THE HOLY WORD▼
THE HOLY WORD
[Django Reinhardt - Minor Swing]

A group visiting the festival have loosely banded together. It's better, after all, to engage in an event with a group. Even if it was a group of people who barely knew each other.

There were a few locations of note:
- An AI offering hints.
- A book gate leading to a meditation spot.
- And a book gate leading to the library.

DD
DD skitters along, keeping a close eye on the scarvie by her side. Apparently the scarvie had almost burnt down a library? That was going a bit far in terms of harmless mischief. But at the same time, she talked to the new people she'd met, playing words from her back.
"What have you done so far here?"
P-4076
"Not much, honestly. Just looking around. =3"
Abyssal
Abyssal hops along beside DD, hardly able to keep up with her natural speed, but she tries. The little wandettle she had been caring for still holding firmly onto her back.

"Poow! Pow pow, poaw...pow pow!"

"A bit of everything, mainly tending to the many adoring fans that I most definitely have... but when I do get some quiet moments I have been going to my fellow artists stands to examine their works!" They seemed quite uncomfortable by DD and stayed far far away from them and the rest of the group.
Abyssal
"Pow pow, pow poow! Pow..." She...keeps going a bit at DD. She even wrote a little note for her.

DD
"Yes there is lots of good work." DD slows down a bit, since it seems multiple members are having trouble keeping up. She picks up Abyssal's note.
"......."
DD
"Ssssss.... can't read this. Sorry."

"It fucking speaks...."

He said, jumping even further away.
Abyssal
Abyssal lowers her head a little.
P-4076
"Okay, the wandettle talks, not weird at all. =3" That is very weird. She is deeply concerned.
Solaire
"If it has the proper structures, anything can speak the right language!"
Never Ending
"I don't care keep that god-hating insect away from me please."
P-4076
P-4076 pauses in her thought a bit. "Knowing how notails generally communicate to each other, fair enough. =3"

"God-hating arson. Damn!"
DD
"Sssksskss, yeah..." DD makes a clicking sound with her mouth. She's jealous of all these people, with their tongues and tongue-equivalents.
Solaire
"Watch this! Dronnsi vi ven hepd rike ert roe nevt hase comigled!"
Abyssal
Abyssal looks back and softly bumps her snout against Poaw's head.
Never Ending
He is wishing violence on this wandettle

"Can we just move along people, as you know I only have so much free time with my did I mention many adoring fans."
DD
"I am cur-i-ous about that med... med-a-tion spot. Never med-ated before. Sounds nice. Think you could use it."
Solaire
"I agree, sounds quite pleasant."
P-4076
"But that'd be kind of boring though… =3"
Abyssal
"Po-oaw-wow." Abyssal mimics DD and nods.
Never Ending
"You have no idea how much I could use this, yes yes lets go."

He said, clasping his hands together.
DD
DD rolls her (eight) eyes at snowi, tapping the ground in the direction of the gate. Come on!
Solaire
Solaire follows DD
P-4076
With a teeny tiny sigh, P-4076 mounts Snowi (the mallon) and follows along. Maybe something would happen. What could possibly happen while sitting in one place for minutes doing absolutely nothing?
Never Ending
Never-ending Consequences also follows along with the group, though at a major distance.
The crew of people walk through the gate. The land ramps up. They're soon climbing a mountain that none of them knew about. A 30 minute hike upwards they spend until they reach and outcropping with her overlooking a wandettle.

Longfur
"Hmmmm this looks like a prime subject for this..........."
"Dee......"
Longfur
"It is hideous. But, if I can do this..... then nothing stops me from changing all of them...."
DD
"Hai!" DD enters first, eager to learn from this meditation expert. That 30 minute hike had better been worth it.
Never Ending
"This hike better have been worth it I..."

Never-Ending Consequence stops once they spot Long Fur and the wandettle.
P-4076
Unlike the others, P-4076 was not all that tired out by the 30-minute hike. She was riding a mallon the entire time, after all. Though, she notices just who is ahead…
Longfur
"Ohh? Another insect here to join the sermon?"
Abyssal
Abyssal hops beside DD, panting lightly.

"A whole group....I see."
Longfur
"You've all come to learn how to become dragons!"
Longfur
"Please, take a seat on the ground. I'll go over the sermon."
DD
"........Okay!"
Abyssal
"Pow?"
Arson
"Damn........ This leads me to my arson....... Pow."
P-4076
She slides off her mallon in mild shock, absolutely speechless.

