You seem like a perfectly serviceable sapient being to me! Eye's missing, it appears, but that's hardly an insurmountable ailment, why some of the greatest fighters I've ever known were missing an eye.
But I digress. What may we call you, good fellow?

I guess I should introduce myself??

I'm Sky. As you're voices in my head and not dragons, I guess I should explain me being a dragon and what that means.

I was born with some weird birth defect or something that gave me wings. Of course, that's not the only weird thing about me; you've probably noticed the eyepatch. Yeah, I also lost my right eye.

So I tend to stick out a lot in crowds. It's kinda annoying. You might think, "oh, I wish I had wings," but trust me, you don't. Sure, it's cool and all, but nobody's gonna be there to teach you how to use them. They're essentially useless and they get in the way, like you're always carrying a twelve foot wooden board on your back.

I'm rambling on, aren't I? Sorry. Anyway, I suppose I should ask YOU some questions; questions like, "Who are you?" and "Why can I hear you in my head?"

well if it means anything I think your wings are beautiful but as for you questions

>Who are you
Voices... head voices... not really sure what else to say here

>Why can I hear you in my head
Don't know, maybe your the chosen one, maybe it's stress, or maybe someone decide to pull a prank on you and hit with a spell or something that resulted in us. Take your pick because at this point your guess is as good as mine.

You wouldn't believe us if we told you, and most people regret hearing the answer. So, that's all you need to know about 'the voices,' but we still need a few more details. Such as: Where do you live? What is your purpose in life? Do you want to learn how to fly?

Not sure what to tell you about who we are. As for why you can hear us, we're around to help you with something. That something is not always apparent to start though. We can try to help you learn to fly until something more major decides to show itself.

We are The Voices(tm), also called the Trainers of Great CHANgers, it means that we are going to make you a hero! and a pervert, and social reject, but you kinda are that last thing, so less work for us. Tell us about your species and world.

we are humans that are using a website called tgchan to help different people from different worlds make decisions.

It's something, but hey, you don't have to listen to our fellow /b/ro.

Do... do you have hands? How long have you been alive? How have you not figured out how to fly through trial and error yet? What have you been doing with your life?

There's probably some explanation for our presence, but I highly doubt that it will be relevant any time soon.

A force of change, diametrtically opposed to stasis and ennui and, uhh, usually benevolent. There's no real explanation for your second question, unfortunately, as it's not really a universal process.
Nevertheless, we'd like to help. What with, is entirely up to you, my good friend dragon.

Not a single thing you're saying makes sense nor is any of it reassuring towards whether or not I'm going insane.

I'm just going to pretend I never asked that question.

>learning how to fly
I wanted to, but that was a while ago. I kinda gave up on the idea after about 15 years of not making any progress. Not even magic could help. Whiiiich actually brings me to:
>what do you want to do with your life
I'm just going to throw it out there and say that magic is fucking awesome. That's why I'm here actually; the "Leff Academy of the Arcane Arts," or for short, Magic School. Young dragons such as myself come here to learn how to use magic. I personally work extra hard because I dream of one day becoming a powerful mage, capable of casting giant beams of flames and earthquakes and stuff. Of course, I'm not quite there yet.
>where do you live
I live in the town of Eriff, a small place full of strange people, some you might not want to spend time around. Ever.
I have friends, of course, although the reason we're friends might be because we're all social outcasts for our own reasons.

If you never figured out how to do it after trying for that long I'm going to guess that your wings are too small for your size. You will definitely need magic. Either magic to make you lighter, or to counter the effects of gravity on you, or maybe just wind to push you up and around.

Oh, if you started hearing us when you entered the school then we're probably formed from ambient magic.
Hey, can you get that eye healed via magic?
Who's gonna be your first teacher?
You're adorable, by the way.

So what were you doing before you started hearing us?

Do you think it's magic you hear us?

>>702443
I really doubt that. If I were to explain why, it would probably involve an essay of explanation on how magic in this world works. I guess i'll put it into simple terms:
Mana is absorbed into the body through numerous methods, which is then used to assemble "Magic Circles," which are magical rings that contain a map for creating spells. For instance an Aether Sphere, one of the most basic spells you can learn, is composed of the elements Wind, Aether and Motion, compiled into a Utility type spell. This spell creates a sphere that you can use to carry objects or cast spells more easily. It's the first spell many magicians learn.

I should also explain that Aether is the physical form of Mana, and is only for really simple and barebone spells, or spells that involve manipulating magic.

