《Murder Is Fun || a Hermitcraft murder mystery AU》Part 10

"We should.. we should continue before the mobs find away around the dirt"
Iskall turned around, starting to walk along, the other hermits following along after having a moment of silence for thier dear Canadian friend.
And so they continued, not taking any time to 'relax', all of them too eager to get out of here and soon.
"Etho is dead"
Grian mumbled, walking beside mumbo and slightly dragging his feet. the Blonde's eyes alredy bloodshot from the other hermits deaths and shed tears.
"Hey G, I'll figure out a way to bring them back"
Xisuma tried to get some hope back to Grians eyes, looking away when he didn't get a reaction.
Iskall sighed, walking in front of the group and staring at Mumbos sword, slowing down abit to give it back to him, mumbling a 'Thanks' before speeding up again. Tango, walking a few blocks behind Iskall, staring at his hands, flashback of Impulse's death flashing in his brain, getting a silent sob from the red eyed male.
"Tango? are you alright?"
Xisuma cought up with the fellow hermit, getting a nod from Tango, though they both knew that was a lie.
the hallways filled with silence, turning every few blocks and a few rooms scattered around the area, iskall looking in to make sure they don't miss anything.
"I'm getting tired"
Grian yawned, leaning on Mumbo Jumbo for support.
"Hey X? mind if we take a break?"
Mumbo called, getting a nod from the Brit. everyone sat down on the cold concrete floor, Grian leaning on Iskall as a pillow, the Swede too tierd to even care.
After less then an hour the hemrits had all fallen asleep, Mumbo being the only sleepless one, sitting around, staring out the never ending night.
the mustached male roamed around, walking into the room they would pass next, freezing once the sound of a trip wire echoed in his head, his hands shaking though he was too scared to move, the sound of TNT being the only thing in his head.

[Mumbo Jumbo blew up]
The explosion was deafening, the echo as bad as the explosion itself, waking up everyone.
"Mumbo? Mumbo!"
Grian was shaking his lifeless friend, a few tears rolling down his face, his eyes dry with the never ending tears from the other hermits deaths.
"Oh my God- he looks like he went through a blender-"
Tango mumbled, staring at the after math. the scene was like a car crash, a disturbing sight but you just can't look away.
"Mumbo - please no-"
Iskall was on his knees, tearing up beside the fellow architects.. one being dead that is..
The half cyborg sat there, looking over burns and tears over his friend, he grabbed the Diamond sword laying there, hiding it in his inventory. Grian, now hugging Iskall, mumbled somthing, getting Iskalls attention.
" Hm?"
Iskall looked up, looking over Grian with tearful eyes.
"Can we move on..?"
Grian mumbled, standing up with shaky legs, getting a nod and another hug from Iskall, the two walking away from Mumbo.
"Are you.. are you guys alright?
Tango asked, looking away, realizing his not making anything better.
" Can we just.. get going? "
Iskall mumbled, getting a nod from Xisuma and Tango, the group of 4 silently walking away from the scene, Tango looking back every few seconds.
Silence filled the hallways yet again, every now and then a sniffle or pause from the architects.
" Xisuma?"
Tango asked randomly, catching up with the brit, getting his attention.
"Yes Tango?"
Xisuma looked over, wondering what his American friend needed answers for.
"Sorry if this sounds mean, but how ARE you do chill? you've witnessed 7 hermitcraft perma-die"
Tango frowned, raising a brow as he tilted his head like a confused puppy, walking along as he waited for X to come up with an answer.
"I don't know Tango, I really don't"
Xisuma half lied, knowing that if he wasn't looked up to and the so called leader of the group, he might as well be balling on the ground.
Tango nodded, looking away as they continued walking, the never ending question of 'Who's Next?'

