MISSION NAME: Hide-out CLIENT: Granite Town Mission Board CHARACTERS: Sovereign Pale A.J. Godfrey MISSION BRIEFING: Citizens of Granite Town have posted a mission request detailing a masked figure wheeling a large device into the mines. For some reason, this has caused some of the wild monsters in there to flee into the town where they cause a lot of nuisance, but also makes it difficult for miners to continue their work with the increase in skeletons and cave creatures. Please investigate and stop the source of these panicked monsters. "Has to be her, right?" Sovereign asked, holding the mission request in his hand as he questioned Anniken. He was standing at the entrance of the mines, firmly holding a gas mask to his mouth to prevent the toxic fumes filling his lungs. He was told the mines were better since it lacked a high concentration of the gas, at the expense of having other threats like skeletons and mole-bears. Strange subterranean creatures that he had yet to see for himself.
Taking a few steps towards the entrance, he glanced up at the wooden beams holding it up, and seeing the row of lacrimas lining the cavern walls to light the way inside. At closer inspection, there were claw marks and footprints around the entrance and floor, but they were all pointing in the direction of the town.
"These must be tracks of monsters that had fled the cavern, clearly in a hurry to get away from what was inside." Although he couldn't pick it up himself, he knew Anniken would, "Think it's those wisps? Or maybe another kind of magic?"

It’s hard to believe that she’s doing all these things, causing all these problems for people voluntarily. I don’t know—there’s something obviously off about the whole ordeal,” “Anniken” replied, speaking while holding her own gas mask against her face. While the instrument was strapped over her mouth and nose, her paranoia encroached her mind and she felt inclined to keep it fixed against her face to the best of her ability. Voice distorted by the material’s obscuration, the woman kept her attention on her partner and the mission request he held within his hand.
The person before Sovereign was the Godfather, but at the same time, was not the Godfather. Though they retained the status of guild leader because of circumstances, there was a technicality preventing her from being considered the same Anniken he encountered multiple times before. He might notice that her mannerisms, expressions, and disposition seemed different—but the physiology and energy signature were the exact same. Apparently, this was a recurring characteristic of those within Odin’s Spear.
Not quite, though. She intended to clear things up in a way that would not reveal everything, but would at least clear confusion and questions away before she needed to get too longwinded.
Walking forward, she noticed the claw marks and footprints. Yeah—this was all sketchy in her books. Part of her screamed at her in defiance, telling her to head back and let a different Anniken do this. Another part of her who enjoyed mysteries and the macabre told her to stop being a coward and advance. A final thought was she needed to confront adversity instead of avoiding it, following in her image.
”I sense her magic here again, but I’ll be honest—I’m not sure if it’s the wisps again or not. Maybe? But in my opinion, the closer we get to the source of all this crap, the denser and more concrete the form of choice will be,” she lead, before a small pause. ”By the way, I want to let you know that uh—Anniken’s away right now. I’m her twin, and she filled me in on everything. We have more or less the same powers so ah, shouldn’t be that much different.”
Well, she wasn’t lying—but it was too vague to explain just how uncanny the circumstance was.

Sovereign started to head in further, the light of outside still guiding the way for the first few steps within. He stood there for a moment, staring into the darkness where the distant lights of lacrima trailed off. During this time, he would listen carefully to what Anniken was saying to him. "I suppose there's all kinds of magic types within this cavern, we'll have to just pres son further before picking her up." He wondered if he'd be able to recognise anything now, after a few encounters with the strange light magic. "Anniken's... Twin?" Sovereign would ask, turning around to face her with a raised eyebrow under his mask. "O- Okay?" He wasn't sure what to make of it, and was too confused to even know what kind of questions to ask. He just nodded slowly, thinking it best to just smile and accept whatever it was this 'Twin Anniken' was telling him. He didn't care about her unless she decided to mess things up, if they had the same goals in mind like before then they should continue to get alone just fine.
"Well, let's go look for our target, Anniken's twin."

