Pursuit of the Sun 1.2

There was no desire to return to the void that had rejected her; nor was there any desire to fight her embodiment, where there are no concepts of victory or defeat. The remnants of this character's consciousness are trying to reach upwards, towards the light.

He almost succeeds, but an unexpected obstacle gets in the way.

For now, it shows no signs of aggression, nor any other signs of life.

Ah, what bliss... and the world no longer seems so gray, and the Voidlings no longer make me want to kill... all it takes is a little blood.

Smiling to himself, Ottar returns to Master Gasu.

- Yeah. It's a normal place.
- In the Citadel? Well, it's hard to say... An expedition is being organized to the west. And I was invited... As a reward, they promised me another building for preaching and a hundred gold. I thought about it and agreed. They also said that I can take anyone I want. So, if anyone wants to...

-- I've already spent more time here than I planned, -- grumbles Gratin.
-- If you go, I'll be the only Fire Mage here... -- Arno mused. -- Maybe if I send a letter home, they'll send someone else, but that won't be quick. Very not quick.
-- So, it's just me, -- Raul smiles. -- Well, there's hardly anything in my life that would deter me from an adventure that has a greater than fifty percent chance of leading to death in the abyss... You can put me down, then.
