The Evealia Guide Through Babel (event) - Part IV

Man, why do all of you have the most terrible names to remember? This is what actual witchcraft sounds like. Aefanyl. I'm going to scramble him like I'm scrambling these letters trying to make the name Logos out of this Scrabble.

Even more interesting is the aspect that she used magic to preserve the way she looks, so she can be eternal in his memory. It's kind of sweet, kind of... sad. Very sad if you think about how it seems like she doesn't have a long time left. I wonder if I can find anything else about her--

O, lady,

THIS MAKES SO MUCH SENSE NOW, LOOK AT THIS

SHE IS ONE OF THE SIX HEROES????

That makes... Her, Theresis, Theresa, Kal'tsit....? Two more are missing. It might be obvious but I genuinely forgot right now. I'm sure when Dr. Pinkie sees this she's going to beat me over the head since we spoke about this.

Anyways,

Ascalon is fighting with Theresis this time. It's a bittersweet goodbye too.

Theresis is still respected by Ascalon, so it's a struggle for her to face him truly. He's also giving her some fair pointers as a last goodbye.

[You still don't know what you seek, do you? To protect? That's just empty self-deceptive sentimentality. When you're unsure of your path, you merely project your motivations onto vague ideals.] <I really like this quote. Can you tell?

[I-I've thought about it carefully.]

[Perhaps. Then follow Theresa and protect her, but don't blindly adopt her ways. Think for yourself. Manfred found his answer long before you did.]

Then, Ascalon falls to one knee and turns to a mist that closes around Theresis. When it disperses, he's left with a stone knife in his hand.

As terrifying as that conversation was, nothing could prepare me for the one Theresa and Theresis had - basically agreeing that if any of them comes in the way of the other, they will have to be killed.

The Babel procession stretches far as the eye could see, past the disdainful crowd. Theresis walks towards the crowd and stand with them. He has left Theresa's side for the first time in two centuries.

They say their goodbyes.

Then something occurs, enough the silence the restless onlookers and momentarily halt the procession.

[A mercenary steps out of the line to embrace his best friend in the procession. No one can hear the whispers exchanged between the two friends by the ruins of Babel, but all are willing to wait and give them their moment of farewell.]

[A farewell between the people and their city, and between two peoples of the same blood.]

With them, Odda also part ways. With his family. His home.

For Theresa's eyes only, there's a letter. A functional ship has been excavated from Rim Billington. On it, she found something that could change the tide of history.

Given its importance, Kal'tsit has a lot of faith in its utility for their plan.

Awakening in Exhaustion

[Things have not gone according to plan.]

PRIESTESS???

Can I be honest? I'm going to be honest.

I don't really like Priestess. I think yesterday Dr. Kryo asked what we all think about her and my immediate response is 'I hope she died'. Which, I think if somebody (not me) has read Vigilo they might confirm what happened with her.

If anything, I think I'm going to go and have a little dip in Vigilo since it's one of those episodic stories and I checked out the Wiki long enough to figure out which episodes will be important to understand.

But overall, yeah, I don't like her and I've been struggling to understand the Doctor for long enough to know that I probably never will agree with their ideas. As Priestess says, us lower-intelligence lifeforms can't even hope to understand their greater plans.

And speaking of plans, we should move on with the Babel story.

Four Years Ago...

Summer, 1090

We're opening with Closure and Scout, how wonderful. Hm... Interesting, why do I have this nagging feeling that there's something inherently sad about the situation?

Ah.

Well, they are on a mission. Closure imparts with us the detail that she and Kal'tsit have secured the ship and have been working on dealing with the defence system for a specific package that is on board.

Snapping to Kal and Theresa, they're talking about a specialist in Originium, the only person who can help with their task. They stand before a set of doors that have not been opened for a long time, reminiscing in the fact that Kal'tsit, no matter how careful she is, still cannot predict all the contingencies.

But they open it anyway.

And this light, we're familiar with. There was once an event, where we witnessed this same feeling, the same occurrence and that same red light shining down on Kal'tsit. Though, this is a couple of years prior.

In Lone Trail.

