Episode:


A group of 5 men in total stepped off of a ship, each of them concealed by long, olive colored cloaks. After walking away from the port together each of the men gave each other silent nods before going their separate ways. The smallest man among them quickly stepped into an alleyway and threw his own cloak off after making sure that no one was currently watching him.

Roji turned around, grabbing his hair and tying it into a ponytail before patting his sides, making sure that his tonfa were still with him. Ever since the [dass]incident in Ilisia[cmt]I'm curious to know whether the incident being referred to here is the one from the News Coo or one from Roji's history.[/cmt][/dass], Roji always made sure that he was armed in some way when he was working, especially for a job as dangerous as this.

Roji and his comrades had ventured to Lvneel to investigate the Nox Pirates and their involvement with the Civil War that had taken place on the island. Despite never having been officially ordered to by the higher ups a revolutionary by the name of Mort was especially interested in going to Lvneel and assembled a team anyways.

Compared to the other team members Roji had little to no combat ability, only being recruited by Mort for his ability in espionage and amateur medical skills. Roji knew this full well and that fact made him the only member of the makeshift team that did not think it was a good idea to split up and search for the Nox Pirates alone. The young revolutionary argued with Mort that there was no good reason that he would put together a team and then go search on his own anyways but the man would not budge on his decision.

In Roji’s mind the only upside to being separated from the others was that they are all very likely to not want any dialogue with the pirates at all. Roji suspected that the only reason Mort had convinced the other men to follow him was that they were going to liberate Lvneel from the Nox Pirates control. Roji however has zero interest in fighting Castor or his crew even if they are corrupting the island. The young man is no idiot and reads the News Coo often enough to not make any drastic decisions, especially ones that involve pirates.

Finally stepping out of the alleyway, Roji took a look around the large street he was now walking down. Seeing a large building in the distance he decided it would be best to walk over that way, even if he could not tell what exactly the building was for due to being unfamiliar with Lvneels architecture.

A Change in Power


"AH. FREEDOM." Newport declared as he urinated in the alleyway, adjacent to the nearby pub which housed his drunkard activities.

Cherry-red cheeks highlighted the eye-patch-wearing thug's rugged face, a flurry of hiccups followed every thirty seconds or so.

You could smell the French Wine on the man's person, the stench of a man who hadn't bathed in days since the end of the civil war. His celebratory activities involved booze, prostitutes, and a keen sense of promiscuity.

However, this was the tale of most soldiers in the capital city of Asgar. After the King's untimely 'death' - some people mourned the end of the Montblanc era, and others waited to see what chaos would ensue with a notable pirate crew taking over the reign of the World Government ostracized country.

Oddly, it was peaceful. Queen Annabelle had yet to be announced as the official successor but Sir Bearington was using the family's political pull to keep order among the regions along with Castor's stable of Vana Knights.
Nox spent most of his days reading for eight hours at a time in the Castle's Grand Library, reliving what little of a childhood that he could recollect.

Memories of Jules bursting through the door to drag him to squire training, him and the former king falling asleep reading under sunlight that shone through the porcelain glass, or even him tackling books with words he couldn't quite yet understand.

"Argh. What kind of fooking King doesn't celebrate winning a war... No liquor. No women. He's just fooking reading books." Paris whispered.

"If it was me who was King I'd be consummated my marriage or out whoring... Something a bit more exciting!" Sully chimed in.

Annabelle's twin brothers murmured among each other as they peeped through the peephole of the library's main entrance. A loud thump on their dome from Bearington's animal-like hands ended their small stint in espionage.

"That's why neither of ya pups is King. I swear... If it wasn't for Annabelle... This family would be doomed. Get back to work and leave the Duke to his leisure." Sir Bearington ordered.

"The people should be receiving the good news soon." The Massive Retainer declared with a glow.

Streets of Asgar City


Flyer Notice wrote:'Castor O. Nox leader of the Nox Pirates has joined hands in matrimony with Annabelle Damne. As such Queen Damne of Nilf shall be the new successor as her husband recedes to the position of Duke of Lvneel.'

A banquet shall be held in the Castle's courtyard to commemorate the news. All are welcomed commoner and noble alike.'

As the flyers floated through the air, the people were left with more confusion than anything else. The Dame Household of - was supposed to be a new vassal family? The notorious North Blue Monster Pirate Captain known for his violence had fallen for a princess?

