Maybe I'll play Cyberpunk 2077 some more. My brother maxed out my character a year and a half ago. Haven't seen him since. Miss him.

Bio


°˖✧◝(⁰▿⁰)◜✧˖°







”Mr. Dawson, why don't you have a seat?” He said, gesturing to the brown leather chair he had his hand resting on.

The men behind Adel stepped forward. They each placed a firm hand around his upper arms, half-guiding, half-dragging Adel to the seat. If Adel struggled in any way, their plan would have been quickly subduing him with a blow to the cheek - but besides tensing up, the man didn’t fight.

They shoved Adel into the seat, twisting it so it faced the mirror. Vincent still had that smirk on his face as he picked up a bowl of shaving cream and an applicator brush on the counter.

Slowly, methodically, Vincent applied shaving cream to Adel's face while speaking.

”Now, my men tell me that you and your spies have decided to make it your home in White Pine. Not that I care too much about that.”

He set down the bowl, picking out a barber's blade instead. He opened it, the fresh gleam of a clean, sharp blade within.

“What I really care about, though, is who set you up to do this.”

The blade pressed against Adel's neck as Vincent leaned over, staring at the man through the mirror.

”So, what'll it be, Canary? You gonna sing?”

"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.

"You'll have to duel me for them."

"I know she rests here. Bring me to the Umbralist."


Ohhhh maaaaaan. :o
A bit busier than I would have liked to be tonight, it should be up tomorrow. Apologies for the delay!
Ah, no worries, thanks for the heads up! We'll wait a little more. :)
@WhiteAngel25 Heyyy, any luck? :)
Whoops, sorry Blizz. I may have posted a bit too quick, or a bit too vague, then. I imagined the dragon falling into the storm, and then dissolving. Not the actual Veil stone thingy. Does that work? Or shall I change it? Just let me know.

The Dragon


Elysium Island, The Sky


Interactions: NA.




It wasn't working. No matter how much fire he threw at the man in the orb of lightning, he wouldn't stop. Moving too fast, else the dragon would have flown out of the way. Instead, his body curled up in itself, protecting the softer insides as the orb made contact.

ZAM!

A terrible screech escaped his maw as thousands of volts, maybe even tens of thousands, coursed through him, wracking his nervous systems and turning his insides numb. It took a long moment before the dragon realized Drake's eyes were on him, but he was so far away…

Then Drake disappeared entirely, as the dragon fell into the Veil.

Jin cursed in his mind. And, slowly but surely, the dragon began to deconstruct as it was buffeted by the storms, resummoned back to the Dynasty.






Elysium Island, In the Tunnels


Interactions: Britney @Mixtape Ghost N, Artifact Group




Alexander hissed as Clancy broke from his grip, only watching as Alexander escaped the scene while hugging his mangled arm, portal closing over him.

The Undead King had it a little tougher. Alas, the one managing portals was watching from a slit somewhere else in the tunnel, and was also caught up in the Obsession when Sloane threw the knife. So, the Undead King stood there, motionless and defenseless, as Clancy tore at its ribcage and spine.

Crack!

That was the sound of a precise strike, the stake, that impacted through Clancy right to the Undead King's ribcage. The work Adora had done, the spider-like cracks, splintered, and the stake wholly impaled the Undead King. It grunted, now stuck in one place.

However, its twister had indeed caused a lot of frost damage to the tunnel and its residents.

”Ashy... Layla... Luca... Get out of here!”
Adora


Alizée, staring blankly at Luca as she held back the four-legged monster, quickly turned her attention to Layla. ”Layla, get back!”

Layla gritted her teeth, seeing the twister coming right for her. And she shook her head. ”I'm not leaving!”

Britney made quick work of the four-legged monster, and Alizee released her chains, immediately scooping Layla up and attempting to shield her from the frost as it began to cling to her eye lashes. ”You stupid girl…”

”Aislin, Sloane, Now's not the time to stand around and gawk! Do something!”
Britney


Aislin had been too scared to take the shot, afraid she'd hit the Greenwood member who attacked that Mafia fellow. Then afraid she'd hit Clancy.

But now? She could see it clearly. A fire tornado forming in the Undead King's hand, spelling doom for them.

She couldn't let that happen!

Spurred on by Britney, and by necessity, Aislin lowered her gun and instead raised a single hand to the roof of the tunnel. In the next instant, rocks, boulders, concrete and dirt began to fall on the Undead King, just barely missing Clancy. Dust and dirt filled the tunnel, making it hard to see for a few seconds. Making it hard to breathe.

Until, eventually, the dust cleared enough to show only a single boney hand of the Undead King sticking out from a mountain of rock and concrete, completely smothered. The hand twitched and tried to move, but besides that could do nothing.

Aislin took shallow breathes, tasting dirt and dust in her mouth. Her gaze moved to Britney. ”...Let's get outta here. I dont think its dead.”

However, her concern wasn't needed. Slowly, the Undead King's hand dissolved into gold specks, de-summoning back to the Dynasty.

***

Reports fired through the House of Cards comms ceaselessly. Valencia stood there, absorbing it all, hand on her chin as she stared at Lancy, who was sweating over the notes.

Ah, it couldn't be helped, could it?

Valencia's hand fell on Lancy's shoulder. ”We're leaving.”

Her gaze fell on the two esteemed Elite members with her, Blake and Jason. ”Get close and I'll portal you out. Or you can stay here. But,” A short chuckle. “I wouldn't recommend it.”

Valencia stood with Lancy and waited long enough for Jason and Blake to join her if they wished, before she pulled out a small vial pendant around her neck. A quick pull of the top, and it snapped, brilliant light flooding the lab before fading away, leaving the lab quite empty.






The House of Cards


Elysium Island, House of Cards Boats on the Shore


Interactions: N/A.




A few minutes later, everyone was accounted for at the boats. Out of all of them, Alexander was certainly the one worse for wear. Zi was examining the wounds, trying to get it stabilized. What could you really do with shattered bone, though? A sling would just hurt everywhere.

”I'll be fine. Just hit me with the morphine in the kit, and I'll make it back to base for proper treatment.” Alexander said gruffly, though it was obvious his voice shook with the pain he was in.

Valencia gave one last look to the island as the last person to board the speed boats, before she shrugged, and hopped on the last boat.

An alliance didn't mean fighting your battles solo. She had bought them time, that was all she was expected to do. Now? The entire island would be evacuated of personnel. And no one died. That's all that mattered.

”We'll call it a draw, Sycamore.” She murmured as the boats started revving their engines, and pulling away from the shore…
@LanaStorm I'm pretty active on RPG, so you're more than welcome to PM me. Alas, I don't have a discord.




Great post, Qia! Looks like it's my turn again! I'll aim to have something up tomorrow or the day after.
I'll have a post up tomorrow!
