GOD JAMMER

>The one you're standing in front of. I can tell it's there even without looking at it.
>Ask them how they even got here.
>Ask what an Alchemist of Lanterns is.


Fin: The one you're standing in front of? What's an Alchemist of Lanterns? How did you even get in here anyways?
Trick: I used the front gate? And ugh, look lets not make this weird kid. I'm an Alchemist, I learned like Song stuff from the college of Alchemy and now I work for the God of Lanterns, WICK. He put me on a big long multi-month long quest to find this harp, and considering you're still small, blobby, and had to ask what an Alchemist was, I assume I've been on this job for longer than you've been alive.

>Im not a fan of how sneaky they are being, remind them that while we may be a young one we are still a god, and that harp is part of our domain.


Fin: Even so, that's in our Realm so its technically ours! [Fin backs up a little after asserting themselves because that blade looks awfully sharp]
Trick: I really can't leave without that thing, and I don't want to hurt anyone, especially a baby deity over a harp. How about something that'll help us both out here? I take this back to my boss Wick and I tell him that I talked you into offering this as a gift to him. You get a friend in the pantheon, and I sound really competent and get a promotion or something! We both win.
Fin: Well um...
Trick: I know what you're probably thinking, "How can I trust a girl named Trick? This is like an obvious cautionary children's tale in the making right?" Well that'd be an awfully rude assumption since like, what if your name was Crimes? And everyone is like "Oh man, here comes that God Crimes, I wonder how many Crimes they've committed today?" I have a good relationship with my sister who's name pairs with mine is all.
Fin: What's your sister's name?
Trick: Treat!

>discern the harp


While you think over that offer, you Discern the harp despite its radiant presence. It seems to be a powerful weapon, an instrument that vibrates with the power of Song and has a vivacious spirit welling up inside of it. You can feel a great amount of history that this item has seen, which seems to have only fed into the power of its spirit.

The personality of the spirit seems to be primarily what you'd call "intense" like someone who's stare you could feel on the back of your head if they were behind you.

You briefly had the thought before of awakening it, and you could, but you consider Trick's offer a bit before taking any action. Maybe you could sculpt a cage real fast while talking? But then what? You're sort of alone with your blobby body against this girl and her blade without any backup here. You consider having legs to run away from this confrontation, then you consider arms as well so you don't look like a cryptid. You'll take these into consideration if you don't get popped like a balloon before you get a chance to form your body more.

What do you do? >_
