From the last post. Once LQ interacts with Shen actively she will be good at subverting the laws established I would imagine.Yet she could not defy the Law of Earth, anymore than any infant could defy the Law of their mother. But what parent did not know the mischief which a child could get up to, before the Law could be enforced?
Now to the actual post.
Correction: longBorne on the four winds, the thief burst forth, and the log neglected gates boomed open and shattered upon the walls, scattering their riches back into the earth.
I like the prose though.
The idea to invoke seasonal change in LQs Domain gains traction in my mind. Does it in yours?West Wind Step: B rank
Duration: Immediate
From the warm west wind comes spring and summer, heralding spring, and in it's recession is the coming of fall and winter. Predictable in a way that the other winds are not, nonetheless it was the last to be captured. The west wind comes and goes, and naught may halt or capture it again. A single attack of equal rank or lower may be avoided, no matter how unerring the aim, as the user scatters, rematerializing with Far range of their current position. When retreating through this method, the user of the canceled technique receives C rank cold damage as they are lashed by the winds of encroaching winter.
Alternatively, the user may instead activate this technique to advance up to Far distance, avoiding all effects of the interposing space. Up to ten allies within close range of the desperation receive a significant bonus to Physical and Spiritual avoid, and reduce the damage of all incoming effects by one rank until the users next turn.
LQ is laughing? She is laughing!
For she was not the girl any longer. She was the Thief of Winds, and she had changed the Law of Heaven forevermore.
The cool night air struck Ling Qi like a flung glass of water, and she blinked as she looked up at the clear night sky and the twinkling stars. The wind tugged at her gown and hair as she fell from from the apex of her leap, some thirty meters in the air.
She fell, and Ling Qi smiled as she took hold of the wind, and shot off to the east, sending the canopy of the trees rustling in her wake. She spun, she flew, she danced in midair, and she could not restrain her laughter at the sheer joy of her movement. A second and a third time she guided the wind, until at last she had to allow her foot to lightly touch the top of a hill and grant her new momentum.
Note: Mythical Arts literally elt you become the Person with that mindset. You think subconsciously you are the Wind Thief.
scattering and startling the dreamweaving spiders in her wake, untouched by their threads.
I know that reference! So LQ is geographically near Zequings mountain.
This is where LQ gathered the acorns, isn´t it? Does the petal falling and the horned skull shifting Sound ominous to anyone else? The horned Lord was the sublime ancestor of the Weilu, Right? Does this indicate becoming more like the Old Weilu or am I reading too much into it?And somewhere, far under the earth, behind a maze of broken space, an ancient corpse's horned skull shifted, and black flower petals drifted to the carpet of bones at its feet.
Note broken space: IS this an obious break between the liminal and the real?
Ling Qi blew out a breath and smiled as she strode down the hall to her bedroom. She would handle them all. She was going to succeed. She would not accept any other outcome.
Self-Assurance she has. I like it! It makes introspection so much easier!
Her dress was pooled in the corner of the wardrobe, it's layers in disarray, sleeves wrapped around a bundle of fabric that she recognized as the tatters of her bedspread. She reached down, picking up her dress, and the ragged cloth dropped away, but a few threads still dangled from her gown, slowly being drawn into its fabric.
...Had her dress been stress eating, Ling Qi thought in bewilderment.
One might say the dreams of muses became real in their own way!
Alert! LQ is able to make jokes! It is great!"Do you have to say it like that?" Ling Qi complained. It made her sound like she was incontinent or something.
"Not my fault you're still a bag of meat and fluids," Sixiang teased, sticking out their tongue. "Don't worry, you're solving that too."
Ling Qi rolled her eyes, and Sixiang yelped as a gust of wind sent them scattering into multihued particulates.
"Hey! My projection is still fragile you know!" they complained, voice echoing from near her ear.
"Not my fault that you're a bag of bad humor and dream gunk," Ling Qi replied dryly.
"Hmph, you've gotten mean," Sixiang grumbled, spinning a new face from moonlight and wind. "I'm funny."
"Sure you are," Ling Qi said with amused condescension.
disorient an emey right before striking by making them forget her position.
Correction: enemy
No, memory was not always reliable at all, even before considering arts like this. Indeed, false memory could supplant reality, easily enough, if one's actions were guided by it.
PR/Intrigue Position is a go?! I do not think it meshes with LQ...
