LU 192 - Mira 9 / Sytamni 1

[TW: Implied S/H]
Sytamni had exited the castle that now served as the current base of all of those fighting against the deity-like trees. He had just been informed by Nat that Mira had suggested for him to go home... But this was too sudden. Something felt off about this. Mira was... smart, right? Surely they had a reason to tell him to go home, but what reason would that be? Perhaps Mira wouldn't mind if he went to her place to ask...
Thus, he started making his way. It took a while, since he had only visited this abode once since the two had met, but eventually he had arrived. After a walk through the little 'tunnel' of theirs, along with an unsettling noise within, he went to the front doors, going to knock; however, the doors had just... creaked open. It was almost eerie, but nevertheless, he yelled out for his friend; "MIRAAA!" 
. . . No response.
He kept calling for her, deciding to go upstairs since he recalled that being where her room was. He kept calling for her, but froze seeing what looked to be an almost dried violet liquid on the floor right by the way up, as if it had dripped... So he followed the trail, finding it to lead towards the double doors of Mira's room. He knocked once, twice, three times even- Calling for his friend, just to make sure she wasn't just sleeping or anything.
Eventually he gave in, pushing the doors open... as if they were left unlocked. What he saw inside though, was almost.. No, it was concerning.
Implied S/H part here:
There were knives, covered in the same purple substance as the droplets outside of the room, and also some smears of the same color on the floor. It was Mira's blood.
But he remained joking about this situation, light-heartedly bashing on the absent Mira for how 'messy' they could be. He tried not to think the worst of the situation, before his eyes trailed to the colored parchment on the floor. It was a map. Perhaps.. Mira went to the location, that was circled in red, on this map?
So he rushed out of the house, map in hand, trying his best to follow it. He didn't quite understand how to operate with maps, so he turned it upside-down, to the left, rotated right, and even flipped it over whilst on his journey- But found a pair of coords written on the back. Now he knew which direction to go.
--
It took him a fair while. But eventually, the structure was in sight, with overgrown twisting vines surrounding the building... Something about it told him that this must have been the place. The surroundings looked accurate to the map, so surely this was it- Though it didn't display this building...
Shrugging off any doubts, and with high hopes, he looked around the oddly built house to find an entrance- And after a moment of searching, he found it. Only to be greeted by the wailing of what sounded to be... Mira, but a lot more distorted. In pain.
His heart sunk, covering his ears before uncovering one to push the doors open, the noise still ringing out constantly, even getting louder as the Silverfolk neared the entrance- Before it stopped. As if the creaking of the old door hinges had silenced the noise.
The unsettling feeling hadn't left him, however. Sytamni had spotted various potions scattered on the floor, some old dusty books, and some fresh potions that looked as though they had just been brewed not that long ago. Hell, there were even broken bottles and shards of glass everywhere, paired with dust and several cobwebs.
He wanted to just find Mira and get out. But, even as he had called out for his friend like he had at the other house, there was...
. . . No response.
Still, he decided to look around. He snatched a few of the harming and poison potions he had found, concern now forming a pit in his tiny stomach. However, trying to remain in a positive mood, he had mentioned yet again, about how his friend was 'messy'. When he had snagged one last potion, his eyes caught sight of a book that looked... a lot less dusty than the ones on the floor. Almost 'new'. It was the only one placed on a lectern as well, so clearly it had some importance, right?
Sytamni crawled up onto the lectern's surface, reading the title; 'Mirage's Final Diary'. He began to wonder, who was this 'Mirage'? Perhaps the book would tell him- So he opened the book, and began to read it's contents. It mentioned many things that Sytamni had no clue of; 'What was Nol?', 'Who is this Elytrian guy?', and brought many other questions. Though, one thing was for sure... Mirage was Mira.
Eventually, after skimming through everything, his eyes went over the last page with words.
'I'm sorry. These are probably the last words, of Mirage Imperium.'
He panicked, frantically turning the page hoping he would find something more, but found a hole in the pages, with something inside. It was spherical, and a dark green color... Was this an enderpearl?
