We cut to a field, broken arrow pieces are in the dirt, a horrified archer is escorted out of view, Falconer, Juni and Zaylee are standing overtop ___’s body
Falconer: Hey ___, you can’t give up on me now
Juni: ____, you know, we still got so much left in life to do
Zaylee: Please, stay
___’s world fades away, as he is taken to a more alien place, one red and pink with another him standing infront of him
___: Where am I
Husk: Here with me, we share the same mind after all
___: Who are you?
Husk: Who you are now
___: Huh
Husk: I’m a cannibalistic, mindless drone and I’m also a helpful and astute Guild Member
___: What!
Husk: You couldn’t even dodge an arrow from that rookie, now I’m fighting gods on the regular
___: There’s no way…
Husk: You can still come back, Falconer misses you…
___: YOU BETTER BE TREATING HIM RIGHT
Husk: I’m not
___: You are insufferable
Husk: I’m you, stupid
___: I reject you and all that you stand for
Husk: Good luck trying to do anything then
Back in The White World, Indica’s group is surrounding Husk who has gone limp
Viridian: Did he break?
Hudson: He’s still alive
Cosma: Let’s hope he wakes up, he’s a valuable asset to combat
Indica: Let’s get Husk out of the White World before anything bad happens
Hudson: Well, how do we leave
Atlantic: By leaving?
Falconer: Solid plan, but how?
Cosma: We need a key, we can get one by killing a Golden Bell
This tale has been unlawfully obtained from Royal Road. If you discover it on Amazon, kindly report it.
Indica: They’re gold now huh
Hudson: Gold is a color I don’t like so I don’t mind killing some Gold
Viridian: Well….let’s gettem
Begin White World 4
Midway through White World 4
Hudson: So…will Husk ever get his memories back?
Viridian: I have no idea
Cosma: He could, I can see it happening
Falconer: I am carrying his body, and it feels like the load keeps getting heavier
Cosma: So he’s a big guy, stop complaining?
Resume White World 4
When you are done with it
Atlantic: These bells, these monsters, they all exist to serve Optica’s will
???: That wasn’t always true
Atlantic: Who the heck are you?
Indica: Show yourself
The mysterious figure reveals herself to be the figure of Acantha, The Former Guild Master
Indica: How are you here, you DIED
Hudson: Uhm….
Indica: Oops, sorry
Hudson: It’s cool
Echo of Acantha: I am actually her echo, left behind here in case Optica ever tried anything funny
Indica: So you and Geaventus teaming up to lift the city?
Echo of Acantha: Yeah, that was Optica manipulating myself and Geaventus, using our romantic history as fuel, she also manipulated Gladian using his feelings for you, Indica?
Cosma: That’s..scary
Viridian: And let me guess, Optica can manipulate hate too
Echo of Acantha: Correct, her tricky ways have had victims a many, including every living thing aside from us in The White World
Hudson: So know we know thy foe
Echo of Acantha: Indeed you do, now, the way out is just beyond my person
A door opens, the one that leads to Acantha’s old office
We go back to Gladian’s Group, they are kicking around the White World
Gladian: Well uh…we won…so what now?
Vendil: This was your plan
Atoll: We should kill Optica
Olivia: Huh?
Atoll: We’re already here, we should just, off her
Gladian: I like that plan
Zkn: Just kill her? Would it really be that easy?
Beline: No, we are not going directly to Optica, we need to seal this place from our world, I don’t want Olivia to be risked
Olivia: But I want to kill Optica
Beline: You do…
Olivia: I want to be free of her control
Zkn: We can make that happen
Gladian: But we’ve fought Optica plenty of times before, and she hasn’t died yet?
Atoll: But we have to keep trying
Ehl: We have to do it
Vendil: As you say, our plan is to win
Gladian: Well, things our bound to get wild in our line of work anyway, let's go right for the head
Beline: I don’t like this plan, but, if we pull it off, we might just win
Begin White World 5
When you are a 1/3rd through it
Gladian: So, how do we know where Optica will appear?
Ehl: We don’t know?
Vendil: For all our gung ho attitude, we do really suck at finding our targets
Atoll: Well this place is basically infinite
Olivia: I bet I can draw Optica out?
Beline: That’s a bit too risky, don’t you think?
Olivia: I have cause, so I will
Resume White World 5
When you are 2/3rd through it
Gladian: Hey…I wonder if I’m more than just a friend sometimes
Zkn: What do you mean chief?
Gladian: It’s nothing…
Olivia: Gladian can keep his secrets, there’s nothing wrong with that
Beline: Gladian, you’ve really done everything you can and more for them…
Resume White World 5
When you complete it, a small door with an elevator pad next to it appears
Atoll: Hey, the Tower of Fate…
Beline: Be prepared for anything?
Gladian: Hey, if anything happens to me, I want to be buried in the Guild, around my family
Atoll: Ok…dad….
Meanwhile back in The City, Indica’s group is near a bench.
Falconer: I’m leaving Husk here, he’s not moving and we got bigger things to worry about, we’ll come back for him later
Indica: For someone who normally care a lot about him, you sure are quick to leave him here
Falconer: We’ve got other priorities, I hope he comes too eventually but, for now…
Viridian: We’ll see you around Husk…
They leave Husk slumped on the bench, while his mind is waging a war against itself
