RoleChapter 24 Chapter Two: She Walks Through a Sunken Dream. Added Tue Aug 21 17:11:47 2018 at level 51:Her wet nose pressed against the flagstones of the Fortress, the cooshee inhaled deeply. It was becoming habit now; the constant search for Her scent. It grew fainter by the day, but mere weeks could not disperse the presence that had been within the Fortress for centuries. The cooshee's tail swept the stones, signally the briefest of successes. The Watcher's voice boomed a welcome; her ears perked up hopefully, the tail wag intensifying. But as always, a hope soon dashed. And just like that, the scent dissipated again.
Stretching her legs in earth-devouring strides, the green and brown dog bolted from the Fortress, through the mountains, through cities, roads, to the desert and into the caves. She was more than ever a creature of habit; with none to take her for walks, she found herself visiting those same places, her search continuing. She collected valerian roots like they were going out of of style and hoarded them - all but one handful, which she kept separate. The last roots Drissa had left behind.
Her teeth and claws rendered every Talshidar thief she could find, over and over. It was, perhaps, the first inkling that something was wrong. The act was empty, her mind vacant as she slew them. As the roots appeared, a quick look over her shoulder crushed her; no one followed her, no one to pick them up and tuck them away. No one at all. But she kept at it. The cooshee was certain that Drissa would need them, when she returned.
And when her pads blistered from pacing and running, she flew to the dark, lonesome forests of the north, just out of reach of the dire wolves. As she stood on the path, it was like she was no longer alone. Drissa's smile cut through like the morning sun. She spun around, frantic, searching. Then the scent hit her, as strong as ever. And then her laughter. Gods, her laughter.
Surely, Aurew had gone insane. She stayed awake for days there, waiting for some sign. Merelith came to share the sorrow as the shadows lurched and danced. Aurew slipped into an agonizing slumber. At first, the dream was beyond joyful; Drissa was there, smiling, speaking in muffled, muted tones. Words Aurew could not make out. Then it turned from joy to nightmare; Drissa embraced her, only to pull away with a jolt, a gaping, bloody wound to her abdomen, the bloodied dagger in Aurew's hand. Drissa collapses in a lifeless heap, with Aurew's own Audune lapping up the blood.
And then the sensation of falling... a sensation that did not recede, even after Aurew woke, nor the years that followed.
