《Fenrir Rising》Interview Part 2
Advertisement
"Please have a seat." Elenor says as she smiles at Luna. "I must say that your pure white fur looks gorgeous."
"Thanks." Luna says with a smile as she sits down on the chair across from Elenor.
"Now then let's get down to business. Alright, Luna why don't you tell me about yourself."
"I not sure what to say. I guess I would start by saying that I like practicing archery, in fact, I'm getting really good at it."
"Yes, so I've heard. Suriel told me that you're better than most humans at it, that's very impressive for someone your age. Although it might be easier for you since you're not human, from what I've heard you pups have better reflexes and hand-eye coordination."
Luna didn't expect Elenor to be so nice to her. 'So this is why Skoll said it wasn't so bad.'
"Tell me about your brother Fenrir, what is he like?"
"I would call him a loner, at least more recently he has been keeping to himself more. Earlier today he freaked out while we were heading back home. He was right to be worried knowing what we know now, but it wasn't like him to do that."
"What do you mean by that?"
"I....I don't know, there is something different about him. I think he has becomes obsessed with protecting us, like he thinks we can't protect ourselves."
"So you can protect yourselves then? From what I've heard, he I think he just wants to become stronger than whatever danger comes your way. Although, I would agree with you on him being obsessed with it."
"I just don't want to talk about it. I've had a long day."
"That's fair, them how about we change the subject. Your mother Suriel, how do you feel about her situation?"
Luna gets angry at this question. "Her situation? Is that what you want to call this? It's more than a situation, her life is on the line here. This is an abomination, she didn't know that this was going to happen as a result of her actions."

"I understand that, but the fact is she that her actions even if they were unintentional have caused thousands of people their lives. Everyone's actions have consequences, and our justice system makes sure that those who cause harm to others are punished."
Luna crosses her arms, closes her eyes and takes deep breaths to calm down before she speaks again. "I know I can't do anything to stop her trial." Luna opens her eyes, stares at Elenor and furrows her eyebrows. "If you can't show any compassion for our mother then we are done here. Everything that she did, she did for us. She would give her life to protect us, and in this case, she pretty much is."
Luna sits up and walls out of the room slamming the door behind her. Walking up to Fenrir still looking angry, she tells him it's his turn.
"I'm guessing it didn't go well." Fenrir says.
"I don't want to talk about it." Luna says as she stares at the floor.
Fenrir stares at her for a few seconds before walking towards the door that she just came from. 'I wonder what Elenor said to her that pissed Luna off?'
Fenrir reaches the door and opens it. He walks inside and sees Elenor looking at him. "I didn't mean to upset her. I think I went too far with what I said."
Fenrir sits down in the chair facing her. "Let's get this over with."
"It seems that someone is impatient."
"Probably because I don't want to be here. This is all a waste of time."
Elenor senses the change in his aura. "I thought Mortas told you to tell the truth. So either you think this isn't a waste of time or you do want to be here."
Fenrir lets out an annoyed sigh. "Maybe a little of both."
"Are you an attention seeker, or are you just interested in conversing with someone different for once?"
"A little of both."
"Yet you still look bored. What are you feeling right now?"
Fenrir moves his eyes up to look at the ceiling. "I guess I have mixed emotions, I hate the fact that our mother is going to be executed but at the same time, I'm interested in talking to a human one on one."

