certified coolkid moment: finding the rotting corpse of your classmate in the woods
Lucy Frostblade found Ankarna’s name. She learned of Ruvina’s sister and wanted to help her. Kristen just brought Cassandra back. She heard about the return of Cassandra. If Kristen Applebees, renowned mess of a cleric, could do it, why couldn’t she?
One night, Kipperlily finds Lucy bringing the rats back, with the rest of the Hi-5 heroes. And she confronts her cleric about what she’s doing, reminding Lucy they aren’t the Bad Kids. They don’t risk each others lives and put each other in danger. They stay *safe* by being cautious. The two argue.
Ruben and Oisin admire Lucy’s conviction. Mary-Ann tries to get them to stop. Ivy defends Kipperlily’s desire to keep the group safe. It’s not fair. KLCK brought her friends into it. It’s not fair. She forged a withdrawal of the God Change on Lucy’s behalf. Lucy strikes Kipperlily, hard enough to draw blood. Unknown to her, emboldened by Ankarna, Lucy draws on the Rage she feels to her party. She unintentionally drags her friends into the bloodlust. What happens is she desperately fights against her party. It never should have went this far.
At the end, Kipperlily and the others stand over Lucy’s body. Realizing what they’ve done, the bloodlust fading as Ankarna has protected her infernal form. And Ankarna uses this to make an offer. “I will give her back, when you bring me back.”
They all argue but Kipperlily convinces them all to go home and sleep on it. She’s careful. She hides the body, using all her rogue skills to cover up the crime. No one would believe them. And she remembers something she learned in Rogue Class. Devil’s Nectar. It’s her fault after all. Why force the rest of the party to bear this burden?
So when they next meet, with the help of Devil’s Nectar, she lies through her teeth. “We didn’t do anything. It’s unfair.” And she does it everytime they talk. The sickly sweet nectar, it almost burns at this point, to take. Its viscous drip down her throat is almost suffocating.
“The school should do more, we should try to change things. It’s not fair that Lucy is dead.” Kipperlily thinks, unaware that she has begun to believe her own lies. As she looks on, during the first day of Junior Year, she sees the Bad Kids. Fresh off their adventure with the Night Yorb. They must have it so easy. Kipperlily clenches her fist, and sets out to do what she promised, choosing to spare her friends from the burden of bringing a dead god back to life.
... they might be able to bring lucy back. she won't just be a peice of the narrative, she could come back and get to grow up and worship her god and be a kid and just. they are running out of time but they might be able to save her.
thinking about freshman year high 5 heroes. how did you come together. how did you decide on your name. what changed. what happened. what have you done
Clerics of Spyre ✨️❄️☀️🌙
SHOUT OUT TO THE CLERICS WHO’VE DIED
WHO’S GONNA HEAL YOU FUCKERS WHEN THE CLERICS ARE DEAD?
Everyone is talking about the similarities between Kristen, Lucy, and Buddy (ie. dead or formerly dead clerics, the minis in the same poses) but nobody is talking about how they were all killed by betrayal
Lucy was betrayed by the Ratgrinders (probably)
Buddy was betrayed by Kipperlilly specifically
But Kristen
Kristen was LITERALLY KILLED BY CORN in her first day of school as a CORN CLERIC
The dead Ratgrinder clerics were betrayed by their party and Kristen was betrayed by the domain of her God
I don't know if this amounts to anything but it makes me want to cry
realizing now that the ratgrinders probably DIDN'T kill lucy frostblade at all. likely, they were all killed by the same entity (jace or some other proxy of the rage goddess) at the same time and lucy was just the only one with the integrity to stay dead, instead of becoming a puppet. that's why ruben was so sad when he said she "stuck to her guns." because he wishes he had been able to be that brave instead of living with a constant anger inside him that overshadows every other part of his life! their grief is, on some level, probably genuine
but now they've passed the moral event horizon and killed buddy almost as a sort of "initiation" ritual. a messed-up version of hazing. "you can't be one of us until you die and come back wrong too"
Lay me gently in the cold dark earth.
i keep having this dream where your blood is turning my hands into river stones, and i keep waking up to pale white sunlight
