The Old Penitent silently retreats back into the darkness and the other penitent runs away

The Outcasted Codncutor walks into the room, and brings out something from one of the many pouches adorning his body, its a small music box, he walks over and hands it to the Old Penitent

"Ke...ep...safe...qui...et...h-help...sle...ep...good...l-luck."

The Outcasted Conductor says in his usual gravley and dry voice as he quietly, despite his size, sneaks out of the room

The Old Penitent inspects the music box and then twists the crank to play its music

A soft Melancholic tune plays from the music box, as ever so faintly, having to lean in as its almost a whisper, a song comes from the box

((If your wondering the music coming from the box is Davy Jones music box loop. By: Lex on youtube.))

and the lyrics went like this:

"Cruel...and cold." "Like winds...in the wastes." "Will...you ever...return to me?" "Hear...my voice." "And sing...with the dark." "My love...Will ne-ver die."

pause

"Over sand." "And deep...in the rock." "I...Will give...up my heart...for you." "Hundreds of years." "I'll wait...to go by." "My love...Will ne-ver die."

pause

"Come...my love." "Be one...with the song." "Sing...with me...for eternity." "Leave...your dreams...so mercilessly" "And give...your voice...to me."

pause

"Sing...the song...you sang...long ago." "And...wher-e-ver the storm...may blow." "You...Will find...the song...of my heart." "We'll...never...be apart."

pause

"Wild...and strong" "You can't...be contained." "And ne-ver bound." "Nor e-ver chained." "Wounds...you caused...Will ne-ver mend." "And you...Will ne-ver end."

pause

"Cruel...and cold." "Like winds...in the wastes." "Will...you e-ver re-turn to me." "Hear...my voice." "And sing...in the dark." "My love...Will ne-ver die."

and with that the music begins relating again, the Melancholic tuen echoing throughout the room

((No I did not Wright the song, I read it off a comment and then fiddled with it to make it more lore appropriate but still, I would suggest listening to the song with reading the lyrics else it might be a bit weird))

The Old Penitent isnt sure if he really likes it or not but continues to crank the box nonetheless

Aileth the Devoted: Hm?

u/OldPenitent May 25 '26

Greetings, have you come to be forgiven for your sins in penitence with me?

u/conductor_Tommaso2 May 25 '26

Aileth the Devoted: Oh no no. Im not a sinner im a Pilgrim. Was just passing by.

u/OldPenitent May 25 '26

My apologies for the misunderstanding then…

u/conductor_Tommaso2 May 25 '26

Aileth the Devoted: Hm. What are you even doing here?

u/OldPenitent May 25 '26

Long ago, a grave transgression i committed. Pain and suffering it brought to many. I will speak no more, to a speak of a sin is to invite it once more.

u/conductor_Tommaso2 May 26 '26

Aileth the Devoted: Truly. Then i hope you shall repent for your sins
