That does bring to attention that you have been cry-- leaking... no... activating? um... you've been leaving a trail while the hawk carried you.

This serves as a convenient line of breadcrumbs home.

Then, once you get there, you might finally be able to start your quest.

Well, plan B is to keep things nice and tidy so that the hawk may spare your life and raise you, kind of like a common cuckoo.

You pick up a feather and dust off some of the eggs, planting a delicate apologetic smooch on the egg you tried to push to doom.

> Do you have any noteworthy skills?
>>1096771

Um... Not... really...

That's sort of the reason why you want to start a quest. What a better way to see what you are made of than puzzling a perplexing prison? Or escaping a haunted hotel? Or hunting ghosts? Or traveling through space? The list goes on!...

Woof... It did not cross your mind until now how high up you are. It's a good thing you didn't just hop off the nest willy-nilly and plunge to misfortune.

The first thing that comes to your mind is flapping these feathers like wings, but then you had the idea of climbing down carefully, which does sound like a much safer idea. After all, you never learned to fly.

You wake up, groggily, to the smell of hot soup and a warm bed.

"Soup?" you ask.

???: "A mulligan, I think. I forgot what I put in it. Sometimes if something tastes nice, but you don't want to eat the whole thing, it's good to keep it around, and throw it in a pot later.
"Kind of like stories."

You can smell the meaty stew from upon your beddage, and you must admit it does not smell half bad. You also ask if you can help with the soup.

???: "I want some nice spices, but you would be eaten by a bug or stepped on by a hoofed animal probably."

You try to argue, but as you explain, it does come to your mind that you found yourself in this predicament by being carried into a hawk's nest.

???: "I didn't know that; I just thought you looked small."

Well that's just plain rude.

You ask your host who they are.

???: "I think I am a stock broker. Or maybe that was in another story? Am I a lawyer? I'm something. Or maybe I'm not."

You ask him, "Are you not sure?"

???: "No, I'm one-hundred percent certain that i might be a stock broker or a lawyer. Maybe."

What's up with the hat? Is he a gnome? You inquire.

???: "This hat keeps me tethered to this plane.
"I exist in every story--just past the margins. Even when I can't exist, I'm there. Beyond the margin of possibility.
"Surely you can only see me because you are not in a story. Your story hasn't begun yet."

That much is obvious. You haven't been able to start a quest since you got dropped into a hawk's nest. That being said, you would like to return home soon so that you can begin your quest...
After you finish your soup. The soup smells pretty good.
You ask what happens when he takes off the hat.

???: "Spacetime will tear, creating an implosion with the force of ten gigatons of trinitrotoluene."

You gasp. Really?

???: "I don't know. I haven't taken it off in recent memory."

He takes a sip first.

He seems to be taking it just fine, so you pull yourself by the bootstraps and brace.

Truth be told, you had been saving up your name slot for when you start a quest, but if you are going to interact with Treachery, not having a name is going to be increasingly problematic.

So, you introduce yourself.

Spite (You): "My name is Spite."

Treachery: "Oh, of course. You're Spite. I'd recognize that name anywhere."

Spite (You): "I... uh... came up with it just now. Do you know someone else named spite?"

The soup is technically immediately available but Treachery seems to be troubled by the notion of drinking it straight from the pot right now.

Treachery is helplessly attempting to explain to the newborn bird that the potted soup is too hot to drink, as the chick remains shaking the house with its bustling chirps.

The chick is just going to have to wait for it to cool down like everyone else, though. When that time comes a ladder may need to be involved.

Trophallaxis, i.e. mouth-to-mouth feeding, comes to mind with such a young bird, but your mouth is ambiguously small for that.

Amongst the noise, you remember that you still have a dream to chase.

Hawk: "TSEE-EEEEEEEEE-ARRRR"

The call of the bird shakes you to your core. She was bound to be back at some point.

You really, really want to get back home and start a quest. However, as much as it wrings your heart, there is a real possibility of a vengeful hawk reclaiming her chick and tearing you to shreds.

It is likely a safe bet to stay put for the night.

It also appears that the feeding situation has been graciously handled by Treachery (ladder, soup bowl).

Just the past few minutes have been twisting your stomach about your lackluster home life, insofar that just a blanket and ladder have shown Treachery to be wealthier than you.

Maybe your quest can wait, and you can rear this chick in this safe little shelter.

Spite (You): "Um, Treachery?"

Treachery: "Hello."

Spite (You): "Is it alright if I stay here?"

Treachery: "Well, you are standing where you are. 'here,' perhaps. You tell me if that's alright."

Spite (You): "This is your house... right?"

Treachery: "Ownership is a social sense, like money, beauty, justice, trust, and gender."

