"Y'know, for a brave, heroic Jarl? You certainly lead your men out there, as they died against those damned zombies."
[i]Arianna interrupted the Jarl sarcastically, even in an almost hateful tone. Her hands were balled into fists, her tone laced with venomous intention.[/i]
"Hiding away in your precious castle, as the true heroes sacrificed their souls for [i]you[/i]. While [i]we[/i] - foreigners - took action against them. Something that...what, you haven't done in months? Instead of taking on this menace, you've seemed to hope on hiding away, cutting their infinite numbers down in an endless cycle of death?
So if you don't mind, treat my friend here with respect. Because I'll bet money that he's just as good as a leader than you'll ever be."

"Long story short, I ain't bowing for shit." Alex finished. Falk looked at both of them with a clear "what are you doing?!" look as the Jarls face scrunched up into a pout. But soon his small pouty mouth turned into a large grin and he bellowed in laughter. "HAHAHA." He let out as he stood up. It looked like it required quite a bit of effort on his part. "GIRL you should try to be three hundred pounds heavier!" He continued to laugh. "Ah. Finally a bunch of strangers with a pair of cocks between there legs. You know how many fu[i]c[/i]king suck ups walk through my door? Like these two here?" He asked as he gestured to the two guards. "Too many?" Falk asked. "TOO. GOD DAMN. MANY! IT PISSES ME OFF LIKE YA WOULDN'T BELIEVE!"
-
[i]Arianna didn't respond, although she blushed at the comment that he had made about her weight (Arianna only weighed about one-hundred and fifty pounds, which was quite light for someone who was 6'3). She shrugged it off, nodding with the Jarl as she motioned for Alex to speak. She...wasn't the best with words.[/i]
-
"I get it! Kiss asses are the WORST." Alex agreed. "Like, don't get me wrong, they have their uses, but they are some of the BIGGEST liars out there." "Ah! You're right ya white haired -blam!-! How can I trust people who lie about liking me every day? Have some damn backbone and tell someone what ya really feel for gods sake!" "Your fat and incredibly stinky." One of the guards interrupted. The Jarl turned to his right to look at the guard. Then, he turned to the other guard. "Gerald," he started. "Kill Egor please." Egor looked in fear at the much larger Gerald who took his light machine gun off his back and aimed it at Egor. "HA! IM KIDDING FOR FU[i]C[/i]KS SAKE!" Haakon declared. "Put the damn gun down Gerald before ya shoot your damn foot!" Falk awkwardly laughed at this sadistic joke. While alex raised a high eyebrow and chuckled. "Now that's power if I've ever seen it." Falk said. "Damn right it's-WHY THE FU[i]C[/i]K IS YOUR SKIN BLUE?!" The Jarl trailed off as he looked at Falk. "Oh. Former king of an alternate purgatory realm. Don't mind it." Falk answered simply. This oddly enough replaced the large Jarl. "Huh. Got it". Haakon said with a hint of suspicion. "So," Alex began. "Guess I have to introduce myself yet, right? Alex Coldbourne, head of Infinite Corp. This man beside me is Falk, and the tall lady here is Arianna." Falk saluted casually upon his name being called.
-
[i]Arianna only sarcastically curtsied, smirking as she rose up to her full height.[/i] "Alex, you know that I'm not the chatting type. Get to the point." [i]The clone of Irina didn't exactly want to speak to the Jarl, due to the fact that she didn't view herself as important, or knowledgeable, to the situation at hand. [/i]
-
"Ya, ya cool your jets." Alex said to her. "So, Haakon, I wanna secure an alliance with you." "An alliance? For what?!" "I need more men. Right now I'm In the tens of thousands, but you have some of the most dangerous bastards known on Tatakai. I want some men, and I'm willing to pay." "You sound like ya want some prostitutes for christs sake!" Haakon bellowed. "What? Are your men willing to take care of that department as well?" Alex asked the Jarl jokingly. "HA! Maybe with Egor here!" Haakon gestured to the guard. "That being said, I don't want money. I want your own resources when the time comes. I got two other Jarls who want my fat ass on a platter!" "Why would anyone want that?!" Falk asked with a smile. The Jarl bellowed at the comment and wagged his finger. "You are all smartasses you know that?" Haakon commented. "Fact is, I'm a target. And I live in a nation that only wants new weapons, nothing else related to technology." "What are you getting at Haakon?" Alex asked him. "I want you to help me invade the other islands and take them over!" Haakon declared. It hardly took alex a moment before he answered. "Out of the question." "What?!" "You heard me. My company believes in freedom Haakon. And justice. I won't help you invade other islands so they can be plummeted into a war of greed."
