*There's something calling you, urging you to come, please please help help hurt help it screams*
*It's desperate, not fully coherent, probably the one sending the message doesn't even realize he's doing so*
- @evilfairyrulie
*The moment Grewn feels the pull from Evil Fairy he is rushing to get to fae. He has no time to waste and he promised to come when called so he is.*
*He appears quickly, blob of magic form looking like he is oil on water — all strangely shaped and moving.*
Puck?!
*He's laying on the ground, half conscious from the blood loss, and with how it seemed that faers magic was also mixed with faers blood now, magic exhaustion*
*There were knives impaling him in various places, wings and antennas present even in his hylian form, a desperate attempt at transforming? One of the wings had a knife pinning it down. The metal of the knives seemed to hurt the area around them*
*His stomach had a deep cut, one arm bent in a weird angle with clearly the bone broken as it was slightly visible, a chunk of flesh missing on one of his arms and one of faers shoulders was clearly out of place, not also counting the multiple cuts all over faers body*
*Someone decided to take their frustration out on him, that was clear, and probably... It was deserved. The cane was forgotten on the side, luckily nobody has picked it up at least, seems intact*
*He gives a sound that mortal ears can only process as loud banshee screeching. Rage and fear surge — that is Puck! Dying?! No! Not allowed!*
*He shoves down the need for revenge. Revenge later. Helping his brother now.*
*He settles over you, willing his magic reserves to you to help keep you stable. His magic pulls the knives away as he starts the healing magic he knows.*
*his healing magic isn't pretty, or as strong as that of a fairy but it's strong enough to close wounds even if it leaves nasty scars.*
*He hums, trying to help you. He needs to take you to get help! First he stabilizes though... then maybe he can ask nice fairy lady?*
*He barely registers someone coming, who? Wait no no get away fae doesn't-- He barely reacts, even if it's clear the initial panic, searching for his cane, it was okay no? nobody took it? Please--*
*He whines as each knife is taken out, the are around bruised and seemed a bit burned, metal and the fae never got along after all. When you start to heal the attempt of a scream leaves his throat, please stop hurts hurts-- But nothing else comes out, faers throat hurts, probably a bit damaged from screaming earlier*
*Fae tries to see who was there, vision blurry and still not fully conscious to see clearly. An antenna twitches, attempting to feel who was there, please don't be... Please, last thing fae needs is to be back, please don't be them, please--*
*Green chimes, taking the cane lightly and bringing it to your side. He doesn't know what it is until he touches it — oh. Oh. He sets the cane beside you, letting go of it as soon as it's there.*
*iron. Iron?! Green makes a cross sound, pouring as much healing energy as he can. He just needs to get you stable and then he can take you to the big nice fairy lady.*
It's okay. It's me, it's Green. You call, I come.
*His voice shakes, but it is clearly his voice. He has... a vague idea of who did this but for now he is focusing on your health.*
*Fae at the vague sensation of someone taking the cane panics, when it is left next to him he immediately extends one hand to grab it, no matter if it hurts, fae needs to keep it safe, nobody can touch it no no--*
*Most of the cuts had been healed by you now, and the biggest injuries are no longer an immediate risk, the blood and magic loss will take a bit to fully recover though*
...gre-green?... 's that you...
*That was your voice no? That was you, you...*
*Fae tries to move towards you, but his whole body was still in pain, he just stays there, antennas and wings twitching as he finally recognizes you, it's just Green...*
Just me. You safe. Cane safe, you have cane.
*He envelopes you in a cloud hug, lifting you and supporting you as best he can.*
We get help. Nice big lady help.
*He moves you — making sure the cane stays in your hand. He starts towards Nemali's fountain. You're closest to her afterall, distance wise.*
Safe.
*He's purring again to try to help.*
*Fae whimpers when he's moved, everything hurts... Worse than it usually does, so much worse*
*What nice lady? The one you spoke before? Sure... Whatever, if you're there, as long as you're there, then he won't protest*
*He starts to purr back even if it is too quiet and broken, trying to not think too much about... Everything, everything hurts, this is not fun, not... Not fair, no fair no fair no fair--*
*Nameli's fountain isn't too far, you easily find the entrance in the same place as the last time, well hidden from anyone who doesn't already know it*
*He hates that you hurt — that he's hurting you... but great fairies can help more than he can.*
Sorry. So sorry. Help soon.
