Experience Tumblr Like Never Before
I guess I’ll make a little synopsis of Sellerstale so far, so that people who can’t read French will get a better idea of this little AU of mine! Frisk fell in Mt. Ebott, delibarately. The humans on the surface are a warring species, so much that this kid who believes in the old legends, thinks that monsters can’t be worse. And so they go in the mountain. The first monster they encounter is… Temmie! The creature is curious about the humanz, but hurts them unintentionnally… until a bunny-lady comes to their help. She lets them explore the Ruins so they can get used to the place. On their way Frisk meets… a very sassy and moody ghost named Mettaton! Frisk flirts their way until Mettaton is in a good mood.
After many puzzles and some exploration, Frisk finally gets to the bunny-lady’s house, and she proposes to house them until they get used to the place. She’s called the Keeper of the Ruins, and she’s being very friendly, not too motherly with Frisk.
But the “tale” must continue, even if Frisk wants to stay with her in the Ruins. So the Keeper tells them that a SOUL is something precious, and that they probably will need to FIGHT to keep it. She proposes a duel to see if they’re up to it. Frisk agrees… and ends up killed, as the Keeper has some really strong ice magic!
And so the fight drags on, as Frisk gets RESETed over and over again. They make slow progress and try to hit back just once… but the bunny-lady dies instantly and turns to dust. Horrified, Frisk RESETs and tries to simply resist this fight, dozens of times, with their SOUL turning slowly to ice… until the Keeper finally uses all of her powerful magic, and she never knew how many times she accidentally killed the human child.
So she opens the gate of the Ruins, with this parting message: “Don’t forget that your SOUL has no price.” She also gives them her warm shawl, as it’s cold outside. Frisk encounters Temmie again, who tells them that she’s proud of them for not taking the easy way of killing the bunny-lady, even if it took them so many tries at this battle…
And so, Frisk gets in the snowy forest… https://www.fanfiction.net/s/12224521/6/Sellerstale
