96 Reunion (2/2)
Quickly Gresham received confirmation that he was the one they came to see. Sparing no time for any extra chatting Gresham made his way to the man on the floor to speak with him.
”Hello, my name is Gresham Stokes I'm one of the people tasked to inspect you Mr... uhh. My apologies, but I was never told your name.
The man seated on the floor turned his whole body towards Gresham to look up at him easier as he replied, ”My name is Doran Russell, but that name sounds alien to me so when you speak to me please just call me Howard”.
”Alright then Howard I'm going to ask you a few questions, but I'm going to skip all the preliminary questions like where you live and other stuff like that because I'm sure our people figured stuff like that out a long time ago. What I want to know is where did you obtain information on dozens of unheard-of gods before and I want only the truth”.
When Gresham finished speaking he pulled out two small bells from his pocket. When the bells clanked together Howard could hear their sound from every direction while the rest of the room remained silent from everyone else. The bells created a hypnotic sound that hypnotized those who heard their chime.
”Now tell me what I want to know”. Gresham waited for Howard's reply but was by what Howard said.
”You know that's not going to work on me. If you want to know something just ask I won't lie”.
Startled by the mystic items inability to work on Howard Gresham pulled out his gun in one swift motion ready to shoot Howard in the face.
Howard was surprised by the sudden change of events so was everyone else in the room. Before Gresham could pull his trigger he was stopped by Peter.
”Gresham that's enough let go of the gun”
Coming back into reality Gresham noticed what he had done, ”sorry guy the mystic item I have called dreamer bells has a side effect where it makes the user a bit rash”.
There are many kinds of mystic items in the world some made by men others created from strange coincidences. They could be produced in the middle of a fierce battle, the clashing forces of elements, from the deaths of powerful magi and cultivators. Even failed experiments could produce mystic items with strange effects.
Not all mystic items are useful most mystic items do have side effects. The side effects could be weak or strong and the strength of the item it's self isn't related to the mystic items side effects. The thing that is used to make mystic items is called a characteristic.
The appearance a characteristic takes after forming is influenced by many factors many of them are still unknown. After forming a characteristic it could then be imbued into an item of choice unless it has already randomly fused itself with another nearby item.
Some mystic items are so dangerous that they must be sealed away. Many of the more dangerous mystic items require unique sealing methods to keep the items power from influencing the surrounding area. The sealing method could be very simple like burying an item underground.Just like the incense burner Desmond stole or far more complex methods.
