We Are Our Avatars X (Closed, Ended)

As you wander around your own mind, the fuzzy nature of your left hand is constantly in the back of your mind. You can still feel it, but you know something about it is off. However, your attempts to think about it more closely fail as your thoughts seem to slip away like quicksilver when you do. You instead try to remember the fight where you lost it, that too a difficult task. You remember that it was long, though time seemed to lose it's meaning in the hectic and adrenaline-pumped fighting aboard your cramped spaceship. For a moment you can even see it before you, and it is a strange sensation to watch yourself fight. When the moment has passed you feel exhausted, and you quickly snap back to reality.

You wake up and look up at the ceiling that you can't quite remember seeing before. It takes you a moment of recollection before you realise where you are, and another to come to terms with your missing hand. You sigh to yourself and quickly glance around the room to see what the others are doing.

"Well, if there was a way for you to stop, I'd suggest not being a human." the woman chuckled, before saying, with a more serious tone, "If you worship the sun, don't be open about it."

"Now, where, how and why would I hide a sun?" Et asked the Doctor. She then replied to Robin by saying, "I do know what will happen, and bringing the sun back won't stop it. Accelerate it, in fact. You don't have to get the sun back." Then, Et looked at EMily and said, "I know considerably more than you do, and bear that in mind when I say you are wrong." Hearing Beak's accusation, Et frowned and replied, "I didn't kill Calibeth, someone else did the honours."

[color=32127a]"Well, Anik asked about what happened when the other gods appeared, and she directed us to Vesh. She also said the sun isn't necessary for this world's survival. Anik also has a theory about this goddess, based on her heart or whatever it is Anik sensed."[/color]

Shara would see Rebecca idly disassembling her gun, while speaking to her fan, though Shara would only hear Rebecca's side of the conversation. She would likely be able to pick up on the fact that the two of them were discussing their new companions.

"Is there something going on up there?" Robin asked.

 

[Silence]

Anik started off saying "She ...", not knowing Timea had addressed Mochán, but quickly trailed off when Mochán spoke his sentences. She frowned at this, kind of realizing what was going on.

She still kept quiet after Mochán had finished, expecting Timea to address her directly, and thinking what Timea thought about the hint towards Aniks ability.

 

[Slenn]

"Easy there, Beak. We don't want to yell here and make accusations."

"That's fine with me since I'm a scientist. But where does life get its energy, if it doesn't come from the sun? And what's being accelerated if the sun is returned?"

"Well, I don't worship anything, so I haven't anything to worry about, there. And I do think I'll be able to deal with the other issue. So all in all, I think I'll do just fine." Timea commented, thinking she was ahead of the woman when it came to finding not being human would be a good idea.

"...Now, I know I said that was the last question, but your first bit of advice brought something to mind again. I've noticed Calibethian people smell differently than people from Kaisir. Do you know why this is?"

At Mochán's answer, Timea looked quizzically at him, confused by two things he said. One was mention of Anik's abilities, this adding to the theories she had on how Anik was able to walk around without bumping into anything. The second was the sex pronoun used to refer to Et.

""She"?" Timea repeated, questioningly. "Who did you speak to?"

Village - Day 2 - 19:47

The Vesh'Rah woman walked a short distance from the inn, away from the Calibethans, then said, "Well, you see, that's because the Calibethans were created from the dirt by the sun god. The Kaisiri came from the seas, and Vesh'Rah were born from the animals already roaming the island of Vesh, both by the moon goddess."

Day 3 - 09:36

"Yes, lots of things." Et said to Robin, then she looked at EMily. "From below, not from above. And, you can probably work that out for yourselves if you learn about the Vesh'Rah."

[color=32127a]"We spoke with a freckled woman, with pointed ears and blue hair. At least, that's how I perceived her. What did you see?"[/color]

 

[Gearhead mk2]

"What killed the sun God?"

 

[Slenn]

EMily tilted her head down and rubbed her chin with her right hand. She was perplexed by this information.
"Hmmm.... How long has the sun been creating light for this world?"

