The Mountain's Peak

[The City [EclipseZwolf]]

-The wind grows fiercer as the gold tinge continues to coalesce-

"You claim not to know and to not be able to determine, but why don't you just step through it. The journey starts at wood. Where does it end?"

"Bound to the rifle? No that rifle is its own object, made of gold and emerald. I have nothing to do with Aeternus now."

[Ryohei Sasagawa[Hero]]

"stein you are just dragging me up and down the street for days, I believe that the wood turned to gold is to get us to come here and kill each other lessening the amount of humans on the planet which in turn lessons the amount of humans damaging the earth...which I believe like you became gold she became earth..."

"you discovered her not far from that stump she was severally weakened from the destruction mankind has wrought upon her you learned of M.A.K.E. that did this to her and decided that she one of the greatest scientific minds of the last few centuries did not deserve this suffering..."

[The City [EclipseZwolf]]

-The gold tinge again spreads through the air and draws closer to Sion, Laguna, and Atalanta-

"Share my obsession? What a joke, you can't even put together the basics. You are completely mistaken about my purpose. All you can do is jump to wild conclusions! If you can't work to uncover the truth then I will end your pitiful existences right now!"

hi stein don't get mad , don't you attract people by the gold you're making with this rifle if you want them here why kill them ?

forgive us stein if we have insulted you in anyway , we're not looking for violence here

[The City [EclipseZwolf]]

-The gold tinge fades back from the group slightly, but not much-

"Kill them? I don't do the killing, at least, not unless its strictly necessary. Begging for forgiveness isn't going to change anything though."

[Deleted]

oh gold tinge may I leave the area unharmed ??

forgive me again if anything wrong came out of me, I shall not bother you~

[The City [EclipseZwolf]]

"Just get out of my sight before I change my mind."

[Ryohei Sasagawa[Hero]]

"hey Vindr that's very distracting when you do that..."

"Vindr all I can think is the need for all the wood to change to gold will be to bring many adventurers this will start in fighting leading to many deaths and the creation of blood energy...this leads me to think that like aeternus your ancestor needs large quantities of the blood energy because of what she has become...in order to ease her suffering"

[The City [EclipseZwolf]]

-The golden tinge coalesces into a almost humanoid is shape and speaks with a satisfied voice-

"Close, I don't need blood energy per say. I just need bodies. And our dear friend and that gold are going to fulfill that need very shortly."

[Ryohei Sasagawa[Hero]]

"Stein you need all these bodies for experimentation to ease her suffering...she needs something from this research maybe you seek to cure her through countless trials an errors using M.A.K.E. on these dead bodies...but why would it ease her suffering is what I am unsure of maybe she herself needs these corpses...to study as she has insufficient knowledge and must continue to absorb it through the study of the corpses..."

[The City [EclipseZwolf]]

-The gold tinge coalesces even more and you think you can actually see the outline of a person now-

"Yes....I just want to help her..... nobody deserves what happened to her...."

[Ryohei Sasagawa[Hero]]

"Vindr Stein, I believe what you saw and did for her must show what has happened to her clearly must be awful..."

"I would like to know couldn't you have asked aeterunus for help he was able to understand that techno-babble and may have been able to assist..."

[The City [EclipseZwolf]]

-The gold tinge fully coalesces into a humanoid shape. And you see the body of the mastermind, a being made of gold dust with wind in his veins-


"He can't help... he just wo-"


-The ground shakes and you notice to late to react. The ground beneath the fully coalesced Vindr shatters and from the ground shoots a lady in red who slams two huge clamps together, forming a sarcophagus shape that imprisons Vindr-


-The lady leaps into the air and flies off using an energy you cannot perceive-


-The wind...dies down....and fades away-


The Wind Wall has Fallen


And the Balance of power has Shifted.

[Ryohei Sasagawa[Hero]]

"VINDR NOOOO"

*slips and falls as I reach out towards the fading red dot in the sky...*

*stands up slowly*

"I swear on my HOPE Magnum...I will save you my friend..."
