I'm not sure how many people know him, but Sora has gone home. At least, I really hope it is home, home and no where we were before.

Because of his departure I have another empty room if anyone is in need of a roof over their head. But I will have to note the fact that if you live in the apartment you are no to touch the puddings. They aren't mind and eating a single one will not end well for you, probably. That girl likes her pudding.

If you are interested, please let me know as soon as possible, thank you.

How much will rent cost and what is the state of the room?

[watchesthesea]

It's in good condition once I tidy it up and as for rent it isn't a lot something along the lines of 100 red bills. I think that's kind of cheap if you ask me.

[lost_heart]

...That isn't bad. Do you expect any money right away?

[watchesthesea]

Currently the rent has been paid for August already so it wouldn't be till next month.

[lost_heart]

I think I can work with that. If no other offers come in I'll take the room.

[watchesthesea]

Okay, I'll let you know hopefully within the next week.

Sora?

I am sorry.

text

[watchesthesea]

That's right.

Did you know him?

text

[deathsought]

It would be more accurate to say that he knew me. He claimed to have met me in another world, and yet I do not remember this happening.

text

[watchesthesea]

Ah, I think I understand. We had come from another world before this one, he must have spoken to you in that one. At least now I know that just because there's someone I recognise here doesn't mean they are the same person.

text

[deathsought]

As did I. And it was not even the world in which I was born.

text

[watchesthesea]

You mean you were taken to another world before this one and it wasn't where you were born? I'm just making sure I understand.

text

[deathsought]

Yes.

text

[watchesthesea]

Can I ask what that world was like then?

text

[deathsought]

Ravaged by war.

text

[watchesthesea]

By war? I'm sorry to hear that.

text

[deathsought]

Don't be. It's every bit as much my fault as it is anyone else's.

text

[watchesthesea]

Your taking about the war still, right?

text

[deathsought]

Yes.

text

[watchesthesea]

Did you cause it for something?

text

[deathsought]

The world has been in a state of chaos for four hundred years because of me.

{ Granted, humanity hasn't exactly done much to change that from his point of view. If anything, too many of them want the kind of power he used to cause it. }

text

[watchesthesea]

Four hundred years... That is a very long time.

Though how do you know that? Unless your over four hundred years old yourself?

text

[deathsought]

I am, yes.

text

[watchesthesea]

Oh, you were serious. Wow. How can you live for that long?

text

[deathsought]

It is a very long story. All I can say is that it involves dark, forbidden forms of magic.

text

[watchesthesea]

I see. Never the less I'm sorry to hear about all this. I mean I do hope you find the light that is mankind though.

text

[deathsought]

I've waited four hundred years. Humans haven't changed, repeating the same mistakes of their ancestors. Greed, war, lust for power, all while unironically condemning me for all of the above. At times, I think it's only because I succeeded where they failed. If anything, they should have taken me as an example as to why all of those things are wrong, and why they must change. They haven't. Maybe not because the can't, but because they simply won't.

I thank you for your concern, though. But I'm afraid it means very little.

text

[watchesthesea]

But the truth is that isn't everyone. It's true that many people are greedy and lust for power but there are those who choose to use what power they have for good, to protect those that need it and to stop a war from happening. I may not be able to convince you since your mind seems set on the fact of judging a few means everyone is the same, but it's the rare exceptions that make the biggest difference, even if you might not see it.

text

[deathsought]

I didn't reach this conclusion arbitrarily.

text

[watchesthesea]

Never the less the world here is different than there. Sure, where your from and where I am from it might be similar and that here has it's moment, but there are also a lot of people who helped during a tough time too. More tso than I would have expected anyway.

text

[deathsought]

True. It is different.

Though, I am not sure if my demons will agree, or even care.

text

[watchesthesea]

What are these demons that you talk about?

text

[deathsought]

Demons created by my magic.

text

[watchesthesea]

Why did you create demons?

text

[deathsought]

For a multitude of different reasons... but the most succinct way of describing it would be to serve as living weapons.

text

[watchesthesea]

But why would... I shouldn't aks, I have some idea of why you would have them.

text

[deathsought]

It is complicated.

text

[watchesthesea]

Then I won't pry into it. But it was nice talking to someone Sora said he knew.

text

[deathsought]

Likewise. Thank you.