[Search: Preserver... No signal.] [Search: Caerula Arbor... No signal.] [Search: Celestial Fulcrum... No signal.] [Search: (Unknown static noise)... No signal.] [.......] [Search complete. No signal detected on any channel.] All these spots we are familiar with and for me it was bone-chilling to see them. Preserver is a reference to the Preserver Project, which was created by the "First Civilization" at some point after the "disaster from above" that resulted in the Civilization's near-total annihilation. They are meant to act as overseers of the Sarcophagi where the Civilization's survivors are kept in stasis until they can be awakened when the situation stabilizes in the distant future so they can restore their civilization. [Image above]

Caerula Arbor is our current IS4. Known also as the "Creeping Branch" is a dying tree-like Leviathan representing the power of "Growth" who had lost His struggle in controlling the kin, causing Him to fall from grace from the Many. His roots grow towards the core of Terra and feed on the energy of the magma beneath the surface, and is said to have the potential to consume the entire planet if allowed to grow unchecked, but currently, the Arbor is acting as a mere food source that nourishes microscopic Seaborn cells in the ocean.

Celestial Fulcrum is uh...

:)

And actually, we know a little bit more about the unrecognisable static, because we have already seen it part of a concept trailer. We were actually JUST shown this, so I did such a good job strategically stalling just so I can put this in the script.

Voila, if you have not seen it yet.

This is very kindly provided by the Wiki.

[Last update: Four million, seven hundred fifty-five thousand, nine hundred and fifty-four days ago.]

Me thinks it's around 13K years and that's quite a bit since the last update.

So the Doctor was woken up rather early, with Originium still abound. Interesting part is, they're surprised about the way it has managed to survive/has evolved - through the Sarkaz and Oripathy.

Oh no this is so endearing....

It's so endearing and sad at the same time. Doctor learning about Theresa, holding her warm hands. She was so excited to learn the language of the past from Kal'tsit, but instead Doctor hits her with 'my world is lost'.

For those like me who missed it entirely SOMEHOW, Civilight Eterna is the Crown of the Sarkaz, although I'm not sure how Doctor recognises it when he was not present during it's... release(?) and whether he understands the significance of it differently to what I know.

She's showing the Doctor different parts of their... life, I suppose.

This quote stuck out to me a lot:

Before I'm immediately on my knees because of the mentioning of a pioneer chasing the stars is pushing forward with his fallen ally on his back.

This is UNFAIR,

THEY'RE BEING MENTIONED AGAIN.

After witnessing the way Terra is right now, the Doctor seems to take it in rather well. In their view, it's all moving in the right direction, a mix of ignorance and progress that feels nostalgic and beautiful. Within Theresa, the Doctor spots somebody who loves Terra, not just a single nation. Her ideals are pure, but ultimately, way too different. She might be loathed for that, because her people aren't ready for this kind of step.

Thus the Doctor is willing to cooperate and help by first exploring the land itself to learn about the way Originium has influenced life, culture and the environment.

Ascalon is being sent after them both for protection and with a secret little task from Theresa - to explore the things other nations have, because the Sarkaz don't have the luxury to choose.

Did Zoro save Robin again?

This post will contain spoilers from Egghead, so please read with caution if you haven't read the manga!

On Twitter, there was speculation that Zoro was likely the one who rescued Robin. Given how things panned out in Chapter 1078, 1089, and 1090, it is possible (or not).

Chapter 1078

The Straw Hats are separated into smaller groups. All groups except for Robin and Jinbe’s, are currently facing a Seraphim. The group breakdown is as follows:

• Luffy, Zoro: Fighting S-Bear and S-Hawk

• Sanji, Nami, Brook: Fighting S-Shark

• Franky, Usopp: Folding to S-Snake

• Robin, Chopper: Heading to a sealed lab

• Jinbe, Stussy: Looking for Vegapunk

The chapter then leads to the panel below.

Side Note: Although this panel has already been animated in Episode 1111, I found Lucci's comment, "It will have the benefit of rattling the stronger targets," intriguing. Sanji saving Nami proved that, but it would be nice if Zoro could do the same with Robin. We've seen Zoro's reactions before.

As mentioned, the only groups not dealing with a Seraphim are Robin and Jinbe's. Lucci mentions S-Hawk is now targeting weaker opponents, which is why I believe he is heading towards Robin's group. I'm not trying to diss Robin's group, but in comparison to Jinbe and Stussy, who both use Haki...it's not looking good.

