Chaos is known as the being that never became a star. It is everywhere and yet nowhere at the same time.
Neither good nor evil, the ultimate expression of nothingness. The antithesis of the cosmos, creation itself.
Although Chaos claims to be the very state of existence from which the first entities appeared, it cannot form into the entity it wants most.
So it has been cursed to stay in the form of a dark and shapeless void. Floating between existence and nonexistence.
Longingly watching as stars are constantly born and lives are lived. The seeds of malice had been planted, flourished and transformed Chaos into the purest form of evil.
He was expecting an odd answer, he really shouldn't have had been surprised what answer he'd gotten, a magical contract? A contract as in a document both parties agree to the terms? One offers one thing, the others off another? He didn't sign any papers? Also Magic, did the terms of magic work differently.. Like well magic? Became a Magi, and it did exist? He was slightly confsed by this, yeah the girl was a magician after all..
Thinking back to the magician girl, the other male's gauntlets disappeared, causing him to step back as the male clapped and they were back. His only response was rather boring, "woah..." As this really didn't sink in anything, except hey that looks super duper cool! Though the male did catch Alex's attention, and Alex listened as the Knight in Shining armor continued on.. About Monsters, grief seeds, soul gem, contractors, yada yada. It seriously.. Sounded more like some sort of RPG video game than actual real life. It almost reminded him of those couple software he and a couple of buds worked together to complete. "Grief seeds? Are they what the magician lady... uhh eeer... Contractor person.. Was talking about? To fetch? Uhh.. Like a NPC Quest, right?" He replied the clear cut confusion in his voice attempting to wrap his head around it. "Are the plague people like those skeletons, from earlier? The ones were attacking? That.. Why.. You eeer uhh were oer there? in that.. uhh RPG get up?" He paused confusion going to a sudden dawn of realization. "You were all playing larping! Large larping city wide arena, oh!" He snapped his fingers answering almost too happily like he had solved the whole mystery. not quite catching on.
"Whoa..." Woah indeed. There was a lot of information to take in but Ringo hoped that he explained the gist of it. "Grief seeds? Are they what the magician lady... uhh eeer... Contractor person.. Was talking about? To fetch? Uhh.. Like a NPC Quest, right?" Well, that was certainly a way to put it. "Are the plague people like those skeletons, from earlier? The ones were attacking?" Come to think of it, Ringo was going to have to come back and get rid of them before they become a problem... "That.. Why.. You eeer uhh were oer there? in that.. uhh RPG get up?"
"Rocket prope-oh you mean my armor! No, this is just my ma-..."
"You were all playing larping! Large larping city wide arena, oh!" This one was further from the proper conclusion than Ringo thought. Hmmm.
"Um..w-we aren't playing pretend. This is super real." A nervous laugh as Ringo demonstrated with his gauntlets again.
The guy attempted to answer, but he was too busy figuring it out only to cut the man off. Only for the Knight to give a nervous laugh about playing pretend, all super real, showing that Yes... They Are Real... Stop.. Lying to yourself. That this is ALL REAL. That Magician lady was REAL. That he was to gather these Grief Seeds, that he was now Magical.. That he was to fight evil.
He took a small gulp stepping back toward the wall finding comfort in something he had known to exist for a long time.. Something he hoped wouldn't just tumble down because Reality was slamming down HARD. "Oh. Its. Real. Not Larping. That lady, the Contractor. Really helped me out... Capable saving others.. Stop evil. " He shooke his head, why did this always happen to him? First the Police force, wanting him to join.. Now Magical Deity forces? "Heh. Great. Saving people, just like my parents."
Slowly the facade slipped on... Slowly.. He fell to old patterns lying to the adults, pretending to be something he wasn't. Stepping forward large grin on his face, "Finally! I can actually help out this world from evil doers!" He hated himself, he hated his act.. His LIE. Slowly he stepped from the wall. "We should probably go look for trouble? SHouldn't we. Best part ways."
He stepped around he guy planning to run off, before pausing. Pulling out his phone from the onsie pocket. "Could you give me your number? If you wish to hide your identity that's fine, I-I take your hero name." Motioning toward the guy still wearing the helmet, still having no clue... Who he was. "We could, maybe help each other out?" He offered still uncertain, actually planning to never call.. or answer the phone. All. A Lie.
"Oh. Its. Real. Not Larping. That lady, the Contractor. Really helped me out... Capable saving others.. Stop evil." Ringo slowly nodded at Alex's words. He seemed to be accepting it was real? Maybe? "Heh. Great. Saving people, just like my parents."
"Hm?"
"Finally! I can actually help out this world from evil doers!" Ringo flinched in surprise. "We should probably go look for trouble? SHouldn't we. Best part ways."
"Wai-."
"Could you give me your number? If you wish to hide your identity that's fine, I-I take your hero name."
"Hold on a mo-."
"We could, maybe help each other out?"
"Before any of that..." It was honestly a touch unusual how gung-ho he is about this now considering his earlier doubts. "You got to be cautious, your soul gem is supremely dirty and who knows what will happen if it is completely corrupted. So let me get you some grief seeds to clean it up first."
Before any of what? He paused slightly half listening, slightly half wanting to just get away end all of this. The male only continue
"You got to be cautious, your soul gem is supremely dirty and who knows what will happen if it is completely corrupted. So let me get you some grief seeds to clean it up first."
Alex huffed, it was like the Shining Knight was some sort of broken tutorial. He got it defeat the villains, clear the gem. bam done. "I guess you don't have any spares.... So, where are they the evil." Alex had taken this time to motion toward the sudden emptiness.... The rather oddity that the clouds had cleared up, as if the whole Magician show had ended... Sometime during their visit in the clinic. "Not a cloud in sight." He commented small hints upset at how Quests seeemed to be broken in this game.... Not game.
ooc: We should probably end the thread soon, we can't ask staff to just make October Event monsters to summon.
"I guess you don't have any spares.... So, where are the the evil."
"Well, we got to look for them sadly." A nervous laugh from the armored knight. "You can call me Ringo for now. Come on, let's get you a grief seed or two." The knight bowed politely and began to march on back to where the skeletons were. Hopefully they provided enough to clean his gem up. Still...why did Alex's start off so dirty?
Things he can ask the one who blessed him with this power later.

"Nice meeting you Ringo, Alex.." He replied his name, nodded with a taste of uncertainty as Ringo offered the Grief seeds. Followed him to clean the gem.. Only to learn, its a bit harder when your gem still in your chest.
The End.
