Noah gave a kind smile. "You've got nothing to worry about. We leveled the place with extreme firepower. Enough that even a military bunker would have been rubble. And I promise we will keep you safe and sound. We saved you, and Jamie after all, didn't we?"

"I've got you Amy, I wouldnt make such suggestions if I didn't have full faith in your safety and the process."

"No no no no no nonononono!"

 The brain dance system began to sound its alarm.

Noah reached over and turned the system on and cut the feeds. This time he switched it over to a quiet night on a lake with fireflies at night. He pulled out a slate and dialed her cell. "I've put her on a dock, you need to talk to her, will have you on a cell." He looked at Prom as he started to pull the mobile unit. "Time to go, we waited too long."

 The boy took the phone with trembling hands and spoke with a somewhat breaking voice, trying to say whatever he could to calm her, despite not really knowing what to do himself. That was the situation you found yourselves in as you prepared to leave.

One of the most important things when inside the medical profession was not to show your disagreement to the patient or their family. It helped nothing.

Still the look Noah was getting was very obviously translatable to, Why?

If the aim was to find any trace of the memory they had missed, it was possible to do that without actually taking her there.

If they were doing it to get rid of the Ghost, it was possible to do so without her there. It would be harder, no doubt, but she wasn't required.

And with the site completely leveled, and her body dissolved by Grey, it was hard to even imagine even the tiniest touch of Sympathetic connection remained between her and that location. And even if it did... Mistral could deal with it without them taking Amy there.

He honestly and clearly couldn't think of a possible reason to risk her mental and spiritual state. Hell, he would have been happier not going back himself, given the state of the Shadow after the Star Vampire was done with it.

Still, it was only a look, and he still helped prepare to leave.

But Noah better have a damn good reason, that's for sure, or I will kick his arse for putting a patient through unnecessary suffering. Even if he is a giant, near invincible Dragon.

Noah walked up to a wall case in hand and pressed a claw to the wall. "Hold on Prom, we are going to hit the sub and be on our way. May have to also hook her dad into the call to calm her down." They had to get to the source.

 Together, they got into a much smaller version of the Kaiju system and dove into the water like a submarine to get under the storm. It took a few hours of travel before Noah took to the sky. From below, Promethius could see the ground getting smaller and smaller until he could see the stars above him. When Noah had nearly reached the outer atmosphere, he descended, pretty much falling until he almost reached the ground. Then, it was almost as if gravity stopped for a moment before depositing them gently on the ground in the woods outside the compound.

Noah opened the case and let the unit anchor in place. "Sorry if that was a little bumpy but the whole passenger situation is not something I have practiced." He ensured that she was still well in sleep mode at best, he couldn't fully activate her as she would go right back into trauma without the rest of her. "She is going into trauma because the rest of her is here. Imma get her soul real quick if you can interface with the unit. It's going to be rather trippy as you will get brain danced. It's a nighttime lake house so it shouldn't be too bad."

"Once you're in you will be the bridge between her soul and her memoried. If it all works out we will be able to download the memories of her soul, cut free the torture, and her mind will fully recover from her death."

"The hard part will be to keep her calm as the brain dance was never designed to manage two people at one time. You'll be in the VR, but it wont have her in sleep mode."

"It wont hurt to pray a bit too. Mages do this kinda thing often. And the Moros would be confused about it."

Prometheus still clearly felt this was an unnecessary action, and eventually had to ask, "Surely if the soul went to the Underworld it would have the same effect. The mind and body would develop a new soul as you said Synths do, and she already has most, if not all the memories from her past."

Let alone that they actually had to TELL her that's what we were going to do.

Still, even regardless of the answer he continued the interface process, recognizing that now that they were here, now that they had stressed her, and now she was being Brain Danced, they should at least take this extra step.

Carefully he approached Jamie and said, "Lets see what I can do to make this as pleasant as possible. I promise you, when this is over, she won't remember any of it."

