The Other Side of the Pink Palace.

You find yourself fighting against vegetable and plant monsters. You and Sif took care of them with ease. Then a new fighter showed. A deformed creature riding around on a mecha mantis.
It’s faster than you expected nearly taking you out before you could cast thundaga.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rk1P6T9zHlY
“LEAVE NOW!” it groans in pain.
“Sorry, not happening.” You take a stance, keyblade at your hip as if you were to draw it from a sheathe.
Flower petals dance in the air from the destroyed tree.

The mecha mantis rears backs and then barrels its way towards you.
Its gears let out a mechanical shriek, its claws digging long scars into the earth.

You close your eyes.
You inhale.
You step forward.

The mantis is a wreck, all its legs are sliced clean off and it writhes in false pain and uselessness.
The deformed man is trapped beneath twisted metal and a pair of gloved hands locking him to the controls.

He looks you in the eyes. He does not have any, just a pair of black buttons.
“Save her.” He whimpers before dissolving into dust.

Save who? You wish you could have asked.
You’re alone in the garden, except for Sif.
You feel watched. You’re tired of being watched.

You make your way towards the house.
Something stirs behind a curtained window.
You think you see the cat you followed on top of the porch overhang.

That cat. It looks at you with smug satisfaction.
No more games.
Sif, you say with your heart, sneak up on him.
Sif melds into the ground.
You walk up to the porch.

“So, why’d you lead me here?” you ask kindly.
The cat struts along the edge of the overhang. You follow.
Sif crawls up a post and onto the overhang.

“I know you know I know about other worlds. You saw the keyblade. So, tell me. What’s going on?”
“Well I thought a Keyblade Master would be able to figure things out on his own.” The cat talks back.
“Was not expecting that.”
“I’m full of surprises.” He – you think it’s a he, he’s got a pretty deep voice – stops and begins to rub his ear. Perfect.
Sif leaps. Both he and the cat tumble down.
You catch both in your arms, Sif wrapping itself around the cat locking his movement.
“GET OFF ME! I’LL CLAW YOUR EYES OUT!”
“You’re not the only one with surprises Mr. Cat.” You scratch behind his ears. You can tell he is trying not to enjoy it.

>Alright what questions you want to ask the Cat?

>>2045933
Ask about what this place is, ask him about other keyblade users passing through.

>>2045933
Ask if he saw the master and where we are

>>2045933
agree with >>2045943
how does he know what a keyblade wielder is

>>2045943

“I’ll put you down, if you answer my questions.”
The cat glares at you before finally nodding its head.
You place the cat on the ground. Sif let’s go of it.
The cat stretches, it looks like it is about to leap away but changes its mind.
It sits poised, tail wrapped around it, despite his haggard appearance.

“Alright I’m all ears.”
“How do you know about the Keyblade?”
“Oh, that old thing? I’ve got nine lives, I’m not going to spend them all on one world.” The cat begins to walk, you follow.
“So, you’ve seen one before. Anyone keyblade wielders passed through this world?”
“Oh yes, just one though.” He walks behind a small flower pot.
He’s gone.
“He came here once when he was young.” The cat reappears behind you, “Much, much younger than you are now. He bit off more than he could chew. Then he came back one day. Not too long ago now that I think about.”
“Great! Where did he go?” you lift the cat up and spin him around earning angry hisses and cat claws too close to your face.
“If you keep that up I won’t tell you.” The cat jumps from your arms. “He did not say. He just relocked the door for this world.” The cat looks at the ground ashamed. “I tried to stop her. The girl found the key for another door. Now she’s in here.”
“Which girl?”
“Coraline. Blue hair. Sassy.”
Oh.
“It’s not that dangerous. I mean the most she has to worry about is some vegetable monsters.” You shrug.
“Didn’t your master leave a note somewhere?”
“Probably. I skim most of his notes anyway.” You shrug it off.
The cat growls. “There is something evil in here, something feeding on the hearts of children. Since your master isn’t here you need to stop it.” It walks behind a tree, reappearing back on the top of the porch. “I’ll lead Coraline out of here. You handle the Bedlam.” He disappears.

Great.

Why do hearts taste so good?
Wait, no.