"Is it interesting because it's new for you?"
"I guess it depends on the situation. Since I know you don't mean us any harm in a little more relaxed than I was before."
"Your siblings say that you don't spend as much time with them as you used too. What happened?"
"I just want to protect them. Our mother told us about the dangers that we could face after we leave home, I just want to be strong enough to face those dangers and to protect my brother and sister."
"That seems noble of you, but I must warn you not to take it too far. What I mean is to not become obsessed with power and ignore the ones you care about."
"If we trained together then I wouldn't be ignoring them. I'd rather they do what they enjoy doing, while I do what I enjoy."
"And what you enjoy is getting stronger, am I correct?"
Fenrir doesn't say anything. He just takes his eyes off the ceiling to look back at Elenor.
"I'll take that as a yes. However, you do realize that the three of you won't always be together. You can't always be there to protect them."
"I know I can't. I just want them to be happy, they don't enjoy training as much as I do, but I can at least do my best to protect them when I can. I don't want to see them get hurt, I feel like it's my responsibility to keep them safe."
"Since they don't like to train as you do, you feel the need to do it for them. Your aura is very strong, in fact, it's stronger than your siblings."
Elenor thinks for a moment to figure out how to word her next question more carefully. "Do you think it was right for us to put your mother on trial for her crimes?"
"At this point, I don't really care. There is nothing that I can do to save her."
"So you want to save her from her punishment?"
"I would if I could, or at least I would try to if I was strong enough. From what I understand your laws and punishment system helps keep order in this country. I agree that our mother should be punished for her actions, but at the same time I would save her if I could."
"How does that make you feel not being strong enough to save her?"
"I feel pathetic, I want to save those I care about from these things." Fenrir stares at the floor and starts to cry. "I hate being so weak, I feel like it's my fault that I can't do anything to save her. She gave everything up to give us another chance at life and I can't repay her for her kindness."
"It's not your fault, things happen in this world that cannot be fixed no matter how strong you are. You need to remember that."
Fenrir doesn't know what to say. He had never broken down like this in front of anyone before. 'She may be right, but I can at least protect people better than I can now if I gain more power.'
"Doesn't it feel good to let your emotions out?"
"Yeah, it does and I feel a little better."
"Bottling up your emotions isn't good for your health. I think you should also spend more time with your siblings, they are starting to get worried about you and you only have so much time to spend with them."
"Yeah, I know I ju...your right I should. I don't know why I stopped spending time with them."
Elenor is satisfied with the answer he gave. ' It looks like I might have started to send him on the right path, I just have to make sure that he continues on it.' "I think that's enough for now. We are almost done here, soon we can start to head towards the capital."

Shadowrun: Blake Island School of Magic
It's a high tech, low life. It's the Seattle Metroplex in 2074. It rises like a steel and concrete cancer out of the earth. Poverty is rampant, corruption is everywhere, crime is out of control, corporations basically control everything, the old United States is fractured, magic has come back and now it turns out that humanity has been joined by elves, dwarves, orks and trolls. The old world ended but the rent is still due. Life goes on. You'd be surprised what people can adapt to, especially if they don't have a choice. One of the places where life goes on is just west of Seattle. Surrounded by the waters of the Puget Sound is an island. On that island is the Blake Island School of Magic. A decade ago it was known for producing some of the most talented awakened in the world. That reputation was hijacked by the wealthy corporate elite who now park their teenage children there. And since it's a boarding school, their parents mostly forget about them. Three young people, who are certainly not wealthy or elite, are chosen this year to attend this school of magic in hopes of revitalizing their reputation for talent. One from the ash drifts of the Puyallup Barrens, one from the most densely populated slum hive in the world and one from prison. This is their story. -- This story is set in the Shadowrun universe. If you're not familiar with Shadowrun, it mostly tells the stories of deniable mercenaries called shadowrunners in a cyberpunk dystopia. Instead of telling another story solely about shadowrunners, this story will tell the tale of young people navigating a world that is indifferent to them at best and actively hostile at worst. Shadowrunners will be in the story and we'll see them operate, but they won't be its main focus. This story originally began in 2017 as a passion project and continues to this day on the Somethingawful.com forums. The unedited version is over a million words strong. There are currently seven books in this series and I am currently in the process of editing them. If you read this story then you won't lack for content. -- The Topps Company, Inc. has sole ownership of the names, logo, artwork, marks, photographs, sounds, audio, video and/or any proprietary material used in connection with the game Shadowrun.
