With a downward glance, Zenos saw the sheathed katana. "Yotsu, I-" "Enough of this shite!" Fordola put her hands on Yotsu and guided her gently away from the open elevator door. "We don't have time for this! Go, Yotsu! I'll keep these morons safe!" Apprehension burned through Alisaie's veins like ceruleum. Was this the right decision? Could she even do it? Would Yugiri do it? But that didn't matter. Bris would do it. "Yotsu! The bridge!" Alisaie said. "Please! You're better at running things than me! I can be the sword, but I need you to be my eyes and arm!" Yotsu looked stone-faced at the trio. Then she nodded and turned. She bolted across the halls to a separate elevator. "Well," Zenos said. "I am beginning to think you Eorzeans are simply obsessed with suicide missions." Alisaie flashed a sharp grin. "Got a pretty good track record though, aye?"

Aria di Mezzo - Complete.

Since this was originally split up across four prompts, I thought now with the month over I'd combine them together for reading convenience.

Alphinaud allows himself a brief smile, his gaze rising from the papers in hand to the Warrior of Light's eyes. Her narrowed, feline, very angry eyes. Soren gently takes his arm and pulls him to a darker corner for an ilm of privacy.

"Our first wave of recruitment is over, the documents signed, and the finances secure. There is naught to prevent me from taking the next step." Alphinaud allows himself a brief smile, his gaze rising from the papers in hand to the Warrior of Light's eyes. Her narrowed, feline, very angry eyes. Soren gently takes his arm and pulls him to a darker corner for an ilm of privacy. Far be it from her to divulge her past, Soren had always remained pointedly quiet on topics of Ul'dah - or any city state for that matter, feigning ignorance wherever she could. The Immortal Flames she could tolerate - they'd never really been a major bone to pick - but the Brass Blades and the bloody Syndicate was another story. Twelve above, the reason she was even having this conversation with Alphinaud to BEGIN with is because of people like them."What. Are. You. Thinking, Alphinaud?" she seethes through gritted teeth. "I think I need not expound on the reasons that, of all places, Ul'dah money is a bad idea! Even Raubahn has a distaste for his own government!" It's much easier to hide behind someone else. Alphinaud sighs, patting her hand in return. "You are concerned by the Syndicate's involvement? As was I. Thus was the origin of every coin of their contribution carefully scrutinized and recorded." He glowers, turning his gaze back towards the guards' quarters. His voice is ice when he finishes, "This organization will not be built on corruption. Naturally, I would prefer not to rely upon outside sources at all, but even my family's substantial coffers could not sustain a venture of this magnitude."Soren deflates and retreats into her clamshell of secrets, the fire in her expression quickly hidden behind placid, neutral features. The hallmark of the Warrior, she had apparently decided along the way. Alphinaud was as headstrong as he was genius at manipulating political situations, and he did have a huge advantage over Soren - the Sultana herself in his good graces. She could not reasonably stop his juggernaut now, least of all without putting her own hide in danger of retribution from within the city. She may be a hero now, but she still felt ever so small. She desperately hoped they would find a way to change course of their funds soon, and in the meantime, offer her help to Tataru with any of the paper trails -- even if just to be an errand girl -- and to see for herself that naught would come to pass.

Snippet 28!

Look into his eyes. It would be rude not to when he’s talking to you. It’s not as if there is much else on his face you can see. They truly are beautiful, there are none else like them in the Brume. Like staring into the depths of a sea of gold. Pay no heed to how your skin crawls, the feeling of cool smooth fingers cradling your heart. He will probe. He will listen. He will open your body and lay your soul out bare for him. It is his first trap. Behind you, a thin line crackles across the ice. He will change. He will act as your perfect companion. Asking all the right questions and reacting in all the right ways. A siren beckoning you closer to the deepest part of the lake, either softly around the cracks already showing, or right for the weakest point.

Tasuka shot up out of the water.  “The Garleans?  You should leave that to someone else.  The last time we got mixed up with Valeria and her unit – well, you know.  Not to mention, it’s even more dangerous with Zenos in the country.”  Her voice had gotten progressively louder the whole time she’d been speaking. “Oi, oi,” Bris said, motioning for Tasuka to lower her voice.  “Yer gonna wake up the whole town, and this is the first real bath I’ve had since I left.  I don’t wanna have ta deal with yer neighbors.”  Once the roegaedyn had seated herself back in the water, Bris continued, “But it has ta be me, Taka.  That’s all there is about it.  Besides, I’m not that girl anymore.  So, ya don’t need ta worry.” “That’s exactly why I am worried,” Tasuka sighed.  “So if it’s just you, then what’s the deal with your companion?  The raen?” Bris blinked.  “Yugiri?” “Friend?  Traveling companion?”  Tasuka frowned slightly.  “Something…more?”The Ala Mhigan woman looked over the page for a moment. When she reached the end, she burst out laughing. "Oh, he's being cheeky!" She couldn't stop laughing. "Poor kid is barking up the wrong tree, I fear. I'm afraid he won't get to do the horizontal tango with that hag, no matter how much fancy wine he gets." "Fordola." Alisaie rubbed her temples. "Please don't call Aunt Yotsu a hag. And please don't call my brother 'kid.' If that's what you think of him, I am loath to imagine what you must think of me." Another loud laugh. Fordola patted Alisaie on the head. "What's the matter? Suddenly worried about the age difference? You think about it a little, and you don't wanna be our younger girlfriend?" She ruffled the elezen's hair. "It can't be that bad. You had the guts to tell Brisingr your feelings, and she's even older than I am."

🔥 Flame in the Darkness 🔥 1982 words 🔥

Here, she is not Soren, nor Azem, nor hero. She is all she ever was: V'kahzu Rhoz.

In the wake of the events of 7.5, Soren dreams in the darkness, a claymore in hand.

Soren walks towards the Ethos portal between worlds. On the left, she wears the outfit she wore during 7.5, her long orange hair nearly the same color as the fire around her. On the right, a silhouette in an Ancient robe walks astride with her, a Dark Knight claymore on her back. The text at the top reads "Do not squander it. The legacy I leave you." Bottom text: "The greatest strength is born of the flame in the abyss."

Snippet 25

“Pray forgive my curiousity, but you look to the sky quite often, ser,” Lucient asks, staring up alongside him, “why do you do so?” Victurvien is quiet for a long while. So long Lucient thinks he may not have heard him. But he chuckles before Lucient has the chance to repeat himself. “‘Tis better than always looking to the ground, wouldn’t you agree?” Lucient giggles and nods. “Is that all? That cannot be the only reason, can it?” “Fury help me, your questions will end only at a trial before the Inquisition, won’t they…” Victurvien mutters to himself, though no real exasperation seems to be behind his words. Lucient narrowly catches himself before he answers that rhetorical. “It is because I wish to fly.”
