Sneak peek π
🕑 Added 2025-03-19 17:09:46 +0000 UTCI started working on the Chapter 5 scenes this week. There is not much written yet because I spent a day flying yesterday, but I used the hours of soul-crushing boredom on the plane to plan out the new chapter and AAAHHH it's looking out to be so exciting!!! π«’π«’π«’
Here is the first scene. I know you're all waiting for it. It's a bit spoilery but there is no scene that isn't spoilery yet!!! π
---
You take a few steps back as you realize that the person β or thing β standing there in front of you is not Qenna anymore.
Tabiry and the rest back away with you at the same time.
Around Qenna's feet, a dark, ash-like smoke starts crawling over the ground, staining the earth black around him/her.
A putrid, rotting stench hits your nose.
Qenna β no, the demon β comes closer and at the same time, your own group scrambles back. The white sandstone of the pathway gets scorched in his/her footsteps.
"Narmer, leave them alone!" someone shouts from the side.
You are a bit too fucking terrified to take your eyes off the thing, but you risk a quick glance to the left and see Narmer pushing himself up on shaking limbs. He's cradling his right arm awkwardly, and his face is contorted into a pained grimace as he limps closer.
Qenna stops his/her advance but he/she doesn't give any other indication that he/she's heard him. He/She's still keeping his/her pitch black eyes on you/your group. [romanced/no-romance]
A small smile spreads across his/her lips and he/she takes a step closer again.
"Qenna!" Narmer shouts again.
Another step closer.
"Meriamon/Meritamon!" Narmer shouts this time, with a lot more desperation.
That makes the demon in Qenna's body falter for a moment. When he/she blinks, for a second, Qenna's eyes turn back to their original hazel. Another second, and the black spreads over them again.

I take it this hasn't happened yet? Or did I miss a scene? I can't miss my Qenna.
