Once I finally got to Q’alabar, and ran into this guy.
Needless to say, I was pissed off. I died and lost some good $#!+@ trying to get here. And all because he lied??
I calmly told him how inappropriate a thing like that was for him to do, explaining all that I’d gone through in my journey to Q’alabar.
Needless to say, I proved him wrong.
He called me stupid for the next thirty minutes, as I tried to get back to Q’alabar, telling me that he’d tricked me into killing myself.
I think he was just upset that I was better than he’d thought.
After hopping the portal in the subway, I finally made it back. He was standing in the same spot, still mocking me with his @tells.
Oh yeah. NOW I remember where we’d left off…
Thinking to humor him, I looked at his level. What I saw astounded me.
He had surpassed my own power. He was more powerful than even me now.
I congratulated his accomplishment in the appropriate fashion.
I still stand by this reaction.
Then, yet again, he surprised me.
Actually, I *did *care. Damned if I was gonna let HIM know that though.
However, despite my stubborn attitude, Vishok always had a way of charming people into doing as he pleased.
I guess I’m just a sucker for a few kind words.
Well, I set him free. He thanked me and bid me farewell. I, on the otherhand, was left feeling empty and alone. Without a cause, and without a friend to give me more experience.
The worst of it all though? I never even got the chance to brag about my victory over the ursuin hordes!
