FC part 211

The hungover shadow lady is watching the news through the window of a tv store. People are giving her strange looks because she looks almost void-like but no ones notified the authorities yet. As far as she knows.

Terezi pyrope? Space pirates? What?

What the hell is this place?

Terezi gives him a short goodbye and closes the door, heading back to where she was before. She lied, she has been watching the news, she just told him she hadn't so he wouldn't get particularly upset right off the bat at her relatively aloof reaction to everything.

----

Nepeta is waiting for a response and I really hope I didn't miss anything.

The Scientist, after a moment’s pause, nods.

“Fair enough.” She nods neutrally.

H1 goes back to the station, typing up a file.

Far away from the deep recesses of Red Mountain housing the Sharmat...

Vivec floated mid air at the peak of his altar within the center of Vivec city. One of the mosr prosperous places in all of Morrowind. An entire city dedicated to one of the 3 Living-gods of the tribunal. Almalexia, Sotha Sil, and Vivec. Heroes that betrayed and abandoned the ways of the old gods to bring about a golden age. Morrowind was in its prime but it draws closer and closer to an end with the presence of the mad god, vowing to exterminate all other races that aren't the true Dunmeri natives of Morrowind. Establish a theocracy among many other things.

Sounds good on paper but if all of that came to light the consequences would be disastrous. Despite being a clear form of evil a good chunk of the grumpy elves among the island are willing to look past all of the murders, rituals, for the promises that Dagoth proposed which he did fully intend on keeping. Driving the Empire and foriegn races out of Morrowind sat pretty well with the people, especially when said N'wahs came in after Imperial occupation.

Anyways back to Vivec. He was a god of a couple things. Duality. Sex(The gender you coomer). And one more thing I can't remember. His skin was set in a half tone, Grey and Blue. Dunmer and Chimer. Vivec is mostly known for being a warrior-poet throughout the land while holding other titles, philosopher, Omnipresent, Half N'wah and just about any job if he listened to you. Cool fact as a "Living" god he both exists in and outside of time itself, even if he's erased from time. There's tons of other Cool facts that make you question why he doesn't do more but I'm not gonna list everything about him.

Vivec had actually been troubled by an unknown presence he hadn't known existed which suddenly appeared on the island, which meant what ever it was had made a great effort to conceal its presence. Whatever wicked power it had to hide itself wouldn't work here in Morrowind not by a long shot. Vivec searched with his mind until he instantly found Yoshimitsu roaming into Ashlander territory with Majora hung across his face.

This would be a problem.

":33 < i'm glad we could come to an agr33ment." Nepeta's expression softens from one of distrust to something fairly neutral. ":33 < now," Nepeta's tone takes on a firm note as she turns to the thieves, "do any of you have anything else to do or can we all get out of here before something bad happens?"

That red moth has now flown onto Nepeta's head. *Help...me...* There's the voice again.

Nepeta visibly stiffens once it lands. ":33 < why is it on top of me?"

Aigis carefully takes the moth off of Nepeta and holds it in her hands. Holding it up closer to her face, she peers down at it. "Can you lead us to where you are?" She asks it.

The moth nods, fluttering it's wings.

Adam walked down a sidewalk, taking occasional glances at passersby from behind his black blindfold.

Vanessa stops the next person she finds.

“Excuse me, sir, can you tell me where I am?”

The man hesitates, then answers: “Planet of the Displaced, ma’am.”

“..... the what?”

“It’s where refugees from the Void Crisis have made their new home.”

“Void Crisis?”

The man pauses. “..... it didn’t come for your world, did it?”

“I don’t know what you mean.”

“Consider yourself lucky that you don’t.” And he’s off, leaving the stranger just as confused as before, if not more so.

THAT exchange gets attention.

"Then please lead us. We'll follow." Aigis holds her hands out once more so the moth could take off again.

The moth seems happy as it flutters out of the safe room.

Coco has spaced out.

Adam sighed as he continued to walk aimlessly through the city. None of these people seemed particularly interesting to him.

---

Against his better judgement, the orange-haired man decided to slowly sneak into the warehouse that he had seen the men walk out of.

"Come, let us go." Aigis focuses on where the moth is going instead of looking at the group as she addresses them. She follows the moth.

Roe followed behind, holding the card that was Hephaestus tightly.

"Wait Ai-chan!" Teddie jumps up to his feet and follows after her.

"If anyone needs to leave because they're being hit with the exhaustion, I'll take them out," Himari informs the group so no one has much of a reason to worry about someone collapsing from exhaustion. "Besides," She adds with a grin, "Keishi here is probably tired after getting his ass kicked."

Keishi shakes his head and mumbles something in German, likely about how, 'that isn't fair' and how he was 'caught off guard'. Not that he's wrong.

The butterfly seemed to float lazily if it got too far ahead. Eventually, it hit a wall. It seemed frustrated by the wall being there, as if something was behind it.

Xion and Ventus had gone with Aigis.

Vanessa keeps walking, noting some strange looks she’s getting. Envy, she thinks...?

Why would anyone envy her? What was this crisis they were talking about?

Regardless, she keeps walking.

A hooded figure was spray-painting something on a wall near Adam.

This, naturally, caught Adam's attention.

Futaba taps the wall as I'm assuming that the group just followed the moth. She's trying to figure out if the wall is hollow or not.

Morgona is not in bus form and is watching the area, sword out in case a Shadow spots them and decides they're great targets.

Upon being noticed the guy took off.  Doesn't seem like what he was spray-painting was finished, but it could still be view-able.  Alternatively, he could go after the guy.

-

The wall does not appear to be hollow. However, from the way the moth is acting, it seems to have been placed there on purpose, to keep something sealed in.
