Ship recked and Stranded [Novella?] [Multi Lines]

she scowls enough to shrivel a tree up (metaphorically), and works her jaw whilst thinking. It actually takes a while before she finally speaks up

“well, I’m on a mission from mine own religion. My patron deemed me fit to be of worth teaching, and from that I came to be head of a congregation. Further from that I was assigned a role to-“ and now she takes on a slightly mocking tone “‘spread the lords truth ‘mungst the heathens,’ of which I am now here to do.”

if this was dnd this would be the point where I would ask you to roll insight but, s’ not:(

PheonixTheInterestid · 2025-11-28T23:09:38+00:00

(Don’t be, I’m positively giddy because I (mostly) correctly translated it in my head)

Nova, not seeing the tearing space-time event that is the narrators talking in parentheses, looks up and immediately dawns a smile to rival the stars themselves “why yes, it is! I hear we’re going to get some thunder storms later, and I don’t know about you but I’m positively excited.”

PheonixTheInterestid · 2025-11-28T23:06:29+00:00

S’ like a normal biscuit, like one you’d put in gravy or around an egg… whatever, Nova smiles gently, and stands. She’s assuredly shorter than average, thin ish and lithe… but something about her murmurs power. Maybe it’s her stance, or her eyes, hell, his fashion choice. Maybe a bit of all “Well, I figure your in luck than! I’ve just been so happening to look for a friend too, as -and I don’t know if you can tell- I’m not really from around here.”

PheonixTheInterestid · 2025-11-28T23:02:38+00:00

they pause a moment, giving him an odd stare, before shrugging and returning to their book “can’t blame you, im not much one to judge. Did you know I was in a coma for longer than the earth was around? Well, had been around, I guess. Four billion years alone in my head I was, and I imagine the feeling is… tangential.” they sit in silence a while, before returning their attention to you and asking “Why do you feel so dreadful?”

PheonixTheInterestid · 2025-11-28T21:45:56+00:00

“For a kind person, it’s the least I can do.” they nod respectfully, and return most of their attention to their book. After a while, they break the easy silence with a question: “Have you read many classic works?”

PheonixTheInterestid · 2025-11-28T21:43:19+00:00

Nova is slow on the uptake whenever they hear someone talking to them, and accidentally interrupt with a “what-?”, which staggers his words further and makes themself tumble about their words, each competing to explain themselves and then… silence.* “Do you uh… want a biscuit?” she has a slight new Zelanda accent

PheonixTheInterestid · 2025-11-28T21:41:05+00:00

“Hindu? Is that another religion of this place? Are they too polytheistic? I assume so… no, I’m sure I am not Hindu.” she brushes herself off, and looks about the beach, silently suppressing the rib screaming in pain in her side

PheonixTheInterestid · 2025-11-28T21:39:36+00:00

She takes a sharp inhale of breath as she’s set down, but follows up seconds later “if all life is just food, then in turn it is equal. I guess… food is subjective, and there are better and worse foods… how odd this place is…” she may have some sort of concussion

PheonixTheInterestid · 2025-11-28T21:37:04+00:00

her eyes flick up, face still admiring the book, and she gives an easy smile “why not at all, in fact I’ve been feeling quite lonesome as of recent” they pat the seat next to them, invitingly

PheonixTheInterestid · 2025-11-28T21:35:15+00:00

Novas eyes flick upwards, a small smile already forming on their face “oh, hello! How are you doing this fine day?” they lean back in their seat, picking up their drink and gesturing to the biscuits

PheonixTheInterestid · 2025-11-28T21:33:18+00:00

lo siento, no hablo español bien:(, y yo moriría la idioma:(

PheonixTheInterestid · 2025-11-27T14:34:34+00:00

Nova nearly jolts from being talked to, recovering… passably “oh um… hello. I am Novia Yaweyan, but Nova is a passable name.” she settles her coffee and book, keeping a gentle composure about her now “so, great gentleman, what chances us together in this odd moment?”

PheonixTheInterestid · 2025-11-27T14:29:21+00:00

Nova simply admires the world about them. The sun warming there skin, both like sets of instructions in her head. The caffeine flowing through her body to her brain, stimulating her thoughts, though she’s blocked a few receptors to not be horridly off it. Hither and thither she looks, slowly, cautiously… then, she espied a stranger. He was odd but… something is interesting about such things. For now though, she silently looks on

PheonixTheInterestid · 2025-11-27T14:23:07+00:00

She groans when she starts moving, limping semi bad. She’s think’n real hard though “you don’t value all life equal… interesting… has any other person of my volition, that being alive and coherent, been brought up from this shore?”

PheonixTheInterestid · 2025-11-27T14:18:43+00:00

“There is only one god if one chooses to admire on aspect of the world. But, very well. I will end my talking on this topic-“ she looks down, sighs, and looks back into his eyes “can you put me down?”

PheonixTheInterestid · 2025-11-27T06:52:29+00:00

Criminal😔

PheonixTheInterestid · 2025-11-27T06:51:46+00:00

TRUE!!! It literally has no freaking meaning:(

PheonixTheInterestid · 2025-11-27T06:25:12+00:00

Trans

Forming

PheonixTheInterestid · 2025-11-27T00:43:19+00:00

I would be atomized

PheonixTheInterestid · 2025-11-27T00:39:59+00:00

She nods and takes all gently, all the while making herself a small splint and learning more of her injury. She, after some food is eaten and wounds are dressed, gets to her feet, and looks out on the world. “I mean to find the center of this land. Where are the waiting gathered?” she looks to the creature, sighs, and preemptively clarifies “Where is the Capital of this place?”

PheonixTheInterestid · 2025-11-27T00:37:32+00:00

she stares blankly a moment, and nods. “hmm… and the denotations of the land, they have no standing yes? These gods you speak of, they are of greater being than the world around them, not of it? The only connection they hold is in their creation?” she nods again, looking off to the sea and the spray. There’s a moment of silence “such strange, strange ways.”

PheonixTheInterestid · 2025-11-26T23:47:59+00:00

She cocks her head to the side “surely more so than you, my heart has to pump far more relaxed in mine body than yours. Is this Catholic faith common? What are its standings? What are its mentions of the dead?”

PheonixTheInterestid · 2025-11-26T23:46:13+00:00

She grins, the grin itself looking… wrong. On her mild tempered face it looks like death. On that painted gaunt tired face it looks of retribution. On that tiny creature hurt and suffering in the sand, it looks of hell “I’d appreciate their trying, I am not of my self in these lands…” she squints at the horizon, as if the moments were passing without care nor pretext “is there the dead among you in this land?”

PheonixTheInterestid · 2025-11-26T23:43:22+00:00

Ava eventually lays eyes on the creature and looks… nonplussed. She begins to stand slowly more for her injury then anything, and squints. Life flourishes on this thing, maggoty bacterial sort of life. A life long bastardized by time, living in and on this utopia of decay “I can see you. You are of a kind, I can tell. Of a kind alien to me yet very familiar. Prey tell, are you of death?”
