Baltasar Nilsen (2024)

Your search ends, long after the monstrous howls had stopped, and after the flow of blood had ceased.

Arlin and Cyrus lay by the body. Though it didn't resemble the man you searched for, the scraps that still clung to the massive, inhuman form of matted fur and sharp teeth were reminiscent of Baltasar's heavy coat and stole. The bandages wrapped over its eyes were as close to a guarantee as you would get tonight.

There would be no official burial. No gathering, no ceremony. Only a site of quiet in the woods by the Northreach vents, and perhaps a marker in the town.

Rakuyo had been found, safely and efficiently relocated to the Sandman's home via a Puerta portal. The swordsman was dirty with beast blood, but unharmed.

Lucas Borja lays near them, pinned to the ground by Milo. Tears and blood streaked his face, and his almost unhinged laughter had quieted. You would see a look of peace and sorrow on his face, his chest rising and falling evenly with each breath.

Though many may attest to the contrary, Lucas would be insistent in his account of that night.

"Baltasar lost himself to his Banner Role curse, or so I had thought as I tried to fetch help. As it turns out, he wasn't so lost that he couldn't pull my sword into his gut."

If his hand was free, he would clap his hand to his forehead, almost swooning as he lay in the darkness of the woods, rays of moonlight slicing between the branches above. He looks like a dying saint. Certainly, he feels like one. Like a blessed martyr.

"...We've finally done it. We are free." he would whisper hoarsely. The bullet in his shoulder and his dislocated joint twinge with every shake of his body. In a few days, Lucas would be brought to justice for all the town to see, and his dedication to his own cause would be tested.

"...I've done it..."

His departure was sudden. It had all the signs of a routine trip into the woods, as a man like him was wont to do most of his hunting alone, early in the morning.

His housemates, Lucas and Rakuyo had both departed to hunt for themselves, a few hours after Baltasar had left Virulen. Night falls, and only Lucas returns from the Northreach Vents, bleeding and haggard.

"He's done it now, the old sod. Baltasar is in grave danger. I-I couldn't find Rakuyo. I must return to the forest posthaste."

He only asks a handful of people for aid. Some go with him, and others are organized into separate search parties in order to cover more ground.

As you find yourselves walking deeper and deeper into the forest, an unearthly howl meets your ears, barely resembling that of any animal. Echoing into the night, you can feel the timbre of it, the desperation racing up your spine. In the night, the trees around you almost look like wizened fingers, monstrous hands that threaten to close in and crush you.

Stay safe. Stay together.

And pray that whatever has taken Baltasar Nilsen does not take you too.

Lucas had returned to their house on the Spanich wedge on Saturday evening. There was nary a word between them, and the most dialogue that passed in the house since then was the timid greetng of 'okaeri' spoken by Rakuyo. Their truce had resumed, though it was as raw and rocky as things had been on the first few days.

It was clear from Lucas' face that he was all to ready to brush things under the rug and dismiss any aggressions as water under the bridge. Baltasar found it difficult to cooperate.

He could feel it. The end for one or both of them was rapidly approaching. Every still moment in the house sent their hearts palpitating. Even Rakuyo had an inkling-- for his usual requests to spar and fight had lessened. Just as well; Lucas was meant to be on good behavior until he left.

How he plans to return to Span without evading arrest, Baltasar doesn't exactly know. But he knew Lucas would find a way. Perhaps it wasn't foolproof, but the man was surprisingly stubborn. Baltasar knew all too well.

Baltasar tried to be a good man. Tried to repent. Put himself on the line, knowing there was much even a lost soul like him could survive. He tried, but he never felt entirely 𝐜𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐧.

There was too much blood on his hands. His sins were simply too heavy.

"...where..." Baltasar croaks out, voice hoarse.

His throat was sore, as if he'd spent last night screaming his lungs out. His surroundings were dark, unfamiliar-- but the air carried the scent of wood and liquor. Dried blood, yes-- that of his own. Was he in a cellar?

There are horrible, stinging pains all over his body, as well as a pounding headache, as if someone had been drilling into his skull. The ache that plagued his body seemed to extend to his very bones. Little did he know that the freshly bandaged wounds he bore were from several throwing knives, of a make he was familiar with. The more he begins to wake up, the more invasive the agony.

'Welcome back to the land of the living.' comes a familiar voice. 'I have to say, it took me ages to try and fix you up. A right nightmare, with how strong you are.'

"...Rodolfo." Baltasar says, trying to move, and quickly finding out that he was unable to.

'Yes, that's me.' Rodolfo answers meekly. A Knight of Tantiago, almost unable to hold his own against a mere priest. 'Sorry about the restraints. And the headache. You just wouldn't sit still, I'm afraid. And that transformation of yours--you almost took a chunk out of me there!'

A beat, and Rodolfo's joviality drops like a stone.

