(No context will supplied for the following dialogue at the moment, as this may or may not become formed into a story. This may or may not be related to drawings I have posted in the past) Read below... DIALOGUE OF VAIREN, THE WATCHER OF RIFTS, to a wandering being... "Why do you keep doing this? You don't need to prove yourself to me..." "..." "Is it so that you can live eternally? For power? I have not seen these intentions inside of you..." "..." "Is it in service? If so, I have already stated that you do not have to do this. I have even warned against doing so." "I... ..." "Why do you constantly move, world between world, just for the purpose of trying to leave? Do you get enjoyment? Is this your twisted idea of fun?" "...No..." "Then... why?" "..." "..." "Because, with all that I've done, how could I go back knowing what I know?" "..." "..." "I know what I asked you to do was an ordeal, but now that it's gone, all you're doing is simply forcing yourself into it." "But... Isn't this why you called me? To instill connections between worlds leading to your domain, so that you could influence them?" "You and I both know that isn't true. I saw potential in you, and I wanted to observe it in exchange for saving your life. I only needed you one time..." "..." "..." "Why are you letting me go so quickly?" "I have already tried letting you go, because you had shown what you could do, and I wanted to put you back into your world. Why won't you let me?" "..." "..."
Just another fluttering fragment of a story travelling through my mind... Music: "Path of Pain" - Christopher Larkin (Hollow Knight) "No casualties need to be caused... no destruction needs to be made... except for THE LIGHT... THE LIGHT... that needs to go in order to sustain a great power's domain..."
