*Recluse* · Updated 04/30/23:

Recluse existed in a sense. She wasn't non-existent but she wasn't really conscious most of the time. Sometimes the minds of someone she'd cared about in life would brush close to whatever this place was and she'd become aware, aware of herself and of the presence that had woken her up but they were was always here in dreams and they were never there for her so they'd pass and she'd fall back into stasis. This time though, this time he called for her. At first it was like any other time, she awoke, aware of herself, aware of her son and painfully aware she had no body, no voice, no scent, no way for him to know she was even there. And then... She did. His desire to see her, his pure want to see her made her manifest, gave her a body to move and be seen in, a voice to speak and be heard in and a scent for him to find her by. She'd have been scared he was dead if she hadn't spent some time when she was allowed to be aware trying to find Kali. Unlike the living she could not inherently sense the dead.

”Ghoul?” She called out gently, blinking against the light. She hadn't seen since she'd passed from the world of the living and she was surprised to find it was something that could still cause discomfort even here, at least until her vision settled. She felt him tugging at her, a pulling in her chest that felt familiar. It felt like when she'd pulled her father through. But she wasn't being pulled into his world, somehow he'd ended up in hers. She could see him, his form in the grass, pink tones almost glowing under the clear night sky above them. She padded towards him, a smile spreading across her face, the love she felt for her children, all her children, filling her up and she felt she might cry from the sensation she'd been denied since death.

”Speech” ’Thought’