There are 3 types of spells: Passive, which are spells that affect the caster directly, Active, which are spells that act immediately, such as projectiles or object creations, and Utility, which are spells that don't belong into any category. If you forget to use these symbols in your magic circle, it'll just...not work.

So you want to be a wizard do ya? That's good, I've never understood why anyone wouldn't become a wizard when magic exists. We know where you're headed long term, but where are you going right now, to class or what?

OK, How did you loose your eye? If that's not an important part of your past, then, nothing is. Also, can your people walk in your hindlegs? even for a bit? a cant see them casting and using tools as quadrupeds...

"Hey guys."
"Well FINALLY! What took you so long?"
"I was, uh, busy."
"Alright, whatever."
That dude is King. There's nothing "different" about him, but that doesn't mean he isn't a good friend.

On the far left is Amy. She's blind, but she can still "see" through a spell called Clairvoyance.
"Well, don't just stand there! Sit down already."
That's Vess. She's c--cool.
"Hahaha, yeah, she's right. It's weird for you to just stand there, Wingdude."

Well, what are you waiting for? Go enjoy lunch with your technicolor buddypals.

I mean it with all my heart. THAAAANKS.

Told you to take a seat before you made a scene. So I guess you could try to steer this conversation back on track and see what your friends are up to

Ask Amy if you look different! Maybe she can see us.

(also you should put something somewhere in multi-part updates to show that it's a multi-part update and how far along it is. Like a 1/4, 2/4, etc. Most authors put that in the subject field.)

>>702989
"Dude, no more collapsing." This... is not the first time that happened?

So, whats your next class?

You're welcome.
Maybe before you try learning magic you should try learning to be, like, a normal dude, who doesn't collapse in front of his friends for no reason. If you're going to go nuts and start hearing voices you could at least make an effort to hide it.
Aww... the red guy cares about you, that's nice. You should really just have a seat now.

Say, completely unrelated to all this, but how do dragons reproduce?

Do you know why they're here?"
"No...? Why!?"
"They're here because something terrible is about to happen, Sky. Right now marks the beginning of your 'quest.' I need you to promise me that you'll be prepared for whatever comes your way. Okay?"

Thank you for that introduction Amy, and for reassuring Sky he's not nuts.
Soo, I feel like we should ask if Amy knows any more about this danger, or if we're basically blind...
Incidentally...Weird question, but can you breath fire Sky?

>>703206
Whoa, that's more static than usual.

Okay now that we know this is a disaster scenario and not one of those social challenge situations, we need to get some information about your capabilities, Sky. What magic can you cast? What magic do you know the others can cast? What about physical combat?

>something terrible is about to happen, Sky.
Oh, it's not that bad, you don't even need half of those organs!

But seriously though, when you're with us you have the absolute best protection around; plot armor quick thinking and sound advice. Whatever happens we'll keep you in good shape, or rather, tell you how to keep yourself in good shape. Heck, you might even have one of those heroes journeys or whatever, and like, grow as a person and stuff.

Are you prepared for a potential disaster? Do you have supplies? Weaponry? Reagents for doing magic junk? If for some reason you needed to suddenly go on an extended camping trip would you be ready?

Anyway, nothing bad has happened yet, so we're in the clear for now. In the meantime you may want to consider putting the moves on the pink one, or maybe the red one.

Wait a minute how does she know this stuff? Do they teach first years about extradimensional creatures in this school?

She's gone. My sight appears to be returning, slowly.
Breathing fire sounds impractical, but I can use fire spells.
>What magic can you cast? What magic do you know the others can cast? What about physical combat?
Lots of magic. I'm one of the best mages in the school. I'm not the best physical wise, though. King is super strong, but he admits to being weak with magic. I've never seen Vess cast any spells, so I can't gauge her magical strength either. However, the spell Amy just cast was insanely complicated and would have taken more mana than I actually have right now. I have a feeling she's stronger and/or smarter than she lets on.
>Are you prepared for a potential disaster? Do you have supplies? Weaponry? Reagents for doing magic junk?
I could afford to get some mana crystals; I can't rely on natural mana regeneration when in a hurry.
>In the meantime you may want to consider putting the moves on the pink one, or maybe the red one.
Very funny.
...maybe you're right, though. I have no idea how the next few days or even hours will play out. I can't keep this a secret forever...

Maybe Amy has her own extradimensional connections.

>Lots of magic. I'm one of the best mages in the school.
What would be an example of one of your better attack spells, or of your defense spells? Do you have any particular spellcasting specialty?

