FINAL TRIAL

[The doors at the other end of the city do not open for the Titled. However, whatever is going on in there still brings forth bright lights from within, and ultimately, it is to the steps of the entrance that everyone is drawn to. It's not the most formal setting for figuring out the truth of the matter before them.

Eric's brought the snacks, at least.

The Dragonborn sits at the top of the stairs, looking down as everyone congregates.]

...Having this key...I am certain I can open the door with little difficulty. But before I do we must make certain we know and understand exactly what we will be facing. What we are facing. These people...they are doing something and we must ensure we can somehow stop it.


[The end is near. The objectives of this quest are simple:

Who is the Mastermind? What is going on in this world? And...of course...why did the Mastermind want to kill 15 strangers?

Good luck, Titled.]

They'd better hope they're dead by the time I get my powers back. Because if not...they'll learn the true meaning of 'no mercy.'

[lightnen]

I have no problems letting you do that, long as I can get a hit in on them somewhere.

[ See? Killua's pretty reasonable as far as that's concerned and willing to let Junior go wild as long as he can get a couple hits/injuries in on their stupid captors. ]

[carries_war]

Go right ahead. But the final blow is mine. We'll see how they like being dragon chow...

[lightnen]

I look forwards to seeing that for myself. Can't promise everyone else will be willing to let you have the final blow but as far as i'm concerned, you can have it.

[ There they both go talking about murdering someone in the most casual way. ]

[carries_war]

If I get my powers back, they'll have a hell of a time taking it from me. I'll be able to burn those bastards alive with just a flick of my wrist.

[lightnen]

[ Now that's kind of impressive sounding all on it's own. He remembers Rubedo in that first day when he'd hit the wall and got burned, and the other had asked him how he did it. Then proceeded to hit it and mentioned his 'powers' generally around there so it wasn't too surprising to hear it now. ]

Sounds like a plan to me. Toast anyone who dares get in your way.

[carries_war]

I've got worse in mind for them, too. I hope they'll try to comfort themselves with the idea of an afterlife, so they'll suffer when I rip that away.

[lightnen]

They deserve all that and more so I'm not going to argue against that.

[ Questions weren't needed here when he knew this all tied into Junior not being human, along with that Red Dragon ability. ]

[carries_war]

Well, we've got until we catch up to them to figure out what else they deserve. I'm usually not a fan of going out of one's way to be cruel, but I think this situation calls for an exception.
