eighth pact ❖ {stranger with my face}

[pactum.livejournal.com]

[Emil's back on the Plane, but he seems to be acting a little... different. More different than his time of the month, too. With him is the little grayish-purple striped Wolf, which he doesn't notice until he turns around--]

Aaaahhh! [He tries to run away but falls on his butt.] Don't hurt me! Don't...

[Wolf just sits there and pants at him.]

Um... go away!

[Wolf whines, but trots off to explore the Plane as ordered. Emil sighs and gets back up, brushes off his knees.]

... Where am I? Some kind of... trap? But there's... buildings. It's like a whole city down here.

[ooc: This is not an experiment! This is what happens when you have DID and retrograde amnesia in the same body. Care to try and put the pieces together for him? He'll be fine after this post, really.]

... A tree?

[... They were doing so good, too.]

[...oh not-Emil]

It's something more than that, if it takes all the mana back in. The name reminds me of Yggdrassil, Odin's gallows.

[OH SO CLOSE]

It was called... the Great Kharlan Tree.

[handfulofstraw.livejournal.com]

'Was'?

[pactum.livejournal.com]

The tree... died because of the Great Kharlan War over its mana.

[handfulofstraw.livejournal.com]

Where does mana go now?

[pactum.livejournal.com]

As far as I know, there isn't any new mana being produced, but there's enough to sustain the planet.

... I believe.

[handfulofstraw.livejournal.com]

I wonder if you did any work in that area.

[pactum.livejournal.com]

I couldn't tell you. What I know... seems to me more like common knowledge. Of course, I could be wrong.

[handfulofstraw.livejournal.com]

As I said before, it's best to trust your instincts on the matter.

[pactum.livejournal.com]

I think so, too.

[handfulofstraw.livejournal.com]

What else sparks your notice in the books? It will be interesting to see.

[pactum.livejournal.com]

I love reading... but I can't tell you much more than that.

[handfulofstraw.livejournal.com]

There's only so much we can expect.

[pactum.livejournal.com]

Indeed. [But at least he's been taking notes in his little notebook that Ten gave him.]