You enter the house; the door opens with a sufficiently eerie creak.
Coraline’s mother stands in the hallway. Her eyes are buttons.
“Oh, I was just um-“

Her hand shoots at you, all metal and claws. Like scissors and kitchen knives.
You roll out of the way before it can skewer you to the wall.
“It’s been awhile since woman has pinned me to the- oh. Ew.”
Your smile fades. The hips are gone.
A hag stands in her place, metal, skeletal and vaguely spider like.
“I was actually just leaving.” You begin to back your way out.
“Ah, you smell like that little boy. The fly who escaped.” A metal hand traces a finger down your jawline. Blood beads up in its wake.

“He told me that he has a key, a key that could unlock my cell.” Her head leans in close, it smells of rotten food and dust. “I wonder, do you have the same key little boy?”

Her claws dance across your chest.
The grip of Abyss Walker forms in your hand.
You strike out, stabbing at the monster’s face.
It falls short.
Her face remains uncut.
She smiles at you, crooked and filled with fangs.
You feel blood run down your chest.
Her claws digging into you.
Cold and sharp.
Your vision fades.
Everything returns to darkness.

You fall.
It is a familiar sensation. Opening your eyes, you find yourself surrounded by darkness, falling head first deeper into the void.
You are in your heart.
Perhaps that monster did not kill you yet.
Guess you got lucky this time.

There is no pain in your chest where she dug her metallic claws, you’re safe for now.

The descent ends as you find yourself slowing down and your body begins to flip itself right side up.
As your feet touch the dark ground, light explodes from beneath you.
Thousands of doves take form from nothing and take flight.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iqezIu53OUQ

Oh. It is different.
The stain glass platform still bears your sleeping form, this time Abyss Watcher is in your hand and besides you are five purple circles.
Sif, Alyx, and the armor you fought here occupy three of them. The last two are blank.
You call out to Sif, but you feel something. Something blocking your connection to Sif like a wall.

“I’ve had to block your friend from entering here, for the time being at least.” The voice calls out. It’s different this time. It does not echo through your heart and mind but sounds like it is right
“Here?” the voice booms. You turn around, the Armor stands behind you, Keyblade planted in the ground. It seems different. Brighter, more refined and elegant.

“Quinn, my boy, you have done much more than I could have expected. You cannot fall now.”
He walks towards you with long and powerful strides. It almost seems like the platform is shaking.

“What... or who... are you?” Abyss Watcher jumps to your hands.
“Urk.” He pauses. “You mean you don’t know who I am?”
You shake your head.
The armor sighs, he walks over to you dejected. Each step shaking the platform.
“I would have thought Ford would tell you.” He grumbles. “NO MATTER” his voice now booms, “I am here! And I can explain everything!” he gives you a thumbs up. You think you can see teeth sparkle behind his helmet.
You return a halfhearted thumbs up.

You sit cross legged across from the armor. It or I guess he also sits cross legged.
Beside both of you, your keyblades are planted firmly into the glass.

“So. Who are you and what are you doing in my heart?” you ask, voice calm.
“I am.” He looks to his hands, opening and closing them then he looks up to you. “You can call me All Knight! For I am everything that embodies a true Keyblade Knight and hero!”
“Oh. OK. So, what are you doing in my heart then? I don’t remember letting anyone in besides Sif.”
“Of course you don’t. Light and Darkness are eternal, never ending only changing from one vessel to the next. Hearts are similar.” He looks up to the sky.
“When the body dies, be it too weak to continue or from an enemy’s blow, the heart returns to where everything once began. Kingdom Hearts.” He looks towards you. “That’s not always the case. Sometimes, in dire times, Light can be passed on to a suitable vessel.” He trails off.

“So, I’ve got your light?”
“Precisely!”
“So why can’t I use the Light, mister Light Knight?”
“Hmph, that is all you kid!” he gives you another thumbs up. You return it. “When you accepted Darkness you did not just face your own, but all the Darkness from my great and shining light.”
“The brighter the light the darker the shadows.”
“Well put Quinn my boy.” He stands now. “I did not know what you would do with the Darkness. I have seen many go down that path and never resurface. You, however, have tamed it and made it your own. I know now that you are a true Knight.” He holds out his hand to you. “I shall grant you all my light, become a beacon to lead those through the night.”

“Why not, I’ve been stabbed enough times.” You take All Knight’s hand. It is huge and solid muscle. Or maybe it is just metal.
His body glows bright gold, it spreads to you crawling up your arm and all over your body.
It is warm, you can feel your hairs stand on end.

