Blood Bound; Chapter 1

Not edited😘 Picture Belongs to @downing photography 📸📸

Elain burst into Rysand’s Office gaping like a fish and out of breath, her nightgown clinging to her body and her hair a mess from just waking up, Rysand’s head snapped up in surprise.

“Is Nyx Okay? Is Feyre?” she gasped. She rushed here so quickly she didn't even think about throwing her robe over her exposed skin.

“I ..yes, Elain, they are both fine, I apologize for summoning you here so quickly, but there was no rush” Rhys cleared his throat at her disheveled appearance.

Elain felt heat creep up her cheeks, as she looked around the office, both Azriel and Cassian stood next to him, the former trying to hold a light snicker before the shadowsinger hit him upside his head and scolded him for not being a gentleman. Elain watched as he sent his shadows away for a moment before his eyes flickered to the back of the room where someone else stood.

Elain followed his eyes to a redhead she had seen before. Met Before.

Eris.

“ Hello Kingslayer..” His voice, warm and dangerous as his eyes looked her up and down. “I’ve always loved the night court fashion, is that what your women wear nowadays, Rhysand? Maybe I should move here next”.

Elain went rigged at the term and felt the tip of her ears burn. She looked over to Rhys who held his chin up towards the heir of the autumn court.

“Your welcome anytime of course, old friend” Rhys words held know sincerity and everyone in the room knew it, However eris inclined his head in thanks anyways.

“ My apologies about my attire, Lord Eris, I believed there was trouble and I came as quickly as I could” Elain bowed her head, but not low enough to show any respect.

Eirs began to walk towards her “No apologies needed, my dear sister in law” Elain felt her self flinch again but said nothing.

Eris Continued ‘’ I admire your…dedication to your court” A smirk played on his lips. Cunning and something alongside playful …but much, much worse. Elain couldn't think of a word that described eris, besides that.

Before Eris could get any closer, Azriel’s shadows dropped her robe around her shoulders, tugging on her loseley bound and curls as they did. However they stayed near her instead of returning to their master, hissing at the lord of autumn.

Elain nodded her head in thanks to the shadowsinger who nodded back, and unspoken agreement between the two.

“ Interesting” Eris whispered watching the shadows surround her. he turned his head to Azriel “You can call your shadows off, I won’t hurt her”

“ They are there of their own free will” Was all Azriel said. No emotion to be shown.

“ And yet you command them as well, i wonder…”Eris hummed

“ Lord Eris..” Elain started “ If you don’t mind me asking, Why are you here at this time of night”.

“ Aw yes, I almost forgot, Your face truly is one of such beauty. I can see why my brother is desperate for your affection” He reached to touch her face before a shadow snapped at him.

Eris chuckled “ I have a proposition for you, Kingslayer….

“ I do not like that term, Lord Eris’

“ And why is that?…I wonder..You are the one who stabbed him are you not? You stepped out of his shadows, with his weapon of choice… and yet you take no credit…No you let your sister take your glory..your kill..”

“ You’ve gotten off topic again my lord” Elain felt, more then saw the three illyrian warriors go rigid.

“Not truly..You see, Kingslayer…..I have a king I need slayed”

“ Then find someone else”.

“ I would if i could Sweetheart, but it begs to stand, i need and slayer, a seer and a spy..and you happen to be all tree...Besides you haven’t heard the best part’,

He leaned in closer, his breath hitting her neck, In an almost whisper he said “ I know how you can break the mating bond, with my brother”.

Elain took a step back “What..”

Eris tilted his head and smiled, that cunning smile once more “ You help me and i will tell you how it's done..infact i will do it for you as a sign of good faith, it won’t be pretty though”.

“ I thought you couldn’t break the bond” elain’s hearts as racing. She looked over to Rhysand who looked astounded

“ Whoever told you such a thing?” He laughed as if he already knew the answer.

Elain flinched, weighing her options, she could break the bond…but she couldn’t wrap her head around it, there had to be a catch. She didnt know much about politics in the fae world but she knew they liked to play games

“ I’m not a spy..”

“ No, but you have a spymaster at your beck and call.. I assumed where you go he will follow…to insure your safety of course”.

Rysand stood up “ She will not..”

Elain Cut him off “ What do i have to do?””

