Carnatis Inviktus(Reserved)

"I am afraid my lack of sight will never be fixed...You see, it was the prize I had to pay for my life."

Marcy sighs.

"It's a long story..."

As Marcy opens her mouth to explain, Lewis rushes in the camp.

"I got some carrots!"

[Silentdarkness1]

Wilson whispered in Marcy's ear.

 

"Every barrier can be worked around, eventually. You'd be surprised what I can do with enough time and the right equipment. We'll talk this over later, though."

 

Wilson turned to Lewis.

 

"Alright, good. We'll want to stick with non-meat foods if we can. Keep the bunnymen off our backs."

 

(Can't have Entropy and Alma rejoin the others until you have Alma respond to what Entropy said last, btw )

[DwerBomb]

(Ok fine, fine.)

"Yea sure, we wouldn't have the silk now if I didn't go get it, though."

And so Alma and Entropy arrive back at the camp.

"Mr.Scientist, we have silk."

[Silentdarkness1]

Wilson turned to Alma and Entropy.

 

"There you are....I was starting to worry. That's good, I can start putting the crossbow together right n-"

 

Wilson suddenly sensed something went wrong.

 

"......Did something happen?"

 

( @Blewcheese )

[DwerBomb]

"Well, a morbid marble monster was stalking us. Other then that, nothing happened."

[Silentdarkness1]

(Btw, same one that scared the bejeebus out of Lewis.)

 

"...Marble?.........That's new."

(Lewis doesn't remember )

[Blewcheese]

"Indeed it is... And it was fairly powerful, too. The last thing we need is another enemy."

[Battal]

Vilsig looks over the side.

 

[Silentdarkness1]

"....Do you suppose that has something to do with why Vilsig wanted my help with Rustlung?.......wait......where is he, now that I think of it?"

 

Vilsig could see an ocean of nightmare fuel, a literal endless flow of dark madness. Some of it was being sucked up through some pipes, likely into the ruins.

 

"Behold. This place is where They were made. This sea of dark madness. There is so much here.....any creature that touches it would be either destroyed, or morphed, mutated and twisted, so that very few would remember what he, she or it used to be. And...it has other uses, too..."

[Battal]

Vilsig stares into the dark abyss for a couple seconds.

 

"Mmmmmmm.  Impressive.  Anything else?"

[Blewcheese]

"Vilsig... He hasn't come back from his hunting yet, has he... You don't suppose something's happened to him?"

[DwerBomb]

Marcy pulls the end of Wilson's sleeve to get his attention, then she whispers in his ear:

"I don't like where this is going."

To this action, Alma reacts with a glare directed to the blind girl.

[Silentdarkness1]

Wilson nodded grimly.

 

"Gotta assume the worst."

[DwerBomb]

Alma grins.

"Marcy, Vilsig can do anything by his own. Maybe he just got bored of us and went away."

Lewis , surprised by these harsh words, replies:

"Alma! How could you say that?"

"I don't like your attitude at all, Alma."

Marcy says with an angered expression.

"Oh, I'm sooorry...I'll change ASAP."

The Banshee laughs.

[Blewcheese]

Entropy glanced at Alma. lYou must be forgetting how weak he was when we last saw him. He could barely keep himself on the physical plane."

[DwerBomb]

"Yes, but..."

...

Alma remains silent.

[Hugos10]

"Okay, I'm back guys! I found some alternate dimension vegetables! If it's okay with you, though, I'll probably just stick to eating some spiders down in those caves..." I say to everybody.

[Silentdarkness1]

"He....well...whatever the reason is, he's gone, and I have to imagine he's dead by now. We'll just have to make do. Welcome back, I guess...Erised, I hope you've found a good place to start with the cave searching."

 

 

"Why do you ask?"

 

"We need to move as soon as possible, that's why. It's not safe to wait. Some marble monstrosity nearly killed Alma."

 

"Oh my....I see. Very well then. I will find the entrace as soon as I can, then."

 

Erised disappeared.

 

"That orb I fed you. Did you like it? Something I can make out of this vast ocean. Imagine never being hungry ever again. And in a manner much easier than having to hunt yourself prey that fights back..."

[Battal]

Vilsig nods.  "A demonstration, then?"

Edited September 6, 2014 by Lord_Battal

[Silentdarkness1]

"Hmm......sure."

 

Rustlung extended an arm outwards, calling a large orb of liquid nightmare fuel up from below. He muttered a spell under his breath, and it turned a brilliant white before crystallizing into another orb, much like the one he had given Vilsig earlier. He put it inside Vilsig's cage again, just like before.

[Battal]

Vilsig drains the orb, then drops it back out the cage.  Looking back at the sea, dark and maniacal thoughts sweep through his mind.  However, he is still not fully convinced.

 

"Hmmmmmm.  What would happen if you dropped an...animal into it?  Like a rabbit or something?"

[Silentdarkness1]

"More likely than not, it would become twisted into an extremely dark mockery of it's former self.....as a matter of fact, I think Charlie dearest would know more about the specifics of this than me."

[Battal]

"That was me asking of another demonstration."  Vilsig says.

[Silentdarkness1]

"Oh....pardon me, then. I'll have my minion go grab something, then."

 

Rustlung snapped a finger. After a few moments, the stone figure from earlier returned, holding a Snurtle in it's claws. Rustlung waved a paw, and the marble monster chucked the snurtle into the ocean below. After about a minute or so, a shadowy claw reached into the fluid, plucked the snurtle out, and brought it back to them. The thing was dripping in nightmare fuel. It snarled angrily, sharp spines growing onto it's shell. It's shell was cracked, and leaking madness.
