I have never encountered a being this similar to Ragnarok before. The question is: what tests will confirm or reject our hypotheses?

@Source

Acknowledgement from the thing itself? Is there a way to get it to talk?

*Smiles*
Precisely. I believe it is likely parasitical in nature.

@Source

The similarities with Ragnarok continue to grow even after we ruled it out. Crona did mention he didn’t know if other, similar entities existed.

It is. As a result, I could not extract a decent sample. Attempts to amputate toes led to the blood retreating from her feet. Attempts to extract from her center of mass resulted in the blood parting on either side of her body. To avoid permanent tissue damage, I suspended further similar tests.

@Source

So it does act with a semblance of sentience.

The blood is reactant to some degree. It will allow physical harm to Elizabeth under certain conditions.

@Source

Sounds more like a negative.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Armed Forces>

Was it? I would be more than glad to ask.

@Source

*Waves my hands side to side*
Nevermind that, I misinterpreted something. Names get mixed up sometimes, so ignore all of that. I don’t know where to go from here. Did your tests yield anything while I was gone?

*Look at you and raises my eyebrows*
Who would that be? I was not involved in that interaction.

@Source

*Fiddles around with the device on my arm*
One Luke Colgate?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Armed Forces>

I agree.
*Pulls Crona's vitals onto a nearby monitor*

@Source

I think it may be worth considering people who’ve had negative interactions with her in the past. For example, the individual who held her in indentured servitude for a period of time.

<Snipped quote by Armed Forces>

Then we have the possibility of a weak connection.

@Source

That’s what I gathered. But it is interesting to note, Crona’s condition is worth keeping an eye on.

<Snipped quote by Armed Forces>

What was Elizabeth's behavior like before I arrived?

@Source

She was very mild. Simply wanted to ask anyone around anything that would teach her more about her own past.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Armed Forces>

When does he say it happened?

@Source

Yesterday.