OOC: Not entirely sure what you want me to roll. Just a regular computer roll or is there more to it here.

OOC: Jamie isn't with you guys. He remained on the boat.

Promethius

 As Promethius jacked in to the brain dance, he found himself in a VR simulation. Amy was now on a dock at night, looking out over the water. She wore a white dress with a semi-transparent white shawl, the moonlight highlighting her blonde hair. The wind felt slightly cool and the air smelled lightly of salt.


Noah

 Unlike a synthetic, a human body couldn't fully integrate into the Brain Dance, leaving Promethius still moving in the real world as he did so in the virtual world.

Noah nodded to all of Proms questioning. "I am not a Nephandi, I am a Moros. There is an order to things."

Once Prom had jacked in and was now dually existing Noah pulled out a rather massive hammer and stabbed his handle into the ground. He looked out as his left eye turned red. "Amy dear, are you here?" It was time for the soul work

PM

Noah rolled that giant head of his around. "Grey, sweetheart, do you know how to tie a spirit to a Roomba as your dad did? The Nephandi here are twisted mages from hell itself. They have done horrid things. Or can you print soul bindings so I can free the people here and drag the Nephandi back to give them to Alyssa?"

He nodded to Amy's soul. "We will get this all sorted out, I'll explain everything on the way back." He did, however, reach out and start dragging the weakest of the Nehandi into a glass flask.

PM

He nodded once, "Yes please." He pulled one of his dragon crystals out and crushed it to provide her the needed materials.

 After a few minutes Noah's body prints out a small metal object that looked slightly like a radiator. When he touched one of the Nepahndi ghosts, he literally rips the soul out of the ghost. Grey then absorbs the ectoplasm from the ghost and begins printing another. When the soul touched the radiator, he could see spirit threads begin to sew into the ectoplasm, binding the nephandi to the machine.

 Soon after, she prints another while the third one is dragged, kicking and screaming, into the bottle with the spectre inside.

Noah "pocketed" the two ghost traps and bowed his head to Amy. "Amy, I am Noah. I am very sorry for what happened to you but I want to say thank you for all that you have done. I am here to heal the part of you that is still alive. All people are three persons; Mind, body, and soul."

"I may be able to get you, your mind, and an artificial body all as one person. But to do this, I have to take the mind we have here now, and unify your memories. Extract your soul out of your ghost form and put you into the artificial body. That way, you are still Amy in mind, soul, but with a prosthetic. Like a warrior coming home."

"If all works well, you'll be hugging your dad by the end of the week. and I will pull out all stops. It is the best I can do."

 Amy's ghost stares at the dragon in front of her, finally seeing him truly for the first time and the objects of her vengeance have been dealt with. She listens quietly and ponders the offer and nods solemnly, offering up to him her soul chain.

Noah nodded, "Thank you Amy. You are going to meet a friend who is working with the part of your mind that is still alive in the world. We can't save everyone, but at least today one brave young woman will get her life back." He gently took her chain and lead her back to the worksite that they had set up. He spoke to Prom through his connection to the tech.

"Recovered the soul. She was very brave and had joined with a few to pull the Nephandi we missed as they had put their souls into objects. If you are ready I am going to link you and she, once she is in the brain dance through you it's going to be a bit of a ride."

"And Grey just showed me how their soul jars work so Amy will be her full original mind, her soul will be united to her mind. and we will supply the body." He called up the Kiju buggy and its drunk with a balled up Noah in the back.

"She will be getting the best I can do..."

 Promethius felt a chill in his soul as a second version of Amy, haggard and tired, began to phase in beside him on the dock. You could feel her ghost now bound to your body via a soul tether.

 Lola stirred within as a wave of death magic carried a clear warning she should not interfere in any shape, form, or fashion.

Just before he entered the Brain Dance, Prometheus thought, An order of things...yeah right... even if that was the case, you can't justify bringing Amy here.