The gold begins to subside.
A black and purple aura erupts from you, swallowing the rest of the gold.
“Well I was not expecting that.” All Knight grumbles. “Try and bring forth your Light.”
You do what you’ve done so many times, always hopping you’d glow gold and impress Ford. You dig down and bring forth your light.
A white aura surrounds you. It is faint and occasionally a purple streak ripples through.
“I did it!”
Sif crawls out of your shadow. It stares at you, puzzled by your glow.
“Congratulations Quinn my boy!” he places a large hand on your shoulder. “I know you were not in the best place when you came to me, but I know you could stop this evil. Now go forth, both of you, and be a hero.”
A light radiates from within All Knight that swallows you and the platform.
“Become the one who can form the bridge.”

>Gained Light Attunement
>Gained Cura
>Gained 1 Heart Point

You awaken to find yourself caught in a strange web, the strands are sharp and jagged and black.
The world is a solid white void.
The monster, the Beldam, stands before you. Her back faces you.
She seems focused on whatever it is in front of you, hopefully not Coraline.
She is missing an arm.
Good riddance.

Your body begins to burn. It does not hurt, but it burns with righteousness and hate.
You glow a soft golden light. The webs begin to burn and curl up away from you.
The Beldam does not notice.
The Beldam does not notice Abyss Watcher appear in your hand.

It lets out a terrible scream as you jam Abyss Watcher through it. It digs at the none existent ground as it tries to escape from you.
You push Abyss Watcher in deeper and twist.
The thing screams louder as it pulls away from you. Its body begins to split in half as your keyblade cuts deeper into it.
You watch in silence.

The thing splits itself in two.
The halves run to the other side of the void.
They begin to stitch itself together again.
It sobs.
“You wanted the key. Here it is.” Your voice flat and cold.

The golden aura intensfies, casting shadows across the white void.
The familiar purple begins to emit from you, melding with the gold.
Your shadow stretches and writhes of its own accord.
The shadows dance around the Beldam.
It flinches as the shadows grow closer, as if they cold spring from the ground and strike at it.

“Mercy. Please.” It grovels.
“No.”

You lift Abyss Watcher.
You bring it down.
You lift it up.
You bring it down.

There is only a ruined pile of fabric, metal, and sawdust when you are done.
From the wreckage a small pink light rises.

The shadows dance again reaching for the pink light.
The shadows are hungry.
You feel watched, but not from without but from within.
All Knight.
You grumble.
This is not like the swordswoman, but what would a knight do?

No you don't know what taking the heart would do in character.

OOC, taking the heart would allow you 1 heart point as well as getting one of her abilities. Or you could give it to Sif who would get slightly stronger and gain some of her abilities/appearance. It would also piss of All Knight.

Leaving it would have you send it off to Kingdom Hearts.

Then I'm voting in-character to give it to Sif. We've seen him get battered by the plants, and we were vocally merciless in our last battle. We wouldn't know better to not do it
>>2049690
I, like the character, had no idea what heart-eating did and i'm sticking to my decision based on that (lack) of knowledge

>>2049704
we are aware of this fact in character:
>>As keyblade wielders it is our job to protect hearts. All of them.

>>2049704
Well in character, even if Quinn doesn't know what'd happen if he takes it, he does know that as a keyblade wielder, it's his job to allow the heart to ascend, and that taking it is bad. It's not like he doesn't know what the hearts are.

I'll leave it up for OP to specify whether "not knowing what it would do" means "Quinn doesn't know what exactly will happen" or "Quinn doesn't know he's not supposed to seize them"

>>2049735
like says >>2049746
It's vague and up for interpretation. I've only played up to KH2, I don't really know the new, elaborate lore and my impression of Quinn was that he would take it. But it seems people disagree and that's fine, its just a different idea for the character

>>2049746
Quinn knows taking it would be letting the Darkness win in some way, and that taking a heart is seen kind of perverse due to Ford's teachings.

More or less he sees it as an evil act, but he would not be sure of the consequences or what happens to the heart itself if it does not return to Kingdom Hearts

>>2049633
>>let it be
Come on guys, we have ONE job.

>>2049755
I have a question. Did you read the previous threads or not?

>>2049755
It actually seems pretty clear cut to me, it's just OP will settle it past any weaselling. If you want to embark on path of corruption, you can say that outright without beating around the bush.

Looks like leaving it wins.

Writing up. Gotta go to work so that will be the last post till I get home.