Chapter 1089-1090

Skipping forward to Chapter 1089, we now see this panel of the Straw Hats.

And this panel from Chapter 1090.

I was hoping we'd receive some clarification as to how Robin became severely injured. Chopper and Atlas are in far better condition than Robin.

So far,

• Kaku mentions that he was up against two Seraphims. We know for sure that S-Hawk was one of them since S-Bear and S-Shark were already occupied by Luffy and Sanji.

• Zoro is looking for S-Hawk to prevent him from attacking the others.

• (I believe) S-Hawk did not target Jinbe and Stussy. Their injuries seemed less severe in comparison to the others, but who knows.

• Considering the severity of Robin's injuries, it is likely that she was attacked by one of the Seraphims that Kaku fought with. Both Robin and Kaku have similar conditions.

• All the Seraphims were captured.

Currently, there is no proof that Zoro saved Robin, but based on these events, it is possible. The story may have gone differently to how I'm assuming it went. I’m just confused as to why such a significant portion of events were left unanswered, if it wasn’t intentional. Until then, it is just speculation, but this post is to express its likelihood. I suggest not taking this post too seriously, as it could end up being wrong.

Credit to @oto11252923 on twitter, their speculation made me curious! Also, thank you for taking the time to read this! :)

Fandom: Yatagarasu: The Raven Does Not Choose Its Master

Characters: Wakamiya/Nazukihiko/Crown Prince/Golden Raven/Kin’u, Yukiya, Hamayu/Sakura-hime/Sakura, mentions of Sumio, Lady Azusa, Lord Genya

Word count: 1090

—

“IF you want to die, then you can do that all by yourself. I will not stand here idle for your assassins to kill you.”

Yukiya then poised to leave the courtyard, nudged his horse, and flew away.

“We will meet again. I know it,” Wakamiya said shortly before the boy’s departure feeling so sure of himself.

“In your dreams, maybe. I am not planning to come back here at all,” the boy faced his master as if forgetting something. “Of course, everything will be different if you decide to give up your claim to the throne. Let your brother Lord Natsuka rule for they want him. Then I promise I will be yours forever… to serve you.”

Wakamiya’s breath hitched for a second.

Yukiya never thought of it much: the longer he stayed with his young master, the easier it was to love him.

But when he thought of the downside of serving Wakamiya, he never longed to be a part of a farce they called the imperial court with so many schemers wanting to get ahead of each other by stomping everyone’s feet.

Yet, deep inside, the Crown Prince only had to say the word and Yukiya would fold at once.

“I know it because I am a kin’u. One day I will ask for you and you will come back to me.”

Yukiya gaped at Wakamiya as if he grew horns over his head. He stood there not moving but focused his eyes on the prince. The whole time Sumio was only waiting for his cue after His Highness stopped him earlier from interrupting the boy’s tirade.

“I am saying this because I worry about you. I do not want you to die.” Pain etched on Yukiya’s face.

A kumquat flew in the air. Yukiya caught the candied fruit with his right hand and looked grumpily at his now former young master. Wakamiya in turn fixed his gaze on the boy longer than he had intended to do until he vanished from his sight. A final goodbye at the moment.

~~

“Sit down, Your Highness! You make me more than scared than I should be,” Hamayu poured sake on her cup and downed it at once eyeing at her husband.

Wakamiya circled the open hearth in the middle of the vast room of the study, unmoored, confused, and agitated. He should not have given his permission in the first place. Guards were watching the Sunrise Palace preventing him to leave. Even Sumio threatened to break his leg if he tried to escape from his chamber. There was a coup happening in the Northern Territory and His Serene Lord Genya and his entire family were in the middle of it. The rebels took hostage of his grandson, Lord Kiei, and his wife and their two children ages 4 and 7. Yukiya was rumoured to be imprisoned somewhere outside of the city when he, despite Wakamiya’s protestations, returned to visit his family in Taruhi then decided to join his grandfather’s force to quell the uprising. When Sumio came back to report what happened, he was devastated. He knew that it would come to this. Years ago, he had a premonition. Yukiya graduated at the top of the class from Keisoin Academy and there were plans to celebrate it at the palace, a special ceremony only for him. But as days and hours went by the idea of postponing it was imminent. The young man’s hardships began now.

