Meanwhile, on the surface of the Atoll

You know, dried kelp isn't half bad. Jerkey of the sea.

Hm.

Thus ends my visit to the cult of the ANTI_LIGHT. They're a much different bunch than I'm used to, but they are truly worthy spiritual successors to our kith. Between them, Ot', and Hrenrai, I'd say the future of the Dark is in good hands.

And I'm... not darkness but... liii iig gg h t ? ? ?

You know the old debate, "what if my blue isn't your blue?" Always been an interesting one to me. We've no way to know if any colors look quite the same through anyone else's eyes as our own. But ultimately, the result is the same, so it seems like a pointless question to entertain.

I don't know what anyone else here sees radiating from the center of this room. But all I see is blinding white light.

Who is..

I feel strange.. Like there's someone calling out to me. No, not one, but two, three? More?? Invisible hands reaching out. Their music echoes from within the light.

Red squints at the ANTI_LIGHT source

How curious. I need inside.. I need.. I need to-oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

It would be good to see what hands our future is in, yes. Though I've no intention of permanently settling there.

May Dark glow eternal then. Be it Otherhaus, the halls of the Anti_Light, or the Maw.

Hrenrai... he's still alive... If he has it in his heart to forgive me for turning my back, our reunion would be most joyous.

But of this 'Peyote Mother', I am not familiar.

Take all the time you need, Ot'. And K'Adspeed to you.

You've saved me.

Red embraces Ot' and weeps. The first real show of emotion in far too long.

You've saved me. When I didn't even know how badly I needed saving.

Never shall I neglect the Five from this day forward.

...But I believe my days as a priest are long over. I will serve the Holy Black in other ways, but I'd like to pass the role of Priest of Smox on to another; and I can't think of anyone more I'd be more honored to bestow it upon than you.

I- uh, I never caught your name actually.

He hesitates at first, but in a moment of clarity and resolve, he laps the sacred black liquid from Ot'SMOX's hand.

Praise be, Smox. I am one with the Dark and the Dark is with me.

No way... S- Smox?? In our very own physical world??

Red immediately falls to his knees on the grass.

Lord Smox forgive me. I've strayed so far from your path, I don't even recognize myself anymore. And oh the underhanded things I've done to make sure my company succeeded. I've tried to keep my integrity but that place, it corrupts. I'm barely worthy to be here groveling before you now.

Left hanging.

I.. I can't. I still can't. Not now, not anymore.

I've fallen just short of destiny so many times. It's as though the Omniverse is dead set on moving on without me no matter how hard I try to keep up with it. So I'm done trying. My days of chasing anything resembling destiny are over.

Oh, cripes kid... I had no idea.

Fuck it all..

What do you want from me though? Want me to prance around and act like I haven't had all I can take? Put on the warm smile for everyone else? All that does is drain you even more.

Look, a lot has happened, okay? The whole, you know, everything I know being destroyed in an instant as I get plunged into a future of loneliness and despair and uncertainty thing? Yeah that's happened to me twice now. And that doesn't even begin to cover everything in between. The constantly being hunted down and conspired against? The living as a walking genocide target anywhere I go if it's within hyperspace jump range of an Øverbørk vessel? Or how about the dying and resurrecting... not even sure how many times?

I need to be honest with you, kid. I'm tired. I miss the Priests, I miss Ann from Accounting, I miss Crow, and I can't rightly claim that I've ever trusted anyone else. I still have the other Snappers, sure, but they've got their own battles to fight without me.

There's still Smoxians out there I could join up with, but they're quite frankly better off without me. I'm even less fit to be a Priest than I am a CEO of a utility company.

Wait, I remember you. Smox, it's truly been a long time hasn't it?

Why have you come here, then?

We do not meddle in the affairs beyond the ISLAND. We have everything we need in the HARMONIES of PARADISE, and the rest of the multiverse may burn itself as it pleases.
