[Meta Thread] Pokerole Mystery Dungeon: Primal Shadows

[Mikaruge108]

And here is the first draft, to some effect, of how I planned his story to end; it seems a bit rough in some spots imo, but pretty good.

Spoiler

His journey back to Sinnoh is arduous and rough, but at last, he finally returns. Being quite shocked by how much it has changed in nearly a hundred years, he asks around to find Leigh, and after some difficulty, he at last finds her house...

*Knock* *Knock*

A kind-eyed elderly lady opens the door.
"May I help you?" She answers, with some effort, it seems it took a lot for her to answer the door.

"L-Leigh?" Spira is practically tearing up. "Is it really you?"

"Who are you?"

"I guess you don't remember me, I'm sorry to have bothered you, ma'am."

...

Despondant, Spira leaves, to Mt. Coronet and there meets Dialga, by pure chance.

SPIRA KAND, CURSED SPAWN OF DARKRAI, WHY HAVE YOU COME? Dialga booms telepathically to Spira. (Considering Dialga having done something similar to Adaman, I figured this would be fine)

"I just want to be in my own time. I am willing to do what it takes."

GIVE UP YOUR BIRTHRIGHT, AND IT SHALL BE DONE!

He nods.

A brilliant flash of light from his arm, and the Mark of Darkrai fades from it, as time reverses solely for Spira...

Back in a more familiar time, Spira rushes to the hospital in which Leigh had been comatose...

*Gasp* *Pant* "Leigh! I need to see Leigh!" He manages to get out to a nurse.

"Oh, Spira! Perfect timing, it seems that she has woken!"

As the nurse leads Spira to Leigh's room, he is sweating from nervousness.

"Here we are." The nurse smiles and winks as she returns to her duty.

"S-Spira..." Leigh starts, smiling, "I guess I overdid it huh?"

Spira sobs, in happiness.

*SOME TIME LATER*

A young man, in his late twenties finally finishes the boat ride to Creshire, on a mission. After seeking out one of the people that matches the description he was told by his parents, and their parents, he addresses her.

"Ms. Shiva?"

"You don't know me, but you did know my grandfather. This is something that he wanted done, but wasn't able to do himself because of health.  I trust that you can  handle the rest."

The young man, who still hasn't identified himself, hands Shiva a yellowed letter, and leaves...

From Spira

Dear Shiva, Nathan, Terra, Heart, and Nathan.

I hope that this letter finds one of you well.

I have, after sacrificing Darkrai's influence, managed to find my way back to my own time.

As of writing this letter, it is 10 years after I returned back to my own time, and Leigh and I are happily married. I wanted to thank all of you for the time that we were working together.

~Thus Ends the story of Spira, the breeder out of time~

A few of my own thoughts:
- Shiva was chosen for this draft since Spira was the closest to her, friendship-wise, when he left in the game; could have easily been any of the other companions though.
- The Dialga part feels forced, but it was the best backward time travel thing that I could think of.
- In one version (When I first thought of this ending some time ago) Spira's unnamed grandson was to deliver the Helm to Nathan.
