First person

I mean, I witnessed the drugging and kidnapping of someone? And

And, you don't need to say stuff out loud for me to see it! You're not the one who decides what information gets to me and what doesn't.

Fuck, what... What was that they were trying to say... Why did it sound like that...

Why couldn't I hear it... I shake my head slightly, the ibexxin speeding up slightly. Wonder if I'll see those two again soon, I haven't seen Dust and Horror in a long time.

And apparently there is someone else controlling the information whoever is speaking can get... Damnit, well that's confusing. Who did they witness being drugged and kidnapped?

"Nightmare? Dream?" I look towards Cross.

"Yes, Cross?" Nightmare speaking.

"Who, what was the being that bought Stormdrop that night..? Formless you called them..?" Oh, right, Cross hadn't met any of the Formless before now, had they?

"Formless is what they are, knowing their actual name would not be easy. Considering what that are and what that means they were doing there. Formless take whatever form they wish, how I am not sure.."

Cross tilted his head, "alright then.." They seem to mumble something to themself.

-----

Formless? "Hey, X-Chara, you know anything about them?" Hopefully the other three can't hear..

"Huh? Oh, I think? They're a mostly nocturnal species, I believe. There's something else, but not sure how much you'd want to know it?"

I sigh "alright then, I think I'd rather know?"

I see the spirit shift form to an almost human form "If you're sure.."

-----

I back away from the bars as a way into the cage opens, the snake shaped pattern, I think hiding behind me, but I don't know and I can't check. I see someone come in, Soulcaster from outside in a gloved hand. The strange device a dark grey and gold-ish yellow, both crystals dull and colorless, why is it colorless, those things are never colorless.

The person grabbed me, and I tried to get out of the hold, but I can't, one part of the Soulcaster is attached to my neck. Burning pain runs through my entire body, I can't hold back a scream as it feels like something is being ripped from me. Something else, maybe the other part of it, is attached to my hand. The pain only worsened.

I try to stay awake, but can't.

-----

Those, damned, would that word work? I believe it would, and strange humans. Those "Soulcasters" of their's, and twisting what Storm-gatherers once were. Nevermind what one of their new kings now are attempting. I couldn't warn this human of what the other humans were planning to do.

Hopefully this human can survive what's happening. Though I am unsure of how one would survive what seems to be happening to their soul. But I still hope.

They do seem interesting, and are something called a scholar, a role I believe similar to my own.

Was planning to translate that last bit to Minecraft enchanting table code but- failed- oh well.
