[Game Thread] Lord Windos’ PokeRole Adventure 2: The Wild Lands

[Dragonstrike]

Spoiler

Kusanagi simply laughs more and inclines their own head to you, before taking a deep draw of your pact, made bloody and real.

…You do taste something besides blood.

Nostalgia.

Sadness.

Longing.

Finality.

And the deepest, Darkest Water of life.

You Boa, safely tucked away, resonates with you briefly, then stills.

Such as it was.
Such as it will be.
Such as it is.

And.
That. 
Is.
That.

Kusanagi joins your Party.

~~~

Later, you are escorted back to the front, and the bartender was there waiting, a slight smirk on her face.

”Done as diner, yeah? Everything go smooth, or was Kusa the same passive aggressive asshole as she ever was?”

Live by the Sword, die by the Sword.  Whether it's for glory or while aiding those in need.

Restless souls, both past and present, given second chances to achieve what they set out to do.

May this Sword of Glory help guide her allies to a better future, however briefly she fights alongside them.  And may Seddi help guide Kusanagi to the glorious end that she desires, so that she can finally rest in peace.

~~~

Seddi's got that sly smile on his face again as he wraps things up at the bar.  "Went smooth as a hot blade slicin' butter.  Reachin' a mutual understandin' with the ol' girl wasn't too difficult after I brought up what I'm intendin' to do.  Pleasure doin' business with ya."  Seddi will tip his hat to the bartender.
