Visiting Rats

[*Er_Nano_Infame]

she doesnt waste time to offer : ::we's strong, mayybe we can carry yuh all away fast and far where yuh seven want, now, ahu? then we can talk with more calm, yus? :: smiles hopeful

[*Selebius]

Suddenly they are all over her, the cats crawling over her body, taking hold in her clothes, clinging to her.

::Move. Fast. It is coming::

[*Er_Nano_Infame]

shuddering briefly at the crawly crawlin, she uses one of the different items to provide haste for a few time to dash away lead by the rats , rushing over things and leaping above cracks and pits
::hang on tight yuh lots! and tell us where to go!::

[*Selebius]

She feels something in her mind, an odd tugging and she somehow knows where to go, navigating the tunels with frightening speed and precision.

Down a chute they go and there is water around her as she falls into a deep pool or well- the water cold and fresh, not the usual, putrid sludge.

But when Wuhi swims up at the surface the rats leave her to join the hundreds that surround that pool- small eyes staring at her.

[*Er_Nano_Infame]

blinking surprised but maybe not too much at the miriads of rats, and eyeing where the rats she carried went, possibly wading to shore

::we sees this is a safe place for yuh. now, can we talk about what is happening so we can finds way to help, or yuh think that overmind will chase us here too?:: looks around at the miriads of rats nodding, trying to ignore the possible BAD situation she might find herself in

[*Er_Nano_Infame]

::how do they further the possession? and...any kind of magic and madness appeal them?::

::is there a way to remove a parasite from someone without harming the host?::

::''poison it''? with what?::

[*Selebius]

::It is safe here. They cannot come here yet. We(I) are(am) not yet corrupted.::

Small bodys scuttling around in the darkness, crawling over each other as they make space so Wuhi can get out of the water, some brushing over her legs, crawling over her as well.

::You want to talk? You want to know what we(I) know?::

The voice so much stronger now, thousands of voices echoing in the woman's head.

[*Er_Nano_Infame]

she holds her head trying to bear with the force of the voice(s)
::yes, tell us...and meybbe lower the volume, would yuh? ::

[*Selebius]

:: Something is growing in the Gatehouse. We cannot talk to it, we cannot control it, we cannot get close to it. Soon it will spread we fear, will create cysts at other places.
There are two of them- the possessed and the controlled. ::

[*Er_Nano_Infame]

::yuh dont know what it is then?--- why you cant talk to it?--- yuh said 's an overmind, so the more people it gets the more powerful it becomes?--- does it capture anyone or it favors certain individuals above others?--- what was that ghostly insect yuh killed before? ho did yuh kill it?--- what differencies there are between controlled and possessed?--- yuh know how we can weaken the overmind?--- how do its powers warp and change the environment?--- how did it got in the cage?--- yuh how they can open portals in siggil?---::

the long row of questions, or images of questions, that swirl in wuhi's mind in few moments, not necessarily needing to word them or formulate explicitly in her mind for them to be grasped by the voices in her buzzing head
