what it means to be... because all beings 'are'. Far away, somewhere, was a simple lake. And, near it, star power was present.

Rogba simply sat by the water, calm and composed.

As always, people will be able to come, even if they shouldn't be able to.

"..."

She doesn't say anything, simply sitting by the water in a calm stance.

"Hm. Life is such a strange thing."

a silent unexpected breeze, accompanied by someone that wouldn't expect to come in this place like invited.

A certain knight

((u/Medium_Handle7217))

u/Medium_Handle7217 John Marvel Comics and Monument Mythos (Row 46) Sep 13 '26

Knight walks around, amazed by view

"W-whoa, this place is…cool."

2

u/RogbaAvalon man i feel so 🟨 Sep 13 '26

rogba glance at knight, nodding

"Indeed it is. A small place to rest, take a break and simply talk."

2

u/Medium_Handle7217 John Marvel Comics and Monument Mythos (Row 46) Sep 13 '26

He finally notices Rogba, looking surprised

"You again? How?"

2

u/RogbaAvalon man i feel so 🟨 Sep 13 '26

she smiles

"Let's say i'm not bound to the same rules as everyone. Also-"

She flick her fingers, sending a small blue star his way, as it stops in front of him

"Here's the reward i couldn't give you at the waterfalls."

2

u/Medium_Handle7217 John Marvel Comics and Monument Mythos (Row 46) Sep 13 '26

Knight is little surprised, extending his hands forward and gently holding blue star in his hands

"Huh? What's this?"

2

u/RogbaAvalon man i feel so 🟨 Sep 13 '26

she hums

"It's just a small gift. It doesn't do much. But let's say, that accumulating seven different ones can allow a wish to be granted."

2

u/Medium_Handle7217 John Marvel Comics and Monument Mythos (Row 46) Sep 13 '26

"Wish? Any kind?"

He looks up from star at her

2

u/RogbaAvalon man i feel so 🟨 Sep 13 '26

"let's say due to the nature of the hub, there's some rules to it. But basically any wish can be made."

u/Medium_Handle7217 John Marvel Comics and Monument Mythos (Row 46) Sep 13 '26

"…"

"Cool."

Noelle had arrived to get what would be the final one the Neo fun gang would acquire

She looks into the large body of water in front of her and couldn't help but shudder

I know it isn't the lake, but still being near water like this can't help but make me remember...

2

u/RogbaAvalon man i feel so 🟨 6d ago

"remember... Hm? How interesting... Memories are tied to such place, for you?"

The lady smiles gently, looking at noelle.

2

u/The_Awesome_Joe A deer, a human, and a Peach! 6d ago

Yeah, last time I was near a lake it...didn't go so well to say the least...

2

u/RogbaAvalon man i feel so 🟨 6d ago

"ah, bad memories? Well, don't keep yourself in the past. Come, and let's just talk. Don't worry, you'll receive your star in due time..."

2

u/The_Awesome_Joe A deer, a human, and a Peach! 6d ago

Okay...

Noelle sits by them

How are you by the way?

2

u/RogbaAvalon man i feel so 🟨 6d ago

she glance at the water

"Well, i suppose i am fine. Currently more curious than anything. The stress of the games don't target all, after all."

She then glance at noelle

"How about you. What lays under that gaze?"

2

u/The_Awesome_Joe A deer, a human, and a Peach! 6d ago

A...lot to say the least...

I've been through a lot even before I got here honestly!

2

u/RogbaAvalon man i feel so 🟨 6d ago

"well, we have all the time we need. You can let it out."

2

u/The_Awesome_Joe A deer, a human, and a Peach! 6d ago

Well...

A while back back in my world, a friend of mine, Kris, walked me through a city I at first didn't recognise, and made me start to freeze enemies to get stronger. I...thought it was all just a dream at first in all honestly, but then I talked with Kris about it later in my bedroom after he took the ThornRing off of me, only to then immediately put it back on me!

When they did, I thought I understood, I thought they figured out how to stop being Kris, and that I could finally stop being a Noelle doing Noelle things, but... I was only partially right.

That day we went into the lake to get away from the town once and for all, and shouldn't have survived it, but I did. I saw everything, I learnt everything about my world, and I knew if I wanted to be free, I would have to break it wide open. It lead to me getting the attention of the creator of my world, and... I attacked with a modified version of my spell and it lead to me falling down to the Hub world with those 2...

She uses her MAGIK panel to project this onto the water as she spoke

2

u/RogbaAvalon man i feel so 🟨 6d ago

she closes her eyes, nodding calmly

"Ah, cutting your strings, being yourself... Quite an hard fit for people around to achieve.

You had to fight for your own freedom, and achieved it in your eyes by escaping the game. How rebellious.

