"It is a great character they said. It will be good for you they said." Behind her Sifrei is trying not to laugh. Aurion is helping Aura who is a little drunk at the moment. "You will work with great people. Just sign up and you will join this amazing project." "We are listening, you know that, right?" "Thanks for reminding me Rei. By the Pale Mistress...I NEED A DRINK!" "YEAH~ Let's keep the parteh!" "Yeah...No. No more drinks for you Aurora. Mom would kill me...again." Rabiyu look up at the sky and sighs. "This is my life."

Saber Lily 1,543 Posted June 24, 2018 Jeremy literally does everything perfectly but Henry drops something and he trips. Xion and Takao switch lines a few times. Eclaire is so nervous she accidentally screams her lines at Shiva. Multiple times. Raz slips and falls off his chair. Eclaire forgets pants one day. 1 Nero Kunivas reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Elrandir 783 Posted June 25, 2018 I was thinking about an event from a little while back. The soldiers/messengers that Yev sent to the north, and the ones who went to find Rabs. While I like to think that the ones who were looking for the highly charismatic elf succeeded in their work at some point during the time skip, I also think that the ones who traveled to the north were prevented from ever coming back. They probably would have used a flying mount or spell for a quick journey, and at some point before reaching either Exire or Heimdall they would have been stopped by my favorite dragon judges, Raish and Umbra. They would have told the messengers that Leviathan and Asura were indisposed, leaving the judges to handle their royal duties. After being told that Yev wanted to speak, the messengers would have been disposed of, and both dragons would have traveled to Kilkis Seres as diplomats of Levi and Asura. Raish would have asked for a meeting with the regent in private, and once there she would mess with Yev for a little while, telling him that a deceiver would recognize their own ilk, taunting him for his involvement in the murder of the Frostbearer, and offering small hints about a potential partnership if he helped both judges to get rid of Levi and Asura, the ones who sent the Judge Magister to help Raiden in his attempt to join both worlds. The dragoness would say to Yev that they do not judge his methods, and would have loved to help him, if only he had asked sooner. She then would tell him that Leviathan currently in a coma (only her vessel is) and that neither she or Asura would deal with him at the moment. She would then leave, but not without, once again, giving him hints that a partnership would still be available if he should desire. Whilte travelling back Umbra would tell his sister if Yev could be useful in the larger scheme they are plotting, meaning getting rid of the King of Kings and the Tide Mother, somehow control the other rulers, and complete a ritual to bring back a powerful being into the world. Raishan would say that Yev could prove a useful piece in their game, if he survived.Maybe another small point to had to my similar small list for a possible sequel? I have to keep my mind occupied so I don't remember that tomorrow is monday and that means going back to work. 4 Mystics Apprentice, Saber Lily, Scrapmaster and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mystics Apprentice 2,397 Posted June 30, 2018 So I am thinking to perform a time skip since most people have loose ends tied. There's a few plot points I see that could further develop, but I see there's several of you that are tied up waiting for the departure, so I think it would be best to finish these in flashback scenes and move forward. My question is this: do you guys want to play the journey, or do you just want to get to the shrine of Isopolis? I swear to god if somebody else gets pep talk from Shiva's ghost im having Maxis hijack the RP's ending last second.He's got utterly left behind. He'd be suicidal if he wasn't so insane right now. Aww, poor Maxis. I truly feel so bad for him. Shiva was like the one thing holding him together, and now he's just falling apart. Should Maxis survive, though, I have an idea for him in the possible sequel of Elrandir's: Shiva may return in the form of a reincarnation. Apologies for the delay; I will post tomorrow.

Shiva was like the one thing holding him together, and now he's just falling apart. Should Maxis survive, though, I have an idea for him in the possible sequel of Elrandir's: Shiva may return in the form of a reincarnation. I'm fine with the time skip, and I'm fine with either play in a time before they arrive at Isopolis so they can have enough time to make some sort of plan, or being ready to enter the shrine. I'm ever so slowly working on small details of that possible sequel. Sometimes I get random ideas in the middle of the night that I think could be important. I also have random conversations and scenarios playing in my mind while I'm doing chores. It's an interesting experience. Will Raish, Umbra, and whoever is with them, succed in their plan? Will the Cinder King raise to bring destruction to the north, and possibly both worlds? Only time will tell. Oh would Arthur meet Athena before departure, or would it be a 'you arrived too late he's already gone' and now Arthur has left not knowing that she's alive and well I think he will be able to see her before the journey to Isopolis now that her wish was granted.

Elrandir 783 Posted July 1, 2018 Bringing Shiva back cheapens her death and Yev sacrifices. I remember a character from some anime I saw years ago, can't remember which one. The character was a reincarnation of someone from a long time before the current events, and they had some access to those memories, but not all. In the end the character told those who had know them that those were just memories they had inside their mind, but that they were not that person. I think Eclaire, Maxis and Yev (if they survive) could use that situation to finally accept that Shiva is gone, have some closure, or something along those lines. That's just an idea.

Elrandir 783 Posted July 1, 2018 I don't know, we already have something like that going on in the story with Elia's sister. The Ariana inside Henry's mind is more like an imprint of the real Ariana. She is neither alive nor dead, and she obviously is not the memories of the real Ariana. Also, all this talking about a potential reincarnation in any form for Shiva is mystics' idea if I made a sort of sequel to Overworld. A sequel that would take place in the northern continent. There's still quite awhile for that to happen, and I'm still trying to figure out many things so that sequel can actually happen, it's not 100% confirmed that it will be made. Not yet. 1 Mystics Apprentice reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scrapmaster 1,731 Posted July 1, 2018 Well if you must ask. The Ariana within Henry's mind is NOT the real Ariana, far from it. Its a imprint, as Elrandir said, but its one developed by Henry's mind in order to cope with his power, he borrowed from her. He absorbed Ariana's life essence, and that caused him to 'make' an Ariana in his own mind. Its difficult to explain. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nero Kunivas 3,046 Posted July 2, 2018 I would have to disagree with the 'cheapening of death' notion often associated with reincarnation, resurrection and other such methods. If done effectively, the reversal of a characters death can be as emotional as their deaths, or at least, a nice moment. Just sayin'. 1 Saber Lily reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mystics Apprentice 2,397 Posted July 2, 2018 What I had in mind was a young girl (equivalent to an 18-year-old, anyway) living in the north who has had far from a privileged life. She would have Shiva's appearance and soul, but she is not Shiva. She would be her own person, though I was thinking that occasionally a bit of Shiva would shine through. A fondness and trust for Eclaire even if they barely met, for one, and perhaps being one of the few to be able to create a blood seal with Maxis due to Shiva's spirit living within. I was planning for her personality and temperament to be rather different, however, potentially being more like the reckless Princess Shiva that we haven't really gotten to see. It would be very fun, at any rate, and like Elrandir suggested it may give people some closure on the queen's death. Not that a sequel is confirmed; this is just a character that I'd love to bring on board if a sequel does happen (which I very much hope does). I just can't help but muse over possibilities for a sequel in the North. Bringing Shiva back cheapens her death and Yev sacrifices. I actually agree with you in that character revivals often cheapen a death. It really depends on how it's done, though, and what overall effect it has on the rest of the cast of characters, in my opinion. I do get where you're coming from. . I don't really intend for Shiva to be revived, though, so I think it would be different. 2 Nero Kunivas and Saber Lily reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