Meanwhile in The Throne Room


[ass="Slipped from past tense to present tense here."]Queen Annabelle's head is spinning with excitement and mostly anxiety.[/ass]

"Oh my. W-W-What should I wear?! Will the people receive me well?" The Queen thought to herself flustered.

As her ginger curls sat firmly beneath the crown, the vassals from the neighboring lands were gathered before the Queen to offer their allegiance and loyalty.

Roji had still only just begun his walk down the street before a multitude of strange papers rained down on the many citizens going about their day. Roji was so focused on watching the flyers fall that unnoticed to him, one of the papers had landed right on his head. Reaching for his head, Roji took hold of the paper and squinted at the paper.

“He’s getting married!? Well.. At least I know where to look now.” Roji quickly regained his composure after remembering that he was still in public.

Something did seem a little off about the whole thing to Roji. Of course he understood that this was most likely some type of political marriage, but he couldn’t quite figure out what Castor wanted to gain when, at least from Roji’s perspective, he and his crew had already taken control of the island.

Nevertheless the boy continued on. It took the revolutionary a little over 15 minutes to reach the castle and another 10 just to get through the doors due to the understandable amount of people that were interested in attending the banquet. After entering the castle Roji assumed that it would be easy to find the courtyard, especially because that is where almost everyone in the castle would be heading towards. Roji reasoned that the banquet would guarantee two things.

That a large percentage of the Castle's staff would be focusing their efforts around the Courtyard. And because of that it would easier for Roji to sneak around with fewer people in the area to spot him.

The young revolutionary also suspected that his comrades would have a similar idea. But due to the silence in the halls he had already passed through he guessed that one of three things had happened. They either jumped the gun and had already been defeated, had not shown up yet, or they are currently attending the banquet.

The remainder of the man’s sneaking was about as uneventful as it sounded. The few soldiers that guarded the smaller hallways that Roji had taken were not enough to spot him. Eventually though, Roji spotted a door that called to him in some way. Although he is not usually someone to succumb to curiosity he was perfectly content with whatever was beyond the door as long as it brought some excitement back into his mission.

[ass="Be careful about repeating certain phrases in close proximity."]With bated breath, Roji opened the door to see what possible wonders would lie beyond. But as he opened the door all he saw[/ass] were rows of bookshelves filled to the brim with an impressive variety of books that Roji had never seen back when he lived in Ilisia. Roji knew that he shouldn’t stay here too long but it had been such a long time since he had been in any sort of library and he was not going to let this opportunity to take some books slip through his fingers.

“I’ll just be here for five minutes, what could possibly go wrong?”

A Change in Power


Sir Bearington and his stooges tried to convince Castor into attending the banquet but the Duke wasn't swayed by food or drinks, at this stage, Castor was spending time with his first love - reading.

The guards around the property were more concerned about the festivities than securing the perimeter so the unknown signature shuffled towards the library Castor wondered who'd step through the door.

He'd left his weapons in his room, not like being weaponless made much of a difference in the terms of combat ability but at this stage, [ass="This comes off as a jarring leap in logic - kind of meta."]it'd be much more entertaining picking the brain of the stranger[/ass].

The black-haired man sporting a ponytail quietly shuffled into the library, as if he'd been trained in espionage - his steps were incredibly light. Between the kimono attire and dusty boots, the peculiarly dressed male wasn't a native or noble to Lvneel.

"If you're looking for the banquet, I guarantee you won't find any food here. Though, I have some pretty decent Rice Wine if you'd care for a glass." The Duke announced, flickering through the novel entitled - the Tales of Lvneel's Rulers.

[dass]Pointing his index finger[cmt]Your habit of using redundant terms continues. Saying "his index finger" was unnecessary here.[/cmt][/dass] to a table filled with a mountain of books, at its peak laid a gourd [ass="Poor word choice. Did you mean 'engraved' or 'etched'?"]tapered[/ass] with the words 'Plum' in Kanji made out of clay.

"I'm trying to figure out if you're brave or foolish to stumble into a royal's room unannounced." Castor concluded, not taking his eyes off the words on the page.

Meanwhile in the Queen's Chamber



The chambermaids busily worked on prepping the Queen's dress and make-up for the banquet that had started in the courtyard. The lanterns set up among the banquet area illuminated the rustic castle's once dreary appearance to that of a seemingly glowing monument.

Sir Bearington stood before the Queen kneeled, along with her brothers, waiting to escort the woman towards the courtyard. Just then, a procession of Revolutionaries stormed into the room, demanding an immediate audience with the Queen.

