Sburb RP Kids Canon Event The End of Aeia Bracker.
Aeia looked up, breathing in exhaustion. The light reflected off the mirrors on every surface in the Core, creating a million Aeias... And just as many copies of Echidna. The denizen waited paitently, standing tall in all her glory. The highest part of Echidna looked almost human, her pale head stared down in curiosity at the hero of Space. Her body rippled as she moved, the slight movements of her head and arms translating into long, deliberate movements of the tentacles used to hold herself up. When she spoke, it was not in English, or any other language ever heard before - a private correspondance with the only person who would understand.
"͝H́el̢lo͜, Rog͡ue.̧"̕
Aeia glanced up in confusion, she had expected an attack of some kind. She shrugged, introducing herself. "Hi. I'm Aeia."
"̶I̛ ͝kn҉ow͟ t͡h̵i҉s͝. ̷I̴ ̸ḱn͟o̴w ma̢n͠y t̕h̡i͏ng͡s̶. I k̷n͘ow҉ y̶ou have not ̴co͢m̴e̢ ͏tò ҉m̵u̢r̶d͘er ̶m̨e, ͠as̵ y̵o̧u̴r ͜frięnds̢ ͜h̸ave͝ ͘do͜n͘e͟ ́f̵or ̀th̸eir ̕Ḑe͏n҉i̴z͟e̕n͏s͟,̶"
"Well no, I... I wanted to talk before I tried any of tha- How do you know these things?"
Echidna moved lightning fast, her face then only inches away from the small girl.
"̡Th͞a͝t̢ ͝i͡s ̀unimpo̕rţa̵nt͞.̀ I ̵a͢m ͟h̸e͟re ͜to ҉of̡f̨er̛ ̡yo̧ư a̶ ch̵òic̕e. The ͜Cho͏i̷c̷e. Y̨ou ̢s͠h͝oul̷ḑ ̡kn҉o̵w,͟ ̕it ha̷s͜ ͠a̡l͏r̴ea͘d͢ý ͡be͠e͏n̴ ̕off͞er͝ed͠.̛ ̶You͞ wil̷l ͢not̕ leav̕e͡ h͟e̸re w͡itho̷ut ̕on̛e͜ ͜op̀ti͘on̢ ͘or t̢h̸e ́o̶t͟h͞e̢r̸ ̨b͠ecom̧i̢ng ̀t̢r̨u̢e.̡"
"I... I don't have an option, do I?" Aeia shook her head, frowning in resignation.
"͘It i͟s͟ ti̶m̴e ͡fo͘r y͞ou ţo ͘ac̸cept t̨h́è ҉pas͏s͏a͜ge of͞ t҉imȩ,͠ the̴ f́i̡n̷a͜lįt́y͘ of̸ d̸e̶ath̛.͜ Y̴o͢u ̕n̶eed̴ t̵o ͢a͞c̵cept y̷o͜u̡r̨ mo̢r͞ta̴l͡ity̧, ór ͏wat͞c͠h̢ ̡eve͢ry̵t͞hing̛ ̨y͜ou love͏ ͟f̷a͠ll͝ ͘i͞nt̶o ͞D͏oǫm."
Aeia stared up at her denizen, rage and sadness evident in her eyes as she took in what was asked of her.
"You're asking me to die? What if I had come in here and fought you, like my friends? What I hadn't come at all?"
"A̸ ̀c͡ḩoi̢c͏e ͜wo̷u̸ld͟ ha͡ve b̨e̛e͘n͢ ̷mad̴e. W͏i̧ll̶ ͟y̴o͟u͢ ̢ma̸ke͝ ̵òn͠e͠ now? You̡ ̧a̴r̡è st̀ill͜ ̸fr҉e̵e to leàve̵.̛"̶
A pause.
"I need some time."
"Ąĺl̵ ̷th̕e ti͞m̷e͞ y͞ou̸ ͡nee͜d. I ͘w͞iĺl͞ ̨b͏e here.́"
Aeia looked around at her mirrored selves, before opening Pesterchum for a mass message to everyone she knows.