'Now, I do have a question that's been weighing heavily. And a confession before that.' he says. Though Baltasar could barely see it, his mouth twisted into a bitter smile.

"...I can take it. Just spit it out."

'I've been...following your for quite some time now. All these years and Alma still doesn't know where you go at night. Baltasar, just how long have you been an Inquisitor?'

============

"...Are you eating all those on your own." Baltasar says, returning to their house in he Spanich wedge. His axe and blunderbuss are put to the side with two heavy thuds, and he unwraps his stole in preparation to work in the fields. He was to poke through the soil and hopefully find a good location for a rice field. He'd meant to do it earlier, but he'd collapsed into

'You cannot have any, I'm afraid.'

"What are you even doing. Have you been inside all day?"

'I am stress eatng.'

Lucas still hasn't bitten the bullet quite yet. It seemed quite clear that he had been avoiding Milo, as he hadn't gone to the library in some time, and any and all pastries he had been making had been consumed by either himself, or had been insistently fed to Bartholomew.

'...I ought to leave some for tomorrow. The desert is a truly exhausting place to be.'

"...Don't suppose you'd be bringing any along to share."

Lucas beams at him, his expression ever cloying and proud. He places his chin on his clasped hands.

'Goodness gracious, no.'

'What's this? Still having trouble in paradise?'

The day after Easter, Lucas had gone hunting. Sobered and penitent, after his blurry, regrettable attempt at spending time with Milo in his bedroom and earning Bartholomew's forgiveness shortly after, he was seemingly back to rights. He took a quick trip into the Thirstlands, spending the night in the sands in search for what he had lost. No dice. As much as he is loathe to admit it, it truly helped to have a party on these ventures.

Even if the party often included those that dabbled in heretical arts.

Baltasar had known him far too long to pass his comments off as the usual needling and teasing. Regardless of how often they had attempted to kill other in secret, they somehow managed to all live in the same house. It was impossible to miss the blood that had begun to dry on Lucas' weapons, sticky and pungent.

"...You're in a foul mood." Baltasar observes, looking at Cyrus' pocketwatch. Running the pads of his fingers over the nicks and scratches, looking over the engraving, turning it over in his palm.

'Oh? And you know so much about me, do you?' Lucas fires back, voice raised. He waves his wheel lock rifle haphazardly, before taking a deep sigh. There's a thudding sound coming from the house-- now no longer uncommon.

Rakuyo tumbles out of his room, panting, still half-trapped in the clutches of the Dream. They had all experienced it once again, and each of them dealt with it in the only ways they knew how. Agression and violence.

'It seems our puppy needs a walk. I hope you can take care of that. I shall be at the kitchens after cleaning up.'

A new week, a new nightmare.

A crystalline figure. A massive monster.

The scent of his own blood, thick and cloying, permeating the stench of filthy fur.

He didn't mean to, he didn't mean to, and yet he did.

Baltasar wakes in his own bed instead of Cyrus' floor, and turns to look upon the dull shine of the garnet brooch by his bedside. It was shamefully tarnished, cloudier than the memories twisted by dreams.

The phantom pain of claws upon his raw skin remained, though the real pain of his most recent wounds from Lucas had already faded. As he prepares to leave for a quick fishing trip before heading to the burial site, Rakuyo paces in his room, stir-crazy from his own nightmares. The Sonatan will challenge him today, and Baltasar will have sore muscles and a new cut in his side for his trouble. Another scar on top of scars.

Meanwhile, Lucas was puttering around the kitchens, heavily considering the tin of cocoa and a recipe for ring-shaped pastries.

It was another week, and there was much to do.

That's what he wrote and that's what they were going to do. Their targets were what could be dozens of bandit camps scattered across the desert, and hopefully, their bounty would bear fruit.

Trinkets and an heirloom, in addition to whatever else they can pry from what Baltasar expects to be cold, dead hands.

Rakuyo had not volunteered-- though Baltasar did not yet know that had only been because the man couldn't read or write. With himself and Lucas departing without him, it had all the energy of the youngest child being left at home to tend to his own devices. Hopefully they wouldn't be returning to another kitchen fire.

ℙ𝕒𝕤𝕥

𝟏𝟔𝟒𝟓- Born as a foundling orphan in Waele, a young Baltasar was not eager to lean on the kindness and charity of the orphanage. As early as he could, he began working at the docks as a fisherman, befriending sailors so he may travel to different lands. With the guidance of the captain of the ship on which Baltasar would embark on his first voyage, he learns the arts of Banner Role magic. In the captain's words, "It would not only be for your own protection, but so that regardless of where you go, you always have a piece of Waele to take with you".

𝟏𝟔𝟓𝟗- His first long voyage would take him to Span, where he is met by an aging couple who were willing to adopt Baltasar as their own. They were pleased that he was more than willing to help them tend their farm, and when they insisted that they were in need of him as both a helper and as a child they wanted to raise but couldn't bear themselves, Baltasar agreed to stay, if only for a while.

