Also! Regarding Afureru... I'm not exactly sure how hive mindy Abyssals are, or how much the Neverborn can gleam from recovering the fallen sparks. But if we kill Embrace, there is a good chance Afureru would revealed and things might get a lot harder.




I dont mind if you write it out and take credit. Lol Afureru has already diverted enough attention.

Yeah as soon as I posted I thought of something else. If we let her die as she is after what we saw the corrupted disease do, who's to say what happens to Aleifr's soul (from our character's perspective).

Canonically? The Deathlords can extract nothing from a shed Exaltation as it returns to its monstrance, and the next Abyssal doesn't get any memories of past Abyssal incarnations. WlfSamurai may have something else in mind, though.

And she might have more information about this corruption, if they are the cause. Like some second contagion.
 
I'm FINALLY joining the conversation here!

I can't see Makuro personally trusting Embrace, or being too happy with bringing her along. She might be an old friend of Toun and Sigrdrífa's, but Makuro barely knows her, and as mentioned earlier, he currently knows next to nothing about her power. Plus, there's the fact that Embrace seems to be inspiring hate boners in about half our party, Tyree included. Were it not for the fact that he could potentially learn more about this threat in Marama's Fell from her - which, I should remind you all, he was trying to do before everything went to shit for a second time - odds are he'd treat her as a liability to the group, at least in regard to the well-being of the Lunars.

Also, am I missing something? I got the impression that Embrace's 'aura' was just meant to be a little unnerving, and that the Silver Pact's knowledge on Abyssals was limited at this point in time. Yet Tyree, Afureru and the two Dragon-blooded all seem to be treating her like she's an armed nuclear bomb.

Afureru doesn't know squat aside from a few things that are popping into her head. And none of it she really understands. Much of her reaction is coming from her exalted sparks fear of discovery clashing with Afureru's own nature. Feeling something is very wrong, her first instinct is usually to just kill. Thanks to Zoya and Sigfrida she is starting to get her head back on right. Affy isn't exactly the most stable of people.

Embrace also explained a little bit about what she is. Enough that Aaki and Haze could have picked up on. As well as Embraces general antagonistic demeanor and an apparent citizen of this here shadowland.

Yeah, Aaki was reacting to the way the group reacted and worried about the Circle rather than the Abyssal.

Haze is a mortal. She's scared shitless of Embrace. An affectation from Embrace that the rest of the group isn't subject to as everyone else is an Exalt.
 
If I wanted to add some new forms to my list of available animals to shift into, are you going to require me to add to my Hearts Blood Merit, or do we just add to that through game play?
 
Thanks. Going off and killing some random animal and taking their form is going to be a good way for Tyree to blow off some steam and be somewhat rational for her future encounters with the party.
 
  1. Arctic hare
  2. Mountain goat
  3. Caribou
  4. Elk
  5. Deer
  6. Chinchilla
  7. Marmot
  8. Musk Ox
  9. Arctic fox
  10. Snow owl
  11. Brown bear
  12. Bobcat
  13. Eagle
  14. Sabertooth tiger
 
This is probably one of the most insane scenes I've ever had in Exalted. Maybe not, but close.

Is Sigrdrífa going to just let Embrace up as Toun draws both ladies up to their feat?

Random Word Random Word
 
Before I move the scene forward, I want to know if Sigrdrífa lets Embrace up. The Abyssal is well within her control.

Hmm, let's see. I'm not sure Toun has really made the case for forgiving her. She's declared herself an enemy, and Sigrdrífa was only allowing her to live long enough to answer Toun's questions. Toun would have to persuade her Embrace was somehow lying or wrong when she declared herself Sigrdrífa's enemy, or make the uphill case that there's a need to keep a deadly enemy alive as a prisoner, and so take significant risk.

He looked over at Zoya, wondering if she'd care to give her thoughts on the subject.

I'm holding off on moving forward in the main thread until Sigrdrifa has responded to Tuon. I like a fast pace, but this is some personal stuff and it doesn't serve any of os to rush it.
 
For what it's worth, my mental image when writing that post was lifting the two of them upright with the assumption Sigrdrifa maintained the hold the whole time, because that's just what you do in this situation.

Ah, okay. Then we proceed!
 
Oof, that will hit Afureru in her confused feels. If no one else would want to help her, Affy would. Even though she did just try to kill her moments ago.
