[b]Vio waits for more to be said, then looks around for whatever caused them to stop speaking.[/b]
English
-
[b]The talking resumes, but in hushed tones. After a while, Anri busts out.[/b] [i]"Anri, please..."[/i] [b]She and Yuria walk right past Vio.[/b]
-
[b]Vio quickly makes herself appear invisible, and follows.[/b]
-
"Is it right? That's the fire..." [i]"You believe that the Age of Fire should continue? Anri, if the Fire lives on, the land will be stuck in a constant cycle of death and destruction."[/i] "But...the Age of Dark..." [i]"What about it?"[/i] "Isn't it supposed to be...bad?" [b]Yuria is silent for a bit.[/b] [i]"It will be up to us to figure that out, Anri."[/i]
-
[b]Vio continues following.[/b]
-
"So you're telling me...you want me to end the Age of Fire." [i]"And begin a new age of prosperity. Yes."[/i] [b]Anri sighs.[/b] "I'll...I'll try..." [i]"Good, Anri...but we must prepare. I will mentor you. I will teach you."[/i]
-
[i]That doesn't sound good,[/i] [b]Vio thinks to herself.[/b]
-
[i]"You will be my student. Will you allow me to be your trainer?"[/i] "... I will." [i]"Thank you, Anri. May the dark sigil guide thee."[/i] [b]Yuria leaves. Anri is standing still.[/b]
-
[b]Vio appears and slowly walks up to Anri.[/b] "Sooo."
-
"Hey, Vio..."
-
"I'll pretend I never heard that, then ask what Yuria wanted."
-
"It's complicated...like really, really complicated."
-
"So complicated, that my puny brain can't handle it?"
-
"I wouldn't put it like that..."
-
"Hmm. Well, if you don't want to tell me, I won't ask."
-
"Ugh...fine, I'll tell you."
-
"Um... I just said you didn't have to, did I?"
-
"I'll tell you, alright? If you really want to know."
-
"Oh, okay. Tell me."
-
"I'm an Unkindled. Basically, I'm a person that was supposed to reignite a fire to keep the world going, but I screwed up. I got brought back, and...yeah. Yuria knows that linking the fire isn't the right path though...atleast, she tells me. She wants me to let it die out...to extinguish it. She's right...my realm has gone to hell, because people senselessly bring the fire back, over and over."
-
"Okay. And, do you believe her?"
-
"...Yeah. I do. I want it to stop. There has to be another way...a better way, for my land..."
-
"So, you just leave it? Let the fire die?"
-
"I'll literally have to crush it. Like...with my hands. So yeah...wherever that fire may be, of course."
-
"Well... if you really believe Yuria, then I'll help you find it however I can?"
-
"I...I guess. She said she had to train me and all, so yeah. But thanks."