>>2049766
I did, but we only encountered heart-taking once, and it wasn't super clear what was going on.
>>2049776
No, had i known before the spoilers that it was outright corruption instead of "dark but powerful" i would have voted to leave it.
anyway no point to arguing, clearly outnumbered

>>2049755
No it's not, even if you've played only the first two you know that taking hearts is bad and that the keyblade wielder's duty is to free the hearts. In fact, the games are much more black and white than the quest about it, since it hadn't shown anyone who could control the darkness for long without being devoured by it, unless they converted to light. Quinn is the first as far as we've seen, and that's only because he's been disciplined and doesn't just take what are essentially souls for power ups. Come on man, it's pretty obvious it's a bad thing.

>>2049787
The shadows reach out with phantom hands towards the heart.
No.
You release the golden aura, it washes the white void of shadows.
It is just you and the heart.
You aim Abyss Watcher; a white light wreathes the heart. The heart floats up and out of the void.
Now it is just you. Trapped in the white void.

You’re not sure how long you’ve been walking before you find the keyhole.
You unlock it.
The void fades from existence, you find yourself in the dark.
You take a step.
Ow.
Your face slams into a brick wall.
Light shines upon you. The moon is full and watching you amidst a bed of stars.
The darkness fades as the moon eliminates the world.
You’re in a well.
Well, well, well. Guess it is time to go.

You leap from the well with ease.
A scream pierces the night. You land summoning Abyss Watcher.
“What are you!?” Coraline screams.
“You okay? I heard you scream?”
“Yeah I screamed cause some weirdo freak just jumped out of the well!”
“Well, I would be stuck in that well if I didn’t.” looks like she made it out safe. Not that you were any much help.
“So, you’re okay?” you ask
“Yeah, why wouldn’t I be?” her voice wavers.
“No reason.” Best to let things be.

You and Coraline head back to the Pink Palace in silence, as you approach it Coraline breaks into a sprint yelling for her mom and dad.
You decide to let them be, you’ve had enough of both them.
You catch the mom looking at you.
You force the bile back down your throat and give a wan smile.
You throw yourself on the bed and shut your eyes. You’ve earned it.

Certainly.

Also. We really need to ask Sif how to get stronger in the darkness without eating hearts. They're full of cholesterol. And memories.

It’s two in the afternoon when you wake up and grab your morning coffee.
Strolling into the solar, coffee in one hand, book in the other.
The note is gone. So is the star shard.
So is Quinn.

God, it was good to be free of that awful world.
Time for some civilization.
You punch in the coordinates to the gummi ship.
Mojito in hand, you sit back and wait for Radiant Garden.

“Radiant Garden. Home of plants, fountains, and terrible drinks. You ask for a gin and tonic, you get some cough medicine.
Only real pro is that it is a hub world.” You scratch out in your notebook. You take a sip of your cough medicine. The waiter drops off the bill. “Very expensive, only go if you’re not the one paying.” You put your pen down, and pinch the bridge of your nose. You forgot how much of a bitch writing is.
You down the rest of your drink, using the chance to check out the weird guy that has been tailing you since you landed. You recognize the uniform as one of the king’s guards.
Maybe the king will pay for your meal if you put a good word in your book.

“Mind if I join you?” a two pack a day voice asks.
You look up. Shit, this creepy fuck.
“You look old as shit Xehanort.”
He laughs at that and takes a seat you did not offer him.
“Well I am working on that.”
That can’t be good.
He must have read your mind or something because he waves you off.
The waiter comes back, he just gets some water.
“So, rumor has it you’ve taken on a new apprentice.” He smirks at you. Bastard.
“Yeah, he’s supposed to be doing his Mark of Mastery right now.”
“You think he will pass?” he wiggles his fingers at that. Fucker always wiggled his finger for some reason.
“Nah, no one passes my test. No one even makes it past their home world.” You lie. You have no doubt that Quinn has already left Twilight Town.
“You know Ford, you and I are very much alike.”
“Oh really?” Fucker.
“Oh yes, we both have the urge to travel and seek knowledge, it is such a shame Eraqus cannot see beyond his small world.” He takes a sip of his water, “I’ve got plans, plans that I will need help accomplishing. Perhaps you and your apprentice will help.”
“Maybe next time, I’ve got to finish my book.” You get up to leave. Who would bond with this creep?
“Ah yes, I cannot wait to read this one. Perhaps you could sign mine next time we meet.”
“Yeah sure.” You wave him off.