“Elain” Rysand warned

Elain ignored him, her eyes flickered to the shadowsinger, whose hands were rested on truthteller, watching her with such an intensity her skin crawled.

“ I need a vision first..I have a teeny-tiny question that I need answered, and before you say it doesn't work like that i know how to force a vision out of you…once I get the answer i want..we will discuss the details.

“ Eris, you said nothing of this when you asked to speak to her’’ Rysands voice was dark and stern and elain would have usually shivered at his sheer power, but now, standing in front of Eris, who had the possibility of changing her future.

“ I have some requests to make first before i accept anything” Elain held her chin up high

“ Of course” Eris Inclined his head curious, “But vision first my dear, if it’s not the right answer, we can all forget about this conversation all together anyways”

There was fire and hunger in his eyes.

“ Elain” it was azriels voice this time with a warning.

“ Don’t worry Shadowsinger, you play a big part in this as well, if you would be so kind to step forward and bring that dagger of yours as well”

Azriel looked at rhys before stepping towards. He eyes eris, waiting for an attack.

The shadow singer inclined his head, speaking silently “Are you sure?

“ Yes,” Elain nodded.

Azriel partially stepped in front of Elain blocking her from Eris.

“ What do i have to do?” azriels voice was menacing and untrusting

“ Stand behind her is all i need of you right now, shadowsinger”

Azriel hesitantly moved behind her

“ Your dagger if you please”

Azriel once again looked at rhys before shifting his attention to elain as he towered over her. Not letting his eyes leave hers.

Begrudgingly, he handed it to eris, who grunted when the power hit his palm. Eris thought a shield of fire around them and said “Close your eyes, Elain”

Elain did as he said

“Now picture the autumn court”

Elain tried but nothing came to mind.

“Funny thing with made objects. I heard you required the Starsword recently, it should teleport here in a second, Like calls to like afterall”

“What are you …” Azriel began to ask

Without a warning or a second to process it, Eris drove Truth Teller into Elains heart

Elain gasped and stumbled, her ears ringing and eyesight blurry and milky as she fell into a screaming azriels arms. There was a humming sound, metal against metal, a warmth that spread to her chest and a scream that lodged in her throat.

“ Whose the future lord of the Autumn court, Elain?” Eris voice spoke in her head.

Elain felt tears burn in her eyes as she gasped “ Why should I help you now” she choked out.

“Because, if you don’t your shadowsinger will die”.

There was another scream only this time it was her, it was Azriel, blood curdling and agony ridden.

She saw it in her head in flashes,

Elain,curled into Azriels lap as she bled out. Sobbing and grief in his tears over her as he begged.The star sword flying through the shield so quickly and running straight through Azriel’s chest, before uniting itself with the dagger still in elain’s heart . Azriel screamed before his body slumped and breathing heavily as he tried to pull her closer, blood staining his chin. Shadows wiping themselves around the two with violence and anger. A bright light flashing between the darkness and shards of a shattered siphon coated in blood.

She saw Eris on the throne, beorn beheaded at his feet. The starsword coated in the dead highlords blood, being held by an equally blood coated hand. One by one, flashes of how eris did it.

She saw too much too quickly, couldn’t process what she was seeing, what was happening. It was too much.

Then it slowed, she saw his scarred hand holding hers, their blood mixing as it pooled around them, an equal amount of light and shadows echoed from their matching wounds and a frayed string that snapped.

And then just complete darkness.

Welcome to the Shadowbound ARG (Alternate reality game). this will be a user interactive blog where we will go through the town of Oakfield, a desolate small town in Maine. The town has been abandoned for years due to unknown circumstances after the residents disappeared.

None of these people have been found, and no trace of their whereabouts has been discovered. There's a strangely strong river surrounding the town and some of the surrounding area that is uncrossable to prevent anyone from entering. all cellular communication is cut off over the river.

Corrupting Influences: Shadowbound part 3

 Implications

 So what does it mean for your world if you let the shadowbound corruption be a part of it?

Well, first, let’s take a moment to examine the possible origins of the corruption.

 The very first possibility that is listed is being exposed to the plane of shadow for too long. That shadowy place behind and below the material is a place of darkness, dissolution, and distortion. Like seasonal affective disorder on steroids, it simply is too much a depressing place for some. Of course, if your setting has established cities where trade with the plane of shadow and the material plane are common, this corruption might be commonplace, or it might make extended colonies and societies of lightsiders impossible to maintain, unless of course you use such things as the origin for fetchlings and other shadowfolk.

