Volumdremaak would have left the City of Order after some time exploring, traveling further out to see what she can find.
She sees the suit of armor (look at previous post for description) looking at a grave and ghost
"Hm....greeting, you are a new being" The shadowy void whispers out as the being rolls closer like an dark fog.
It remains silent
She approaches quietly but doesn't get too close, watching curiously. She can sense power in this being.
It grabs the ghost by it throat and absorbs it and speaks in a cold, metallic, ghastly voice “Return to the ather. Return to the grave.”
"Hm...interesting..." She whispers as she circles around, giving the being a wide berth. She respects those that help the souls move on, though this entity's roughness makes her a bit wary. She doesn't wish to make enemies at this time.
It notices “Speak thy name, oh one of shadows.”
Hearing the being speak, she stops as one draconic eye appears to look at the armored being.
"I am Volumdremaak, the Gentle Darkness." She whispers out.
*back and I’m changing the name* ”I lack a name yet my title is ᛋᚢᛟᛚ ᚱᛖᚾᛞᛖᚱ.” She has no idea what that language was or what it means
"Unfortunately, I do not understand the tongue you spoke, but it is nice to meet you"
“Ah yes, in your speech it would mean, the render of souls. But you may call me Utgard Rohand. Or one of the two.”
"Well, greetings to you Utgard Rohand. I apologize if I was intruding. I'm still a bit new to this world and have been exploring when I came upon you."
“No matter to me.”
"hm, well I can leave you be...unless you have a need to speak to me more...."

Volumdremaak continues to travel, making her way towards the Valley.
Zeon continues to wait, resting at the top of the tree looking out towards the horizon towards the Valley, thinking on what the Celestial One spoke of as he feels more energy surge within him.
Mephilia feels her power swell, filling her with breath of the forge, which she uses for the first time on her creations, breathing life into them. 11 new Metallic Dragons have been created. Filled with new found vigor, she begins work on her next creation, a Clockwork Dragon. Elsewhere, her little Lantern Drakes begin to convulse and change, growing brighter and brighter until they are made entirely of radiant energy, forming the first Light Dragons. Several of them take off, making their way towards the Valley.

Tosu is near the river, punching trees. His face is set in hard concentration, bruises covering his exposed skin. He’s wearing a simple fishnet tanktop and loose shorts, his gear discarded nearby. His tattoos flash with every punch, a vibrant white color. Tosu’s breath is ragged, but he continues, as if fighting for his life. He’s muttering, as if talking to himself. “Damn sword, I- AGH-“ He winces, pausing before continuing his barrage. ”I didn’t sell my damn soul!” He presses his fingers to his temples and exhales softly. “Just.. leave me be. Please. I will get stronger. This is what I need. I don’t require your help.” With a final punch, he smashes a hole straight through the trunk of the tree before closing his eyes and dropping to his knees. “Fantastic..”
He feels something watching him. A dark presence surrounding him, invisible but felt as if it were the air itself.
who are you? The presence whispers like the whistling wind.
He picks his bow up and frowns, scanning the area. “Who’s asking?”
a piece of jewelry. Worn by the ruler of the desert. And once again, who are you?

“Tosu.. Tosu Zhao.” He pauses. “Why are you speaking to me?”

I was curious. Being an inanimate object is quite dull. I heard you wanted to become stronger?
“….I do. But there is always a cost.”

“Are you offering power?”

no, no. Not yet, at least. Do you want me to? I could. I could do lots of things for you. Only if you wanted me to, of course.
Tosu sighs. “I do need to become stronger. I just.. don’t know how. I’ve trained to my physical limits.”

Tosu sighs. “I do need to become stronger. I just.. don’t know how. I’ve trained to my physical limits.”
well, what if I expand your physical limits? Your potential… I could make you ten times stronger. Though only once that wretched king is dead… I do not want to be removed from my current bearer yet, for they are tremendously powerful. But after… I could give you all the power you would ever need.

The demon Faltros. I have a vendetta against them for various reasons. And my bearer is making his way to him right now… hopefully to kill him once and for all.

I would. But Faltros is among the most powerful creatures in existence, so you would have to be careful if you tried to go against them or their minions. They command legions of devils and dragons, and have several creatures of power allied with them as well.
*Who are the current overdeities currently, out of curiosity?*
*Cogintius, the god of order and ruler of the city of order, Faltros the demon and ruler of the underworld, and the swarm, the flesh crafting great one in the form of a monstrous, giant hive of hornets. If an overdeity has been inactive for a month, they are sort of retired and lose that status for simplicity and the next highest gets the spot. The swarm got the spot by killing Herionidus.*
