	[b]You suddenly feel light headed and see Royal standing over you, not your mother. [/b] "Mortar!"
- 
   
	The -blam!-?
- 
   
	"You've been repeating that. What the hell happened?"
- 
   
	Well you'd probably say the same thing when your dad shows up out of nowhere, then you're a goddamn baby and you're being held by your mom
- 
   
	"What the shit?!" [b]Royal begins laughing [/b]
- 
   
	*Mortar chuckles a little* Hit me again
- 
   
	"Nah nah. You're done. After that?" [b]He keeps laughing [/b]
- 
   
	Eh, just spooked me a little
- 
   
	"You sure?"
- 
   
	Sure I'm sure
- 
   
	"Your choice bud." [b]He pours another glass [/b]
- 
   
	Long live the Old Underworld *He merrily chugs down the shot*
- 
   
	"The Underworld is mine." [b]Your customers begins swirling around [/b]
- 
   
	Eh, bullshit
- 
   
	[b]Your customers seem to be angry with you [/b] [i]"KILL ME ALREADY GORE![/i] [i]"[u]YOU'VE CAUSED THE DOWNFALL! "[/u][/i] [b]"YOU ALONE"[/b] [u]YOU'RE REBELLION."[/u]

	Tell me something I don't know fellas. *He sighs as he wipes his mouth*
- 
   
	"WHY?" [i]"YOU RECEIVED NO HONOR?"[/i]
- 
   
	Gore has no one. I am Mortar, a new, reformed Gore.
- 
   
	"AND YET -" [b]The vision changes to one of Royal Dying. He looks at you, tears in his eyes [/b] "You weren't there."
- 
   
	*Mortar slings Royal over his shoulder* Hey, I was busy dying myself, if you must know
- 
   
	[b]Royal begins coughing, blood splattering the ground in front of him. [/b]
- 
   
	Sorry bud *He holds Royal as if Roy is a young child, resting Roy's head on his arm* Tell me what happened.
- 
   
	"The battle... So much bloodshed." [b]Tears began down his face [/b] "The Dight have fallen. Never to return."
- 
   
	*Mortar sighs* I'm sorry bud. *He looks around for anything that could help Roy. He knows this is the Ascendance speaking, though he still pities Royal*
- 
   
	[b]There is a strange potion on the ground, beckoning you [/b]
