[🔷Blue Chaggie and Label AU🔷] After an incident at the last extermination, Vaggi wakes up in an unfamiliar place.

.

I still haven't decided how I want to present stories for this AU, so here's a foray into comics territory.

Lucifer and Charlie literally built the hospital for Vaggi, since no one in Heaven had ever been injured like she had before. Sera had quite a bit of explaining to do about why a private hospital just appeared overnight, but she couldn't stop them.

In the linked post Vaggi already has her blue eye, and as you can see that is being retconned. See you on the next page, coming soon ish!

Supplemental: Magic Classifications

Crops under the cut

Information narrated / gathered while Occtis, Vaelus, Gaya Seremai and Dr Talter went through the Tachonis tents

Narrated generally: -

The excavation began 4 years ago;

Place was abandoned in a hurry, leaving letters, arcane texts, potions.

Information for Vaelus on a 22, who was looking for Occtis' name, the purpose of the place, and names generally, in the Military Tent (MiliTent tm): -

The tent belongs to a Captain of the Tachonis family who was likely a Vassal Knight;

It describes having lost the trail of an artifact concerning a Celestial called Olbalad, saying that the trail had gone cold in Venatus. - Brennan's summary of journal entries made by a Lord of Tachonis, possibly Occtis' Uncle;

"I fear that the drowned men may have beaten us to the punch on this one." - note from someone unspecified;

"Our most recent findings were from about 2.5 months ago. The final experiment was a failure and wasted our last supplies of ossement." - missive with the head of the site;

"Final experiment a partial success but largely failure. It is my opinion that Tertia's innate gifts and connection to the Tenebral Reaches thwarted the grafting of the calcidial prosthesis. I will miss her dearly." - Journal of the Tachonis Lord. (This was actually the last thing Vaelus discovered, moved here because it relates to the above bullet);

The Halovars have proven a dead end. Some inherent power of their sorcery immunises them against the procedure. - Brennan's summary of a letter from an unstated person;

"A new source of calcidion has revealed itself, but we need to move quickly. The Cloak is moving faster than anticipated. If the obelisk holds fast in Tannesar, does the sacrifice itself need to happen in Tannesar?" - Letter from Primus Tachonis;

"The risks may be necessary. We cannot long keep our forces hidden outside the Orchard and we can't chance the Sea Door closing." - Separate letter from Primus Tachonis - informal, scrawled.

Discoveries by Occtis on a 30, focused on the potions and associated instructions, and items that were potentially overlooked and may be useful to the party, in the Occult Tent (OcculTent tm): -

(1) A map of what's been excavated so far, describing the following: -

Central chamber - where the Tachonis discovered all the magical necessary to do this

Deva Vindicta - the Celestial that the Tachonis are trying to create

Chamber of the Apotheon Vindicta - later described as a central chamber.

Hall of the Demon Guardians - what the Tachonis are calling the area that leads to the Chamber of Apotheon Vindicta

Sepulchral Veil - deep beneath the Chamber of the Apotheon Vindicta (last thing Occtis discovered, Brennan specifically noted the 30, moved up as it's position is relative to the AV at third bullet)

Bridge over a subterranean lake leading to the Apotheotic Obelisk

Funereal and preparatory chambers, a small area is currently being used for day to day life;

The Creature's dwelling-place. (Brennan later uses creature to refer to a Deva Vindicta but then corrects to the DV being the Celestial they're trying to create.)

(2) Two doses of petrification anti-venom, and associated info: -

Accompanied by documentation from House Seremai

Occtis recalls that they're used to counter Basilisk petrification

Gaya confirms they're associated with Basilisks and that her house makes the antidote.

What the Formatting Means

italics = information transcribed from the recording