The less inquiries her way, the faster they could get into the cave and stop the source of the madness. He seemed mildly confused judging from the tone of his voice, but smiled anyway. Well, most individuals reacted this way upon hearing the revelation, accustoming them both to it. Taking that as a sign of acceptance, she felt a wave of relief. There was one little detail she was told to leave out for the time being that probably would have spawned a lot more questions, and she did not mind if she had to answer them, but she reckoned they should stay pragmatic and objective for the time being. After all, it failed to change much.
Still less weird than his clones, though.
She just received an alert from someone else, though, and she seemed fairly surprised.
”Justice Godfrey,” she said in response, continuing to head in further alongside Sovereign. Half of her mind continued to think about the darkness ahead. Maybe she wasn’t that daunted, but it seemed sketchy. A lack of lacrima lighting meant they would be darkness, which may have been more problematic for her partner than herself. Still, they were a team and she would need to back him up if he was incapable of seeing.
”If at any point you need Anniken, she’s in here—“ she placed a finger against her own temple implicatively. ”To abridge it for now, we share a body.”

He had tried to be more relaxed with the whole twin situation, and it seemed that approach would pay off after this new person would further explain. Upon hearing the name Justice Godfrey, he stopped and turned to face her again, blinking a few times with his mouth slightly agape. It took a hot second for him to realise what she meant by the name, and then the lightbulb finally lit up. "Hey now," He put his hands up in surrender, shrugging slightly, "I ain't one to judge this kind of crazy stuff. I have about 100 of myself bounding around inside me too."Still, Sovereign was glad that this Justice person elaborated further, it would help if he knew more information about her in case something went terribly wrong inside the cavern. "Whatever keeps you sane, just as long as you don't go crazy on me. There's always one psycho twin." He jested, smiling to himself before turning to venture further in. The lack of light was worrying, and he knew he'd be at a disadvantage if they got attacked. He had no way of creating a source of light, unless he was using one of his spells, and he could only see a few feet in front of him. Having to find a different way to navigate, he would started creating his body duplicates, allowing them to walk further down. Not only did he use them for slightly better vision, but he commanded them to feel their way along the cavern, and the information would be fed back to Sovereign. Even without being there, he knew the width and height of varying tunnels that split off in various directions. It was likely this mine would end up being like a maze, but he wasn't sure if they were far enough in to be able to pick up any magical signature. They might just have to rely on a bit of luck and hardwork to explore as many of the areas as possible before picking something up.

In fact, if they were in any way like her condition, then they outnumbered her population by ninety-eight. However, it seemed to fascinate her more than anything; hearing about someone with a potential anomaly like her own situation had its appeal.
Ultimately, she found herself laughing in response to his joke. Little did he know, there was a sliver of irony in expressing that jest to herself instead of Anniken. Evidently, she subdued her laughter—it was apparent the conscious effort was made to not alert the creatures or people within the following darkness before even engaging them.
Heading further into the darkness, she watched Sovereign hatch an interesting plan. While she failed to investigate further into the workings of the ability, creating more of these duplicates seemed to result in greater ease in navigation. Whatever strategy he employed through this was of no concern, she merely seemed relieved that he had a way around the potential obstacle. However, he did imply a similar situation to herself. Maybe they were capable of telepathy like herself?
Her eyes adjusted to the darkness the longer they were exposed to its murky embrace, feral pupils expanding to drink in more sparse light. Moreover, her left eye was consumed by a deep blue pigment, with intricate, dark accents painting an eccentric design. It mirrored Anniken’s eye, but seemed to manifest in the left instead of the right. To her dismay, despite them advancing further into the beginnings of this possible labyrinth, she felt no magical signature. Not good.
At first, she spoke in a hush. The idea she had seemed ill-advised without prior permission.
”By the way, Sov. Like I said, it’s the same core ability, but how our magic types manifest is slightly different. If you’d like, I can commune with your telepathically—though I’m not sure how that would work with all your other selves. Would be a good way to keep our voices even more down. No pressure though, it’s fine if not.”

'Having two different magic types in a single body, yet the desired effect remains the same.' He tapped his chin, 'Interesting.'
He knew it was possible to posses various magic types, but it was extremely taxing and took a lot of hard work. But in Anniken's case, or Justice's, it seemed different. Two people, with their own magic, yet sharing the same body. It was fascinating stuff, he knew his brother would indeed have taken an interest in such a thing. "Telepathic communication? You can do that with others?" He smiled at her, keeping his voice quiet, "Very useful indeed."
He was sure it wouldn't work too well, and he thought it would be best to warn her. "They're not just physical copies of me. Each is a thought, a feeling, a memory manifest. It took me years to filter each one and have a clearer mind. But you are welcome to try."If Anniken tuned into Sovereign's mind, she would tune into all of them, even the ones he hadn't made. There would be screams, laughter, cries, wicked images and manic visions. Sadly, it may deem to be too uncomfortable to linger inside their minds for too long.

