Embrace 22: Where You Gonna Run To?

## Content Warnings

Insects, eating of an envoy, temporary hearing loss

*"The Gall, naturally, fell into Oken’s hands. That discarded thing, relic lost and living, vessel to a remnant’s power. I’m not sure whether then or later, he understood the potential of what he carried. Raised himself on power’s sap, could he truly read its dread portent? Maybe he saw it only as ember, in the carcass the jackal only sees a thing to be consumed, it does not behold the new life promised in the ground beneath."*

Embrace 11: For A Moment Or So

## Content Warnings

police violence and named NPC death (1:21:30 to 1:25:46), natural disaster (earthquake)

*"Those moments were just a glimpse though. They’d soon be brought to an end. Disaster brings out the best in communities, and the worst in authority.” I can’t remember if it was Serrivomer or Boctive that said that, but either way, those words would prove prophetic."*

*Nilkat*"

## Summary

For a week after the earthquake, the people of Atrium, Calvary, Hinter and Holm are left to fend for themselves. Absent of the council’s attention, community effort, and grassroots organising help them to recover from the earthquake.
As the earthquake’s effects make themselves known, the Jubilant Maybe spend time helping their community’s efforts. They fix infrastructure, secure food, help out their families, and give people a way to relax.
This strange lull won’t last though; the void of authority is temporary. It’s no surprise when they move to take back what’s theirs.

Embrace 05: Deny Your Maker

## Content Warnings

Body horror, possession, insects

*"Us that used to play in the alleys and backstreets of Calvary had a game. A bunch of us would cluster together, locked arm-to-arm, roaring and vicious, pretending to be a remnant. Whoever was left got to be one of the Tenders, would try and take that giggling mass of bodies down. They’d pretend to be Carn nim Daker or Arbor’s Precident or another of their legends.
 Everyone had their favourite, though there was one we always fought over. Oken nim Shalif, the slayer of Relict and the Ochre Hull. In those streets where we played, we could see his tower where he was said to keep watch, asleep until Embrace needed him."*

*Nilkat*"

## Summary

Before Oken nim Shalif lies the rapidly calcifying body of a god. Relict – remnant of preservation, of Eolith – dead by his spear. In its last moments, that vacant gives one last, parting gift. Time slips. Oken – wielder of the sun spear, Tender of the Dawn’s Embers, remnant-killer, and, at last, a hero worthy of his family’s name – becomes unmoored in time. Days, months and years begin to slip through his fingers. Here, we find out what happens each time he wakes.

Flint Erul Tun

## Description

Flint Erul Tun is a middle-aged to older warrior rarely seen without their steed and companion Bregu. They are tall with a wiry strength, and their hair is pulled back and hangs long.

### Humanity

Flint's skin and hair is grey and stone-like. Their hair doesn't flow much in the air as they move. Flint is a Hollow, born without a spirit. Flint can feel and manipulate the earth and rock around and beneath them.

### Personality

Flint believes they are doing what they do for the greater good. Unlike some Jackals, Flint cares deeply about Remnants and doesn't wish to see them eradicated.

## Relationships

**Bregu:** Bregu is Flint's steed and companion.

**Jackals:** Flint is doubting their place in the Jackals and the modus operandi of the Jackals generally.

**Oken:**

## History

Flint has been a warrior for a while, gaining renown. Eventually, quite late in their life, they were recruited by the Jackals to help bring down errant Remnants. They have killed more than one Remnant at the point that they are called to kill Relict, the last one a Remnant of stone called Orthoclase. At the start of the mission in Eolith, Flint still fights for other humans and to protect the Remnants from themselves, but is having doubts about the Jackals as an organisation. Did Orthoclase need killing, or could it have been helped or fixed in a different way?

## Mechanics

### Strengths

* Born Hollow: Flint was born without a spirit, meaning they may be less affected by certain effects of the Remnant
* I felled Orthoclase And Now I'm Stone: Flint's skin is actually stone to some degree. They can feel the earth around them and can manipulate the strata beneath them
* Bregu, A Faithful Steed

### Oaths

* I Fight to Protect my Comrades
* I Fight to Protect the Remnants from Themselves
* I Fight to Keep the World Civil

### Power

* Flint draws their power from their training, and from their consumption of part of Orthoclase

## Content Warnings

Political unrest, takeover of government building, protest, violence

*"For one moment, the night before, I’d known something like peace. For hours half-a-dozen of us had written and debated and drafted, putting words to the cause that carried our bones. LV was the one to set it and I remember the clacking of their presses as they created copy after copy. The smell of the heat and the paper and the ink lives with me even now. I remember thinking that I should sleep, we should sleep, for the day ahead of us. But how could we, when the future long fought for was being given life before our eyes."*

Tiller Bract

## Description

### Humanity

A relatively broad frame, amber skin tanned by a lifetime of working under the sun and laced with scars and burns from working with the Occant moths. Their face is relatively square and their jaw is chiselled, with a slight underbite. From the top of their head grow leaves reminiscent of oxalis, which seem to react to both the sun and their emotions.