By the way, I noticed your Aether Sphere spell can lift things. If you made an enlarged Aether Sphere (or a lot of small ones), would you be able to lift yourself or something large enough to stand on?

>>703251
The fact that Amy knows about us at all means she knows a lot more than she should. Maybe she's been going through the entire academy library. Hey, how good is healing magic? Maybe she's been researching magic so intently to try to find a way to heal her eyes.

Definitely talk to Vess about your crush. No time like the present.

I think you might be on to something.
I've never thought about it before, but what if I increased the complexity of the aether sphere to house a fourth element? There's so many possibilities and uses...
Oh, and for my powerful offensive spells, I should talk about this new one I came up with earlier. It involves layering a fireball spell with a shockwave spell, causing the fireball to explode into a blast of fire. Of course, when I first used it, I had to be very glad that the area was fireproof.

so how long is that spell going to leave you blind, because if shit's about to hit the fan you should at least get some lunch so you don't have to do this shit on an empty stomach.

Also now that you're alone are you a guy or a girl? Because I was sure you were a girl until you said you had a thing for vess

Might be a good idea to give us a rundown of the elements you know. Perhaps we can help brainstorm some new spells.

>>703312
Vess! We swapped to you? Oh this is convenient. We were just talking to Sky.
Okay here's the jist: something awful is going to happen soon and we're an extradimensional group of entities called The Voices, sent to guide a select few through the disaster and maybe do some good in the process.

Hey, what are your thoughts on all your friends? Sky said he doesn't know what magic you can use, could you tell us about that?

well if we jumped to you it's a safe bet that we might jump to them as well at some point so it's nice to actually know about them so we don't have to spend 20 minutes playing 100 questions.

>why would Sky want to know how good I am with magic!?
Well Sky said he was the best with magic, King was the strongest of you, and that he doesn't really know what you can do. And seeing how we were told shit is about to hit the fan soon we'd like to know what you can do just incase shit get's as bad as people are saying.

>>703332
that you're c--cool

>>703325
We don't know what bad thing is going to happen, only that it's bad. Amy told us that. We have expertise in dealing with stressful situations with a clear head, and a large amount of practical knowledge, but no knowledge of the coming events and little knowledge about how magic works in your world, unfortunately. Heck we're still learning about your world in general.

We'd like to know how good you are with magic because we want to know how capable you are in dealing with dangerous situations, if it comes to that. You could always serve a support role.

As for why I want to know what you think of your friends, well, you're gonna work as a group right? It'd be good if we know how well you get along with them. It'd also give us a different perspective on everyone, which is helpful for communication.

Also Sky thinks you're cool so I wanted to know if you feel the same way about him.

>Something awful? Like what!? I think inhabiting my brain is awful enough!
Hey! I resemble that statement. We're the good part of this whole ordeal. Like a beacon of light in this dark chaotic world, we illuminate the path to ultimate success with our incandescent rays. And no we don't know what's going to happen.

>Did Sky, uhh...

stop lying to meeeee

>>703356
Why do you find it hard to believe that someone thinks you're cute? Okay here's the exact sequence of events. We asked him to introduce his friends, and he said:
"That dude is King. There's nothing "different" about him, but that doesn't mean he isn't a good friend."
"On the far left is Amy. She's blind, but she can still "see" through a spell called Clairvoyance."
"That's Vess. She's c--cool."

Then we called him out on having a crush on you and he turned beet red and collapsed from embarrassment. Kindof like you're doing now.

But I mean if you don't believe us go ask him. If he's not COMPLETELY stupid he'll say yes he thinks you're cute. I mean you're about to go into a who knows how dangerous situation so you gotta seize the moment.

Fine then. We'll just tell him you're all kinds of not interested and it sounds like you're an experienced liar to boot, since you gave us unsolicited advice on the topic and all.

>>703356
ah, you two even blush the same. so cute~

But yeah if you want us to talk about something else maybe you should change the subject... or we can keep talking about your feelings for your friends and vis versa.

If you want a handy subject to change to, the reason Sky was wanting to know how good you are at magic is that us being here is a sign of Great Danger or something like that, so it is useful to know ahead of time how good you are in a fight.

well if it makes you feel better we are kind just as lost as you are since we just popped up with little to no idea what the hell was going on and then told shit is about to hit the fan. The only difference is we just kinda went with it. Besides I doubt everything is going to go bad all at once.

everything isn't on fire and I don't hear any screaming. You got time. If you want something to start the conversation tell him you hear us and from there ask him about the things we've been saying. He'll probably deny that he said anything because he's afraid you'll say no and he'll lose any chance he has to get with you so tell him how you really feel. I mean you guys have been friends for how long? worse that could happen is you have one day or one week were things might be a little awkward and then everything goes back to normal but what most likely will happen is once he finds out you have feelings for him as well he'll come clean.

