[thetoastking]

Way to make no sense.
Ah. You do not recall, then? The things they said about you... The lies they spun...

You were a beast, sitrah.

A monster in their eyes. You were unstable... They feared you. They loathed you.

Why do you think they fled?


You saved lives, yet they never liked you.

You never protected them in the first place.

But that can change. YOU can change... Open your eyes, child, and see where you are.


Is this not where your....

Friend

Destroyed countless lives?

It is aflame now. Many lives are being lost within the flames.

You can save them

and I

Can show you how

Don't you want to be a hero?
To finally do some good in this life?

Or... Will you rather...

Run

Again

From all your problems

Like you always have done?

See your hand. My guidance flows around it.

Like a river, I shall guide you
And together we can save them

will you spare those who showed you no mercy yet

are no different genetically from others?

Just let me show you
and we can save them

all of them

they will die otherwise

and perhaps


You
will
as well

he's coming
a demon in white

he will obliterate you
but together

we can stop him
and you will live
like you normally have
but maybe, you can be a hero too

[Adept]

I still say not trusting evil clouds of darkness that lie is a pretty sound policy.

[Sinjin]

"Stop being vague. Please. If you didn't notice i had to release that energy somehow. And let's not forget im currently EMOTIONALLY UNSTABLE. I NEVER ASKED FOR THIS!"

[Askia]

low voice:"why.. i.. only wanted to help them"
low voice:"why do i always bring misery..."
"help me"

Ah yes

Poor cassius


why do i always bring misery...
I know what you want cassius

You want control
over the beast inside

Do you remember earlier
The pain and destruction you caused

That does not go away cassius
It sticks
forever

I can help you
But not now
You must rest cassius

Regain your inner power

Help me...
Of course...

Take my hand...


And I...



Shall guide you.

This is who you are meant to be, sitrah. Behold.

DOS MAS CIVIL.


I shall be your lord and shepherd

and together

we will save lives

but
the demon in white

He threatens us


See the anger in his eyes

He means no goodness
for you or your friend

His power is fueled by rage
he can never be a hero

But his power still threatens your life

he would desire to destroy all you hold dear

YOU ARE SO FUCKING DEAD

LIZ SLEN NA SU LEN CHI-
Permoveo phasmatis locus.


OH FUCK-
*pop!*
It is done

He cannot harm you for now
Nor is he harmed

His location has been displaced
in time
and space

but he will return
entropy tells us that

I must leave you for now my child

my power wanes

But fear not
if you are in requirement

take my hand

and I will guide you

i shall be your shepherd

and your savior

goodbye my child...


With a sound like rushing wind, the color fades back into sitrah, leaving her with no visible harm. What was that thing? Why did it aid her in that time of need?

Maybe she should head back to the festival. But then again, it's up to her.

[Adept]

Well alright then, at least it wasn't destructive.

[Travosh]

Look at these other gods, judging the poor cloud of tentacles just because he's black kalamari. Shameful! Good job air woman. Though keeping it on the less obvious side from your compatriots may serve you well.

[Askia]

"harsh, being stuck in the middle yet knowing nothing"
(aimed to gods)"i was still in control so i didnt kill them.. but funnily enough i actually considered it for a moment"
"..."
"do you wanna go somewhere?"

[Saint Game]

We should get out of here. It won't be long until the others notice the white guy's gone.

[flyingBrick]

@Toast, is Trevor Fancypants going to be alright?@

[thetoastking]

harsh, being stuck in the middle yet knowing nothing...

... :I
Do you want to go somewhere?

[Adept]

Maybe you could go back to the rest of your group? They're probably wondering where the heck you are. ...Where are you anyway?

[Sinjin]

"I want to find daddy. If he's actually a bad person i guess i'll scold him. If not i just want to give him a hug."

[thetoastking]

Sitrah and Cassius: Rejoin the group.
They proceed to do so, after some hesitation. They look a little bit more stirred then usual, and smell ever so slightly of lotus, but seem ok nonetheless. Rick and Lucian however, seem well, lucian having a little head injury, but getting some autographs and a fancy picture with some legendary heros before being put into special front-seat reserve spots. How fortunate of them!

There's a lot to tell, or maybe not, but whether or not it's spoken is up to the individuals involved. This is a world with no set paths, after all.

RENDERING [S]: Attend the Valor Awards. CONSTRUCTION IN PROGRESS. DIALOG MODE CONFIRMED. (ETA: whenever I get to it because work's been a pain but soon because i've got a lot on my plate)

[Adept]

@Looking forward to it!@

I would probably recommend explaining what happened earlier, Sitrah, at least to some degree. Better to get it out of the way now rather than have the whole crazy spirit thing and white demon thing pop up later at an unfortunate time.

[thetoastking]

Without further wait, I present: [S]: Attend the Valor Awards.

[Xander]

"What the... What the hell just happened? Where are we?"

[Travosh]

Wow, and I thought MY ideas were bad! This seems like the type of thing I should've whispered into someones ear to do... Disappointed in myself.

[Adept]

Wellllp. That's great. Dius is back. That's gonna be fun to deal with. Anyway guys, welcome to Corpus Christi, seems like someone teleported you here just in time. This is where we gods just sorta... float around. Nothing much really happens here, to be honest.

[Saint Game]

Jeez, he came back AGAIN? how many times are we going to have to kill this guy? Anyways, welcome to corpus christi. Please mind the gap. I don't think that anything would be down there to catch you if you fell.

[Askia]

> float towards a eye

> then punch it

"what is this?"

[Fengar]

"Ow, you don't have to punch me. As others already said, this is Corpus Christi, our home."

[flyingBrick]

Ohfuckingshiteverythingblewup.

- "Please... Huff... Excuse me a second... Puff... Shit, I'm getting too old for this... Gods! It's truly an honor to be received in your heavenly abode. Though it doesn't look like I was expecting at all. A great honor nonetheless. Now I must say that I'm a little confused. Was that really Dius? Wasn't he dead? For the third time, if I'm not mistaken. And is there any particular reason for you to bring us here, besides saving us from the city imploding?"

[Adept]

As far as I'm aware, none of us brought you here. That sure looked a lot like Dius, maybe some other power brought him back?
