Argenti's Palace

[beautifulknight]

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?

[It isn't surprising that Argenti has suffered. That he has lost those he cared for; that he has had to put them down by his own hands. It isn't a surprise that they're shown this now, to better understand what Argenti has been through. Argenti does not falter because he cannot falter. Whether because of his oath, his goddess, or simply because that's who he is, Fray understands this intrinsically. It's what drives good people like Argenti. Heroes. People like him suffer so much because they open themselves up to caring so much.

Fray grips something tightly in his hand as he returns to himself. Argenti's feelings were his own for a moment and even now it takes him far too long to shake them off. Grief, despair, fear... how common have these feelings been for someone like him, someone born of such emotions?

He pockets the thing in his hand and takes a breath to steady himself. When next we meet, I'll ensure you're no longer anyone's pawn. There's nothing to be done but keep moving forward. His eyes burn red already.]