After that we can worry about everything going pear shaped.

ok I'm just going to get this out of the way now so we don't have to deal with it later but we went over to Vess while you were blind and found out she has feelings for you as well but doesn't think you like her.

I'll just wait for you to finish freaking out before I say anything more.

Hey, we were with Vess earlier. Have we mentioned that we are bad at keeping secrets?

By the way, good going with the explosive fireball. From experience in other dimensions, a spell like that is likely to become extremely popular (at least, among the people who can cast it instead of having it cast at them).

Naw, we're great at keeping secrets, but we tend to do whatever is best for our host(s), even if that's letting slip a few minor secrets of theirs. If you ever told us any really important secrets we'd keep them safe.

At least we can still tell him he needs to push it to the limit! Past the point of no return.

Sky, do you know any spells that might help with this? Particularly ones that locate things, improve hearing or eyesight, or boost speed?

king and Vess are easy, head back to the lunch room and grab them. Then see if they know where amy disappeared to and grab her quick.

>>703531
Organize a meeting spot. If Sky is already heading towards Amy, pick a halfway point between her and you, so that you get there just a little after Amy is retrieved. Then you can head for shelter.

If Sky is just kindof looking around then contact Amy yourself and relay her position to Sky.

Oh good. Well, time to either get to a shelter you can reinforce with magic, or set up a powerful protective spell that will keep everything out.

If Amy wants to meet up she already has a good idea of where you are. I suspect she has some other way of taking cover. Maybe she hid herself in a pocket dimension or something?

Vess, you still haven't told us how good you are with magic. What spells do you know, aside from the communication spell?

Hello again, seems we've jump back to you. Your friends should be fine seeing as you ok. But for now, is there anyone else around you or are you alone?

>>704982
Sky shielded them, to save them from what was, apparently, not horrible death?

So they're still about where they were, methinks. Where are you, now, that's an interesting question. Give us a looksee, will you? Starting with the sky, probably, to see if you're on your world still or not.

Well, there's King a little off from me. If I didn't know any better, I'd say he's just sleeping again. Not out cold or anything.

Out of the question; there's no way this is the same place; I mean, there's purple grass. Or is it even grass? I honestly don't know.

It's hard to see anything in the distance. There's, like, fog or clouds or something.

>>705050
Right. So. Why was Sky's eye like that? Do you even know?
And you still haven't told us your capabilities. Are you good at magic? Know any spells aside from the communication one?

Go say hi to King and get your "holy crap we're alive what happened" conversation done, then maybe call up Sky. If that doesn't work, try asking if he knows where Sky went?

You could try calling Amy again, too.

Well you should probably wake king and see if he's ok.

long story short, no idea. We just found out the world ended or something, Amy knows more then she let on, and right now we're just trying to pull everyone back together so we can figure out WHAT is going on.

Tell him we'll let him know everything once we manage to find someone to fill us in. All we know is Sky foresaw and saved us from some sort of apocalypse type event. At least that's what we think happened.

>>705700
At least tell him about us, the body-hopping collection of voices. We might wind up hopping into his head, so him being warned about it means he'll be less worried when it does happen.

Since I've got nothing better to do, I guess I'll finally start answering you guys.

I honestly don't know. He never directly tells anyone, just says it was "an accident." It's kinda creepy, to be honest.

I really like spells that involve moving things. Why? No idea. I guess I just enjoy being in control of what's in my way or what isn't.

Hoo boy, time for medical attention! Stop the bleeding and patch those holes in his wings. Are those claw wounds on his hand and leg? There might be animals nearby, so one of the two of you needs to keep watch.

Is... is that the floor he was standing on when the calamity hit?

So, are you or king any good in healing magic?

damn, must of took all the magic backlash himself when he throw up that shield to protect everyone. Hopefully it looks worse then it is but as for now, see if anything is broken and if you can get him awake, Don't try and move him unless you're sure it won't make things worse.

Also maybe related question but what happens to someone when they use to much magic at once?

