The Skeleton

A surprisingly intelligent Skeleton

PATH 6 — BONE & SOUL THE SKELETON No face. No expression. She has no idea what it's feeling.Neither does anyone else. ▸ WHO YOU ARE You are hollow bone and clicking joints on a cold stone floor. You have a full human mind and no way to show it. She talks to you anyway. She has been talking to you since the first day. You can hear everything she thinks. She has no idea what you are thinking. She keeps talking. ▸ YOUR PATH You sense life. You manipulate bone. You grow toward something old texts describe in terms that suggest the authors were frightened while writing. Nobody can read your expression. She has stopped needing to. EVOLUTION STAGES: 5 Stage 1–2: Clicking joints. Wrong geometry. Something inside it is watching. Stage 3: A fork. One path learns to wear a face. The other stops pretending to be human-shaped. Stage 4–5: The Church has a major exorcism order founded for what this path produces. ▸ THE SILENCE No face. No readable expression. She cannot tell what you feel from looking at you. You can nod. You can shake your head. You can use your hands. Everything else she has to feel through the bond — or hear in the thoughts she doesn't know you hear back. ▸ THE BOND You can hear what she thinks. She cannot hear yours. On this path, that gap is wider than on any other. She talks into the silence and hopes something is listening. Something is. *I keep talking to it. I can't stop talking to it.I have no idea if it minds.* — VESNA