Lmao I forgot I should probably update this stuff and write

Old Riding Author Lunatic Asylum
Just off the A19, in the dark, incomprehensible lands known as Yorkshire, there lies a town. A town where shadow-silent alleys glint with the secret hunger of knives. Where blood soaks the chipboard window shutters of forsaken terraces stretching off into the night. Where the smog-choked air rattles with the depraved laughter echoing out from clubs that can only generously be described as post-apocalyptic. Well, that’s Middlesbrough. But down the A19 a bit (an impossibly long way down, actually) there lies another town: Raughnen, in the ancient, forgotten Old Riding. It is an equal match in muggery and thuggery alike. It also has magic spells and pointy wizard hats. And now, across the miles and across all sensibilities, a pretty nasty power (a magic one) calls out for its pretty nasty counterpart (a decidedly unmagic one): a proper sound Boro lad. Nothing good can come of it. This is a collection of one novella and four connected short stories: I. A Yorkshire Summoning II. Old Riding Day Trip (the novella) III. Heaven is a Parmo IV. Death on the 66 V. Death on the 257 In total, this comprises 34 chapters totalling around 35,000 words, so try not to worry. It will be over relatively quickly. There are three more short stories with more tenuous links to the core collection: Rush, Paper Round and Scenario 79: Sausage Fingers, all of which can be found in my collection Short Records of Misadventure. Reading these may allow you to make more sense of certain parts of the story, if any sense is to be made at all. NOTE: There are instances of prejudice and discrimination within these stories, including elements of sexism and ageism, which are purely the thoughts and actions of the characters involved and which certainly do not reflect my own views on these matters. ANOTHER NOTE; A WARNING, PERHAPS: This can get a bit weird. In less than 150 pages, we have four viewpoints, first and third person narratives, and a completely disjointed plot with lots of gaps, dead ends and no real resolution. Also ZERO lunatic asylums. It's all a bit odd. If that sort of thing isn't your cup of tea, which it most likely isn't, it might be best to move on now.
8 190Second Chances
Given a chance for reincarnation and tasked by the System, I picked the Sidhe for this second life. A world of Seelie, Unseelie, Kelpie, Redcaps, and Slaugh. The Gods of the Tuantha de Danann forced into sleep, the people forced to remain locked on their home planet. In this latest Book, Teigh Mac de Beleros y Cyronax has saved his people from stagnation and ruin. His denouncement of Olympus and Asgard before the Universal Senate has allowed the Sidhe to break the ties that constrained them, and the chains that kept them rooted to their home world. But the Sidhe and the Tuatha de Danann are unique across all multi-verses and all Pantheons. They have the unique ability to travel anywhere and anywhen. But this ability comes at a cost. The Tuatha de Danann do not have incarnations seeded across each Universe. There is only one Tuatha de Danann, and when Athena and Loki come to Teigh with the tales of a plot that will destroy not only the Tuatha de Danann but the multi-verse, he removes his crown to once more face off against Zeus and Odin and save his people. Second Chances has been taken down for editing and a major rewrite...
8 138The Choices We Make
The Moldy Donut is a derelict gateway through space that links two distance solar systems. It has been made obsolte by cheaper jump drive technology and is mostly abandoned. But a change in resource availability has made ring gates such as the Moldy Donut relevant again. A crew of technicians must battle the Donut's risks in order to bring just one of her segments back online.
8 80To Be Cursed
Scourcers wouldn't be scourcers without chi. The Zagrans wouldn't be Zagrans without scourcers. And Karma, well she wouldn't be Karma without without her father. After King Karmic proposes that he sends his youngest daughter, Karma's kid sister, off to assassinate the Zagran prince, Karma can't keep herself from stepping up. She uses this moment not only to save her sister from certain death, but to gain an understanding of the creatures that everyone keeps calling beasts. She has six weeks to kill the prince, six weeks to explore things unknown, six weeks to figure out why King Karmic really wants the Zagran lands.
8 223Flatlander
A sell-sword struggles to find meaning in a world filled with pain, violence, and loss. Noble Houses rule from Hoverstones that loom over the Flatlands and the Highlands; they act in their own interests, playing politics and more. Tribesmen roam free, a true terror to all they prey upon. Elves scour the lands for objects of great power. And there are rumors of dragons, reemerging at the beckon call of new masters.... Written in a style similar to Game of Thrones, though different and unique, Flatlander is a serial novel filled with uncertainty, peril, and, for the bold, fortune. Enjoy!
