Welcome to Banished Quest!
You take the role of a young mage labeled a criminal by his people and cast out into the wider world. In the last thread you met a nice old lady and she showed you her fancy hat.

It is currently the 29th of Svarthi, in the year 936 NH.

The enchantress' hand falls away from your shoulder, a fact for which you're immensely grateful. Ever since you watched her incapacitate a Vatis with barely any effort at all on her part, you must admit you've been feeling a degree of wariness regarding her touch. Slowly she stalks forward, stepping up to the pedestal upon which her crown sits and delicately running an emaciated hand across its golden surface. “I have labored for what in truth feels the majority of my undoubtedly long life, and now I find myself now so close to the culmination of my hard work that I can't but hardly wait.”

She turns her head towards you, smiling genuinely and without malice. “Were it not for the fact that the device is occupied, I would have already subdued you for my purposes. You appear to be a sandesta of remarkable skill, considering your age. No doubt your divine spark would have made a fine addition to my collection.” A portion of the wall melts away, revealing yet another hallway beyond. You think you might be able to faintly make out the sound of screaming, but you're not sure. “Would you like a tour of my facilities? You know, it's so rare that I get to discuss these things with a peer.”

The air in the room seems progressively harder to breath, the weight upon your shoulders bearing down heavier with each passing second. It wills you to kneel, to bow before a force far beyond your comprehension and accept your fate as its servant. You need only channel a touch of Metal magic to stave off the desperate cries for your obedience, but nonetheless you have little desire to stay here any longer than you must. Nor do you particular want a detailed explanation of how it is she tortures the souls out of her victims, though you admit a purely academic curiosity.

No, more than anything you want to drive your dagger through her eye, to see it rip through flesh and shatter bone. To put an end to this woman before she can further endanger either you or society. However, part of you questions whether these thoughts are your own, or if perhaps the same forces which urge you to submit drive you towards violence.

I'm pretty sure the reason for these violent urges is that either she's anathema to our soul or she imprisoned a Child here.

Hey anons. Since we unlocked the route to get here other vatis will eventually walk down here and stride up to that book to get sleep'd from behind. If we don't stop her the results of her successes are, more or less, our responsibility.

But she's obviously extremely powerful so let's scram and pretend that whatever hellcity erupts from her triumph was just another unfortunate accident, no heroics mmkay?

Bowing low, you do your best to excuse yourself without causing any insult. “My apologies, but I do not think I can stay much longer. I've pressing matters to attend to in the base reality and as much as I may wish to continue this tour I simply can't afford to delay my associates any longer than I already have.” A little white lie, you imagine she'll be more permissive if she thinks you have some pressing matter in need of your attention.

The enchantress frowns, but does not seem to take any offense to your request. “Very well then, I suppose I can understand the demands placed upon one's time by collaborators. Gods know their incessant demands for my attention were the reason I killed all of mine. I'll see you out.”

You resist the urge to breathe a sigh of relief as the wall reforms, once again stifling the sounds of screaming. You step aside to allow her passage and follow behind her as she leads you through the same hallway you passed through previously, into the throne room. With each step away from that horrid crown the burden upon your shoulders grows lighter, your thoughts clearer, and your desire for violence lesser.

She leads you through the palace and out onto her island in the sea of fog. Above the sky vanishes into indistinguishable white, and below sinks into impenetrable black. She stops finally at the top of the grand staircase which wraps its way endlessly around the immense stone pillar upon which her palace sits. Turning to you, she smiles pleasantly. “You'll find your way out just down these steps, though you'll wish to avoid my pets. Do come back and visit sometime soon, it's so rare anyone stumbles upon my little palace here.”

>Before descending, ask her if she has any advice she might offer for an aspiring enchanter.

actually i might be thinking of another quest ending thing we did recently.
All i remember is soma telling us that the quest would end, but if anons were interested enough a timeskip would happen where our friends rescue us. Plus we get to see the consequences of what we did, and they did.
It might be the crown or the spice prison.

As you peer down into the black of the abyss you cannot help but feel some degree of hesitance, so in part seeking to delay your descent, you pose a question. “Before I go, might you offer any advice to an aspiring enchanter? I've a familiarity with the mechanics of enchanting but my knowledge of the runic script is unfortunately, lacking.”

