[Shatter the Circle] Nexus 1:0 - Invocation & Invitation of Fates Intertwined

The Sun traces its last steps across the sky, sinking beyond the few, high, graceful towers lost from another age. Inside, the high accountants of the Guild stopper their ink, waft dry the last contracts of the day; the Merchant Princes have left already to conduct the evening's wining and dining of Creation's most powerful beings. In the next tower over, across the district, the flapping of robes is the only sound to mark the Emissary's passing.


The waning light plays across the carved surfaces, caressing them, a last lingering gaze before slipping under the festering muck of the Yanaze, recipient of the wash of two great rivers and everything Nexus cares to toss away.


And in Nexus, anything that doesn't make two silver to rub together is refuse and rubbish.

In the sultry, sweltering air of Fire, it's six of one and half dozen whether one is smelling or drinking the reek of the Great Rivers of sewage, tailings, flotsom, and rotting flesh. And tar. That tar is on the air means the wind is from the south, from the dry-dock shipyard - Nexus is more known for trade and industry, but what good is trade without transport?


"Sunset" was hours ago, here in the crack between districts - the steep hills upon which the best Nexus preens effectively puts the flood-prone flats into shadow excepting high noon. And if the buildings didn't cast direct shadows, the wilting ash and withering soot, the hanging particulates sifting down from where they are thrown high from the furnaces of Nighthammer - distort and distend the Sun's visage into a throbbing, angry, reddened thing, while Luna is a wavering sickly orange fruit, unnaturally rotted in prime.


In the wet heat, one can practically see the air one breathes, and the air seems to stick to flesh, cling in the lungs.


And yet, commerce thrives, as do the rats, the cockroaches - and people.

The streets have a moment of lull, between the last whistle, and the lighting of the meager lamps signaling the night shift, and all that entails.


In any other city, in any other district, this would be that last quiet of Happy Hour, before the wretches flood in to drown their sorrows.


Here - it's simply Opening Hours, and the discount is slight, because the prices haven't much lower they can dive.


The man who pushes open the flimsy swinging doors of the Mud-Lark's Nest is not a dock-worker, nor a bellows pump-man, and seems a tad too openly armed to be a member of local "insurance" men. The few locals take a slow, half-eyed look, then get back to the serious business of forgetting.


A mercenary, perhaps? From some company that's new and doesn't know the districts, or hard luck to be in this neighborhood - and yet, a subtle uneasiness slowly washes through; the fellow is...too self-assured. Best to drink harder. That's the solution to most things, after all.


What catches the man's attention is a fellow who seemed not to glance round at all - and on a closer look, sports robes a tad too clean, too well-made, to belong. This fellow sits at the edge of where the door's feeble light extends, just where the grimy lamp-lights fail - and watches what must be the proprietress, sitting on the edge of a tawdry stage, interviewing a hopeful prospect of uncertain gender.


"Beggin' your kindness, m'lady," the wretch says. "Anything yous wants me ta do, I'm willin'!"


The madam, a portly woman of the ripe age (for these parts) of forty, eyes the skeletal figure. "Yew ain't got but scraps and tendons holdin' ya together! 'ho's gonna fancy yew?"


"Anything, anything," the figure says, wringing hands. "Anything t'all!"


"Turn 'bout," the madam says, waving a hand with gaudy paste jewel'd rings, dubious expression as she speaks. "T'ain't no charity here, got ta see if anyone'd find ya 'ppealing."


From the hips, from the jaw-line, judges a female specimen. Hands on fatty hips, "Well. Maybes. More stick'n spit than flesh, but,"


A slight stench of rot and pus wafts past.


"Ah! Wha' yew hidin'!" A swift pull by the madam, and the woman - strike that, a girl on the cusp of puberty, cries out, limps. The madam deftly lifts the rags with a cane, and grimaces; a open sore leaks down the girl's leg, the flesh cracked and blackening.