"Not what I was expecting but learning things is what this place is all about!"
Never Ending
They turn to the melodico

"D-did you lead me here to turn into dragons and inadvertently make me listen to one of my mothers sermons."
DD
"Dragons is met-a-phor. Classic writing tech-nique."
Longfur
"Child if you want to leave. Then leave."
Longfur
"But don't get in the way of my sermons."
Longfur
"Let us speak about dragons, and their importance on this universe."
P-4076
P-4076 cranes her neck over to Solaire and whispers, "Is this what it's like to have parents? =3"
Never Ending
They look back and forth to the exit and to the group. They then slowly hang their head and quietly mumble while sitting.

"Sorry mother."

Longfur
"Dragons are the first enemy in the universe. They are the nature of fear. The first emotion that exists."
Longfur
"They are the manifestations of our deepest fears. Without dragons we cannot evolve and change shape."
Longfur
"It is the dragon that we fear! And yet it is the dragon that makes us more powerful."
Longfur
"When you become a dragon. The universe will hate you. They will spit at your heels and scream at you for being an outliner."
Longfur
"But people do not understand. Without dragons, you wake into the deepest forests and disappear. Dragons are the first warning sign."
Longfur
"You hate the dragon. But your fear of the dragon is what protects you from the outside. Only when you can kill a dragon, are you fully ready to become to leave your lands, and conquer what is beyond it."
Longfur
"Fear the dragon. Become the dragon. Protect your people. Even if they do not understand that you, their manifestation of fear is the only thing that stops them from a certain demise."
Longfur
"Those who wish to become dragons, and protect their kin, raise your hands!"
Longfur
"For the rest....I suppose you can ask your questions."
DD
"Khhh, not that good speech. Work on it more."
P-4076
As cool as being a dragon sounds… P-4076 enjoys the company she has with others, especially Peasant. She doesn't want to be feared. So… maybe other people can take up that mantle. She silently declines.
Solaire
"Is becoming a dragon literal or metaphorical?"
Longfur
"It is literal!"
Longfur
"But I suppose you can accept it in a metaphorical sense."

"I'll accept it metaphorically. Not looking to become an anomaly, sorry."
"Though your teachings were very informative! I'm glad I came here to learn your wisdom and a bit of your religion!"
Abyssal
Abyssal sits there listening. There were a lot of words, but she seems happy.
Never Ending
Never-ending Consequences was listening, but quickly pretends as though they weren't. They are also not too keen on becoming a dragon.
DD
"I fought a dragon once. Long way away. Didn't kill it. Cut a hole in its wings though."
Longfur
"I don't care what you have to say. Your kind-"
Longfur
Longfur pauses to close her mouth. "Your kind has always been against the gods. Against nature herself."
DD
"My kind?" DD rears up somewhat. "Don't know what melodico sssskss did to you, but don't lump me in with them."
Abyssal
Abyssal hops up beside DD as she moves.
P-4076
She kind of just leans against Snowi as she watches this play out. At least she has something neat to tell Peasant now.
Never Ending
"Mother means insects... all of you are against the gods, that is well known."
Longfur
"Arthropods."
Longfur
"All arthropods."
Solaire
"Might I ask why arthropods are against the gods?"
DD
"So you're the bug-hater I heard about? Sad."
DD
"Thought you liked scary things, and let me tell you-"
DD
"You don't need to be a skskksk dragon to be scary."
Longfur
"Who told you that?"
Never Ending
He steps away from the group, but not too far away. "Have some respect, they are a priest."
Longfur
"Genuinely who told you I "liked scary things?""
Longfur
"I like, dragons. You are not scary at all."
Longfur
"You are just disgusting."
Solaire
"Lets... not cause a fight now you two! Please!"
Longfur
"And your insides are just as so. To come to my place of prayer and talk like this? You are.... such an arthropod. No respect."
P-4076
"I dunno, it'd be pretty interesting. =3" P-4076 is pulling her phone out as they speak.
Never Ending
"Heavily agreed. On that part. If I wasn't- I mean if you hadn't have needed me and my amazing skills then I wouldn't be here. Disgusting."
DD
"Haven't seen any reason to respect you."
Solaire
"DD!"
Longfur
"You have come to my place of worship. And you spit on it."
Longfur
"But it is in your nature as an arthropod to ignore the rights of others. To invade their homes. To eat their foundations for no reason."
Longfur
"So I cannot fault you. It is in your nature."
P-4076
Yep, she has pressed the record button. She is absolutely filming this.
Never Ending
"Arthropod, I highly encourage you to take those words back, and if you are even capable which I highly doubt. Show some respect, if you are even able to do such a thing."
DD
"You skskkkksss ad-ver-tisedddd!!! There was a sksksksss sign!!!"
Abyssal
"Pow pow!"

