10, 9, 8 7, 6… While Lethe didn’t have a penchant for dramatics, there was something poetic about the timing. She’d been told to complete this task quite a bit ago, but there was something about starting a new year that resonated with humans. They believed they could start fresh “New year. New me!” was the mantra of many. ...5...4...3… Looking to her brother, she took a deep breath. In true form, eyes black as the void stared back at Lethe, waiting. If it wasn’t for a fostered surge of worship, she wasn’t sure she’d be able to properly complete the task. 2...1! Just as the cheers started. Should auld acquaintance be forgot And the singing lifted throughout the crowds. And never brought to mind? Lethe reached out, concentrating on those cursed, those she knew intimately from touching them over and over again throughout the millennia. They were a part of her as she was a part of them, but they’d never understand. Akheron held her hand in his, combining their energy; the swirl of the beginning and end of the reincarnation process. Should auld acquaintance be forgot The spindly fingers of her influence wrapped around them, lifting off layers that held memories back. Revealing those lives they had lived before. All the pain associated with the memories of lives past linked into the fog being lifted from his sister. and auld lang syne? [ooc note: The effect of the memories being uncovered will be immediate for some and take time for others (as memories are weird like that). More than one past life memory can be remembered, but at least one of them will be painful.] |
