Be certain you are somewhere you cannot be overheard when you listen to this. ( The warning comes first - sharp with a hint of a command that can only come from the King of Hell. )

I found a fissure at the bottom of the sea spewing dark water - the same we found at the village, in the volcano. Emilia learned from the ghosts many were after an 'unthinkable power' lost at sea - the dark water may be related. Surrounding the fissures, there were bodies - preserved and cored out so only their outward appearances remain like suits to be worn. They were lured there.

( By what, it is unclear. Was it the call of the dark water itself or some creature? Wrath does not have all the answers but knows the information is vital to share. )

Jon Snow's experience in the mirror is a reflection of what occurred at the fissure. He confirmed a presence fought him from within, attempting to take his shape and form.

None of the crew has ever been trustworthy, but we must all be aware any could be wearing skin that is not their own, pretending to be something they are not. Allison confirmed Quicksilver has been to the Crossing previously where he lost his vessel and crew. Given that and his strange behavior, I am most suspicious of him, but with Kreil's threats and the doomed voyage we appear to be on, we should not sit idly by.

yeah it's different, isn't it

my kind is perfectly reversible

well, most of the time, there might've been an incident or two

It sounds like far less of a messy process. Does the magic require the other person to be willing, or can it simply force them out of their bodies without permission?

And it seems in the case of your curse, something simply occupies your body with you. ( Not quite a body swap, but something else. )

[traaaaaash]

it doesn't need permission no

yep i share my head with beastie

It doesn't seem to bother you much.

( Wrath would hate it, but perhaps simply because he isn't used to it. The monster of the rage he keeps locked inside is ultimately his own - less separate than what he felt from her. )

[traaaaaash]

yeah well you learn to live with it

[inferus]

How long has it been?

[traaaaaash]

eh about 30 years

[inferus]

And no interest to free yourself of this curse? It primarily seemed difficult with how it left you vulnerable in a dangerous situation

[traaaaaash]

eh

not like i haven't thought about it

but so far there's no known cure and i decided i'd rather learn to live with it than get my hopes up

also i look bomb as a harpy