Pondering for a moment, she scratched where her chin would have been with her thumb. While she believed in her mental tenacity when it came to enduring things of this nature, she had no doubts it would strain her mind while she had to deal with her own share of mental pressure from her own abilities.
”I see. I think I already get the picture without trying that out. Think it would be best to reserve it for if I really need to convey something in the most quiet way possible,” she explained, tapping into some of her personal wisdom in lieu of her magically induced variety.
Reaching for a box in her pocket, she came to a sudden realization. Shit. Quickly remembering the existence of the gas mask on her face, she abandoned the idea of retrieving a cigarette to enjoy while they traversed.
”You could say I can relate. I have uncountable horrific visions throughout the day, prophecies if you will. After awhile though, it just becomes background noise.”

"Yeah, it's probably for the best. Won't lie." He agreed, nodding his head in response to Justice choosing not to connect with his mind. It would be best to use it for an emergency, and even then it still won't be pleasant. He looked over as she reached into her pocket, only to retrieve nothing from it and instead further discuss her magical abilities. "Visions of the future?" Sovereign was quite surprised by such a talent, though it wasn't unheard of, he had just never met someone of such a gift before. "Are they quite clear? Or just snippets and possibilities?"ḩ̷̛̛̖̣͙̺̥͓̺͎̜̯̱̩̗͖̻̰̤̮͍̹̐̈́̽̉̄̀̀̈́̈́͒͌̍͂̓̎̔̐̆̉̊͗͌̌͊̋͑́̾̅̋͘̕̕͜͝ͅͅe̴̛̛̛̱̳̳̯̫͚͚̲̜̺̥̤̺͚̹̹̱̩͕̼̫̥̫̞̳̺̦̩̜͖̽̄̉̓̓̋̃̓̑̾̈̈́́̓̐̆̌̏̾̚̕l̴̢̢̧̨̢̢̛̪̣͓̗̝̻̦̫͍̮͙̠̤̰̤͙̟̹͔̳̫̈́́͋͂̅̈́̓̈́̇͋̏͊͒͋͆̂͐̏͗̈́͆͛͐̔̉̀̋̾̿̓̍̆̕͝͠ͅp̴̛̫͉̞͈̻̏̀̉͑̏̏̿͌̌͆̉͐͊͐̏͐̍͋̓͊̀̚͘͠͠͝͝ ̴̧̣̺̟̯͇͋̒̅̅̆̓̏̀̍̄͌͗̆͑̌̂͒̌͒̀̂̃̚̚͝͝h̷̫́̉͊̈̀̑́̓̀̅̂́̐̔ė̶̞́͌͛̿̽̅͒̕̚ͅl̸̡̡̢̛̛͚̞͕̜̪̠̗͚͕͔̝̮̮͔͖͍͙̭̤̲͔͇͎͔͈̹̯̦̥͚̭̓̒̾͐̈́̽̂̏̔̀̐̄̂͌̀̍̂́̅̈́͗̉̓͛͛̈́͜͝͝͠͝ͅp̵̨̬̝̦͍̤͕̫̌̓̀ ̶̨̧̨̛̜̝͉̣̲̠̮̫͙͓͕̳̩̗̲̳̘͇̰̫̞̩̲͎̦̻̄̉̃̔̇̋̍̊͊̋͗̿͋͂͗̇͑͂͂͊̒̄̽̓̀̕̕͝͝͠h̶̛̭̪͖̥̼̤̩̮̞͔͍̦̝̦̤̘̻̮̠̗̠̹̮̥̤̘̠̅̐̈͋̑̽̃̒͂̒̓̿̍͊̅̌̈́̈́̓̂̒̎̽̿͌̈͐̔̆̕̚̚͜͠ȩ̵̟͓̼̯͚̺̖̱̖̦̥̟̖̦̠̙̟͔̫̦̦̑̈̓̾͋̽̅͊̀̆͐͑͒̀̈́̂̊̿̎́̈́̓̈̈͊̈́̈́͛͌̾̚̕͜͠ͅl̷̬̖̘͖̜̖͖͕̟̬̠͓̘͕̜͔̫̫̞̬͕̭̬͇̳̙̃͑̋̈̑̉̈̅̀̾͑̄̑̈́̀͛̏͘͝͝ͅp̷̨̡̛̺̣̗̳̙̯͚̹̩͖̼̖̙̹̜̻̜̣̠͖͚̹̱͖͒̓͆̓́̈́͂͊͆͛͒̎̑̑̿̎̆̇̃̊͋̈̌́̈́̾̓͌͐̂̕͜͜ͅ
Sovereign gasped, clutching his chest as he felt a crushing weight against his body. Nothing had physical harmed him, but something had got to his clones. The shared senses, even the painful ones. They came flooding through as their panic and fear seeped into his own mind. He'd try and tune into their minds, looking through their eyes to see more clearly. But it was still dark and black, they were much further ahead than him now, panicking like ants as something moved quickly in the shadows.

