@everyone just a heads up, these events are visible to everyone in the Castle 🙂

Basil:

“I think he would if given a proper incentive.  I’m sure you have something he’s been desperately searching for. What was it again? The Core? Was that it? Is that you, Basil? Because it would be a shame for your pesky friend’s search to come to such a swift end, now, wouldn’t it?”

Basils’ eyes widened in horror as a low groan rumbled in the air, as if a great building shifting and buckling under sudden pressure.

You wouldn’t.

The tunnel swam in his vision as the pressure mounted, filling his ears and compressing his body from all angles.  He gasped, his breathing ragged and torn in the charged air.  The air buzzed and crackled.  Fractals of blinding light tore across the hall like fractured bolts of lightning.  Basil winced as a metallic screech ripped the stale air, rising in an earsplitting shriek as reality fractured around him.  A very human howl of agony suddenly spilled across the hall.

Basil squinted.  Huh?

“I SAID LET GO!”

“And I said NOT UNTIL YOU TAKE ME BACK!”

Sasha stumbled out of nowhere, head bent down, Saskia dragging behind.   Her fists were knotted in his long hair, eyes spitting flames.  She grit her teeth and yanked, hard.  Sasha shrieked.  “Letgoletgoletgo – ”

“I’ll let go when we’re back in Spire,” Saskia hissed.

“I MEAN IT!  Please, Skia, YOU’RE HURTING ME!”

“THAT’S KINDA THE POINT, YA BLAZIN’ IDIOT!”

“SILENCE!”  the Castle thundered.  The two froze.  Sasha sighed in relief as Saskia’s hands flew to her holster.

“What in blazes?”

@rose-colored-fancy I think it’s time…

LET THE CHAOS BEGIN!
