"Even the children? Even cookies too young to know any better? If you're supposed to be better than all of us, why are you sinking down to our level?"

[𝐆𝐎𝐃𝐒 𝐖𝐑𝐀𝐓𝐇 𝐖𝐀𝐒 𝐔𝐍𝐃𝐄𝐒𝐄𝐑𝐕𝐄𝐃 .ᐟ @beliefdenied]

“ there are no innocent , all cookies lie , all cookies steal , all cookies hurt others , all cookies are but sinners , this is but a judgement day “

[۟ @compasscalled]

". . . I'm sorry. That.. I don't know that pain, I can't even pretend like I do. I never lost a child. But not every single cookie is to blame for all of these problems. You'd crumble the innocents too?"

[𝐆𝐎𝐃𝐒 𝐖𝐑𝐀𝐓𝐇 𝐖𝐀𝐒 𝐔𝐍𝐃𝐄𝐒𝐄𝐑𝐕𝐄𝐃 .ᐟ @beliefdenied]

“ the horrid beast shadow milk killed my beloved son , but before all that , cookie kind has been hurting earthbread for eons and generations of war , famine , crime , betrayals , murder , etc , they are a plague amongst nature “

he gave a bit of a cautious look to the other

❝ two days after the jellywalker stuff ?! Ooooo , i sense a bad omen coming on guys ! Aren't you excited !❞

"All their..? What.. happened, exactly? What did they-- What did we do?"

He slowly, tentatively approaches closer.

[𝐆𝐎𝐃𝐒 𝐖𝐑𝐀𝐓𝐇 𝐖𝐀𝐒 𝐔𝐍𝐃𝐄𝐒𝐄𝐑𝐕𝐄𝐃 .ᐟ @beliefdenied]

“ i merely am returning the favor to cookie kind , for all their transgressions “

he let out an echoing scoff as he moved to lean back against the mountain with a heartless gaze

[۟ @compasscalled]

Don't worry guys I'll just ask the old tree nicely to turn the weather back. I've got this 👍

[۟ @compasscalled]

[ooc: odysseus going to confront circe ahh interaction between addy and mt]

[۟ @compasscalled]

Oh. Oh...

He's realizing very suddenly just how much danger he had put himself in.

"I.. Ahem- I don't mean to intrude or anything, but.. The weather seems to be a bit weird at the moment, and I have to ask. . . did you do something?"

[𝐆𝐎𝐃𝐒 𝐖𝐑𝐀𝐓𝐇 𝐖𝐀𝐒 𝐔𝐍𝐃𝐄𝐒𝐄𝐑𝐕𝐄𝐃 .ᐟ @beliefdenied]

the tired tree moved slowly to bend slightly and gaze upon thr tiny cookie who was nothing but the size of an insect to him , slow blinking occasionally

it seemed the adventurer had the trees attention

“ what “

his voice echoed and boomed with no emotion

[۟ @compasscalled]

He lets out a low whistle.

"Yikes. . ."

That had to hurt. Maybe the faerie was right...

[ʙᴜᴛᴛᴇʀ ʀᴏʟʟ @BAK3RS_JOURNAL]

Well now you can see example of what happen.

[ Well he was right. From last time Adventurer cookie seen them, Butter Roll didn't had half of his face nearly missing, not saying about leg ]

You are lucky she kept you away. You would die once again knowing you.

[۟ @compasscalled]

"Blackberry kept me inside the whole time. Didn't even tell me what was going on. .. That was smart, I probably would've gone out if I knew."

[۟ @compasscalled]

Oh, but that couldn't be..? The Millennial Tree? No, certainly not, right? And yet, the realization that something was well and truly amiss did not stop the explorer from heading off in that direction, once more running right into the danger.

"Hello up there! Can you hear me?"

[𝐆𝐎𝐃𝐒 𝐖𝐑𝐀𝐓𝐇 𝐖𝐀𝐒 𝐔𝐍𝐃𝐄𝐒𝐄𝐑𝐕𝐄𝐃 .ᐟ @beliefdenied]

the very large spirit sat upon the mountain , his gaze empty his heart empty , he contemplated shrouding earthbread in his roots again , just as he had done during the jellywalker ending , he contemplated all the ways he could snuff out life . . . the temptation was there

[۟ @compasscalled]

The blonde shivered with the sudden weather change.

"What in the...? I thought it was supposed to be Spring right about now."

[۟ @compasscalled]

"I.. I dunno. Just, something! Help out the survivors, probably.. Ain't exactly a chemist so a cure'd be beyond me."

[۟ @compasscalled]

"Yeah, well.. During this whole jellywalker mess, Blackberry kept me inside. Didn't even tell me what was going on. If I'd known, I could've come out and helped."

Which.. is likely why he was kept unaware.

[ʙᴜᴛᴛᴇʀ ʀᴏʟʟ @BAK3RS_JOURNAL]

A nice. Long. While.
You didn't changed, still looking energetic and ready for everything^^.

[ooc: THE TIMING OF THIS I'M--]

[𝐆𝐎𝐃𝐒 𝐖𝐑𝐀𝐓𝐇 𝐖𝐀𝐒 𝐔𝐍𝐃𝐄𝐒𝐄𝐑𝐕𝐄𝐃 .ᐟ @beliefdenied]

spare the weak ones a painless death ,

he wasn’t even aware of what ones he killed , he was tired , his eyes were heavy as both the winter storm made his wood lethargic and the curse upon himself to slumber kept tempting to shove its way to him
. . .

[۟ @compasscalled]

"Agh, but I could'a..!"

Yeah? What could you have done, Addy?

"I could've done SOMETHING at least."

[۟ @compasscalled]

. . . 💧

"Hah.. Sure has.."

[ʙᴜᴛᴛᴇʀ ʀᴏʟʟ @BAK3RS_JOURNAL]

Adventurer, it's been a while.^^

@sacredbranches [ooc: maybe not outright murdered but very severely injured at worst (bc i don't wanna work out how he's gonna revive rn)]
