Ryslig Sample

[cabaletta]

(Based on scenario one from the Ryslig Test Drive.)

Leviathan! Leviathan, please wake up.

[Anyone following the sounds of a very worried teenage girl will find a rather strange sight--Squigly is nudging and petting and fussing over a strange white snake dragon sticking out of her own head. The creature is obviously very deeply asleep, hanging limply from her head like a second pigtail.

And Squigly can feel the weight of him coiled in her. They're practically one being, she knows he's all there. But having been fished up out of the water and arriving somewhere so strange, so unlike New Meridian, she has no idea how long she's been asleep or what might have happened in the interim. She can't feel the pressure of a Skullgirl on her will, but neither is Leviathan's voice there to keep her company.]

It's okay. [She strokes the head of her sleeping parasite.] I'll figure out a way to help you.

Comments

[Squigly tries to smile a little--more for herself than for her conversational partner, given his condition.] Yes. He's been alive much longer than me, so I'm certain it would take more than this to kill him. [She does know he's not dead, and that helps a lot.]

Forgive me for not introducing myself before. [Even though her acquaintance is blind, she bobs into a curtsy. He might be able to guess at the general gesture based on how the movement changes where her voice is coming from for a few moments.] I'm Squigly. Who are you?

[Squigly? An interesting name, and a few of his thoughts are a touch amused by it, even if it does sound a little silly. Not that he's mentioning that.]

My name is Light. [He smiles and bows his head in her direction in kind, either out of his own sense of manners or in reciprocation to her own gesture.] A pleasure to meet you, Squigly.