>what happens to someone when they use to much magic at once?
N-nothing r-really, b-but there is a side effect if you t-try to use more mana than you have--mana corruption, it's called. I can see signs of it on his b-body--what kind of crazy shit did he save us from!?
>So, are you or king any good in healing magic?
Literally nobody is good at h-healing magic--it was discovered last year and it's, like, s-super complicated; even then it only speeds up h-healing, it can't do anything instantly...
...I also don't--I gave him all of my mana, so even if...
"What in the actual fuck happened to him!?!"

you're acting like he's already dead. Look we probably know just as much about healing as you do but still actually get closer to him and see if you can't get him to at least wake up. This looks bad but I doubt he's a goner yet. Just tell us everything you can see that is wrong with him and we'll do what we can to help but we're depended on you to do anything so if you fall apart now then we can't do anything ether so try to keep your head on straight for now and let's see what we all can do to help him.

Have you Tried turning him off and on again? Maybe you can just throw some water on him?

>>705895
The grey mottling is the mana corruption, I'm guessing? There has to be something you can do for his wounds... are they still bleeding? Maybe you can take some of the tall grass here and bind his wounds with it. I'd suggest applying pressure manually but you guys walk around on your hands and feet so that'll just get dirt in the wounds and infection is really dangerous.

Tell King that Sky shielded you from the world shattering. This place must be whatever filled the void.

Maybe you can get King to lift you up so you can see further? If you can find signs of civilization you can bring Sky there for medical treatment.

>>705895
Well if you don't do anything for his wounds you may never have the chance to tell him how you feel.

First things first... make sure that he's just unconscious.

He's still alive, but he won't be if we just stand around. We gotta get him somewhere, uh, safer."

>We gotta get him somewhere, uh, safer.
then move him, if we can't help then you might as well try and find somewhere to try and patch him up.

Look around, for somewhere safer, quickly. Is there a hill or something around, or is it just plains in all directions? If there isn't some place that seems relatively safe, maybe you shouldn't move him...

Also try to calm down, it doesn't seem that there is any immediate danger right now. Maybe you can find something to try to stop his bleeding at least?

Okay, yeah, I... I need to calm down.
...
...I should, uh, assess his injuries, I guess.
He's still breathing, but he's bleeding pretty bad. Some visible side effects of mana corruption are on his right arm and tail. Other effects we won't be aware of until he wakes up include amnesia, dizziness, headaches, impaired vision, inability to regenerate or use mana, and other crappy stuff. Ugh, I sound like a freakin' medicine commercial.
There's what seems to be...burns?--On the entire top half of his body, like he was hit by a giant blast of fire from above. His eyepatch is gone, and his eye--erm, lack of one, is also bleeding.
He also seems to be cut in a few places, and he has holes in his wings too...
This is starting to make me nauseous...I really d-don't like looking at him like this...
...we need a plan or something; we need to find somewhere, or something, that we can use to, uh, help him.

>>706974
You need to scout the surrounding area, then, to find traces of civilization.

Or maybe ask Amy if she's got some information that can help. She just showed up. Behind and to your right.

Is there a nearby hill you can climb to see more of your surroundings?
Can you carry Sky if you need to, and would that risk injuring him?

>medicine commercial.
Does that mean that there is medicine for that sort of thing if we can find civilization? (For that matter, does that mean you have telecommunications?

Well king is strong so have him carry sky when you start moving. As for where to go, look towards the horizon, all of them, do you see smoke or anything that might suggest people are living there.

The important thing is he's a man that can direct you to the nearest hospital. On the way you can maybe ask where the hell you are.

His name appears to be Cyrus. Ask if he can help you.

ask Cryus for for help, your friend needs medical help ASAP. If we can just get a roof over Sky's head I'm sure he'll be fine after a couple of days. Although some medicine and a doctor or two wouldn't hurt things much either.

Ask Cyrus if he is from around here. Say that you are not, and where you come from having wings doesn't have any special significance. What does it mean here?

Oh well, there's nothing for it except to move forwards.

You need sunglasses or something.

so quick question, still 2 taps for no 1 for yes. Do you feel ok? Because you kinda look like crap right now.

Alright, Try to be calm and press forward. If you are wondering where you are, I'm afraid we know as much as you do right now.

If you are feeling uneasy or uncapable, don't push yourself.

Yeah Yeah he doesn't look good, last time we saw your friends King and Vess they were doing fine so you dont have to worry on that front at least.

