[Game Thread] Pokerole: Mount Coronet Mystery

[Lord Windos]

Spoiler

Kogeki approach Rans and put a hand in his shoulder. "It's okay Randolph. I understand. It was a pleasure and a immense honor to join this adventure with ya. Fighting along with ya against Steelix...It was a painful battle, but it's prove our strenghs together."

"But...For a long time, I been searching my wife, Shimo. And I finally know where she is. I must find her. For my son. And for her. I failed with her once. I not going to fail with her again."

Kogeki then grab his sword, and offer to Rans. "Rans, I want you to carry this with you. A token of my friendship, and the bond we share in this journey. I have the feeling I might not be able to carry this sword with me, and I would hate to leave this behind. Also, ask Rowan to send a message to Lord Kaito and Lady Hinata about where I am. My sword will be the proof enough. And they will trust you, don't worry."

Kogeki then look at Arceus. "Sigh me in God. I will find my wife, no matter where she is. No matter the form I take, my heart it is in the right place."

The ninja's touch caused the dwarven craftsman to look up at them, and their words nearly brought a regretful grimace to his face, but instead he somehow managed to give them a weak smile and a nod back.

"....Thank ya, Kogeki. We haven't exactly been the closest of partners, but I can say that I've come to respect you greatly. Most men who'd gone through what you have would crack like an piece of sandstone, but you've managed to keep yourself sharp, determine, and resolute like the fine blade you carry, no matter how hard everything tried to shatter your into pieces. *Chuckles* I'm glad I've done what I could for ya arm and keeping your head still attached to your shoulders, and I'm glad....I'm glad I can call someone like ya a friend, ya damn Sleuth. *Grins* And don't call me Randolph. My friends call me Wolfe. Got it, Sleuth? "

When they made to entrust their katana to him, Wolfe's eyes went wide as the moon, as he couldn't believe they'd do such a thing or give a non-relative or close friend such a highly honorable responsibility, but when they subsequently explained why they did so his expression became both serious and solemn as he nodded once, before taking the ancient and venerable blade. "Very well. I'll keep it safe for ya, and I'll make sure your masters know the fate you've choose. *Grins* But only if ya swear you'll try your damndest to survive, and come back to me and reclaim it with your pretty wife hanging off your shoulder. *Winks* Consider it a special mission, from a friend, one with a huge reward waiting for ya upon completion. *Chuckles* Not telling you what it is, though. Think the mystery as additional motivation for ya to Hustle on that quest, along with seeing me again. Understand all that, Sleuth?"

Ran is trying his best to affect an air of light heartedness for their shakes, but it eventually fades into a gentler but more genuine feel of fond farewell as he steps away from them.

"Good. Now, get going. You're wife is not going to be saving herself, you know. Be well, take care, and.....may the waves and sun be with you on your journey."
