"'He', who is this person Rah was mentioning. Was it the person he talked to on the phone? Is my mother really alive or is this all another trap just to capture Temti and me? I have to find out somehow, but for now, I'll return to the camp. "
[Twilight, to himself]
As Twilight headed back for the campground riddle with nothing but questions. He began arguing with himself. Were both Rah and Iago correct had he gotten in above his head. The strange satisfaction from eliminating them both that he felt and the thought of doing the same to the others. Was that wrong of him? The more he kept questioning not just his current, but past dilemmas when it came to the matter as a whole, the more he felt himself get worse. As if the narrative within him was taking a turn for a darker side. Upon his arrival back into the camp, Aka begins asking Twilight what took so long. In which Twilight does his best to explain the ordeal.
As twilight begins to make his way through the forest. He begins explaining everything to himself. This made him wonder about the 'him' Rah kept mentioning, who could he be. As he was wandering through something began to make him feel off. A twitch made him feel off about himself; the twitch gradually got more aggressive. In the end, after the hearing started this whisper looking around paranoid he began to worry about more than just who he was. Instead, he began to feel this change within him. His arms began to change, turning it from just a regular-looking hand into a claw. One made of black fur, unknown to him what was happening to him. Transforming he began to hear a voice that told him not to be afraid of his newfound power. Once it fully went back to the arm he had before he began to ponder and wonder who it was. Sounding like that of a woman he wondered if it could have been his mother. Once he arrived at the campground the others began to question what took so long. Twilight explained what he could.
"If what you said is true that means the Cult somehow managed to arrive here on Frodimon."
[Aka]
"Yeah, and it sounded like he was not alone."
[Twilight]
"Then first thing tomorrow we have to make our way to Dragondale. I have to make sure everything is okay."
[Aka]
L.Y. 650 Seto 14 02:24 S.Q. - On the Way to Dragondale
As we headed to Dragdale I told Temti about what happened, the details I had left out when I told the others. He told me he wasn't that surprised because he's seen it happen to me while I was asleep. He never told me about them because once we learned what a Nightwalker was he figured that it was due to that. That I was transforming in my sleep. He even heard me mumble to someone once, and call out for my mother. Puzzled by everything I learned he knew, but a bit more reassured that nothing was wrong with me, I left it be.
We began our final approach to Dragdale, the area was beautiful. Though there were a bunch of fishing holes and very few places to walk for an approach. Aka told us that this would be where most of the children come to fish. From the forest you could see this giant bell tower, though it had an old timey elegance to it, it wasn't what made it catch any of our eyes. What Caught our eyes, instead it was what seemed to be other Naga flying in the sky. Though we did all notice none looked anything like Aka, which meant none were Shadow Naga. Though still a bit puzzled we kept journeying to the entrance.
L.Y. 650 Seto 14 03:04 S.Q. - Dragondale
"Welcome to Dragondale!"
[Aka]
"Woah this place looks amazing."
[Temti]
"Yeah, can we explore?"
[Gixoh]
"Please tell me there's more to eat than just fish though…."
[Liam]
"Well we are a leading fish exporting Kingdom. And yes we can explore all we want. I didn't say this before but my family is actually the head of the exporting company our island is based on."
[Aka]
"Wait, doesn't that mean your father is kind of like the King?"
[Gixoh]
"Or Chancellor?"
[Obitiga]
"Well HDC, or Head Dragon Catcher, to be exact but since he's been sick, my half brother, Hewa, I mentioned before, has been looking over the company. We should probably head to Drag's Fish and Chips HQ. That's where we will find my brother. He can tell us exactly how my father is doing. And if the Cult has somehow managed to make it here he would know."
[Aka]
Heading over to DFC HQ didn't take long, as most people were out and about living as peaceful a life as could be. Though as we entered we did pass a strange woman, she seemed to be mumbling to herself at the time.
"Fuck this shit, he will regret it when I return"
[Women, as she storms out]
That was all we were able to make out at the time. We kept making our way towards the HDC office, hoping to see Kealii, but to our surprise we ran into Hewa.
"Hey Braddah, how's our Maku."
[Aka]
"Oh, Aka, I didn't expect you back so soon. He's just doing…"
[Hewa]
[Noticing Twilight]
"Who are these people?"
[Hewa]
"Them, they be travelers I met at the outskirts, they came to see Kealii."
[Aka]
"Oh, well then sorry to inform you, he has passed."
[Hewa, speaking directly to the rest]
"Passed! Why didn't you tell me?"
[Aka, shocked]
"We just found out ourselves, not just him, the other Shadow Naga too, their families are up mourning at the Bell Tower. Did you not notice?"
[Hewa, Shocked by Aka confusion]
"That explains that."
[Gixoh]
"And you thought it was a beautiful site."
[Lepricus, to Sirisa]
"Anyway, what brings them here with you?"
[Hewa, to Aka]
"They wanted to ask Kealii about a few things. Mostly about the previous Twilight Guardian as well as the current corruption issue and where it steamed from."
[Aka]
"Oh, well hopefully some of his stuff here can help you right now. Give me a bit I've got to make a few calls. I'll help out after."
[Hewa, as he pulls out his Lightsponder and heads over to the side]
