After the abrupt silence, the scenery shifted once more, and Arthur found himself back in the dark space, standing opposite the older version of himself seated atop the throne.
"What was that?"
[I do not know.]
"What was THAT?"
[I do not know.]
Arthur finally snapped.
"WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT?!!"
[I do not know.]
"How the fuck don't you know?!
You're the one who said you wanted to tell me a story, and now you're telling me you don't even know what that was?!
What kind of bullshit is that?!"
Storming forward, Arthur grabbed the older version of himself by the shirt.
"What the fuck are you?!
You're the one who showed me that lucid dream, weren't you?! Telling me I'm gonna have to face that monster in the future—
And now you're saying it's unknown whether I'd even survive?!!"
[I never said that was your future. The events you just witnessed are happenings of the past.]
