Haven't Written F'r A While...

(copied from another of my blogs Alnea)

I had the big bad guy of Alnea inject a couple girls in my story named Phae and Cariya with a special metal, an invention of his.
The reason why is this bad guy (also known as Sahrain) likes to invent things. And one of the things he invents is a poison that eats away at your will. What it takes from your will it gives to your strength, but that doesn't come to be of any use since you eventually don't have the will to do anything. Anyway, this poison is very slow-working, and the reason Sahrain invented this metal was so that it would help a person absorb this particular poison much faster. But the side-effects of the metal have some very interesting effects.

For one, if you're injected with it without having been given the poison, the length of your life grows. A lot. Your senses also get sharper. From there the side effects vary from person to person, except for one more thing that remains consistent. Whoever injected the metal into the person has partial control over their minds, and if that person isn't fighting a constant battle to keep the liberty of their will, whoever gave them the metal will take over, utterly and completely. This is the case with Sahrain, who put it in Phae and Cariya.

They happen to carry some things that Sahrain wants to increase his power. Alnea (my world, for those of you unaware) would basically be destroyed if he got all of these things. They enter the land of one of his vassals, and his strength in the tug-of-war with their minds grows. Eventually, he does get one of these gems that they're holding. He cuts them off from all outside communication, including blocking any entrance where telepathy might find a way. So that now everyone else is unaware of their growingly desperate situation.

Until one has an idea to save the one who did not have enough strength to stand against Sahrain. But not herself.

As before and always be,
Nestami.
