??? POV
I heard something from the other side of the door. Someone sounded surprised to hear someone else was awake. Are they talking about me? I stood up and the door opened to reveal something yellow wi-
Pony.
A pony with pink hair and tail. How do I know that? How do I know what she is?
"Oh my gosh! Are you alright?? What were you doing out in the Everfree?? We found you unconscious! Where are-" She kept going on and on.
"Where am I? Who are you- gah!" I said as I clutched my head.
"Hold on, I'll get Twilight! Just stay here for now, okay?!" She left before I could say anything. Maybe I should do as she said? But what if she doesn't come back?
(15 minutes later)
She still isn't back yet. Is she coming back?
*door opening and closing*
Is that her? Why did she take so long?
"The foxes found him in the Everfree several hours ago and brought him here. I was going to tell you as soon as I put him in the guest bed room, but he woke up as I was about to leave." I think it's her voice.
"Don't worry about that, Fluttershy. You did the right thing, tending to him first before coming to me or a doctor. Now let's see what we're dealing with here." Another voice said as I heard them coming up when I'm assuming to be stairs. They came through the door and the yellow one looked at me with a strange look on her face.
"Were you standing there this whole time?" She asked.
"You told me to wait here, so I did." I answered.
"Ooookaaayy, moving on." The light purple one spoke up. "What's your name? Why were you in the Everfree?" She asked. "Oh! I'm sorry, my name is Twilight Sparkle!" She held her hand out to me, her eye twitching.
"My name? Everfree?" Was my response.
"D-do you not even know you're own name?" Twilight asked another question.
"Do I need one?" I asked.
"Oh dear." Fluttershy said with a hand over her mouth, ears folded back.
"Alright, I don't think we'll be getting anywhere like this. Fluttershy, can I talk to you outside for a moment?" Twilight asked her.
"Oh, okay." They left me alone and closed the door.
(Outside Fluttershy's cottage)
Twilight POV
"Are you sure this is wise? You remember Cassiel, I'm sure?" Another human can't be good.
"Twilight, he doesn't even remember his own name. Neither of us know anything about him aside from where he was found and what he is. We couldn't just leave him out there." She explained.
"The last time a human came here, he killed a pony, and coincidentally since that day, these 'Heartless' have been appearing. Those things have also been attacking ponies so often that the guard has more than doubled in size and there are guards with enchanted weapons everywhere. I'm sorry, but we can't trust him! We have no reason to believe he's not like that murderer!" Sometimes, just sometimes, it's better to walk away.
"And we have no reason to believe he's not the opposite. He should've let the guard and the princesses handle Spoiled, but she intentionally put her own daughter in a position to be killed by the very same monsters he risked his life to protect us from! Was she really any better? I don't think just any murderer would nearly get themselves killed to protect a town." Why, Fluttershy?
"I'm sorry, but after Cassiel, I can't ignore this. Monsters born from Darkness came just days after Cassiel arrived, I'm not risking something similar just because of somepony claiming to have amnesia! He can't be trusted and needs to be thrown in the dungeon or Tartarus before something worse happens." I tried to reason with her, but she wouldn't have it.
"I'm not letting you do this, Twilight! This human has done nothing wrong and you're not doing anything to him unless you can prove otherwise! You're better than punishing a pony for no justifiable reason!" Why is she arguing with me?!
"It's not a matter of what he's done! It's a matter of what he's almost certainly going to do! I'm not risking an even bigger Heartless attack over something like this!"
"The only pony risking a Heartless attack here is you. You're not getting him and-" She was cut off by a loud scream inside and what sounded like something being knocked over or falling down.
??? POV
(moments before)
They left me alone again to talk outside, I wonder what they're talking about? Do neither of them know me? They didn't answer my questions, probably not. I moved near the window to try and hear what they were saying, but could only make out a few words. "Heartless", "murderer", and that was it.
"Are they talking about me?" I thought to myself.
*high pitched meow*
I looked down and a black-
"Kitten".
A black kitten with yellow eyes was looking up at me. It brushed itself against my leg for a moment before trying to climb up my pants. I reached down and it fell, but quickly stood back up on it's hind legs and reached out for my hand, brushing it's head against it and meowing again. As I was about to pick it up, my vision flashed something too fast for me to register what I saw and I clutched my head in pain as I fell to the floor, screaming. I don't know how long I was rolling on the floor, I know I saw Twilight and Fluttershy rush in here before my vision became dark. I heard a voice before I lost consciousness though.
"I love you."
Who was it I heard?
??? POV
(The Heart that Was)
I see nothing but darkness beyond this platform I'm on. I can only see me on it, everything else looks so blurred or smashed together that I can't make out what it's supposed to be.
Darkness is the Heart's True Essence.
Cast aside your Weakness so you may never know defeat.
Do unto others as they would unto you, for there is no greater Justice than Revenge.
Send their Souls screaming into the Abyss.
Show them Nightmares Unending.
