They say it started with visions from different groups of the light converging under the call Of The Consort of Sylvania and Tyger of Aera and The Banishing of The Horune from several dimensions at once and entirely within The Crown.


***Three-sisters Verse……. 


***Bailey-E… We’ve been fighting and raiding these bastards for a week now. It doesn’t seem that long but between our scry searches and then portalling there it took time right up until Kass gete’s word from Her people.


And our space is relatively easier for us to do our share in and go and help Dorian and our Sylvans as a way of introduction as well as Kass has some ideas on who to contact on Rune and Titan to alert them to their issues they might have there.


Most of our fighting was in our space in our dimension and in and around Demonstar and places where underwater bases can be and where black markets and slaves are.


We’re gating but after day three I’ve gathered enough people on Aera and techs and have coms with them that Kass and I take questions of some of the Splugorth and Horune ship tech we have and repairing and altering some of it and They used trash metals melted and molded for the first noses of the rebuild Horune Hammerheads but we launch three Aeran Sturgeon shark modelled attack ships.


More importantly we’re air and sea and spaceworthy on our own.


We backed our Sylvans first and for us that was searching their outlying planets with them as Sylvania is just the 4th planet and 3 and 5 have people and there are nine in total all seeing industrial uses as much as they can with the small fleet they have.


We seen most action in these shitty hell holes in Demonstart but we found old remnants of Forsaken camps in lunar bunkers of other moons on the other planets and we ended up engaging in a concealed space station battle that was mostly kitani automated inside a gas giant that was making munitions. Explosive gases made to condensed liquids or solids some fuel others for warfare as they’re explosive and automated plants are making mines and short range warheads.


They still had a hiding out crew and transport gates made to other places most we had hit but they still used slaves for workers and other things. It was still used as one more way people just vanished.


Then an Ice mine prison on the ice moon of Allurus a romantic coloured gas giant that is mostly methane and nitrogen. Allurus-8 was a Forsaken and others held slave mine under thousands of feet of ice and were mining a seabed of immense gems created by the pressure involved.


We worked with others including other realities of us all which was an…adjustment.


I was not expecting to find “Kali Hunter.”


Her kind I know, I’ve met a few sparingly in my days and “The Hunters” we Hunt Society in space the last of the Pioneers and they held tight to their ways to keep them and fed millions as we ran for our lives leading the scouting with other like families and Kali’s people might be from those same ships but later on.


“I know what you are, I know it’s been more than hell, it’s been a Gog-orgy but if you were me and leading and found one of you what would you do? Can we borrow your rage and skills?”


It sounds merc but I make sure that as we help we get not just paid but we get a share, a seat at the table when it comes to the things we find here in those places.


I negotiate the return of Sylvan prisoners we have rescued on our end and they offer reward and we hold our honours and we refuse to a house and we do take our shares and we do take advise.


Our shares are gem wealth yes but that’ll be mostly used in tech magic as the gems we have from the lunar moon are pristine. Minerals, money, weapons and I ransom a buyout on our share of those bases in Sylvan territory which lets them pay us honour good all the way around.


And since our command is at the Holy City and at the Consort Jay’s temple and he just took some serious SOB I slip out and head to The holy City BBQ and hire them as well as several other food vendors in the city that do Kyu and South Kyu foods and L’honei styled pit cooking places and the temple of Brune the goddess of Bread and Beer and I quickly take some of that money as things are settling for us but still have hours to go and I order a feast of BBQ and all the other things.


Then we go back to helping and like all with Rynn was in these places some of those we rescue have no one, no people or places and I and others make offers.


But part of Aeran isn’t ever going to be pure fleet blood. We bought loads of camp followers and rescued them, made them Aeran’s.


Helping in other realms, other realities is volunteer only, it’s much more out of our way and what would be our range normally.


But we can hurt evil for a good while with this.


I do concentrate on Dive gear, smelting and mining updated gear and items first and then medical things either tech or knowledge or magic.


Kass and I have done this before, built things from their things and salvage and made our own things back then and we’re doing it now.

I never expected rescue, especially not from Cass and a different version of Bailey. Different version? Ha.

More like an 'original', from home.

And the Sylvan, I never knew his name until someone said it during my capture. They called him Highwood, like Dorian's last name, but he wasn't Dorian, or Lyam so...

Yes, we met fighting but I only got out into the ring after they were done 'playing' with me. Apparently my 'alters' have a reputation and they wanted to see how close to 'them' I was.

But rescue...

And he healed me with Ashani healing.

So when he asked me to help, what choice was there? Not only did I owe him for saving me - even if I didn't want it - but... but this was Tyger. The REAL Tyger... not that bastard Whyteclaw respark...

Of course I helped.