*He's as gentle as he can be while he moves you, entering the fountain as he purrs louder.*
Hello? Please help! Brother hurt!
*His voice carries even though he refuses to yell so close to your ears. He's trying his best, and he is grateful you are purring back.*
*His magic is ... upset. Shadows warp towards him.*
*Fae is tired... he barely got to rest before you arrived, his eyes feel heavy... Maybe... if he rests them for a bit...*
*Faers ears twitch when you raise your voice, it's starting to sound muffled, so tired...*
*Some fairies at the fountain gather around you when you arrive, and then move back when they notice who you bring. Some stay, some fully fly away*
*She was on her true form to reach a few roots of those berries that were growing above the cave, but went towards you quickly when she heard you, changing back to the form that she had when you met her*
Green, was it? Didn't expect you to come today...
*She falls silent when she sees who you bring, rushing over to take a better look*
*He calms down just a little when he sees Nemali. Is she's fairy mom she must be okay because Fairy is great.*
Yes hi.
Help? Please?
*He holds Puck where she can see, trying his best to keep steady. He's still purring, supporting Puck weight as best he knows how.*
Found him hurt worse. I help where can... you help too?
*She's quiet as she quickly checks on him, her magic rushing to look over what she can't see at first glance*
... I can help, yeah
*She seems to be thinking about something, but she slowly starts to heal faer, carefully moving some parts like the shoulder and arm so they heal correctly, she seems to have a lot of experience in healing, not only magical. She reaches out for the cane with the intention of move it aside to properly heal him*
*Fae tenses when he feels the magic, someone else? Get away get away-- his grip on the cane tightens when he notices a hand trying to take it*
Dear... I need you to let it go, can't heal your arm well if it's so tense while holding that cane
*Fae whimpers, no no nobody has to touch it no losing control no control fae doesn't want to lose control again no taking away--*
Thank you. Thank you. I pay soon.
*He doesn't care that he's put himself at debt with a fae. He's worried for Puck.*
Is okay, no one hurt you here.
No touch cane.
*Green frowns, then timidly he asks.*
Can I hold cane? No use! Give it back! Nice lady heal. Can say no hold cane.
*He's trying to give options here. He won't force Puck to do anything, but he does ask.*
No need for that... Can't ask for payment to a God
*Fae rules had their limits after all, they weren't above the divine, but she has a feeling that it won't stop you*
*She stops on her way when you tell her not to, a bit confused, she'll ask later, together with a lot of things*
*Fae holds tightly the cane, doesn't want to let it go, it just hit him that if anyone followed whatever faers magic was doing before and grabbed faers cane... He shakes his head, he won't give it, can't do it, can't risk it, not again--*
What if you just... Put it down for a bit? Let it go on the ground? We promise to not touch it at all and you can hold it again when I'm done with healing you
*Fae thinks about it for a moment, not letting go that's dangerous what if-- Green is trustful, he wouldnt-- Yeah but still--*
*His grip on the cane slowly falters until letting it go fully, his hand shaking both from fear and from the pain in faers whole arm*
There... Thanks... I'll try to be quick
*And she goes back to reacomodating each arm, healing them when they were in the right position, being careful to not cause even more harm*
Can ask.
*He's a God now, but he isn't cruel. You're spending energy on something for him so he will pay.*
Watch cane. No one touch. I bite them.
*He would bite them too. How he'll do that in cloud form is a mystery but he'll figure it out.*
*Green holds each limb where Nemali puts them, gentle as he purrs louder. No one is allowed to hurt his brother. Not again.*
Rest. Better soon. Then get lettuce and cheese.
*Fae whimpers each time he's moved a bit, but the pain is starting to be less and less, now he's just... Tired...*
Don't sleep yet, need to make sure you didn't get any infection from iron, from what I see in some injuries it was involved, together with getting something in your system, you lost a lot of blood and magic...
*He just wants to rest, why can't he rest yet? He wants to sleep...*
*She finishes healing all injuries, the ones she healed not leaving scars unlike the ones you did. She looks up at you*
Okay... No severe infection, you were quick enough for that to happen, it shouldn't cause any problem. His blood levels are still really low though, and that's something that I can't do much about, together with his magic, that will be either with potions or proper rest
Spinach for blood. You safe. Heal soon.
