Pleroma | Voice;

[bearshermark]

[There comes a faint hesitance and nervousness as a prelude to the voice that follows]

Has anyone discovered.. changes to themselves since coming here?

[A beat of held breath, considers leaving it at that, then gives in on a sigh]

There are leaves—like ivy—around my shard. Somehow, they seem to have grown from my skin.

[That's pretty weird and not-normal, right?]

Comments

[passio]

[ the mention of purification gets his attention. that word specifically. ]

Have you tried?

[bearshermark]

I wouldn't know how to. I wonder if there might be some sort of purification ritual to counteract the one we were subjected to. Or some sort of holy water for the Kenoma liquid at least..

[passio]

[ it’s not something dextera had considered. the kenoma had been forcibly induced, but who’s to say the pleroma couldn’t be in kind? ]

I don’t know. There isn’t anything like that where I’m from, but maybe there’s one here. Maybe we could create it.

[bearshermark]

Tehri said it's possible to change, so there must be a way.

[passio]

The woman in Greentruth? I haven’t spent much time there.

[ he feels… out of place, maybe, around people with so much conviction. ]

[bearshermark]

Yes. She seems rather wise.

How is Godsblood? I haven't been yet.

[passio]

Confusing. Stressful. I think I would be happier in Greentruth.

[ and yet… ]
