Private Valley of the Sun an oath under the valley

[Herculean Drakecon]

While the first meeting with jin he was promising this was a better place to make some kind of vow. What would the blood oath entail he wasn't sure but he was interested. He would have the meeting in a beautiful green valley with the sun high in the air. Lots of things were going thru his mind while he waited for jin to show up. Mostly trying to keep track of any other people that were on the Marton mission, another player he would remember seeing more so hear. Bluebird ruby has mentioned being worried about during the event but had seen her briefly. While piling thru some thoughts in he felt a small creature on his shoulder a tiny field mouse. Putting out his finger and getting it a eye level to examine it better. Terrasphere was interesting, to say the least with features akin to creatures in the real world. Does that mean they have souls or something? He wasn't sure how deep this game went but it was mind-boggling for sure.

Putting his fingers down on the ground and tells the small creature to move on for the better. His mind refocused on the idea of the blood oath and what it would entail for him. Jin was surely eccentric and would come around if he played his cards right but would still have to earn his respect. The first step would most likely make this blood oath which could both benefit or hurt him if he didn't play his cards right. He actually liked jin from their small interactions. For now they were still natural and hopefully this meeting you sway him to join his cause. Laying in the grassy field he would take a moment to relax. Closing his eyes and bathed in the warm glow of the sun while he waited if and when jin showed up.

Such a pretty choice of locale, he noted silently. It ran oppositional to the kind of contract that the other man wanted to enter into. War was the antithesis of peace, and conflict the enemy of serenity. Yet, there were many masters of the art who favored a peacetime that balanced out their lifetime of chaos. Jin found such notions unnerving.

The world they came from was rife with conflict, and yet, citizens of the great nations lived in luxury when compared with those trapped in the third world. At best, they worried over what to have for dinner, and in the worst of times, they wondered if they would have dinner at all. They never worried if they would live to see tomorrow. It was a lie when those people prattled on about how tomorrow wasn't promised. Uncertainty was a falsehood, something enshrined by the establishment in order to allow them to feed off of public anxiety.

It had grown fat on their despair, and lethargic. That world bored Jin. He wondered if perhaps, this one might offer him more.

"My, but you're enjoying yourself, aren't you?" he asked, a wry smile on his face. He watched the other man for only a moment before he looked their surroundings over. It never hurt to be prepared. Though they agreed to meet alone, and in a place that looked like something out of Hello Kitty Island Adventure, Jin was never naïve enough to believe there was no possibility of danger. "Almost as though you were undaunted by our last brush with death."

And wasn't that the crux of it?

This man called on Jin, in their last meeting, to stand as his battle brother. But where did he stand? Was he afraid of the prospect of death? Was it for a desire to surmount such a fear that he felt called to make such a request? Jin, curious by nature, sought to know more.

"Tell me, Drakecon," Jin invited. "Are you not afraid to die?"

Herculean would act cool seeing how he showed up to talk he was interested in. Getting up from laying down and sat in a cross-legged position dusting himself off. The various kind of grass and pollen all over his tunic which he shook off in one powerful shake."Why yes terrosphere is a beautiful place when it isn't trying to kill ya know. I've been traveling around when I the chance because well I don't see this much landscape in real life."Laughing as it was true since he often did backbreaking labor as a job so terrosphere was more relaxing than it should. Standing up now as he smiled a toothy grin before sighing and stretching casually before saying to jin"Let us walk and talk for while to really gather the experience of this place". Reaching out his hand and running thru the grassy plains taking the moment.

Jin's next comment would be about their last fight almost killing them casually would make him nod with a smile."Oh, ya of course but I've read manga about this same idea. The game is will try to kill you or something. The genre has become overloaded with it but death isn't something i am actively worried about."Not wanting to come off like an asshole would frown for a moment realizing that he himself UI
locked himself. What would be a moment that should shake him to his core only made him burst into laughter. When jin asked him if he was afraid to die but he would just shrug and laugh more. Turning to jin with an unwavering resolve smile on his face."Well first and foremost I'm not afraid to die only never try, I am UI locked so I am taking a huge risk. Shane's passing it made me realize that I should strive to put others before myself when it calls for it". Stroking his chin for a moment getting serious and trying before continuing to speak.

"i am putting together a team of warriors to prevent what happened at the Marton fight to happen again". He would stop and turn to him with a big smile that serious moment was gone in almost an instant. Pointing a jin then saying proudly" I herculean drakneson think that destiny wanted us to meet. After all don't you want to turn terrorhphere upside down with me? With my muscle and well you being you we will create the greatest team of seven warriors and flip this game on its head".As almost cheesy as anime was this moment he would have a genuine partnership with him. Every word out of his mouth was as truthful and jolly as possible.