In fact, it’s probably best to assume that fetchlings and wayangs, with their strong connection to the shadow, probably are immune to this form of the corruption, though not necessarily to others.

Of course, the corruption also mentions velstracs, undead, and other creatures of darkness as being a possible source, which has merit. After all, such beings, especially nightshades, bring despair to those they don’t kill outright, and they might even spread an “infection” of shadowy darkness and despair

Both of these overlook a key detail, though. The corruption also places a recommendation that the torment should be repeated and personal. Not only has the character in question had multiple bad encounters with creatures of darkness within a relatively short period, these encounters were with beings that know enough about the character’s hopes, dreams, and loved ones to cater their malice to the victim personally, targeting their every desire, insecurity, and relationship with illusions very real torments until the darkness that resides within them begins to take root.

 All in all, this corruption borrows heavily from fantasy fiction where evil itself is a manifestable thing, a black taint that poisons anything it touches from within unless it is guarded against and burned away. It is despair and hate made into an infectious shadow which can sometimes be described as anti-life, anti-happiness. Of course, in such settings, goodness is also a physical thing, oftentimes represented by a painfully bright light.

Of course, this corruption, and the things it is based around, can easily be used as an allegory for mental illness, particularly depression and any disorder that can be born from trauma. The parallels between being unable to see beauty for what it is and even being pained by light and wonder bring to mind the effect of some disorders. Again, however, remember that there are many pitfalls to such allegories, and such conditions cannot be healed so easily by the power of friendship or shining divine light.

 It's fair to say that this corruption casts a shadow on the setting it is introduced to, pun intended, but it might be a rare thing, or it might be an ever-present danger depending on the setting and the foes that the party is expected to face.

In any case, tomorrow, we’ll look into ways to vary up this corruption in case the vanilla version doesn’t do it for you.

Corruptions are a rarely-used mechanic in Pathfinder, so I wanted to delve a little more deeply into them. The second corruption I’ve looked at as part of this project, the Shadowbound Corruption is a nasty piece of work... but it is survivable, if you’re careful.

I was watching some MLP speedpaints and realized I haven't actually drawn, like, blood and stuff.... like ever.

So this is me practicing! I was kinda happy with how these sketches looked, so I wanted to share. I wouldn't consider them very extreme, but it's still trauma nonetheless.

They're all just sketches, though. Nothing colored.

Blood Bound. Chapter 2

Elain heard them before she saw them. Her eyes fluttered open at the sound of hushed tones coming far outside from her empty room. She sat up, her body moving too quickly. She pushed the dizziness away, wobbling to her feet. She needed to find him…

She moved towards the door,going to open it but not before catching herself in a mirror. She was still covered in blood. Her hair, a mess, still in that stupid nightgown of hers. 

How long had she been asleep? How long had she wondered in the shadows? 

Elain didn’t know..But someone could have at least cleaned her up. 

She caught a glimmer in the mirror. She turned towards the nightstand, where Truth Teller and the starsword laid. Without thinking she called for the dagger, a wave of shadows swallowing it before spitting it out in her hand.  She could feel its power wash over her but she ignored it. All that was important right now was finding Azriel..  

Take me to him. She whispered to the dagger. The dagger obeyed, winnowing her through the darkness. The voices become louder the closer she got. 

“ You Blood Bounded them? How is that possible? 

“ they were already bound by shadows, i just amplified it…you can't have more than one bond, therefore her bond to my brother no longer exists.The dagger is a made object, one that they both so happen to be able to wield..I had a hunch that it would have worked’ 

“And is it didn't work” 

“ Then I'm sure you would have killed me already.” 

“ Still debating it” Cassian muttered 

“ And did Lucien feel it? As well?” Feyre “ Elain..She seemed to be in so much pain , and this weird energy seemed to be released” 

“ I’m sure the pain had more to do with the dagger in her chest…” Eris continued.." I'm unaware if he did or not. Their bond, from my understanding, wasn't that strong to begin with…but I do ask that you leave my involvement in the matter a secret”. 

She landed on her knees with a thud. Startling everyone in the room. 

