Still Breathing

Report #66 2013, April Second.

Every fiber of my body hurts, so I'm going to try and shorten this post, to spare myself some pain.

I decided to ask Kelevra the last question, before that I swallowed a pill so the headache would ease up, I didn't want to give away the fact that I was sick.

Remember this, my body system does not take kindly to pills.

So I asked him on how you would go about entering the path of black leaves.

He told me that in order to access the path of black leaves, you would require a certain amount of Azoth (Slender Sludge), a certain "Miss Annalee" from Its Days Are Numbered blog wrote that she had dissected the captured Proxies, and found some black substance in their brains which I presume is Azoth. (No fancy medical terms, I'm cutting this post short, my ribs hurt.)  Kelevra was also kind enough to note another detail, that not all Proxies can access The Path, he pointed out that not everyone has the strength to do that.

He also neglected to say that there are also "checkpoints" that serve as an entrance into the Path of Black Leaves and they are scattered all around the world. One of those "Checkpoints" he said, was The Black Forest in Germany (Just like JP noted).

After that I pointed my Colt. 45 at his head and shot him, which then should have followed with the sound of his brains splattering all over the wall, but nope.

To my amazement, his jacket shielded him. His black, leather, fucking jacket came to life, moved, became solid and shielded him just in time from my bullet. At that point, I realized I was fucked.

Next thing, his jacket morphed around his arms, became solid and he broke the chains like nothing. I was still standing there with an open jaw like an idiot, I was then knocked some sense into myself, when I was roughly slammed against the wall, by the same black substance, my shoulder going dislocation ville.

From the beating that he gave me I slightly remember him explaining that, the jacket was all composed of Azoth, how he got such a big amount, and how he is capable of morphing it into an accessory, he didn't neglect to explain. Instead he was all up in my face, which was against the wall by the way, being held there by the big ass black hand which was once a jacket.

At that point I felt my pill go bonkers, and what followed was my throwing up in his face. I hope he swallowed some of that, he must have, because he got pissed, threw me to the ground and started kicking the shit out of my previously assaulted ribs.

He then left my ass unconscious and helped himself to the laptop, posting the previous post. After that he left, I lied there unconscious for a while. When I came to, I had to waste a couple of hours dragging my ass to the room where I kept supplies. Once there, I mended my wounds, and lied on my ass for a whole day, in pain.

Still fucking hurts.

So what did I learn from that experience? Kelevra has a jacket which can morph into anything and become solid at will.

Couple of things I noticed, when it morphs in length it shortens at other parts of the body, which means it has a limited range. It also didn't detach from Kelevra not even once.

How the fuck did he gain such a large amount of Azoth.

The pain is acting up, ending the report here.
