[center][h2][color=black][b]Mourningstar[/b][/color][/h2] [@King Cosmos][@Zeroth][/center] Mourningstar vaguely heard the enraged shout of the Slime from the other group, but she promptly ignored it. She didn't feel like listening to the self important fuck go on a rant about her cowardice or something, she was well aware of what a piece of shit she was already. She noted how the light of the cave was growing dimmer and turned her attention back to her new task. Night would soon fall, bringing with it the wrath of the Goblins. If she was lucky she would find the Mother Wisp and band together with it to fight off the Goblins, there likely wouldn't be many after her former companions dealt with them. Most likely the remnants of the Goblins would flee into the cave to try and start over, either being slaughtered by the other species or building themselves back up from the ashes of their defeat. It mattered not, the cave ecosystem would adapt. As she lost herself in thoughts of science and ecology she gently bumped into a pixie who cut off her path, a small grunt echoing through the cave as Mourningstar glared at Oberon. [color=black][b]"I'm leaving. It's what you all wanted right?"[/b][/color] She looked back at the group to see Digbie of all people trying to be leader, failing at it miserably too. [color=black][b]"None of you wanted me around. Digbie is already trying to take my spot without even attempting to see what I was doing. It's pretty clear that my place isn't here."[/b][/color] Her eyes narrowed as she stared at Oberon, her annoyance clear. [color=black][b]"I see the way you guys look at me. How you all ignore me and try your best to not talk to me. Ardur ran the first chance he got, Rain disappeared right after I saved her life. None of you want to be around me. Even you, you'd rather copy Mana Shot from watching me rather than talking to me. I saved your life and you refuse to talk to me until I start walking away with valuable loot."[/b][/color] A brief silence washed over the duo as Mourningstar formulated her thoughts, before a light sigh brushed forth from her lips. Her gaze softened, eyes moving downwards as she lost her nerve. [color=cyan]"I don't blame you. I'm useless to be quite honest. Useless in my past life and useless now, it was dumb to think I could try and be around people just because I'm in a new body."[/color] She moved past Oberon, her voice natural and light compared to the usual deep sultry tone she used. [color=cyan]"I'm going to go die probably. I don't know, I'm just sick of being a burden on everyone I meet. Either I'll come back in a better form like little slime warlord over there, or I won't come back at all. It's a win win for you either way."[/color] She stopped as she hefted her satchel into a more secure spot on her shoulder(?), glancing at it with sad eyes. [color=cyan]"I figured I would take some crystals for myself since I found them, but if you guys really want them you can have them. Probably wouldn't make much sense to have a dead man walking away with things she'll never use."[/color] Mourningstar tried to lighten the mood with some self deprecating humor, but she only felt worse. Why did he have to make it hard, why couldn't he have just let her leave like he wanted her to. They had plenty more Mana Crystals, did it really matter that she took just a few for herself? It didn't matter really, it was highly likely she would die the moment she ventured out by herself anyways. [color=cyan]"Later."[/color] Mourningstar set the bag down on the ground gently and continued her course, ready to leave this conversation behind as soon as she could.
