Thrown Into Madness - Lord of the Mysteries

Chaos

Juny's hand was steady as she wrote complex symbols.

One after the other.

Some next to each other some beneath and others above.

Finishing the last line, Juny gently leaned it and blew off the colorful powder.

She lifted the thin piece of iron, carefully checking it through.

It was overly thin, so much so that a single mistake would cause it to shatter.

The Elementals watched her work from afar, sometimes whispering.

Seeing that Juny finally put it down, the Void Elemental spoke.

'You Done? You've Been At It For Hours Now.'

Juny gave her a glance, sighing.

She shifted in her seat, the black gloves disappearing from her hands.

"I'm done."

'That's Good...'

The Void nodded, moving away.

Just as she did so, a different voice spoke up.

'Ŵ̬ĥ̬â̬t̬̂ î̬ŝ̬ t̬̂ĥ̬î̬ŝ̬ ŝ̬t̬̂r̬̂â̬n̬̂ĝ̬ê̬ p̬̂l̬̂â̬t̬̂ê̬ f̬̂ô̬r̬̂?'

Juny looked at the Mother Elemental.

Until now, she's been Infused in Daimira's golden cuff, so she had to be filled in.

Juny placed the metal plate into her carry-on Pocket Dimension.

"I already explained it. Although I suppose it doesn't look the part it's supposed to play. It's a vessel of sorts."

The Mother Elemental tilted to the side.

'F̬̂ô̬r̬̂ û̬ŝ̬?'

'Hehe~'

Before Juny could answer, a snicker beat her to it.

Juny looked at the Red Priest Elemental.

After he finished his chuckling, the Red Priest Elemental moved closer to the Mother Elemental, his glow practically touching her.

'You wouldn't believe what this kid came up with!'

'[She'd][probably][get][her][pregnant]!'

'...Isn't the child too young for such jokes to be funny?'

'...'

A pause.

The Elementals, especially the Error Elemental, turned to look at Juny.

Juny stared at them wide eyed, her jaw dropped.

She didn't say anything, just staring in pure exasperation.

'[Em]...[Heh],[I]- [I][was][kidding]...'

The Error Elemental moved away just a bit, his voice dry.

Juny slowly closed her mouth, her eyes still unblinking.

After a moment, she finally turned away, rubbing the bridge of her nose.