As Amy sat on the docks, Prometheus approached, "May I sit with you?" Should she approve he sat beside her and sighed, "I wonder, what would happen if we went fishing here?" Right now it was best to make a simple bit of small talk to see how she feels.

If she reacts angrily, then he has to work to undo any damage, if she reacts more fully embraced in the Braindance then he will continue along that path.

When the Ghost begins to arrive, Prometheus tenses, as he feels Lola begin to freak out. But its both fear and desires...she is afraid, but also she is also aware that death magic that strong can go both ways. And that is something to hope for.

Still, he wasn't quite sure how Amy would react to her Ghost...not that he could prepare her for that.

Noah.... why?

 Amy makes room for Promethius beside her and stares out into the water. They manage to have a short, pleasant conversation before the ghost of Amy appears.

 The other Amy is noticeably alarmed, but the ghostly Amy raises a hand. "It's alright."

"Who are you?"

"I'm Amy."

"That's impossible! I'm Amy!"

"I think we both are."

"How is that even possible?"

"I'm not sure. I think those people did something to us... so, when I died, part of me was left behind. You."

 A bout of freaking out and panicking later...

"What's going to happen to us?"

"I met a dragon who said he was going to give you my memories."

 The Amy beside Promethius froze in panic. "Did... did you say dragon?!?"

 Ghost Amy rolled her eyes and sighed. "Is it really more surprising than talking to your own ghost?"

 Synth Amy paused for a moment, trying to comprehend what she'd just heard. "So, what's going to happen to you?"

 "Well, I saw him pull the soul out of a ghost, so I think it'll be your mind and my soul in one body."

 "Are you really okay with that?"

 "As opposed to being dead?"

 Synth Amy paused and nodded before Ghost Amy spoke. In the real world, it was Promethius that spoke. "We're ready in here whenever you are."

Noah clapped his claws and spoke up, "Right, with all the hub bub girls, but I could not go about this like the people who did this to you. We had to do this another way." Noah was a Necromancer, not a Nephandi. "And be sure to thank Prom, without whom I couldn't do this... at all."

He reached out and tapped Prom on the chest. "Just need to hold on buddy. This is all the easy stuff, it will get a bit harder when we install the memory backup device and other things to make her indiscernible from human."

He waited for a green light from Prom as he would be the one with his hair standing on end. Either way he debated for a moment and threw the switch.

 Despite asking whether or not Promethius was ready, Noah flipped the switch and he immediately felt his brain implant begin to process, dumping images into the Brain Dance as Amy's entire life flashed before his eyes.

 The process took several minutes and was extremely uncomfortable until the images finally ended. Synth Amy was the first to fade out of the Brain Dance and then Ghost Amy before Promethius was finally unplugged.

 Outside of the Brain Dance, Promethius immediately felt himself begin to lose equilibrium (Dexterity + Composure to avoid falling over and vomiting from the experience) but the synthetic that Noah had brought with him (the one he'd been piloting up until now) was standing and moving independently, looking at her new body.

"It worked!

…
…
…

 Why am I in a man's body?"

Noah moved close so Prom had a shoulder to steady on should he need it. He held up one of the wishing marbles the group had been getting paid with as it broke appart. "Using Talions techniques, my best resources, and my own prototype synths. I can't do any better than this."

He looked over Amy, "That's because it's not Synth tech you're in, its Ark tech. Only three such units exist. Think about how you looked and the unit will start adjusting. We still have to put in the weights and your defrag system to protect your mind when we get home. But before that we will call your dad and give him a big update."

"And sorry about all this. The shock was needed as your mind had to be in a receptive state. But let me congratulate you on your recovery."

He looked to Prom, "Now comes your part. As she will need to be taught what it's like to live with tech. Mind taking her back with the sub? I'll free the rest of the souls the Nephandi had trapped, then we can get her through that few upgrades."
