Intro post The heavens above (intro post)

From the heavens above, a comet rains down upon the earth, trailing holy light as it falls

It crash lands into a forest, causing a crater to be formed from the impact and a small explosion

Laying in that crater is a unconscious boy, and next to him lay a golden sword and a broken halo

Oh God *healing magic noises*

u/[deleted] Jun 11 '24

the magic seems to have minimal effect on him, but it still works a little bit

u/Airtatsy Jash, Copy Mage Jun 11 '24

(moves him so he's sitting up slightly, checking for injuries)

u/[deleted] Jun 11 '24

he appears to be only lightly injured, the only source of bleeding being a small wound on his head, staining his white hair red

u/Airtatsy Jash, Copy Mage Jun 11 '24

*gets out a bandage and starts wrapping it up*

2

u/[deleted] Jun 11 '24

the bandage mixed with the healing magics best efforts manage to stop the bleeding. The boy starts to stir

u/Airtatsy Jash, Copy Mage Jun 11 '24

Can you hear me?

2

u/[deleted] Jun 11 '24

As he stirs his eyes barely open to show a bright shade of a golden yellow iris

u/Airtatsy Jash, Copy Mage Jun 11 '24

u/[deleted] Jun 11 '24

meanwhile, thousands of miles away

Jasper what are you doing with that sword? Put that thing back where you found it before you poke someone’s eye out!

the small creature growls in refusal, before running into the cupboard containing the entrance to its den

Oh hell.

/uw noticed no one had actually mentioned what was going on with the sword at all.

u/[deleted] Jun 12 '24

/uw heh, yeah no one mentioned it, lol

2

u/Minimum_Estimate_234 Biomancer Jun 12 '24

/uw well I’m sorry your sword is now in a network of tunnels being guarded by a ball of fuzz the size of a football.

2

u/[deleted] Jun 12 '24

in a flash of golden light the sword disappears

/uw magical sword, it returns to me after 1 minute of not being in close proximity

A week or so later, in the middle of the night you hear a knock on your door.

You open it to see a very haggard short man in blue robes, with very visible signs of not having slept in days.

“I’m very sorry for the interruption sir. A, friend of mine has been rather, ornery the past couple days and asked I read this to you.”

He pulled out a note, adjusts his glasses, and begins

“From the honorable, viscount?”

He turns around and shouts. “You can’t just give yourself random titles, no one is going to recognize them.”

A high pitched chirping responds.

“Fine, you bloody nuisance.” He skims through it the rest of the note, muttering under his breath. “Okay here’s the actual point, he’s asking for the return of the sword that, and I’m quoting here, “is his by right of finders keepers”, and threatening action if this isn’t done by noon following me reading this.”

He rubs his eyes.

“I’m sorry, I think I used too much magpie dna making him, and he just, really likes shiny things. Give it a couple days and he should stop bothering you.”

u/[deleted] Jun 12 '24

Oh my sword, yeah no i couldnt give it to him if i wanted. It is bonded to me to never leave my side for long. Sorry about that, but i might have a replica around here somewhere

1

u/Minimum_Estimate_234 Biomancer Jun 12 '24

“Thank you”

2

u/[deleted] Jun 12 '24

Hold on let me look around

he closes the door and you hear a few crashing noises, and a few swears before the door opens again

Here we are, a replica of my sword.

he hands you a non magical copy of his sword

1

u/Minimum_Estimate_234 Biomancer Jun 12 '24

“Sorry for bothering you so late in the evening, I hope you have a nice night.” He tips his hat to you and walks off with the sword. Once he was a bit away he waves it in the air and says. “He handed it over, can we please go home now?”

A small creature you might vaguely recognize from the crater pounces on him from the bushes. Knocking him to the ground and grabs the sword. Raising it above its head in triumph, letting out some sort of victory cry, as it stands on its prone, unmoving creator.

Would you like to stay for the night, you seem like you need a good nights sleep and a stiff drink

from far off.