No, I don't hero worship him, but this is... a campaign and he's obviously leading it so I do follow orders, to a point. And I am not... lenient. Once I'm healed and good to fight, I'm like an attack dog unleashed. I know it sounds bad but it's just how I am...

During the fighting I learn about Cass; she's who I knew but not, she's something else, something more, now. What gets me is she's with Tyger and...

Well she did go back into the past, so perhaps it's tied into that.

All of that, and fighting to rescue people.

We do 'home base' from Sylvania, from Jay's temple actually and something kicked their collective nests as I can feel their pissed and that's when I learn about Rob's background but more... this old Skywood clan person...

In between fighting I wander the city a little and it's different from home, but not. What gets me stopped though is watching Bailey and Cass... er... Kass? There's a different sound of her name now. A hardness in it and when before she was the whole healer who touched the Lifestream, she still does that, but... I don't know, there's just a difference.

But her and Bailey are working on gear and I stop and watch them.

I sort of just watch them still, arms folded across my chest but moreso a hug than anything and I...

I thank him for the knives he makes me though I tell him that "I don't deserve these." I stare at them long and hard before looking up at him. "I... I've done things, Tyger. I-"

"You were at war, Kali... and sometimes shit goes sideways in war."

I look at Kass since I was not expecting that and I frown. "You're Cass but-"

"But not?" She shrugs. "Things... changed after I saw you last on A'era. Things happened and... I remembered who I really was."

"Really was?"

She nods. "It's a little complicated but... I'm from the Old Verse."

And that... I stare at her then blink slowly. "I... well..."

But she gives this half-smile that's still very much her. "Let me explain?" And the layers to those three words has me nod and I find a place to sit and listen.

I am... quiet in the rescues; violent, sure, but I don't talk. What strikes me though is Kass and Bailey, they talk and talk about back then and I learn a bit more about both of them that I never knew.

When he asks for volunteers to hit the worst places, of course I go with them.

And as much as it's rescue I... I hope for fighting, I hope for killing, death... all of... that.

And though I help build the rescue ship and there are so many kids here and I can tell they've their own trauma's...

I still can't open up to anyone. I just... can't.

I feel it, as we hit the places I feel it. I can cut loose, truly cut loose.

I can lash out and let my rage and fury go and it'll be for a good reason.

I give no quarter, no mercy, and those that use civilians for shields I am even less 'lenient' with. And many... many I Eternally push on them the fear/terror/agony that they have put on others.

Humans believe in the Vish Goddess Kali and no, I don't know her or follow that faith, but for this... I am Vengeance like she might unleash.

Tyger I expected to be... intense.

But Kass.

She was not this back there. She was a "Nova", she channeled the Lifestream to heal. Yet I see her more than once dispose of not just those beyond help, but those who caused them to reach the state. She's also talking with someone else too, not just Tyger, someone she passes information on to, especially about those who suffered with the bio-mods and experiments with the Sylvans.

But the moment I even felt the Cytorakkians...

Tyger clears the path.

And Kass... she magics me giving me even more stamina to fight them. I'm... confused but she looks at me and says, "We can talk later. For now, deal with them, Kali." And that is... that...

I go off to hunt them for the bastards they are.

... I... I did not know/expect that, that the Cyto's actually came to raid our people...

If anything that just pisses me off on another level of pissed.

But I also let people, Bailey, know that not only did I kill one who was twisted up, but the history my family has with them too, and the one family that Brian's from...

What they did to my parents.

Vara and I.

I... I share it all because maybe... maybe they will get it, they will understand why I am so driven...

Kali

I was not...

I was not expecting this from them, from him.

From even that bastard Cyto that K'ai is with, or rather, who fawns over her.

I... when Bailey says to leave the seconds, I do and he's right. "They will hate this, see this as retaliation, and they will come for us."

And I hear K'ai sigh. "And I can only do so much with Cytorakk. Despite the faith they have, a lot of them think he's like any other God, so half-myth. And they've made up their own mythos too that all of this is some sort of punishment and test both, to push the people to become their utmost best so they can return, beat his ass and take the power from him."

"Fanatics like that... you can't reason with them."

And she tells us what she did to the one who was in on assassinating Dorian and Lani, how she showed him Cytorakk, then removed that memory and how it absolutely broke him. And since I was there I second her words.

Though I can't help but wonder how Bailey would take this since...

This is K'ai... but not K'ai as he knew her.

I...

I can't help it, I'm actually staring at him.

"You... you would..."

This... this is what...

**You feel it from Kali; this is what she wanted, what she hoped for. Before now it was just her and her sister in this 'war' and despite the vengeance against the one family who killed her parents, she always knew that the Cytorakkians were at war with their people and when she brought that warning to Bailey and others, no one seemed to give a damn, and when her sister started to be with Brian...

There's a huge, huge weight off of her because finally someone believes her, finally someone's going to do something and... and when the tears come they're so genuine and it's like something was lanced in this validation.

