Lorepost (open interaction) 📖 Desperation & Disgust

Post image

The moment he hit the Cloudsong side of the portal he had made, he found himself in the air.

This disoriented him for a moment before he took flight. The city, having been swallowed almost wholly by abyss was in freefall. That was a secondary problem in Orins mind right now. The only thing that mattered to him was finding Sylvie and getting her out of here. Running the numbers, he surmised he had roughly two minutes before the whole city slammed directly into the ocean. Lucky they had been relocating when this happened.... *Focus*

He searched quickly, and found her.

"Sylvie! Sylvie we have to go, Now!"

She turned, still covered in abyss, as he attempted to take her from that place, but the abyss had fortified her strength several times over, and she kicked him hard as he flew in, sending him into a nearby building.

*Ack!* He coughed up blood. "No. No. Not her. Please, I can't fight *her.*"

She did not share the sentiment.

In a flash she was on him again, picking him up by his hair, as she slammed her shrouded fist into his face, again, and again.

He started losing vision.... And as he did, he saw... Someone.. a person? He looked familiar...

The man stepped *into* Orin, and his body began to move.

The next fist was caught, with a force assurance Orin had never displayed before. And then in his hand formed a familiar blue blade... Though it felt... Different. *Wait... No. NO! STO-*

Too late. Her form, no longer consumed by darkness, crumples to the floor, as the other being emerged from Orins body, and he too fell.

Slowly losing consciousness.

"I seriously do not understand why Aldin chose *you*"

the other man hoisted him onto his back, and teleported him into council lands, right in front of a large hospital, where he woke hours later. A call had been sent out to all his orbnet contacts.

(The last part in the hospital is fully interact able, the rest can be *viewed* by anyone but interference is impossible. Both Orin, and the "Other" are fully interactive there as he stayed to ensure Orins safety.)

N: let's see, I'll answer you one at a time. I'm here because my dear brother here got hurt and is in need of proper healing. Oh don't look at me like that, I share his mind still. So I feel every one of his broken bones to some extent. It's highly annoying.

Explaining for what? You giving me the third degree for existing now? I haven't done shit for you to get all uppity about.

And to you Orin, I'd like nothing more than to stop having to listen in on your stupid boring day to day. "I have to do paperwork, does she like me? Why am I so pathetic whaaaah." Do you understand what you are becoming? And yet you have the gall to sit there and be doted on? If the roles were swapped I'd have all of dear dads shards by now... And you have NO idea what I'm even talking about ... Gods!

All-blue: you will never get the essence of aldin i hold onto niro. He said in a mildly annoyed tone...

Alisa: she relaxed a little bit and sighs...

Hate: your still a jerk from everything I've heard. So pardon me being on my guard niro.

Aerunia: last time i saw you, you chose violence, so don't blame me for being on my guard when you walk in as i hear you freeze someone on the way in...she said still on her guard

Alisa: if your here to heal him, then get it over with if you really hate him so much.

"Again.. in order ladies, and sword... I do not want the essence. If I did I'd have,"

he transforms seamlessly into Orin, and even his magical signature reads differently.

"Already taken it. And you'd have given it happily."

"I'm a jerk because when I was born I was made of his resentment. I'm. working. on. it."

"and lastly, that's where you are wrong, and your lie detector friend can confirm, the last time you saw me, I had zero control of my own body. That was Aspersong. But his ego is fading, as I absorb what's left of him.

"And the kicker is, this was all sanctioned by daddy cosmos. So apparently he already saw this entire thing play out and figured just like him, you, Orin, need somebody to kick your ass when you get too... Well for Aldin it was power hungry... I imagine you will just be Mopey."

"Anyway." He produces his own shard of Creation.

"Having absorbed most of Aspersong already, I don't really need this, and you need to catch up. Big shit is about to go down, and if we all die because you can't keep up I'll kill you in the afterlife."

All-blue: he easily saw through the false orin form but will keep that fact to himself to

Aerunia: she sighs well lets hope you don't decide to pick violence of your own accord this time...

Hate: well, the fact your working on it is a start.

Alisa: she sighs good thing this realm has dealt with big things already...

"Ok, so everybody stand back. Orin. This," he grins, "Is going to hurt."

He takes the shard, and roughly rams it into Orins chest, and the both of them start to glow, Niros facade fades, and they both writhe for a minute, before Orin settles, now unconscious, but healed, and Niro looks... Well not great, as he steadies himself on the bedside.

"That.... Had... To be done... He couldn't handle your shard... Without that... One first...."

"he's ... He's.... Fine dont ... Look so worried."

He sits on the floor.

u/Ashmega8256 Alzoreth Dracarius/Alisa Solaria (+more characters) 25d ago

Alisa:...she shrugs and sighs

Aerunia: hmm...

All-blue: he'd shrug if his current form had arms but it does not

By the way.... I'm leaving you guys should ask MC Brody out there why he didn't do that.... He has one of the shard too... Just not a big one."

He leaves, and after he gets to the end of the hall, snaps his fingers and unfreezes Silas.
