Closed [Garonn's Room]Premonitions (Elaine)

[Imass]

Winter 55, 512
3 bells past sunrise

Hatred filled his mind. Frustration consumed his soul. All he wanted to do was kill Murdock, but the reality of it was he didn't know how. The final showdown with his mortal enemy played over and over in his mind's eyes. Blood filled his thoughts, but nothing could quench his bitter anger. Garonn was living in the past, but it fueled the fire that drove him to the future. So overwhelmed with rage, the Akalak was unable to leave his bedroom. Alone with his thoughts, insanity consumed him.

"Petch everyone! Petch everyone who made me find myself here!" Garonn growled in a spasm of rage. He spoke his wails of despair was in Tukant, the language of the Riverfall, "I will fill my new world with your blood! Everyone must bleed by my hand!"

When he slept he had mad nightmares. He heard the war drums ringing in his ears, as he re-lived the suicide mission of Sahova. The battle was fought and he lost. There was no escape from his own mind. Executions of Nuits and Humans alike plagued him. Garonn would wake up with his mind in the middle of combat, disoriented and in a cold sweat. Drawing his sword, the warrior began to yell mad raving to hallucinations of his brothers in arm, "Get into your armour soldier! STEADFAST!! The enemy is upon us!!! HIYAHHHHH" The Knight attacked his bed in a fury of emotion. Arcing the sword down from over-head, he used all his power to hack the fluffy mattress into shredded bits.

After his mattress was ruined, Garonn realized he was only dreaming. He dropped his sword and brought his hands to his face. Lori could only reconstruct the right side of his face, the other side was a hideous scar of twisted flesh and bone. Rage filled him again as he thought of the man who did this to him: Murdock. Grabbing the shredded mattress, Garonn flung it out of the second story window into the canal below.

Mass confusion and paranoia filled his thoughts. He could not fit the pieces of the puzzle together. All his mind knew was war and blood.

[Elaine Spade]

Elaine was walking around the town. It would get up soon. Terrible feelings for her. She tried to find a place where she could "hide". She went near the canals. There weren't many people there as she experienced it. Or she was lucky. So she did that. She walked there and she heared some noisy from a house. A man's screaming. Is somebody killing another? Then a mattress was flying down. It landed in the canal. Elaine looked up. Interesting situation. She floated there and entered the room.

The temperature dropped down around her. She remained unvisible. She saw a man. And a sword on the floor. But that man wasn't a human. Elaine saw a stressed blue man. He was muscular like a knight. But his face. Even Elaine could tell something happened. The Silent Lady never met a race like that. She was interested in him. He wasn't an ugly human. Elaine did find a place without a human being finally. She was brave enough to show herself. She focused to be clear. She was in her white blouse and black, long skirt. Her soulmist was grey around her. She whispered to him.

-Why were you screaming ? What were you screaming? That language... is not like what they use here. And who, what are you? And hello by the way.

Yes the Silent Lady wasn't good at socialization. She already asked questions and she didn't even know who is he. But she was so curious. And for a long time she could speak with someone who wasn't a human.

[Imass]

The temperature of the room suddenly dropped. A chill went down the Akalak's spine. For some reason, Garonn believed that Murdock was behind him. Turning around he revealed his grotesque face to the ghost who had appeared in his room. In his fragile state of mind the apparition of the girl melted into an image of Murdock, his sworn enemy and the man who burned his face off.

Garonn's face went pale and he winced in hatred as the hallucination of Murdock asked him seemingly strange questions. He picked up his sword and yelled in common. His voice was hoarse and crude, "Why am I screaming? Don't play games with me Murdock!"

The Knight lifted his sword with one hand and pointed it at the ghost. Slowly, ever slowly, he began to circle Elaine. He still believed it was his sworn enemy, "Murdock! I suggest you surrender. You will never win this war."

[Elaine Spade]

Elaine found the man odd. Murdock? Who was he? And why was he calling her Murdock? The Silent Lady was sure he saw something else but not a girl. So people can look at her the way they want and she will be look like that. Elaine otherself suddenly woke up. A man who pointed her with a sword and was screaming. Too many things. Elaine otherself didn't take all over Elaine though. They both was there. She didn't let take out the control. She whispered to herself with a strange voice.

-Do it! He is out of his mind. Don't have to hurt him don't worry about that. You know he is not human. But he surely won't speak like that. DO IT NOW!

Her otherself was right. Elaine became invisible. Her grey soulmist was still there. It went closer and closer to Garonn. Then it entered to his body through his eyes,ears, nose and mouth. She was in there. She didn't want to take all over his body only to reach his mind. She whispered to him with her normal voice.

-Wake up! Open your eyes mortal. You are seeing things that aren't there. I'm Elaine Spade, The Silent Lady. I'm inside you. Don't worry I won't harm you. Just stay calm and drop your sword down. There is no war. -

[Imass]

Garonn watched in paranoia as Murdock whispered to himself instead of responding to him openly. Pale eyes widened in confusion for he could not understand what his enemy was doing, but he knew deep down inside that some sort of magic trickery would occur. Fear consumed him now, because he knew not how to counter the sorcery.

Suddenly, the vision disappeared leaving the gray soulmist behind on the floor. For the first time since Elaine appear Garonn noticed the soulmist, "What sorcery is this Murdock? Have you so little honor you can't even look me in the eyes?" Turning around in circles he tried to find his enemy to no avail. Suddenly a voice spoke in his ears. It was a soothing voice that tried to calm him down, but instead the Knight went insane.

"AHHHHHHH! What's going on!?! " In frantic fear, the Knight jumped on his bed frame, hacked his sword wildly at thin air, then jumped back down again. He did not believe a word of what Elaine was saying in his head, but too scared to realize it, "Elaine? Is that you Murdock!? Where are you? WHAT THE PETCH!?!?! HIYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH"

The Knight did not know what to do so he ran around confused in the apartment while Elaine communicated with him.

