[nospaces] [attr="class","petalbasetsu"] [attr="class","star1tsu"] [attr="class","circleoutline1tsu"] [attr="class","starimgtsu"] [attr="class","star2tsu"]Your voice is cut out by the wind as Hattori carries you to the ground. It doesn't matter, the warning doesn't get through. [break][break] He sets you delicately on the field next to your Ariados, and you stare directly at the guy who was running toward the tomb. He's got long blonde hair and a menacing look. Up close, he's clearly shady, clearly a suspicious individual. The type of guy you wanna keep your eyes on at all times.[break][break] But as he opens his mouth and asks about the moose with a bowl on its head to the newly arrived pokemon, clad in myth and legend, you can't help but think he's laying the stupid act on a little thick.[break][break] "Tch..."[break][break] As long as he's not about to pull a gun, you guess it doesn't matter. Not like that would be out of character for a League officer either. You're not in Hoenn anymore. Rocket, League, they barely mean a thing, wherever you are. All that matters is the kind of soul you possess. And as the king in green gazes on the crowd, you have a crawling suspicion that he can see it.[break][break] —Just how rotten and fetid yours has become by years of neglect. [break][break] You glance over at Navy, lost in thought. Everyone else is speaking too, but you can't help but feel like you've missed some crucial detail, even though you're sure you've heard the whole thing. It doesn't add up, it doesn't make sense.[break][break] You open your mouth to say something, but before you do, a message is read over your comms. A message about a fairy king, of dreams, of a poison that blunts the mind. It sound so familiar, enough to make you freeze. [break][break] Everyone speaks, but as they do, you slowly take a hand and place it in your pocket, clutching the Black Fragments still wrapped in your bandana. All the while, staring a hole through the king floating there, til finally, you speak.[break][break] "... Your hero's a failure."[break][break] Letting everyone else's words roll off you, completely lost to you, you focus on the only thing that could possibly matter. All the pieces are slowly sliding into place now, with just those words. You'll have to thank whoever read that off later, but for now, names don't matter. [break][break] All that matters is answers.[break][break] "Letting all this happen, it's obvious, right? Whatever caused it, the hero either couldn't stop it, or they saw they couldn't cut it and gave up. Either way, the result's the same. They failed, so we gotta pick up the slack. I'm all for it, sure, but... I gotta ask a question first, 'Your Majesty'..."[break][break] You crack an involuntary smile. You can't help it. What you're thinking, it can't be anything more than a cruel joke. [break][break] The still-beating heart of the Deep echoes in your ears as you stare deep into the king's eyes, and judge him with your entire being.[break][break] "What kinda King lets their great Hero fail? Doesn't her failure reflect on you as well?"[break][break] It's an indictment of the right to rule, the very kingly aura this pokemon possesses called into question. Because, as calamity comes and goes, it falls to the king to support his hero with all his being, to the very end. That he's here now, seemingly fine, while his hero is lost amid ruin, it's the cruelest thing of all.[break][break] Perhaps this land would simply be better off, sunk into the Deep...[break][break] oSgiYDQF [break][break] +Tsubaki is placed near Navy and Shred by Greninja.[break] +Tsubaki compares League protocol with Rocket's, a little jaded by FERNANDO SILPH aiming an attack right at her. [break] +Tsubaki listens to Gunner Graves 's transmission.[break] +Tsubaki grasps the Black Fragments a little tighter before asking her question: "What kinda king lets their great Hero fail?"[break] +She'll go wherever there's a fight to be had, like Navy [attr="class","star3tsu"] [attr="class","rouxcredittsu"] ♠[newclass=.petalbasetsu]font:11px roboto;--accent:#d5bed2;[/newclass] [newclass=.petalbasetsu]max-width: 450px; height: auto;border: 1px solid #1a1a1a; border-radius: 10px; overflow: hidden; background: #252525; [/newclass] [newclass=.star1tsu]border-radius: 10px 10px 0px 0; max-width: 460px; height: 220px; background: url(https://i.imgur.com/r3Sgi2E.png), rgb(160, 132, 155, 0.65); background-blend-mode: luminosity; background-attachment: fixed; background-size: contain; display: flex; justify-content: center; align-items: center;[/newclass] [newclass=.starimgtsu]width: 100px; height: 100px; position: relative; border-radius: 100%; object-fit: cover;[/newclass] [newclass=.starimgtsu img]height:100px;width:100px;border-radius:100%;[/newclass] [newclass=.star2tsu]width: 350px; padding: 20px; font-size: 13px; text-align: justify; color: #eee; margin: 20px 0px 20px 0px; border-radius: 5px;[/newclass] [newclass=.petalpoketsu]text-align: center; margin: 0 auto; [/newclass] [newclass=.petalpoketsu img]margin-top:0px; [/newclass] [newclass=.circleoutline1tsu]border-radius: 100%; width: 120px; height: 120px; background: var(--accent); opacity: 0.3; position: absolute; [/newclass] [newclass=.star2tsu b]font-weight: bold; color:var(--accent);[/newclass] [newclass=.star2tsu i]text-decoration:italic; color:var(--accent);[/newclass] [newclass=.star3tsu] border-radius: 0px 0px 0px 0; max-width: 460px; height: 50px; background: url(https://i.imgur.com/r3Sgi2E.png), rgb(160, 132, 155, 0.65); background-blend-mode: luminosity; background-attachment: fixed; background-size: contain; display: flex; text-align:center;[/newclass] [newclass=.rouxcredittsu]align:right; color:#AB4646; font-size:10px; text-align:right; padding:10px; [/newclass] [/quote]
