Argenti's Palace

The stage is set they say;
They don their masks and shields,
Shadows creep and cover their minds;
Now, what beautiful role shall they play?

[ She can be Pink forever. ]

Maybe. Or... a more powerful god took them? Anything's possible, right? That kind of thing can be pretty common in worlds with gods.

[goei]

I didn't even think of that! What if she got eaten like that weirdo Arjuna did??

[IZOU. NO ONE KNOWS WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT]

[gardenful]

[ She furrows her brows. ]

The what?

[goei]

Oh, one of the missions I went on back home, we went to this lostbelt, a like, real fucked up timeline, where this idiot Arjuna basically ate all the hindu gods so he could get powerful enough to keep resetting the world or whatever?

[gardenful]

[ WELL THEN. ]

Did he have a good reason for it...?

[goei]

I dunno, even the regular Arjuna's kinda batty. I think he thought he was gonna make the perfect world or somethin' if he could keep prunin' out the stuff he didn't like.

[gardenful]

I hope he realized that that kind of thing never works. Ever.

[goei]

Nah we had to beat him up about it. But also that weird onmyouji was whisperin' in his ear I think so that's probably partly why he was makin' such bad decisions.

[gardenful]

That'll do it.

[ There are probably things like that back in her world, honestly. ]

Were you able to snap him out of it?

[goei]

I guess so since I see that fucker floatin' around in Chaldea now too.

[gardenful]

I'm guessing Chaldea is your home...?

[goei]

Somethin' like that. The base camp fer where I've been summoned, at least.

[gardenful]

Summoned?

[ Base camp??? ]

Sounds like you've got a lot going on back home.

[goei]

Oh yeah, I'm a heroic spirit! If ya get famous enough when yer alive, good or bad, after ya die you can become one!

[He's clearly proud of the fact that he made a big enough of a name for himself.]

[gardenful]

Really?

[ That's pretty cool, honestly! Different worlds have all kinds of rules, don't they? ]

What'd you get famous for?

[goei]

[Well normally he's very proud of it but this nice pink lady doesn't seem like she'd approve of it.... Oh well!]

I'm one of the Four Great Manslayers of the Bakumatsu Revolution. So, killin' people, more or less.

You can call me Sword Genius Okada Izou!

[gardenful]

[ Manslayer, huh? Just how many people here have made a name off of killing? It's starting to feel like a lot. Aerith doesn't know how to feel about it, but then again, her friends have killed lots of Shinra soldiers, so... ]

You got it, Sword Genius Okada Izou.

[ Get ready to always be called that! ]
