Ascian's Ideal World: First Run

[idolpro]

You are in a dark place. All you can here is ticking for a long, long while.

Then a bright light, a pure white crystal, taller than the dorms itself, appears in front of you. It's voice echoes in your mind.

Hear.... Feel... Think...
A Light there once was that shone throughout this realm... yet it has since grown dim
And as it has faltered so has the Darkness risen up in its stead, presaging an end to life.
For the sake of us all, I beseech thee deliver us from this fate.
If thou would pierce the shadows... make thee a blade of light.
Hold onto it, child.
Return His Dark servants to your realm.
But beware, ever is He trying to grow his power. Do not get caught.


And the light vanishes you find yourself with a crystal in your hand.



Though you are again left in in Darkness before you find yourself in a vast city standing in front of a large teleportation device.

Objectives (if your character can translate Hydaelyn vagueness):
1) Convince both Ascians to leave
2) Don't get tempered :) (or killed if you don't like mind control)

Additionally you may choose EITHER canon or OR imeeji powers to be active. You can wait to decide until you use a power, but once you use a power that powerset is locked in as your choice.

Also if people are in the same area as you feel free to mingle. It is in fact encouraged. Also your phones work only to text and take pictures (basically for the purpose of communicating in case you are in different spots).

All you have to do is look at the sky to see the stars, Emet-Selch. [They smile at him.] You could even settle on Mars. I don't think the Utopians would mind.

[firstworldproblem]

So kind of you to offer. And truthfully, were circumstances different I would take it.

But 'tis not my call to make nor do we have the time to create a teleportation sigil of such magnitude.

[deicider]

What would buy you more time?

[firstworldproblem]

I have studied extensively from Five. We could make time. But there is no guarantee this won't simply happen somewhere else.

[deicider]

There is no guarantee this won't happen again here, since we're already on round 2, and I doubt you half-assed it the last time. You're way overdue for a plan B.


Are you the keeper of souls, Emet-Selch, or the keeper of this rock?

[firstworldproblem]

If only it were that simple. This 'rock' has a lifestream full of aether and all that makes life. It is not so easy to abandon.

[Presumably Absinthe happens about now. Cardinal hand tenses on Emet-Selch's wrist, in case he tries to get up though Cardinal themself looks ready to spring up.]

... I think that's your plan A going wrong now.

I know you would spare them if there was a way, Emet-Selch. There is a way.

[firstworldproblem]

Apparently so.

[Timelines.]

There is not. Not without Him.

[He reaches out and pets their hair before teleporting to the fight.]

[Cardinal tosses a sword into the abyss, and dives after it.]
