"Personal view? Such as what?" She asked, moving towards Gerald and sitting down on a chair that she formed
English
-
"Well it's not like we have to worry about dying since time won't let us, and we're free to intervene however we want in there. Maybe have a friendly wager on which army will come out on top." Gerald pulled out a pocket watch with a golden cross etched into it. "Castlevania, 1944 A.D.'s clock. Jonathan Morris' quest to slay Dracula was around that time. I kept a number of these things to keep track of my own timeline when I need to. They called this event the 'Portrait Of Ruin' "
-
"What exactly does a pocket watch have to do with two armies Fighting?" Zora asked, looking at the watch in Gerald's hands
-
"I'd be willing to place a wager that the Vikings could come out victorious in this little, situation. The pocket watch itself is useless here but around the time it's meant to be in, it plays music when anything major is supposed to happen and if I recall, Mr. Morris did find out how to use the vampire killer whip without being a Belmont." The random factions prepared themselves for another strike on each other. Attempting to claim the insane lands as their own. [spoiler]when in reality I'm just flipping a coin and seeing which side wins the war lol[/spoiler]
-
"I think I'm going to have to go with the Samurais. Laser cannons."
-
Laser cannons appeared in front of both factions who took a moment to look at the machine. The Vikings made sense of it due to their understanding of the crossbow and we're pleased to see they did not need to reload it like it's primitive counterpart. Samurai however were used to gunpowder based weaponry and caught on just as quickly, aiming it like an ancient musket. Once both got close enough they began firing upon each other slightly clumsily as they got used to the weaponry. Others of both parties drew their swords. The raw power of Nordic steel clashed with the precision of the Katana both not used to their new opponents. "Well this should be entertaining" [spoiler]I'll let you call it. Heads or Tails?[/spoiler]
-
[spoiler]Tails [/spoiler]
-
While both seemed fairly skilled in their own right luck seemed to yield in the Vikings favor as they managed to push through the ranks. Eventually they managed to bring the fight in their favor and conquered for the time being. "Well then, that could have gone either way. Still, if you want to borrow the watch and look at that point in time you wouldn't be dissapointed. You might even get to see the lord of darkness himself" [spoiler]ended up with heads[/spoiler]
-
[spoiler]Shame.[/spoiler] "Hm. Interesting fight. I don't wish to impose though. It's your watch."
-
"Not to worry, I offered" He went to take a sip of his water then notice it was empty and restored it with more. He looked at the wound up pocket watch that to an ordinary person would be considered broken as it did not move. "Besides I've been there so many times I know it all by heart."
-
She reached her hand over the table, opening the palm of her hand
-
He handed her the watch and it didn't seem broken. Only temporally out of place. Seemingly as if was paused when it was outside of its timeline. "It should start up whenever you get near its timeline. It's like a record waiting to be placed on a record player."
-
"Huh... Thanks" She said, the watch being put away in her pocket
-
Gerald laughed a little bit at the irony. "I win the bet and still end up giving out the prize. I would make a terrible gambler wouldn't I?"
-
"Not all gambler's win you know." Zora said, laughing slightly as well
-
"Ah well. I'll have to go back to Castlevania some time again. Perhaps in the 1470s when the devil forge masters were still relevant. Very interesting abilities in that Era."
-
"I personally find the Salem witch trials extremely interesting. I've met many a Mage in that time."
-
"So there was some hiding in the midst! I thought there was but I was never quite sure since they were hiding in plain sight."
-
"Extremely talented with the hole hiding thing. Some of them actually survived the trials. There even could be a bloodline still out there."
-
"Interesting. I wonder if any stumbled across this place..."
-
"Possible. I suppose we might have to search at some point, eh?"
-
"Perhaps. I could be an interesting search" He said closing the timeline he was using for his game. He finished his glass and had it vanish in time while he thought on the subject.
-
"You know how to find me when the time comes. Thank you for the watch." Zora said with a smile, before fading away
-
Gerald got up and snapped his fingers. In a flash of light his entire set vanished back to where it had come from and he walked off. "A witch hunt. The girl has interesting taste" [spoiler]endo[/spoiler]
