We open up outside the Guild, and Olivia is sitting nearby, suddenly two figures walk outside the building
Atoll: Ya know, I really wonder if Iseri is gonna stay grandmaster?
Veloct: I honestly don’t think he will, man looks like he’s gonna retire at some point
Atoll: I feel like you might be right about that?
Veloct: See, I got a mind like a race car, moving at two miles per minute, I can grasp things easily
Suddenly, the two Guild members turn to see Olivia slumped on the steps of the Guild
Veloct: Who’s that?
Olivia: I’m Olivia, thank you for being courteous enough to go introduce yourself.
Veloct: Oh, you like helped save the world
Olivia: I did
Atoll: Uh why are you just loitering here, I thought you wanted to live your life
Olivia: I did…that’s the whole reason I fought Optica for my own freedom
Veloct: So what’s the problem?
Olivia: Turns out life is so incredibly grand, that I don’t really know what to do?
Atoll: I see, well, let’s go
Olivia: Huh?
Atoll: Let’s go experience life
Veloct: Huh, we’re just gonna go and get out there
Atoll: When was the last time you actually did something fun?
Veloct: Touche, let’s go.
Olivia: So, we’re going
Atoll: Yeah, let’s go right now!
Olivia: Ok…
Olivia, Atoll and Veloct take off into the city
Begin District 2
When you are halfway through
Olivia: The city is so peaceful
Atoll: It’s pretty beautiful when everything is not on fire
Veloct: I’m so fast that I experience everything relative to you, yet I feel captured by the majesty of this moment?
Olivia: Now that she’s gone, The City shines as bright as the stars.
Atoll: This is the moments that I fight for?
Veloct: Fighting needs a reason?
Atoll: Most people have one, even if that reason is that you love to fight?
Olivia: What about bad reasons?
Atoll: They’re still reasons…
Resume
When you complete District 2
Veloct: I’m honestly having a blast…
Olivia: This is all the fun I’ve been missing
Stolen from Royal Road, this story should be reported if encountered on Amazon.
Atoll: I’m glad this is fun for you
Veloct: We should really go out more
Olivia: Every time the city is in ruins, they somehow rebuild, don’t t they?
Atoll: Yeah, even if it takes years
Veloct: Glad we can see the beauty in life.
Olivia: Huh…
Begin District 3
When you are halfway through
Olivia: I wonder….what reason mortals have for living?
Atoll: What’s the reason for life?
Veloct: I’m too young to be waxing philosophical but…I’d say there’s no reason for life, we are so me make the most of living
Atoll: The reason for life is living, but we don’t often think about this because we’re so busy living life in the thick of it.
Olivia: Is that so…
Atoll: We’ve gone so far, why would we turn back now
Resume
When you come across a broken down church
Atoll: Hey…this building?
Veloct: What about it?
Atoll: This is where The First Night Mages killed Sien and Optica’s plan was kicked into full gear
Veloct: What should we do with it?
Olivia: We should set it on fire!
Atoll: Huh?
Olivia: We can say goodbye to old memories and painful starts, we can just look forward to the future then…
Atoll: We’d probably get in trouble even if it’s a good idea
Veloct: Let’s do it anyway
Atoll: Why?
Veloct: Us young people are supposed to be miscreants, and no one is using this place anyway.
Atoll: Fair point
Olivia: I will wait here, you can get everyone else
Olivia waited in front of that Church for Atoll and Veloct arrived with fire supplies
Atoll and Veloct showed up with a cart of Molotov Cocktails and matches, with other people tagging along
Atoll: We had some other interested parties in setting this church on fire?
Atlantic: Hey Olivia
Olivia: Hey Atlantic
Veloct: Us young people huh
Larkin: Well what’s life if we’re not actively living it?
Vendil: I’ve saved the world too many damn times for my age, I want to do a little bit of mischief
Olivia: Well said I guess
Ehl: If everyone is in agreement I’d love to torch the place
Iehn: We can get pretty crazy huh
Olivia: Oh hey who are you?
Iehn: I’m Iehn, I’m here so you lot of miscreants don’t accidentally hurt yourselves too badly
Vendil: Aren’t you the same age as us?
Iehn: Well…yeah..
Olivia: You don’t gotta pretend that you wanna light something on fire
Iehn: Eh fair enough
Nori: Hey guys I’m here too
Atoll: Chaperoning Larkin even though you two are similar in age?
Nori: Yup…
Neve: I’m here too
Olivia: Hey
Neve: Hey
Larkin: We don’t really get to see you that often, huh Neve?
Neve: Well I’m busy trying to advocate for the lost culture of my people
Nori: It’s a noble cause
Vendil: Is anyone else gonna join us?
Another person rushes in
Whoyn: Hey guys sorry for being late
Ehl: Oh hey Whoyn
Vendil: Why did I expect you not to show up?
Whoyn: You shouldn’t have, Ghyall is the present and he wants to be there for present moments and I want to light something on fire
Ghyall: It’s true, I wouldn’t want Whoyn to miss hanging out with his friends
Vendil: You really care about your hosts huh
Ghyall: Yes, why?
Olivia: What a benevolent ancient god
Larkin: They’re all benevolent, except Gevhim who tried to kill us
Ehl: He did huh
Vendil: You would never
Olivia: We’re not the things we used to be
Larkin: I’m still a celebrity
Nori: Keep telling yourself that
Olivia: Let him believe what he wants
Iehn: Believe, what do you believe in?
Olivia: I believe in change, and freedom
Atoll: Nice
Atlantic: Hey guys, I know you love your sentimentality, but can we start lighting shit on fire?
Another person arrives suddenly
Vivuhal: Hey guys…sorry for being late, we’re lighting stuff on fire correct?
Olivia: Yeah you’re cool
Atlantic: Ok, we’re all here now?
Larkin: Well, let’s do this…
Veloct: No time like the present
The group starts grabbing Molotovs and Matches and begin throwing them into the Church, igniting a fire
Suddenly a small group of Light Monsters appear but get burned alive in the flames
Atoll: Give them an A for effort huh?
Iehn: Nah, this is our night
Olivia: I agree
The fire spreads across the church, and begins climbing up the walls
Iehn: We can do whatever we want, we’re free being after all
Olivia: I most certainly agree
The entire building begins emitting smoke and crumbling into soot and dust
Atoll: This is our moment and we don’t have to tell a soul about it
The Group pushes the rest of the cart in as The Church continues burning to the ground, they then walk away from the fruit of their labor
Olivia: That was quite fun?
Neve: It really was
Vivuhal: Hey Olivia, that’s your name right?
Olivia: Yeah, what about me?
Vivuhal: I believe I speak for everyone when I say..you should join the guild, we’re all friends and well, we’d love to see you around more often?
Olivia: You really think I should?
Atoll: Why shouldn’t you?
Vivuhal: We’d be really happy to have you
Veloct: I can vouch for everyone when I say there will be no objections
Olivia: Well…I guess I’ll join
Olivia and Co then went back home and Olivia would soon begin her first day as a member of guild life
