[spoiler]This is gonna be my goodbye post probably. I got stuff in real life to take care of. [/spoiler]
[b]The Dight castle is empty, and the main gates open.
Through the path, down to the castle the trees are older looking and seem to be dying.
There's a single robotic figure standing around the now empty courtyard of the Dight. [/b]
"They're gone...."
[spoiler]Open![/spoiler]
English
-
This is a [i]nightmare[/i]! First Tubbs dies, then the Deity loses his powers, then Zane retires, now this!?
-
"I'm sure they'll return... They wouldn't leave without assisting Cyan" [b]He seems to know more then he should, considering you've never seen him before and he's already referencing Cyan [/b]
-
*Mortar raises a brow to the statement* What do you know about my sister?
-
"Those guards will be a nightmare without the Dight don't you think?" [b]He kneels down, a dark save spreading across a portion of the ground [/b] "Tough guys really."
-
Umm... You're kinda creepin me out robo
-
"Oh it's quite alright Mortar. No need to be afraid, creeped, or anything else."
-
I'm not sure, though... How do you know all this?
-
"I am knowledgeable of course."
-
But how did you get this information?
-
"I am knowledgeable. That is all that must, shall, or will he known." [i]"Always been one to know to much, Enux."[/i] "Ah. He joins us." [b]Coming down the pathway is Royal, who seems to be ignoring you at the moment [/b] [i]"You've always been one to talk. Yet you never act. Always preach always comment." [/i] "Come now. Is that anyway to treat me after everything?" [i]"How else would I be treating you?" [/i] "LIKE A FRIEND. A SAVIOR!" [i]"Why should I? YOU'VE ONLY CAME FOR Unix. Only for Unix..." [/i] "And when she was shut down, I left!"
-
*Mortar, despite REALLY wanting to say Hi, wait, no, that's an understatement, to grab Royal and hug him really hard, while scolding him for leaving, he stays silent, since this is not the right time*
-
[i]"Exactly my point. Be gone" [/i] "But -" [i]"Nothing. Go." [/i] [b]The robot sighs, a bright flash of light sending him upwards as Royal turns to you [/b]
-
*Mortar looks at him, resisting the urge to do that thing I mentioned a reply ago* Royal...
-
"-blam!- sake just come here." [b]He walks over, embracing Mortar and patting his back [/b] "Good seeing you again my friend."
-
*Mortar embraces Royal as well. For a thin guy he sure has a strong hug* It's great to see you again; I've missed you Royal.
-
"I've missed you as well!" [b]He pulls away, smiling warmly. But you see something wrong with him. His hair is messy, and much longer, down to his shoulders and all over the place He has dark circles under his eyes and his eyes seem to have red veins, as if he's been up all night [/b]
-
Well You've certainly... Changed. *Mortar doesn't know what to say really, he's never seen Royal look like this before* Did you find her?
-
"After much time." [b]His eyes immediately become watery, even thinking about her [/b] "I found her. And... And well." [b]Tears begin down his face [/b]
-
*He wraps an arm around his shoulders, thinking he shouldn't have said that* It's okay Royal. It's gonna be okay.
-
"I dunno man." [b]He cleans the tears away, and sighs heavily [/b]
-
It's gonna be okay Royal. I can tell you really loved her. And it's okay to feel this way, Roy. Just let it all out. *Mortar embraces Royal once again, making sure he feels better*
-
[b]He begins sobbing. Heavily. His whole body shakes with every breath be takes. But then he suddenly stops. He pulls away... And his eyes are empty. You've seen this before. Hollows. Royal's going hollow [/b]
-
Roy? *He lightly slaps Roy's cheek a couple times* Royal!? *His slapping becomes harder until he flat out decks him in panic*
-
[b]Royal falls backwards, landing on his back and looking upwards [/b] "What's the point? There is no point"
-
I'm NOT letting you go hollow! *Mortar tackles him, anger in his eyes, and he punches Royal across the face multiple times. He just got Royal back, and learning that he's hollow? This sends him almost into a blind rage, no one has seen him this pissed before*