*He purrs louder as she finishes her work, trying to soothe all the emotional discomfort he can.*
Yes. Potions. Rest. Both.
*He nuzzles against your face gently.*
Thank you for help. Means lot. Worry much for fae, so much blood....
That too, I'll make something with spinach later for him if it's needed
*Fae, now that he can move a bit more without agonizing pain, reaches out for his cane, hugging it tightly without nay intention to let it go now. He curls up a bit on you, he just wants to sleep and... Not think, now without constant pain there were... A lot of thoughts, head not shutting up. But first, fae with a bit of magic he had left makes the antennas and wings disappear, fully hylian once again... Or at least in most of his appereance*
I can imagine it... Alright, bring him over here, I have a place where he can take a nap without being bothered
*She walks to the back of the fountain, a hidden entrance being visible and covered by a light orange curtain*
Thank you. You help lots.
*He fully envelopes Evil Fairy again, purring and chiming softly. He's picked up a bunch of different sounds and he's trying to use them to soothe his brother.*
Thank you.
Am here. I watch. You safe.
*He drifts behind her, carrying you to the place Nemali shows. One thing is clear, he cares deeply for Evil Fairy, hopefully that can soothe Nemali a little.*
You safe. You rest now. Nice lady help and now you all heal.
*Inside the little space there was a hammock with blankets and pillows in it attached to the roof of the cave, a desk with some papers and coloring materials that don't look like they have been used in a while, a few chests probably with other stuff and a shelf with various books, most of them about history and tales*
The hammock should be comfortable enough, leave him there to rest... And come out when you're finished, alright? I need to make you a... Few questions.
*She leaves without saying another word, shushing a fairy that was peeking from the entrance of the apparent room*
*He wants to explore the room, but that's rude and not particularly important. So he simply moves you to the hanmock.*
I... yes. I will come once fae settle.
*He sets you in the hammock, covering you gently. He nuzzles against your face gently before leaving a little bit of his awareness with you and going to see Nameli. This is the first time he's able to split his presence, and it's strange but he isn't going to fully leave you until you are awake and coherent.*
*Green comes back out, cloud form still very much the case.*
Questions? Yes?
*Fae is barely awake when you put him on the hammock, the little bit of you that you left at least keeps him calm. Fae starts to purr, which doesn't last much when he seems to pass out, cane being hugged under the blankets*
*She seemed to be addressing some of the fairies that came to her, at seeing you she shushed them away*
Yes. Questions.
First off who exactly is that? Second is, why does he feel and somewhat looks like my son, when he clearly isn't?... I think, I doubt Link... Grew, that much in a few months
Third one, what is exactly up with that cane? That thing reeks of magic, the same that I found in faer, which also brings another question that will be after these three.
*He is quiet for a moment, trying to find the say to answer things in a mortal tounge... and also trying to find the answers.*
He is.... brother. Evil Fairy. Is a Link. Many Links... alternate of another Link I know. Fae is... has been away from his mother years. Not your son... he feel like your son?
*Green... Green may know your son.*
Cane is... tie to faer. Control fae, no touch cane. I bite one who touch. Chomp chomp.
*He has many questions. Many thoughts.*
*Evil Fairy? What kind of name was that... No it wasn't his actual name, it didn't taste like it is, then a nickname, but why evil...*
Oh right, the whole mess that this place is now, I kind of forgot about it. Yet...
Away from his mom? Who was faers mom? Although he feels like my son, I could recognize him anywhere
... Green. Where's my son? If you know this Evil Fairy you must know my son.
*This wasn't her son, her little buggy that she still doesn't understand why did he left so suddenly... But you might finally tell her where to find him, she misses her little buggy*
As in, it is part of him? If someone handles the cane they can... Control faer? I'm guessing it's also from where he gets his magic, it felt like it
I not know fae mother. Never met. Your son... Link? You say Link...
Fairy. Your son Fairy? Hair curl brown? Eyes big green? Young?... ten maybe?
*As he says it his magic starts searching for Fairy, the twili bond says he's alive and safe but Gresn has to be sure.*
Yes. Part of fae. Control him... I no see before. Firecracker no use stick... Is faerie trait?
