I agree.

@Galvanize

I don't think I like the sound of that...

I see. I'll begin an analysis.

Ho boy. Any way I can help?

*the door bursts open, and Aeron walks in*

Aeron: kicking down this door to find you two is like opening a present on christmas. Be good and die, wont you?

Mierno: well, fuck.

*flits toward Aeron in an instant, forcing a kick directly to his chest, sending him skidding out of the doorway, and looks to Data*

Hurry up with that! I'll keep em busy!

*Nods, opening the same pocket dimension the experiment took place, which replaces and fills the landscape*

*it clashes against the barrier*

Mierno: *gets thrown through the base*

Aeron: you're quite the combatant, Mierno. Too bad that talent wpuld go to waste.

*looks over to you*

Speaking of talent going to waste... why do you still support a fialed system?

@souleaterfan320

You appear to be mistaken. The Tier System is currently active.

@Galvanize

Are you going to try anything?

*From within the gate, rolling hills adorned with gems and precious metals fill the landscape in every direction, dotted with cities scattered on the horizon*
I may be worse off than when we met, but I don’t have a death wish yet. From here, we track down one of the residents and call it a day.

@Artifact

You aren't picky?

@Valiance

Not this time. Where’s that stop you want to make?

@Artifact

Then I will be the picky one. And the “where” is hard to explain, but we’ll get to it after we’ve helped you.

@Valiance

Why do you care who it is?

@Artifact

Taking someone innocent makes me no better than the people I’ve sworn my life to bringing to justice. And if we’re going to build you back up to what you used to be, or even better, then we’re going to do it better. Do it right.

@Valiance

I don’t realize why you care so much about a creature worth less than dirt. I’m doing the universe a favor here.

@Artifact

I don’t. I don’t care about these people at all. But no one deserves the tragedies you’ve endured. Even if it’s at your own hands.

Your idealism will get you killed, you know.

@Artifact

Grief is a sickness. And if you attack more than just the cause, you’re bound to spread it.
…
The exact individuals who wronged you. Do you know what happened to them?

...
*Kicks up a mound of moist soil*
Our village eventually rose up against the tyrant. Somehow they killed it. Feasted on the beast for days.
*Jabs a clawed thumb toward my chest*
And now I’m forced to carry it with me like a curse.

@Artifact

The best thing you can do with a curse, is make sure those responsible are shown justice, and then to hold it tightly. Never be the reason someone else feels as you do, or you’re no better than what you call dirt.
*Straightens my shoulders*
The “justice” part is what I hope to do when we leave here finally. To tell you where we’re going.
