Farewell
34 Revived

As the sun rises on Saturday morning, all will be quiet and still in the village. Not a single soul stirs as the sun and the moon linger in the sky, visible should anyone look.

A shimmer of stars spark through the air as a swirl of darkness lifts from the village. Everything has returned to as it once was, all 16 houses in-tact and all buildings precisely as they were before. Beams of light follow, soaring through the air and delivering every single participant back to this plane of existence.

As participants gather their wits and take in their surroundings, they'll find that a celebratory banquet has been prepared for them not unlike the one that originally greeted them. Decorations hang from the rafters and windows as lively music plays and can be heard in every part of the village. Some may even be able to trace the source to a gathering of musical instruments, and even...a turntable? Strange. All manner of fruits and vegetables appear to be perfect for harvest, and a variety of freshly cooked dishes from across many worlds can be found on display at the tables in the center. If you don't see your favorite dish? All of the ingredients can be found, along with amenities to make it yourself.

Surrounding the center of the village, several gateways open one by one, a soft gold glow emitting from them. No dangers linger in these parts, but adventure awaits those who wish to find it. Likewise, silver gateways open alongside these and serve as portals that allow participants to return to their homeworlds whenever they're ready.

Your Oracle Bells are in working condition, all messages saved from your time here and featuring a new network feature. Even as you leave this world, you're only 140 characters away from the friends you've come to cherish. Look around at those who join you today. Look hard enough, and you may even find some familiar faces you haven't seen for a very, very long time.

Though your time in this village draws to a close, the universe has settled and found a path to follow. You will always have a place here should you wish to return, and even when you depart for your next destination, your strength and power will follow you.

Your gratitude will be remembered, participants. Congratulations.

Yes, that's...

[ a little awkward, for him. ]

I'm not sure how much good they'd do. Where I come from, people just... aren't capable of these things. I'd probably just have to hide it.

Axel's is funny, since he already had fire-based abilities before we came here.

[ lmao ]

[ fucking rip axel, butt of a cosmic joke ]

... That's awful. I almost pity him.

[ she just nods ]

His luck is just like that.

On the other hand, none of us knew we'd be keeping these. It would have just meant less training on his part to get used to them while we were here.

[ but at what cost ]

... that's true.

It'll probably be a little useful for me, at least. I might not have to stay on the sidelines that much.

... Did you have to do a lot of that, where you came from?

... well, I did work too.

I just never really helped with things like fighting, and people would have to protect me.

Fighting isn't the only thing that matters.

[ ... ]

Even if a lot of the evidence seemed to point to the contrary, here...

... yeah.

Although I didn't really fight on my own here either.

[ ... he tsks a little at that, actually? ]

There's no shame in that. The strength of others' support is valid in itself. It's fine to want to be able to stand on your own, but you shouldn't beat yourself up about it if you were still able to contribute in other ways.

[ there's a pause, as she considers that...

and then a slow nod. ]

You're right. I think it's just easier to just focus on the things you could have done better instead of what you did right.

... it is. More reason to keep working at getting better, though.

[ ... ]

Is this about what happened with those portals, in the end?

... it was all pretty rushed, wasn't it?

[ they had so little time to relive through traumas. ]

It was. A rather interesting time, to say the least.

[ he has so many questions about where minato comes from now. ]

... yeah.

I'm probably not going to mention it to the others.

[ the people who were still alive the final week ]

... I don't think it will do any good for them to know, will it?

[ while you all were having a very calm battle royale to the death, we were busy unpacking our baggage. hm. yeah. ]

It doesn't matter. Let them wonder.

... mm. Right.

[ it's fine if they keep a few secrets. ]

Do you have any immediate plans?

Honestly, not at the moment. I was expecting my portal to head back to somewhere slightly different than where it actually opened, but all that means is that my only pressing concern is here, currently.

[ baby ludger somewhere in the village... ]

Our worlds have been fine so far. They should be fine whether or not we hurry back immediately. What about you?

... there's really nothing too pressing for me to go back to. So I think I'm going to wait until everyone else leaves before going.

[ she wants to keep drawing. it's been nice to be able to exist like this, and naminé isn't sure how long it'll be until her timeline catches up with the others. ]

... not ready to leave this all behind just yet?

It's hard to explain... but I guess I also just want to make sure everyone leaves safely.

Are you still half expecting something to happen even now?

It's not really here and more...

[ she gestures at the people hanging around

she has Concerns about a few of them. ]

[ he doesn't even need to look, the gesture is. clear enough ]

Ah. That's... very understandable, all things considered.