Roji snapped to attention after hearing a voice besides his own in the library. Turning his body, the revolutionary looked over and saw that there was another man in the library already reading. A brief sense of relief fell over Roji as he realized that there were no guards visible in the area despite the presence of another person. That was until the young revolutionary did a double take while walking closer to his fellow book enthusiast.

He was not just a regular man, he was the main target of their mission, Castor O. Nox.

Internally, Roji was currently panicking, He didn’t have much of a choice except to play along with the pirate. And while he did not detect any malice or bloodlust from Castor he was not too keen on taking any chances, Roji would prefer if both men stayed uninterested in fighting each other.

Red eyes followed the Castors fingers as he pointed to the mound of books, and the gourd that rested at the top. Walking up to the table Roji realized that he would prefer to not take a risk and climb up the books, fearing the possibility of himself falling down and getting hurt.

Roji reached for one of his tonfa and extended it fully before gently moving it under the gourd. After he felt that it was balanced well enough the young man lifted his arm slightly before retracting the tonfa back to its original length. Roji then flicked his wrist sending the gourd up into the air before falling into his left hand.

After retrieving the gourd Roji decided to make his way towards the table that Castor was seated at. Roji slid the gourd across the table before taking a seat himself.

“Well I wouldn’t say I’m particularly brave, But I’m also no fool. My name’s Roji, I’m a member of the New Revolutionary Army.”

A Change in Power


"You're a member of the NRA. Interesting." Castor declared, diverting his focus from the memoir for the first time to make eye contact with the tonfa-carrying freedom fighter.

"Roji. I go by the name of Castor O. Nox. I'm currently residing here as the Duke of Lvneel but true and true, I am a pirate. This nation was close to being infested by the government's clutches until I arrived. Albeit, I didn't exactly do it for selfless reasons." Castor explained to the rebel, signaling for him to toss the gourd after which smoothly slid in his direction in divine timing.

Reaching into the drawer, [ass=Jarring change in tense.]he'd[/ass] remove another Sake cup, twin to the red one Nox had already been drinking out of. Popping the screw from the gourd, the Librarian Monarch gracefully poured the rebel a drink and slid it in his direction.

"I won't jump to any conclusions as to why you're here however what I will say is this, it's in my best interest to make it appear as though Lvneel isn't directly under my control. I've seen what Kings have done to these people... They need a fresh start.

That being said. Whether it's the world Government or the Revolutionary Army... Lvneel has my full support."
Castor concluded his long-winded speech, subsequently emptying the spirits into his vessel and exclaiming 'AH' at the refreshing sting of the wine.

In the Throne Room, the revolutionary Mort and his henchmen presented themselves with an authoritative air before the Crown.

"My name is Mort Regalis. I am an acting Lieutenant of the New Revolutionary Army. I'm simply here to survey the island and see if the people are being oppressed or harmed in any way after we received news of a Pirate Captain's involvement in a Civil War." Mort declared proudly.

" However as I stroll through the Captial... I see no signs on the surface... However, I have a bone to pick with Castor O. Nox of the Nox Pirates whose to be your husband." Mort stated sternly.

[dass]"W-W-What is your business with my future betrothed?" Annabelle declared boldly[cmt]The "W-W-What" doesn't sound very "bold". Be sure that your dialogue actually reflects the intended tone (and vice versa).[/cmt][/dass], causing her chambermaids [dass]to form a slight fist of endearment towards the Queen's frank statement[cmt]I like what you're trying to say here, but the execution feels awkward. Here's an alternative:
...her boldness manifesting even in her chamber maids' tightening fists.
[/cmt][/dass].

"About a few months ago an incident occurred in the West Blue. A ship of slaves was liberated by the Nox Pirates but then were led directly into a conflict which ultimately resulted in one of our Commanders being captured.

Of course. This isn't Nox's fault but those same slaves relayed information about the conflict to us months later as we had spies among their ranks to discover well... That's classified information. The fact of the matter is - I demand to speak with Castor O. Nox immediately."
Mort demanded [dass]in a self-centric manner[cmt]You commonly use the "[Character] [said/demanded/etc] in a [adjective] manner" pattern of sentence. You usually don't need the "in a [adjective] manner" bit. It hurts your prose more often than it helps it.[/cmt][/dass]

Roji remained quiet throughout Castor’s explanation of what was truly happening on Lvneel. He did make a mental note of the pirates' mention of marines wanting control of the island but Roji decided to not ask too many questions.

