Chapter 1050: Report
In the past, Lady Fe had rely been the leader of a aningless cult, in hindsight, it was obvious that the beliefs she used to preach about held no truth whatsoever, deep down, Fe had known that she was rely spouting nonsense for personal benefit, but at the ti, the fervour was so great, that she too was imrsed in the lie profoundly.
Everything changed when Loimos appeared before, dressed in three-piece suit of foreign manufacture, a skeletal being that stepped out of the shadows, most others would have been terrified, or at the very least shocked by the sight before them, but for so reason, Fe had known instantly that he represented providence, that he was like an arch-angel descended from the heavens to deliver a ssage.
Of course, apparently, due to the nature of this realm, Loimos was unable to speak at all, and so, it was left to soone else to speak for him, Fe wasn’t truly certain of who One was exactly, the High Priestess assud that she was his missus considering the loving way she looked at Loimos and acted around him.
Honestly, One had been quite the shock to Fe, the vampiress was an otherworldly beauty, literally, her face was pale like that of a corpse, but that was it, there was nothing else that could be described as a flaw about that woman, she was just stunningly beautiful, forever youthful, athletic and seemingly driven by a great goal.
Compared to the two undeads, Fe had been nothing but a vagrant, a woman who had abandoned all semblances of a normal life to go hide into the mountains and be worshipped by easily deceived fools, she had since long given up on being a part of society or interacting with others beyond the followers of her cult, in a sense, she had already deed her life to be as good as it could get.
It was pathetic, but it was the best she could manage, so there was no reason to complain.
That day however, it seed like Loimos saw sothing within her that interested him, after all, amongst the nurous people he could have chosen from, why settle on her? And how did he even find her in the first place? Fe did not dare ask, but it seed rather obvious that Loimos had simply known where to find the perfect candidate to guide the will of death in this realm.
Fe beca Lady Fe, High Priestess of Los Libres, and soon enough, Loimos and One perfected the stagnant water.
As the na implied, although many things had been used to create it, at its heart, this source was rely water that had grown still, festering with countless things that could kill a person.
Fe was the first to experience the completed form of the stagnant water, as Loimos rather unceremoniously tossed her into, seemingly perfectly confident that she would be able to adapt to it without a problem, and indeed, what a revelation it was for her, it was like she had been born for this, the malignant force, capable of eroding the strongest of wills, beca obedient before her, perfectly rging with her body.
And that was when she realised that the stagnant water was just a substance, it was a being, and it would keep on evolving as it spread and extended its influence…
Afterwards, she received her mission, and did not see Loimos for a long ti, One had sotis co by, and a handful of other undeads entered the realm to perform research, but her interactions with them were limited, the only undead that seed willing to speak with her was One.
That was how Fe stayed aware of the developnts outside of the realm, and One was also the one who taught her and the others how to speak the erald tongue, claiming that it might be useful, and that even if it wasn’t, that it was important to learn new things.
And indeed, unexpectedly, it turned out to be imnsely useful, otherwise, they never would have realised that the strange invaders were actually from beyond the realm.
And so, Fe made the decision to call for Loimos’s assistance, she believed that by now, he should no longer be held up by the matter that had caused him not to show up in years.
Indeed, within less than an hour, the skeleton appeared before her, looking the exact sa as the last ti she had seen him, though she could tell that his presence had grown more profound.
One was here as well, and she look quite different, first of all, her eyes were now a bright, glowing pink, and overall, it seed like she had grown even more beautiful than before, additionally, there was third person present this ti, a woman Fe had never t, but who gave off quite the chilling impression.
Her lower jaw was tallic, and it seed that like Loimos, she was unable to speak in this realm, leaving it up to One to act as a mouthpiece like usual.
“Fe, what is that you wish to report?” she asked with a smile, the vampiress still feeling giddy from her advancent.
The High Priestess bowed slightly before responding.
“We have encountered invaders from another realm” she replied, the two undead won showed a bit of a reaction to that, but as per usual, Loimos was as unreadable as a random rock on the side of the road.
All he did was rely move his hand, indicating that Fe should continue speaking.
“That is not the most worrying part, they were speaking the erald tongue… The three of them looked sowhat alike too, I believe that they were siblings”
One took a few monts before saying anything else, that was quite the information, speaker of the erald tongue could only an the escapees, as the entire Erald Realm was under undead control now, and sohow, those refugees had travelled to another realm, and the realm they had travelled to was this one at that? Either this was a deliberate move to ss with the Empire’s interests, or this was an enormous coincidence.
In any case, this needed to be investigated, this might be a lead toward finding the escapees, they might have left a trace behind, sothing that could be used to track down, and pinpoint the realm they were currently residing in.
“Is there sothing else you want to say?” the vampiress noticed Fe’s behaviour.
“I… I am uncertain of what I witnessed, but one of the invaders demonstrated abilities that caused a bright shine… A golden brightness…” she said.
“…A golden glow?”
“Yes, that is a good way to describe it”
“Filthy rats…” One muttered sothing in death tongue, it seed like certain things simply refused to be buried.