And he couldn't help but fall to one knee from the pain. "Agh! S- Something's coming." He warned, looking around at the various routes that branched off. It was too difficult to make out which way to go, it was almost like all his clones had suddenly been attacked.
"We need to move."

While eccentric things happening to the duo were not rare to her understanding, flecks of concern still surfaced in her fraternal orbs while she inched closer and listened to him speak. If something bothered Sov to this extent, she knew it must have been a tremendously powerful adversary—or force. The only information he provided her was that it was coming, and that alluded to him not knowing the exact nature of it.
An unfamiliar sensation crept into her veins as she bit into her lower lip.
”Sov, are you alright?” No, that wasn’t the right question right now. ”Shit. This way?”
The way her Eye worked was strange. For the most part, she relied on her natural senses more honed for hunting in the dark than her actual magic to navigate. In a way, both his descriptions were valid. When it came to navigating, she had to decode what the visions she received were to make use of them. After all, even if she seen the possibility it was still in the dark and in the middle of nowhere in a cryptic mine.
Using what subconscious intuition she thought her wisdom might provide, she pointed to the path that branched to the left. Proceeding in that direction, she spoke urgently. ”Here, you take it easy and watch my back—I’ll lead the charge this way.”

Hide-out [mission/ Anniken]
Sept 13, 2019 10:02:37 GMT
Sovereign had his teeth grit tightly, his creepy smile that was always on his face had melted away underneath the gas mask as he pushed himself up, clutching his stomach. This wasn't just an attack on clones, it was almost like it could affect his own ethernano from far away. Whatever it was, it was everywhere. It was fast. And it was powerful. Sovereign began to hurry after Anniken, following her as he kept looking behind him. All the while, he could hear his clones screaming in his mind. It wasn't normal for them to do that, magic had induced a bone chilling fear into them. When they were killed, they returned to his mind and continued to plague him with what they saw last. "Anniken, this is-" He coughed, wincing at the pain, "I really don't know what this is."There was fear in his voice, which was something that he hadn't heard in years. Last time he felt like this, was when his brother accidentally attacked him. Whatever it was, there was a chill that would suddenly fill the cave, followed by an eerie moan and slight tremble. It was getting closer.

When it came to their powers, Anniken and Justice both shared the same basis to their powers. Though it manifested in different specific uses, the core part of the magic type remained identical; they were twins, after all. The visions, the ability to see what was going to be and what was, many deemed it a powerful tool. Using it throughout her life, it never failed her. Fear became a foreign concept to her, because people in general tended to fear the unknown—and there were little things not known to her if she willed it.
Until now.
”I can’t see it, what the hell is going on?” The feeling continued to creep through her veins like tar, and her voice grew shaky with unfamiliarity and dread. Breathing accelerating, she did her best to move and navigate further into the darkness. There seemed to be no point in running away, because this heinous, malicious feeling was omnipotent. ”Whatever this is, it’s not in any visions, past or future. I can’t see it!”
They needed to move. Maybe if they reached their true destination, whatever that effigy was could purge this horrible thing with its odd affinity for light. If it destroyed itself in the process, maybe they could kill two birds with one stone. But what was this? Was it even something that could be destroyed? Was it residual, or a thing? Did it even exist on this plane of existence, if it was an it at all? She found no answers to her question, no matter how many times they coursed through her thoughts. And this thing—she felt it, it was almost there.

