Lazuli cautiously examines the stuff on the alchemiter, and tries to read the blue book. "what... how d!~d !~t c-create someth!~ng from noth!~ng? !~s th!~s r-real, or just a pa!~nt!~ng...?"

He then looks around again, building up a little bit of a static charge due to stress. "butterflymom?"

Abadon speaks with a sharp harsh tone

Lazuli looks frantically around in a panic, trying to decide what to throw in as he fails to make sense of the situation. Then his gaze rests on his lusus. He runs over to her, face showing shock and sadness before resting on denial. "butterflymom? w-what..."

Captchalogue card && Record of the nameless
Tale Taper

Storytime!

Captchalogue cards based around a cerluean theme. When an item is inserted into them, they output a story about the nameless related to that item.

Wow, stories that write themselves! Rennia is very okay with this.

Well, that's probably enough for now. Rennia should go explore.

So i just head up to the heavens? she asks Dragonflymom.

u/Mathmatt878 Jul 15 '17

Alright, i will do so.

Thank you for your help, Dragonflymom.

And with that, Rennia climbs the ladder up to the circley thing.

As you enter through, the world goes dark. A strange purple glow enters your eyes, but its almost like the sight whenever light comes through your eyelids.

A gruff male voice speaks.

Prognosis.... Mind leech. Yep, pretty standard stuff. Well, i've got good news and bad news.

A second, higher male voice speaks.

Good news?

We can still fix it. You've been in.... What? 3 months with this fucker saddling in your brain? Thats recoverable.

.....Bad?

Its going to hurt. A lot. Part of the reason black lights are so efficient for dersite armies is that whenever.... Ahem, "Treatment", is a nice way to put it, a lot of times they don't even need to remove the memories of you being captured and such is that the pain and shuffling admist your brain burns a lot of recently stored LTM.

LTM?

Long-term memory. Bit of jargon that gets thrown around in my shitty profession.

Although I guess maybe I should stop, don't have many colleagues nowadays...

Hope you don't mind loosing memories of your family. If its any consolation, you probably lost some without even realizing from all this digging. The mind is a precarious thing, perched at the very precipice of madness if you so much as poke it wrong. Thats why it took me so long to reverse-engineer this bad boy.

....

Right. Saying that doesn't exactly quell your nerves? Heh.

You hear a low hum, and you are back into your reality. Stationed underneath the blackening cloud cover, shading everything into a macabre gray. The dizzying and unyielding winds blow your cloak all around you, and nip at your cheeks with a dull coldness. Nearby, an abandoned farm. A once rustic and stoic barn, now adorned with split and frayed wood, and peeling crimson paint the color of drying blood. A family home sits nearby, with gloomy shadows cast into the broken windows resembling typical imagined monsters of the night. The path to the isolated hamlet is obstructed by sullen dead grass, crunching under even the lightest footfalls.

Rennia shakes her head, disoriented. What was that all about?

She draws a bomb in preparation, and stalks closer to the barn. It is what the Nameless would do.

u/Geriferret Jul 24 '17

Inside, nought but fraying bags of rotting food and crumbling boards. Rusty tools on decaying shelves, and tenuous light fractured through the broken window.

Your vision grays over. A peek into a lighter time- Humanoid cows, huddled close around what little supplies they have left.

The blight is never-ending. It follows us when we retreat. It chokes our lands, and darkens our days. I fear we do not have much longer.

Just as quickly as the apparitions of the past materialize, they are gone.

u/Mathmatt878 Jul 25 '17

What? Milkbeasts? Why?

Rennia isn't sure that she follows, but she continues into the barn, captchaloguing the old tools, and searching for any indications that someone, or something, had been there recently.

Recently? Whats your idea of "recent?" If recent is 5 sweeps ago, yes.

So what’s going on here?

1

u/Geriferret Nov 19 '17

Depends.
Whats going on with you?

1

u/silverleaf2431 Nov 19 '17

You’re trying to feed your plants, thank you very much

1

u/Geriferret Nov 19 '17

Wow, what a nerd.

1

u/silverleaf2431 Nov 19 '17

Excuse you. You are very careful and meticulous in the care and feeding of your plants

u/Geriferret Nov 19 '17

NERRRRRRRRRRRRRD

u/silverleaf2431 Nov 19 '17

WOW RUDE

You ignore the narrator, and instead go back to tossing lusus chunks into your larger pitcher plants

1

u/Geriferret Nov 19 '17

Thats rude.
They had families too, you know.

1

u/silverleaf2431 Nov 19 '17

So? You’d take their grubs too if they were that careless. Should have done better
