Imbibition (Or: How To Cope With The Dead God In Your Mirror)
When a young Luz Noceda decides to drink the "potion" she finds, she was not expecting to end up with her reflection being replaced with a dark figure in the shape of a horned skeletal beast staring at her. Nor was she expecting to have her dreams filled with nightmarish lands, walking across black fur and twisting veins.
And if it had been anyone else subjected to this, they would see this as an unending hell.
Good thing Luz wasn't just anyone.
Grabbing her glitter pen and sparkly notebook, this small child is going to crack open the mysteries of her new friend "Skulley" and the weird patterns lining them, unlocking the magic she's certain lies within.
***The Titan, Father of Witchkind and Demonkind, The Boiling Ilse itself has spent its afterlife trapped, waiting to succumb to "The Dark Place" where it lays and rots. The most it can do is watch their children be led to their deaths by a false prophet, unable to do a thing to stop it. The only thing distracting it from it's misery are the hallucinations of a small colorful blur whispering questions to it excitedly. A light in the dark, as it were.
But is it just a hallucination?