It’s almost like they knew it was there, a presence that couldn’t be properly comprehended. It was not the sisters, but instead, the creatures that already lived here. Or some kind of magical force, a sentient energy. Sovereign was unsure, and he felt his mind literally slip away just from thinking about it. He would stop, and turned around slowly to look over his shoulder. His breathing was short, and his hands grew sweaty. It was there, staring back at him at the end of the tunnel. From the black abyss, two large skeletal hands the size of the cavern wall itself would reach out, digging into the stone as if it was pulling itself out of a black hole. Two silver orbs appeared in the shadows, narrow and slitted yet with two black dilated pupils in the centre. Following that, a row of teeth appeared, a smile that reached from one wall to the other. It stared at them with a grin, and its bony fingers still dug deeper into the rocks and earth. It's face was visible, yet it was blurred and unclear, it was humanoid, but also twisted and corrupt. Both he and Justice would instantly feel the effects of its presence alone, a terror, a dread that was so deep rooted in the mind it felt like it was never going to go away. Sovereign felt so scared, so distraught, he wanted to cry. This was a demonic magic, something from many years ago. “I- I can’t move.” He whispered weakly, his voice choking as he spoke. The hands would begin to reach out further, dragging the demonic being further up the tunnel towards Sovereign and Anniken. It said nothing, made no sound, but he couldn't pry his eyes of the haunting aura. It was like a nightmare, knowing something is dangerous and evil yet not being able to picture it fully.

Not closely related to her, they were derived from the branch families and often seemed a lot more sinister than her line. However, she still never experienced anything like this. That made her question if it was even demonic in nature—was it something she failed to understand, a new malicious force that could only be described as pure evil? Even Ivory’s transformation did not exude an aura of such unparalleled, immense terror. It was like this force held a vice grip around her heart, and the squeeze grew tighter with every passing moment. The more she thought about it, the more black clouds of distress swirled in her mind.
When this thing regarded her, she felt herself take an instinctual step back. Its horrific visage burned into her mind, and seemed to gradually melt into increasingly disturbing imagery. While Justice had seen her fair share of horrors from her visions, nothing held a candle to this. Run. That was what she wanted to do. Something she could not see—something she could not understand.
”Damnit, this can’t—be… happening…” Justice croaked in response, tremors of fear continuing to wreak havoc on her body. Adrenaline flooded her system, and the dilemma between fight or flight wracked her mind. However, she could not interpret any means of fighting this entity. Maybe it was her strength, maybe it was her divine blood making her more resilient, maybe it was some other factor, but she managed to slowly begin moving again. Slowly. As though she carried an extra few hundred pounds on her frame. Attempting to take Sov’s wrist and help him move, she moved—moved like it was life or death—mustering every ounce of willpower she could to lead her and her partner to a less dreary fate.

All he could do was watch the darkness grow closer, the face distorting and blurring as a tear rolled down his cheek. Sovereign felt all hope be drained from him, all joy and feeling of life. He felt hollow, emotionally and physically, he didn't know what to do. Until he felt Justice wrap her fingers around his wrist, lightly tugging him as she too moved away. It was slow and heavy, her steps making it seem like she was carrying the weight of the cavern on her shoulders. But it was that little tug that let him pull away from the gaze of the malevolent evil crawling towards him. There was nothing physically holding him, but when he turned away it felt like he was trying to tear himself free from a tight grip, prying off the fingers that had tightened around his core. The moment they turned around, they'd once again get that feeling of something sinister watching them, breathing down their neck as the hairs on their body would stand on end. Was that the trick? Making people so afraid of whats behind them that they just have to turn around and see if they're being followed? Then after that... It got them. Gritting his teeth, he'd take his first few steps forwards, as if he were learning how to walk again. That was the hardest part, and then after that they'd both find they could move a little easier. Eventually being able to run. "Don't look back."He would warn, hoping that was all there was to avoiding this demonic presence. He had no idea such things lived in this mine, he thought it would just be giant rats or lizards, but this darkness? Sovereign wouldn't have entered if he knew it existed. "Just run."
