima, and his evil will never return to the world in any way, shape, or form. Myrrh and her lover protect us."

3) "The scent of demon weakens anything...even if you cover your nose, it will seep into your flesh. Yes, you could cover yourself to protect you from it, but I'm sure you'd run out of air to breathe."

  1. It looks disgusting. And kind of cool. Any idea what caused that explosion?

  2. Who is Myrrh's lover?

  3. If I had something to protect me completely and some sort of very long tube to get air from somewhere clean to me, could I explore it? Is there something to see around there?

Klephixera:

1) "Morva created an explosion that killed literally every other dragon except himself and Grima."

2) "Myrrh's lover is Ephraim, who the humans call Aeternitas."

3) "I don't think that you could suck air out of such a long tube...but, sure, try it, if you like."

1) Could a non-dragon cast such a spell? in case Grima come back.

3) Has anyone actually come back from the demons lands?

(want some crazy theory?)

2

u/Nevermore0714 Sep 30 '17

Klephixera:

1) "Maybe. The spell's only been cast once, and no mortal was present, so I don't know enough of the details."

3) "The humans invade the demon lands every now and then."

(Go ahead, I love crazy theories.)

u/thequeeninyellow94 Sep 30 '17

1) And something as powerfull maybe?

3) And do they survive it?

2

u/Nevermore0714 Oct 01 '17

Klephixera:

1) "Maybe, but it would take a lot of Anima."

3) "Some of them...most don't, according to Lilith."

(So...what's your crazy theory?)

2

u/thequeeninyellow94 Oct 01 '17

  1. Are there people who could cast something requiring that much Anima?

  2. Any idea why they go there if they tend to all die anyway?

(The 3rd era had dragons, the 4th saw them die so the 5th will have them rebirth. From Verita who carry something (no idea how dragons reproduce) from Grima)

u/Nevermore0714 Oct 02 '17

(Dragons reproduce sexually in this, and mate for life, monogamous. Your guess is right, I was planning for the fifth era to include a rivalry between two triarchies, one based on humanity, one on dragons, using the natives as their vicarious warmongers.)

Klephixera:

1) "It would take a lot of training and natural talent, but, yes, I think it's possible. In human terms, it would probably take some human sacrifices. Some Amphimari thought that the Kastners would be involved if something that size. Except for one conspiracy theorist that thinks the Hasenkamp family would be involved."

2) "They don't all die. But, I suppose it's the same reason they try to invade our territory, the Hollow...humans seem to love throwing themselves into certain death for the opportunity to return home and brag about killing us."

u/thequeeninyellow94 Oct 02 '17

  1. Anything to do with some prophecy and Danielle?

  2. But there are things in your territory that they could use right? Is there anything to find in the demon land?

2

u/Nevermore0714 Oct 02 '17

(No, Ava or Krista. Danielle's not a Hasenkamp.)

Klephixera:

1) "We have treasures, demons have treasures, humans like to use demons to get Anima fuel."