"Please!" the girl cries. "Anything! Anything at all!"

Misuro, you've just entered. Sol, you're sitting watching. You're both crazy in Awareness and Perception, and thus are so badass you pick all this up from each other right away. (And neither of you is stealthy or larcenous-like.)


Why are you here?


There are rumors of the lady in silver dress, of the Wolf. Of plagues. And the Mud-Lark's Nest is rumored to be a place where one can find those willing to hide, smuggle, or otherwise transport those "too well known".


Misuro is borderline "too well known". Sol is as well, but from inside Nexus, as opposed to Misuro who's troubles stem from outside Nexus.


Feel free to have some other reason you're in one of the worst neighborhoods of Nexus, in a madam's house.


Where is the Wolf? Only Crazy Ivan knows -- place yourself as you like in the scene, Crazy Ivan.
 
The man watching the little drama unfold at the edge of the stage looks to be in his late twenties, standing tall, straight of limb, his hair slicked back and his skin remarkably free of the yellowish cast that many low-lying natives have from "Nexus snow" and other byproducts of the city's industry. He's dressed in a beat-up duster with the sleeves rolled up; it looks to have been painstakingly hand-made, if the embroidered pattern adorning it is any indication.


He's drinking clean water from a clean glass, a rarity in this part of town and one he's paid well for. The glass goes back on the table, still half-full, as he rises from his seat and approaches the bony girl, his eyes wandering her body with no lascivity, only a calm detachment that examines the mortification of her flesh for the signs of its origin. Still focused on the girl, he speaks to the madam - "Let me handle her."


Then, to the girl herself, "Come sit with me a spell, miss. I have water and some coin for you if you'll talk to me for a while."


Assuming she takes a seat by his table, he'll go on to question her as he lays out three obols on the table between them. "Now, what's your name, and where'd you get that Saturn's kiss from?" he asks, indicating the sore on her leg. "Where've you been recently, and why're you so desperate for the coin that you'd go out looking for work in a state like this?"

Sol is going to fire up a few Charms out of Personal Essence: Judge's Ear Technique, for lie detectoring. Sagacious Reading of Intent, on the girl's answer to the last question. And Mastery of Small Manners, for general politeness and to instantly discern the motives of everyone significant present in the scene. He's also going to make an Intelligence + Medicine roll to try and diagnose the girl's leg, possibly aided by her testimony. The inducement for her is a place to sit, a cool drink, and some cash.
 
She wakes, as she has taken to doing, at sunset. A tight bundle of fur huddled in the shadowed depths of some abandoned warehouse, in a den between rotting crates and the discarded aspirations of some forgotten merchant. She shared the space with a rat for awhile, until it met it's death between her jaws, more out of annoyance than hunger. The surrounds don't particularly trouble her, she has slept in worse places - wind-swept vistas of rocks and ice sharp as razors. Gilded palaces splashed with gore, their floors an inch deep in blood.


Arching her back, she emerges into the sullen moonlight and pads through the streets of Nexus, heedless to those around her - fleeting, ephemeral things, whose lives are already short, and are clever enough to realize how much shorter they will be if they cross the path of the massive, white wolf that wanders the street.


Until a cry reaches her ears, one heartbreakingly familiar, even after centuries. A young woman, bargaining away what she does not truly know, the smell of blood and pus, the sound of hopelessness...


The Wolf nudges the doors of the miserable little establishment aside with heavily muscles shoulders, and if the man still standing in the entry doesn't look like he belongs, she looks it even less. She pads over to the girl, her stance unmistakably protective as she regards the man who was talking to her, canine eyes holding an unusual glint of intelligence.
 
If Sol is shocked at the entrance of The Wolf, he doesn't show it. He is, however, rather surprised to see a huge wolf like that here; in the less savory parts of town, any big animal would be shortly renamed "lunch" after the attentions of hungry urchins.