*His Calatian is better than last time but he is still limited and misses a lot of grammar or connecting words.*
You... feel of Fairy. His magic on hammock...
*The last part is thinking out loud. You... hm... he should tell Fairy he's found you. And that you are aware of the fairy sellers and berries, that you are keeping your fountain truly safe.*
*come to think of it... didn't Green tell Nemali about the berries and fairy sellers and mention someone called Fairy being taken?*
Eleven, actually, it... It was his birthday a while ago... oh goddesses he probably spent it alone
That- That sounds like him, yes, freckles on his face? Loves sweets? Makes a fun amount of questions?
*Fairy is currently just walking around after meeting up someone, searching for someone? Ghostie doesn't seem to be with him at the moment*
No? As far as I know it isn't, I haven't heard of a being that an object can hold possession over them or be a part of them
Well, that's his room, haven't moved anything all this time aside from the necessary to avoid it getting too messy
... Wait. You keep calling Link Fairy, and last time you mentioned...
Did he get taken by those motherfuckers?!
Yes. Birthday. Eleven... I make cake soon.
That him! Good kid. Sweet one. Has friend bird.
*Green lets his magic brush against Fairy as a simple hello. He should visit Fairy soon. And Ghostie. For now he is here though.*
So... cane is... odd for faerie?
Fairy like same room. He miss you.
*Green darkens — growling lowly as old rage resurfaces. His memory is hazy, but he knows enough.*
Sellers catch? Yes. Keep? No. He free now. Tunnels explode, I do that.
He no like strangers. No trust.
His favorite is strawberry jelly if you do it, he'll love it
Friend bird? A shirou, maybe? He used to spend a lot of time playing with them...
*Fairy's own magic says hello, although it showed his anxiety of his surroundings as he got spooked at first*
Yeah, besides... He's not fully fairy or hylian, haven't you noticed? He feels like something else, at least a third of faer is pure magic, which is... Odd, never seen something like that
*Hearing that he misses her at least brings her some peace, knowing that he didn't left because of her... Still, he'll have to explain that*
And he's okay now, right? They didn't do anything to him? Didn't know he was a hybrid? They love catching hybrids and selling them to... Shady people
That... Makes sense, and maybe for the better...
*She wasn't that sure how to raise a hylian when she had her son, so she might have raised him like she would with her other children... And fairies are taught to not trust in anyone, but she tried to not fully isolate him... Probably a mistake, after learning this*
Strawberry jelly. Yes. Thank you. I make jelly cake.
Shirou! Yes! She look out him.
*Green's magic just drapes around Fairy for a bit. Not interfering but trying to help soothe the boy.*
I know. He half?... Third? Oh— thread change him. Lots of change...
*He softens a little.*
Fairy safe now. Free. Stay away from berries.
They no sell. I ask him they know hybrid later? No sell.
I watch. If hurt I go... he so so strong.
Glad that one of the shirous is keeping him company, he sure needs it...
*That seemed to work, it's like if someone else was with him, but this time it was good, it was less scary than being alone*
Thread? What do you mean by that? And I don't know if it is good that whatever he was combined with was... Fully raw magic and nothing else, actually it reminds me of something that I read about a long time ago... Something about beings fully made out of magic
*She sighs, her biggest fear is for the wrong people to learn about her son's genetic and ending up in one of those horrible places*
Thank goddesses... He's a good kid, he'll stay away from them
... Another thing I wanted to ask, and is again about your friend, well, "Evil Fairy"
He reeks of this... Magic, that is so wrong, all my children want him to leave because of it, the fae doesn't like it.
What's up with that? I suppose it has to do with the "thread" you mentioned before
*He makes a sound of agreement — this one sounds a little like bells.*
Shirou help Fairy.
*Green's magic is just glad it helps.*
*He is quiet for a moment, trying to figure out how to explain things.*
Magic Threads.... no... Thread Magic... get in your head, make you want more. Addiction. Whisper to magic havers, no Addiction make Thread bad feeling.
*He nods — though that just means his whole being moves up amd down once at this point.*
Yes. Fairy stay away. Smart boy.
I tell Fairy find you. He think you far.
*He just makes a soft sad sound.*
Thread... old magic. Has good use but corrupts. Like say before, addiction but whisper. Start... Calatia. Start... Chaos Magic? Not know sure. Thread show all making of everything.
