The Tree of Divinity has reached its final stage. It towers before the entire forest, a mile tall, and its domain of nature 100 miles wide. As its apparent followers gather around it, they notice something. The first fully grown fruit is ready for harvesting. But this isn't any regular fruit, no. Glowing, divine apples hang from the branches, imbued with pure divine power. Even if a godly being were to eat this, they would find themselves empowered and refreshed. Or, if a mortal ate it, a new immortal being might be created. For the Tree has reached level 4, collected the Light domain, and now provides its power points in the form of its fruits to those who are worthy.
Orchid approaches the Tree of Divinity, curious. They look up in awe at the sheer scale of this divine plant. "It seems we've both grown a lot since we last met, no?"
The tree says nothing in return, due to its lack of sentience.
The entity, upon hearing a new voice, turns to look at the speaker. He sees a similar aura surrounding her as the tree, one of vines and fruit. The memories are sweet ones, consisting primarily of her exploring the world.
Orchid turns to lock eyes with the entity, their eyes a vivid whirling mix of teal and pink and amber. As they turn to face him, he senses other older memories of theirs. A stabbing, burning pain like acid, a few conversations between Orchid and Savut, and a deep sense of devotion and self-sacrifice that seems to emanate from them.
"Hello there. I wasn't expecting anyone else to be here."

"Hello there. I wasn't expecting anyone else to be here."
The entity feels a sharp pain from the memories, stinging his mind; the they stop. He shakes his head just as the Will says something. He quickly signs back.
What was signed: Just wandering. Saw this. Stopped and watch. Did not notice you.
What was meant/implied: I was just wandering, then I saw this. I decided to stop and watch. I didn't notice you though...
Orchid looks back at the tree, smiling. "It's beautiful, is it not? When I first found this tree it was still early in its growth. I'm happy to see what it has grown into."

The entity nods his head.
What was signed: Interesting. Sentient Will? No thoughts, but aura.
What was implied/meant: Interesting. Is it a sentient Will? I didn't detect any complete thoughts, but it has a Will's aura.

She grabs the nearest one, channeling pure lightning into it and blasting it apart. She then swings around, aiming the wrist weapon at a suit. A thunderclap breaks the air, and the armour stand finds itself in a smoking heap on the floor 10 feet away. "I haven't had this much fun in my life!" Caiatl exclaims, bashing another one aside.
The Nameless King laughs as she tears through all of them one by one, the crowd cheering at the entertainment. He thinks to how she reminds him of his own younger self, not yet a thunderstorm, but rather a tornado. He makes sure there are enough to keep her going as long as she wants.
Eventually, she stops, but not before there is a huge pile of armour bits in the middle of the arena. "Well, I believe we can safely say I can hold my own against mortals. But what about those more powerful than me?" She stands straight, the challenge clear.

Hi! I'm EJO. I am a silly billy who forgets to play Genshin Impact every day and totally DOESN'T simp for at least three different ninja girls. Some other facts about me:
Milio has been ditched. Now Xerath is my friend.
My average accuracy in Marvel Rivals is about 15%.
"Of course." Savathún leads him to her camp. It is assembled like a form of temple, guarded at the entrance by two golem-like creatures. As she leads him inside, he notices a hubbub of activity. A number of acolytes, like mini Savathúns without all the embellishments and wings, get up from meditation positions and kneel. Some smaller thralls, eyeless things that slink around in the shadows, watch the little procession.
He moves through the camp, just looking at people and seeing how they live, eavesdropping on their small talk occasionally, seeing what their lives are like before heading back to Savathun "Hmm, this is a good camp, if I were mortal I would be thankful at the chance to rest here. Even as a will, resting here wouldn't be a mistake."
The lives of these creatures seem tedious at best. Work groups erect different areas, working as if they were all connected somehow. The thralls seemingly can't converse, the acolytes and knights aren't very talkative, but the wizards, which seem rare, talk to each other telepathically almost constantly. "Thank you. Most people steer clear because of, well..." She gestures at the nearest thrall, "We don't look all that friendly, do we?"

The Nameless King walks into the area, the very storm around him moving the armor out of the way. His armor crackles with lightning as he takes his greatspear, readying himself for combat “Come my herald, we shall do the dance done in battles long past.”

He gives a genuine smile, flashing his long and very sharp fangs “Oh you’re telling me. Most people find vampires to be very scary indeed, and those that don’t, are teenagers that don’t understand stranger danger applies to my kind too.” He chuckles “This place seems quiet, I like it, a good place where I could write some haikus without the issue of being disturbed.”

*Timesplit for the Nameless King*
The Frenzy is walking around, destroying the terrain around it.
They see a massive storm in the distance, at the center of that storm being the Nameless King, an nearly unparalleled colossus.
Rendy watches curiously, wondering what this Will i doing. "Hello!"
"Woah, that Will is huge, how have I not seen them before?" Phantom says surprised. He contemplates if he should approach, what if they are hostile. After a bit of internal debate, he decides to fly closer.

The Nameless King notices the approaches of the smaller will, the storm calming slightly as they draw closer, lightning crackling all around.

He sticks his greatspear into the ground, sending dirt everywhere, their voice loud, but gentle "Hello child."
