Writing is like a workout muscle. If you haven't written in a while, it hurts at first, but when you're done, the endorphins come rushing in and you forget why you ever stopped.

It's difficult not writing, and difficult to write. The only tolerable emotion, is having just written.

"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.
She smiled as she saw Tayla find her hiding spot. There was a stir in the crowd, started by Drake.
All over little her?
She had her attention on Drake's every move as he sprung into action, allowing her to throw up a flashbang-like effect with her White Suit's Power. She shielded her eyes as it exploded, encasing the house and surrounding area in blinding light.
As fate would have it be, this was the exact moment she would be pulled into a recollection, leaving her gasping for air and teetering on the branch she perched on. In her shock, as her vision returned, she found herself falling, crashing into the branches below.
With a groan, light spewed from her shoulders as wings slowed her fall. Her binoculars were not so lucky, and she peered through the dense pine needles as the binoculars fell to the ground beside Sully.
Shame. But there was no way they'd see her, reveal who exactly was spying on them. That she had to ensure.
As the flashbang faded, Luna used her wings to dive further into the trees, dodging branches and trunks to hopefully outrun her pursuers, unaware that Tayla was mentally tracking her.
This thread is obviously too long to jump into and even reading the entire backlog is a daunting proposition, but I read the first page and the OOC info and just wanted to say, really interesting stuff!
Thanks! You wanna come join us? (Status is 'apply' :> )
Valen dared to associate her with Umbralists. Again.
”For one of your ilk, I would advise a search for inner peace.”
She blinked, before her anger dispersed in the face of confusion, and fear.
“The Abyssal One knows we're here!”
Ciara gritted her teeth. “There's no way it knows, it only saw how you were divided in controlling my actions.”
“It knows you exist conflicted, and not in control. That is enough for us.”
“I'm completely in control, I don't know what you're talking about.”
“Your attempt at a lie is cute, little Hunger, but we know you better.”
Ciara listened as Valen offered to duel them when they were finally worthy, and she snarled, her disgust evident on her face. There can't be that wide of a gap, can there? He has to be joking.
Before she noticed the ping, and her eyes widened.
Hildegunde.
Iraleth moved faster, her light shining bright as she activated her Ethos. She was on the same wavelength, and when she turned to Ciara, Ciara could only nod her head.
“Count me in.”
Her glare settled on Valen and his lackeys before she extended a hand to Iraleth, the one she was fated to duel that evening.
Her knees trembled under weight. Her eyes, though they could not ‘see’, bore the burden of sleep deprivation. Her sword dragged behind her as she shuffled into the streets of the Adventurer's District starting a new day.
In her other hand she carried her spoils. The Night in the Abyss had exhausted her, but it had also answered a lot of her questions. What she was meant to be doing in this city, and the best way to go about it.
She could feel the substance the Abyss gifted her, but her loneliness made it dispute, stick to her less. She needed people to believe in her. In her cause. In her dream.
She could do that.
But first, she had to repair her sword. And in order to repair her sword, she needed money.
It was time to sell her loot.
Her exhaustion, however, made her lightheaded. She needed rest. Elys pictured her day in taking care of her finances in this district, and making her way to the Bladerights by sundown for a meal and rest. If she had it in her, she'd spar with the students in the evening.
With her mind made up, Elys moved past the large masses of buildings, listening for the shouting of a merchant who would be interested in buying her loot for a fair price.