And Kass... she is quietly watching but... she's got some sort of recording device and she's been recording Bailey's words, and Kali's reaction to them, then did something before putting the device away and looking towards Kali.**



Kass

"He's right, and with K'ai and Jorath's help, we can make the scouting safer so we can get in and out all the easier."

Then I look at Bailey and grin. "Granted it's a very fine ass but no, considering the time you were brought back, during an attack on A'era... sitting on your ass was never the option."

I nod and start briefing everyone we get on not just the Cyto's overall, but their powers, their abilities, their attitudes, habits...

And there's more and more coming...


Kass

I open up more gates as we need them but I do pause and... "Jorath, can you manifest power like Brian did?"


Dark K'ai

This is... fucking hell, this is a second operation on top of a first...

I also hear though that the Kilrathi are going to attack...

And I'm torn, at least until Kass looks at me. "We need you here. I'm sure Jay can get backup needed for the Kilrathi... we'll need you."

"Why-"

"You've seen Cytorakk, spoken to him. You know how the zelots will react to someone having been in your position."

...

"You want me to-"

"If need be, project a mass Religious Delerium on them, let it sit long enough for them to be overwhelmed in it, then remove it."

I...

I nod. I know how effective it was on Sylvania. "We don't need to kill anyone-"

"But stopping them will be enough," she adds and she's right.

The hug and kiss from Jorath shocked me even though I... liked it. When he brought up living off of my family I huffed, a little bit of blush on my face. "Considering every other wayward person they've taken in I don't think they'll mind." And then he offered his blood to bypass things...

Yeah, no wonder he asked about a place to stay. And it showed... the change in him.

I was... not gentle when it came to interrogating people - if they deserved it. But I can't help but admit that Bailey...

This... him...

If there is an alter like him out there, the closest may be Mainstream. He's commanding, thorough, puts people in charge where they're best help and yes he may be the brought back version of himself but...

It has me thinking... not so nice things about me, myself. So... I'm a little rougher than I probably should be...

That's even after Jor... did what he did, not just in offering the help he did to get to his world, but the hug and kiss...

And throw in Hearth with it all...

I am... so twisted up-lost... and when that happens I get, well... violent. Punishing...

God like.

And... maybe we play that a bit. I act like the pissed off super natural being and Jor, he plays 'good cop' and calms me down and not only do we try to use that to get what we want, but to turn a few to our side, if we can and they're worthy.


Kass

I pass word on to Bailey about the N'yai drifts with a little half-smirk there. I already give them permission before he can even say anything, with a "We'd be stupid to say no."

But when my phone goes off and I look, I glance at Bailey then open a gate to let Savara come through. When she does she gives me a double take, bites her lip but then, "So... this is for real?"

I nod.

"Where's Kal?"

"She's giving a briefing of everything she knows to people and explaining the more intense powers they might come across." Then I gesture. "That way."

"Thanks," then she heads off to where Kal is, giving Bailey a little nod but focus.

That I was stopped is a bit... surprising and what they say is...

"I'm not likely to be squeamish and I'm not here to cause trouble."

I look at the one who asked about letting Kal know and I...

"No, no but thank you for asking."

Their attitude though, when I go past them, has me cautious, wary and... wondering just who will I encounter, Kali my sister, or Kali who wants nothing to do with me and who is dangerous to everyone around her?


Dark K'ai

That Bailey doesn't react negatively is... it's...

It only makes my head spin more.

But then Jor suggests that... that...

~I... I think you're right. I think the Guardian Force just sat up and went "Oh hello" with that thought.~

And I can't help part of me wants to... lash out at him, tell him I'm not her, I never was, he never knew me and...

And part of me just wishes I could fall against him and let go.

I can't do either of those things... and that just... hurts the most.

~No, the Guardian Force can 'speak' to whoever it wishes; just because I felt it pick up positively from what you said doesn't make me a Guardian or anything like them.~

And I can't help but be... angry, to push a little harder, lash out a little more and...

And I spin and stalk off before I do more damage than they want and they have to 'deal with me'.

My fingers curl in and I stop, turn to him.

"Don't be... you KNOW you shouldn't be, no one should."

And I... I work my jaw a little. "And it's not that you pointed that out. So it wasn't... it's not just that, okay? I... I can't do this. I'm going to kill people if I keep doing this so it's I walk away or I turn brains into mush."

And I want to, that's... I wrap my arms around myself, curl my fingers into my arms and turn to walk away from him.

This is a mistake, it's all a mistake I...

I feel the heat of tears in my eyes and I hunch all the more and I just...

I feel Bailey lead Jorath away and that's good, that's... good...

But I can feel it, that burning anger inside and I just want to cut loose again and I just...

Feel like I can't.

Which makes things all the worse...