She twist a heavy ring around her middle finger, her expression thoughtful. “I suppose I might offer some advice. I've found in my time studying the soul and the mind that active emotions like fear, rage, and mania are connected with a phenomena I term inflammation of the soul. Passive emotions like depression and contentment are connected with the inverse, a repression of the soul.”

“I haven't yet been able to ascertain whether these phenomenon are the cause of emotions, or if emotions are the cause of the inflammation, but either way during moments of rage or excitement we are more readily able to affect the world around us. Thus whenever I seek to assert my dominance over reality I focus first upon memories of betrayal and violence. These offer me the most potent benefit. For you it may be different.”

Well it wasn't exactly what you were hoping for, you were hoping for runes, but it may prove useful nonetheless. Emotions, a condition of the mind, being in some way connected to the nature of the soul makes sense considering the mind results form the weight one's soul exerts upon reality. You'll need to attempt to excite your emotions next time you bother to enchant something.

You bow low. “My thanks, and I wish you the best of luck with your various projects. Perhaps once I have more time to spare we'll be able to complete our tour of the grounds.” You really hope this woman can't pick up on your thoughts, because if she can she'll know you're lying through your teeth.

She dismisses you with a gesture, and you begin your long descent. It isn't long before you need to manifest a ball of light over your shoulder just to prevent yourself from walking off the edge of staircase, and the deeper you venture into the fog the smaller the area illuminated by your spell seems to grow. Even just channeling vys to maintain the spell grows more taxing, as though this place resist your efforts to shift it to your will.
>Vys Pool: (40/68)

Structures begin to emerge out of the fog, their appearance strange and fleshy. One even seems to be bleeding, though you cannot be certain that your eyes aren't simply playing tricks on you. When you pause your descent to try and ascertain just what it is they're made of and notice, much to your concern, that the echo of your footsteps against the stone stairs does not stop when you do. It seems you're being followed.

Channeling vys, you urge the light hovering above your shoulder to grow brighter. Your efforts reveal on the stairs above you a corpse, or what was likely once a corpse. Skin is stretched taught across a muscular frame, its long, sharp teeth gleaming dimly in the light. The creature has no ears and where its eyes ought to be it has only empty sockets covered by a thin film of skin. Where its nose ought to be there is a hole, and upon its brow is carved a complex runic array you cannot even begin to guess the purpose of.

Despite its threatening appearance, the creature does not seem hostile. It just stands upon the steps, staring at you with its face locked in a rictus grin.

There's a momentary standoff as you and the creature stare at one another. You try moving the ball of light a little closer to the creature, but it has no reaction. It's similarly nonplussed by your stepping closer to inspect it. In the end you decide that whatever the creature is, it doesn't seem hostile so you have little reason to waste vys attacking it.

You resume your descent, though at a markedly faster pace than previously. The creature continues to follow behind you, its movements surprisingly fluid and graceful considering its appearance. After another few minutes of walking you pass another creature similar to the one following you standing in the middle of the stairs, though this one is markedly more inhuman than the other. Instead of a mouth it seems to possess odd, muscular protrusions which connect to its cheeks.

Stepping around the creature draws its attention, its empty sockets boring into you while you try to navigate around it, but once your past it resumes staring out into the blackness that fills the lower reaches of this place. However, the creature that's been following you burst into sudden motion, leaping upon the other, mutated creature and sinking its teeth into its shoulder. Black blood oozes from the creature's wounds as it's torn apart, but it makes no attempt to fight back.

Deciding not to interfere, you carry on. Hopefully you'll be able to escape your stalker now that it's occupied eating its kin. The sounds of bones snapping and flesh being rent gradually fade as you journey deeper, and thankfully you don't have much further to travel. You round one last corner and find yourself standing upon a landing before a vast stone doorway. They glide open smoothly despite their no doubt enormous weight, and on the other side you see a small chamber similar to the one you discovered in the library.
(1/2)
>>
At the center, instead of a gleaming opal housed atop a thin pillar of stone, there is simply a runic array carved upon the floor. The relief you feel at the prospect of finally leaving this place is immeasurable. Stepping into the runic array you channel vys, and immediately you find yourself standing within the same dimly lit circular chamber that houses the artifact which sent you to that strange realm.

Hey guys, sorry I was late to the quest, what's going . . . . . . .

I am so fucking proud of you all right now. We've come a long way from recklessly suicidal.