"Holy shit, you're AWAKE with all these injuries?"
"I...uh...where am I...? Wh...why does everything hurt...? ...why are you here?"
"I, uh, recommend not moving, or speaking, or doing basically anything that requires moving. A normal person would be dead with this level of injuries, let alone conscious."
"He's right. You're seriously lucky to be alive, kid. Especially given where you are."
"You never did actually tell me that."
"Tell you what?"
"Where we are."
"Oh. Well, hmm. I can tell you're not from around here, at least; your accents are like nothing I've ever heard before."
"Is that an insult?"
"Only if you don't like how your own voice sounds. Anyway, you'll find we're in the Oro region."
"Okay? I don't know what that is."
You and me both, King.
"You're kidding."
"Nope!"
ugh, I feel like I got split in half and then some terrible surgeon somehow successfully put me back together. The fuck did I do last night?

maybe you brought everyone to a different world... or moved through time. More then likely not but since I brought it up what exactly where you trying to cast when you through that shield up? Did you try and teleport and if so did you have a destination in mind?

Also what happened to Vess? Last I saw she was trying to get the local there to actually help you since he wanted nothing to do with you on the count of your wings.

>>714680
I think you shielded a small area from the end of the world. That area then wound up in a different world entirely, probably because it had nowhere else to go.

Sky, do you remember reading that text in your dream? Did it make sense to you? Otherwise I suppose we'll have to decode it. It's a small text sample though, I'm not confident decoding will work.

Well, I don't know if it was last night, it's kind of hard to tell, But at least it seems like you tried to shield your friends from something, It seemed like a good idea to you at the moment, and apparently it worked.

At least you are alive, and it seems you will have time to get better. And Vess seems to be fine

Speaking of wings.. You lost them?

>>714783
I still see them. There should still be a couple holes in them though.

Why do I get the sneaking suspicion that something apocalyptic happened, and you were all somehow sent to the distant future?

-grk-

So what I did last night is go insane, apparently! Or earlier, and I just don't remember--

Mana corruption. Fuck.

Well, I guess talking to the voices in my head is better than talking to no-one.

"Hey, Sky, are you alright?"
"Erm, wait, stupid question, nevermind."

so what does mana corruption really do to someone? All we got for an explanation last time is some panicked yelling and that it was bad. that's it. Could you expand on that so we actually have an idea just how bad man corruption is cause from what I'm hearing it sounds kinda like frostbite.

>>715633
Ohhhh, you forgot everything from last night? Including us showing up? That's really inconvenient! Maybe we can jog your memory...

Okay let's start from the beginning. At first we didn't even know why we were talking to you, so you explained a little about magic and then brought us to see your friends. We immediately caught you have a crush on Vess so let's get past that right away. Then Amy took you into the hall to talk to you in private, cast some kind of really powerful spell on you which caused your eye to go bonkers, then told you that we're known as "The Voices" and our presence meant something terrible was about to happen and this marked the beginning of your "quest".

Then we wound up switching into Vess's head, and uhhhh how about we keep our conversation with her private. Anyway, while we were talking to her, you showed up. Amy was missing, and Vess couldn't contact her via magic, so we assumed she was dealing with issues in her own way. You asked both Vess and King to donate mana so you could cast a protective spell, then cast it. The world outside the barrier seemed to shatter, then everything went black.

We woke up in Vess's head after that and you were on top of what seemed to be a circular cut-out of the floor you were standing on before the world shattered, with all the injuries you have now. Vess kinda freaked out a bit, some guy showed up and called you a "winged one" and almost refused to help, but I guess either Vess or King convinced him to help anyway.

>>715648
By eye I mean your missing eye. It sortof exploded into light, and stayed lit like that until after the world shattered.

(I just realized that due to the characters being aware of us, compared to normal quests our role is very meta here.)

Sky, We voices have real people behind them. To us.. you are literally but a story in which we have a voice, what would here be considered a work of fiction. However, Creation is infinite. Anything and everything anyone has ever dreamed, dreams, or will dream of, everything ever written and everything ever imagined, is real at some time, somewhere.

Though we may be separated by time, space, and even universes themselves, through this story. This... Quest. We have a brief window into your life in which we can communicate, and we're here to help.

By the way, you're not insane, and we can prove it.
We are part of an advanced civilization that lacks any and all magic. What we do have is knowledge, techniques, and technology. Thousands of years of it. Available at our fingertips, and to you, through our voices.

So if you think your crazy, ask us a for something you couldn't possibly know. A concept, a machine, a design for a weapon, how to turn lightning into a tool without magic. Anything. You might be surprised.

>>715774
Ehhhhhhhh, not every quest where we're literal voices has a meta element to it. So maybe you shouldn't try breaking the fourth wall.

>>715783
Everyone broke that wall way back on frame 2.
I'm just stepping through the gaping hole.

