Wake me up, please
I just want to wake up. At this point, I'm just doing as the dream wants me to do. Except even that doesn't seem to work. I stepped through Lady Lunara's portal and...just ended up back in her forest again. She seemed as surprised as me. And Gabriel seemed stronger: I have memories of being on a ship and making him take an oath of some kind.
Then she told me I might be dead, but that she was not sure, I think it was that moment I decided all this was a bad dream. I mean, how could I be dead. I'm here, talking and walking. This is ridiculous.
She then made 3 portals; one red, one blue and one green. She told me to choose. I HATE CHOICES!
Silla was in the red portal ... and she said was not alive. AHHHH I HATE THIS DREAM!
Then, to make things worse Ezra appeared in the blue portal, And Lunara said had to choose to try and save one of them!
I am not letting either of them die!!!! So while Lunara left (and said she was off to...die), I tried to get Sillia and Ezra to touch the spear. I thought that if I did that, I could save them both!
They both refused, so I decided to be more stubborn than both of them and refused to choose, knowing that we would all die in this stupid dream if they continued to be stubborn. As both of them realised that I was being serious, they raised their hands BUT STILL REFUSED TO GRAB THE SPEAR. So I just made sure it touched both their hands...and we were sent to a new place. Imily was in this...new place.
Sillia was explaining to Imily that she had "lost her body" and was just a soul. Then Imily said he didn't know who I was! WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON!!! Lady Sillia said she needed to go to a place called "haven" to get her soul back in her body. Haven and Oathkeep seem to be connected. Imily even said that she was DEAD! But she is talking and I can touch her. Does that mean I'm dead also ?
While they were talking nonsense, I got a better look at the crystal. It looked like the one in the dream with the Archfae, that big flying creature with horns. Apparently Sillia did not want me to say that in front of Imily. He seemed interested that the Archfae would talk to a half elf.
So apparently Lady Sillia needs a vessel. They are not using the spear again; Gabriel is using it! Imily suggested cloning Sillia... and he needs flesh. I'm barely following what is going on, but I don't like it. Please say this is just a big horrible nightmare and that I'm going to wake up.
I can't take much more. I think Ezra saw that I was panicking and tried calming me by giving me a hug; I think that stopped me panicking because I just started fearing for my life. SINCE WHEN DOES EZRA GIVE HUGS!
Imily came back with Lady Alta and, they found another solution; Lady Alta is going to give some of her flesh to create a vessel for Sillia. It was the most horrific sight. She just let him carve a bit of flesh from her stomach. And it seemed to not be the first time he had done this. There were 3 other pock marks.
Someone, wake me up, please.

The major events and journals in Arael's history, from the beginning to today.
Wake me up, please
I just want to wake up. At this point, I'm just doing as the dream wants me to do. Except even that doesn't seem to work. I stepped through Lady Lunara's portal and...just ended up back in her forest again. She seemed as surprised as me. And Gabriel seem...
03:52 pm - 10.02.2022Dreams, truth and madness
I’m sure I’m going crazy. I don’t know what is real or not any more. Am I going insane? How can I differentiate truth from madness? One minute we were in a boat in the Dreadlands, then I found myself being an orc leader. Not just pretending, but as ...
10:20 am - 07.02.2022Soul in a spear and a veil of blue
I have Gabriel's soul...only problem is that we have to keep him in my spear. Apparently my spear is one of the most powerful weapons in the world, or something like that, and only it can keep Gabriel's soul safe until we can find his body. He's sleeping ...
04:30 pm - 22.01.2022Those that cast shadows, die by our song
We managed to make it to the meeting place moments before an army of dead people arrived. They were dead, but walking...We assumed they could also fight so decided to avoid them, snuck through the tress and jumped a wall. Nira and I were the first ones o...
10:56 am - 19.12.2021Down the river
Even though I was tired, I trained with the thornless volante. I was drawn to it. As I cut the air, the volante left behind a trail of snow. The movement of this weapon has such elegance and fluidity, more so than a volante. I'll avoid mentioning that to ...
