Ritual 19 - Vengeance

[wooliefrand]

WHO: Sheep
WHERE: The Pasture
WHEN: Evening, Day 54 (to give some buffer to post-rescue talks during the day)

[Well THAT was a trip. But everyone is returned home relatively safely, the mushrooms are under control, and Death's eye is closed. Maybe things can return to semi-normalcy.

Lol. Lmao.

A dark shadow suddenly sweeps across the Pasture, and you'll find yourself forcibly yanked from where you stand, lay in bed, or otherwise where you're minding your business--though, some will be missed, inevitably. Those who get grabbed though get to glimpse at a massive shadow-like demon, wolf like in appearance but with giant ram horns, glaring down at you. His voice speaks as a whisper in your minds.

You will Speak his Vengeance.

If you do not speak it, I will enact it on his Behalf.

A random sheep waddles by, and then shadows overtake it--the poor sheep begins to contort, gasping for air as it's stretched and twisted into an unnatural eldritch mass, but still Very Much Alive. It rolls off to enjoy its eternal suffering.

And just like that you're yanked into the shadows, the demon's Intent clear in your heads. It's Ritual Time.]

Ah, so you think she's merely possessing the sheep bodies, and isn't actually one... interesting.

[debug_mode]

Ding ding ding~

There's something else I can tell you, but... hm.

I'll need to confirm it, first.

[eonsadrift]

With who, the snake?

[debug_mode]

Exactly.

...Something weird happened the other day. It was like I saw some of the Snake's memories.

And I don't like the claim that someone other than the Snake "controls my powers."

I could probably investigate this another way, but I need to talk to the Boss himself. ...Want.

[eonsadrift]

You did..?

I heard Sonata saw some of Daisy's memories before, so I suppose it's possible. I'm very curious about what you saw, but I guess I can wait for you to confirm whatever it is you need to confirm first.

...you should talk to him for your own peace of mind, anyway.

[debug_mode]

Let's just say what I saw matches up everything I already knew. Or at least, suspected. --In a good way.

But, do you really need me to tell you the Snake is an unfairly maligned entity, and its goals are only to free us from Blossom's influence?

[it's word-for-word what's written about the Snake in the book in the clinic.]

[eonsadrift]

I have very little sympathy for Blossom at the moment, but I still have some doubts about her ability to "influence". I also think the Snake is kind of an idiot in over his head, but I admittedly haven't seen him in a while.

I'll reserve my judgment until after you tell me everything you've found out.

[debug_mode]

...I think we're all in over our heads at this point.

Anything you'd like to know about the mist? We saw a lot of things out there.

[eonsadrift]

I wasn't really paying attention to much other than the mansion.
