[Welcome to 60 minutes on BSN, I'm Morty Zafer and today I will be talking with the new sensation, the innovator, inventor, creator extraordinaire, Mr. Raven Oscars...]
*Applause*
Sitting across from the older man was a young black-haired handsome boy with piercing blue eyes adorned in an expensive-looking black suit smiling playfully, maintaining a casual but confident atmosphere.
[Mr. Oscars thank you for coming on, I know you seldom take interviews...]
"It's not a problem at all Morty. I simply haven't had the chance as my new creation has been keeping me busy..."
[New creation? Haha well don't let me get ahead of myself, let's start with the first question...]
[Up to date, Mr. Oscars, you have introduced two 'new worlds' into Altissia. The Four Nations and Minecraft. There is a brand new economy surrounding your worlds and Origin City and I have to admit, I have watched every Heaven's Arena battle above the two hundredth floor to date... The sheer novelty is amazing so, for the curious or aspiring minds out there, can you speak to your creative process?]
"Sure Morty..."
Over the course of thirty minutes, many softball questions were tossed towards Raven to which he provided simple answers with grace but finally, a meaty question was put forth...
[Mr. Oscars, there has been little opposition to what you are doing however, 'little opposition' does not mean 'no opposition'...Many citizens out there are concerned with the safety and mental health of individuals going into The Four Nations. While Minecraft may be "a game", TFN is 'another world' in the eyes of the public and is seen as dangerous if left unrestricted. What say you about these concerns?]
"The concerns of the public are serious and I don't take them lightly. Moreover, I don't wish to take away from those concerns so I want to stress this point, attendance is not mandatory nor is watching streams or videos from the worlds. It is completely voluntary moreover, Minecraft is a 'safe' world and there will be other game-like worlds like it for the non-hardcore divers to enjoy..."
Morty smiles and nods his head in an agreeing manner, obviously a fan of the 'hardcore' side of Altissia if watching two-hundredth floor arena fights is of any indicator.
[One of our sources told us that you are working with an animation company to produce a TV series that will reflect the main plot of The Four Nations. Is this true or simply a rumor?]
"It is true. The plot that I created for the series reflects the story of TFNs, the plot spans the course of about a year. Once Travelers have 'lived' through the plot I will release the series to the public since many people would never Dive into TFNs to experience it themselves for various reasons..."
[Can you give the public a glimpse of what to expect as far as difficulty or danger in your upcoming worlds?]
"Sure, in fact, that is partly why I am here Morty. If The Four Nations could be considered moderately hardcore(medium), then Minecraft could be considered non-hardcore (easy). There will be many worlds that resemble Minecraft in difficulty and danger down the line...
However, the next world would be a step beyond TFNs and would represent the 'extremely hardcore' (Hard) genre. It is another 'real' world like TFNs with similar restrictions but is more perilous.
To that point, Divers will not be allowed into greater than moderately difficult worlds unless they've been screened in a world like TFNs first, so one year from now, when I open up The Shinobi World, only veteran TFN Divers will be able to enter..."
With so much information to process, Morty took a second to collect himself and think through his next question as what's written next on his paper is unfit to be asked at this time...
[Since we only have a small amount of time left, can you tell us about the next world and what it's like?]
A mysterious smile crosses Raven's face as he replies simply, standing up to leave his mansion in Altissia (where the interview is taking place), he speaks eloquently as he began to walk towards the exit of the room...
"Well, I don't think I could do it justice even as the creator so I invited someone to tell their story and give a glimpse of what it's like in The Shinobi World..."
*Caw* *Caw* *Caw* *Caw* *Caw*
From the windows and ceiling, crows began to fill the room after Raven left... Morty was speechless...
Before he could call out for Mr. Oscars the crows converged together in the very chair that Raven once sat, and slowly a handsomely-sharp young man with pronounced tear-ducts appeared.
He had long black hair and painted nails, sported a long robe with red clouds imprinted on it and a necklace decorated with half 'yin-yang' symbols. He draped his right arm through the front of his robe and slowly opened his eyelids, looking at Morty with his captivating red eyes...
*Gulp*
Feeling the atmosphere that turned sharp, depressing, and deadly, Morty had a hard time collecting himself...
After two minutes or so of just staring at the exotic-looking man and letting the film crew take footage from different angles, all while the man just sat there....stoic and silent, Morty *coughed* and asked...
[Who are you?]
To which the young man smiled with his eyes and tilted his head before answering...
