I looked up to where the Queen's banners were being replaced with those of House Judgement, disgust filling me, before I sighed and took a breath, trying for a better mood. With the outbreath, I said, "An understatement." Then I scowled, and looked the Guardian in the eye. "I fear for the Reef under the leadership of a fool." I turned for the hangar, then. "If you need me, I'll be with the ship," I said, before walking off to leave her with the former Judgement scribe.

I spent majority of my time in the confinement of my courtyard, investing well over three hours meditating. I had been warry at first, due to my experience the day prior but I gave in. With Invictus' words to soothe my worries, I played with my light, letting it flow more freely and I grew a better understanding of myself. An epiphany of sorts which made me feel more closure and peace, my inner turmoil dissipating into dust. I was interrupted by the tower chatter which was uncharacteristically loud. I extended my light and immediately grew excited as I sensed a familiar presence. Swiftly I stood and bolted out of the courtyard and crossed the tower, dodging guardians this way and that. I reached my quarry; A titan who stood tall on front of the medallion of the iron lords. He looked at me with his head cocked quizically before letting out a low chuckle. "Artemis...I almost hadn't recognized you outside your armor" He teased, reaching out and pulling me into an embrace. Guardians who had gathered to receive their buffs gave me an array of looks, but I only ignored them. "Well there's a lot to be caught up on Forge."I said, returning the gesture before pulling back. He honestly hadn't changed a bit since I last saw him, but perhaps that was for the better. "Ah, Cayde has caught me up to date with everything. Although I'm surprised to hear about your defection, I can understand the turn of events and you have my condolences Red."He said. I could hear the sympathy and pity in his voice, but I wanted none of it, so I waved it off with a polite smile. "It matters not, the vanguard will always be my home. Although I cannot stand this house arrest"I returned with a sigh. The titan let out a laugh before taking my hand and placing a small medal in my palm before closing it. "You cannot tame a warriors passion to fight, especially yours. Gear up and I'll deal with Cayde later."He said. I gave him a swift kiss on the side of his helmet before bolting towards my quarters. ♤~♤~♤~♤ Time skip ♤~♤~♤~♤ The familiar weight of armor had made me feel more at ease as I walked through the tower. I decided to see what my friend had been up to and had a feeling I'd know where he'd might be.

As my fingers flew up and down the two stems - I had four arms, so why not? - of my custom-synthesized guitar, I felt strangely at ease. As though this was simply... right, like how it was right that I was now one of Light instead of Darkness. It was a good thing I had soundproofed my room, though, because I had a feeling that not everyone in the tower would enjoy the music of an amateur. However, that was soon fading, as with every passing minute, I felt myself improve. I had moved on from the songs of others, and every once-in-a-while, I would stop for a minute, look over the notes I had taken last night, make a small adjustment according to whatever I found, and go back to playing. Now, though, as I stopped, I thought a bit longer than usual, an idea forming in my head. "I wonder..." I spoke, searching my chin, before shrugging. "Well, might as well give it a try." I readied, and with one great strum, poured a bit of my Light into the instrument. From the speakers I had set up came the usual sound of the guitar, as well as a sound like thunder - Before each and every one of them exploded in a flash of sparks. When I uncovered my face, I looked around at the destruction, then looked a my hands and my instrument. "Great," chirped Gamma with a sigh. "Give me a minute, I'll have them back together quick." At that, I held up a hand. "Not yet," I said, another idea forming in my head. "Look through the notes for me. Was there any mention of using electricity to produce sound?" After a moment, he replied in the affirmative. "Yes. But why-" he looked at me, and apparently saw something he didn't like, because he sighed again. "Never mind. I assume you're going to do whatever it is anyway. Just try not to blow anything [i]else[/i] up." Instead of replying, I focused, drawing on my Light further. Then, instead of pouring it in all at once, I let it flow in a steady stream. Starting with the lower stem, I started to play one tune, before playing an opposite one on the other. Before I knew it lightning was coursing between the two, and from it came the music I was playing. I felt the electricity flowing from one to the other, as though the two were positively and negatively charged - which they were, in all honesty. Just not like most people though of. With a final chord, I let the stream die. And looked to my Ghost, who was simply floating there. "Who needs speakers anyway?" I said with a smirk, before playing one last riff. Which promptly blew my door out of it's frame.
