melodiesoflife | Event || In Your Worst Memory

Characters: All Heroes of Light. Only those who signed-up can start a memory.
Where: Interdimensional Rift
When: May 27th - May 30th
Summary: The Heroes of Light relive some of their worst memories, with a twist. All characters participating in this will be physically missing from Crystallis for the duration of the event.
Warning: It depends on the memory.

Where you were or what you were doing— It does not really matter. Not any more. Everything around you freezes, nearly as if time itself stopped, as if the world was frozen in time. And before you have a chance to understand what is happening, you can hear a voice right behind you.

"Kali Shashidhwaja."

Should you turn around, you may see a child who seems to be the only one aside from you unaffected by what is happening. And as she stares right at you, it makes no doubt these strange words are aimed at you. But before you can reply to her, the world around you collapses. Reality twists and shatters... Or maybe you are the one who is collapsing and shattering away from reality as you know it. No matter what the answer is, it will only take a few seconds for you to find yourself sinking into a void, Crystallis vanishing into the distance. There is nothing but darkness as far as the eye can see.

And once again you feel different: all the powers from your Jobs are fading. Not only that, but you might find that your Crystal is gone and your clothes back to what they were before you woke up in Crystallis. It is silent, cold and before long it feels as though life itself is slipping out of you... And yet, slowly the world reforms around you. The darkness fades away and a new world appears, yet at the same time this is not a world.

This is a memory. The question is, is it yours or that of someone else?

Asbel marched ahead, leading his ragtag group of friends through the tunnels that would take them to Richard. He still couldn't figure out why he hadn't shown up, and it was bugging him a little, but not enough to stop him from checking everything out along the way.

Propping up the sword he'd "borrowed" from his dad, Asbel stood back, hands on his hips, as he eyed a large stone door. Now if he were trying to keep trespassers away from something cool, he'd definitely stick it behind a big old door like this!

Rubbing his hands together, Asbel walked up and gave the door a push, then a harder shove.

"Well crap! It won't open."

Later he'd take up the sword again, looking frustrated but far from defeated. Maybe tonight wasn't his night, but there were still plenty of other things to see and do! And maybe he'd be able to scare Richard, too.

"Hmm..." He hummed as he walked. How to go about it? He didn't want to freak him out too bad, but he deserved at least a little scare for making them worry so much.

Terra wasn't prepared for the shift into the memory. She watched the children and felt a tug in her chest at the sight. She wanted to help them. She followed close hoping that they would be safe. Her magic was back though it would be dangerous if she lost control here.

She stepped up next to the group watching the young boy attempt to move through the door.

"What's in there?" She didn't know if any of them could hear her but it was worth a try. These events made her uneasy but she didn't have any control when it came to where she found herself.

"Hrrrggh!" the child Asbel grunted, putting all of his might into pushing on the door. Third time was the charm, right? Well, apparently the door'd never heard of that rule.

"That's. What I'd--like to know but it won't. Budge an inch, grah...!"

The boy's arms slackened, but he remained leaning against the door, panting from the effort - the door which was clearly winning this little wrestling match.

"If it wasn't something important, why would they put a door here in the first place?" Asbel glowered at it, preparing to give it one last go. "Besides, if I'm gonna become a knight, I can't let some door stand in my way!"

Terra was a little surprised the boy responded to her. She watched him a moment longer before taking a step forward.

"I can blast the door open." Of course she'd insist that they all stand back. She hadn't used her powers since leaving Crystallis and while they are suppressed there that wasn't the case anymore.

"Uh, you can?" That definitely got his interest. Asbel turned from the door, sizing her up in the open way of a child. She didn't really look strong enough to blast it open, but then again, Sophie had broken down his bedroom door, not to mention outrun him, so maybe this woman was pretty tough, too.

Even if it was embarrassing to rely on someone else's help, his curiosity was winning out.

"Are we talking a biiig blast or a little one? Boy, I'd really like to see what's behind it, but if Richard was waiting just on the other side of the door it wouldn't be too good. What do you think?"

"I can make it small." Terra smiled fondly at the young children before placing her palm over the lock. She charged fire through her fingers causing the metal in the lock to expand and then melt. There was a loud popping sound and then the door swung free.

She looked back at the kids. "I hope that was alright?" She was surprised and proud that she had been able to control her magic. She didn't know how long that would last but at least she was able to help.
