So Lost and Tired | OPEN

[im_pancake]

[Twilight had been quite strained since the murders had started. She always held the idea that these murders were a message, that what Palitutu had said was right and that they focused too much on themselves and too little on those around them. Biggs' letter proved her right on all counts. She was already angry with the Heroes because of how they acted, but now...

If you go past the Laboratory, you'll hear the sounds of things crashing and breaking and if you go investigate, you'll see Twilight wrecking her end of the building in anger and grief. If she catches you, she'll bring up a desk to throw at you and will throw it if you were there when Zelda died. Except if you were Shining.]

What do YOU want?!

Throw tantrums? I doubt it.

[He's not being nice anymore. Ever since he got Biggs' letter, he's done with the friendly facade. Friendly accomplished nothing.]

[And right now, Twilight's not being the Princess of Friendship she's supposed to be, either.]

I'm throwing a tantrum because right now I'd rather tell the Heroes here how much they stink! That what Palitutu told me two months ago was right and that all they care about is themselves!

[Ales sighs and steps in. There's truth in what Twilight says, and he has to agree.]

You're right about that.

[His eyes flicker over as he folds his arms.]

We let civilians die because we thought keeping one of us alive was more important. That's not what protectors of the people are supposed to do.

[im_pancake]

You're right, we're not supposed to. Especially when everyone would rather fight over that one person.

[Twilight sighs as she flops down on her rear.]

I don't like fighting. I really don't. I'll fight if we need to, but... I feel like there's always another way if people would stop and listen.

[That gets an eyebrow raise. He didn't know the details of the fight, but he was aware that the main point of contention was whether to kill Rialynn or not. And yet Twilight doesn't like fighting.]

There are times when talking it out doesn't work. Some people don't listen to reason, and the only way to stop them from ruining the land is to use force.

Even when the one ruining things is supposed to be the rightful ruler.
