NameIess Posted October 7, 2022 Report Share Posted October 7, 2022 Quote I've played Terrarria. Started playing more since 1.4.4 came out, but I've beaten the Moon Lord before.

Thaidakar the Ghostblood he/him Posted October 7, 2022 Report Share Posted October 7, 2022 Thaidakar's smoke form nodded next to Nameless, "yes... I knew this was going to happen- That's why I tried to prevent it from happening, much more time to talk to you without it. But, I guess I can wait for a bit." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Aspiring Archivist any Posted October 7, 2022 Report Share Posted October 7, 2022 Meanwhile in room D55: TAAron stabbed himself with one of the Hemalurgic spikes from the cookies. He was unsure of its purpose exactly, but he knew that it was made of brass, meaning it stored Feruchemical zinc, brass, copper, or bronze. He had a sample of each metal to test for use as a metalmind. He touched the first one, zinc. Immediately, he felt something odd. He could somehow tell that he could use this piece of metal. He did what felt natural, and began to fill it. He began to feel his thoughts slowing down, his mental speed deteriorating. It was like his thoughts were moving through syrup, still forming normally but taking many times longer to reach him and be processed. He stopped filling it, and his thoughts returned to normal. Woah. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Halcyon Girl she/her Posted October 7, 2022 Report Share Posted October 7, 2022 (edited) Haly followed the stranger down the hall. She had to hurry to keep up with his swoft pace. She liked this stranger. He was nice. He deserved the best of the world. It should bend itself to his will. For a second, something flittered kn her mind. She reached for it, but there was… something in the way. Her mind couldn’t go fast enough. Something was keeping her thoughts limited to some small bubble. It snapped back into place and the moment passed. He’s nice… he’d be a good leader… Down the hall he led her, in a stupor of thought… Karden stepped briskly, accustoming himself to his new surroundings. The clinic was nice… yes, it would do perfectly. He glanced back at his minion, the insipid, bare-footed girl who called herself Haly. Perhaps he’d let her live once she could do nothing more for him, as payment for setting him free. Or maybe he wouldn’t. Either way, he needed her now, so he’d cross that bridge when he came to it. Yes, life was sweet. And revenge would be sweeter. Edited October 7, 2022 by The Halcyon Girl 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to show this to Haly! He took his bag and a few brass rings, and ran out the door... and almost straight into a man he had never seen before. "Yes, I am... who are you? Have you seen Haly?" A bit nervous, he burned pewter and held tightly to his very slightly filled metalmind. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bookwyrm he/him Posted October 7, 2022 Report Share Posted October 7, 2022 Bookwyrm walked through the Library, restored by Lark after the second chicken invasion. He walked past the seemingly infinite shelves of sci-fi and fantasy novels, which were (very obviously) popular among the patients. He'd spent a lot of time here himself. But that wasn't what he was here for. He entered the non-fiction section. (Though with dimensional travel, what was fiction and what wasn't became blurred pretty quickly.) He walked past a few copies of books from distant worlds, even spying a copy of Rhythm of War, the original science journal that the fantasy novel was named after. He considered taking a look through it, but decided against it. There were other things he needed to check. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
