"It was my idea! Why would I need to convince myself of my own idea?"

"because somewhere inside you, you want to fix it. Stop it. Maybe help everyone."

erryin follows silently again

As they turn the corner around the hallway...

The scene warps, and then shifts.

Describe something

"That was both direction and actual distance. But," he gestures in front of himself, "if we were to assume that this is forward, then we are trying to go..." he spins around and points again, "this way. And if you were to look, you would see in that direction a planet, for which we are trying to go about 12 degrees down from the equator and 40 miles offset to the right from what we would view as the center." 

 

Give me a little bit to think about it. 

"Oh, ok. I understand. Are you willing to pay the price?"

erryins eyes widened and backed up. "No. No."

Rebus stood, nearly expressionless. There truly was nothing else he could do. He would have to kill the last Horror, furthering his goals while eroding - yet again - any last bit of moral high ground. Betrayal was right, it seemed. 
Rebus summoned Antagonist as a halberd and drove the point through Betrayal’s chest, cracking the armor. Rebus’s honor cracked with it, the last portions of humanity within him held together by only a thread. And at that, Rebus smiled. 

Sigh. I hate doing this to Rebus. But, like his own reasons for being evil as far as I can tell, this will make the coolest plot so it all works out

Even as he died, Betrayal smiled too. He had ensured victory for both his Lord, and for himself as well. The world would remember him…

“Remember what I have taught you.”

And so died Betrayal. His body crumpled to the floor and Thunder rumbled.

Rather than dying with him, the storm picked up. A personage made of lightning could be seen in the skies, clad in black storm cloud. He directed a lightning bolt, and it struck the sprite. She greedily drank of the energy and transformed into a key. As the light faded, so too could a fading message be heard.

Remember me 

Axzi spoke

I assume by my ability to speak with you again you defeated Betrayal? My congratulations. Now the true test begins. All that now remains is to open the doors.

Spoiler

The plan begins when the doors open. I’ll pm the final details

"That depends on what you are willing to trade. It need not be quite so dramatic as the trade this one"—he waves at Cep—"made, but you must offer up something of value roughly equal to the trade."

young erryin turned a corner and got jumpscared by a young girl. She had a short ear length black hair and brown eyes. "Boo!" She laughed and erryin laughed picking her up. "Dont do that."

erryin just stared eyes wide and shaking.

"me and my girlfriend.." 

the two continued walking through the tunnels. "I wonder if the legend is true!" Ava said gleefully. 

Erryin rolled their eyes. "Ava I assure you there aint no ancient civilization down here." They sighed. "I wanna go home. This is boring."

Taeidin seems to legitimately consider this for a second. 

"I spent 12 years trying to get it."

Asharak looks at the bone, confused. "Why?"
