  1. The Aspiring Archivist
    "Would you like to say goodbye?" Lerac's voice had grown intense. "I will be taking him, unless you truly have something equivalent to offer, or a reasonable alternative."
  2. The Aspiring Archivist
    "It's not up to me. This is the better option, of the two, anyway. Is that a yes or no?"
  3. The Aspiring Archivist
    "Not that I know of." He gestured at TAAron, expression still empty, but a bit of pain behind his eyes. "Want to say goodbye?"
  4. The Aspiring Archivist
    "Currently, a solution to an angry god's soul causing problems in the underworld." He pointed the dagger at TAAron. "That's the solution."
  5. The Aspiring Archivist
    "He has no need for another servant."
  6. The Aspiring Archivist
    "Very little, I imagine. If anything at all."
  7. The Aspiring Archivist
    "If you had something to offer Death in exchange for the immense amount of trouble he has caused and will cause, I suppose that would do it."
  8. The Aspiring Archivist
    "What kind of deal?" Any and all emotion has been drained from his voice, so absolutely that it may have made Rue envious.
  9. The Aspiring Archivist
    "I cannot stop you from trying, but I assure you that you will fail. And I will still be taking him now. Mortal souls degrade rather rapidly in the underworld, so your efforts will be pointless." He brought the dagger to TAAron's chest.
  10. The Aspiring Archivist
    "You gave no access to the underworld, no ability with which to destroy their souls, and, most importantly, Death would not allow it. Annihilating the souls of two gods for the sake of one mortal is ridiculous and inexcusable."
  11. The Aspiring Archivist
    "My master is among the most powerful gods in the multiverse. So yes. But I can't say I disagree with his reasoning, either."
  12. The Aspiring Archivist
    The air split around the dagger, and it was unaffected. "I've already told you, it's not up to me."
  13. The Aspiring Archivist
    "A threat? Again?" Lerac stepped closer with the knife.
  14. The Aspiring Archivist
    "...No. There is no justification for that. TAAron can be taken, and the situation is resolved without causing destruction that goes against protocol."
  15. The Aspiring Archivist
    "It's not up to either of us." Lerac stepped toward the frozen TAAron, brandishing his odd blade.
  16. The Aspiring Archivist
    "If TAAron is dead, he cannot use his magic, and therefore cannot disrupt the function of the underworld. The only other way would be to destroy the souls of his gods."
  17. The Aspiring Archivist
    "Well, back when he had died, his friends made a deal to revive him. Their end of the bargain... was not entirely held up. It wasn't a major infraction, and unlike many gods, Death is rather lenient. He wouldn't normally recollect TAAron on those grounds. However, he now has a new reason to do so." Lerac paused. "TAAron is the sole holder of what remains of the power of two gods. Those gods' souls now inhabit my master's realm. Recently, TAAron performed some magic that called upon those two gods individually, instead of in balance. When one of them, Malum, was called, he caused some havoc in the underworld. In the interest of its security, Death will enforce his deal."
  18. The Aspiring Archivist
    "Is that a yes or a no to an explanation?"
  19. The Aspiring Archivist
    "This is my work now. It is not up to me. If you would like, I could provide you an explanation."
  20. The Aspiring Archivist
    "You will have to accept it." Rue caught a glimpse of Lerac's face. It was quite young, likely not much older than TAAron. His expression was grim.
  21. The Aspiring Archivist
    TAAron had gone still. Unnaturally so. Lerac addressed Rue. "I'm afraid circumstances have changed. I will have to take TAAron now."
  22. The Aspiring Archivist
    Lerac began to speak softly. It didn't seem to be directed at them. "I'd rather not... Really?"
  23. The Aspiring Archivist
    "I... have no idea. I don't think it's a good idea to try and fight him, though." Lerac looked distracted by something.
  24. The Aspiring Archivist
    "I do not kill indiscriminately. I wouldn't kill you, if you fought me."
  25. The Aspiring Archivist
    "I can tell you that trying to fight me would be... inadvisable."
