Who: idk some douche and you
When: Day 93, morning
Where: Shrine room!
What:

[THERE'S A LOUD THUNK as some dude appears, gasping for air, eyes darting around, clearly bewildered. Once he's certain he can breathe, he quickly gets to his feet, sword drawn, scanning the shrine room, but not posed to attack]

What is this. . .hello? Anyone! I am the Commander of the Nidellia Defense Corps, it'd do you good to answer me!

((introoo for Kharg. He is half human half drakyr (dragon deimos!1) but doesn't look it at all, aside from some pointy ears 8> Only around for a bit but will pick up all the things ETA okay fine HE ALSO HAS RED EYES and the exact same birthmark as Darc on his right shoulder 8V))

Comments

okay i'll stop

[windsofwar]

[then just...sort of stares at him, confused. lowers his sword 8|;]

. . .

Darc? What are you doing back on Ragnoth?

OH MY GOD JUST KILL YOURSELF. OH WAIT

[scaledeep]

This isn't Ragnoth, obviously! Look around you! What the hell are you doing here?

WAS IT JUST KILLING YOU TO SAY THAT? I MEAN GOSH.

[windsofwar]

It's hard to tell from inside, Darc. I just washed up here, and I'm trying find who to thank. . . What, is this Deimos territory? I've only seen one.

[scaledeep]

This isn't anyone's territory...!

How the hell could you--...! [SSEEETTHHE]

[windsofwar]

. . .[tilts his head at him, then shakes it]

It doesn't matter. If you're here too, we should work together to find a way back. Even if there were good intentions, I don't plan on staying here too long.

[scaledeep]

--!!!

As if I'd just team up again! And it isn't going to be so simple!

[windsofwar]

Don't be stubborn. You must have arrived at the same time too, right? Perhaps it was a coordinated abduction. . .in any case, we can persuade whoever's responsible for this and get back to business. I feel like it'd be good for the people here to realize they shouldn't give up so easily, too.

[scaledeep]

I've been here for days. And it's gods that did this! Feel free to chat them up, but you won't be pep-talking any of these people into thinking they can claw a way out of this, human or Deimos--!

You're dead! How the fuck... could you die? You idiot!

[windsofwar]

[aaand any tension he was trying to hide is UP AND RISING. squeezes the hilt of his blade]

Who's dead?! I can't accept that! I won't accept that for you either--! Did the great Deimos King finally decide to just roll over and give up? This isn't right!

[scaledeep]

Shut up! As if I'd just roll over! Obviously I can't accept this!

[windsofwar]

Then why are you even here?

[scaledeep]

Because--!

Because I--! Damn it!

[windsofwar]

[just. just shakes his head and gives a snort]

Unacceptable. I'm not done yet, and with all your big talk, I know you're far from it too. This can't be true death.

[scaledeep]

Kh... obviously we're still alive.

But we're not on Ragnoth! And we're not on our world. Gods that aren't ours brought us here to fulfill their own new chosen story.

[windsofwar]

. . . [gettin' real tired of this shit, deities!1 squeezes his shoulder]

If this world needs help. . .fine. I have no qualms about fighting for those in need, where ever they are.

But my people are still a priority. If we're not really dead, there must be a way back. There's just too much at stake to play after life right now.

[scaledeep]

You think you can find a better solution than me? Good luck there!

Just what the hell did you do before you got here? You're supposed to be deep in human territory!

[windsofwar]

I know I can, though it would benefit us both if we worked together. Have you forgotten that?

[just. makes a huff, sheathes his sword]

Supposed to be, huh? For your information, I started travelling alone the last month. . .for political reasons. I had just made a brief stop at an isolated village to take care of a monster problem.

[scaledeep]

A monster...!

Monsters...

[windsofwar]

[r u okay bro. kind of side eyes him, turning]

It was slain, if that's what you're wondering.

[scaledeep]

[nope

crazy laughter]

Ha ha ha...! A monster. . .

I was fighting monsters, too, before I came here.

[windsofwar]

[. . .still turned]

I fail to see what makes it so hilarious. Is that coincidence the only reason you aren't calling me weak or pathetic?

[scaledeep]

[grits his teeth]

It is weak and pathetic. Of all ways!

[MAN I

NOPE

TURNING AWAY TOO]

[windsofwar]

[FINE]

[BE LIKE THAT]

Then you are calling yourself pathetic. Confusing as always.

I already told you, I won't accept it. Any of it.

[scaledeep]

I'm not going to stick around and listen to your absurd delusions! Go ahead and wear yourself out on them. Think you can do better than anyone else here!

I've had enough of it!

[STARTING TO LEAVE]

[windsofwar]

[woah what!! whirls around to glare]

I'm not delusional! Is it wrong? Have you spoken to any of these so called gods? I can't believe you, of all people, won't even consider it! I'm not better than anyone, I just want to help them!
