-This session was played on 30/08/2025.

[[pc:clark_dubois|Clark]], [[pc:gaia_dynko|Gaia]] and [[pc:maelle_kurimoto|Maelle]] explore the same timeline in which [[npc:Ariyadna]] killed three rigasian convicts, and find her to be surprisingly helpful.
  
 ======Plot====== ======Plot======
  
 +Clark, Gaia and Maelle come back to consciousness in the middle of an african plain, right where [[session:9|Session 9]] ended. As they come to their senses they find the recently deceased rigasian convicts.
 +
 +As Clark and Maelle search the dead people's backpacks, Gaia decides to build a shallow grave for them, but the combination of the events of the previous session and the mangled corpse of [[pc:Steve]] are too much to bear and she ends in tears and pulled into the world comfiest hugpile that is 90% giant wolf.
 +
 +Emotionally exhausted, they decide to have lunch using some of the rations that they found and ponder where they are and where they can go; they decide to follow the notes left by [[pc:zoe_curie|Zoé]], but are spooked by some kind of portal phenomenon that gives Maelle a headache and produces strange visual effects in reflections.
 +
 +Following Zoé's notes they find a military patrol in the road, that seem to be confused by them (they //look// like those new pale people that they were warned about but they come with one of the anagusi giant wolves). They manage to communicate a bit with charades and four of the soldiers escort them to a fortification in a hill where a lot of the locals have taken refuge.
 +
 +As Maelle and Gaia go around the fort trying to learn stuff, and in particular bothering people to teach them a bit of their language, Clark goes to clean up in a small river and finds that his massive usage of his gift during the previous day has changed him to the point that his face looks quite femenine now. He manages to avoid having a panic attack by mostly repressing and rationalizing some of the stuff he learned from [[npc:Riung]] and Amanda.
 +
 +During the night, Maelle is again woken up by another headache, then they hear terrified screams coming from the moat. Checking the outside they discover a pale shape emerging from the moon's reflection that screams in pain and fear. Gaia tries to shoot it, to Maelle's consternation, but the shoot has no effect.
 +
 +Maelle goes down and tries to help whatever the pale shape is, and Gaia decides to don the glove and look, discovering this is an anagusi woman, probably trapped sideways on time by the portal event caused by the rigasian counterattack. Amanda believes there's no helping her and that the best that can be done is to dispense a quick death.
 +
 +The night is saved (supposedly?) by the arrival of Ariyadna, who grabs the anagusi woman with her bare hands and twists her back to her right place in time, causing Maelle (who is still feeling the full effects of her emotions for the first time in decades) to devolve in a full-blown gay panic.
 +
 +When discussing the arrival of Ariyadna and what she can mean for the general situation, the conversation drifts for a bit  and a still emotionally volatile Maelle confesses that she is an [[thing:aberration]], to the confusion of Clark and Gaia whose only concept of an aberration is the things from the zones. Derek, though, believes that the longing for skewed reality is something that the anagusi call "being eternity-touched" and is basically something shared by all of them, since they haven't resided in regular timelines for a long time.
 +
 +The idea of skewed timelines becoming dominant  is quite scary for Clark and Gaia, since their only point of reference is the [[place:nuskom#zone|Nuskom Zone]]. Gaia in particular goes to sleep angry.

 ======Trivia====== ======Trivia======
  
-[[pc:Rose]]? What Rose?+[[pc:Rose]] is still in [[place:Valtshora]]. 
 + 
 +Clark and Gaia are non-discriminating enough to find rigasian army rations quite palatable. 
 + 
 +Clark is confirmed to be a magical trans girl. Still cis, though. 
 + 
 +By a loose definition, the entirety of the main trio are magical girls. 
 + 
 +Also confirmed that people are still using uranium in the rigasian timeline to make [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uranium_glass|glass that glows]] green in the dark. And since they are not stockpiling all uranium to make nuclear fuel, it is a lot more prevalent than here.
  
-Clark is confirmed to be a magical trans girl. Still cisthough.+According to Derek, gifted might be able to strengthen their gift or a non-gifted might be able to be granted gift by petitioning [[place:Umichoo]] for itbut the price will be steep.
  
-Also confirmed that people are still using radium in the rigasian timeline to make glass that glows green in the dark.+By word of storyteller, the rigasian patrol that was lost in [[session:1|Session 1]] was actually caught in an effect similar to the anagusi woman that Ariyadna released.