### Personality

A hard stare, but a warm smile; both are used to great effect.

### Clothing and Equipment

They wear well-made clothes of cloth and leather

## History

Pre-Tiding:

Originally from Atropa training horses for the noble class to race. They had a partner named Alison, and at some point in Irravence they were both beset by some kind of threat (possibly Alison having a degenerative condition rather than an external pursuer), forcing them to move to Cenja. Tiller changed profession to training and herding Occant instead of horses, learning new skills in the process. They also spent time in nature with Alison, and built them an art space.

Eventually Alison became ill and died, causing Tiller to break with grief. They went to The Revenant Chorus, the monks in Eulogy, to have their painful memories taken from them. This caused Tiller to become confused at times, and for five years they lived a vague existence. The monks kept returning, with increasing frequency and insistence (eventually accompanied by armed guards), to convince Tiller to give up more memories.

## Content Warnings

*"I think that was when I began to question my place in the Splintered Breath. Funny really, that when you joined was when I first thought about leaving.
It wasn’t that I disagreed with what we were trying to do – Calloa did not deserve its imprisonment.

I saw then that she would put her ideals above the safety of others."*

Embrace 08: If I Had A Voice I Would Sing

## Content Warnings

Mass protest, violence against protestors, death, natural disaster

*"Heat in Embrace wraps close to the skin – saturating, condensation mingling with sweat. There’s a texture to it that I’ve not felt anywhere else. When the sun breaks, it doesn’t tip-toe through dawn. It’s there in its full fury, from moment of first light 'til its dusk retreat.
That summer the city blistered. The scrimshawers were kept busy repairing cracks in bone; the Trill’s moisture was the only thing that stopped the fleshwood from igniting. Our tempers though were frayed to wicks, ready to catch. Hulling day would be the spark."*

 *Show more/less*

*Nilkat*"

## Summary

On this day each year, the people of Embrace down their work tools, and instead tend to their homes and streets. A tradition formed in the days following the Ochre Hull’s attack, as people refused demands to return to work and instead repaired the rubble of their communities. The day came to be known as Hulling Day.
This year those privileged few who get to vote gather in Marrow Ward. They cast their ballots for the new warden of Holm, the ward that Atrium officially belongs to. They chose between the incumbent, Tomer Lorving – favoured by nim Daker and nim Callad – and Parsib nim Corvanus, nim Shif’s proxy candidate.
Sick of their disenfranchisement, the people of Atrium are on the march. Though they know it’s a hollow act,  they’re going to vote in a warden of their own.

Voëk

## Description

A nomadic group dedicated to understanding the Remnants.

## Traditions

Upon death, an obelisk is raised. It is crenellated to maximise surface area, and every surface is inscribed with details of that person's life: everything they did, who they are, and all the knowledge they ave gained. The community members don't often travel in groups, so their way of passing on knowledge is to have it on these obelisks. The body of the person is preserved inside the obelisk, in a standing position.

## Relationships

### Remnants

*"When a remnant demands beauty,
 give your eyes so it can see its land.
When a remnant demands expression,
give your tongue so it can speak.
When a remnant demands knowledge,
give your thoughts so it can understand.
When a remnant demands service,
give your body so it can act.
When a remnant demands certainty,
give your spirit so it can judge.
When a remnant demands death,
give your life so it can be put to a higher purpose."*

―A prayer recorded on a Voëk grave, Cenja

## History

Voëk tombs are often subject to vandalism, as people chip off interesting information and secrets to sell. Several pieces of obelisk are kept in the vaults of The Hearts in Ur-Taal, where Belka has studied several of them.

B2S15C23

Victim

* Shelly Wilcox

Suspects

* Conner Lancaster
* Amber Reed
* Rachel Flint
* Annie Miller
* Darron Barber

Killer

* Darron Barber

Motive

Darron said that ever since his mother killed his father in a drunken rage while he was a teenager, he has always had a strong hatred for women. Darron said that he chose to become a pimp so he could punish them. Darron then confessed to being the serial killer who killed several young girls and Ryan was after before his murder. Darron then said that his main target was Amber Reed, since he found out that the next movie she was casted in had her as a final girl in a horror movie and based on what happened to him as a kid, he thought that the final girl shouldn’t be a girl at all. As soon as he saw Shelly, however, he couldn’t resist killing her.