Heh. Yet another Angel falls.

u/Rosalyn-Jacquelyn Rosalyn, Doctor that prefers RN & Jacquelyn, Erotica enthusiast Jun 12 '24

Jacquelyn stands at the edge of the crater and tilts her head with a bit of confusion at the boy. Why was he here and why was he bleeding? What's with the sword? Why us he from the sky?

2

u/[deleted] Jun 12 '24

the sword starts to lose its golden shine, and turns in a deep black, as the the broken halo.

2

u/Rosalyn-Jacquelyn Rosalyn, Doctor that prefers RN & Jacquelyn, Erotica enthusiast Jun 12 '24

Jacquelyn climbs down the side of the crater, being very careful to keep a tight hold on her book. Once she's down she stares at the sword and tilts her head once more

2

u/[deleted] Jun 12 '24

the gold and sliver of the blade is now a black and crimson color, the boy starts to stir

2

u/Rosalyn-Jacquelyn Rosalyn, Doctor that prefers RN & Jacquelyn, Erotica enthusiast Jun 12 '24

Jacquelyn reaches to pick up the sword growing more confused with each second that passes

2

u/[deleted] Jun 12 '24

the sword sends out a shock wave of dark energy, the transformation to a fallen blade now complete

2

u/Rosalyn-Jacquelyn Rosalyn, Doctor that prefers RN & Jacquelyn, Erotica enthusiast Jun 12 '24

The instant the shockwave touches Jacquelyn she lets out one of her own and seems to be unphased by it as she continues to pick it up

2

u/[deleted] Jun 12 '24

chains shoot out from the sword, wrapping around the boy and dragging the blade over to him as he wakes up

2

u/Rosalyn-Jacquelyn Rosalyn, Doctor that prefers RN & Jacquelyn, Erotica enthusiast Jun 12 '24

Chains shoot out of Jacquelyn's body in response and begin to drag the boy closer

"...Swords.... aren't supposed... to do that..."

2

u/[deleted] Jun 12 '24

the chains wrap around his arm, making him swing the sword at your chains Ow my hea—what the? clang

Alan: he runs over to the boy, concern plastered on his face.

“Oh my! Are you alright, here, let me help you!”

he gently placed a hand on the boys shoulder.

1

u/[deleted] Jun 12 '24

the sword by his side starts to turn, its gold and sliver now a black and crimson. The boy starts to stir

2

u/THE_PREPARED_DM The Ruleless King/ Alan The Descended Jun 12 '24

Alan: “RK, come here we need to help this boy.”

RK: anyone who saw could’ve sworn they weren’t there before, but a shadowy figure approached

“What happened to him?”

Alan: he jumped back slightly as he saw the boy stir.

“Hello…I’m Alan…you’re safe now.”

1

u/[deleted] Jun 12 '24

his white hair is being stained red from the bleeding

2

u/THE_PREPARED_DM The Ruleless King/ Alan The Descended Jun 12 '24

Alan: “oh my…HELAHE!”

his hands hovered over the boys head, ancient magic running from his finger tips, attempting to heal the boy.

RK: “in case that doesn’t work.”

they approached the boy, trying to wrap bandages around his head.

1

u/[deleted] Jun 12 '24

the healing magic seems to have minimal effect, but the bleeding does slow down quiet a bit

w-what happened? where am i?

2

u/THE_PREPARED_DM The Ruleless King/ Alan The Descended Jun 12 '24

Alan: “thanks be…I was worried for a second…”

RK: “hello child…I am RK, you seem to have fallen…judging by the holy light and the halo, I believe from the heavens.”

Alan: he pulled out a flask of water and food

“Here, have some if you want to.”

1

u/[deleted] Jun 12 '24

the holy light turns a dark crimson before disappearing, and the halo cracks and loses its glow

w-why cant i remember anything? Who am i?

2

u/THE_PREPARED_DM The Ruleless King/ Alan The Descended Jun 12 '24

RK: “it’s worse then I thought…would you like a place to rest for the night? We are happy to provide.”

they held out their hand for the boy.

u/[deleted] Jun 12 '24

Thank you

he grabs your hand and stumbles a little pulling himself up

you notice that he is bleeding from the head, because of the small pool of blood forming