“Elain!” Feyre and Nesta ran to her, Helping her up. They looked at her, all bloodied and a mess and frowned. “ we tried to clean you up while you were asleep, but the shadows wouldn’t allow us near you”

Another wave of dizziness washed over  but she spoke “ Where is he?” she whispered to her sisters. 

They looked at each other and then to their mates “ He hasn’t woken up yet…” Feyre said, her eyes watery. “ It’s bad lainey..he lost control of his siphons..when he saw you…” 

 “Saw me what?” Elain asked…” What's going on? Is he?..” Elain felt a sob begin in her chest. 

“ He’s not dead…” Elain snapped her head to the corner of the room. Where Eris stood, his arms crossed..”Just on the brink… he will be fine, now that you're awake..he will awake soon”.  

Anger and Rage and every bad feeling she ever felt before, coursed through her, heating in her veins. And it was directed at Eris. She winnowed behind him quickly, knocking him to his knees before he could register that she moved. 

Truth teller, digging into his neck she seethed “Give me one reason I shouldn't kill you right now?,”

“ Because I broke your bond like I said I would”. 

“ You stabbed Azriel”. 

“ Technically that starsword did that on its own accord to get to you and the dagger” 

“‘ A warning would have been nice”.  

“ You wouldn’t have done it otherwise.. Look…I broke the bond and caused a vision..two birds with one stone…3 birds if you count uncovering that the sword and dagger answer to you along with you being shadowbound to that illyrian bastard”.  

Elain pushed the knife close and something close to fear shifted in his eyes. “Explain” was all she said. “ What’s Shadowbound?” 

“ Okay..Okay…Why don’t you move the dagger away from my pretty throat and i'll talk” 

Elain slowly took a step away, watching Eris's every move…

“Damn Night Court women '' he shivered, standing up, and continued “ I don’t know exactly how it works…but every now and then, two souls cross each other during a near death experience and bind to one another..when you were turned high fae, you human soul pretty much died…the same time the shadowsinger was dying with a ash arrow through his chest..” 

 Eris continued “It connected you both in a way that can even trump the mating bond..Twin souls that reached out to each other during the near death…a gift from the mother herself... Shadow-kissed as some call it...I believe it' part of the reason you were made a seer. You can walk between worlds...wither it's mentally or physically..that I do not know.” 

“ But the cauldron…” Elain started.

“ Azriel was more than half way dead..The cauldron was trying to find a way to save you, you who is blessed by its creator. So it tethered you to someone alive..Just in case binding you to the shadowsinger didn’t work and he ended up dying”. 

“ But were both alive” 

“ Yes. and you ended up with a uncomfortable mating bond that was physically and mentally hurting you, because your soul couldn't handle both bonds at once” 

“ How did you …nobody..” Elain trailed off…

“Nobody bothered to ask how it felt for you…I figured as much” Eris sighed but continued, “Lucien often described it to me as painful and unbearable at times when he would feel it through you. That it was bitter on his own tongue. I could only assume it was worse for you, when you were also shadowbound to someone else”. 

“ And this blood binding thing?” Elain asked

 “In the old language, it's called carranam - Or Blood Bounded as we call it - two fae who choose each other over everything else and are blessed by the mother. There has to be a certain amount of affection in place to be full carranam, blood is spilled between the two fae, mixing together and binding them…you share each other's powers on some level, and since you already share souls it was an..easy process…that's why you both can use the dagger. Why can you walk through his shadows and why he knew you were a seer before anyone else…“

“ Azriel had Truth Teller before i came along” 

“ True…but besides the other-worlder that was here..you are the only other person who yields it..The Shadowsinger was given the dagger for you…” 

“I don’t understand” Elain said “ It’s sounds the same as shadowbound” 

“ I’m not sure i follow either” Cassain whispered to Nesta

“ I suppose to a certain extent, it's the same, shadowing binding, blood binding…it’s the same concept just at different levels” Eris smirked, “ Blood Binding is…just a bit more..intimate...Usually done in a setting much more private.. And with yours and the shadow-singers souls already being tied together, using the blades was the quickest way to sever the bond with lucien and bind you both as well..however..the other way would definitely be more entertaining to watch” he winked and Elain tried her best to fight off her disgust. “blood binding just makes it official”.

“ Keep talking like that and I'll gladly rip your head off Eris” Cassian spoke, a warrior's smirk on his face. 

