At Hospital "I've seen several such creatures on our last outing. I've observed them using some kind of language, tactical planning including calling for re-enforcement, a tactical retreat, and threat assessment. I've been wanting to perform an autopsy on one of them, but the corpses seem to vanish shortly after expiration. Out of curiosity, do you have observational data on what happens when a subject is terminated after the onset of the affliction, but before the initial Lockjaw transformation is completed?"

At around this point Mona noticed Shara's new companion. Mona makes a gesture with her hand, patting the air in front of her and says.
"Looks like someone made a new friend. I didn't know you were into symbiosis! Is it okay if I pet?"
Mona uses Analysis on the animal that Shara is riding
From the looks of it, the chimera is part, human head, dog's body, scorpion tail and cat's leg. The tears from the chimera face didn't stop pouring ever since shara looked at the weird pet cage.

"I feel like I could kill all of Tuhan's creation with this new power! I have achieved my goal here. Reading is not much of a spectator sport as they say. I'm afraid I must head back to the arena to test my new ability. Should you learn anything of interest I will be happy to hear of it later. Auf Wiedersehen!"
After trading goodbyes with the angel dude, Jonas heads off towards the Training Grounds. He pulls out both his guns and launches a new barrage at the dummy, attempting to gauge what exactly he gained by being a Harbinger of death.
Nanashi keep stay on Training Grounds for a while to train.
"Ah yes, you are the new girl correct? A demi-human as I am unless I missed my mark, and as foreign as the rest of us. Pleasure to meet you."
((Kinda important OOC note for anyone not on the discord: Training Grounds giving new abilities was a typo. Training grounds can be used to upgrade already acquired skills, to actually get new skills check out the Library or Sanctum.))
Jonas tried a second time to test his gun barrage skills against the dummy. This time however. He sense a presence of blood lust from inside his body. It's like telling him to destroy and kill. A dark energy surrounds him and his tool of killing. As he aim towards the dummy. A black trail can be seen as he kept shooting his gun towards the dummy.

At Tuhan's sanctumAethyrion heads to Tuhan's sanctum, if the nun is there he will tell her about his experience with meeting God in his dream and ask her about the sleep coins that appeared in his pocket after waking up.
┌──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
Nun "So you developed your rhama beliefs, Good mister aethyrion good! May tuhan's blessing be with you! If you're curious, there's someone
like you who practiced rhama branch through the method of sleeping too. Hamlet! There's someone like you here! Can you help him
out by explaining your rhama belief?"
└──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
From one of the bench in the sanctum, a guy suddenly stood up from his sleeping position. It's like he's asleep but he's awake at the same time... He's talking to aethyrion while he's asleep!? He look a bit stiff when he stood up to greet aethyrion.

Hamlet "Hoahm... so you want to learn Rhama eh beginners.."

Nun "It's just one person... hamlet dear.."

Hamlet "Oh right... Sorry! You know i can't see because.. As you can see i'm still sleeping. So Mr Aethyrion. Let me tell you something! The
rhama belief manifest from our daily life and activities that become a part of our hobby. After being passionate with it, Tuhan will grant
us the power to manifest that hobby into something greater! That coins you got there isn't going to be useful to us unless you give
value to that currency! For example, the belief of rhama that manifest as hobby requires a medium to grant it it's power. One of the
rhama worshiper in this town like Dr.Scratch!
His hobby is exercising and getting himself in shape. He applied his rhama belief to that hobby. And then he used his sweat that came from
his body as a medium to manifest the rhama energy within him to heal people. Another example is Cynthia from Still alive inn! She has her
hobby which is cleaning up the messes in her inn. She use that hobby with rhama believe, she applied the manifestation rhama energy
to her inn. And those who rested at her inn receive a perk that made them healthier when they woke up!
For me i applied my sleeping habit with rhama belief and use my own body as a medium. Thus allowing me both to be asleep and awake
simultaneously. This is how i maintain my control and train my sleeping ability in order to connect myself closer to tuhan.
Now to explain what the coin is Sir aethyrion, You can give value to your coins as you see fit. Your hobby or your way of contacting rhama
god is by sleeping right? You can spend that coin and maybe transmute it into a real nickel or other metal? or you will spend that coin to
tuhan and use it to help your friend? The choice is yours really, you can give that currency a value through your own needs by contacting
rhama god in your sleep. You need to control your hobby too though! Be careful of sleeping too much and entering limbo and get stuck
there. You don't want that."
