Sunless.

[K25fF]

What are you doing standing around?
There are walkers to kill.

Why did you kill them then? Did they attack you?

Fair point. But the last one left is unconsious, and it would be rude to murder it when it's insensible.

It's having bad dreams, poor thing.

And you killed them because they were there. Not for any noble reson, not any defendant's excuse, not for anything that can be named. They were there. You decided that they need not be there. You got rid of them.
It was mostly out of anger, because you were forced from the Sunless City by a superior opponent. Who you are so going to kill permanently.

[ZenFeline]

YOU ARE A DICK.

Obligatory perspective switch to superior opponent.

YOU ARE A DICK.

Yeah, sure we can do tha... No we can't.
It seems we'll be sticking around until he murders that walker. Or the walker escapes, which is the nicer alternative.





Begin.

[ZenFeline]

GTFO WALKER.

[Laron]

Walker: Have a terrible night terror about being chased around the world.

[mythLeader]

>WALKER: Continue to feign unconsciousness until the killer gets bored and leaves.

Walker: Have a terrible night terror about being chased around the world.

Yeah.
Nightmares got a whole lot more creative after you were told that a single person murdered your entire species.
That's not even Dziak himself. It's just the Archetype he styles himself after.

At least you know you're dreaming now and that you're sleeping somewhere safe.

>WALKER: Continue to feign unconsciousness until the killer gets bored and leaves.

GTFO WALKER.

An admirable plan, but you are wise to such tricks. You've even dropped your knife, to make sure that it starts to approach a fair fight. After all, it's no fun to be unchallenged.
And it's been a long time since you killed something with your bare hands. It might have been a guardian or something.

And the walker cannot escape, because he is asleep!

[ZenFeline]

... DEUS EX MACHINA: Occur and save the walker.

[K25fF]

... DEUS EX MACHINA: Occur and save the walker.

"Knight to E4."
"We're not playing chessss."



"Oh, really. I was sure they couldn't teleport in their sleep. A very bad dream it was, then. How interesting."

Well, the deities don't do much acting, so the management collaborated and got you the next best thing. Archetypal acts!
We spare no expense for your willing suspension of belief-defying occurences.
Note: this is so totally not going to turn out to be VERY important. At all.

[ZenFeline]

Nooooooooooow Camera shift.

[K25fF]

Nooooooooooow Camera shift.

Dutifully, the camera moves.


"What?"
"Where am I? Who are you? Please don't kill me."
"Wait, what?"

Last update for today, see you tomorrow. Thanks for being a lovely audience.

P.S. Zee plot, it thickens!

[Shadow Phoenix]

Can you identify the newcomer's specie ? > ask Guardian.
Guardian, come with the "wrapped gift"


Nice setting, btw.

>INSTINCTIVELY PUNCH THE NEW ARRIVAL IN THE FACE

You're a warrior, after all, or at least you have warrior traits. Though afterward you may want to

[Laron]

Who is this fine gentleman? How did he come to arrive in your presence madam?

[ZenFeline]

"... What?!"

[Son_of_Orion]

> Sveixid & Walker: Flip the fuck out.

[Trueblader]

>Don't kill man. Ask for information instead

It's a walker. You thought those were extinct. You have no idea why he's in your house, though.
"Who are you?"
"My name's Sveixid. Why are you here?"
"Bad dream. Running away. W-walked."
That answers almost no questions whatsoever. You could just...

>INSTINCTIVELY PUNCH THE NEW ARRIVAL IN THE FACE

>APOLOGIZE

You would, but he's too... he's just fainted from exhaustion, you think. Poor thing.

"I got your friend, mith."
"Yes, can you get your guardian to let me go and explain to me what that's doing there?"

Aaaaa seven commands in a day aaaaaaaaa!

[ZenFeline]

Friend: Be released. Names: Be gone over again.

[Tren]

Friend: Remain in the webs for a long time. Be teased a lot.
Guardian: Boggle at these shenanigans.

You are Sveixid, that is Zaraka and your guardian could probably be called Tivquek after your surname.
"What is that doing here?"
"It just appeared! I don't know."
"Also, can you not let your guardian do that again! It takes ages to get the slime out of my clothes! I'll be stuck with an arm like this for weeks! It's set nearly solid!"
"And I'll tease you."
"And that!"

[mythLeader]

>S&Z: Carry the walker to someplace more comfortable than the middle of the floor.

[ZenFeline]

Background of Walkers: GO.

"C'mon, let's shift him."
"Stop trying to show off your 'strongness'. I'll get him there."



"Hey, necromancy is cheating."
"Who says? Anyway, he isn't dead, so it's not necromancy proper."
"What did walkers do, anyway?"
"I think they were assassins or something. Very good ones too, what with the teleportation. Otherwise they farmed things and got jobs as postmen."

You will never EVER mention that you might slightly find his control of magic endearing. He's better at it than he thinks.