11:04 am - 26.11.2021The light, almost went out
I slept uneasily, feeling the shadows around us creep ever closer, but something kept them at bay; the others, they must have done something...for without them, I think the shadows would have attacked. I silently thank those who kept watch. In this group,...
01:35 pm - 11.11.2021Maze of shadows and death
I was burning with hatred; how could she have done that, how could she have set my Volante on fire, something so precious... I had worked so hard to get it...burnt...well still burning in front of me. And Sillia backed her up...do I have absolutely not va...
11:01 am - 30.10.2021Rip
She lit my volante on fire. ...
03:50 am - 14.10.2021A bluff and a losing hand
Never have I felt so helpless. I had just gotten myself tangled in the webs when looking up, a Spider with the torso of a dark elf towered above me; he foot placed upon my chest. Maladie was her name and she seemed pretty hungry...for elf. Sillia and ...
09:46 pm - 13.10.2021What tangled webs we weave
The webs all around us began shaking and we did not stick around to find out why. We left the area, running as best as we could since most of us were injured. We kept moving until we were out of the woods. From there, we headed to the mountains for the da...
08:59 pm - 11.10.2021What is known is now unknown
This place will kill us...barely did I have time to close my eyes, that Ezra woke me, shouting that if I did not wake up we would all die. At least My short sleep did give me back a little strength, even though my wounds still hurt. Awake, I had no time t...
01:19 pm - 15.09.2021Forest of fears and misfortune
After a while, we finally found a stop to rest, but during the night we were attacked by these strange, shadow beasts. Again, more shadow beasts. Again, something i could barely hit with my weapon. It seemed feline, but had 6 legs and some strange, whip-l...
09:37 am - 12.08.2021Magic beyond imagination
Not even the bards tell sing such fantastic tales... and yet what we lived through today, truly happened. In but one day I saw a man turn into a wolf, skeletons pick up weapons to fight us, a gigantic undead beast with wings rise up from the ground to fac...
07:09 am - 23.07.2021Walking out into the wild world
Leaving Orchestria and going out into the wildlands was actually fun. Ezra and I raced amongst the trees. She's really fast! I bet even Nallin wouldn't be able to beat her! While on the trip to Sonopra, Lady Sillia was generous enough to teach me a little...
11:05 pm - 14.07.2021Into the shadows
I feel I am stepping into the shadows of this world. The light went out with the death of...people I considered friends...friends I betrayed. I should never have brought them up into Orchestria, into the hands of the elves. They would have been safer havi...
05:16 am - 29.06.2021Wanting to belong
I'd only known them for a few days, and yet, I wanted to get to know them, to fight alongside them, to call them friends... but when the moment came to choose... I abandoned them. Orchestria is my home. The elves, my... family. Why does the choice I made ...
04:55 pm - 22.06.2021Elven "Hospitality"
Well, I convinced my mother to bring everyone up to Orchestria...but at a price; I have to leave the Harmony Guard and join the Symphony Guard. I had no option. I agreed. Now we just have to convince Lady Alta of the seriousness of our Shadow-creature pr...
11:07 am - 09.06.2021Within death's shadow
My Volante had no effect...it passed through the creature as if it were made of smoke. Even when I attacked it with a lit torch, it only flinched for the flame was too small. This beast of mist and darkness was far from being just a shapeless fog, for it ...
05:00 am - 18.05.2021Dreams and Mysteries
Chasing Shadows | The Chords of Chaos - Episode 8 Had such a strange dream last night; I was up in Orchestria and there was Lanthem, Sillia, my mother and... the thief I killed but a day ago. All four spoke to me. But I can't remember much... something a...

03:48 pm - 11.05.2021First day on the job
(Murder Mystery | The Chords of Chaos | Episode 2) At first, I thought seeing the dead lady was going to be the toughest part of the day...I was wrong, for a couple of verses later we were attacked by some humans disguised as death hands! I even had to k...
