[b][color=0000DC][center][h3]The Velvet Room[/h3][/center][/color][/b] The long-nosed man first turns his head to address Ami and Radcliff, his expression unchanging. [color=0000DC]“My apologies, how rude of me. My name is Igor.”[/color] He then bowed his head slightly, either as a sign of respect or an apology. Igor seemed thoughtful as to how to present the next answer, when Safie stepped forward. [color=1e90ff]“Master, if I may?”[/color] Igor simply nodded, as she addressed the guests. [color=1e90ff]“Imagine every legend, champion, god, myth, and monster humanity has ever dreamed of being unleashed upon the world. That should paint a sufficient picture for now.”[/color] Igor nodded in satisfaction at her brief summary of the threat at hand. Clerval looked over to Igor, to which Igor gestured for him to go on. Clerval nodded, as he turned back towards the guests. [color=4682b4]“To help save humanity from this calamity, you will be granted mighty gifts by our master. I don’t believe we’re at liberty to say more, however the power you will be presented with later will seem unbelievable to you now.”[/color] Igor lowered his head slightly, as his tone started with almost disappointment. [color=0000DC]“As for the individual who doomed the world, I am unfortunately not at liberty to say who or where the individual is.”[/color] As he spoke, his demeanor gradually returned to a more neutral tone. [color=0000DC] “However, fate wills your confrontation, thus it is certain to occur in due time. What you do when you confront them will be your decision, we are only here to warn, strengthen, and guide. Not to force desired outcomes.”[/color] [color=0000DC]“The world will end imminently, however not immediately. You will have a mere few hours between awakening from this dream, and the beginning of the end, as it were.”[/color] Igor paused for a brief moment to let the rough timeframe sink in, as if emphasizing the importance of it. [color=0000DC]“I’m certain you will all be able to find each other either soon before or soon after.”[/color] His smile took an almost confidant quality to it, as if it was assured.