-
"Why not take care of the zombie threat firsthand?" [i]Arianna mentioned, sighing after a moment.[/i] "I mean - all three of us saw what was going on down there. And soon, those two nations won't want your fatass on a plate, because said fatass will be overrun and eaten by the undead. There's no way that you guys can handle that horde forever, and...well, I'm sure that Alex would be find with assisting Ragnarok in the extermination and eventual ridding of these zombies."
-
"Tell ya what." The Jarl started. "If you can figure out a way to stop the creation of these beasts, be my guest." "Creation? What makes you think they're being created?" Falk asked him. "Because, just a few weeks ago a sorcerer turned up stating he could figure out how to find spies in my city. In exchange I gave him safe haven. Soon after...well...the first attack happened. We lost dozens of good men since then. And the damn sorcerer couldn't be found. We searched his place, but we couldn't find a whiff of him." "So you don't have any leads?" Falk asked. "Not a damn one." The Jarl answered. "Okay. Well it seems like we're at a bit of an impasse then don't you think?" Alex asked Haakon. "No shit we are at an impasse! But I'll tell you what. If you want to secure this alliance? It's fine by me. I think we should negotiate a trade or something." "Trade? What do you mean?" "I mean, you establish a small base here so you can give some of your men and their fancy flying machines to me to defend ragnarok! In return, I'll give you some of the finest foot soldiers free of charge!"
-
"...I think that's a pretty good deal. Y'know, we should come around when the next attack from the zombies occurs, so we can see if said sorcerer finally reveals himself. Sound like a plan?" [i]Arianna looked between the three men, hiding away an inspired look. She stood between kings, rulers...leaders. She wondered if she would ever match their greatness - perhaps she would.[/i]
-
Alex thought for a moment before he gave his answer. "Ya, Haakon. Sounds good to me. Plus, I'm sure some of the boys could learn a thing or two from your men!" "Like how ta properly fu-" "OKAY GREAT WE HAVE A DEAL?!" Falk interrupted. Haakon chuckled at the sudden interruption. "Damn right we have a deal!" The Jarl agreed. Him and Alex shook hands, but the white haired man's hand was buried in the massive Jarls hand. After releasing the Jarl bellowed again. "OHOHO! You three haven't even been apart of a good o'l Ragnarok party! I must throw one in celebration! They're will be drinks, dancing, FOOD, and whores! Haha!" "Ha! As fantastic as that sounds, I got to get this girl back to her mother." Alex gestured to Irina jokingly. "Wha? Invite her mum over here then! I'd love to get acquainted! Ha!" "Trust me Haakon, if you knew her your opinion might change!" Alex declared.
-
((Mfw a Jarl asks to get acquainted with Arianna's mom https://m.imgur.com/0Zc7f4d?r "Jarl, if I didn't know better - you must have a thing for married psychopathic murderers who would rather slaughter your kin instead of looking at you. Am I...correct?" [i]Arianna joked, although she shrugged afterwards.[/i] "I think I'll skip the party, to be honest...Not exactly in the mood to end up pregnant."
