Eternal Curse: Giovanni’s Angel chapter 7.1 (wip)

Mira looked at Giovanni and reached for his hand. “The creation of life is one of the few things most people in the world will agree is a happy thing. Bringing in a fresh new harvest or seeing a young child; it’s all new life and it’s all beautiful,” Mira explained. Then, Mira’s hand finally touched Giovanni’s and a jolt of energy rushed through her body; and for the first time, Giovanni felt something, too.

Mira was actually beginning to enjoy and look forward to the sensation of Giovanni’s touch, while Giovanni was beginning to experience a new sensation of his own. His hand grew warm and he became dizzy. He didn’t understand it; he knew there was nothing physically wrong with him, but this new warming and dizzying sensation lingered a bit as he continued to walk along beside Mira holding her hand.

Eternal Curse: Battleground 7.1 (wip)

Mira and I carefully and quietly snuck out of our private quarters and then out the hotel’s side entrance, as we headed to the poorest and most dangerous part of the city, so we could find the shanties. There we gave an old man a gold coin and a piece of plant based writing material, with a strange symbol on it that we’d been instructed to draw out. The symbol appeared to be the shape of the letter ‘U’ overlapped by three rings. Two parallel horizontal rings intersected at a one-third perpendicular across a longer vertical ring, caused all three together to resemble the appearance of a cross. We were told to give the coin to the first elderly man we saw and to show him the image so that, then, we would be lead to the secret caves.

How does this character feel about his/her book peers?

Subject EC:GA 4-Mira:

…is still getting used to Leo, unsure of what it is he actually does.

…adores Abraham and clings to him as the father she’s never had.

…feels sorry for Giovanni and realizes that in order to help him, she needs to stop.

…is terrified of Bletsian, if he actually exists. She’s not fully convinced that he isn’t some story Giovanni tells just to scare her.
