Nice!

Btw, in case you didn’t notice, Ellis did speak to Kaine in passing. He told him and Ottoline to keep their weapons on them and stay alert. Not very important, but I thought it was worth mentioning.

Yeah, not much has happened in the dining hall. Ellis and Nahim had a chat, then followed Zahlin out of the room. I…[Read more]

Yeah, KP eats posts sometimes. If I write a long post I usually copy before I hit submit just in case.

@jonas @rae

That guy’s ignoring me. The Sword said, sounding very put out.

Zahlin ignored him. He didn’t like the way Ellis was looking at the Sword, and he didn’t want to make it even more suspicious.

“Now, I want some answers.” Ellis said, glaring, “Why did you sneak out? What are you doing here?”

Zahlin returned Ellis’ glare. “I was lookin…[Read more]

@rae

Did you try to edit? That deletes it sometimes.

@rae

It says you posted but I can’t see anything 🤷‍♀️ did you try to edit it or something?

@mineralizedwritings

Actually not much has happened besides an epic fight between my Zahlin, Ellis, and Nahim, and that happened not in the hall so it probably won’t affect anything anyone else does 😂

@mineralizedwritings

Wow, that’s really good!

Do you want a recap?

@highscribeofaetherium

What would happen if he was carrying a sword at his waist or on his back? How would he be forced to drop it if he wasn’t holding it?

@rae @highscribeofaetherium

Ellis

Ellis looked around as a strange voice spoke. He narrowed his eyes suspiciously at Zahlin’s sword. Talking swords weren’t common, but they did exist, as Ellis knew perfectly well. Could Zahlin have one? Where did he get it?

That question could wait. Ellis opted to ignore the talking sword. It usually wasn’t a…[Read more]

@jonas

He has to let go. And yeah, if he’s stabbed nothing is going to happen (except that he now has to deal with a stab wound lol). He can’t carry one on his back or side though. And yes, that was Zahlin’s sword that spoke.

@highscribeofaetherium

I assume that it was Zahlin’s sword that talked?

@highscribeofaetherium

Could he hang on to the weapon, or is he physically incapable of not letting go?

I would assume that he has to hold it? Nothing would happen if he just got stabbed right?

@rae @jonas

Zahlin

“I don’t think so,” Ellis said from behind.

Nahim gripped the Sword by the blade and pushed it out. “Peace?” He removed his helmet.

“Peace.” Zahlin sheathed his Sword and stepped back. He turned to Ellis, who still had his sword out. “You can put that away.” He said, “I’m not going to stab you in the back.”

A pause.…[Read more]

@rae

I thought I replied already, but I don’t see my post.

Okay, got it.

@highscribeofaetherium

What happens if Zahlin does touch a blade?

And how sharp does it have to be to qualify?

What if he’s holding a really dull piece of metal and then starts sharpening it? Or for a less weird scenario, what if he were holding Nahim’s weapon and then turned it on?

Okay, I figured it was something like that.

@rae

Well, he’s succeeded in not getting himself actually killed.

True, lol.

Btw, is his gun a normal one, or is it some sort of sci-fi weapon?

@rae

I don’t think he wants do duel anyone, lol! (Although if they get on his nerves as much as most people have, he might.) He mainly wants to see if anyone else is willing to be allies. He hasn’t had brilliant success with that so far, lol.
