Orb post on the cusp of Midnight GHB 16 & 17

[thequestgiver]

[[There's nothing very visible in the orb. Light filters in a little through the cloth over it, but nothing enough to tell who's using it.

There's a long moment of silence before a voice speaks. It's faint. Distant and muffled and has an almost wispy quality to it.]]

Flow away, flown away, to where none can say.... to the wood, to the sea, to the peaks, to the depths... the walls crumble as we all fall down and down...

[[There's a pause before there's a soft laugh. It's hard to even tell what gender the person speaking is, through the muffling and the odd intonation in the voice.]]

It's all falling apart, isn't it? Time has warped, the walls are falling once more... falling falling falling...

[[another laugh. This one's a little higher pitched. Maybe it's a girl's voice? Then it suddenly drops down again.]]

I saw it all... from my tower high, I saw it all, but no one would listen... no one would listen and now it's all coming true, isn't it? Everything will fall again... again and again, we're locked into it, you see? Locked...

[[The voice cuts off suddenly. When it resumes, it's shaking.]]

I'll smash it all... never locked away again. Never never never--

[[and the orb suddenly goes black]]

Do you....?

Or will you just say you do long enough to shut me up?!

[dash_dynamic]

No, I really do want to help! I just don't know how!

[So. Confused.

And unnerved. Can't forget unnerved.]

Open your eyes and break your chains before you fall into darkness and die.


[[And with that, the orb goes blank.]]