 

[ShindoL Shill]

Village - Day 3 - 09:37

"Someone that wasn't me. And the sun was burning for around 600 years before dying." Et replied.

Timea thought over the woman's answer, wondering if this information was relevant, or even true. Having no reason to believe it was not so, but also not seeing how it could be significant yet, Timea committed the information to memory, but didn't think on it further. "I see. Well, that's all the questions, I'll let you get on with your day. Have a nice evening, madam."

With that said, Timea left to get Hillary, and would leave the village after that.

"A human man. Tall, taller than myself. He wore robes that was a little like the kind I've seen clergymen here wear. ...But also clothes that looked like the came from my world, underneath that," Timea recounted after some thought, taking a little longer than usual with her mind not fully active yet. "So, in short - this." she added, then took on the form Et used when he appeared to Timea, the change taking three seconds.

"So either the deity you two spoke to was a different person, or he cobbles together a form from whatever it has seen for the sake of it", she added, also using Et's voice, then reverting back to her default form. "The second option is the more likely one, I think."

After saying this, Timea looked to Anik. "Now what was this about sensing hearts?" she asked, and as an afterthought added Anik's name, so Anik would know she was addressed.

 

[Slenn]

"Only that long? Were there suns before that? And if sunlight doesn't matter for life, why do the plants have leaves if they must have sunlight to produce sugars?"

 

[Demonjazz]

John had an expression of actual shock as the goddess mentioned something happening from below "Wait! Is something happening with the core of this planet! Cause I know my conspiracies, and I know how to spot them, and I can tell you that that clarification of coming from below is hiding some very big secrets behind it!"

 

[Godzillarich(aka tf2godz)]

The Doctor's eyes widened at the goddesses response "600! That is way too short for sun what the blimey is going on with this galaxy. The doctor then pull out his sonic screwdriver. "Stop being cryptic and tell us what going on"

 

[Slenn]

"Doctor, I don't think she's going to be threatened by that at all. And we're in a different universe altogether. The rules where we come from may not apply here."

 

[Silence]

Anik stayed silent for a while, thinking, before answering:
"I ... can sense hearts. Just like that, no real explanation. I feel them pulsating. This is how I knew you were dead for a few seconds.
I actually planned on telling you before, but it kind of got lost in the situation. I owe you that explanation. It's why I was this hostile to you at the beginning ... I know what people are feeling. Some of it, at least. The things ingrained in your heart. Without the why.
... I don't know if you understand what I'm saying, but I think it's the best I can explain it.

Now, to the god, there were actually two things: Her heart felt like parts of it were missing. It just was not complete somehow ...
And when I tried to sense her echo, I did not hear what Mochán is describing. It seemed like a faceless creature, with a hole in its chest. It probably had some kind of optical illusion, that did obviously not work on me. Might explain the different appearances, too. Although her voice was definitely female."

She was silent after this, dreading Timea would explode in her face again, after she had listened to this new information about Anik. Her fingers nervously played with the cane.

"So most of this power comes from the earth itself..."

"Yes, no, and just because they don't need it doesn't mean they can't use it." Et said to EMily, before responding to John. "No, and I'm not hiding secrets. Just things you don't know yet." She smiled widely, then turned and scowled at the Doctor. "Ask nicely, and give me a good reason to."

[color=32127a]"The woman I saw dressed in a similar kind of way. Clothes from my world underneath a robe that I'm willing to bet is from this world. More than that, she looked like someone from my home world."[/color] the cat replied, looking over Timea's imitation of Et.

 

[Godzillarich(aka tf2godz)]

The Doctor walked up to EMily And whispered in her ear."I'm trying to bluff her, shut up please" The doctor then turned back towards the goddess. "don't mind my friend she has no idea who I am and what I'm capable of. Do you know what I am God? because you're not the first so-called God I've met in my journeys."

 

[Gearhead mk2]

Robin quietly sighed as the Doctor got confrontational.
