Chapter 3 - chapter 3

[Prepare for appraisal…]

Sunny found himself in a space between dream and reality. It was an endless black void illuminated by a myriad of stars. Between those stars, countless strings of silver light were woven into a beautiful and inconceivably complex net, forming various nexuses and constellations. It was truly breathtaking.

[You have received a Memory: Puppeteer's Shroud]

'Yes!'

Sunny was really happy he got puppeteer's Shroud again, even though he knew it was not gonna make him invincible like he first tought he was still really happy he got it again.

[Aspirant! Your trial is over.]

[A nameless slave ascended the Black Mountain. Both heroes and monsters fell by his hand. Unbroken, he entered the ruined temple of a long-forgotten god. He performed an ancient dance, apealing to the Shadow God. He spilled his blood on the sacred altar. The gods were dead, and yet they listened]

'It changed, well its to be expected, so im not complaining'

[You have defeated a dormant beast: Mountain King's Larva.]

[You have defeated five dormant humans, names unknown.]

[You have defeated an awakened human: Auro of the Nine.]

[You have defeated an awakened tyrant: Mountain King.]

[You have received the Shadow God's blessing.]

[You have achieved the impossible!]

[Final appraisal: glorious. Your treachery truly knows no bounds.]

The spell was flattering but it was okay he liked the praise from it.

[You have been bestowed a True Name: Lost from Light.]

This time sunny smiled as he heard that knowing that it was something very important and dangerous in enemy hands. He would probably let nephis have it, but he wasnt sure so he let it go and would focus on it later

[Your Aspect is ready to evolve. Evolve Aspect?]

'Yes'

[Dormant Aspect Temple Slave is evolving…]

[New Aspect acquired.]

[Aspect Rank: Divine.]

[Aspect Name: Shadow Cohort.]

Aspect: [Shadow Cohort].

Aspect Rank: Divine.

Aspect Description: [You are a miraculous shadow left behind by a dead god. As a divine shadow, you possess plenty of strange and wondrous powers. However, your existence is empty and lonesome, you mourn the death of your cohort members and seek new ones all trought the world.]

Innate Ability: [Shadow Bond]

Ability Description: [ Find someone worthy being a member of your cohort and exchange true names, then, a bond will be made and an unbrekable connection will be made betwen all of the party members. Those who wish to break that connection will pay.]

Sunny was bumbfounded, he never expected that the same ability that had imprisoned him and made his life that bad would turn out to be the best thing in the world, althou it probably had some restrictions and limitations it was still amazing. He couldnt wait to tell neph and the others about this, he was truly happy.

[Mark of divinity is ready to evolve. Procede?]

'Yes'

Atribute: [Flame of Divinity.]

Sunny already guessed it would evolve after the nightmare so he wasnt suprised, but still he wanted to know a few things like if the parts of weavers lineage were still there and if he could still get them or give them to someone else. He knew he would find out in time so he let the spell contionue

The spell sounded in his ears at that moment and said:

[The First Seal is broken.]

[Awakening dormant powers…]

Sunny knew what was happaning and enjoyed the power seeping into his body, he still felt weak compared to before he went back in time, while it would be hard to get back to that level of power he was determined to do it and amongst many other things, he also wanted to help neph kill the sovereigns and a lot of other things.

[The first seal is broken.]

Sunny recived the same abilities and flaw so he decided ro summon his runes and looked at them. They read:

Name: Sunless.

True Name: Lost from Light.

Rank: Dreamer.

Shadow Core: Dormant.

Shadow Fragments: [20/1000].

Memories: [Silver Bell], [Puppeteer's Shroud], [Soldiers Will]

Echoes: —

Attributes: [Fate Breaker], [Flame of Divinity], [Child of Shadows], [Blood Weave], [Bone Weave], [Soul Weave]

Sunny looked at the runes wirh a bewildered look on his face, he didnt know what the new atribute did but was very happy to find out what it said.

Fate Breaker: [ The chains of fate are lose around you and can't hold you back. Others in your close proximity will experience unexpected things not even known by those who can see the future.]

Sunny was suprised by that description, and he didnt really like that because it would mean cassie would have a hard time saving them from unknown danger, and it also meant that his knowlage of the future not always work in all of the situations witch was bad. At that moment sunny never tought he would want fated back but he quickly dismissed that tought.

[Wake up, Lost from Light! ]
