Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

… And?

@Unhinged

And nothing.
*Turns back toward the massive construct resting in the earth*
I just know if I stop, it’ll be the end of me.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

*Lets out a quivering breath before straightening my posture*
Fine. Fine… I don’t know where I’ll go once I leave, but I’l go.

@Unhinged

*Shrugs and shakes my head*
I still haven’t found out where I’m going either.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

*Locks eyes with you, though my gaze is distant, as if lost in thought*
…

@Unhinged

The people who you cared for before… If they cared for you as well, then I know they wouldn’t want you to do this to yourself.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

*Wipes my face before turning around*
You’re right. But my wants shouldn’t matter. They should never matter again.

@Unhinged

*Exhales*
I’m not here to tell you what to do. But you’re alive, and unless you’re telling me the actions Nemid influenced you to do were done of your own desire, you can leave with me. If there’s one thing I’ve learned in the past few months… If you stop moving forward, you’ll drown in the sorrow, and the pity. It will become you. And then, it’s harder than ever to break free.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

Someone who deserves to wallow in the wrongs committed by their own hands just might.
*Looks down at my own*

@Unhinged

*Stands in silence for a long while before speaking*
If… If Nemid hurt you at least as much as he hurt me, then I know you don’t want to stay here.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

*Stops, shakes my head and scoffs in disbelief*
I know you’re not saying that because of me. My home is gone, and there’s nowhere else I belong.

@Unhinged

Not having a place elsewhere doesn’t mean you deserve to stay here… No one does.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

Wherever I belonged, whoever I knew before. It doesn't exist anymore. I have no place.
*Attaches my gun to my hip*
I know you disabled the gun. I can't stop you. If you came to reclaim what belongs to you, just do it.
*Walks away*

@Unhinged

I…
*Clenches my fist momentarily, then relaxes*
Reclaiming what’s mine is only part of it. There are things here that don’t belong here. Weapons, technology… Reminders. And people, as I’ve just learned.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

Everything is gone. Him, his influence, my home, my- family.
*Glances to the floor and lowers my weapon slowly*

@Unhinged

*Raises an eyebrow in concern*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

*Frowns*
I don't know how to leave.

@Unhinged

... Nemid's influence on you is entirely gone.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

You tell me where else in the world there's still a structure with functioning power and facilities. Maybe I'll move.

@Unhinged

*Says nothing for a long moment, then turns around slowly to face you*
Have you... Been stuck here?
