#umbron

for context the working main antagonists of cursed are the fates, Genus (birth, their symbols being the ladybug and sheild), Virtus (life, their symbols being the mantis and sword), and Mortus (Death, their symbols being the fly and hemlock). The primarily active fates in the story being Virtus and Mortus, as they are the ones most involved in the prophecy. Its also somewhat worth noting they serve (primarily) the primordial Santik of time and prophecy, (secondarily) Protus who created that of their domain (people), and (tertiarily) their creator: Garatin, progenitor of the gods.

so, to the scene! ive had this idea for while where after jasper comes back with whatever cure for umbron i land on (in the outline it's listed as "Virtus' wand"), and as she arrives at the house, the door is open, and out flies a single robber fly. dread fills him. it could be nothing. no it HAD to be nothing. he walks in to see Artie sitting beside Umbron's bed. Their aura is gone. No. No. No. ∆rtemis turns to look at the star as she flickers. suddenly after processing, Jasper rushes to the bed, lays [the rod] on Umbron. all is silent. its aura does not return. No. Verbal, this time. yelling. screaming. begging for anything else to be the case. crying. consoling. nothing. running. lashing out. damage. rubble, everywhere. light.

chaos.

The ground opens up.
