Jaden was the first to break the sudden silence.
J: "so... Is that it? Is it over? No more Mr evil ass?"
S: "I'm not sure. Only time will tell"
Z: "just be glad that we're not fighting anymore"

L," He'll die before he even reaches the cockpit. The damage to too much, even for him.."
-
Edited by Moot: 12/25/2015 7:59:21 PMS: "somehow I doubt that he'll die that easily"
-
L," Doesn't matter to me anymore... I've done my part. Now.... I don't know what to do..." Meanwhile Aries stepped through the portal, and sure enough, on a rock ledge, was a ship. As soon as he took one step though, he realised something was wrong. He fell to his knees, and could feel blood coming up. He yanked off his helmet and coughed into his arm. Sure enough, the damage had been too much. He laughed at the irony.
-
J: "hey, where's James and Lakir?"
-
L," Probably back at the camp with everyone else."
-
Z: "we should probably get back there" J: "yeah, let's go" Jaden and Zaaria summoned their sparrows and prepared to leave. Switch however, was more reluctant. He seemed distant from the others, looking off into the distance with a sincere look in his eyes. S: "I feel bad for just letting him go like that..." J: "Switch, that guy had it coming to him. Stop worrying about him, it's over" S: "were it soo easy..."
-
Lake summoned his sparrow as well. Aries dragged himself to a wall, and sat up. His pulse was getting weaker by the second. He was very calm about it.
-
S: "Lake. Where is the location of that ship you sent Aries off to?"
-
L," Just north of the valley."
-
S: "Right, I'm going there. You guys head back to the camp, I'll meet you later" J: "Switch, what're you--?!" S: "--Just go" Switch got on his sparrow and sped out of the crater towards the location that Lake had given him.
-
Aries grabbed a flask from underneath his armour. A," Cheers."
-
Soon enough, Switch arrived at the location just beyond the valley where Lake's ship had landed. He got off his sparrow as it dematerialised behind him into blue shards of light. Looking around, he soon found Aries bleeding out and sitting down on the ground.
-
Aries had downed the last of his drink. Not hat it helped him. He was just looking at the scenery.
-
Switch walked over and sat down besides Aries, as he looked out over the distant mountain ranges. S: "Trying to go out on a high note, are we?"
-
" Does this look like a high note to you?" He coughed again, blood oozing out the corner of his mouth.

Edited by Moot: 12/25/2015 11:24:41 PMS: "I'd certainly think so. If you think about it, there could have been far worse ways to go for you, considering the enemies you made"
-
" Going out to one of my enemies.... Is going out on a high note..... This is pathetic."
-
Edited by Moot: 12/26/2015 12:07:08 AMS: "heh. I'll say... He continued to look out at the natural landscape, as the sun began to set, flooding the mountains in orange light. S: "it's called sympathy. Take it while you still can..."
-
A," I have no need for it."
-
S: "you never did. Truthfully, you don't need anything anymore"
-
" Do yourself a favour..... The Light, and the Darkness. It can all go to hell. Everyone is being used these days."
-
S: "what do you mean? You're saying that we're all pawns in some messed up game?"
-
" Like I said before. All of this..... Is just one giant chess match. The Fallen used to serve the Traveller.... Did you know that?"
-
Edited by Moot: 12/26/2015 1:06:09 AM"Yes, I do. Turns out you can learn [i]a lot[/i] about the Eliksni from Variks if you get him drunk enough" Switch chucked to himself a bit. "I'm aware of how the traveller once came to the Eliksni in a time of need, and uplifted them into a golden age of their own. The traveller, or the great machine as they called it, birthed the servitors. They sustained and empowered the Eliksni by generating their life-giving ether; vital to their survival" "And then came the whirlwind. Your master, the darkness, descended upon their kind and forced the traveller into abandoning them, leaving their whole civilisation to crumble and fall into a dark age of their own. And thus, the Eliksni became known as the Fallen. Even today, they battle against us in a vein attempt to retake the traveller for themselves" "And I know what you're about to point out next: how the traveller did the exact same to us. It came to uplift us, only to try and escape the darkness the moment it entered our system. The only reason the traveller remains in this system, is Rasputin. That's all. All it took was for one warmind to cripple the traveller to the point of immobilisation" "Without Rasputin's intervention, neither you or I would exist"
-
" Is that such a good thing? If I didn't exist, a quarter of the city would still be here. Dark Guardians wouldn't exist. The Traveller doesn't fight its own battles. It forces others to do it. That's why there are Guardians."