“Would you let me suffer here too, Hamayu?” The Crown Prince asked his spouse, his face and no doubt, his heart, was in anguish as well. The Golden Raven was supposed to be above it all, but fear was a sickness of the heart.

She stared at him with her huge blue eyes that reminded him of the young man he should have welcomed in a few days but would not be able to. Sighing, she touched his thin, yet strong, shoulders. The Sakura-hime had not seen her husband so down that it broke her heart seeing him like this. He claimed that he did not have feelings, or that his love for all Yatagarasu was equal, but it was clear that as the soul of the youngest son of the head family, he had. And it was clear who his favourite was.

“Go ahead, Nazukihiko, I will manage it from here,” Hamayu squeezed his hands and kissed his lips signalling her assent.

That afternoon a handsome young lady was seen leaving the Sunrise Palace with her dainty feet as if she were floating then vanished into thin air.

~~

When Wakamiya found Yukiya, he was unconscious. The face bloodied and swollen from the beatings, the young man’s long reddish-brown hair laid out on the dirty ground was sticky both from trickles of blood and dust that accumulated from days of torture and non-washing. The prison was long abandoned, but the smell of fear and deprivation lingered in the air.

No doubt the Yamauchi army’s higher-ups interfering with the negotiations between the rebels and the camp from Lord Genya helped. It was a dispute that should not happen in the first place. Fate had it that the families from Taruhi Village were spared. Thank the mountain god.

In a separate building of the governor’s mansion Yukiya recuperated. Lady Azusa, his mother, was overjoyed and thanked the prince for the young man’s salvation.

~~

“Am I not disturbing you?” A familiar voice, albeit fuller, addressed Wakamiya catching him by surprise. “The Sakura and Sumio let me enter without fanfare. I hope it is all right. How long has it been? Three years?” There was still bandage on his head, but his body, now fully grown, remained intact. The young man’s crooked smile always got the prince every time, the mischief and the cunning when Yukiya first entered the service under him.

Nostalgia be damned.

“Yukiya!” Wakamiya stood there as if frozen, but his happiness was palpable.

Yukiya stepped toward him. Without saying a word, he went down to his knees, half-closed his eyes, bowed his head, and began to speak.

“Please welcome me again as your servant. I promise to serve you and Yamauchi with loyalty, respect, and love for all eternity until the day I breathe my last. I am ready.”

At the end of Yukiya’s speech, Wakamiya’s right hand hovered on the young man’s head then exhaled.

“I accept.”

And the course of the history of Yamauchi had changed forever with the Prince and his favourite vassal.

One Piece Episode 1094: Spoilers & Review - New Clothes, Old Foes, and a Shocking Reveal?

[a-reader-and-a-writer-for-all]

In Your Time of Need

Fandom: Top Gun, Top Gun: Maverick, Jake “Hangman” Seresin, f!reader

Summary: When you are hit with a crippling migraine, you just want the world to leave you alone. That is until your boyfriend comes home.

Word Count: 1090

TW: Angst, Fluff, Migraine, Hurt/Comfort, Jake is a great boyfriend

Note: Thank you to the anon who requested "reader is dating Hangman and has a terrible headache/migraine". I loved this idea and I hope you enjoy what I came up with!

You felt it coming on while you were driving home. It was just a small tingling at the back of your head and your vision seemed just slightly out of focus. However, it had happened enough times for you to know what that meant. Luckily, you weren’t too far from the apartment and were able to make it home safely before things got too bad.

It had been a few months since your last migraine and a small part of you had begun to hope that these episodes had finally just gone away. But as you started to climb out of the car and nearly toppled over as the world around you spun and you had to hold back the bile bubbling in your throat, it was clear your hopes were dashed. You just manage to stumble into the apartment, grab the wastebasket from out of the bathroom, change into your comfiest pajamas, turn off all the lights, and collapse into bed with the covers over your head before the migraine fully hits you. 

