[ Very suddenly, there’s a sense of Communion touching your character’s mind. However, it’s as if they connect with the mind of a shared Aspect, as they’re not able to block out the brief, but sharp memory that comes to them. ]
The dusk of Springstar’s sunset cast long shadows, and a Shard-Bearer couldn't help but feel that, like those shadows, they too were stretched and altered by their new existence. When they go home, would anyone even recognize what they’ve become?
[ ooc note — Just to avoid OOC confusion/misinterpretation, the details included in this memory are random and are not necessarily interconnected or plot meaningful beyond a surface level. However, your character is free to interpret this random memory however they’d like! This event will also be touched on somewhat during today’s NPC Communion Post. ]
[ Link's Communion explodes into Cid's mind with more force and detail than anyone else. Where other Zenites are blasted with it suddenly, like the opening of a window during a hurricane, it hits Cid twice as hard thanks to their shared Aspect. It rushes in with an intense and primal sense of panic, a mixture of both fight and flight, and the horror of knowing that neither has worked. A certain death is imposing down on him. If you've died before, you'll likely recognize this potent cocktail of desperation that's suddenly flooding your mind. But unlike the flashing of one's life in the moment before the end, this moment is filled with purpose — unfocused and clumsy, but desperately bold and determined. The message is not conveyed in words, but in feelings and impressions, unbound by the limitations of language and becoming that much more distinct and impossible to misinterpret. ]
Get away from the Manor.
Get out of Highstorm if you can.
The Meridian —
[ ...and then, it's gone. Both the message and the roaring sensations that carry it halt abruptly, like the slamming of a door — but, even a slammed door makes a sharp noise as it shuts, sends a gust of wind as it moves on its hinges. This sudden stop doesn't come with anything, no friction, no echo, not even the intentionality of closing a Communion once a person has said what they meant to say. Just stillness. ]
mid-september, communion
[ Link's mental voice emerges from the other side of an opening Communion between their minds, soft and neutral. ]
...Sorry I never invited you out. I didn't end up going anywhere to celebrate. I passed out in my room, to be honest. But, um, are you busy?
