So who are you to be here, weatherworn and dusty? A traveller, a tinker, a tradesman, a troubador, a tourist or perhaps a mere mysterious stranger roving outlands and outposts for specks of news? And if not a mysterious wanderer or traveller, maybe a sandblown seeker with a secret of their own? Plundered scraps of knowledge from old ruins, artefacts and pieces hidden in pockets deep.

Well; we all have our little quirks. Something just yours away from the prying eyes of the world is a fine thing to have.

When performing actions of a mundane nature, you may voluntarily take Fatigue to add dice. Careful not to overdo it. Spend an Alacrity later to recover 1 fatigue and catch your breath.

When performing actions of an extra-natural nature, you may voluntarily take Strain to add dice. Alas, unlike fatigue, to release Strain, take a 3AL to re-align and suffer the consequences. There might not be consequences. There might be. Pushing magical boundaries is problematic at the best of times.

==Anchored Friends and Fond Thoughts==
Of course, friends have to go and get themselves killed. However, If Strainblooms have one minor boon, it is that they allow the world itself to fragment along predictable lines until the bloom itself cracks and dulls and the Hounds detect whatever presence or lack there-of that calls their dull-sharp senses.

And they eat the world, devouring memories, devouring friends. One can hold on to such things, giving up a little of one-self to remember those already lost, solidify before their final traces are washed away.
Of course. It must be said.
Honestly, not all recollections are. . . perfect.

>You can Remember Fallen Friends, and hope the cracked paths of the world allow them to wander in from far-off places.
>Of course, this costs Memory
>but don't worry! You can give up secrets! Talents! Even Intent (Worth twice their rank, at that)!
>And all you need to do is... pay a Memory for every Intent the fallen Had, and their total cost in Secrets and Talents
>But, I mean - do you remember them knowing how to Dodge? And did they always have precisely that moustache? Sometimes, some things are worth not remembering

==Odd Stories, Old Scars==

Sometimes, a few stories are worth remembering... You can opt to find yourself here again and recall other, odder lives, accruing 1 Memory per previously fallen character you played. So if you've died twice, that's +2 Memory... Perhaps there's some kind of trippy code that would make this easy to track?

The earth trembles and the roots shift, little shudders in the dirt. This place of green hedges and deep moss is not as welcoming or safe as could be liked.

Perhaps somewhere else out there offers more shade. A foraging party of Houndmarked ran with their crystal spoils, leaving tracks. And we cannot be the only kind souls in this place, this waystation is battered by wind and weather, so other travellers must have been blown in. A man was killed in a pit of corpses before we could rescue him and surely that lost dead corpse had friends?

Wiop fair cleaves an archer in two with raging fury while Joker steps in and backs Wiop up, forcing away a slasher, preventing a gruelling blow. The Slasher raises their shield to BLOCK, and hollers - and behind us, on the periphery, we see the Houndmarked, coming to reclaim the area now that the Storm has blown through...

>Remember, you cannot defend if you are attacked from behind

Spurius considers what Goresnouts are and what we know - it was left slumbering in the garden, watching over locked boxes on a pile of corpses and only wandered off when it woke from its slumber to feed. They are dangerous creatures that hunt Starsnakes for sport and are considered too recalcitrant to be trained by all but the most dedicated handlers. But they are not particularly brilliant animals, and are easily lured with the promise of meat or violence.

In one way they do overcome their species instinct towards habitual stupidity, they arrange grand mating displays of bones and wood and plants to lure in any willing partners, and these have often been considered by zoologists to be one of the few reedeeming features of an otherwise entirely unpleasant genus.

You calm down. Perhaps meditation will work. Reflection on the smallness of your being often brings a calming presence. That may be hard to do in the middle of an engagement, however.

There is one other option, of course, but you will not like the boons and banes it brings.

Be careful with your anger. It will end up destroying you.

Wiop slams into the frontline of the Houndmarked, as the earth shudders and roils beneath them. A smattering of local insects slowly coalesce into a rather despondent swarm, half-heeding the commands of a caller...

Perhaps your local animists can explain. If you just want yon normal slightly inconvenient swarms of insects, then that is rather easy to do too. But calling up a swarm of bees gets you bees.

The Goresnout raises its head and stares at Spurius, who understands where it gets its namesake from. Perhaps if we but leave it to the meal of our friends, it will leave us too?

Even the gods cannot know what a mountain feels.

You cannot influence what you cannot sense, and mortals such as we are limited to the perception of our limited organs. You can attempt to go by ear and feel if you are within {sense} range, and otherwise, sight is your best guide (commonly at 8, or sense).

If invoking extra effect, precision and control is still required to leverage the forces necessary. If the theurgical prayer does not work, neither will any spellwork. If no hits are scored on the invoking attempt, no spell happens. If you attempt to influence someone who resists, and they defend enough to reduce your hits to 0, they are not influenced by the spell even if it would hit with the force of avalanches rolling down the Tallspire. If a sword misses the body, it does not matter how sharp it is.

become a beast, a rending thing of murder and wrath, and slay and move and slay. Or control yourself, forcing calm like an ice-spike through your blood-blind senses.

We reach a truce with the Goresnout, bought at only the minor cost of one of our compatriots torn apart. It drags its meal into the corner, legs ready for a pounce, and eyes us with beady glaring menace.

Spurius holds their shield in a readied position for the beast to lunge but realises after a while that it will.

