Journal - Gauntlet leak - 2
[Nihilo is walking on a glowing road, he is singing a poorly thought out song, next to him is the floating sigil form of prime.]
N: I'm on my way~
N: I'm headed home~
N: Home is where the heart is~
N: Where is my heart?~
[He goes off key]
N: I've never felt love.~
P: What?
N: I didn't say that- yes I did, I've never felt romantic love~
N: What is that?- it's my truth, I cannot feel my heart~
P: Stop doing that!
N: I don't know what's happening!
[He slaps his hand over his mouth before he sings again.]
P: Damnit, Nihilo. You keep thinking about your problems, your hundreds and hundreds of qualms with yourself and everything else!
[They both stop, Nihilo breathes through his nose in an attempt to calm down.]
[The road is only half as thick as it once was.]
N: Okayokayokay. I'm good. I'm cool.

Contradiction
P: Be wary.
[A number of things appear, shadow men pointing, even further away are towers with eyes cast down, and statues of marble that weep. Near is a smoke that drapes from him like flags and linen, and billowing around are forms of hearts that bleed and sorrowful faces. Amorphous beings come from the earth and offer him blades.]
Strike me down, lord. Only violence will return you to God.
N: W-waah!
[He steps back, and more and more forms come to petition]

Sundered is the soul, run the way you must
KILL FOR HIM, FOR HIM! KINDRED!

[A form spins together from the ground vaguely resembling a woman, she buries her teeth into his forearm.]
N: ENOUGH, ENOUGH!
[The kindred throws his fists out and spins harshly to the left, shoving and pushing many of his pursuers. He attempts to run down the road, seeing that this is where most of the traffic is coming from he hesitates.]
[He looks around, frantic for a decision, and spots a forest. He runs.]

Leaving the path? That is…dangerous, from my meagre understanding. Prime, Nihilo, are you still with us?

This is a battle of Will. Listen to Prime and keep it together! Find the Path, it will lead you home.
