I'm already responsible for many lives.

<Snipped quote by Zealz>

It's a key from miss Sideslash.

@Vacare

SideSlash?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Meta>

*I look to the two of you*

What are you thinking? I mean we can always take them to that place...

*Shows the key*

... And show them a new world to begin again, or be heroes and continue in this world and find them a new place.

@Vacare

What is that?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Zealz>

<Snipped quote by Meta>

Michael: I see...

Eve: What do we do now then? We have no where else to go.

Start again I guess?

@Vacare

Who is going to take her place a ruler?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Meta>

<Snipped quote by Zealz>

*The people in the room then turn their attention to us*

Eve: How... How long has it been since Laila casted that spell?

Michael: And who are all of you?

@Vacare

*ignores them as I stare at the body and shortly after I kneel next to her*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Meta>

<Snipped quote by Zealz>

*The voice begins to grow fainter with each word*

Laila: "Let them have a new beginning. Somewhere peaceful. Tell Michael... Tell Eve... That I forgive both of them and that I wish them the happiest of days."

*The people from within the sphere begin to move. Eve's wounds begin to close up due to the healing spell*

I think... That should do it.

@Vacare

<Snipped quote by Meta>

It's a warm feeling in the heart! Though I don't believe I'll ever experience romance of my own. I'm quite content at least watching other's love bloom.

*Michael looks towards Laila her body finally coming to a gentle rest on the ground. He takes Eve's hand and walks towards the Laila's body and they kneel by her and pray.*

@Vacare

*Walks over to the body, staring at it*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Meta>

<Snipped quote by Zealz>

*I place the items before me*

Yes... I think I can piece things together... Laila was in love with Michael, Michael was an adventurer. But for some reason they got separated and thought they'd never see each other again. So Michael pondered for a long time and allowed himself to love. But Laila met them again, putting Michael in a tough spot. Laila was jealous at first, but couldn't bear to see Michael in pain and so let her own love go. She allowed Michael and Eve's love to flourish over her own.

*The items begin to glow*

Laila: "... Yes. And when a neighboring country came to wage war upon us, we fought back and lost. I did what I could to save as many people I could... But I knew that even if we survived we would be trapped. You... All of you... Have freed them."

*The sphere begins to slowly dissipate and I cast a large scale healing spell filling the room with blue and green light*

@Vacare

*stares into the light and speaks to the voice*
What would you want us to do with them?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Zealz>

<Snipped quote by Meta>

I think...

*I walk closer to the sphere and place my hand onto it*

Just as I thought... The energy I've been feeling, this entire place... Is resonating from this. What we see here is her body, but her soul - all of it - has been used to save whatever she could... The ultimate sacrifice. All she wanted was for someone to remember her and know her story.

*I look to you both*

Give me the items... I'll prepare a healing spell and let these people out.

@Vacare

There are people in that ball?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Meta>

If that's the case... Why would the both of them lead us here?

*The two wisps reappear and enter into the sphere, behind Laila two bodies illuminate. Eve was dying, and Michael was trying to stop the bleeding*

Ah... I see now... She had to choose whether to save Eve or fight and save the people. She wasn't blinded by her jealousy at least... That speaks volumes of her character.

@Vacare

What does that mean for us?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Meta>

I'll move the debris out of the way

*I then point my hand towards the rubble and debris and clear the biggest pieces away first to clear a path*

@Vacare

<Snipped quote by Vacare>

I’ll go investigate!
*Jumps headfirst into the shadows*

@Meta

Have you felt anything else around here, mage?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Zealz>

Mmmmm~
*Holds my hand to my chin*
I've done a quest or two.

@Meta

*We reach the entrance to the basement*

Here we are...

*I hold out a hand and cast an illumination spell*

Let's proceed cautiously. There were shadows down here.

@Vacare

*to Clover*
I see.

*turns to follow Veil*
I am ready.