Wiop, spurred on by reckless fury, continues a path of destruction through the Houndmarked, cleaving down Shooters - the two that remain standing decide against facing a whirldwind of blades and run for it, broken.

And with sudden calm the spree of violences come to a halt. A faint how rolls through the waystation, Wiop throats bursting with the urge to join the sing.

Things crack and break as bones re-align, bones bathed in the calamitous figment energy of illusionists and surgelings both, the two washing together with the scent of the Wrack...

Wiop calms, but, such as it is, not all of him.

you have horrendously produced a small gland inside yourself. Were this a ball, they would ask you to leave. As it is not, it is instead a small hollow sphere of unholy violence against the design nature intended, and acts as a feature:

One uses a trait such as this much like one would use a Secret, as it is rolled with Intent. Als the only difference being that traits are not always permanent and require an upkeep cost of 1 Alacrity/turn/feature.

This waystation sticks out of the trackless wastelands of the Leviathan Sea and Spurius veteran eyes scan the heat-shimmering far horizon. Strange, odd, disjointed place to find oneself, and seemingly forgot by all the world except the thronging Houndmarked that fill the interiors and the curious, derelict corners...

--

Cormorant feels space bend and buckle, but not, it seems, break - although a little strainbloom chips and flakes away under the assault, fed and satiated on foreign energy.
>Cormorant has a strainbloom sprout nearby, Arioch's aid is eaten by it

Hello! What a dog-dragged sight come a-wander. Care for a drink? One can offer the bountiful beverage of this dust-fed flow, in a battered tin cup taken from the house of an angry cobbler...

>>3542568

>>3542545

>>3542545

>>3542572
A drink, was the intention not clear to intuit? It is the ancient organised order of all things. First shade, then succour, then, sharing of stories. This tree grants the first, I have a small battered tin cup for the following and then, there, come the spinning out of the last.

>>3542479
why do I have bees on me? are they helpful?
>grab a weapon from the corpses

>>3542584
a grand question! The answer: One of your friends there, in the back, the humming one with the insect crawling out of his ear, asked the buzzing lot to collect themselves and march at his command.

Oddly familiar sight, seen a few of those before. Word of advice, new-found-soft-soul, do not go trading your sense in to become a god of ants

Come now, join and share and let us trade a tongue-wag for a measure of kinship.

Bzbzt? Ah yes, you too are also presently welcome. One believes one has some pollen in a bag around here, a few seeds of flowers plucked from a place best discussed when far from sobriety.

I hear tales that this waystation is wracktossed and skew-bound, that it shifts from the here to the there, that this far place beneath the beating sun holds an odd key to the possibilities of finding.

That is why the Second Sky, the Houndbound, as you say, are here. They search too for the Waystation Waystone. They may find it. I hear they've brought quite a posse of the potential and the powerful, and all aligned in unity. Their first cutter, Oshinis, she dances between grains of sand flung by the wind. Offered a drink, but repaid with a cut

Not the nicest of guests I have met at my tree

>>3544116
To wish to quench a fury-state heart to be a fury-slaked soul is noble, is brave, is courageous, is impossible. Scarf knows of no grand secret, enigma or mystery that would wrench the Hounding from your soul. Years and meditation and calm perhaps can do you good, and an Iron Will against the violence you sow. Try to keep your fury within its limits, and when it exceeds, use Focus and Hate to extract it for a time. . .

Oshinis rages against noxious insects, albeit we are uncertain if she means us or the buzzing swarm cloyingly clinging to their features. With one broad stroke of the sword a few of them are chopped from the air and the Houndbound surge forward, piling sword and pikes against Cormoran'ts hardened shell which deflects a few blows in the retreat.

Then a Chemicae Grenadier steps to - and a small sphere sails through the air, before exploding into voracious fire. We may need planning here, to defray and deflect their gruelling munitions before we scythed down by fragmentation blast and explosive fury.

A barricade of dirt and rock and the few shielding walls available is scruffed into being by Comorant as Wiop steps into the fray, holding off glancing blow and seeking thrust. Insects buzz and bite and swirl around Oshinis, who is is distracted from fierce commands and instead shouts for a cleansing fire. One chemicae avoids the grasping claws of the earth and throws a fuse-lit clay sphere that lights up the old sunproofed cloth with precise immolation, splatters of scorching flame and sparks leaping to bathe the Houndbound slashers and bikers as they advance and attack. A crossbow bolt rings out from behind the lines as their shooters begin to find their mark

Spurius frees themselves from the reins of imperial authority over their lungs and can take a fullfillling deep breath, at last. Fine produce of far factories the plate is and an able shield against the horrors of the world but did the designers have to make it so the straps always dig into the ribs so?

Tilde tries to step through a door to nowhere, Arioch feels the first pangs of freedom now the strainbloom strapped to their back finally is fed by awry energy and begins to crack and flake away.

A grasp of earth reaches out and shatters a dozen clay containers of unidentifiable materials that spread and pool along the ground like a shimmering film, clinging to the boots of the Houndbound as they advance.

Wiop is pushed off of the ledge by the collective effort of six arms heaving and Cormorants barrier takes a multitude of crossbow bolts as a vanguard to the onset of stabs and poking piker prods. Local airspace seems to have destabilised oddly, the flight of the projectiles erratic, bending, wavering. One of the crossbow shooters fair shoots himself.

The other unleash a flurry of shots on the sudden appearance of a hostile-looking stranger in their midst, backlit by curling flames.