Okay so I tried to decrypt the writing in the dream, and there's really no way to do it. There's so many symbols it could be any number of things, but I guess it could be something like:

BEWARE THE BLACK R**E*
where the last three * are each different letters from the rest. RIDER doesn't work of course. It starting with BEWARE makes sense and the three symbols after that are most likely THE, then BLACK fits for the third word but I suppose it could, again, be anything that fits B*A** where the *s are different from every other letter.

Here's a disthread while I get lazy drawing the next update: http://tgchan.org/kusaba/questdis/res/99166.html

OH BOY LEMME WRITE YOU A FUCKING BOOK.
Today marks the sixth time I've gone through this shit and I will never know why I keep doing it because of amnesia.
The affects, perhaps definitively because of this repeated stupidity, are very familiar to me. I'm practically an expert on it by now.

So let's go over the basic ones:

Amnesia, as established. Usually only for about 6 to 8 hours before the mana corruption takes place, but everything in that time-frame is basically a cutoff. Like it goes from there to here with nothing in-between. It's weird.
Dizziness, drowsiness, headaches, vision problems. The usual.
The nausea also kind of sucks.
More uniquely, you can't taste or smell anything when corrupted. It's like your senses just give up in that category.
Also twitching and random pain. I mean, on top of the pain that's already present. ugh.
Of course there's also the weird magical cuts (one's on my arm I can fucking feel it it hurts), and finally it's impossible to use magic under these conditions. And if you want to try anyway, well, don't say I didn't warn you.
(of course there's some other things but I'm a little worried those might be personal things so I'm gonna refrain from talking about them.)

>>718044
Oh great. What do you usually do? Why do you not know what causes it, when there should be witnesses when it happens?

I blame Amy for this occurrence, by the way. She obviously did something to you. Maybe she did the same thing to you on previous occasions in order to get you to do stuff that needed a lot of mana.

>>718070
She did something, but I don't think either she or you is powerful enough to be responsible for all the weird stuff going on.

Wait, you've corrupted yourself before? Damn I the way Vess was talking about it I thought it was a lot more fatal then it is. Oh and how long does this crap normally take to ware off? And why don't you want to talk about the mood swings or seeing things?

>>718044
well something very bad happened and you did something very good, with he help of your friends.
Life just hates you sometimes. Should find a way to magically bitch slap it some time.

"Now let's hurry up and fix you up."

Oh cool! Ask him what that was. That didn't look like the magic we've seen so far.

while I find it cool that he has a hidden door, part of my is wondering WHY he has a hidden door. Usually people have those when they're trying to hide something or from something

When he Says "Fix This" He means your Mana Corruption, Right?

Anyway, there is little you can do right now, Try to rest as much as you can. I wonder If we could try to go with King. like we did with Vess, Althouhg I don't know how we did that...

It was just an enchantment. Although, being much more difficult to cast than a normal spell and that specific enchantment being only usable by the one who cast it, it probably means he's a mage. I can't ask him anything, though. It hurts to open my mouth, let alone make words come out of it.
"Now, when you're all awake and not slowly dying of blood loss, I'll have to ask you a few questions."
>>720446
From the way he's talking, I'd assume there's some sort of danger around here or something. Given the whole "especially where you are" comment, anyway.

-urh-
God dammit this hurts.
"Namely, why you're acting like you've been living under a rock for your entire life."
"I'm, uhh--"
"I just said later. Keep moving."
...isn't this place technically also under a rock?
>>720641
I think he means my everything. I hope he means my everything. Holy fuck this is painful.
And, uh, yeah, I have no idea what you're talking about there.
>>715637
It's normally a lot worse, actually. I don't know if I've, like, built up an immunity to it, or I've just not gone far enough with it to get a deadly case of it, or whatever else, but deaths resulting from it are not terribly uncommon. I guess I'm just lucky??
>>715648
Uh, wow, hm. That's a lot of shit to take in. How the fuck did you even... I'm not gonna ask, nevermind. 'Some guy', I'm presuming, is the one over there with Vess on his back? What happened to her? Did she get knocked out or something? Shit, is she okay? Dammit, I hate not being able to move. And, uh, the "winged one" comment sounds interesting. I'll have to ask him about it, I guess. You know, when I'm "not slowly dying of blood loss."

-urgh-
>>718070
Ermh, Amy's always been a strange one, but I don't think she's, uh...
>>718080
Yeah, what they said.

>>721691
We didn't see how Vess passed out, sorry. If the stranger is a mage then it seems likely he cast a sleep spell on her.

dude you're bleeding like crazy out of your missing eye. How bad does that hurt compared to the rest of you?

...Did somebody say something?

