Session 106: 30th August 2022 - Nothing


They arrive at the temple, Xan screaming her heart out for Ismane and Gold. No answers. She enters the balcony, and finds the Ancient Mariner. Grabbing him by his collar she drags him outside, shouting inaudibly about Helikaon’s demise, demanding his help. He takes his time crossing the bridges and meets Hipofilius to the temple. Helikaons body lies on the floor. Xan can’t bear to look. She rushes back up the ramps and clambers into the home of Ismane and Gold. 


She looks around, nothing of value, not what she wanted. Hipofilius asked for a diamond, they need this. She didn’t know why but she was determined. She searched through every place she would have hidden a diamond. Nothing. She grabbed a blanket from the bed and dragged it down to where he was lying. The ancient mariner sails off to send a message to the Ultros.


An eagle flies above their heads. Their gaze is drawn down to their friend appearing through the water, Alke and Theo approach.


They rush to Helikaon and panic set in, they rush and scream and cry across their friends body. Xan notices an absence. Calliope. 


She was sent to take Ismane to a safe place. They talk of a hill, an abandoned house, the cliff. Xan slides back across a wall and slips out into the sunrise.