I make shield? While fae rest keep Thread from children?
Evil Fairy... alone long time. Lose lots... angry and fear... but no hurt you or children.
*Of that, he is sure. Puck is a lot of things... has done things Green isn't really loving. But he doesn't usually just hurt people on sight as far as Green knows. And, if the thread magic gets too loud, Green will protect Nemali and the faeries. He doesn't think Puck would ever forgive faeself for hurting Nemali.*
Addiction... I think I might have an idea of what it does what it is, there were a few legends including them, kept the few books narrating those tales hidden, but...
Well, I'm not far anymore it seems, he can come back any time he wants
*She's quiet as you explain, her expression going neutral as you continue talking*
Corrupts... Whispers? It tells the user what to do? Or messes with their thoughts? It sounds like that
I would be grateful, even if he feels... If he feels like my son, he's not him, I... I don't trust faer alone with my children, even less with what you're telling me
Well, you're with him now, no? Fae must feel better if fae's not left alone again... I'm still wondering what was it that hurt him that badly, it didn't seem like the usual attack from a small animal or a casual hunter
Yes...
Fairy will see you, Fairy happy see you. Want ma say anything else Fairy?
*He just hums.*
Yes... starts control...
I make shield. Help keep Thread away.
Fae... he... Evil Fairy was son. Timeline split...
*He doesn't understand how to make you recognize Puck is safe and that he is your son... okay well maybe Puck isn't safe actually for the children... hmm...*
I stay. He call I come.
*His magic starts moving, forming a barrier to catch and stop thread magic before it leaves the area Puck is in.*
More question? Want know about Fairy?
Just... Tell him to remember to not overuse his magic? It has the bad habit of start acting up without him noticing even if he doesn't know how to control it yet
Thank you... They have been really stressed with what has been going on already, this just adds to that
Was... What happened for him to end up like that?
*She stayed quiet for a moment, the last thing she expected for today is now be involved with timeline nonsense*
Is he okay? Like, really okay? Still in one piece? Not sick or hurt or anything? And exactly where is he? A safe place I hope...
*The fact that your friend was apparently a version of her son was... Worrying her about her little buggy, more than she already was*
I tell no overuse magic.
Yes... I understand. Lots happen... Thread... uncomfortable when no corrupt.
*He's not sure how to answer that one. He's okay but he isn't... safe?*
Fairy... okay. Recover from sellers. He... Fairy travel, because hero of Hylia. I watch him, he very strong. Now? He travel to next triforce shard.
*He sounds so tired when he says the last part. Your son is a hero, and what a burden that is. But Green really does look out for him as best he can.*
Fairy still self. Still sweet, still kind. Skittish of people after sellers, no thread for Fairy though.
It stinks, in a not funny way, it's... Fae magic is already a bit chaotic and playful, but this one reeks of control, I don't like the implications
*She sighs, yeah he was... A hero now, he wasn't even twelve and already going around for hero duties?*
I'm relieved that at least one god is watching over him constantly... Wait he's going for the triforce? Last time I knew that thing was hidden in different dungeons, so he's... He'll be alright, with you, I hope...
*She knew about these dungeons from hearing about them when a stray fairy took rest in her fountain, they're not that friendly according to their experiences*
He's always been a sweetie, I'm glad that hasn't changed... And I hope that thing stays away from him
*No offense to your friend, but... She doesn't wish for her son to be like faer*
Yes... fae magic much nicer. Thread magic... not nice.
*He darkens, but hums.*
Fairy be okay. I watch. I know other versions. Fairy be self long time. Dungeons... hard... but reward.
Thread no like tri-force. Fairy be safe from thread.
*Puck doesn't have the triforce to protect him... Green loves all his brothers very much and he'd do almost anything for the.... but he doesn't want Fairy to be okay Puck either.*
I'll trust on you with that, I just... Wish to know how to prevent him from... But if you say he'll be okay, then it must be true
Well, then it's convenient if he's gathering the pieces, maybe that'll keep the influence away, not that he would try that in the first place... I hope
*From the room, there's a surge of thread magic that only you can feel right now thanks to the barrier you made, apparently Puck is awake and already doing something, although it doesn't seem to be to anyone or anything else*
