Eyes wide with horror, one hand holding a cloth to his nose, Minharath stumbles into the room. Stopping just inside the door, he presses his eyes tightly closed, and you may worry that he has not yet recovered. At this time, however, Gloom's wounds begin to close, though the scars will likely never fade. Dark gashes where his body was pierced, they will be lifelong reminders of this day.
[sblock=Gloom dream sequence]No one is perfect, and children are prone to getting into trouble. At sometime in his youth, Gloom did something -it doesn't matter what- that got him punished. The punishment was deserved, and came from someone who loved him. Whatever the punishment was, it was likely their disappointment that hurt the most. That same disappointment fills Gloom's mind now, though this time the source is one of nearly incalculable love. Not just your mother, but all mothers are looking at you, as though you have just broken a solemn promise. Your guilt seems overwhelming to you, and for a moment it turns to despair. Then, the haze around your mind recedes, and the sounds of battle rise around you. You have been given a second chance: it is up to you to decide what to do with it.[/sblock]
[sblock=OOC, regarding Gloom]Normally, I try not to dictate other characters' emotions or actions in my posts, I think it's rude. This time, I do so only because those effects are imposed, as an effect of the temporary connection between you and the Hearth Goddess.[/sblock]
