Cobalt's Heart - session 4

[we_meet_again]

I carry you with me across these
barren lands, stretched dry and dark between
sanctuaries of kindness.

Generous with your warmth,
you have shown me
a path to guide my heavy legs and stumbling heart.

Generous with your patience,
you have shown me
how lucky I was to have something worth mourning.

[It's really peaceful here. The flowers sway in a breeze, and it's quiet. Lights twinkle from inside the house, friendly and inviting.]

[It seems like a good place to clean up and take a rest.]

[You hear some noises from inside the house and then the door opens to reveal a dark-haired woman. When she sees you, her face lights up.]



Moxie!

Oh, what a wonderful surprise! I'm so glad you were able to make it!

Re: Power Plant

[nutsandrevolts]

Uh.





Who're you?

Re: Power Plant

Forgive me, dear — I'm Shen's mother. I recognize you from the photos he hung on our wall. And he speaks of you often! You've really made quite an impression on him, you know?

Re: Power Plant

[nutsandrevolts]

"Shen"?

Re: Power Plant

[we_meet_again]

Ascensuri. His friends call him "Cobalt" these days. Or "Colby," or sometimes "Pally."

Re: Power Plant

[nutsandrevolts]

Ah.

He's gatherin' up too many names. . .

Re: Power Plant

[we_meet_again]

I'm sure he'll be thrilled to see you. Would you like to come in?

[she gestures for her to come inside.]