The Darkness draws ever closer, but fear not. In Light, there is only Weakness. In Darkness, there is only Truth.
A voice keeps speaking as a large black mass formed a sword in the shape of a wing to my left, I don't know why, but I don't trust it.
My Light and my Darkness are mine and mine alone.
That's not a Darkness I'm willing to let you see.
If the Light is true, it will burn away the Darkness, the pain, the hate, and rage.
Yours is one of few Lights that I hope will never fade. It is a truly precious thing.
I will take that Darkness into myself.
I will make this Curse my own.
That voice sounded like me, light and darkness formed a staff in front of me.
You are one of the very few people I care about.
There's nothing I wouldn't do for them.
You made the mistake of hurting the people I love, that is not something I can forgive.
I no longer want to die, I have something worth living for, a future to look forward to.
This is not my grave, and it sure as Hell won't be yours.
If Light truly can't exist without Darkness, then Light will never die, only flicker and dim. I will rekindle it.
Light and darkness formed a shield to my right.
The Path to Power.
The Path of Wisdom.
The Path of Life.
Choose one to keep, and one to discard.
I don't know why, but I don't trust that sword. Do I really need power anyway? I can't think of a reason to choose it over life, so I grabbed the shield.
The shield? Life? Very well. Now choose what to discard.
Though wouldn't life not survive without power? I suppose all three can achieve the same results, whatever they may be. I grabbed the staff.
The staff? You choose to keep Power and Life? Very well. Awaken, and seek to become whole again.
Welcome back though I cant blame your for being distracted by destiny new expansion is really fun as for a new weapon ether a duel blade or the bow blade form bloodborne
1.
Well I actually started playing too recently ,because I found out that It was for free for some time.
Imagine this ,I left pc overnight to download the game , from the morning I played for a couple of hours and the next day I wanted to start one of the free campaigns ,The Red War
Imagine my surprise when the next morning the game updates and downloads almost it's own size because they delete old content to make the game smaller.
I also didn't want to buy any DLC but after somewhat 3-4 days I caved in and bought Beyond Light XD
2.
While on the topic of Destiny 2 ,why not some exotic hand cannon, that screams darkness?
Or even better, 2 ice scythes, Silence and Squall?
i.ytimg.com/vi/VaLCsSO1Aqo/maxresdefault.jpg

I hope Cassiel will return to himself soon and maybe end up as the guardian of darkness and help out Exo Stranger(Elisabeth Bray) in her quest
Also ,while on the topic of different worlds
Did you ever watch Puella Magi Madoka Magica?
I'm not saying that Cassiel should fight Kyubey and see him as evil ,because he too has sometimes cold , logical thinking like him and will see his reasoning and point of view.
Kyubey doesn't do anything out of malice or enjoyment of others pain but out of necessity, to save their whole universe
And again Cassiel will probably see the fault on magical girls side,who could have asked for anything ,who don't blame themselves but someone else for their stupidity

A lot of people were NOT happy about content, especially content they paid for before it became F2P being thrown in what Bungie calls the content vault. It also doesn't help they intend to bring back more content from the first game like the Cosmodrome, more strikes, and most likely Venus since they intend to bring back the Vault of Glass raid.
They're removing content to recycle old content, it's nice being able to go back to these places and tear shit up, but personally, I don't like the idea of having to complete an entire RECYCLED raid for gear that I already grinded in the first game (especially considering how much is obsolete/ shit by D2 standards), especially when one of those weapons was nerfed into oblivion and the other has longer ranged, more stable copies in D2 game.
I was actually thinking about having him use things from Destiny, I'm thinking Thorn and Lumina with Hunter Stasis, just with the ability to change the elements of those abilities. I'll see what others say first.
10576676
What about Crimson?
I Just got it from exotic engram
Crimson fires in three-round bursts, and regenerates health for the user after a kill,a precision kill refills the magazine.
Masterwork grants it+30 range, making it in total 100.
By the way,do you know an easy way to find the new items from Eververse engram if it's opened in a bad moment?
Somewhat 30 minutes ago,when the strike was ending I started opening one in the store tab but before it opened I was send the orbit and I don't know what I got or even if I got anything XD
10576705
Not really a fan of Crimson. As for the engram, check to see if you still have it. If not, you likely got a shader or vehicle.
10576801
I think I just got an emblem from it and some shader
So now are you going to be more frequent with these releases on this story, or are you going to be doing the same thing you did last time, updating the others first then this one. I'd prefer if you focused on this one, but that's just my personal opinion. Also great chapter, keep up the great work!
I love your stores but it takes you so long
10576846
Less so with this one since most of the work is already done by someone else. But yeah, I know it takes me a while otherwise. Too many distractions in most cases.
10576837
I'll be more frequent with this one at least until the next arc is done, whichever world that will be.
Why not a scythe made of obsidian with a fist sized pearl at the opposite end. It evokes a dark form while also reminding there is always a light in the dark.