However, the Wolf doesn't seem to be just any big animal. It seems to be looking at the girl, and then at him. And its eyes sparkle with... sapience?


Sol's no expert with dealing with animals, but he's not the sort who kicks them away for laughs. It's just as well that the Wolf showed up; he's ordered some of the local fowl for dinner, and while he was planning to give half of it to the starving girl, perhaps splitting it three ways would keep it from going wild inside and hurting someone. Mainly the girl seated opposite him - she looked like she'd have trouble moving.


"Well, hello," he smiles. He quickly dissects a hunk of meat from the chicken carcass and offers it by hand to the beast. "There you go, eat up and be a good boy."
 
Misuro resisted the urge to grit his teeth at the spectacle with the girl. He had hoped that he would be able to find a quiet place to drink in peace in this out of the way spot (disreputable though it may be), but it seemed that ever since his had been Chosen, trouble seemed drawn to him like a moth to a flame. Thankfully, he was saved from having to intervene personally when the fellow with the robes stepped in.


Misuro was about to go back to his drink, maybe order another one and be on his way, when a freaking wolf showed up out of nowhere, barging in like it owned the place. Putting his hand on his blade, Misuro tensed for potential violence. Be it God or Chosen, the wolf was bound to bring trouble.
 
The wolf gives Sol an even expression for a moment, looking down at the meat and snorting slightly in what sounds for all the world like derision before tossing her head toward the skinny little thing with the wounded leg. Still looking protective, the large white predator settles down by the girl's feet.
 
As Sol speaks to the girl, she shrinks away slightly, but this is the life she's resigned herself to, and as long as he doesn't beat her too bad, then the coin is worth it. Right? A glance and a gulp at the madam, who in her turn stares at Sol for a moment, befuddled, then shrugs, yells to the barkeep to get water and another glass, whatever the gentleman likes. The unvoiced addendum being "as long as he pays up front", of course.


At Sol's questions, the girl bits her lip and doesn't answer - her utter poverty, the way she eyes the food, the exposure evident on her legs, arms, back of the neck. She reeks, although so does most of Nexus.


Before he can follow up, there appears the wolf, between him and the girl.


There is a moment - rather a long one - as everyone in the saloon turns and stares.


Then chaos, of a strange quiet sort. The madam has jumped up on the stage, backs slowly away. The patrons are stood, grabbed chairs and put them between them and the beast. The more sober ones, that is; a stumbling drunken fellow coos, holding out his ale-mug for the wolf, "What a dog! Good dog, good dog! Com'ere, com'ere! 'Ave a drink! Nar Naz will ne'er bother me again, not with you by my side!"


Which prompts a slow, careful drawing of blades, even as the fellow stumbles on - some with a calculating look, wondering if the pelt or the captured animal is worth more, others backing away with blade and make-shift club towards the door.


The girl has stopped breathing, and looks like she will fall over at any moment.


Sol makes his peace offering, and the drunken man shouts, "No! I saw the dog first!"


But when the wolf settles by the girl's feet -- that's when the madam shrieks "She's a witch! Run!" and flees towards the back, when the men start stampeding for the exit, the barkeep throws a few charms from behind the counter and with shaking hands pours libation after libation on the small altar and into bowl after bowl for this fearsome spirit.


The girl claws her way up onto a table, terrified beyond sounds, and leaps for the stage, crashing badly, pulling herself to stagger away. Her wound cracks and bleeds, but she is far beyond noticing.
 
The wolf regards this all with faint amusement, and if there is any menace in the blades being drawn, it certainly seems to be ignoring them.


Then all Hell breaks loose, largely her own fault. Such things can't be helped she supposes - though this little incident does remind her her of why she keeps to herself, and dwells so oft in the wild. She follows the stumbling girl, and for a moment she'll feel a gentle hand on her shoulder, stilling her thrashing movements, and a whisper of soft encouragement, telling her she is safe, before it is gone again.