"DD, I understand your frustration, but fighting wont do any good. Please don't escalate this further."
Longfur
"My deepest apologizes arthropod. I forget that your kind is unable to understand the deeper meanings of areas."
Longfur
"You smell a trail that leads into a fire, a trail set by your kind. As such, you believe you must continue."
Solaire
"Longfur this was advertised as a meditation spot, you cant fault them for this."
P-4076
Now standing up and leaning against Snowi, P-4076 continues recording. No other comment, just recording.
Longfur
"Of course, you people believe that meditation is "no connection to god."
Longfur
"Sickening. Meditation is always to a god. Even if you try to deny it."
Longfur
"What are you? Asking the void to calm your mind? To you the void is just another god that you wish to ignore."
Longfur
"You are all free to leave."
Longfur
"I have no want for any of you if you are not interested."
Longfur
"Leave me to my student."

"Mmmmmmm."

P-4076
"It's a nice-looking student, but you're still not all that nice. =3"
Never Ending
They watch with intent. They know how this one goes.
Solaire
"This is a mess..." Solaire steps away, towards Never-ending.
DD
DD can't pluck her strings properly, her legs are shaking too much. She wants to prove this idiot wrong, to persuade her of how ignorant she is. But she can't speak, not when she's emotional like this. She hates that this is proving the fool right, that she can't do anything better, but she wants to make them stop being so god-blessed smug.
So she runs up and slams a foreleg into her.
"Kkkkkkkkk!!"

She also steps away. She would much rather be a witness than a participant. Now seeing DD attack at Longfur, she immediately pans the camera over and zooms in on where DD ran up.
Abyssal
Abyssal jumps back a bit as DD rushes towards Longfur. Looking around, before she gently picks up her wandettle and gently places them on the ground.

"Die."
Fortuna rolls a 20 sided die with a modifier of -2. An 8 is rolled.

Longfur's tail turns into a blort that wraps around DD and starts to choke her!

Solaire
"Oh fuck- this escalated a lot really quick!"
Longfur
"You do not know what I fear."
Longfur
"But I know you fear death. Repent OR DIE."
P-4076
"Oh- oh no, uh-" Much too nervous to use her signoff, she looks around as to what could remedy the situation. Still recording, though.

The notail finds a large rock.

Never Ending
"Well I know how this one ends..." They said, standing next to Solaire.
Abyssal
Abyssal looks around in a panic. She..uh...she...oh no her friend is in trouble...
Solaire
Solaire is frozen. They could do something, but they're just a bit too shocked and scared to act.
Arson
"Scared of arson!"
DD
"Gkkkk-" DD struggles to reach her back, to speak the words that she must. "I... did die. I... died before. I... remember it. And then.... I woke up.... in my own corpse."
P-4076
P-4076 likely shakes Solaire. "You! Uh, I don't know your name, but do you think you're strong enough to lift a large rock? =3" she asks, her tone rapid and scared.
Abyssal
...! Abyssal perks up. Fire...fire. "Pow pow pow!" She asks Poaw to distract Longfur with [Firestarter]
Fortuna rolls a 20 sided die. A 6 is rolled.
Never Ending
Never-Ending Consequences is still thinking about squashing the wandettle. They won't, but they want too.

"Animal, what are you doing."

The wandettle sets Abyssal on fire.

Arson
"Arson! Arson! Pow Pow!"
Never Ending
".... Odd command."
Solaire
Solaire had to act now... but what could they do...
Longfur
"Cool story, but I frankly don't care."
Longfur rolls a 20 sided die with a modifier of +10. A 23 is rolled.
Abyssal
Abyssal just....charges at Longfur!

Longfur slams DD's head into the floor with her tail.

Longfur
"Repent. Or. Die."

Abyssal clashes with Longfur!

Never Ending
Never-Ending Consequences backs up on their own, they hate when their mother is like this. They decide to also slip away. They would bother to pick up Solaire, but they would rather not try it right now.

Longfur gets a grab. "Hello, mutt. What do you have to say about all of this?"
P-4076
P-4076 makes a run for it, holding up her phone to keep recording. "Snowi! Make a run for it! =3" she yells at her mallon.
Abyssal
Abyssal looks at long fur, whimpering softly. She knows she's just a dumb animal and doesn't understand everything. She just..wants to try and help her friends. "...Poow...pow..." She's just happy to be useful...
Longfur
Longfur shakes Abyssal till she's not on fire. "I should keep this thing...."
Longfur
"Will you join me, creature?"
Longfur
"If you do not wish to join me, I don't fault you. You are an animal. Innocent and stupid."
Abyssal
Abyssal looks to the side of the mountain where DD ran off to, then back to long fur.
Longfur
"Your choice."

Longfur tosses Abyssal at the notail!