“If what you are saying is true… It seems that some of our intel on you was mistaken. At the end of the day, people like us want the same thing. We want to be free to change the world, for better or worse. And if we happen to bring freedom to whoever deserves it along the way it's just an added bonus.

It wasn’t until Roji was done speaking that he took a sip of the sake for himself. Truthfully, the rebel could count the number of times that he drank on one hand, but in order to not send the wrong message to the pirate he drank anyways. Surprisingly, the sake was quite good, at least in comparison to the cheap beer and vodka that his friends in the NRA would drink nightly.

Putting the sake back down, Roji looked back up towards Castor and began talking again,

“To be honest I am quite surprised that you were willing to talk to me, a complete stranger. [ass=I wonder which pirates he's referring to. Lmao.]Most pirates that I have had the pleasure of meeting in this Blue have been nothing but savages.[/ass]”



Front of the Castle

A group of bloodied men could be seen with varying degrees of injuries, from simple cuts and bruises to broken bones and missing teeth. While a civilian or two did try and help, most of the common folk simply tried to ignore what was happening.

The opening of a pub door caused the whispering on the road to abruptly end. A hulking, eight foot tall man exited the building, flanked by a guard on each side. One of the more alert men on the ground spoke up upon seeing the large, orange haired man walk by,

“Boss Kernel, we tried I swear, Those guys came out of nowhere, said they were revolutionaries or some shit”

The boss lifted the grunt back to his feet and continued on his way towards the castle. While walking, Kernel looked over his shoulder to make eye contact with the peon.

"Well come on, I need you to point out who did this to our boys.”

The pirate laughed eccentrically. "[dass]I am quite the savage myself. Probably the most brutal in this sea, I've taken lives to sit quietly in this room with these books.[cmt]Intense self-succing detected. I wonder if Castor realizes how much he sounds like a third-rate thug when he says things like this. LOL[/cmt][/dass]" Nox decreed.

Finally, someone who understood his ideas on freedom. Whether it is chaos or peace, Nox's ideals lie in adapting to both with an open mind. Violence when tempered can be efficient in resolving disputes and in other scenarios exacerbate the issue at hand.

"If there's one statement it'd venture to disagree with my new friend - is the issue of change. I don't believe change is something accomplished by individuals but collective. That's what I am on these seas looking for.

People with goals - big or small. Using or letting them use me for their gains. [ass=Unnecessary. Your previous statement already accounts for the vice versa] And Vice Versa[/ass]. That's the what the Nox Pirates are about. Everyone on my crew has some kind of hidden agenda. That's the thrill of it all. My pride consumes me to see it through to the end."
Nox concluded, becoming indulgent in long-winded speeches - [ass=Let's be real. He doesn't need to be drunk to go on a long-winded speech. He just needs to be breathing to do so.]blame it all on the spirits[/ass].

The sound of rustle in the Throne room was picked up by Castor's Goro Goro Radar.

"Seems my wife needs some assistance." Castor stated, polishing off another glass of Sake before rising from feet into a stretch. The man's third eye that was once hidden behind the bangs of the jet black hair would now be in plain view as he'd yawn into the extension.

"Looks like some of your associates are in my Throne Room harassing my wife-to-be. Care to take a stroll with me, Mr.Roji?" Castor declared with a broad menacing smile on his face.




Meanwhile in the Throne Room

"You have a lot of balls lad. Not only do you barge in here and demand an audience on our Queen's coronation day. You accuse our hero the Azure Pheasant of participating in the slave trade?! Preposterous." Bearington barked in a fit of rage.

"If he's innocent, he can proclaim such on record until then, I have nothing more to say, I have no choice." Mort declared scratching his head in disapproval. "[dass]I've laced this entire room with explosives timed to this detonator in my jacket pocket[cmt]This man is an insane terrorist. The NRA would never condone this kind of behaviour. I hope it's a bluff or this guy better be dismissed afterwards if the brass finds out what he did.[/cmt][/dass]." Mort exclaimed, removing the controller from his breast pocket and taunting the Queen's guard with it.

Roji continued to drink while Castor talked. It was not that he was enjoying the act of drinking for the sake of it, but the liquid courage that it gave him was definitely worth it. Just when Roji was going to keep the conversation going Castor noticed a disturbance in the Throne Room. Of course his comrades had to be involved. The only thing more ridiculous was the fact that the drinking was the only thing not making Roji want to throw up after hearing the new information.