Chaos trailing in its wake, the wolf pads back off into the night, though the girl finds several coins - more than she could hope to earn in the "trade" she has found herself in over the span of a week - resting in the palm of her hand.

Dramatic license to use the super-fast shifting charm to go back and forth. Anyone looking right at her would see, well, Cate Blanchett in a silver dress kneeling over the girl for a brief instant.
 
Misuro couldn't help himself. As the entirety of the place emptied in a panic, he burst out laughing at the spectacle of it all. Leaning across the bar and helping himself to some of the more expensive drinks for free, he gave the wolf a toast before sitting back down and enjoying the drink. "Cheers, doggy." As an act of charity, he poured a bowl of the classier booze for the wolf to drink. "You might as well stick around, now that we more or less have the place to ourselves." He said, before turning his attention to the girl. "You you seem to have found yourself a new pet, kiddo."

Tough crowd, Sol shrugs as he devours the morsel. The recycled oil it's been cooked in is old and steeped in spices and flavor; it tells its own story in gustatorial form, to the point where a connoisseur could identify a restaurant by the mere taste and smell of its food.

The Solar rolls his eyes at this. He wasn't going to touch the Wolf or anything, but he hoped that the beast would have more sense than to hook up with someone offering fermented barley and the promise of a rump to gnaw.


Then the madness starts; with practiced ease, he mobilizes the Essence within himself, sending it into patterns of energization and empowerment; beginning with the Monkey Leap Technique; though he stops himself just short of initiating the Solar Hero Form; it's a blatant display of power and he's not into that. At least, not right now.


He's not sure if the wolf belongs to that mercenary-type, but Sol's attention is on the girl. Her activity's opened the sore, and he's got the feeling that it's abuse like this which makes it worse all the time. He feels a little daft with his battle-form on, and hastily dismisses it as he approaches the girl to help her up.


"Look. You're hurt. I can help you out, but you're going to have to trust me. Can you trust me?"


While he's waiting for an answer, he turns to the mercenary: "You do know it's bad luck to drink the offerings set out for a god, right? Assuming that wolf even was a god..."

"Most gods I've encountered either ignore the offerings made to them or just don't deserve them." Said Misuro, uncaring that his casual blasphemy could cause more trouble. He then grabbed one of the bottles and tossed it to Sol. "Here, use this to treat the wounds. Bad booze should be put to a better use than drinking."
 
Sol catches the bottle, then smiles to the man.


"That's stuff best used for drinking, friend. You'd need some really strong alcohol to deal with a sore like that. It's infected - and pretty badly too. Just guess why."


He holds up his hands, indicating Nexus around them.


"Still, it beats dirty water for rinsing. And if a good, stiff drink takes the edge off the pain - and there will be pain, healing always hurts - then maybe it'll have a good use after all. By the way, my name's Solomon. Is that wolf a friend of yours?"

Once the wolf is gone, the girl clenches her fist 'round the coins, and starts to sob.


"Doggy!" the drunk howls, and give Sol an evil glare. "You! I've got ta chase it now - tha's me luck, t'is right!" And hobbles out the doors, making for the ally as fast as he can.


Misuro finds that "the most expensive" in this hole is not even what the lowest dive serves in Lookshy, and that's saying something; soldiers drink anything. This stuff, and a pinch of firedust, will definitely keep a few of the nastier disease spirits away - at least when imbibed. The disease spirits won't volunteeraly go near the stuff themselves, or so goes the scuttlebutt.


The barkeep eyes Misuro's appropriated drink, and Misuro can see the man's mind shift gears from thinking of calling for coin to gingerly waiting for him to finish, then takes the bottle and pours himself a shot, too. "On the House," he croaks. "Never be missed with the rest of it."


Pours it back in one smooth motion, wipes his mouth, eyes watering. "Nar Naz is going to hide us all for this. No way we can make protection this week, now." He eyes the bottle like finishing it might ease his burden - or kill him, and that's much the same.