Anyways, think we can bargain the location of this chick to the Envoy of the Child (since merely communicating with the Child will wipe out soul.) or that handmaiden of Surya (or Pani? Whatever.) Who wants our soul or the soul of the dude we brought back? Seems they have an interest in souls.

If we ever see her again we're dead.
>>
>>46529435
>>46529418
I don't want none of her shit

Your grandmama ain't teach you about bad juju?
>>
>>46529456
That's why we're selling out her location and then fucking right off. But I can't help but feel a little uncomfortable about having a price on our soul.
>>
>>46529431
We are running into the most desolate reaches of the world right now. It's a good thing we're going to elaudia because we need to get as far from here as possible.

We just pissed off someone with near godlike power. And i seriously doubt this will bring any permanent harm to her.

Like this is eerily similar to when we "turned up the AC" on the dragons. She may start fucking around with Pidjata again.
>>
>>46529506
Fuck that, didn't Xanatos teach you that robbing ancient magics and shit lets you have a castle on top of your evil Empire Skyscraper and fuck a hot redheaded evil ancient gargoyle sorceress?

Evil - clearly the better option.

I wouldn't mind having a visit with the soul warden who gave us a choice of a spear or shield that he pulled from a never ending flow of blood. He seemed chill.He gave us the sanity ring I'm fairly certain.

surya already has a price on our soul.
I still think we kill the horny teenager.

>That's why we're selling out her location

I hope you know a Child or two cause that's the only thing that could kill her.

Yall know that in addition to her Godly enchanting levels she probably at least Varvar levels in magic as well.

>>46529550
>We just pissed off someone with near godlike power. And i seriously doubt this will bring any permanent harm to her.

Anon, she's so far gone we got no idea what's happening. I would have like to get to know her story about betrayal and whatnot, but it seemed important to GTFO without her eating our soul.

Anyways, are we going to get blamed for the Vatis who followed us disappearing? Because it would be nice to not face murder charges.
>>
>>46529559
I can't argue with this logic. I totally want a sky castle and gargoyle sluts.
>>
We just pissed off enchanter VarVar.
>>

But my grandmama could kick xanatos's ass so ion give a fuck
>>

Shockingly mediocre it seems.

>>46529582
And was willing to trade for the dead god that we didn't have as much of in our head as we feared.

>>46529598

We do know a Child, there's one in our basement remember?
>>
>>46529604
>> Implying she even notices what we just did.
>> Implying she even remembers us
We're in the realm that she created and has spent thousands of years tuning exactly to her liking. So unless she's meditating right now she knows every exact detail of what is going on.

You dont fuck with an enchanter in their private realm.
>>
>>46529669
We kind of already did that with the spirit war. Get some backup real quick from mahana and it seems to tip in our favor a bit.
>>
>>46529632
Let me present my counter argument of Demona IRL.

Once again, Xanatos proves that even when he loses he still wins so your Grandma can get back down on her cripple ass knees and suck dick to make rent and a little bit more to eat catfood so she can survive a little longer.

Have you taken enough care of your Elders, anon, or are you letting them rot while ignoring how lonely and vulnerable they are?

Now that you no longer have to fear being dragged off and strapped to a table for dissection by an ancient enchanter, you turn your attention to the book at the end of the hall surrounded as it is by a softly glowing barrier of vys. Stepping closer, you press your hand against the barrier to see just what exactly it does. You are not turned to ash, nor does your hand catch on fire as you were expecting. The barrier is merely a wall of force which, no matter how hard you strike, you seem unable to break.

You take a seat on the moth-eaten carpet and adopt a meditative pose, allowing yourself to slip into a trance. Gradually you become aware of the ambient vys swirling through the room, eddies swirling across the surface of the barrier. In your mind's eye the barrier appears opaque, and you're unable to catch a glimpse of the book which lies within. Sinking deeper the vys which suffuses this place gradually fades away, but the barrier persist.

Even as the souls of other library patrons and city dwellers appear above you, the barrier occludes your view of all that lies within. Strangely, you're fairly certain the barrier actually extends into the ground even though you didn't notice in breaks in the stone floor. The field of blue forms a perfect sphere, rather than being cut off where it meets other objects.

