Well, do you care about anyone?

“I’ve existed for less than a day, so I don’t really know anyone well.”

It's quite literally impossible to get into the Maelstrom considering it is a sealed prison realm, sealed by the Gods of Celestia.

Wait… why does the Emperor have to fight it then? 
Rebus waits for the disembodied voice to actually lay out its terms.

Well, that solves that problem.

Template nods. “If you believe not caring about anyone will make my life better, I will endeavor not to do so.”

I think caring about people makes life worth it, actually. You could try making some friends, if you want to.

“I think I should do that, then. First I should figure out what I am, though. Maybe I will make friends through doing that.”

You're a template, I suppose. A basis, meant to become someone else.

because the seal wanes in power. You should read the link about the Emperor that's in my signature.

“I see.” The traveler doesn’t seem convinced.

Hacob stood there, waiting to see if the traveler wanted to continue this conversation.

Template nods. “I believe it took over a hour for it to wear off the last time, and that was with an added variable. But we shall see.” 

Yes, in the meantime, we should test if someone thinking a description of you will have a similar effect.

The Emperor looks around. "Where am I! Why did you bring me here!" He yells over the sound.

There is no answer. An indistinct figure approaches the emperor, running with desperation. "My Emperor! They are too many. What shall we do?"

The traveler doesn't say anything.

Tam poked her in the shoulder.

"You okay?"

She shrugs. "Yeah, I'm fine."

Little does Sain know, he said their name correctly. The Gods of Celestia is just another way to say it.

Well then…

Little did the Stardust Deities know, Sain appeared right next to one.

"No, no, no, no, no, no, no." He says shaking his head in distress looking at his shattered vials and spectacles. His face looks extremely worried. "No.... I." He stutters. "I. I don't want glory. I'm a mercenary and I'm just looking for any uninhabited areas across the planes. I was tasked by the Emperor to go on a colonization expedition and now that my vials are gone.... Now that they're gone. I can't finish my job. I'm royally wanked if I don't get back to him soon." He looks as if he's going to cry.

Please don't just narrate this away, any one who reads this. I want Sylas to be a character with flaws that he has to work through and if he just magics all of his problems away, he can't have any character development.

"Laws are put in place to keep those who do things from doing them. But they also exist for those smart enough to bend them." The voice gives a raspy laugh. "Demon or not, Asher, I can help you...." It stings like a nest of hornets in your head.

The Emperor looks around. "Where am I! Why did you bring me here!" He yells over the sound.

The man sighed. “Another one. Lock him up with the rest of the loons.” 

Three people came forward and took hold of him.

All good!

Yeah, I can. Don't worry. He gave her a brief hug before turning back to Nethek.

So, Nethek, have you been to your father's in the past day or so . . . ?

Well, do you care about anyone?

I haven’t seen him since we left. What… what happened? 

[TwinStorm He/Him]

Cricket sighed, wondering if the Enuller would follow up. How's it been since I've left, Tam? He sent. Have you found Beosta's siblings?

Yeah, that makes sense. 
Rebus began to walk away, trying to snub the obviously evil voice into either leaving him alone or actually giving him information.

Oh! Hey, Cricket . . . um, do you know someone named Fael?

Tam continued poking her.

Not sure. Adventure? Explore? Stuff like that.

Cricket froze. Yeah… I did. Why? Have you seen her? He added hurriedly.

Template looks around. "I can do that, I think. Are there any places that need exploring or adventures that need doing?"
