Event || Another Side, Another Story (Conclusion)

Characters: Anyone (only characters who came in as part of the event can start new threads).
Where: Anywhere
When: 29th of February.
Summary: As the final day of the event closes in, the characters who came in are on the verge of meeting with a terrible fate: some are going to die whilst some are going to crystallize and disappear. The tragedy may happen to them anytime from 08:00 AM to 08:00 PM on this day, so they can see some of their friends die or crystallize before it happens to them—Or not. If you plan on app’ing your character next week, then nothing will happen to them so long as their application is accepted. In doubt, you are free to wait until the application round starts and your app gets processed before posting here.
Warning: Tragedies of the Greek and Shakespearean flavors.


MELODIES OF DEATH
— Warning: If you pick this option, you will lock yourself out from ever app’ing this particular version of your character again —

Maybe you were minding your own business, planning for the future as you finally reached civilization and met a lot of wonderful people. Maybe even you were thinking about ways for you to save your homeworld, ways to fight Palitutu, Garland and the Calamity. But unfortunately you will not be able to do any of these things, for a terrible fate awaits these Heroes of Light who were awakened by Kalki all these months ago.

At any time during the day, it could strike any of newly arrived Heroes of Light. At first it will start with a terrible, agonizing pain that will surge throughout their bodies—Nearly unbearable, as if they were dying. After mere seconds the pain will subside, but then they will feel life itself leaving their bodies. There would be a little bit of time for the Heroes of Light to speak final words to their friends, but only seconds to a minute at best before death catches up with them

And upon dying, the crystals of dead Heroes of Light will shatter and their bodies will remain, not crystallizing. All the Heroes of Light in Crystallis will feel a sharp pain as this happens—But the pain will grow lesser and lesser with each subsequent death, until it’ll become nothing more than a tingle.


MELODIES OF ETERNITY
— This option will have the characters crystallize and disappear, meaning they can still be app’d at some point in the future —

And because many of the newly arrived Heroes of Light, maybe you assumed you would as well—But maybe you wouldn’t. Not all of the Heroes of Light who reached Mysidia this past week were meet with such a terrible fate. Some will fall in Crystal Stasis instead. It was a state that had immobilized and taken away countless Heroes of Light before, but maybe this was better than death?

Like those who died, they will feel a terrible pain surging throughout their bodies. But rather than fading, the pain will remain as their bodies slowly crystallize. They will have the time for a farewell to their friends, but their time is limited to nothing more than mere seconds.

And only instants after their bodies fully crystallized, they will vanish, nowhere to be found.


MELODIES OF LIFE
— This option is for character being app’d and then accepted into the game —

Or maybe nothing will happen to you. But unfortunately, you can see everyone around you dying of crystallizing, and assume the same fate awaits you.

But why? Why it this happening to everyone on the same day, just after the two groups of Heroes of Light finally reunited? Surely this cannot be a coincidence…

Lust's expression didn't change as she regarded him silently; not even a bat of an eyelash. Finally she shifted her weight to the other hip, folding her arms.

"Very well," she told him flatly. "So you know what you can't do. Now enlighten me as to what it is you think you can do."

There was no way to save these people. Didn't he know this, or was he too optimistically ignorant to realize that they would die no matter what he did? Either he could stand there and watch, or put them out of their misery the way she'd been doing whenever she found someone writhing in agony on the ground.

"What I can. At least, give them peace before they pass on, or be with them so they aren't alone."

He replied giving her a serious hardened gaze. He was extremely stubborn when it came to things he wanted to do. No matter what, he was certain there was something he could to help someone somewhere, somehow. There was no saving them, and he was certain of that. Watching them fall made him realize that.

Lust's gaze was hard, almost suspicious as she listened to his reply. Then, slowly, her frown eased, and she took a half step to the side to grant him silent permission to pass her by.

"If that is your wish. Just so long as you don't sacrifice your own sanity on those who do not need it. I will think less of you if you behave foolishly."

Whether he passed her by or not, she was moving again and striding past him. It was best if they worked separately in this regard. Their goals were the same, but their methods couldn't be more different.

"I've seen much than this."

In fact, he didn't want to admit but this was a minor case compared to the things he had seen. Of course, that's something he's not going to openly state to Lust of all people right now. He's too emotionally charged. For the time being, he's trying to calm down and figure out the best route to take in the whole ordeal.

"I won't think foolishly. You have my word on that, Lust."

He replied giving her a serious gaze before moving past her and down the city streets. It seemed like this was the best for the both of them.
