005 Dark Towers Destroyed; Video; Action;

[oceantrauma]

[Ken's situated in the library, books strewn out around him, but currently they're pushed to the side, his attention on the device, expression thoughtful.]

Rapunzel-san mentioned stars the other day. I decided to tell some stories from my home world about them, along with the names I recall, and look through the library for other stories and names.

However, it made me realize some of us may be from the same world, but you would still know stories and legends of the stars I don't. And there are other people from other worlds that would have completely different stars, and different stories.

Would you please share your stories of stars from home with us?

[He's expecting someone (three someones at different times), but feel free to answer in person, run across him in the library by chance, bug him about the books, anything.]

There's a story about a star in my world if you would like to hear it.

[Estelle loves the stars, they were always so pretty to look at out from her window in the castle, but she loved looking at them even moreso outside the castle on her journey.]

[Rapunzel grins and waves at him as she enters the library, walking quickly over to him before sitting down.]

Hi, Ken!

Wow, you got a lot of books...are they all about the stars?

[oceantrauma]

Of course I would like to hear it. And if Rapunzel-san doesn't catch this, I'll share it with her, as well.

Hello!

Some of them, yes. I was looking through the others to see if I could find any extra information about this place, but I haven't had much luck.

We can just focus on stars for now, though.

Where have you been looking for information about the City? I could help, if you'd like.

Okay, that sounds nice!

Uh...I brought a few sketches of what I charted from my tower. I don't think they're right, but...

Oh. That's right. You've been here longer, so you've probably learned more about this place. And someone else mentioned a guide? I never received one when I arrived. Do you know of this?

Well, no, I don't think they're entirely accurate. [Staring at the sketches with wide eyes all the same, before looking up at her with that slightly amazed look.] But they are pretty. You're very talented.

[For all of the things he could do as the Digimon Kaiser, he could have never created something so beautiful, and he knows it. That genius was far different from honest talent.]

Oh, the guide! I do have a copy of it. They say that you're supposed to be able to download it through your device, but I think there's a paper copy in the library somewhere. And if that doesn't work, I could download my copy and print it out for you. [She still have no clue how that all works but who cares. Rapunzel goes pink and beams at the compliment.]

Thank you very much! I didn't think they were completely accurate, but I just drew what I thought they looked like from the window...

It is a story of the brightest star in the night sky-- [Even if that star doesn't exist anymore, she will speak of it as it is] --called Brave Vesperia.

[She closes her eyes, as if recalling a fond memory.]

"In the days of old, a great cataclysm occurred that plunged the world into ruin. Countless lives were lost as the people struggled to stand against the oncoming disaster. Its energies all but spent, humanity's hope seemed lost when a pair of siblings appeared. This brother and sister together fought the calamity, and saved the world from annihilation. The sister they called Child of the Full Moon. After the struggle, she remained with the earth. The brother they called Brave Vesperia, and ascended to the skies to watch over the world."

The end.

You like stars that much then?

Hello. My name is Sephiroth.

I'm familiar with a legend about a star from my world. I'll tell it to you, if you'd like to hear it.

[wishgrant]

I don't really know stories about stars, but I know fairy tales!

[had_not_lived]

What about stories from the City?

[ruthless_hunter]

I got a personal one 'bout a star.

[oceantrauma]

Any kind would be appreciated.

[oceantrauma]

Those are perfectly fine. Especially since I don't know those yet.

[oceantrauma]

No, it's more a general curiosity. And something to pass the time with.

Besides, it's not a bad way to learn about others here, or other worlds.

[had_not_lived]

Well, it's not exactly the kind of story you might be thinking of.

I used to know a star. Her name was Yvaine.

[oceantrauma]

It's a pleasure to meet you, Sephiroth-san. I am Ken Ichijouji.

Please, feel free to share your story. They're all welcome.

[oceantrauma]

[Darn it. That's a really cute face there.]

Ah, well, I wasn't looking for fairy tales. But if you want to, go ahead and share. It never hurts to learn more, I suppose.

[oceantrauma]

No, that's fine since we were also looking for star na-

[oceantrauma]

You KNEW a star?

Stars are...sentient where you're from?

And that's still a good story to share. Especially since she had a name.

Action;

[oceantrauma]

I didn't know it could be downloaded. If we find a paper copy, I'll use that to find it on my device. Or...couldn't you look for the location on your device, and I can download it from there?

[Here he catches himself. Who's to say they aren't accurate?]

Wait. I may be mistaken. We don't know if we're from the same world. Or the same time, even if same world. That matters. Different eras have different stars in the sky, and different locations, and it depends on where we live in relation to each other, as well. These may, in fact, be accurate.

[oceantrauma]

So that other guy talking about a female star isn't the only one with a story of a sentient star. Is that all there is to the legend?

[had_not_lived]

Not where I'm from, no. At least, not as far as I know.

She lived in the City, though she left... it must be a year ago now, or almost. I don't know very much about her world, but I used to speak to her quite a lot.

She was very kind.

[oceantrauma]

I see.

It would have been interesting to meet her. Shame she is no longer here. Still, whatever you knew of her would be informative.