Pushing himself out of his seat Roji finished off his sake and set the cup back down. After a quick stretch he made his way over to follow Castor towards the Throne Room.

“Just so you know, these guys are usually kind of stupid. But who knows, there are a lot of ways to make people see reason.”

Roji flashed a wide smile of his own. although the revolutionary's smile seemed genuine it was like he knew that his wording could come off as a suggestion of violence.  

Somewhere in the Castle

Kernel was lost in the castle. He didn’t want to admit it, but either he was going in circles or some other group had already dealt with the guardsmen in the area. He also did not know where his two guards had gone. Not that it mattered too much, they would be fine on their own.

At least he still had the other grunt with him, albeit he had passed out shortly after entering the castle. But hey, he still had a third of the men who had come into the castle with him, so that had to count for something.

As Kernel rounded a corner he heard some shouting down a long hallway. Not wanting to waste any time he picked up the pace, tightening his hold on his single soldier, who was still asleep. He was not entirely sure who was down the hall or what was going on, but he was resolved to avenge his men.

A Change in Power


Castor admired the man's grit, his prior statement could've surely been taken as a threat but Roji remained composed and agreed to follow along with a smirk of his own.

Walking over to the solid stone wall to the North of the library, a portrait of modern Lvneel hung candidly between two bookcases.

"This Castle is several centuries of Royalty pouring their wealth into buildings such as this one. Comes with a few nifty perks I learned." Castor declared, extending his hand outward to touch the architecture.

His fingers sunk into the surface of the first brick, then another horizontally about two or three paces east, and finally one last stone directly adjacent. The mechanized wall then trembled from the turning gears, revealing a hidden passageway that descended to an underground roadway.

[dass]Generating electricity at the top of his index finger, Castor acted as a human lantern of sorts, illuminating the path ahead.[cmt]You could use opportunities like this to really paint a cool scene. It would be a good place to "show" rather than just "tell". For example, this ability use could've written in such a way:
Castor lifted an index finger like a torch and let sparks fly. The brief but repeating flashes of light illuminated the murky stairs leading downwards. Each step was a gamble, one in the dark and one in the blinding light. Their shadows flickered on the walls, too, dancing a duel that mimicked their ongoing battle of wits.
Adding imagery when using your powers can make them so much more appealing. I'm not saying you should do it all the time, but it's better than trying to describe it in a bland way.[/cmt][/dass]

"Many of Lvneel's King throughout the decades used these routes to avoid [ass=I think you mean persecutors. But, kings running from lawyers is also funny to imagine. Lmao.]prosecutors[/ass] and invaders during war times." Castor explained, continuing down the winding staircase.

Cobwebs and archaic statues acted as decor for the dusty pathway ahead. "As you can see, some people even had their final moments here." Castor stated, pointing at about a dozen or so skeletons riddled with what seemed to be broken arrowhead shafts.

Finally reaching the bottom of the staircase, a spacious cavern with several entrances stared the adventures eye to eye. Titling his head west, [ass=Man, Castor has really turned into a Gary Stu]Castor knew the routes by heart, after only really discovering the charts in the library a few days ago[/ass].

"Whether it's on land or sea... [ass=And a cocky one at that.]Most maps I've memorized in about a few hours.[/ass] When I discovered the caverns below this Castle... I wished I'd known before... Would've come in handy when I wanted to cut the head of the King off." Nox chuckled, quite eerily.

After traveling west for some time, another set of stairs came into sight.





"E-E-Explosives!" Annabelle exclaimed, her head spinning at the idea of being blown up the day before her wedding. [dass]The fact that her mind even wandered to thoughts about matrimony in moments like these showed that her priorities were way off.[cmt]Another prime example of where showing would be better rather than telling. You could've had her be busy doing something to prepare for the wedding and have her subconsciously keep doing it.[/cmt][/dass]

Resting his hand on the hilt of his blade, "I don't think you understand where you are lad. These halls were built far before ya' mums were being piped out to eventually push out yer' ass. I'll cut you down before you even get to try such treason." Bearington declared.

The bloodlust from Sir Bearington actually froze Mort momentarily in his position but snapping back to reality, Mort simply continued with the threat. The two twin boys were also shaking in their boots at the idea of being blown to smithereens.

"Like I said. I won't have to use them once Nox is summoned." Mort reiterated.

"Well let's not delay the conversation any further shall we." Castor's voice echoed through the whole room. Next to the Throne, a small compartment opened, sizable enough that the average human could escape.