Eris ignored Cassion, which only irritated the illyrian more, his wings twitching and fist curled “ What did you see Elain…Did you find the answer to my question kingslayer” 

“‘ You want your answers. I want mine” 

“ What more do you want dear elain..I’ve pretty much told you everything’ 

“ No you haven’t……what else did you do to him”

Eris smirked and threw his hands up “ you know, I've never seen a woman like yourself…covered in so much blood and gore and still so esquite and stunning, dusk practically radiates off you..It really is a shame you couldn’t make a false bond with my brother work. We would have been good allies”. 

 “ i highly doubt that”

“ I haven’t lied to you about any of this…you and the shadowsinger are Carranam.. Blood chosen mates, now there is no blood duel, no highlords who can deny you, no Mistakes..I just put a little safety measure in place, to assure my success..to assure your assistance in the matter at hand” 

Elain flinched at the word and Eris smiled and it suddenly clicked. Azriel wasn't going to wake up..not until she helped him.  

“What did you do”” She whispered,horror washing over her.  

“ Have you ever heard of Dracarys Root? It’s also known as Valayian’s Fire” 

She didn’t know how he did it..How he pulled it off…

“ Turns out when mixed with Seer blood, it can put anyone, even one of the most powerful fae, in a dream like state..One that you often find yourself in Elain when you can’t control your visions”. 

“ What do you gain from this Eris”  Tears pricked in her eyes. 

“ You already know elain..You saw it…I just need you to confirm it”

“ All this for a answer, your already pretty certain off” 

“ The future can change” 

“ Elain” She heard Nesta’s Voice in her ear “ What’s going on” 

She ignored her sister

“ Yours won’t. It's already set it stone”

“ So you’ll do my bidding” Eris said raising his hand

“I don’t have a choice” 

“Elain, what are you talking about?” Feyre asked. 

Elain didn’t answer Feyre, either..

“What do you say Kingslayer….The antidote for your assistance” 

“Let me see him first,” She whispered. 

Eris tilted his head in amusement, chuckling. ‘“How about a bargain..i give the shadowsinger back to you…Alive..once everything is taken care of...and I'll you see him when I feel like it.”

“ Deal” 

“ You know bargains are different in the autumn court then in night..I’m afraid you wont get a pretty tattoo” 

“ I don’t care” Elain held out her hand. 

Eris took it without blinking…..and Elain couldn't help the scream that left her mouth as her hand was set on fire. The bargain burning itself into her skin 

“How ironic..now you match the shadowsinger....Welcome to the Autumn Court Elain Archeron”.

Corrupting Influences: Shadowbound part 4

(art by Sandra Winther on DeviantArt)

 Variants

 Since this corruption is based heavily upon any number of “corrupting darkness” themes across fiction, it only makes sense that there would be plenty of ways we can mix it up by drawing upon those sources.

 A common thing to happen with such corruptive forces is that they often take the physical form of a foul black liquid, usually a greasy viscous consistency as well. It might be a black goop that clings to them, or it might be a black inky taint that darkens the blood of the victim. With that in mind, a variant of the corruption might have gooey powers.

Some corruptions might overlap with possession as well, particularly when it comes to the possession being a splinter personality that stands against everything the person loves, an anti-self that seeks only the intrusive-though catharsis of ruining everything they care about.

Sometimes the malignance has a will of it’s own, which can also tie into hybridizing with either the possessed corruption or another appropriate one. In such cases, when the shadowbound victim loses control and lashes out as the beautiful and precious, they may literally be a different person playing backseat to the eldritch entity behind the wheel.

Another common thread of shadowy corruption lies in the overuse of “dark magic”, which threatens to consume the mind and body of the user. Indeed, you could probably use the psychometabolic corruption’s pool of energy as a basis there, and/or add manifestations that add other shadow or other dark-themed spells to their arsenal.

Additionally, in some stories, the shadowy taint doesn’t just affect people, but the very landscape. Perhaps a sufficiently tainted land might serve the same purpose as the plane of shadow in terms of long-term exposure leading to this corruption. Alternately, perhaps using the powers granted by the corruption spreads the stain around to the places the victim visits?

 You can combine these various ideas in all sorts of ways to really make the shadowbound corruption stand out, which just illustrates the variety that can be found in what some might call a “generic shadow corruption.”

That does it for now, but tomorrow we’ll give some final thoughts!
