Act 1
Collab between myself and
@Rockin StringsLight watched as the cultist she tried to hypnotize with the jiggling flan had an incredibly horrible reaction to the dessert and after only giving a little bit of info, the cultists convulsed and started to turn into some eldrich monster. Looking at Gromgard, Light said.
"Whats going on? I swear this hasn't happened to me before. Guy didn't even go through the stages of insanity!" commenting on the situation as she casually leaned back to dodge a rake aimed at her before moving up to grab the thing and hold it in a bear hug. Her frame didn't really show just how strong she was, and the creature had difficulty escaping her grasp as she turned it towards Gromgard.
"So, wanna do something with our friend here?" She said.
Gromgard watched as Light attempted hypnosis with the jiggly dessert. He wasn't sure if it would work or not but figured to at least let her try. What harm could there be?
Apparently a lot. The cultist turned into a monster. He looked at Light, only to hear her say this hadn't happened before.
"They don't normally turn into terrible monsters?" he asked, watching as Light grappled the strange entity that had once been a cultist.
Gromgard drew his blade in one hand as he readied a fireball in the other.
"Are you fireproof?" he asked before launching the spell at the monster, only to follow up with a wide swing of his sword, aiming to cut it in half.
"Get out of here. Go warn the others. I can handle this easily with my goblins." Grabbing his sword with both hands, he aimed an upwards slash that would, hopefully, cut the monster in half.
"Nah, they tend to... Wait fire what?" Light said not paying all that much attention as she was having fun hugging her new squirming flesh of a teddy bear. Gromgard, not wasting any time, chucked a fireball into the creature in Light's arms, burning both it and the arms Light was using to hold it.
"Ow, hot ho..." Light started to say, waving one of her arms to try to cool it down before Gromgard cleaved both the monster in two, and chopped off the arm Light didn't wave to cool off all in one stroke.
Light looked at the stump of her arm that the strike had resulted in, waving it a bit before looking for her dismembered forearm. Light didn't bleed, instead wisps of some kind of, darker than dark, blacker than black energy came from the stump, slowly absorbing any light it touched. Meanwhile her chopped off forearm, a bit burnt, still had a lot of energy and almost a mind of its own, and was scampering around the room like a zombie arm. Noticing this Light said
"Get back here you!", chasing around her own arm which had crawled up the body of the still alive cultist and sat on his head, almost hissing, well, if an arm could hiss as Light grabbed it and reattached it. A few moments later the burn marks on her arms also disappeared as she began to pick up and store parts of the creature that she could, using her sharp legs to stab a few that were still squirming.
"Ok Gromgard! Let me just finish collecting evidence. Who knew a bit of jiggling Flan would cause such a reaction huh?" Light said cheerfully, as if not bothered by Gromgard burning her and dismembering one of her arms not a few moments ago.
Gromgard smirked as the cleave connected. He frowned upon turning around to see Light's arm on the floor. He expected her to start freaking out. However, when her arm began moving on its own, he took a step back, ready to fling it at her if it came towards him. It chose to climb up into a cultist. After she reattached the severed limb, she started collecting what she called evidence.
"My apologies for cutting off your arm." he sighed, moving to begin grabbing monster pieces as well.
"That was not my intention."With a relaxed sigh, he tossed the monster pieces into a cauldron.
"Who should we take these pieces to for analyzation?" he asked, turning to face Light and the remaining cultists again.
"And what should we do with these two?Finishing stuffing one of the creature's tentacles into her dress, Light said.
"Don't worry about it. I'm super durable!" in a chippy tone. She thought a bit about what Gromgard had asked, saying.
"Well, I was going to give some to Graft, some to Flan, and some to the boss man, boss man first. I think he should know about what happened first." She then gave Gromgard a wave, walking out of the room. A few moments later she popped her head into the room saying.
"I had my fun, you do what you wanna do with the still alive cultist." before heading out and off to Rodias's chambers to report what had happened and everything she learned.

Act 2
Light listened as everyone else seemed to get all the fun jobs, but she understood. She wasn't the most subtle thing, and apparently Rodius didn't want a bunch of babbling insane people worshipping him so it all made sense she figured.
"Right-o boss! Just don't suck my blood or anything, I don't have any and that wont end well for ya." Light said with a teasing smile. she waited for everyone to say their questions, listening in.
She wasn't too happy about talk about melting down the stuff in the Vault. While Light didn't know what it did, it was there for a reason and just melting it down seemed silly. Rodius agreed, which put Light at ease, and he even explained what some of the stuff down there did!
"Ha, Glad I can regenerate." Light said casually at the whole resurrection thing. Kaldora's little speech about 'mana burn' didn't really bother Light much either, as she didn't even use the stuff.
"Sounds like what I do to people. Wonder if that could be connected somehow?" Light said, again, casually bit with a bit of insight included.
Light noticed a few new faces here, new chapter lords and head servants that had awoken? New friends! This distracted her for a moment before she remembered with Rodius talking to one of the new people about the 'thing' she and Gromgard had killed.
"I tried eating a bit of it. It tasted like salty nightmares, delicious!" Light said, giving her insight about the creature.
