[Time Eater] I know why you're here. I can sense it in you.
Who: Cyrus and whoever else
What: Time Eater
Where: Reliving the time from the creation of the Red Chain to his defeat on Mt Coronet
When: Two and a half years ago
When Cyrus opened his eyes, the dark void was gone. Thankfully, since the last time he'd been sucked into a void had been when that shadowy pokémon had abducted him.
But now he was faced with a place that seemed to be the antithesis of that void. An empty white chasm, spreading out everywhere, with no boarders and nothing dividing the land and sky.
He took a step, and another, to ensure that the ground was relatively level, but even so, he walked with a shuffling pace so as not to encounter any sudden pits.
There were things in view, as he drew closer. Golden doors, each with a symbol upon them, and a void of its own.
Passing a door that bore the likeness of a distant region, he was greeted by a floating musical note that immediately fled. Perhaps it was sentient; he had certainly seen stranger things. "Crobat, retrieve."
The bat burst forth and soared at the note, but rather than be caught, the note burst into a message.
Cyrus had obtained "Song--Ride On Lapras", a title he remembered had been popular in the years before his birth. He wasn't entirely sure *how* he obtained this piece, but the message vanished after a moment.
The doors continued, and the two went along the row in silence until one symbol stood out.
A door emblazoned with the unmistakable Red Chain.

Re: Fated (Spear Pillar)
Cyrus had gotten this far. The god was ahead of him, and his pokemon were at his side, ready to prevent anything from stopping their master's plan.
It was a rush, as it had been the first time, and the second. But this felt off, though it was the same. It didn't seem real, as if he was simply going through the motions in a memory or a reinactment.
No, he concluded, it had to be real, even if he had to force it into reality!
"This world cannot be molded into the ultimate world I seek! It's far easier to create an entirely new world than to change this one! A new world in which I am the ruler of all things! I shall become a deity!"
His words hadn't changed either. This was his true self, casting away everything that had happened in the past two and half years.
So why did it feel so off?
Re: Fated (Spear Pillar)
However, those words. This man was more of a crazy douchebag with a superiority complex than Navarre had first reasoned. "A god? Really?" he scoffed, folding his arms again. This guy was a joke. Yes, he could make the ground shake, but that was an old trick. He'd seen mages do better.
Re: Fated (Spear Pillar)
The deity advanced towards him with lumbering steps that shook the ground before stopping as if its reason for doing so had blinked out of its very mind. Which, of course, was exactly what had happened. The chain, forged from the very bodies of the lake spirits, was beginning to wear at its spirit.
That, of course, was when everything had fallen apart before. The trainer had arrived to do battle with his remaining commanders, but that had not disrupted his plan. They would have been quickly rendered powerless if those same lake spirits had not shown up. And this was where Cyrus glanced away for a moment, examining the air for those creatures that had damned all creation.
Re: Fated (Spear Pillar)
He wasn't entirely sure one sword would be enough for this. Then again, he wasn't sure what this was exactly. He was certain however that Cyrus was somehow in the middle of this. Dream or not, it would be very enjoyable to tear him limb from limb (on Navarre had been itching for a real fight lately).
But the problem was that god-like thing. Navarre never was fond of anything that looked like a dragon. He flanked the thing as much as the summit would let him, trying to size up the thing better. And besides, the giant creature seemed to be paying attention to Cyrus instead. Letting him get eaten wasn't out of the question, but it sure would take the fun out of it.
Re: Fated (Spear Pillar)
That was all Cyrus was willing to wait. If they weren't going to show up, alls the better. If they were late, that was their own undoing.
He approached the deity, arms outstretched to recieve its divinity. "Now, give me the power I seek! The power to create a new world on this spot!"
The being's eyes glowed, a mirror of the swirling chain that seemed to have gotten far longer than its mass would allow. The two officers clasped hands, both in fear and excitement. Their lord was to triumph! He would put the world to rights and build all anew! Their devotion was coming to fruition at long last.
Off to the side, and the other side, and behind the deity, three lights seemed to form from nothing, and three calls resonated through the air.
The Lake Spirits had come.
Re: Fated (Spear Pillar)
"Alright, this stops here---" Navarre declared but was cut off by the Lake Spirits' sounds. Annoying little creatures. What the hell were they? How could such tiny things make such a huge racket.
[ I apologize for the lateness. I couldn't think of what to write. D: ]
Re: Fated (Spear Pillar)
Any human encroachment was the least of his concerns. The three spirits approached, quickly facing the retaliation of his pokémon. Before he had been dumbstruck, but now he was waiting for them.
The deity would not remain bound for long, and it had to be drained of its power immediately. But during that time, there was nothing he could do to aid the process along. He could only turn to face his interlopers. "Do you intend to shatter the one hope in all creation? The source of this power...you know it to be the sole salvation yet you rebel against it. How fitting that you will be destroyed by it. As, after all, it was you who brought this world to this point. It was you who forced my hand."
Re: Fated (Spear Pillar)
Navarre didn't even know what this source of power was, so how can he rebel against it?
"You're so full of crap, Cyrus," Navarre said. "You spout all this stuff about stopping war and blah blah blah, and here you are, trying to destroy the world to remake it. Full. Of. Crap."
Re: Fated (Spear Pillar)
Re: Fated (Spear Pillar)
Purest form of justice? No, Navarre had seen that. It was called Marth and the Sword of Light.
"Well I can interfere by lobbing off that crazy head of yours." Always an option.
Re: Fated (Spear Pillar)
Even with a human threat, Cyrus disregarded Navarre for the divine beings that swirled around, trying to gain purchase on the glowing chain and being denied access at every turn.
Re: Fated (Spear Pillar)
Navarre swung at the large weasel with his long blade, and if that didn't connect, there was always the follow-up with the short close-ranged blade. He wasn't about to let that thing bite him.