"Most gods I've encountered either ignore the offerings made to them or just don't deserve them."
The barkeep makes hasty signs, pours more libations over the small altar, and shakes his head, pouring himself another shot. "Shouldn't say those things," he mutters. "They listen. They'll have their proper share, and else they'll know. Look," he gestures towards the altar. "One of every twenty-five is the gods'." And Misuro can see the small flecks of silver settling once more at the bottom of the moat of alcohol, when he looks. Shaved coins; anywhere else but the pits of Nexus, and such an offense would being a hanging one. Rulers take it fiercely personal when coins with their images are shaved.


Here - it's a princely offering.


The barkeep pretends not to notice when Misuro tosses the bottle, but says, "Why ye getting so upset over the guttersnipe? She really a witch?"

Small interjections between your interactions. The girl will take a bit more dedicated effort - she's functionally collapsed at her wits' end. The drunk won't find the Wolf unless the Wolf lets him. The barkeep is consumed with despair, and has pretty much gone 'fuck it' although he has a few reservations left. Continue on!

"You make your own luck, pal," Sol says to the drunk's retreating back. "Best get working."

Once the wolf is gone, the girl clenches her fist 'round the coins, and starts to sob.
The Solar's not quite sure how to handle this. He settles for a comforting hand on the shoulder, assuming she doesn't throw it off and run away screaming. Perhaps she'd calm down eventually and realize that he wasn't about to hurt/eat her, and perhaps not. But either way, he doubted words would help right now.


Besides, there were other people to talk to.

The barkeep pretends not to notice when Misuro tosses the bottle, but says, "Why ye getting so upset over the guttersnipe? She really a witch?"
"Beats me. But from where I'm looking, she's really a girl, and really hungry, and really looking for a job. If she were a witch, don't you think she could do better? Seems to me the first thing I'd do with real magic at my disposal would be to make myself big and handsome, then go plaster myself in girls and jade. 'Least, that seems to be how it works for the merchant princes and other fatcats in this city."

Pours it back in one smooth motion, wipes his mouth, eyes watering. "Nar Naz is going to hide us all for this. No way we can make protection this week, now." He eyes the bottle like finishing it might ease his burden - or kill him, and that's much the same.
"That name came up earlier, from that dog-"


He corrects himself. That beast was no mere mutt.


"-that wolf-chasing lush. I don't come by this part of the city much - who's this Nar Naz character?"

Should I roll Investigate for this?
 
Mud-Lark's Nest -


"Nar Naz?"


The barkeep shakily sets the bowls of libation onto the bar just before the altar, somehow not spilling a drop. The fourth he sets on top of the other three, forming a tiny pyramid. In this top bowl, he sets a small floating wax'n'bone statuette, lights the alcohol on fire, which begins to melt the charm into the mix.


Mops up the bar, half from habit, half out of respect to keep the place of worship clean.


Makes another sign of warding.


In a quiet voice, such that Sol has to strain, while Misuro stands easy, watching the girl quiet down by Sol - "He's the Protector of these streets,", the barkeep says, beginning to wipe down a few grimy clay cups. "Rightfully protecting business," he says, voice louder, meant to be heard by the walls, as it were. "He squeezes continuous, just enough to keep us in business without, uh, cutting into the force of men he hires to protect us." Bites his lip. "Won't have enough coin to cover this week, not after this," gestures to the empty saloon, chairs overturned, spilled drinks dripping onto the floor.


Suddenly pours another shot, downs it immediately. His voice trembles. "Gonna lose my leg for this."


Sol: < All his words ring true >



The Wolf -


It's impossible not to hear the wailings of the drunk one.


"Oh, most perfect of all faithful bitches! Most white and unsullied by the filth, of teeth swifter than rats, jaws greater than the grasping cargo cranes! Come back, come back to me! Herquin the Unfortunate will be the Blessed with you by my side!"


A moment later, the wailing rises yet higher - "WHAT DO I NEED TO DO TO APPEASE YOU?!?"


