--- After the Tower's Call ---

Slowly pushing myself off the ground feeling the glass crack under my palms I feel the shards cut my palms more than they were, uncaringly pushing myself to a sitting position and unable to see out of my left eye with a dull throbbing sensation spread through my cheek and eye, sound comes back to everyone as Sirens are going off all around the city. I quickly take stock of everyone around me, some students are injured with bruises, cuts from glass. Focusing on Niona next to me, she has a small cut on her forehead, but that seems to be the extent of the wounds since I was in the way of most of the glass. Elise was already up and next to us in the matter of milliseconds, casting a recovery ability or spell. I feel the shards being removed by the what should be a spell due to the effects and closing up the wounds quickly. I take stock of myself quickly determining that lacerations were everywhere from my face to my stomach. a particularly large shard of glass sticking out of the side of my face where my cheek meets my left eye. 'Shock... no, displaced feeling. Won't heal with that big of a shard in the way...' slowly my hand comes up to the shard touching it for a moment, then grabbing firmly to the shock of everyone around me "Wait NIHR!" I hear Niona shouts quickly from my side, emotionlessly I pull it out, wincing slightly and that's it.. To the horror of some students they lose their stomach's as blood comes dripping down my face gasps of shock escaping some. I heard Elise's breathing hitch the moment I grabbed the shard, along with the extra energy she was channeled into me the moment she realized what I was about to do. 'Quick thinking on her part. Combat veteran indeed.' Slowly the blood stops dripping down my face, however I am still unable to see out of my left eye. 'Not the first time losing sight. Won't be the last.' I stand up from the ground, I feel a buzz from my holo-watch, looking down at the alert that just popped up.

Reading slowly, [Unknown force released by all Tower's around the world, monster breaks expected all citizens are to shelter in place until told otherwise!] , [Tower has released a sound similar to the Great Tower Break, all active and reserve Climbers...] the message breaks off listing actions to take for active and reserves for emergency services. More message start streaming along Frowning I look up at Elise, she has the same frown on her face, but a look of shock quickly replaces that frown when she see's me expressing myself in a visual manner. The air around us vibrates in response as i quickly mentally try to school my features.

One thing about myself and all the lives that I have lived has caused a slight complication. Being aware of all those lives, thoughts, actions has colored my essence, times as supreme beings, or a fundamental force of nature affected my core essence, allowing me to innately access things that normally no one does or should be able to. My very essence I discovered when I came into existence here affected the energy in this reality, which caused the Great Break which had more implications than I could count... One more regret on a very long list of regrets. Even worse is when I physically speak, the weight of my words, is just too much now. Due to this I put heavy seals on all of emotions blunting them as much as I could, innate abilities gained in different lives passive and active, memories were the hardest to seal kind of they are still there but mostly as movie reels feelings of those memories and how I am during those moments drained out and locked away, sometimes they come to my mind when mentally I waver losing focus and dropping back into one or another, or the most common occurrence is in my dreams, nightmares, I blissfully enjoy the times when the dreams are nothing but the Void. Something odd I found is that these other lives, most are not aware, however a small few are aware of the connection. Some subconsciously, others consciously. Some actively work to contribute more to this connection, this [Network]. Tilting my head as I-

My body jerks an imperceptible amount 'Looks like I'll be joining the Climber ranks early, something that can call out to me on that level definitely don't want it stepping foot outside the tower, restrictions in place? Age for officially joining as a Climber without a parents consent, Sixteen. Fortunately I meet that bracket today. All that destruction from a simple call for help.' I stare out at city, which was still recovering from the Great Break just like the rest of the world, that didn't expect to get hit with another wave of destruction so soon.

Looking at Elise I touch my holo-watch and a simple message gets sent, one of several pre-written ones. I turn staring at the Tower for a moment more, before walking to the door. "Nihr! Where are you-" I raise an arm up and point at the watch as I hear hers buzz the moment I am out the door. The message was simple,
