When Bastion reached the top of the first floor, the Voice boomed into his head once more. He listened, very carefully, and tried to answer. He tried with all of his might - why was the Voice trying to communicate, if it wasn't going to give him the chance to answer?! All it wanted was a True King. Wasn't that facade of Meng enough? He could have it, if he wanted. All Bastion wanted was life.
They both wanted unreachable things.

Name: Bastion Leto Rank Ability : Pawn Character kingdom: Gold Character's Miasma Colour: Gold Character description: Bastion is a black skinned, well groomed man wearing very well to do robes that don't really match his attitude or demeanor. Black hair, slicked back, is freshly washed, and he looks completely and absolutely empty inside.
"All I ever wanted was to find the True King, and get, the others still stand in my way. I have given them no harm, no trouble, I have waited this long, and my prize is to be betrayed by everything I embrace, again....."
Jerry wobbled as he reached the doorway to move onward, his expression furrowing. Find the one true king, he'd heard that over and over- whatever it was that was going on had nothing to do with them. His mind felt sluggish and exhausted, but he knew it didn't matter. He had to find the others. He glanced to Roar, if only to gauge the other man's reaction, but the Howler turned Human could only roll his eyes. Whoever this Voice was, the King issue was THEIR problem, not the Hunter's.
He pressed forward. [Exit]

As she reached the top, things stayed silent for half a moment. Then the voice spoke again.
"I'm sorry," again, the words were reflex. She couldn't hear them, but still, she said them. She didn't know what the Voice wanted. And she still didn't know what it was talking about. It was odd. She didn't know what to say.
So, she simply pressed on. Forward, onwards. She wasn't going to give up.

The sound of the voice, all booming and disappointed, like an unhappy adult, only served to spur her own. She was getting close to the top, she was sure of that. At least, jackdamn she hoped she was. Otherwise that would be vastly annoying...

Finally! The top! With a fist pump the faerie cleared the top and didn't even bother to slow down, or cast any additional curses toward The Voice. It had no place to talk about betrayal, it knew nothing of betrayal.

At last he reached the top, and once again, heard the agitated voice.
"All I ever wanted was to find the True King, and get, the others still stand in my way. I have given them no harm, no trouble, I have waited this long, and my prize is to be betrayed by everything I embrace, again."
If anything, it seemed to have the attitude of a child denied his toy. A spoiled brat. He didn't care anymore. All this fighting, who the king was, he just wanted to wake up from the endless dream.

Imryn frowned upon hearing The Voice lash out verbally against her, wondering just what they hoped to do at this point. There was no going back now and there had never been a purpose. Unless it's idea of having a purpose was to kill one another for its amusement. In which case she would happy opt out of that every time.

A bit on the short side with some ink stains on her hands.
As Sun entered entered the Tower, the sign drew her up short, but only for a moment. The others had gone ahead, and she need to catch up!
As soon as she passed the doorway, silence slammed down around her. Complete and absolute. She cried out, and felt her voice cords vibrate, but no sound reached her ears.
Sun gritted her teeth and ran up the stairs.

SigrĂșn entered the first floor of the tower, as usually she stopped quickly to scan the surroundings before she slowly began to climb the stairs. She turned to say something to Moriko but found she couldn't hear what she said. It was as if the tower vacuumed all the noise out of the floor.

As Sun ran soundlessly up the stairs, she found the optimism to be happy that at least these stairs weren't crumbling around her.

Moriko followed Sigrun up the stairs numbly. As she began to take her first few steps she quickly realized that she could no longer hear anything. It was an odd sensation but she quickly got used to it.

Her legs started to burn, but Sun grimly refused to give up. Her answers were at the top, and she would have them!
She started when the Voice spoke to her, but continued climbing. She had no answer for it. Her voice was gone! It could not expect one from her. Why talk to her at all?

Momo wished that she could talk to Sigrun, but she had to admit that the silence was kind of... nice. Up until now her whole world had been spinning around her in a raging turmoil. Having a few minutes of peaceful quiet was something of a gift.