It finally vanishes along with the endless field of lights which marked the populace of Marqash. As the golden threads which form the fabric of reality fade into visibility, you note just how warped and distorted they are as they pass through what should be the surface of the barrier. The threads are shooting off at every angle, passing through but seemingly changed by the experience. It reminds you in some ways of the threads which form your mind, bent and twisted as they are by your soul.

Regardless, you channel Nature magic and watch as the threads which compose your mind expand into the world around you, your consciousness growing increasingly interconnected with the world around you. You find one thread which defines stone, and another iron. Still, you find many others that you cannot begin to guess the nature of. Finally your mind alights on one thread which stands out to you as somehow different than the others, and even as that thread grows more and more distorted you find a second, third, and fourth.

The structure that weaves its way into existence before you is obscenely complex. There are seven main threads to which the enchantment is rooted, and the enchantment itself is composed of intricately interwoven, knotted strands of gold. Some are fairly simple, others you cannot tell where one begins and another ends. Regardless, they join together at the center of the seven threads to form a circular ring of knots to which all the strands are connected.

Disassembling this enchantment ought to be easy. All you have to do is remove the ring, and the entire thing will unwind itself, right? Channeling Fire magic, you carve through the threads which form the ring. You try to keep the flame carefully contained to avoid making the same mistake twice, but the very moment the ring snaps everything falls apart in a very literal way.

As you'd hoped, breaking the central ring causes the enchantment to fall apart. However, unbound from one another the strings which tied themselves to each of the individual anchoring threads start to rip themselves apart, along with the anchoring threads. You manage to reinforce two of them before they break, but you're not so lucky with the other five. A hole large enough for a carriage to drive through rips its way into existence, and it seems as though your efforts have attracted the attention of those creatures which dwell within the void.

You've drawn quite the crowd. Most prominent is the figure at the center, it stands easily ten feet tall with six arms ending in twisted hands, red claws protruding from its mangled digits. Its legs are misshapen, reminiscent of a goat's, and end in cloven hooves. Still, it's the head which draws your attention first. Shaped like some great helm with smoke billowing from the visor, and with four prongs of what appears to be bone protruding from its neck like some sort of perverse plumage.

This hellish creature is not alone either. It's flanked on either side by strange creatures. They're covered in a thin layer of fur, their eyes set to either side of their head and their faces protruding in a long snout. They seem to have three rows of gnarled teeth, with two enormous tusk protruding from the end.

Since you have no desire to be ripped apart and fed to this creature's pets, you're quick to begin channeling vys. Only through immense effort on your part do you manage to wrangle the torn fabric of reality and begin stitching it back together. However, it is a hellishly slow process. Try as you might you cannot close the tear fast enough to prevent the two tusked monstrosities from reaching you, and thus you're forced to defend yourself.
>Vys Pool: (35/68)

The fire that springs forth from your soul is strange indeed. As it catches upon the creature's fur it begins to burn through what appears to be their flesh itself, eating great chunks into their snouts but creating neither flame nor smoke. The creatures' screeching fills your thoughts, nearly forcing you from your trance so violent is their intrusion, but through force of will alone you manage to maintain your meditative calm.

Just as the largest of the three creatures reaches you, thrusting one of its six arms forward to impale you upon its claws, you manage to seal the breach. The enchantment has been successfully disassembled, though this is twice in a row now that you've nearly met your end in the process.
>Vys Pool: (29/68)

You withdraw from the trance, and find yourself once more sitting within the ruined portion of the library. Nothing seems to have changed. There is no hole into the void sitting before you where the book used to be. However, the soft blue glow has vanished and your access to the book which the barrier guarded.

Rising, you approach the book where it rest upon an altar crafted from what looks like the bones of a man. It becomes eminently clear that the binding of the book is made of skin, likely taken from several different individuals and stitched together if you had to guess.

The fact that yall niggas think that a thousand year old enchanter would be dumb enough to leave her phylactery(if she has one) in base reality (and here in a populated library where there are books detailing how to break the defenses put upon it) shows how dumb you guys are.

If she has one it's in her realm, behind innumerable defenses.

When you have enemies who can manipulate realities, you don't keep your backup in a manufactured reality bubble that can be popped albeit with great effort.

Well I'll give you that anon. It's likely the very same plan shared by both the cultists and the secret service Vatis of ancient Hiacia had just prior to facing off against each other at ground zero.
