[when he manages to find some time to himself omg Val]

So you know how you fucked off and became Asha and didn't tell me?

Well guess what I did yesterday.


[that evening]

[E-mail: Duncan]

You still having trouble with that god-tree?

[E-mail: Lera, Harriet]

You guys are each down a guild member just thought you should know! 8D

[turnsteptwirl]

I didn't tell you because I thought you were going to hate me or something, and...

Wait.

Does that mean you're a guild leader now?

[andlivefreely]

I was more upset that you didn't tell me but that doesn't matter now

Yup 8)

[turnsteptwirl]

I told you eventually. :( That has to count for something, right?

Are you going to tell me which one of us you are or are you going to make me guess?

[andlivefreely]

You told me because I found out you weren't on Earth when I couldn't text you, that hardly counts!

The one that everyone hates 8D

[turnsteptwirl]

I would have told you sooner. I just didn't know how to tell you that I wouldn't be able to come back. I seriously agonized over how to tell you that for a week, honey. :(

Please tell me that means Medena decided you got the womb, because the only other option I can think of is the Vairya.

[andlivefreely]

You know you really gotta quit thinking about shit so much and just do shit.

I don't think people hate the Vairya as much as they did Aerveas, but I could be totally wrong.

[turnsteptwirl]

Hey, I'm the Asha now. Thinking is kind of what I'm supposed to do, especially since thinking apparently let me figure out how to throw meteors at the Bastan wall. Did you know mages could do that? Because I didn't.

Well, she was on his side, although Aerveas was definitely more universally hated. You should have heard the crap he was saying when we went after him, honey. I have never wanted to punch someone that badly before.

[andlivefreely]

I thought thinking was an alchemist thing and mages just threw spells around but I'm serious there are some things you just can't dwell over and gotta do or say

I heard some'a the shit he said to Val so.

Apparently the druids only made him Vohu cause they were hoping to temper him with it or something, like that being able to hear the world itself would keep him from being totally infuckingsane. By the time they realized it wasn't working he had Mezzron and they weren't about to go against a God.

I turned those teeth into a necklace btw 8)

[turnsteptwirl]

It's not just throwing spells around. There's a lot more to it than that. :( [Gabe is pouting over here, Mal, not that you can see it]

I know, I know. I just didn't want you to be too sad.

Too bad the druids' plan backfired on them. I mean, it would have been nice if he actually did his damn job and helped maintain the balance of Zenderael, but apparently, he thought once he had the god-organ, that was it or something. I don't even know. He thought he earned the right to it just because he apparently tore it out the Vohu before him.

I'm telling you, setting his corpse on fire was probably the highlight of the war for me.

Oooh, you'll have to show me at some point! I want to see!

[firecracker_hopping]

Ah? What happened?

[E-mail: Harriet, Lera]

[andlivefreely]

I sorta got drafted.

By Medena. 8D

[E-mail: Mal, Lera]

[suddenly_science]

Yooou traitor!

Wait, what?

[E-mail: Harriet, Lera]

[andlivefreely]

Not my fault eating a godorgan took away my alchemy! 8(

[E-mail: Harriet, Malachai]

[firecracker_hopping]

You...

You became the Vohu?

[E-mail: Mal, Lera]

[suddenly_science]

fh;dfd;dpoepsnkl;

How did this come to pass?!

[E-mail: Harriet, Lera]

[andlivefreely]

Uh I ate a womb and it just sorta happened? 8D

No but seriously I went to see Medena and bring her an offering and she started asking me what I knew about the war and Aerveas, and talking about how the druids needed guidance and shit, then the next thing I know she's like 'how would you like the grave responsibility of guiding the poor misguided druids into the new era??' (I may be paraphrasing a little.

or a lot.)

[E-mail: Harriet, Malachai]

[firecracker_hopping]

[Mal was asked and accepted? She doesn't know what to think. She did, too, but she did so under duress. The others had it even worse. He's lucky. She is even faintly jealous.]

[But hey. She knows Mal. And he has Medena advising him. As long as he takes it seriously, which it seems like he is...]

Welcome to the ranks, then! How are you holding up? Have the other druids been accepting?

[Reply]

[inchesofevil]

Uh.

Yes.

Yes I am.

Motherfuckers can't figure out how to get rid of the damn thing, I think we've all just thrown our hands up at this point and resorted to sneaking around it.

[andlivefreely]

I could try talking to it next week sometime if you want 8D

[inchesofevil]

What good would that do?

[yes politely ask the tree to leave that will surely work, what is Mal even thinking?]

[andlivefreely]

Well I haven't had the chance to try talking to any of Pelusa's trees yes but all the other trees talk to me pretty well.

ps. I'm the Vohu in case that went over your head 8P

[inchesofevil]

[???????--oh.]

[oh, yes, that did go over his head. um.]

Holy shit. When did that happen?

Please tell me your circumstances were better than mine.

[andlivefreely]

Yesterday!

Medena kinda drafted me 8D

Pretty much just involved some discussion of the current druid plight and her asking if I'd take up trying to square shit away for them.

[inchesofevil]

Wow. Sounds like you got it easymode.

Not that I'm bitter or anything.

But yeah man if you wanna come and try talking to the tree for me, I'd appreciate it.

[andlivefreely]

Well I still had to eat a thing but at least I didn't have to dig it out of a corpse

I'm a god-hippy now 8D who better to talk to a god-tree!

I gotta do a thing in the undertow first though
