    Summary

    500 years ago the stage for war was set with the fall of the nation of Khaenri'ah. A nation without a god. That was the last time the Archons worked together, the last time they would be seen in the same area without being set on killing each other, and the last time any of them would leave their small nations. From then on Archons only gave visions to those who lived within their borders. This starkly divided the nations...

    Or...

    Cyno, a General of Inazuma and Tighnari, lead forest watcher of the Avidya Forest meet by chance... Cyno is badly injured and Tighnari is the one to help him. You can guess what happens next.

    Summary

    The Temple of Silence has two vessels of Hermanubis - a miracle in and of itself. But one has blood of gold and the other’s is that of the dirtiest filth of society. Cyno has always known this, since the day the scales of the cursed sprouted across his skin. Yet when Sethos nearly dies while trying to access the spirit of their lord, instinct makes Cyno save the life and steal the purpose of the younger. Now with a terrible secret, Cyno leaves the Temple of Silence with Professor Cyrus and a terrible, terrible power.

    How much longer must he live - and die - like this?

    Summary

    “Araby is celebrating his birthday.”
    Tighnari repeated.
    “And he wants to invite you.”

    Cyno stayed silent for a few moments like he was pondering something, Tighnari knew that expression, though. He had a question, one that he wasn’t sure if he should ask.
    He didn’t encourage him, he simply turned on his heels and waited.

    “Celebrate his birthday.. Why?”

    Summary

    Once, Cyno described his madness as ‘a kind of living nightmare’. It was one of the few times he ever willingly spoke about his condition. Normally he prefers to pretend that it does not exist, which does little to aid their research - but they would not dare to force him. The higher-ups were clear - whatever Cyno says, goes, including refusals to cooperate.

     

    (He is our only potential connection to Irminsul. Even in his madness, he knows things we do not.)

    Or: The Akademiya forces Cyno to be exposed to divine knowledge, to get him out of the way. The Temple of Silence, and eventually Tighnari, picks up the pieces as best they can.

    Summary

    “You are becoming troublesome,” says a voice, as Cyno fights and kicks and struggles uselessly. “I believe it is time you were dismissed from your post. We can’t have you knowing too much, and so it is better that you know nothing at all, ever again.”

    The capsule - forbidden knowledge, divine knowledge - is brought closer. His akasha terminal, reflexively, connects, and it’s like a shock through Cyno’s system, like a bolt of electricity through his neural passageways, like torture.

    “It’s such a shame,” the voice says, “that greedy desert dwellers always try to reach above their station. Isn’t it?”

    Summary

    Someone is following him.

    Cyno has been aware of it for the past few days. One does not become the hunter without gaining an instinct for when they’re being hunted, too. His footsteps have been steadily dogged since he left Caravan Ribat, someone hovering on the outskirts of his awareness, trying to remain unnoticed and just barely failing.

    To tell the truth, it’s the barely that concerns Cyno. He’s the best for a reason. There should be no barely. Whoever this person is, they’re either smart or they know him entirely too well. Perhaps both.

    (Or maybe, just maybe, he’s starting to slip)

    Summary

    Cyno has had a reoccurring dream the past few days. It's the same thing over and over, but whenever he does something different to change the outcome of his decisions, it always ends the same.

    Tighnari. Dying in his arms. Taking his last, painful breath full of agony and emotion. He would always be gone within 5-10 minutes. And when he finally gave up on fighting for his life, his skin turned as pale as a fresh sheet of snow. Peaceful. Tranquil. Unbothered.  Unperturbed. But when he passed, he could  also see the life spilling out of his best friend.

     

    OR

    Cyno keeps having nightmares about Tighnari dying and the two need to learn how to trust one another to not die in a life or death situation.

    Summary

    'He was glad to finally return to his lover, nevertheless, he was greeted with such a situation that he did not know how to deal with. Blood sank into his lover’s clothes, the wooden floor being stained like a crime scene.'
