Re: ENDGAME AND REVIVALS
[waving her hands around as she describes the scene]
Well, I had been captured by some Easterners who wished to perform some foreign sorcery on me, in hopes that I would gain those abilities that my teammate, Persephone, has, as to better assist them in their war. Why they did not ask me if I would like to fight... [shrugs] but I had business of my own to attend to, so would have had to defer any battle they may offer, had they asked.
Despite the fact that one of their number insisted it would likely be a failure, and lead to my death with nothing gained, their commander had her attempt to place a shard of... something sorcerous... within me. Though I had been bound via magic, they had loosened the spells to attempt this procedure, so I fought them, for all that it was at least three versus one. It looked quite desperate indeed, but I have remembered I am something of a sorcerer myself, and, in a attempt that was quite inspired, I tried to redirect into a rune of protection to use its own power to repel it from my body.
It was then they shocked me, using a device somewhat like those given to Ophiuchus to enforce the Judges' rules. Which disrupted my concentration for my spell, I am ashamed to say, and allowed them to complete their procedure, which was, indeed, lethal.