You don’t go back to your gummi ship. The stalker is tailing you.
You throw your keyblade into the air, it turns into a surfboard.
You get the hell out of there.

The wind surfer’s engine hums as it sits anchored by nothing in the expanse of the Abyss. Your feet dangle off the side as you read Master Ford’s note that Sif found in the Pink Palace the morning you left.
Those two old ladies that live in the basement make a killer Mint Julep-

You skim past the review parts.
You flip the page over, at the bottom of the page you find what you’re looking for.

I find myself longing for my old world. Over twenty years since I left and trained with Master Jolanda. I don’t remember the name of the world we trained on let alone mine. I doubt I would be able to find it again.
Does anyone even remember me? If I were to find it again would they greet me with open arms or not even realize who I am? I hope Quinn took the time with his family. I know he’s not like the others. He can be a master.

You try not to tear up, but you’re doing a bad job at it.
Wiping away the tears you get up and continue your journey.

Before you are two worlds, the huge city and the strange land that drifts further and further away.

You jet towards the strange land.

As you near it, you realize it is not a world at all but a huge gummi ship. In the center of it is a huge castle with forest and everything.

You fly your way through a giant mouth, which promptly locks behind you.
The ground is covered with a thick layer of fog, the earth is soft and muddy. Your feet squelch with every step.

“OOOOH” you hear a ghost moan as it moves from tree to tree. Neat
A hand pierces up from the ground grabbing your leg. You step on it.
A muffled scream rises from the earth and the hand lets go of you. Weird.
The trees move, despite there being no wind.
Maybe it’s because they’ve got faces and weird looking root legs.
As you walk deeper into the moving forest- or maybe as the forest moves to surround you- a gathering of people shambles towards you.
The people are all discolored ranging from pale blue to sickly green. Bandages cover them, and some are even missing parts. Each of them holds a cutlass.

“You are trespassing on Captain Moria’s ship, surrender your treasure or your life!” the lead person - no zombie? – demands.
“Are you guys zombies?”
“Didn’t you hear? Surrender or die!” he repeats. The crowd behind him makes some generic scary noises.
“You don’t scare me.” You feel a bit sorry for them.
“Oh.” They look down dejected.

“I mean was scared when one of you guys grabbed my foot.” You lie.
“That was me!” you hear a voice yell from the back.
“I think if you guys practiced more. Maybe watch some horror movies and pick up some tips.”
“Thanks, but we’re just not scary.” The leader says. “That’s why we all left with Captain Moria. No point in being in Halloween Town if you can’t even scare people right.”
You pat the zombie on his shoulder, knocking his arm off. “There, there, I’m sure you’ll be scary one day.” You hand him back his arm.
“Thanks” he sniffs and wipes away a rotten tear with his detatched arm. “Now hand over all your treasure.”

Oh.

“So, have any of you seen a guy with long black hair? Looks like a bum and goes by the name of Ford.” You hold the head zombie’s head in your hand. The rest of his body somewhere buried under the rest of the zombies which you now sit on.
“You can use the darkness too!?” he screeches at you.
“Oh, someone else like me is on this world. Ship. World Ship. Whip.” A disembodied hand grabs your arm. You leap from the pile and toss the hand back.
“Why don’t you show me around mister zombie.”
“CAPTAIN SAVE ME!” he shouts.

The forest splits as you walk through it, the trees runaway in fear.
The ghosts seem to creep ever closer.
“What’s up with them?” you ask the head who has stopped screaming. Probably tired.
“Those are mistress Perona ghost. She’s a ghost princess and one of the strongest in the Captain’s crew.” He’s silent like he’s thinking of something. “Maybe you should go talk to them. They are more knowledge able then me.”

Eh, what could go wrong?
Not like you haven't beaten up ghosts before.
As you approach the ghost, which is much cuter and comical then the ones in Twilight Town, two more phase from the ground, surrounding you.

"Yoh." You greet them, "anyway I can talk to your captain?"

The ghost stare at you with unblinking eyes. Tongues hang from their mouths with a perpetual grin.

You feel a shiver run through you, like when Sif melds into your skin except worse.
Why even go on.
you'll never find Ford.
You'll never be a master.
The darkness will over take you or the light will burn Sif away, and you'll be alone stuck on a rock living a meaningless existence.
You want to die.

"Ow!" The zombie head smashes into the ground as it drops from your hand.
You curl up in a ball next to it.

>Quinn my boy! What's wrong?!

