[002. The Wail of the Banshee -- Part 1?]
(OOC: Banshee scream below! It takes place on the Deck. Feel free to have your characters react to hearing it and let me know if you have any questions.)
[Action Spam -- Open]
[Lydia has been working on this little by little every day since she got to the Barge. She's been hearing all of the deaths and taking notes on her phone of names, murderer and murdered as a way to keep track of who could hurt them as well as how they chose to hurt them. Some of them showed up several times and she knows she needs to warn Stiles and Scott of those, at least.
She knows she's reaching breaking point. After each flashback, it becomes harder to hold back the scream. And that's why she chooses to go up on the Deck today. Because she figures at least she will be the furthest away from the rooms if she can't hold back anymore.
Except she doesn't expect the deck to hit her as hard as it does.
Once she gets there, she feels like she's being slammed with memories. There are so many of them all over the place, she feels like her head is going to explode. There's someone being strangled. Skeletal animals torn someone else apart. Another man's soul is splintered apart. A boy about her age has his throat slit open by a girl. One dies after a fight with the same man who strangled the first and the man whose soul got splintered kills another with a back stab.
It's too much, she can barely make sense of it all. Her hands are covering her ears and it's loud. So loud.
Before she can help it, Lydia screams. It's a loud, agonizing scream that makes her entire body shake and it feels like it's going on forever. She's never screamed for so long before, with the pain of so many.
Once it's over, her knees give under her and she kneels on the floor, hands trembling as she rubs them over her face, trying to catch her breath.]

I'm so sorry, Scott. I'm okay. I just couldn't hold back.

I want to start training. As soon as you're available.

[Sylvanas is beyond not impressed with this child. And it shows.]
[Banshee Spam]
[Lydia, despite being intimidated, isn't impressed either. She holds her head up.]
But it's obvious your claim isn't true, either. And you are supposedly the expert.