Sentence

Life Imprisonment

Additional Investigation

After arresting Darron, we decide to look up his mom in the Uzibibian prison system and we realize that the prison she’s in is located nearby. We then decide to interrogate her and she introduces herself as Joniqua Barber. We then ask her to tell her what happened on the night where she killed Darron’s father, and she told us that she had no other choice. She told us that although Darron loved his dad and that he was the greatest father in the world to Darron, he wasn’t a very good husband at all. After Darron fell asleep, his dad kept drinking and drinking until he became drunk and beat his wife so much that she ended up in the hospital more than once. As soon as he said he was going to kill her he struck again and again and again, before she grabbed the bottle out of his hand and everything turned black. When she regained consciousness, she saw a teenage Darron who just returned from a party looking at her in horror and his father laying on the ground dead. No matter what she tried to tell him, even while in prison, Darron never believed his father could do anything wrong and thought that his mother was pure evil. She was somewhat worried since he said things like, “All women are the same!” “chicks always lie!” and “I can’t believe your kind anymore!” Joniqua told us that she wasn’t surprised that Darron turned to killing young women but she was saddened that her own son turned into such a monster over a simple misunderstanding. She said that his father also told him about how women lie and how they’re evil and that he could have also gotten some of his hatred for women from him too. We then return to the station and put two and two together and suspect that Darron is the person who shot Ryan and Valeria. We knew that Ryan was onto his case, Valeria was a woman who often got drunk at bars, and Caden was a close friend of his. We then realize that Darron had to be Ryan and Valeria’s killer and that Brett suggested after being arrested that he was an important member of the Peacemakers or Mystery Men. We decide to have a little talk with Darron after this discovery, but right after we do, Waleed burges into the station and tells us that his supervisor is going to kill him. We asked him why, and he then said that Darron Barber was shot to death on his watch.

Tiding 31: Eulogy

## Content Warnings

Death

*"…Belka, when the earth around it has dried too completely to sustain it, the stone fern gathers up its leaves close and pulls up its own roots from the earth – we cannot hear the cries of plants, but we must assume that it hurts it some to do so – but still it does so, and it lets the winds take it with them until it finds what it is looking for. And perhaps it settles there or moves on again and again, but each time it must it takes the risk – because staying where the dry stone sucks the life away from it is undoubtedly the worst fate it can imagine."*

*Karuum, the Heart of Growth*"

Embrace 21: Unsure, Unsound And Unstable

## Content Warnings

Insect/arthropod-like envoy

*"Lilylium was the second. Envoy born before there was Embrace, before there was Alamire. In many ways we were lucky that it was the Jubilant that faced them, even if it was to be in the labyrinth they’d made their hunting grounds."*

 *Show more/less*

*Nilkat*"

## Summary

Lilylium comes. The envoy’s forces, arranged around the Winter’s Lodge, move in to attack. They mean to take the gall for themselves.
The various allies inside the lodge can do little but attempt to buy enough time – to move the lodge’s inhabitants and the gall beyond Lilyium’s reach.
The Jubilant Maybe face Lilylium themselves. They mean to distract the ancient envoy, to draw their attention away from the lodge. Little do the Jubilant know that the gall is actually in their midst, carried inside Oken’s body.

Vilte Gosditte

## Description

Vilte is a spiritweaver trying to prevent the events in her ominous vision from happening- or at least to mitigate their effects. During the first part of Tiding, she is very thin and slightly malnourished. she wears her hair long, cascading over one shoulder.

### Humanity

Vilte has dark skin and angular features. She has small nodules in her neck that can fan out to form a sort of frill or ruff that protects her from heat. All over her skin are small polyps, a bluish-grey that is slightly lighter then the rest of her skin.

## History

### Pre-story

As told in Tiding 02, Vilte's weaving powers caused her to be taken as a child to be trained up to assist those in power in her city of Cer-Ashe: the guilds and governors. She worked, cloistered, with spirit and fate to predict fortune and prevent disaster for those that took her. She earned enough to get by, and even to buy a few trinkets and curiosities from distant lands she'd never seen. She had a few friends, and lived simply.

After two decades of this work, and now in about her thirties, she had a vision that showed her something dark growing to the south, an end of sorts to the world. When the guilds and governors of her town refused to engage, perhaps because they lived far from the happenings in the vision, Vilte defied them and set out alone to try and stop it. After leaving her town, Vilte met Belka, who was also leaving a cloistered life. As she travelled south towards the danger, she collected more people around her, who believed that her warning was serious and wished to help her prevent tragedy. Together they formed the Parish (Tiding 00).

Vilte arrived in The Sharrow before the rest of the Parish, visiting Lief and Cast before reaching Ninut with warnings for the village about a difficult future. The village was fractured, with some believing Vilte's warnings and thinking about leaving; others were hostile, making plans to poison her. Learning of this, Vilte chose not to let the village tear itself apart and instead took the poison herself without the village's knowledge. She fell into a deep sleep and remained so for months. Her Parish arrived in the village soon after she fell asleep, and the subsequent tensions caused the village to expel the Parish, along with any that chose to follow them. The ensuing caravan left Ninut with Vilte sleeping in a cart, being tended to by members of the Parish and Tomil's family.

### Tiding season 1

In Tiding 02, Korrin, sitting by her, says that Vilte 'dreams weird'.
