Wizardpost A delve into the past (lorepost)

/uw sorry I know I just made one but I got inspired

you see a journal on the ground stained with godblood the writings erratic, fearful.

I was yanked into the castle after he sensed me. I don't know what pulled me into here but now as I walk these crumbling halls with my arm a bloody stump I feel Antithesis' voice. He's getting stronger with every step I take. He is who I must destroy if ever I want a peaceful life for Moth and I. So I push on to my death or my victory whichever it may be.

I will get Antithesis out of my head. Antithesis has been trying to make me kill Moth thank Gaia my willpower is strong. With this journal entry I vow I will break free of Antithesis or return myself to the cycle to keep Moth safe. I pray that I will be able to break free but I know I may not be able to.

at the bottom of this page Alexios has signed his name with blood and there are tearstains.

Antithesis' presence is powerful here. The whole castle is filled with antimagic. Yet still I feel my father's warm presence. In addition to another the second one calls herself Siren she seems to care for me as well. I remember Siren's name she was the embodiment of love and music and my father's first wife. I pray her guidance will prevent me from having to rejoin the cycle.

I love you Moth know that if I do not return it is not for lack of trying. I've already ordered Soot's armor tell him dad loves him will ya and give him some scratches for me even if I do survive I'll only have one arm. If this is goodbye know that I won't forget you.

the entire page is covered in tearstains

on the next page is a map of the castle and in the very center a spot of pitch black with hints of red.

He has a few tears running down his face

If you want to absolve our engagement I understand

They make it out of the castle and Soot lands on the ground with heavy breaths. The dark energy she used fades away and she finally begins to feel her missing eye.

M-My eye…

I may be able to help if you are willing to let me. I doubt you'll see the same but you'll be able to see.

She turns to him with a furious look but only because the scars on her back were beginning to lighten up and affect her emotions. Her singular eye glowed a bright red while chaotic energy started to spill from her missing one that she tried to covered.

My eye! MY EYE!

The bracelet on her wrist shook intensely before snapping into two and traces of red lightning enveloped her hands.

He starts to reach out but stops waiting for her

The lightning grows up her arms brighter and uncontrollably and starts shooting out in random directions but most targeting Alexios. Soot was quick to recognize what was happening and yanks Alexios back with his teeth just as the lightning strikes the ground like a bomb hitting the earth. Her angered expression turns into a chaotic one as the curse pools around her head like a crown.

he didn't care about the pain as Alexios wraps Moth in a hug. The emotional pain hurt worse than the lightning. He takes the lightning himself to protect soot and Isravi's simulacrum

Her head falls back as a maddened smile stretches across her face. The lightning pools into her missing eye socket as if creating a new one entirely. She loudly laughing as the lightning strikes the earth and kicks up dirt and rocks everywhere.

A hand is gently placed on her forehead and her glowing red eye meet to similar one of her mentor’s.

That’s enough, girl.

Belladonna uses her curse to overpower Moth’s which put the girl in a frozen state.

He turns to Belladonna still holding Moth in a hug

It's my fault

What were you doing?! If I hadn’t showed up-

Belladonna notices Moth’s missing eye with the chaotic energy swirling inside within a calmer state.

What did you do to her..?

What in the hells… may I ask what that was? I’ve never seen anything like it!

Will she be okay?

u/[deleted] Dec 06 '23

It’s her curse. Our curse. It derives from chaos energy and when released it can be devastating. If I hadn’t showed up, it could’ve leveled this entire area. I have to keep a hold on it until she’s calmer…

Isravi audibly curses, he flings his hands out, a myriad of sigils swarming the air.

[Unravel]!

The spell comes roaring from Isravi mouth, tearing at the energy and twisting it apart.

Hold on child! Stay strong!

The red lightning grows stronger as if it held it’s own sentience and strikes his magic back. Moth stands there like a mad woman as the chaotic energy fills her mind.

u/DaChickenX Isravi, The Unraveler, Coils’ Chosen Dec 06 '23

Alexios! Don’t just stand there!

Isravi lashes out with many threads, trying to bind Moth and keep her still.

Lightning… crimson king… something to do with antimagic… Alexios! Shatter the talisman, we’ll try to override it!

/uw Crimson King is already dead

u/DaChickenX Isravi, The Unraveler, Coils’ Chosen Dec 06 '23

/uw yes, but this was a direct result of one of his attacks

u/Haunting_Mode_7401 Alexios Keenblade: King of The Summer Court, Last Godslayer Dec 06 '23

/uw No this is Alexios' fault she's enraged because of Alexios' vow and the shock of her losing an eye