-
"Hmph! Suit yourselves then! I'll be here then! Drinking alone! With Egor and Gerald!" Haakon said as he sat back down on his throne. "Will we actually be able to drink Jarl?" Gerald asked. "HA! OF COURSE NOT! IM DRINKING ALONE AND YOU TWO HAVE TO CLEAN UP THE MESS! HAHA!" The Jarl bellowed again. Alex chuckled at the extroverted man. "Thanks Haakon. Make sure to not drink yourself to death though eh? I want those soldiers!" "Oh haha Fu[i]c[/i]k off Alex!" The Jarl said. He dismissed the three, and the group exited the throne room. "Well. That went surprisingly well!" Falk said. "Damn right it did. I don't settle for mediocre Falk." "Clearly. I'm just wondering about that sorcerer now. You don't think it was-" "No. No I don't think it was Tywinn." Alex interrupted. "He's good with the sorcery for sure. But necromancy was never his department."
-
"-To be quite frank, I wouldn't be too sad if he died from alcohol poisoning. Er...then again, the other kingdoms don't sound too grand, so...guess he'll have to stay alive." [i]Arianna joked, although her attention was then drawn to the mention of the sorcerer.[/i] "Can one of you give me an idea of this Tywinn? I mean, Isaac's probably stalked him to hell and back, he's...weird like that. I don't mean literally stalk, but.. Never mind that. Just tell me, please."
-
"I doubt your brother has stalked him at all. If he did, you probably wouldn't see him again." Falk said. "Tywinn is a powerful warrior. He's good with all forms of destruction magic. We're talking fire, ice, electricity you name it. He's also a strong defensive spell caster, probably the best. That being said he's also good with a sword. Probably better then any of us. ...and he's also my father." Alex clarified.
-
"Mm...so strong offense, spectacular defense, and one of the best swordsmen alive...and your father." [i]Arianna sighed - and that's when her inner Irina went loose. Well, she didn't go killing everything, but...[/i] "Where does he draw his magic from? What are his limits? Is he immune to blood manipulation? Will Isaac have to supply everyone with shielding just to stand a chance? And will I have to use Alex as bait to piss him off- U-Um..sorry," [i]As she realized what she had just said (in about five or six seconds total, too), Arianna blushed red and went silent.[/i]
-
Alex, to her surprise, answered however. "No idea. Himself or hell. Doesn't have a limit besides dying. Probably. Don't even know if the shielding will work against his attacks. And if it means catching him, hell yes. But it probably won't work, considering he was smart enough to come back from the dead."
-
"...I'm going to hope that you're on good terms with your father? Because the capture bit may be our best chance, if he's an actual suspect in this...I don't see him as the type to not blast us all away immediately." [i]Arianna sighed, as Alex's father oddly reminded her of Irina. Except Irina was a psychopath and didn't have magic, but she did relate to Tywinn in the melee category. Speed? She didn't know, as Irina was one of the fastest combatants she knew.[/i]
-
"Welllllll...." alex trailed. Then, Falk interrupted. "Arianna. You heard of the Fierce Deity right?" He asked her.
-
"The Fierce Deity? ...Explain, please. I've heard the name, at least.." [i]Arianna waited for an explanation, as otherwise...she only knew that the Deity had something to do with a mask.[/i]
-
[spoiler]not a mask. Might wanna edit that out.[/spoiler] [spoiler]I dig your spunk though[/spoiler] "Well. Eight thousand years ago, the Fierce Deity killed the dragon known as Majora. He was granted any wish, and that wish was for power. With that, he killed Tywinn Coldbourne, the king of the Ko-Rudo empire. He ran the empire, but eventually he was deceived by a sorcerer from Twilight, my realm, known as Ralphus. And his being was trapped inside his Blade for eight thousand years. Last year, he came back. And, he became pretty good friends with Zane as well..." "Stop playing with the girl for crying out loud Falk." Alex started as he turned to Arianna. "I am, or was, the Fierce Deity. Guess killing a dragon and saving the world doesn't get you much rep."
