When Colour Left The Void

Summary:

Ole has been born into the Void, closer to the Upper Limit than any Sister before. But no Brother has ascended to care for her. While both the Brothers and the Sisters ponder the fate of their newest arrival, Colour has his own intentions.

Chapter Text

Do you feel it Sisters? Do you feel… her?

Our new little Sister, it’s been a while since we’ve had one.

Another babe for the cradle. I’m beginning to feel quite ancient.

You are ancient Ire, it’s a wonder you can still speak to us.

Hush Ava, we must make her welcome.

Has she spoken yet? Does anyone know her voice?

Can you hear us little one? What is your name?

What is your name?

…
...
...

It seems she cannot speak.

Be patient Sisters, we all know what it was like. Give her time.

Uta is right. She’ll speak soon enough, though perhaps Colour can tell us more in the meantime.

What Colour will speak to her?

Let her discover that on her own, as we did.

….

But where is her Brother?

Notes:

Hey everybody, so this is the first time I'm posting anything on here so excuse me if there are some oddities as I figure out how everything works. I hope you all have a fun read.

I'm well aware there isn't much fanfiction for this game (or at least nothing I could find in English, I did find a couple of pieces in Russian - thank you Google Translate) and that it's a bit of an odd one to write for in the first place. But after experiencing the game through second hand sources (mostly CannibalK9's amazing let's play that you should definitely check out, as well as The Beginner's Guide to The Void) and finally getting the nerve to play it myself, I'm finding quite a few ideas have been coming into my head and just felt compelled to start writing. There's a lot of different things I'll be drawing on for inspiration; artwork, reviews, theories, canon details and my own personal headcanons. I will try to link to everything I draw from as much as possible (though those links may be get added after each chapter has been posted - tags and rating may also change, I'm not sure what this will end up as yet) There will be a big focus on character interaction, main ones will probably be Yani and Warden (for reasons that will become clear) but I will try and give each Sister and Brother a decent amount of dialogue (and I will try and show at least one interaction for each pair).

P.S. The next chapter will not be anywhere near as short as this one, I just have a thing about starting stories off short and a little vague.