[Elaine Spade]

The Silent Lady couldn't help she let her otherself to talk. Maybe she could reach him. Elaine's voice changed and became angrier. She now nearly shouted to Garonn's mind:


-MORTAL! You are so blind! I'M NOT MURDOCK I'M ELAINE SPADE! Are you that weak? Drop your sword down, show that you are NOT WEAK like those humans out there. Those humans are weak in mind and in physical. WAKE UP!

Elaine however didn't like that her otherself is popped up. She tried to not let herself down to her. She hoped that this stupid thing will end now. She finally met with another race. She was so curious about him. She didn't want him to go insane. Or maybe they are insane? Elaine tried to find out and whispered to him again in her old voice.

-I don't who or what you are. I don't know why am I helping to you but calm down. There is no war! I repeat myself once again: I'm Elaine, I'm not Murdock and there is NO WAR! -

[Imass]

The voice boomed again, but this time the tone was different. It asked him to lay his sword down. It repeated the fact the voice wasn't Murdock. It definitely was not Imass. There was a new personality in the mix and this was too much for the tripping Akalak to handle. The Knight was convinced he was going insane. He had no idea what to do so he dashed his head against the wall, "GET OUT!" He banged his head again, the mental voice driving him mad. Already in a vivid flashback, the weak minded Garonn acted in a sweep of emotion. His head began to bleed.

Adrenaline rushed to his head. The small "y" on his hand began to glow and he was filled with the Divine Power of Yahal.

The Knight never felt more awake. His mind was as clear of sparkling waters. Focusing for a few seconds he realized everything all at once; the apparition of the woman melting into Murdock, the flashback, the dream. The madness was lifted from him, but hellish anger filled his soul. Perhaps the effects of Ennervism drove the self proclaimed Elaine, but Garonn declared out loud in a hoarse voice full of hatred and aggression, "Leave now or I will find a way to kill you, even if it costs my own life!"

Garonn's mind was racing. His mind remembered things that his brother Imass used to say on the dawn of battle, 'It is a good day to die!!' he screamed to the voice in his mind. He thought of Murdock's face and the Windoak and Markus Andres and Naeya too. His skeptic mind didn't understand how Yahal's powers worked like, but he felt amazing and a lot smarter and faster.

[Elaine Spade]

When Garonn yelled again Elaine wanted to whisper again but it was too late. The Silent Lady saw that glowing and felt a strange energy. It was strong, and powerful. Elaine couldn't take that much, that power pushed her out from the body. She flow out from Garonn and appeared on the floor. She was lying and soulmist went closer and closer to around her, like she was collecting it. She kneeled up and looked up Garonn. That power was enough to Silent her otherself.

-Are you immortal like myself or a God? That power... You could just silent my otherself... What are you? Who are you?

She kneeled there and suprised. She was staring at the blue man like he was a god. She needed some regeneration for her soulmist. Her soulmist was pale and her appearance was messy because she couldn't focus on it. She was curious and amazed by him. Even he was crazy. She was thinking if his common sense came back finally and they could talk like intelligent creatures.

[Imass]

The grotesque face of the Akalak stared down at the ghost as blood leaked from his forehead to floor. He stared as she gathered herself in a thin layer of thick mist. Slowly the vapors were absorbed by her form. After the apparition had gathered itself amongst the mist, she knelt before him and looked up with a curious and amazed face, though not afraid.

"I do not claim dominance over the living," Garonn said as his mind raced. He was thinking beyond clearly now, his mental abilities where enchanced. Even the wound on his head was numb to pain. Wiping the trickle of blood on his fingers, he showed the ghost, "and I am mortal."

Not daring to move just yet, the Akalak studied the apparition. The girl was young and had a dress on. Immediately his mind jumped when he realized that this must be a ghost. That why she was talking in his head. He had no rational reason to have gone so mad in retrospect, but what was done was done. If there was any truth in the childhood horror stories, then he best not anger her.

"I am an Akalak. I am known as Garonn by my enemies. Well-met," He stared at her with cold hard eyes. They were full of anger and melancholy, but also cautiousness. Slowly he sat down on the edge of the bedframe, never removing his gaze from the ghost.

"Tell me about yourself, Elaine?" Garonn asked her. He didn't know what else to do, but maybe if he conversed with her long enough she would leave. A bead of sweat dripped down his brow as he waited for her to speak again. He was preparing himself for anything, because such creatures where totally unpredictable.

[Elaine Spade]

She was so relived when she found out he is an akalak. Akalak. It was so familiar maybe she heared it somewhere or read it somewhere. It didn't matter for her not human and that's that. She stood up and looked around. She saw the bed frame. She remembered the mattress was down. She decided to sit on the floor. She was a ghost so it didn't matter either.

~So a mortal. Are you all akalaks are that crazy? Oh and nice to meet you? Or hello? Something like that... Garonn.

She was thinking to what to say about herself. He was an Akalak and not human so she wasn't really mind to tell things. Like he could do anything. And he kinda helped her. He sent her otherself to "sleep". She was curious about him too but she awsnered his question first. She whispered to him.

~ I'm Elaine Spade, The Silent Lady. I'm a dead girl from Zeltiva. I'm a ghost, shadow of my mortal self. I hate humans. I just REALLY do. ~

Humans. She always could say that word with full of disgusted emotion. But it wasn't time for speak about that she had so many question in her mind. Like a little girl, little child who asks everything she sees from her parents.

~ Tell me about yourself too! Where are you from? What happened with your face? What was that power? Do you like being here? ~

She asked so fast and with curiosity. She WAS a child at the end. It was the first time for her to meet another race. It was a new experience.
