Second Song ♫ Video (Daemon: Apollod)

[hasitsthorns]

[ An authoritative bark, steely eyes to match the armor worn- ] Feldspar will stay in the rear with the rest of the mages, Reyson on the frontlines with the wolves, and Misto with me to...

[ She falters suddenly. Wolf ears standing tall on her head flatten back in uncertainty. Where are the Morgans, the group she'd been informing as she stepped into a portal towards the oncoming battle? This wasn't- In a blink, memories come careening into her head and cause a startling emotional mish-mash. Names, faces, a year and some change spent in Eudio and Xistentia suddenly competing with the four years from back home. It's a different type of war inside her mind. ] Apollod, [ she suddenly says, looking to the canine that's already recording her return.

Despite herself, she suddenly smiles into the feed. ]

Hey, guys, [ comes a softer tone than before. She crouches down to pet the daemon that's recording, not physically looking a day older than when she left but certainly feeling like it. ] Hopefully I haven't been gone too long.

What'd I miss?

kurt!!
I am back, I'm sorry
I wasn't planning to disappear, it just kind of
happened
ｍ（．＿．）ｍ

it's a long story, but
I went back home for a little bit

i'm glad the war's over here though!
at least that's one less world without one going on

[shadowblends]

[SIGH]

i know you didn't.
i was just
really worried about you
but i'm glad to see that you're okay.

you did?
normally, i'd assume and congratulate you, but instead: how are things?

that sort of response makes it seem like there might be a war some place you've been. [you know, like, her home?]

[hasitsthorns]

as alright as i've ever been!
which is saying a lot, considering I just came from combat
well, almost

my world's all kerfuckled
i'm actually just kind of grateful in a way i'm alive to see it because
well, I didn't tell you before because it never came up but
was pretty sure I was dead?
surprise, i'm not!
but now i've got a bigger problem to face
like, you guessed it, a war

[shadowblends]

almost?
please, i'm all ears.

[Meaning: explain yourself, Rosie.]

what a word.
you know, i'd normally pride myself on guessing something correctly, but this is not one of those moments.
my condolences for the war.
i'm glad that you aren't dead, though.

[hasitsthorns]

we were heading into battle
got wind of one of the dragons leading a charge somewhere
it was probably gonna' be a doozy

you and me both!
sort of
as messed up as it is to say, I think things were a lot easier when I did think I was dead

[shadowblends]

a dragon?
how were you planning on taking it down?

it is messed up
but to be fair, i guess i sort of understand?
i've been thinking too much lately after all this fighting.

[hasitsthorns]

same as you take down anything
with a lot of firepower

yeah, i feel you
the downtime can be nice but too much time to think
usually not

[shadowblends]

fair enough, i suppose.
as in gunfire or some other type of weaponry?

it'll work out, though.
usually does.

[hasitsthorns]

ki
magic
a metric fuckton of it

usually being the keyword
but we'll see!

[shadowblends]

seems like a legitimate form of measurement!
but all of that magic would certainly bring a dragon down [or so he'd hope, at the very least.]

yes, we will.
