Prepare for the #LodanRespawn2024 Existing characters may choose to be displace from/have memories of different timelines, thereby allowing returning members the option to retcon their whole character. These changes are the result of the "Unnatural Fog" plot device that is running between now and the Respawn. The plot is simple: no matter where your character is, that place is shrouded in a thick fog that suspends time, but not thoughts or memories, so even if they're repeating the same day over and over again, they continue to remember, so each time feels like a new day. For those retconning OCs; this is where new versions of themselves have the opportunity to replace the old versions. Official lore and tree updates will be announced asap
"Ohh..." Zona said turning back around completely ignoring Clancy's plead to stop, and looking at him with cold, dead eyes, "Ya think your the only one who's had someone you love die! Well your NOT!!! Both my parents died when I was 3, by someone I love! He was part of my family and I saw him as my second father, but then he goes and turns us in, I watched my fathers wings get ripped from his body, I watched as he was slowly torn to pieces and died on my family room floor. I watched as I not only drifted away from my mother, but watch her too get ripped and pounded into pieces! And don't say I was too young to remember them, or really understand what was happening because I did understand, and seeing that happen to you parents is horrid! I grew up on these Godforsaken streets, and did all I could do end the pain of loosing them, but nothing worked. Finally I thought I was over that more dung happened and two years later I was free! Out of that dollymop house. Physical scars were left from that, ones that would never heal, just like the 5 on my cheek that I got the day my parents died. I when to a tattoo parlor to get them covered up, and of course, ended up falling in love with the guy!" Zona had tears in her eyes that she was holding back, she was determined not to cry in front of this man, but she need a breather from her none stop rant, even though she had more to say.

"cleaver, I murdered my own parents, and I still don't give a drat! Even after all these years, I don't care! Never have! I killed them to spare her life, her only life, and it did nothing, and I don't care!" He giggled "And poor, poor you, ander. I do feel sorry for you. I pity your dreadful existence." he turned to Clancy with the same malicious smirk "Stay out of this, dear Clancy, stay out."
They ignored him. He expected this. Not like his words mattered much. But he would not sit idly by as the two people he cared for most broke apart. Normal attempts to get their attention would not work though. He had to think of something...

The tears that were in Zonas eye burned, not to escape and make their way down her cheek, but as though a large fire just lit up in them. "frak YOU!!" Zona cursed at the man as she quickly pulled out her bow and strung it with an arrow, pointing it directly at the old mans face, "What the HELL is wrong with you!! I just frakin saved your life from something that would have killed you in second, and THIS is how you repay me!?!?" Her eyes narrowed and her voice went calm, to something nether of them had seen or heard before, not only were her eyes soulless, but they seemed to have some kind of void in them, where any and all emotion disappeared leaving only the feeling of fear in the other person. Her voice was the same, and sent a chill down anyone's spine, calmly she said, "Though I'm not the greatest shot I will hit you in 2 shoots or less. If I do happen to miss the first, I can string my arrow and shoot it faster than the time it would take you to draw your sword."

"You're going to try and kill me, you repulsive ander?" Iacomus said, still smiling "Go ahead then. Do it. Quickly now. If not I have other things I have to attend to... cleaver."
Zona completely shut off her emotions no longer to be seen by others, or felt by her. This was a little trick she was able to pick up on the street. After hear all the man had to say Zona quickly fired the arrow, being sure to aim it at his thigh just before she let the arrow go, "Opps." She said with no emotion, "I guess I missed." She hit exactly where she wanted it, a warning shoot directly in the middle of his thigh, she then strung her second arrow and walked closer to him, "This time I wont miss." She said with the same tone and soulless eyes as before. No one not even she knew if she really ment that, and if she really would send the arrow flying into his neck.
Iaco is being a jerk, but now zonas doing this!! Ahhh!!! what now!?!?!?

Iacomus cringed as he was struck. He was in immeasureable pain, as he had never been hurt in such a way. Tears welled up in his eyes, but he, knowing how it would turn out if he were to show her that he was in such pain, spread out his arms, making himself an easier target to hit. "Hurry up, cleaver! I've got things to do!"
Zona slowly began to walk closer and closer, to the point where her bow was just inches away. Still staring at him with the same eyes she held his gaze for a good minute, before quickly taking her bow and cracking him in the head with it. The swing of the bow was hard and fast and it knocked him to the ground, whether she knocked him out or not she didn't know, and really didn't care. "The only reason I'm doing this is because someone here cares for you more than you think." She said as she reached down grabbed and twisted her arrow and then pulled it out. She then walked over to where she threw her jacket, which had been off the entire time, picked it up and retracted her wings, hiding them in the maze of tattoos all over her back that looked to be in the shapes of wings. As she put her jacket on and started walking towards the city entrance she cursed back at the man, "bumrag..." And she continues on her way, not looking back.