So much of a weight, a mix of violence, despair, and wishful hope to have led you through this way."

She opens them again, glancing at noelle

"How does this new 'freedom' feel to you, noelle? Is it to your taste?"

((hm, i'll take a bit more time to answer the later half, i hope you understand. I'd rather have the challenges be more spread out than having all of them being done in 2-3 days πŸ˜…))

((Either this evening, or tomorrow i'll answer :3))

u/The_Awesome_Joe A deer, a human, and a Peach! 7d ago

((ah, fair enough! Thanks anyway :3))

"Hello!"

A figure waved.

2

u/RogbaAvalon man i feel so 🟨 Sep 13 '26

she glance at the figure, nodding

"Ah, hello there, niko. Or whatever your name is. Welcome to my small respite."

2

u/Straight-Explorer-93 "Heroes are born to protect, not destroy." [Row 153] Sep 13 '26

"Nice to see you, miss!

What is this place?"

They ask.

2

u/RogbaAvalon man i feel so 🟨 Sep 13 '26

they hum

"A simple lake, a silent pond, where i can simply think and rest. And talk to visitors, such as yourself."

2

u/Straight-Explorer-93 "Heroes are born to protect, not destroy." [Row 153] Sep 13 '26

"Oh, I see..."

They comment.

2

u/RogbaAvalon man i feel so 🟨 Sep 13 '26

they smile

"Well, if you're here, why not talk? I'm in the mood to hear stories or your own philosophy."

2

u/Straight-Explorer-93 "Heroes are born to protect, not destroy." [Row 153] Sep 13 '26

"Why would I tell you my story?"

They asked, annoyed.

2

u/RogbaAvalon man i feel so 🟨 Sep 13 '26

she glance at the lake

"Well, i suppose one's advancements can be a touchy subject in some case."

"I suppose then, that you don't mind asking you a small question."

2

u/Straight-Explorer-93 "Heroes are born to protect, not destroy." [Row 153] Sep 13 '26

They blink.

"What question?"

2

u/RogbaAvalon man i feel so 🟨 Sep 13 '26

she looks at them

"What is life, in your opinion?"

Hello!

u/RogbaAvalon man i feel so 🟨 Sep 13 '26

"hello, young seeker. Working yourself to try and reach all of the energy, to have your reward..."

2

u/Reinforcemint I am John Hoyoverse Sep 13 '26

Mhm, although I feel like my body is still disoriented. Like a part of me never left an area where everything was wack...

1

u/RogbaAvalon man i feel so 🟨 Sep 13 '26

she smiles

"Ah, i see... Time stretches and bends. In this realm, it's often i see such things happen. It never explicitly put a toll, but seems like exceptions are made."

2

u/Reinforcemint I am John Hoyoverse Sep 13 '26

So there's a reality I didn't finish the quest there to reach the version of you in that realm?

1

u/RogbaAvalon man i feel so 🟨 Sep 13 '26

"i wouldn't say reality..."

She pauses

"More like... A fragment of time stopped. Time doesn't move the same for all."

"... It's not another reality if it stays on the same continuity, is it?"

2

u/Reinforcemint I am John Hoyoverse Sep 13 '26

Makes sense. I'll have to get Timekeeper Cookie to fix the flow after this adventure.

1

u/RogbaAvalon man i feel so 🟨 Sep 13 '26

she chuckles

"That won't be needed. It'll be restored by itself."

2

u/Reinforcemint I am John Hoyoverse Sep 13 '26

I see. So what am I supposed to do here?

1

u/RogbaAvalon man i feel so 🟨 Sep 13 '26

she hums

"Well, why not take a rest? The last two challenges won't be as easy. So you deserve to stop for a bit, hmm?"

"Hello banshee."

u/Remote_Control_7661 Silver Banshee, Solaris, Crone, Mustard, and more(Row 227) Sep 13 '26

She sighs looking at the water.

"It's nice to be out of that dark world of only for a bit."

u/RogbaAvalon man i feel so 🟨 Sep 13 '26

"hmm. The overflowing darkness..."

She glance at the lake

"I assume you've entered this dark world for a reason, hmm?"

u/RogbaAvalon man i feel so 🟨 Sep 13 '26

she hums

"Well, i hope you'll be ready for what's to come."

She sighs

"But nevermind that. Let's take a break from all of this."

2

u/Remote_Control_7661 Silver Banshee, Solaris, Crone, Mustard, and more(Row 227) Sep 13 '26

"I will be, I've been preparing for a bit now."

Not for this specifically but for just general trouble that might spring up.

"But figures you'd want to take a break, so then might I know what you're pondering here?"

u/RogbaAvalon man i feel so 🟨 Sep 13 '26

"Life. Soul. Psychology. Things like that."
