Voice | April 30 | CW: Death Shenanigans and a bit of blood

[redlightgreenlight]

[Her apartment was near the gardens, chosen partly due to her past friend and his love of nature, so it was a perfect place to watch the proceedings. Anani shrieked right before the sound rose from the ships, and the sound rattled her bones and screamed in her ears. She backed away from the window, half crazed from the sound. The explosion struck the city without warning, rippling outward and over every living thing, sucking the energy from the world around it before springing back into nothing. The release left her grasping for breath. She knew that power far too well. Wiping the blood from her nose and ignoring the sting in her ears, she grabbed her yimo and closed her call to the Dreamfolk.]

Is everyone alive?

[She didn't feel anyone die, but something had died. She glanced over to the table where the fresh roses sat in their vase. The water had turned murky, the red blooms dry and crumbling. But there were souls still, sentient souls. Thank the gods.]

The Death plane just reacted to something. I don't know if the sounds were a warning, or a trigger.

[Blood still dripped from her nose, and she was well aware that she sounded a bit frantic.]

There's something wrong.


[She switched to private, dialing a few different people.]


(Closed to the Fool)

You need to check on Devin, now.


(closed to Gene)

Please tell me you have the rings.

The Death Plane? You've got to be kidding me!

[ Valdis will hear some strange sounds behind Sheena as the ninja answers--a little too loudly as her hearing is a bit dulled right now. ]

Except for feeling like some just sounded a loud horn in my ears, I'm fine. Tomoya and Takara, on the other hand are definitely freaking out.

Re: [Voice]

[redlightgreenlight]

I don’t blame them.

[her own ears were still ringing, and she felt like her entire body had been shaken by the blow from the Death Plane]

I know it was the plane, I just don’t know how much damage there is.

Re: [Voice]

[ninjainviolet]

Neither do I.

[ Having the Death Plane scream in your ears is something she wouldn't wish on anyone--especially poor little animals. ]

Damage to the plane? Or to Aifaran?

[ Both are frightening thoughts after everything else. ]

Re: [Voice]

[redlightgreenlight]

The barrier.

[she doesn’t specify which one, which is only significant to those who know her well.]

This is all speculation, but i feel like those sounds are a warning.

Re: [Voice]

[ninjainviolet]

Great. Just great.

[ Sheena doesn't ask,nor does she assume. Damage to any barrier is trouble in her experience.

She's quiet a moment. ]

A warning, but not a planned one, though, right?

[A long silence as Valdis considers how to answer.]

I don't think the ships are causing the fluctuations within the Death plane. They might just be reading them.

[Voice]

[ninjainviolet]

Ah. I think I see.

They're reading them and then passing them on to us? Like an alarm system, but we have to figure out exactly which alarm is being sounded?

Re: [Voice]

[redlightgreenlight]

There's so much going on that we cannot see. I just feel that the sounds are deliberate.