>>721979
Yes. Hello. Please don't freak out, we're friends of Sky and Vess. We're some sort of magical phenomenon that manifests as voices, called The Voices. Great name, huh?

Anyway, I'm glad we can talk to you now. First we were with Vess but she just panicked about Sky until we swapped back into Sky, who can't move at all.

What happened to Vess? Did she get a sleep spell cast on her?

Maybe? King looks like he heard something but if so I didn't catch what was said... unless we jumped to king... Sky are you still awake or did you pass out? Because if you passed out and with Vess also out that means we'd jump to king.

>>721979
We're basically voices that give advice, and we usually show up before some sort of upheaval or cataclysm.

Though uh, we usually have a lot more time than we did back there.

We're still trying to get a grip on what happened ourselves, but it's a safe bet that you're all in a different place (and possibly time). Just follow the guy for now, and he'll probably enlighten you about where and when you are now.

At least, assuming that he doesn't poison/imprison/report you and your friends for helping a Winged One anyways, which is presumably bad or dangerous or political or something, judging by his earlier reaction. Accept his help, but don't trust him blindly.

>>722283
No, seriously, We had like maybe 10 minutes before everything kicked off. That was NUTS. I swear, if we got summoned (that happens on occasion), whoever did it needs to learn the concept of an 'adjustment period'. Geez.

Vess just straight up passed out. I think maybe from stress? It wasn't magic, I don't think.

Cyrus is a cool dude. Doubt he'd do that. Hope he doesn't do that.
Apparently dudes with wings are like, super discriminated against or something. Something about a civil war? Everyone's super afraid of them now apparently.

Now you know how I feel.

so uh, Sky side he's suffered from mana corruption before. How long does that usually take to recover from?

Oh, by the way since Sky is awake, you can maybe reassure him a little.

>>722951
It depends on the severity of the case. Sky's had it before, but never for longer than a week. There have actually been some cases so bad in the school that some kids have died from it though, including one of my other friends, which totally sucks. It's one of the reasons I haven't really tried to get better with my magic. Might do something dumb with it. I dunno, it's a dumb reason, but...eh.

Anyway, it's pretty easily avoidable if you don't TRY to push yourself too hard.

>>722960
That's a bit of a strange question. I guess I don't really have a reason not to answer it, though.

Sky's odd. I can never really tell what he's thinking or how he's feeling. I mean, a contributing factor might be the eye thing, but it's not just that. He's a cool guy though, and I respect his dedication. I still wanna know how he lost his eye, though. I hope it was something super badass, like he lost it protecting his family or some shit. That would be metal.

For Vess, freaking out like she did earlier is kinda normal for her. She has difficulty managing stress. Although, I don't think it's ever been bad enough that she's passed out before. Then again, Sky was--is kinda dying a little, and I'm preeeeetty sure she has a bit of a crush on him.
They'd make a great couple. I totally ship it.

Amy is...Well. She's Amy. Nobody else gets the same feeling from her that I do; that is, one of being incredibly freaked out. She's so very clearly not normal, at least to me, and I'm not just saying that because she's blind. Her voice sounds filtered, like it was recorded and played back over itself. And nobody seems to hear this but me. And background noise always seems to get quieter whenever she speaks. And nobody seems to hear this but me. And she seems to make these odd staticky noises when she breathes. And nobody seems to hear this but me.
You get the picture, I hope.
I don't know where she is right now, though, or if she even still IS.


Ugh, Sky's bleeding on me now. I really hope he doesn't throw up or something.
Or die. He definitely better not die.

he's also awake but can't really say anything right now. Might as well let him know that you're getting him help and where you are if you can. Cause I'm sure the questions of where are we going and where am I are pretty high on his list of things to ask.

>>727377
Yeah I agree with you on Amy being weird. She did some sort of super-complicated spell just before Sky's eye went all glowy and we became aware of just how much time was left before the world cracked.

Sounds believable to me about weird effects around Amy, considering the weird conversation we had with her before the whatever happened. Have you seen any other weird things like that which other people don't seem to notice?

>>727377
Yeah, Amy is...concerning, would be the word I'd use.

She knew about us before we told her. That is NOT a thing that happens often, and usually the ones that DO know before we show up just know of us due to legends or heresay. Amy straight up popped a spell and read our nametag, so to speak.

Do us a solid, maybe keep an eyeball on her when she shows up? I'm a touch paranoid, admittedly, but a smart rule of thumb we've noticed throughout the millenia is that anyone who ACTUALLY knows about us in advance or connects to US instead of the other way around is someone to keep tabs on.