𝟏𝟔𝟕𝟎- It was not "for only a while". He would eventually grow up, watching them live and being at their side when they pass of old age, inheriting their modest home and small farmland.

𝟏𝟔𝟕𝟑- Eventually, he becomes a man of the cloth. Due to his rather lonely and intimidating stature, there aren't many attendees at his masses. He meets Rodolfo, a Knight of Tantiago, who somehow befriends Baltasar by frequenting his church on a whim. They occasionally go fishing together.

𝟏𝟔𝟖𝟓- Baltasar meets a straggler-- a woman named Alma, who he shelters in his church. Eventually, they fall in love and would go on to conceive two girls, their relationship kept hidden with the assistance of Rodolfo the knight. But of course, people talk.

𝟏𝟔𝟖𝟕- Baltasar and Alma's first daughter is born. They name her Ana.

𝟏𝟔𝟖𝟖- Lucas Borja introduces himself to Baltasar. Upon learning of his earlier life, he commends him for abandoning his "barbaric" magic and becoming a priest, looking up to Baltasar for his sheer strength and dedication, believing him to be a force of righteousness.

𝟏𝟔𝟗𝟎- Baltasar and Alma's second daughter is born. They name her Elena. The true nature of his work continues to elude his family, but the secret weighs heavy. Only Rodolfo has suspicions of his true profession, about where he leaves at night, and returns smelling of blood. Rodolfo confides in Alma, who denies it for her own sanity.

𝟏𝟔𝟗𝟐- Rodolfo confirms with suspicions with Baltasar, after the latter's persistence.

𝟏𝟔𝟗𝟑- Rodolfo discovers ████ Alma ████ ████████ Puerta practitioner ████████ ████ ████ teaching ████ ████ ████ daughters, ████████ helps ████ ████ ████ ███████

𝟏𝟔𝟗𝟗- Things get heated. Ana attempts to follow Baltasar when he leaves late at night. Alma is caught practicing Puerta, opening a portal to find Ana before she comes to harm. The following details are shrouded in rumor. Alma is seen fleeing into her home. Rodolfo attempts to stop Baltasar from meeting with Alma, and witnesses state that Baltasar is seen swinging a greataxe at Rodolfo and Alma as Lucas arrives. Later, the bloodied bodies of Alma and Rodolfo are recovered on the scene, as well as the slaughtered bodies of Ana and Elena found in the cellar.

Baltasar and Lucas are brought in for interrogation, and are both charged with harboring a Puerta practitioner as well as heresy. The village where Baltasar's church still stand is abuzz with rumors of jilted lovers, broken vows, heretical acts, and of murder both hot and cold-blooded.

ℙ𝕣𝕖𝕤𝕖𝕟𝕥

𝟏𝟔𝟗𝟗-𝟏𝟕𝟎𝟎- Baltasar flees Span, shadowed by Lucas. Those that have witnessed them may remark that the two seem violently at odds. Almost every moment that Lucas catches up, the sounds of clashing steel, the howling of a beast, and the splintering of wood fill the air, almost always followed by the spilling of blood.

This continues on until Baltasar reaches Virulen, and is granted protection by the town's laws. Shortly after, Lucas joins the town as well, claiming to be a friend of Baltasar's, which he doesn't bother to deny. In the town, they maintain what appears to be a truce-- though Baltasar shrugs off Lucas' multiple attempts at kindness.

𝐀 𝐛𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐟 𝐡𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐲:
Born as an orphan in Waele, the man that would be known as Baltasar Nilsen earned his keep by working as a fisherman until he was thirteen. Looking for a little more in life, he boards a ship and was met at the Spanich port by a childless, elderly couple. They take him in and he settles in Span, inheriting their farm after they pass, and eventually taking on the cloth to become a priest.

He lives a relatively quiet life, and meets a woman named Alma, secretly having two daughters despite his vows. Rodolfo, a Knight of Tantiago and Baltasar's trusted friend, help keep their relationship a secret. But of course, people talk, don't they? Questions about the true nature of their relationship is frequently brought up in gossip. Unbeknownst to Baltasar, Alma was a practitioner of Puerta, and is she is eventually sought out as a target for the Inquisition.

The following events remain unclear. Lucas Borja, another priest that had become closely acquainted with Baltasar, rushes to Baltasar's home. When the authorities and Inquisitors arrive on-site, they recover the bodies of Rodolfo, Alma, and Baltasar's daughters Ana and Elena.

Afterwards, Baltasar Nilsen is reported to have fled Span, under charges of heresy and harboring a Puerta practitioner. Lucas Borja follows him shortly after, charged as Baltasar's accomplice. Those that have witnessed them may remark that the two seem violently at odds. Almost every moment that Lucas catches up, the sounds of clashing steel and splintering wood fill the air, almost always followed by the spilling of blood. However, their relationship in Virulen seems far more amiable.
