Jack touched the pouches at her hips and gulped a little as she looked up the staircase and sighed. She should be used to this by now, but she wasn't, but... that was fine at the same time, she didn't need to be used to it, it was a weird thing to be used to when all was said and done. After all, she was offering up part of her soul for this, but the magic was going to be worth it she knew with a grin. She had been saving up for this for quite some time, and she was excited to get to it at this point. Her first step onto the staircase made her smile a little as she thought about it, she would get some more magic, be more like her mother, and all would be well and done. This was going to be the best part, she thought. 1/5

The two pouches were in her hands as she climbed the steps, and she hoped it was going to work out in her favor at the end of all of this. If all went well she would have a shiny new node that she could cast new magic with, and learn as she went with all of that. Grinning, she nodded and hoped it was going to go well, if not... she would have to deal with a lot more things than she was at the moment at least. Giving a little sigh, she thought of her mother as she climbed the stairs, thinking of how her father had betrayed her. This place always made her think of them, and while she was fond of the memories of her mother, she didn't want to think about her memories of her father. Her nose wrinkled a little as she thought about him, the man had betrayed his own family.
2/5

If all she did was think of him, however, this would probably go wrong, and she didn't want that at all. Giving a little sigh, she kept on climbing, trailing one hand along the macabre depictions on the wall as she went. This was fine, she knew what was going to happen when she got there and did what she had to do, she had done it many times before after all. A small smile escaped her as she touched her node pouch, a new one would join them for now, before next year at least when she could do another one, hopefully. It might just be a hollow node next year, she doubted she could get nine tainted or chaos crystals in a year after all. Those were the last two she would need to complete her set, and she chuckled a little sinisterly to herself as she thought about it for a little while.
3/5

The top of the stairs always saw her a little winded, which was fine but still annoying as all get out, she thought with a small chuckle as she caught her breath. This was almost over, she would be done here in just a little bit and she wouldn't have to worry about it for another year. That was fine for her and all that she knew with a little smile. Jack emptied out one of her pouches on the altar, the crystals clinking together as they hit one another. A sphere mind crystal to hold the shape of the node, eight order crystals, a single prismatic crystal, and a set of healing berries, which she immediately picked up off of the altar and gave the eye. It was fine to forget, if you wanted to die at least, and she smiled a little as she popped them into her mouth and chewed, the sweet juices dripping down her throat.
4/5

The dirty knife was next and she sliced next to the other marks on her arm, dropping blood onto each of the crystals, the mind, the eight order, and the prismatic. The juices still flowed within her as it slowly healed her arm and she knelt down next to the altar, thinking of her mother, picturing her face as best as she could. It was fleeting, it was starting to fade away from her, but that was fine, she would see her again soon she knew with a little smile as she dropped her head down a little, waiting for a piece of her soul to be ripped away from her. Jack waited as the blood dripped from all ten crystals and the healing juices flowed within her, waiting for things to happen as they did and knowing everything was going to be fine in the long run. She smiled a small smile.
5/5
