Shion. OTA. Island Report 1

[Shion is quite subdued during the Storytellers lecture. His hands are bandaged, though his fingers are free. They are scraped and cut, bruised and swollen. The art that Connor had done was pretty wrecked, it had been chipped anyways but it was worse now, not much colour left at all. That saddened Shion more than the pain honestly.

He listened to a few stories before it came round to him. Storytelling was a thing he had never done before. A thing he was not sure he could do. Stories were written and told by great people, people with great imaginations, creative people. Not him.

But they have been told to tell stories, Shion's not sure if there are punishments for not complying. He doesn't want to find out. He can report at least, Reno taught him that.]


I arrived on these islands not long after the rebirth of the sun. There were others who awoke with me, including Akko, Seto and Dagger, who I had met previously in a dream. We traveled towards the Jormun camp where we were met warmly and given food. I met Ignis who I had also met in a dream. I also met Asch though I first mistook him to be someone else, someone I knew before. [Because Asch and Asch are different people. Shion needs to remember that. He can't mistake them and treat this Asch the same as he did the last, he needs to respect that his new ally is a different person, or he will be no worse than those on Asch's homeworld.]

I was reunited with my sister Xion. We learned about fireworks from Tim and how the monsters were chased off by light and heat. We also spoke to Prompto and met Coco, he is a chocobo. [His voice is lighter there, less serious. Coco is seriously cute.]

After Monsun disappeared me and Xion moved into a new home. [Casually glossing over the exact reasons for that] We have been working to repair the damage to the structure of the hut. So far our experiments with leaves and vines have been working though we will need to come up with a more permament solution, especially for the large holes in the roof.

I explored some of the island, including the temple, which Ceej told me was a good meeting place due to the amount of foot traffic and the writing rock. I also visited the room of drawings. Whilst using the mana pool there I was taken to one of the islands in the sky. I did not learn all that much there except that it uses memory to form itself, there is some corruption that appears and the land restores itself during the night. At one point my mind was effected, leading me to hurt others... [He is quiet for a moment, he needs to find Ignis and apologise. He's not sure how the man will take it. In the tower forgiveness for such things had come fast, everyone knew that they could not be in control of their own actions all the time, that an experiment or game could turn them against each other. But here... he was not sure how common such things were.]

The effects faded after a day. [He stops there. His vision and what had happened afterwards, he's not sure he can report on those.]
