Also, what metal is the box with the spores in to made of? (The ones that you have to fight an octopus for) “Hey, Gambler!” Tondon calls, “what would I have to bet to get a spren matched to my personality? Also, would you be up for some low stakes games?” @Ancient Elantrian 8 minutes ago, Lotus Blossom said: haha i wasnt mad at you i was mad at tinker Quote Well, I didn’t get that, so Tondon really wouldn’t. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s already starting to question his optimism, but with the right prodding Corin can probably break him completely. 11 minutes ago, Edema Rue said: It's probably iron or steel.

Corin's fists were clenched so tightly they'd turned faintly white. When he spoke, it wasn't quite him. It was as if someone else was in control of his body. It was subtle, but the mannerisms were the tiniest bit off, the accent a tad less forced, the words more eloquent. "So you're a mistake. You aren't meant to be here. You aren't meant to be anywhere. You are a failure who should have done us the favor of dying long ago." 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is why I like discovery writing my RP characters. Apparently Tondon is a born Lightweaver, and I didn’t even realize. Huh. (like, look at him at the beginning of the thread. He’s nothing like how he ended up being.) Anybody know if this would count as a second oath once he swears the first? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
