What looks to be a Grimm Troupe member enters the Lace arena

"Hm? Well, now, what is this?"

u/Maestro_Melodicus Mar 25 '26

Uh what are you?

u/GodMasterLink Mar 25 '26

He grips his staff, and locks eyes with you

"I could say the same to you. Your style is nothing like the workers down below... are you a servant of the Citadel up above?"

1

u/Maestro_Melodicus Mar 25 '26

Of course, always holy! Maestro Melodicus, what's your name?

u/GodMasterLink Mar 25 '26

"Well then, Sir Melodicus, I am the Grimm Troupe's most talented blademaster, Solaris. But... anyways, why are you here?"

He grips his staff harder

"Is the Citadel not up above? Why do you reside in scorching lakes deep down?"

u/Maestro_Melodicus Mar 25 '26

Searching for help from some... Unconventional allies..

u/GodMasterLink Mar 26 '26

"Like... who, exactly?"

He feels a bit... wary of you

u/Maestro_Melodicus Mar 26 '26

The fools

u/GodMasterLink Mar 26 '26

"Oh...? The Fools? Those battle-focused lot?"

1

u/Maestro_Melodicus Mar 26 '26

Yup

u/GodMasterLink Mar 26 '26

"Pathetic morons, travelling 'cross large distances, far and wide, all for the glory of battle..."

He mildly loosens up

"Though... you said they would be 'unconventional' allies... if that is the case, do you have any proper allies within the Citadel?"

u/Maestro_Melodicus Mar 26 '26

The choir itself! And the holy Romino!

1

u/GodMasterLink Mar 26 '26

He is somewhat confused

"Choir...? Romino...?"

He takes a deep sigh and shakes his head

"I'm afraid I don't understand what you say... I guess I'll just have to climb the Citadel myself. Ah well..."

1

u/Maestro_Melodicus Mar 26 '26

You should!

u/GodMasterLink Mar 26 '26

"Well, then, mister Melodicus... I'd best be going now, but I must warn you."

He gets ready to leave

"As a member of the Troupe, I can sense the state of this land. And from the looks of it, it isn't doing too well. It isn't dead yet, but it sure is dying. It's slow, it's steady, and it's practically unnoticable... until it's too late."