Trudging through your host's belongings, you exhume a few things of note:

x510 Clubs
Treachery: "Those are Clubs. I figured out how to use these. You hand them to a person, then they decide it belongs to them. After that, they may treat you with a good or a service."
It's currency; you're familiar.
You've never had any but you reckon this is enough to buy, like, one good hat.

x1 Saw
Treachery: "I think that's a remnant from the construction of this fine abode."
And the stain on it?
Treachery: "I cook with what I have on hand."

x1 Orange
Treachery: "A little snack. I picked it yesterday and it looks fine so you may take it if you like. Here's a secret: I've heard good things about orangesauce. It's like applesauce but with oranges."

x1 Skin cream!
Treachery: "You can take that, I guess. I don't have skin. I'm made of pumice and something else."

x11 Birth Certificate

An orange to share and birth certificates to snoop through for funny names? Well that's just a fun evening in. Imagine where these people are now.

As for the skin cream, how is your skin? Any rough patches after falling out of a tree? Should check baby hawk too.

You apply the refreshing skin cream, for health.

[SKIN HEALTH UP]

You share a half of the orange with Treachery.

Treachery: "Tasty."

You hunker down, reading the birth certificates like a nightly story. You imagine fake scenarios each person might have been in.

There are some interesting characters here--

Guffaw McMallard. Olaf Pleather.
Them, they survived some awful weather.
Zeeby Zoob. Zooby Zeeb.
One's a newb, one's a dweeb.
Valery Smirnov. Jedgar Mantissa.

As you read the names you nod off to sleep.

You dream...

You dream of escaping a prison with meticulously crafted puzzles and riddles; of cleverly cobbling tools and trinkets to open contrived and absurd doors and rooms; of making your way out of the darkness and into the light.

You dream of lending a helping hand in the end times; of being a vagabond of the apocalypse; of being an angel--a beacon of hope for those in need.

You dream of being a swashbuckling pirate, plundering treasure with a peg-legged stride; of facing the rolling seas and giant monsters; of discovering legends of lands far beyond Carcosa; of becoming a legend yourself.

You dream of felling an evil overlord; of sharpened blades and epic clashes; of magic and power; of winning the good fight; of becoming the strongest there ever was.

You dream of the looming threat, The Hawk. That she took you so far from home. That every step outside could be your last before being torn to shreds.

You dream of your kind host, Treachery. That he keeps you here forever. That he's luring you away from your fulfilment. That you remain a maiden to the unnamed bird for the rest of time.

Oh god... Apron-clad and living in the service of this thing that was going to EAT you. ONE MILLION BEES APPEAR. BZZZZ!!! "Hmmm, yes i do think ogo bo gogo," says baby bird. BZZZZZ!!! "Buy my metronome!" says Zeeby Zoob. BZZZ BZZZ!!! OH FUCK OH SHIT. THEY'RE EVERYWHERE. They're in your EYES. They're in your EARS. AHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Through it all, a bee in your ear whispers a question that cuts through all the busy buzzing: "Who the shit is Spite?"

In a sudden bout of lucidity, you find yourself able to navigate through time.

...

You reach into the far future, but not much is certain. You see the sky shimmering with billions of stars; you've never seen them in the sky before. It's pretty.

All the stars you've seen walk among people. Maybe someday, they decide that they've done all they must on the island, and please to venture elsewhere, upwards. You've never talked to a star before, but your impressions of them have been ambivalent.

The patterns in the otherwise bleak sky calm your nerves, and you feel as though you are more comfortable coming to the present.

You reach into the nearer, predictable future. You see a figure. A wanderer? Perhaps.

A feathered terror calls from above.

"SCRAW!!!"

(???): "T-t-t-the hawk!!!!"

The hawk descends on the figure. Their bag nearly blows away in the downwash. The hawk glares upon them, inches away from their face.

(Hawk): "SCRAW! Hello, Mr. McMallard. It's been a while since we've talked face-to-face."

(Mr. McMallard): "W-what are you going to do with m-m-me?"

(Hawk): "Allow me to tell you a story. I had left a delicious meal for my precious children, while I had some emergency tax business to attend to. I return to find one of my eggs GONE, and a curious crater at your doorstep. SCRAW! My eyes are much better than my nose, Mr. Mallard, and I could not find my child anywhere."

(Mr. McMallard): "W-with all due respect, ma'am. I'm p-presently returning for the summer! I haven't been home since last f-f-fall!!"

The hawk grabs Mr. McMallard and pins him to the ground.

(Hawk): "Don't play coy with me. I can smell your cooking from the top of the tree, and my nose isn't quite as sensitive as my eyes. If it were not for the laws of the palace I would plunder you for every morsel. Trust me when I say this is the civil way I can do this. SCRAW!"

(Mr. McMallard): "S-someone's in MY house!? I swear I haven't been home for MONTHS!"

(Hawk): "Regardless of how--it is YOUR house. I would like my egg OUT of there or I will break your door such that I can do so myself. You have until noon. SCRAW."

Mr. McMallard scrambles down the beaten path to his house.

His house.

Where you are sleeping.

Your prophetic vison fades to a heavy blackness, littered with countless blue sparkles.

You hear a voice.

Treachery: "I made pancakes."

The sweet bready aroma of pancakes soothes you.

Among many things, you wonder where the hawk is right now.

I think it might be time to say goodbye to the baby. But also maybe don't go outside until momma hawk picks up her chick.