You think you can hear All Knight's voice.

"Horo horo horo horo!" A fourth ghost phases through you. The three others smoosh into it forming a girl with a crown.

"Good job zombie", she picks up the head and pats it. "Alright, take him to the brigg, Captain Moria will be interested in him."

NO!

Your arm shoots up, clutching the ghost girl by the leg.
“EW! Get off me! You’re so uncute!” she kicks at you. Oh man she’s got platform heels.
The strike never lands. Sif is there, blocking the kick with its body.
“Thanks Sif.” You manage a weak smile “I’ve tamed the darkness, I’ve fought phantoms and ghouls. What makes you think I won't fight against this despair?" your smile grows into a wicked grin.

You stand, body radiating a purple aura.
“No one can fight despair!” the ghost girl yells. Three more ghosts appear much larger than the previous ones, “and when you’re dead I’ll take that cutie shadow too!” she laughs.
“Sorry but Sif is staying with me. It’s my cute shadow”
You think you see Sif nod. Or it could just be twitching its head. Either way.
The ghost girl takes a fighting stance. “Guess the winner of this fight gets the shadow.” Her voice brimming with confidence.

“Sif!” you call out. The shadow leaps and flips on to your shoulders.
Your aura changes from purple to blue. “See ya!” you dart off into the woods.
“HEY THAT’S NOT FIGHTING YOU COWARD!” you hear her screech at you.

You’re not sure how far you ran, but you think you’ve gone a good distance once you notice the trees no longer have faces. You lean against one and catch your breath. Each one ragged.
They will be looking for you. You can’t stay here.

The captain is probably in the castle, and the zombies mentioned treasure. They’re pirates, stealing from them wouldn’t be illegal.

In the distance you can hear someone singing.

You can steal some treasure later, time to see whose singing.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5QS2BNF7kjI

Alone in the middle of a glen, a skeleton stands playing a violin.
Strangly enough he has an afro. Guess those rumors about your hair growing when you die are true.
You approach him. He’s much taller than you expected, about eight feet tall. Guess bones keep growing too.
“Yoh.” You wave.
The skeleton turns around slowly. Then it screams. Ow.
“You don’t have to be so loud.”
“Please don’t take me to Moria! I just want to go home now!” he begs on all fours.
“Chill man, I’m trying to escape from them too. And maybe take some treasure. We’ll see how things go.” You pat him on his head. “So, you part of the crew or something?”
“Oh no, my brother is the king of Halloween Town, and when Moria broke off a piece of the town and left with his crew…well”
“They kidnapped you? Cause you’re the king’s brother?”
“No, I was just napping on the part they took off. Now I’m stuck in this scary forest!”
“That sucks.” You shake your head

“Alright time to get up.” You hold out a hand for the skeleton.
“Thank you, kind sir.”
“No problem, just call me Quinn though.”
“Alright Sir Quinn, I am the Gentleman Brook.”
“You know you’ve got a nice set of pipes on you.”
“Even though you don’t have any.” You both say at the same time.
“YOHOHOHO SKULL JOKE!” Brook yells.
“But seriously, you sing pretty well.”
“Of course I do.” Brook wipes the dirt from his pants and adjust his hat. “The only one who can be compared to me is my brother Jack.” He straightens up clearly proud in himself.
So, all these people come from a world that loves singing and being scary. An idea pops into your head. A devilish smirk crosses your face.

>Quinn, wealth should not be put before saving civilians.
You’ll donate the money to charity. Some of it.

“OK Brook, ready?”
“As ready as I’ll ever be! YOHOHO!”

You summon Abyss Watcher. You pray to kingdom hearts and begin to reshape your keyblade. It flashes purple. As the shimmer fades you find that it worked perfectly.
Damn how are you not a master?
In your hand you hold a guitar. You pluck the strings with tentative fingers. Nothing snaps.
You play C major scale. Then E minor.
Beautiful.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PwXai-sgM-s

You begin your march.
You run into the zombies first. They stare at you with shock which quickly turns to awe. Soon enough they’re singing and marching along.
Sif weaves through them, Brook’s hat in hand. A pile of coins already forming.
“Louder Brook we need them all to hear!”

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xIx_HbmRnQY

The trees join your march as even more zombies rise from the ground to give you mone- you mean join your mob.

Soon enough you’re at the castle gates. So is the ghost girl.
“So, is this a mutiny?” she eyeballs the crowd.
“No, just a concert.”
