*Sketch sits outside the Dojo walls, near the gate. He just sits crosslegged, looking at the ground in front of him. His eyes are purple and he looks very upset for some reason. There is a collar made out of swirling back fog around his neck. When he touches it, it shrinks a little. He just sighs and continues sitting there.*
[spoiler]Open to everyone, including people who aren't members of the Dojo. If you aren't a member then I'll actually tell you how he looks when I reply to you. This is also the prologue of a plot which I'll do through a number of posts.[/spoiler]

*Mortar sits next to Sketch* Hey. That thing's still there? Thought it would have disappeared by now
-
"No... It only goes away if William dies..."
-
I'm sorry Sketch *Mortar sits next to you, placing a hand on your shoulder* Do you have any idea where... Where he could be?
-
"No... I-I don't..."
-
I'm sorry Sketch. Id there any way around it?
-
"Well, when Vorim touches the collar it temporary [i]disables[/i] it... But that's it..."
-
Well that's good... Strange, how can Vorim do that?

-
That's... Good. That's great, we can use that... Anything else bothering you? I don't think that's the only thing

Edited by Skatch142: 8/25/2016 8:18:29 PM"Well, you already know that I have nightmares, but since William put the collar on me they have gotten much, much worse..."
-
Worse? What do you mean, Sketch? What's bothering you?
-
"I dream that I'm in a cage or shackles... And I don't even have control of myself in the dream... I just sit there, doing nothing. Like I have completely lost my free will..."
-
*Mortar sighs a little* I know how that feels, that was pretty much my soul when Garuud stole it. Wait, we're going off topic. How long has this been going on?
-
"Since I got the collar..."
-
Oh... I think I know what's going on. William is making this happen to you to make you feel hopeless and therefore bend you to his will. It's cruel, but I gotta admit very ingenious, I've used a similar tactic in the good old days to get prisoners to turn themselves in or kill themselves.
-
"No, I-I don't think that's it... I mean... Maybe..."
-
It's most likely that... Not the point. The point is I can help you cope with these nightmares.
-
"I don't know... I use lucid dreaming to help with my normal nightmares... But these just seem so real already..."
-
Oh, I can't help change the dreams, I can just help with not... Not giving in to him.
-
"I-I don't think I need help with that... Others have tried..."
-
I will
-
"Will what?"
-
I will help you Sketch
-
"O-Okay... But I won't give in to it... Again, others have tried to use mind control and that kind of thing..."
-
I don't have that type of ability. I can only really give you moral support.
