"A million times I have done this charade. The moment people figure it out, I get the boot." she thought.
"But don't you want to see the fear in their eyes when they see who you really are...? Don't you want dominion of this place, just like how you were unchallenged in Vaal Kastrix?" said the Voice.
Ciara scoffed, immediately thinking of Gulliver and Valen. "I'd love to wipe the smirk off their faces."
"It starts by building a rumor. A rumor of power. This could be the place to start."
She took a deep breath, narrowing her eyes resolutely at the Undermage. "Head Advisor, with all due respect, you have no right to ask me about my intentions. If you want answers..."
She stood from her seat, rising to her full height.
Her breath caught when she felt the cold metal of a pistol against her temple.
"Put the heart down, and back the hell up if you want your friend to live," the guard said to Ellie in a rumbling baritone, digging the gun into Dream's head.
Dream squinted at Ellie, vision blurred as she tried to breathe. The heart, glinting in Ellie's hands.
The doctor, his face turning white every time she asked what would happen if they failed. Above all else, he said, they had to keep the heart safe. They had to, even if it meant...
She snarled, her boot stamping down on the guard's foot, a burst of light bruising the bone. He yelped, losing his grip. That's all she needed, and she tore away. But in her haste, she saw his free arm reaching for her, and she slipped on panicked feet as he pushed her off the railing.
She held back a scream, staring straight down into the boiling pit below. The guard wrapped a tight hand around her ankle, and Ellie could see Dream's other foot flailing; she restrained herself poorly from kicking the guard, desperately hoping she wouldn't die.
As her captor supported himself against the railing, his pistol pointed at Ellie.
Deep, golden orbs stared back at her from within the cave.
God, she couldn't breathe.
He was monstrous. The ground trembled under her feet as his rippling, massive body exited the cave. Thunderous footsteps left cracks in the dirt, his breath sent waves of heat creeping over her skin. The transformation was slow, but it looked like something from a nightmare with the way his long teeth were bared.
A great and terrible roar sounded from his gaping maw.
So people either have some bond with a spirit that lets them perform what amounts to magic or they are some form of spirit?
Yes, or you can be a run-away test subject with an artifical connection made, giving you supernatural powers. And yes, a Wild is a spirit, or a monster, they can be corporeal or spectral. There's a lot of room to play with if you want to go that route.
Will you need those of us that have been in the first part to resubmit our characters?
I am doing some edits to the CS, so I would need it re-submitted, if that's alright. ^^;
But I'm curious as to how the memories work for the new characters. Is everybody just waking up again? It sounds like these are survivors on the outside of the prequal setting, that didn't get put in an experimental memory-wipe inducing stasis.
Yes, that's correct. There's a whole living, breathing world out there beyond the Umbra Corp facility that have just been living and fighting amongst themselves this whole time. New players that are not Umbra Corp test subjects will have their memories and different ways they maintain their abyssal connection. These abyssal connections are mainly achieved through a live-in Wild (connected to the soul), or being a Wild.
