And once the water starts to rise
and heaven's out of sight,
With how her last visit to a shrine ending in a very embarrassing exit (that was luckily unwitnessed by any sentient being), Thal wasn't inclined to visit the cavern by the Black Lake. She swore she could still feel those little demons crawling on her hands. At least the Temple should hopefully be upkept enough to avoid any such unwanted visitors, although she still wouldn't put it past a nasty spirit or two.

When she doesn't spot any people - or eight-legged monstrosities - Thal makes her way to the familiar stone at the center of the vast chamber, her steps echoing in the space. The mark of bloody handprints gives the space a coppery tang, the coating turning the dark stone to a deep, dull red. Her hands don't hesitate to pull her obsidian daggers from her hip, slicing into her palm to add her fresh blood to the old prints.

She holds her hand there and tries to dispel the hint of nerves with a deep sigh before she calls out to the goddess. "Lady Dygra, I don't feel like I've had much luck catching your attention lately, but if you have a moment, I'd like to ask again for my daggers to be enhanced, to be able to call them back to me in the heat of battle." Despite her desires, and what she's been asking after for months, there's also a low undertone of softness, of having nearly forgotten what it's like to be in the presence of the goddess. Thal dips her head, a quiet whisper too gentle to catch the echo escaping her lips. "Or even just to hear your voice..."



Thalassa is requesting (again) for a quest to give her daggers the power to be controlled with her voice!

Dygra
"Sometimes, little dark one, the time simply is not right. And other times, it is." Dygra's voice does, indeed, thrum out through the shrine in the Temple, low and sensuous and rumbling through Thalassa's very bones with its depth and weight. Heat will seem to pulse against her hand, against the bloody print she leaves on the slab of obsidian, and a sense of warmth and satisfaction will fill her to the brim.

"It would not do for a weapon to remain out of reach when it could be much better used in battle," Dygra agrees, her presence echoing, unseen, throughout the room. "Worry not, child of chaos. You have been heard today. And by the time we are finished, your blades will heed your call as well..."



Thalassa has received a quest from Dygra! She must:

1. Complete a thread encountering echo sharks, paying close attention to the way they are able to speak and mimic voices.
2. Complete a thread collecting a conch shell from the waters surrounding Apopo.
3. Complete a thread encountering and killing a lamplighter, collecting a few of its scales.
4. Complete a thread singing a duet with another person.

She will receive:

Type: Grey| Style: Other | Level: Basic
Oral Charm | A small charm inlaid on the hilt of the Obsidian Daggers that allows one to be controlled via singing, within a range of 10 ft. Controlling a dagger takes an action to complete.

And once the water starts to rise
and heaven's out of sight,
The voice sends a vibration through her spine and down every limb, rattling and powerful in its wake. A heat starts in her palm, reaching farther into her veins with every beat of her heart, a warmth that banishes any doubts of the goddess's affection, easing her soul as she nods in understanding. "I guess that's just the way of the world." All chaos and unknown outcomes, timing and coincidence a figment of imagination.

Thal listens carefully, appreciative that Dygra understands her so well. It brings a reverent smile to her face, a content hum harmonizing with the rumbling heat that flows through her body. Her head dips low to acknowledge the quest. "Thank you, Dygra. I will sing your praises when this is all over." She doesn't lift her hand until the voice fades, memorizing the timbre and tone so that she might not forget it again so soon. 

[FIN]
