Songs of War: The 5th Song... Is A Person?!

Abbigail

Astral Projection is a concept Riza learned while mastering illusory manipulation. (For MCU fans, refer to Doctor Strange for visuals.) It was her main source of information. While in projection, she can choose to be invisible or not to certain people, which is why she was visible to Senn and Ria but not to Osivian or Thalleous. She can manipulate her density so she can pick up objects and touch others while her body remained asleep in Mount Velgrin.

She was on her way back from visiting Senn and Ria again, after teach them some fighting tactics, and felt something draw her towards a small farm. There were two auras in there, glowing with something she couldn't describe. She had to go there. As she touched down by the recently harvested sugarcane, she made sure she was invisible before going in to one of the houses. There sat a large purple stone, gleaming in the sunlight. Wait. That wasn't a stone... that was a dragon egg! From the End! She wondered where they found it...

Curious about the other aura, she floated through the walls into the other house. A purple-haired girl was sitting on a bed, eating an apple while her dog had some meat. There were a couple loaves of bread by her, too. She was emanating the same purple aura as the egg, with the Crown of the End floating above her. There was a thin line connecting her to the egg, and Riza could tell that this was the next EnderQueen. She smiled and turned to leave when a voice stopped her.

"Who are you?" asked the purple-haired girl.

"Wait... you can see me?"

Weird. She made sure she was invisible, too. She must look weird right now, floating around in her black cloak.

"Um... yeah?"

"Abbigail, who are you talking to? Do we have a visitor?"

An old man walked in, wearing farming attire and holding a gardening hoe. He walked straight through her and moved closer to Abbigail.

"Um, no. I wasn't talking," she warily responded.

Since that day, Riza would visit Abbigail nearly every day after seeing Senn and Ria, the thin line between her and the egg growing thicker.

The Voltaris prohibited the action, but there was nothing they could really do about it unless Lucidius somehow spotted her roaming around. He was always kind to her, but loyal to his clan, and would not let her escape. He made her situation bearable and visited her as often as possible so she could talk about what has happened in the past. Thank goodness he survived Jalkar and Grim.

She was there, when Jalkar fought against three Voltaris on his own. Not bad for a human. As he knocked Lucidius aside, Riza rushed to him and began to heal him.

"I'll have to report this, you know," he warned.

"I know. Better you reporting than let there be no report," she replied, mending the deepest layers with a flourish of her hand. They smiled, but his colors flickered.

"I'll write a report in your name to Tygren. Then you will recover and return when you are ready," she ordered.

By this time, Jalkar and Grim had defeated Zinaida and took Aggressium song. Where was the song that they used to punish her? Tygren must have it... darn. She had hopes that Zinaida would keep the Aggrowhip (idk what to call it) so Jalkar and Grim could take it.

They turned to face her, seeing her healing Lucidius. Grim threw his scythe at them, probably hoping to kill them both in one shot. Riza caught it and threw it back, Grim catching it again. Before they could make any other move, she teleported behind Jalkar. But he had experience dealing with Endermen teleporting, so he whirled around and his blade caught her in the neck, making contact with an anticlimactic clink. She smirked, hearing Grim's confused noises and seeing Jalkar's expression twist into one of fear. She grabbed his knife arm and flipped him on his back stabbing his knife in the ground next to his head.

"Go," she ordered. "Leave us alone and take the egg."

As they scrambled away, Lucidius tried to interject with a "but...". She shook her head and whispered, "Abbigail will kill him soon and take the egg where it belongs."

She began healing him again, and as if on cue, Abbigail and her dog walked up to them, having seen everything.

"The two thieves. Where were they headed?"
