Perfect! Thanks you so much! This is so exciting!!

Indeed it is! Thanks for your patience and work with refining some of the lore.

We should be more or less setup now to get going.

I kinda see my mage trio as side characters. I don't yet know what role I want them to serve in the grander story, I like discovering that as we go.

 

[ps102]

Hey, @IgnitedxSoul. Your turn ends after tomorrow. Will you need more time?

 

[ps102]

Here are the edits to be made.

As usual, Delta was the last to arrive to the round table. She took a seat, set her arms on the table’s jet black finish, and began the conference with an announcement. “Queen Melina has captured the green fragment of Gaia,” she said calmly. “That, I must admit, is not something I expected to happen this soon.”

Alpha was the first to comment. “She and her government are fast.”

“And we’ve yet to even get a clue on the location of one,” said Beta. “How did she find two?”

Gamma made no comment. She only listened.

“Let us not panic,” Delta...

Olive, Katara and Ravenna followed Pria up the rocky cliffside path. Save for the distant roar of thunder, no words were spoken. Dark, grey clouds covered the skies and stretched far beyond the horizon, where they sparked and roared.

A single rain drop fell on Olive’s nose. She wiped it with her finger and stared at its spherical surface, then the dark skies. The wind picked up, whispering as it flowed through the mountains.

Pria continued to walk in silence, her hands clasped tightly. The droplets of rain increased in frequency and splashed on the dry rocks. It quickened with each loud...

She raised the stone in her mouth and consumed it → She held the fragment of Hemera against her chest and submitted herself to it. The fragment, with a radiant glow, vanished within Pria and became part of her.
-
A burning sensation appeared in the pit of her stomach then. → Suddenly, her chest burned; her heart quickened its pace.

I can make the above to my own post, but the other one needs to be done with your mod powers, @Louanne Learning

We thankfully didn't need many edits since most of the time, they are just referred to as "the fragments".

The first change is made. Thanks for finding it for us.

yes, you can do the second change, thanks so much.

While we're discussing revisions on previous posts, there's this post where Barnabas is taking notes about: "Subject H-01 was injected with fragment 002"

Assuming this fragment is a gear fragment, this might warrant a change as well considering they are now sufficiently large such that injection seems improbable.

As a member of the high court, Araspeth was officially employed by the city’s Central Royal Hall—a big building that housed various government departments. Many such halls were spread around the country, tasked with forming a local government to keep every part of the country in order.

Araspeth had much to file. She went there first thing in the morning and walked the main hall’s broad carpets, coloured red just like roses. On each side, pillars of fine stone extended up to the dome ceiling made of little stained glass panels. The coloured...

How did I miss this? Thanks for letting me know! We already talked about this and this line should be:

Subject H-01 was force fused with fragment 002

I'll make that change and any other like it. Thanks again for letting me know!

 

[Louanne Learning]

Thank you!!!

 

[ps102]

Okay, I'm dumb. This is not my post (even though I wrote it). I'll need your help again, @Louanne Learning

Subject H-01 was injected with fragment 002 -> Subject H-01 was force fused with fragment 002

Big edit incoming:

Ten seconds after injection fusion, subject showed signs of confusion. Ether network activity increased further during this time. Higher production of E-cells observed. Loss of control observed.​

Twenty seconds after injection fusion, Ether network activity increased exponential. Mental deterioration observed. Loss of control observed. Spatial distortions observed.​

​

Spatial distortions? Barnabas raised a brow and went on.​

​

Thirty seconds after injection fusion, Ether network activity continues to increase. Mental break down observed. Loss of sanity observed. Danger to environment highly likely.​

Thirty five seconds after injection fusion, emergency extraction of fragment performed. No immediate change in state. Fragment immediately sealed.​

​

Fourty seconds after injection fusion, Ether activity continues to increase. Spatial distortions reduced. Subject mental state continues to decline.​

​

End of log. Subject terminated on emergency. Experiment concluded fourty-three seconds after initial injection fusion.​

​

To this, add a line:

Force fusion series of experiments to brain dead subjects​

Log entry: 003​

​

Test Subject: H-01​

​

Test Sequence: 032​

I'll need your help again,

Done! Thanks for your help with this

I'm likely not going to have my post done until ~48 hours from this post. I thought I was going to be able to finish it today, but the schedule does not permit.

That's okay. Please take your time to write an awesome entry!

Wren followed the orange hooded mage into the pandemonium that Cliffcross had become. He couldn’t help but marvel at the stark contrast between the cacophony of distressed citizens and the serene yet haunting beauty of the city once frozen in time. The fire mage strengthened the ball of fire he had produced and lifted it higher, casting further light onto the street.

The people ran haphazardly around each other, calling out names and cursing at anything and everything. Livestock roamed the streets, flustered by the panic, tripping some of the people on their path. What transfixed Wren the...

Once again, you amaze! I really loved it. I was looking forward to when Wren and his crew would get back together.

Your posts have always been really good, but they've been even better lately. I'm glad you're one of the writers!

Now it's my turn. Let's see what I can do... after I sleep and study!

Excellent! Now we have Cliffcross in on the action! And the intrigue surrounding Wren grows...

Were those ghosts in the town the ghosts of the monks of Kodama Abbey?

 

[IgnitedxSoul]

I'm not sure to be honest, I was basing their presence on this line from ps102:

He stared back at her, wide eyed. He processed it all in silence until the discord of human screaming reached their ears. They looked at each other, ran up a small hill, and faced Cliffcross City, now unfrozen in time.

“What in the“—Olten paused when he witnessed hooded ghosts mixed among the living—“world?”

“Time flows again, only in a totally wrong way.”

 

[ps102]

They are. Arthur asked them at one point (I believe on the same post Olive was revived) to go and help towns that were in disarray due to the sun's dissaperance.

They don't have to stay permanently. Just enough to help. Also, the entire army of them isn't at Cliffcross. That wouldn't make sense.

 

[Louanne Learning]

All good! I love the way this story is developing!!

 

[ps102]

Post made. Goodness was that incredibly difficult! I struggled hard and it's certainly not really what I hoped for in this post, but it's a good prelude for what's to come for Sophia.

Looking forward to what you'll do with Ravenna and Katara, @Louanne Learning! I'm sure it will be a great adventure. I can't wait to see how you'll develop Katara.