He slowly lifted his head, trying to process all of the information this book had given him, before spotting a hole on the wall... Just about big enough for an enderpearl to fit through. So, hoping it would lead to something, he grabbed the orb... And chucked it through the opening.
Pop!
Sytamni had appeared on the other side of the wall, where the pearl had landed. He gave a sigh of relief, before noticing the lit up pit next to his current standing point. He was nervous to look down, to say the least... But when he did, he had been filled with a newfound adrenaline.
Mira was down there!
So he jumped down, enduring the fall with the armor he wore, looking over the... unconscious Enderian. That's when Sytamni also noticed the pooling blood around their body. He didn't have any potions on him at the moment- Well, aside from the poison and harming potions he found earlier, but those wouldn't help in this situation. He attempted shaking the Enderian awake, even yelling- To no avail.
He soon made his way back up, crawling through the opening in the wall again, and began to rummage through the storage of the rest of the house. Surely there was bound to be more things around here-
Then, something told him he was running out of time to help Mira.
He was too small to pick her up and get them out of the pit- That's when he looked back in the book that Mira wrote, and being reminded of someone that had been mentioned a couple times within.
Jeremy.
Now he made a run for the castle, where he last saw the young potato boy, who also happened to be the son of Mira. If anybody could help the Enderian, it could be him! Sytamni just hoped he could get there and back to the house in time with Jeremy...
--
The Silverfolk finally managed to arrive at the castle, heaving as if he was almost out of breath- That's when he saw the potato boy he had been looking for, exiting the castle. Thus, he ran towards Jeremy, calling for his attention, and asking, begging the potato to follow to where he went. He even stressed that it involved Mira, and that they were running out of time.
The two felt like they hadn't run faster in their lives as they made their way to the building.
The duo finally arrived, both panting from running this far- Sytamni more so. They were lucky that it had started raining during that last minute, otherwise they likely wouldn't have gotten here for another three-
5...
That reminded Sytamni that he needed to show Jeremy the opening, in which they had both brute-forced through the wall to get to the other side, simultaneously taking out the bookshelf with it.
4...
Sytamni ushered for the potato to jump down the pit, in which Mira layed unconscious- So the two of them hopped down when Jeremy saw her, enduring the fall with their armor.
3...
Jeremy panicked seeing his mother passed out and wounded, but began to rummage through the items he had, trying to find something...
2...
... anything that could help Mira! And, that's when he took hold of a potion. Jeremy looked at it's color quickly, seeing it's pink color. A healing potion!
1...
Jeremy got closer to Mira, tilting their head back as best he could, popping open the potion's cap, and began forcing the Enderian to drink it-
...
The potion that Jeremy had looked as though it had worked it's literal magic on Mira's comatose-self rather quickly. The two were incredibly relieved to see that Mira's injuries that they had sustained from... whatever it was, had appeared to heal, thanks to the potion's effects. Though that didn't quite help with how... frail the Enderian now looked. Jeremy took a moment to cradle his unconscious mother in his arms, having been fearful for the fact that she, like others before them, had nearly died... But this time, again- He nearly ended up watching them perish again, like what had happened months ago... The young potato didn't want such a thing, not another time.
Jeremy suggested to Sytamni, who had been sitting awkwardly nearby, that they should now get Mira out of the pit- In which Jeremy had lifted his Enderian mother onto his back, and made his way out of the pit, Sytamni in tow. Sytamni then called for Jeremy's attention one last time as the Silverfolk had recalled that he hadn't read it yet. He handed the 'Final Diary' of Mira over to the spudling, allowing him to read it. And, whilst Jeremy read that book, he had snatched the other two dusty books he had seen earlier.
After Jeremy lowered the book, an expression of disbelief on his face, he gave a huff to himself. His mother wrote about him, saying she was proud of him, before all of this happened... He just hoped that Mira would still be proud of him now. Nonetheless, the Silverfolk and potato now began their travel back towards Mira and Jeremy's house.
Now both Sytamni and Jeremy knew of Mira's real name and lineage.
