just started Dark Souls Remastered, which I’m trying to go into as blindly as I can, in this day and age
but it’s a blast, so far, and the raw terror of losing your souls and humanities is overwhelming
interesting to see the greater emphasis on blocking and parrying compared to Elden Ring, too

"What about you?" Kedia starts for the door.
"Time is of the essence, of course, but we can talk on the way there. What did you dream of?"

"Hope is a good emotion. Hold on to that."

Kedia stands over the body and psychically inspects it.

A little metagamey, but Indaria was wearing the artifact at the time she died. Though Stirk could probably recon that if preferred.

I think it would be more in line with Stirk's GMing style to see what happens if the thing gets unknowingly tossed into a furnace because Marco ordered the crew to not touch the corpse, though.

Kedia frowns, though her helmet doesn't show anything. Who does this alien think he is, bringing up something like that? And does he want clarification, or comfort?

The request brings to mind memories which may be best unsaid, and even worse stories which should at most be whispered. The answer to that question was a fulcrum which moved the fate of the galaxy millennia before Marco's species left the trees.

She subconsciously tenses up, unhappy to be reminded of chaos so soon after dealing with that demon. She answer doesn't have to be complicated, though. Dumb it down into Gothic so the alien can understand, and don't bring up anything that the likely-armed chaplain would complain about.
"Yes." The eldar gives the answer stood stock-still at pseudo-attention.

Somewhat dumbfounded that the Avatar of a god came here without knowledge of the darkness, Ar'qita responds. "In this context, 'The Darkness' is a physical manifestation of a metaphysical force of entropy which either has an ethical framework that is antithetical to our own or simply nonexistent. It is the reason why there are no worlds that are older than our own generation. In the age of Genesis, our patron deities came to an agreement to collaborate in the fight against the Darkness and it is the reason I have come here. The way in which is manifests in this world is different from my homeland, so the analytical data I have collected in our skirmish is the extent of what I know about the local iteration of it."

"Where'd it come from? It didn't used to be here!"

Lots of things are dead or made out of things which are dead, so I guess it's less exhausting to just say "this structure has died and let's not worry too much about what it is now."
After all, all of you was once chemicals which were in something that died. Are you dead? If not, death is something in the past.