If only the smells were as easy to ignore. Instead, they crawl into nostrils, and stab into the brain - fetid sweet stink of sickness, acrid piss, clinging heated tar, and the horrible soot drifting down from the incessant forges. The most insidious is the soot - it coats and covers, hiding the other scents. It, along with natural adaption, dulls the sense of smell, and this is the true horror; a predator with deadened senses is prey.


Sludge cakes paws, a mushy surface leaving prints, overwhelming smells, horrible to push off against into a run, sucking back against movement. There is no clean water with which to wash the sludge free, and every instinct screams poison at the idea of licking paws clean during a rest.


To say nothing of the fleas, ticks, and every other parasitic vermin attempting to latch on for a free lunch.


Rats. Cockroaches. Insects, mice, vermin - instinct screams such lesser forms not only survive, but thrive. Shed skin and form, adapt. At least the stink won't be physically painful.


Every night, this pantomime is harder to maintain.


Why? Why are you here?
 
"I know tbe arrangement," Sol nods. It's a sadly common one; the strong rule and the weak can but suffer. What he wants to know, however, are the details.


"So he protects you, like a lord, and you offer tribute, like a good vassal," he muses. "So - how does he protect you? Whence spring his knights and footmen? You say you'll lose your leg... does he exact his payment in flesh where the supply of cash fails?"
 
"I'm guessing that Nar Naz doesn't protect you from others so much as he protects you from himself." Said Misuro, being familiar with the principles of a protection racket.

The barkeep eyes the two men uneasily. "Like any other neighborhood boss," he says, pouring another shot. Slams it, wipes his mouth. "Gonna make an example of me, for what 'appens when you're late with payments. 'Don't need both legs to pour drinks,' 'e'll say."
 
Misuro caught the bottle and took a swig, before he tossed it in turn to the barkeep for him to drink. He probably needed one, at this point. "When will Nar Naz stop by next? I might be able to convince him to be reasonable."
 
"I suppose it's the least I could do given the mess that wolf left behind," Sol nods. Then he looks to Misuro. "I take it we'll be joining forces on this? We don't have to, but if our goals are aligned, it seems wiser to pursue them in unison rather than separately."
 
While Misuro was fairly certain that he could handle this on his own, what with him being the ultimate warrior chosen by the Most High, only a fool turned down backup when freely given. "Sounds good to me. A united front of more than one person could add weight to our side of the conversation."
 
The barkeep nearly fumbles the bottle.


"Yew're crazy!" He stares at Misuro, then Sol, then back to Misuro. Backs away, making a sign to ward off danger. "Gods help me, Nar Naz will think I'm bringin' you in! He'll kill me! Slowly!"


Shakes his head, opens his mouth, shuts it, opens it again.


"He's got all the docks men under his thumb! His men'll pound you, break your bones for sport - and then Nar Naz will turn you over to his specialist! The specialist," he whimpers. "'e'll keep you alive. For months."


Voice drops to a hoarse whisper. "An' when you die - then yew'll crawl to his beck'n'call. Even ghosts fear 'em!"

"I won't tell if you don't," Sol deadpans. Man was afraid, but you couldn't blame him for that. He's never had power, and all he can see is how those who have it, can use it to hurt him.

Shakes his head, opens his mouth, shuts it, opens it again.

"Sounds like necromancy," Sol muses. "Yes, this Nar Naz fellow sounds very interesting indeed... he's got an organization and some kind of torturer - a magical torturer, by all accounts - on his side. Personally, I'd like to do a bit of legwork before we make our move. I think I know how to deal with him, but it's the fallout I'm worried about. It's like countries at war - the smallfolk always foot the bills for the big men's brawls."


On a whim, he glances to the girl, wondering if she's calmed down yet.
 
The girl is clenching her fist 'round the coin, and crawling towards the back stage.


Exit stage left, as it were.
