'Shock' 01 [Video]

[chaoticelement]

[There's a man in green armor peering at the journal, sword drawn, looking extremely pensive.]

...What matter of contraption is this!? Could this be another one of Kefka's doings!? I heard he was here... [Appears to be lost in thought until the feed times out.]

[Private to Sephiroth - Voice]

[When the voice starts, it is once again Kefka's.]

You must be a new arrival. There's no need to worry about the book, but Kefka is indeed here.

[Voice]

[chaoticelement]

Indeed... only been here a few days... Terra said as much... perhaps I can yet redeem myself...

[Voice]

[38thdefender]

But your journal only appeared today? That is unusual. But who knows why the Malnosso do anything they do?

My name is Kurtis. I have been assisting in the search for Kefka.

[Voice]

[chaoticelement]

No... I arrived during that... ball or whatever it was. I had it with me upon arrival, but had attempted to destroy it, having thought it one of Kefka's contraptions. It just now reappeared before me.

Well met Kurtis. And while I appreciate the work towards finding Kefka, if it would be possible, I would like to strike at the villain.

...We have unfinished business with each other.

[Voice]

[esper_flight]

...shouldn't you have discovered it a long time ago, before the party?

[Voice]

[chaoticelement]

I had. I simply thought I destroyed it before... apparently I had not.

[Voice]

[esper_flight]

I see.

I....

[Trails off.]

[Voice]

[chaoticelement]

Is something the matter, Terra?

[Voice]

[eidolon_soul]

No, it's just the Malnosso's way of having us all keep in touch. Kefka is around, but I don't think he's been heard from in a while.

[Voice]

[chaoticelement]

Hmm... disconcerting... who knows what is brewing in that broken soul's mind...?

[Voice]

[eidolon_soul]

You sound like you might, since you at least knew Kefka. What can you tell me about him?

[Voice]

[chaoticelement]

Considering Terra is here, I imagine she has told you as much as I could have about his recent activities... However, I do hope to honor the memory of the Kefka that was at one time my friend... a friend that our world - despite what he has become - owes much to.

He had a brilliant mind, having perfected Magitek... of course, that was before we knew Magicite were the crystallized souls of Espers... but, even so, he single handedly pulled civilization out of the dark ages by first discovering ways to harness electricity for the same purposes that we had used coal for up until then.

(ooc: I have and always wondered what sort of epic chaos would come of Kefka meeting a Joker.)

Presumptuous, isn't it, to speak of us in a plan I as yet haven't agreed to?

[chaoticelement]

[OOC: He has, and it was EPIC. Oh that was fun times. >:3]

Let's just say, I'm confident that it'll pique your interest.

(ooc: *_*)

Go on.

I have already set in motion a bit of a plan to turn the inhabitants on one another. It has had a small success, due in large part to the meddling of those calling themselves 'The Returners.' I have been - as you can see - attempting to gain their trust by introducing a figure they respect from my world.

That's where you come in, friend. They will never believe that Leo Christophe has really arrived until they see that we are indeed not the same person. To that effect, I would like to stage a bit of a performance. You would take the roll of Leo, while we 'converse' where the Returners are sure to take notice of us.

Once I have convinced them that Leo is indeed here, taking out those that would pose a significant threat to our cause would be far too easy.

Cooperate with me in this, and I can assure you, you will have my fullest support in anything you wish to pursue on your own as well.