Clancy stared at the two open mouthed. Their behavior utterly shocked him to his core. This was all his fault, he should have stepped in sooner! Now Iaco was hurt and Zona still had that large gash on her leg that needed to be taken care of. Taking a deep breath he stomped up to Iaco and slapped him in the face. Not a very hard slap but hard enough. "Stop it. Right now" he huffed. Turning he ran after Zona, grabbing her shoulder before she could leave. After spinning her around so that she faced him, he slapped her on the face as well. He looked at her with teary eyes and a deep frown and shook his head. "We do not shoot our friends. EVER." he said in a shaky voice, his emotions ready to explode. Turning he looked at Iaco with an angry glare. "An' who are you ta egg her on ta kill ya! I am terribly sorry that ya don't think ya got nuthin' ta live fer but I want ya in my life as long as possible. Both of ya" he shot a look at his two friends.
"Now would ya both just- please- stop fer a moment and listen?!" he pleaded, clasping his hands tightly together in front of his chest. Whether he had their attention or not, he went on. "It pains me ta hear that both yer lives ain't been easy. Ya both deserve tha best but were cheated of that. But ya can't change tha past and ya shouldn't want to! Yer history shaped ya both into tha amazing people ya are today! I am selfish enough ta say that I want ya both in my life forever but that's gon' be hard when ya start rippin' into each other the moment a secret comes out!" He pointed into the woods as he went on "Ya both just survived somethin' few people woulda made it through! Ya should be congratulatin' each other! Not try to break yerselves down... Yer the only family I got now. Please don' do this; please don' break my family apart. Ya both need medical attention. Stop fighting so I can help ya both" he finished, angrily wiping a few stray tears for his cheek that managed to fall during his little speech.

When she felt Clancys hand on her shoulder she didn't try to shake it off, and didn't even flinch when he slapped her. He had a reason to be mad at what she did, but right now she really didn't care. She listened to everything he had to say, but didn't look at him, she didn't look at Iacomus, she just looked off into the distance of the forest, thinking of everything she said, everything she revealed, and all she could think was how Iacomus laughed at everything that she said, not even pretending to care. Hearing that Clancy thought of her as his family would have made her feel good, but for some reason it didn't effect her at all, it was as though she lost all ability to feel here, she knew she shut them off when she was fighting with Iacomus, but she didn't want to feel anymore. She didn't want the pain and hurt he caused her to show, at least not now, maybe later when she was home with Tilly, but even that she didn't want to do. Once Clancy was done with what he was saying Zona just stood there, silently, not saying anything, not doing anything, just staring off into the distance with cold, hard eyes.

Iacomus screamed as Zona ripped out the arrow and clutched his leg while still laying on the ground. Dammit, being raised rich didn't really help him when it came to withstanding pain. He looked up only a little when Clancy started to speak, and listened, but had nothing to say.
Clancy looked between his silent friends and shook his head. There was no getting through to them. All he could do now was help get them home. Walking over to Iaco, he offered his hand to him "Come on, I'll take care of ya"

As Clancy walked over to Iacomus to help him up, Zona turned around and began to walk home, she didn't need anyone's help and she sure in hell wasn't going to wait for that bumrag. Besides she didn't want Clancy to see where she lived, with the places that they have he would see as a garbage hole instead of her home, and if she was the first to get dropped off Iaco would see where she lived, and she sure didn't want that.

Iacomus looked up at Clancy, somewhat dazed and weary, and took his hand. "Thank you..." He said, limping slightly as he got up. He saw Zona walking away. That cleaver. Iaco, stop being such a meanie! *Cries* TT^TT my character is a meanie.
Clancy helped his friend up, slinging his arm over his own shoulder. Looking up he saw Zona walk away. Apperently she did not want his help. A sigh escaped his lips. That girl... "Come on, I'll help ya home." he said with a broken smile.