10577153
I like it, it's on the list!
nice work
10576636
Didn't notice you added to this comment, but I'll address what was added. He won't have anything to do with Destiny beyond if I give him his own version of Revenant, and I haven't seen Puella Magi Madoka Magica. If it's the show I'm thinking of from Watchmojo videos, Kyubey is the demon (idfk animal) thing that ultimately screws everyone over after they're turned magical, right?
10577384
Kyubey is the one trying to save the universe ,because It's energy is depleting ,or something like that
So in order to generate it back ,he uses a certain process
A girl makes a wish and turns into magical girl,and depending on the impact,size of the wish depends how powerful she will get(in general,but not always )
But it also means how much energy she will have to give back to the Kyueby, then to the universe after becoming a witch.But that happens when another magical girl brings him that witch's grief seed,full of despair energy
There is a cost of energy when making a wish, then return with a profit of it to save the world.
He is 100 % logic , and he doesn't do that out of malice
He also doesn't lie
Most of the time if girls just asked him right questions he would have told them about everything ,like witches ,etc
He seems evil only because it happens to human girls ,if it happened to alien girls,no one would be that angry at him
"Why didn't you tell us?"
"You didn't ask."
That's it. That's the show.
His goal explained in the wiki:
Kyubey states that his reason for creating Witches is to collect the emotional energy of the girls. His race would then use this energy to stave off the destruction of the universe by entropy. As such, Kyubey can be seen as a "necessary evil" of sorts. His own race is incapable of feeling emotions, and as such sees humans as nothing more than convenient "energy producers". He himself does not see his own acts as "evil" in any way.
I see that reference!
Also, if your looking for weapons, I find it comical that one of the many weapons I suppose this Cass could use (Caxxiel??? Since All nobodies and there mother have a X) a weapon from a tank class in any given game. My most favored one is from FFXIV, since Cass tied with the darkness so well, and considering all hearts come from darkness, I suppose he could either become a psuedo-dark knight wielding the giant greatsword or if you want it to tie more into the shield of life and sword of power decision, you could always make him a paladin, it would certainly throw everyone off that it IS Cass consideirng from what they remember he never fought using weapons that could defend, and it could also be very funny if this one eventually finds his way back into Shield Hero's world and throws a giant wrench in Naofumi's thoughts. Either way, it's good to see you back in action, and I can't wait to see what happens next.
We are not your friend. We are not your enemy. We are your... S̶̬̍̓͊a̶͙̱̼͝l̴͈͘v̷͇̮̮̕â̷̖̲͋̔ͅt̴̢͈̥̾̈͝ĭ̶̻̍̿ö̷͇͕̰́̎n̷̺̿
Also, if I may, what platform do you play on good sir? Kind of funny you've never mentioned it.
Yes it back me happy Holi so happy
10577669
Xbox. I guess I could see a greatsword or sword and shield, but in regards to defense, he already had two very good defense spells (Barrier and Reflect/a/ga). He didn't use them too often, but that's because he always had a way around or a way to break through their defenses, or was good at not getting hit by the things you don't want to get hit by.
10577855
So does Cass look different and have different abilities? To my understanding whenever a person becomes a nobody, they usually don't manifest the same way as there whole self (i.e. Roxas capable of utilizing two keyblades, but not have access into different forms like Sora) , so is that something that has been thought about at all? Perhaps these questions of mine will be answerd soon and all I require is to simply wait, I can not wait to see what is in store, Oh Writer Mine.
10577166
Senpai noticed me.
10578105
In the case of Ansem and Xemnas, that's a tough one considering they are technically the Heartless and Nobody of two completely different people, same goes for Roxas since he's technically the Nobody of two different people as well. Also, Roxas being able to dual wield is probably less about him being a Nobody and more on who he's the Nobody of and the whole situation with Xion. Xigbar is another tough one considering either he already had time travel or he kept possessing other people like how Xehanort did to Terra. Who's he the Nobody of, and is he still a Nobody after KH3?
All of them had one thing or another change. Mostly weapons like how Aeleus/ Lexaeus switched from an axe to a giant "axe-sword" or Larumia/ Marluxia and Larxene switched from a keyblade to a scythe and kunai. Or how Even/ Vexen and Ienzo/ Zexion went from unarmed scientists to a shield and a book. Appearance-wise, the most notable changes are Namine and Xemnas, otherwise, everyone looks like they just got a new weapon. I think Cassiel would be the same with the only other difference being he still has a silver eye.
10578105
Actually, one thing just came to mind now that I think about it again. Since Summer either A. Gave Cassiel a silver eye like how Obito loaned Kakashi both Sharingan eyes after he died or B. A piece of her heart is in Cassiel's, I don't think I specified which one, who's here right now could be considered Summer's Nobody as well. It wouldn't be out of the reasonable realm of possibility for Cassiel's Nobody to have another feature like her hair color.