-
[spoiler][url=http://zelda.wikia.com/wiki/Fierce_Deity]B-But... ;-;[/url][/spoiler] "That's...an interesting story. So not even a wish could kill off Tywinn...but how? What loophole did he find to return from death itself? Perhaps he's using the same method to revive these...zombies," [i]Arianna guessed. Both men could see that she was confused, and...well, she needed some assistance.[/i]
-
[spoiler]I didn't copy it word for word silly doof.[/spoiler] "Ugh. Okay, Ari. Let me start this again, since Falk decided to climactically screw with your head instead of telling the whole story." "Hey, don't judge my story telling!" "Falk! Shut up! I'm starting! Jesus we should find a place to sit but fu[i]c[/i]k it we're starting! *AHEM!*" alex cleared his throat. "SO! I'm gunna rush through this. I'm Alex Coldbourne, a prince of the Coldbourne family that ran the Ko-Rudo mountains 8000 years ago, when I was born. I was the second youngest of six children. We had Felix, the oldest. Diana, my older sister. Fwaelyn, an older brother. Cain, another older brother, then Lilly my little sister. See, Tywinn was a cock. And a total prick. That sort of developed in all of his kids, except Lilly and Cain. I protected Lilly, right? But that fu[i]c[/i]king prick decided to hit her one day. I tried to kill him right then and there, but the bastard threw me around like a rag doll. So with out any options, I found Majora and killed him. Don't ask me how, that's a story for another day. I became all powerful, and killed my father. Okay, THEN this is where things got confusing. I was like, "fu[i]c[/i]k my brother Felix, I wanna rule the world." So I totally kicked his ass into giving me the throne. Then, I got all of my siblings to align themselves with me, and together we became the Fierce Deity, with me as it's figure head." "The Deity isn't a single figure like historical records suggest." Falk started. "In fact, Alex's siblings made up the Fierce Deity, and he just became known as the fierce Deity. History is weird that way." "Okay great Falk no one cares. NOW. After taking over the world, in a much more villainous way that I'm not going back to, my siblings didn't make it. I'm not gunna cry about it or go into detail about it. But they died. At least to my knowledge, because Felix abandoned us. NOW FASTFORWARD to the present where I'm running a whole different kind of operation to help Tatakai rather then take it over! Makes sense?"
-
[i]Arianna was silent for quite a moment, thinking of how she should've replied while also taking in all of the information that Alex had told her. Not only did it somewhat disturb her the backstory of his father, it also came to thought that Alex was...well, hiding something, underneath those layers of sarcasm and apparent comedy. Arianna didn't dwell on it long, as she didn't want to accidentally anger Alex.[/i] "I suppose that I do understand, Alex...and Falk, too. Thank you both for...well, clarifying the backstory of "the Fierce Deity", whatever the being is. At any rate... Are we positive that Tywinn is responsible for these zombies? And even then, why would he attack Ragnarok... ...Maybe he's attempting to get the other two islands to assault Ragnarok, too. Now that I think about it.. We should discuss this in a much better location. C'mon." [i]Arianna almost shook a little, as realization came to her: what if the zombie attacks was merely fueling the other two islands to assault the larger kingdom and take over? It still didn't answer her other questions, but it was a start: the clone turned to walk down the road exiting the castle, hoping that Alex and Falk would follow her.[/i]
-
The two men walked after her and continued their conversation. "No. Like I said, Tywinn didn't dabble in necromancy." Alex stated. "But you might be onto something with the islands being put against each other." "It makes sense." Falk added. "A full scale war? It could be a power grab."
-
"Well, let's look at the facts... We know that a sorcerer visited Ragnarok before the attacks occurred, claiming to find spies. It's possible that whoever it was then moved to a separate island and then issued out the attack. I ought to try doing some recon on the other two islands, see what I can learn.." [i]Arianna mentioned, still walking.[/i]
-
"It's not a bad idea. But right now we need to get back the the castle and figure things out." Alex said.
