"Well, that's a relief. We can't mistakenly hurt her now. Um, no offense there.
So, about the Grey Plane, can a Spirit -us- travel there willingly?Are you unique in the ability to seal minds and communicate directly with the spirits of others?Riiiiiight, cash, riiiiiiight.
So, hello I guess Hat.How is it possible for you to talk to us directly?I am wondering the same thing as my two sane companions. Also, Are you or were you human?I am most certainly human, I would name what nation I'm from, but its unlikely that any of you are familiar with it, it's long since faded from the memory of man or even most Spirits. Every one of the special souls has access to certain super-human powers, it comes from the fact that we are slightly separated from the worlds so we can ignore some of their rules, some of peoples abilities are stronger than others.
Mine happens to be any thing to do with the mind, among other things I am the only human here that can communicate directly to the Grey Plane and other's Spirits without their companions permission. I can read minds, but its fairly difficult and I prefer not to, besides it's an invasion of other's privacy.
There is one other here who has the same powers as me, but they can hardly be called human, and there is little that they can't do. There may be someone locked in the Caves that has similar powers, but so far we haven't discovered any that can.
As for the ability to travel to the Grey Plane freely, you most certainly do have the ability, in fact you aren't even bound to Isolde in any special way, there are certain benefits for staying with the person you first formed from, but you are by no means bound to her, the only thing stopping you from leaving right now would be the fact that you aren't quite strong enough yet to survive the journey through the open spaces of the Grey Plane that it would require.Isolde watched him pour the tea. "I guess it's nice to meet you Hat. Where am I?"
"You're in the living room of the library here that also happens to be my house, I'm going to assume you want orange pekoe," he said pulling a small handmade teabag out of one of the pots and putting it into the cup, "Do you remember any of what happened before?"
"A- a little, mostly just arriving here, then talking to Appollon, I think his name was, and then-" Suddenly she stops and puts her hand on her forehead.
"There, there" Hat said, "You don't need to worry, while your in this house you don't need to worry about the pain again, and you'll learn to control it soon enough. Do you have any hard feelings for the Spirits?"
"No, I don't think that they meant any harm, most of them didn't seem deliberately harmful."
Oh, the OOC thread would be more for speculation on the plot and discussion on your part, I'm certainly not going to reveal anything plot-wise. Heheheh. It isn't needed right now, but in a couple of updates you might be wanting it. Also, seeing people speculate on the plot and story helps tell me how I'm doing with the pace that I'm trying to keep with this game, I don't want to reveal more than is necessary too fast, but I don't want to slow it down too much.
As for the inevitable question of: Can we become the Spirit of another person? Yes, you can, just not yet, and as Hat said, there are disadvantages to switching patrons. It might become important plot-wise later though.