You didn’t know how long you lay there. It seemed simultaneously as though it had only been a few minutes yet also a lifetime. You only crawled out from your blanket cocoon twice but that was only to get sick in the wastebasket you had placed next to you. Otherwise, you remained perfectly still, trying not to move, to think, to even breathe, more than absolutely necessary in the hopes of quelling the pain that was splitting your head in two.

However, just as you thought things might be starting to take a turn for the better, you heard the front door slam open and several people charged in, laughing and chatting loudly. A low whine caught in your throat as you squeezed your eyes shut even tighter, but there was no way to escape the noise.

You could hear Jake chatting happily with several people and you vaguely remembered he mentioned he was having Coyote, OZ, Rambo, and Squid over for some beers after training today. You had been completely fine with it at the time, but right now you would give anything for them all to just go away.

Jake’s voice grew louder and you heard him say through the door, “– ust be home since her car’s outside. Let me just let her know we’re here and then I’ll grab the drinks.” The door to the bedroom swung open. “Hey, babe, I’m ho– oh.” 

All it took was one glance at you curled up in the fetal position under the covers with the wastebasket next to the bed for him to understand exactly what was going on. He had seen you suffer through these enough times before. 

You could just barely make out the sound of him creeping across the room, and the bed dipped slightly behind you as he quietly eased himself down onto it. Leaning over, he brushed his lips across the blanket, directly above your ear, and in a low, deep tone, asked, “How long?”

“Don’t know what time it is,” you managed to mumble without causing too much pain or nausea. “Started round three.”

“Oh, baby,” Jake said, his voice full of sorrow. “It’s almost seven now. You should have called me when it started.”

“No time. Hit fast.” You grunted softly, still buried beneath your pile of blankets. Suddenly, a loud burst of laughter comes from the other room causing you to whimper as you retreat farther into your dark, quiet space.

Jake sighed and you felt the bed shift again as he stood up. He placed his hand on your shoulder so lightly you barely felt it and he whispered, “I’ll be right back.”

He crossed the room once more and quietly snuck out the door. However, in his attempt to remain silent, he didn’t notice the door was not completely closed. But you did. The torturous sounds from the living room were even louder and you tried to curl tighter within yourself to escape the noise.

Then you heard Jake quietly say, “Hey, she’s pretty sick right now. I think you guys should just go.”

Someone – you thought it was OZ – groaned and loudly cried, “Aw, come on man. We had the whole night planned! You’re really so whipped you’d kick us out because your girlfriend’s got a little tummy ache?”

“Yeah, I am.” Jake’s voice was cold and dark. You had only ever heard him sound like that a few times and you could almost see the fury etched on his handsome face. “Now get the fuck out of my apartment before I throw you out.”

There was some cursing and grumbling, but it seemed like they were leaving. Apparently, you weren’t the only one intimidated by that side of Jake. Once the noise had blissfully lessened, you realized one person was still in the other room with Jake. In a smooth, low whisper, Coyote said, “Hey, I’m sorry about that. Those guys are dicks. ‘Course your girls gotta come first. Do you need anything or is there anything I can do?”

The smile had returned to Jake’s voice as he said, “Nah. Unfortunately, there’s not a lot anyone can do. She just needs some rest and quiet. But thanks for the offer and for understanding.”

“Yeah, of course.” It sounded like Coyote slapped Jake on the back. “And hey, let me know when she’s feeling better and I’ll bring you guys something.”

“Thanks, man. I will.” The front door closed as Coyote left and you heard Jake reenter the room seconds later.

As he sat back on the side of the bed, you whispered into the darkness. “You didn’t have to do that.”

“Yeah, I did. I wasn’t gonna leave you in here all alone while those jackasses went wild. Now, what can I do?”

“You’ve done enough.” But then, you reconsidered. “Actually, can you just lay here with me? Not touching, just close so I know you’re here?”

“Of course, baby. Whatever you need.”

Despite what you had just said, as Jake settled down in the bed, you inched backward until your blanketed back was just brushing against his chest. It was a faint enough point of contact that it didn’t bother your oversensitive system, yet it sent a wave of pleasure and comfort through you to feel him with you. You'll never understand what you did to deserve someone who loved and cared for you as much as Jake did, but you thank the universe every day that he came into your life.