Climbing through the hole in the ground, [ass=Abrupt change in tense.]Castor is now at the steps[/ass] leading to the Throne itself. As soon as Roji's face was registered, Mort barked orders at the Revolutionary Army soldier.

"Why are you walking around carefree with the target?! Subdue him, Roji!" Mort shouted.

"If it's me you want... We could have this conversation in much more luxurious settings. I'm not quite in the mood for squabbles - though I am irritated my reading time has been cut by this fiasco." Castor responded.

"Nox!" Annabelle declared with tears in her eyes and a puppy dog-like whimper. Running his hand through the Queen's ginger hair, Nox pets her with similar energy to that of a master showing affection to his pet feline.

Roji watched Castor in awe as the secret door opened, revealing a passageway in the castle. When the revolutionary entered the door with his pirate friend it was dark, to the point where he had trouble seeing, especially after being in the bright, warm light of the library.

Blue light appeared from Nox’s finger, showing the way forward. Roji remained quiet as the duo trekked through the passageways. His silence was out of a mix of respect for Castor and his desire to learn more about the area, and who could be a better teacher than someone clearly invested and entrenched in the country's history.

Upon seeing the skeletonized bodies of former rulers the rebel could only hope that he did not meet a similar fate in the castle. Luckily Roji had a feeling that he was currently betting on the winning horse by becoming friends with Castor. Well, as close as friends could be if they met only a couple of minutes ago.

Roji’s mind wandered to the situation in the throne room. He had no clue of how he could even resolve the issue that Mort solved without violence. The freedom fighter’s bravado from earlier had been mostly a bluff. While it was true that Mort and his friends were stupid he didn’t think roughing them up a bit would stop them anyways. Roji had to be prepared to kill if need be. And even if he did kill Mort, what harm would it really be? Mort has already gone rogue and will sully the NRA’s name if he kills the royalty of a free country. Roji knew all of this to be true, but he still felt wrong trying to rationalize it.

Roji cracked his knuckles while following Castor out of the passage and into the Throne Room. His attempt to remain stoic failed when Mort began barking orders at the revolutionary.

“You know what? Mort you’ve really lost it haven’t you? You planted bombs in the castle of a free country WHILE Royalty was inside?”

Roji continued his taunting by drawing his two tonfa, spinning them about and motioning for any challengers to step towards him.

“I’m done taking orders from you, The New Revolutionary Army might even thank me once you’re gone.”

Kernel's Perspective

His running was now fast enough to wake up the grunt that he had on his left shoulder. Kernel had so much tunnel vision that he did not respond to whatever kind of question his subordinate asked him.

Reaching for big doors with his free hand the boss got into the Throne Room. Kernel slid a couple of feet before stopping. A moment of recovery passed for the nameless grunt before he looked up and pointed right at Mort.

“Boss! That’s the guy who hurt us all!”

Kernel glared right at Mort, ignoring everyone else in the room.

“What’s your name jackass? You thought you could get away with messing with my boys?

A Change in Power


Reaching into his coat jacket, Mort revealed a controller with a red button at its center.

" None of this is relevant to me. All of your lives are in my hands right now. Nox! Answer my question. The slaves you took to the conflict in the West Blue... There was a woman among them... Her name was Caroline-"

As Mort was describing the woman in question, Nox titled his head to the side in confusion.

"Does a butcher give names to the animals he slaughters? I can't even begin to remember the face of one particular human. They were quite a few frightened faces among the lot." Castor exclaimed nonchalantly in an attempt to antagonize Mort.

A grim expression took over Mort's face, without hesitation, the man expanded his eyes widely and geared to squeeze the detonator with immense venom. However, what happened was Mort's hand went flying sky-bound, causing blood to shoot from the man's arm like a hose.

In the aftermath, all that was seen by those who could pick the motion was Castor drawing Zaigo from behind the throne and severing the Revolutionary's wrist in one swift motion. Before Mort knew it, Castor now stood inches behind his current location, catching the falling severed hand.

Prying the detonator from the limp appendage, Castor grinned as he'd short circuit the device with a surge of electricity.

"I guess it's time to restore a bit of order to this room." Castor declared, the aura from his eyes glowing almost crimson red. Sitting at her position on the Throne with a face flushed red, Annabelle looked on in amazement at her fiancee's display.

Swinging Zaigo around in his free arm and resting it's back on his shoulder, Castor looked over at the grunts who barged into the room, along with the other revolutionaries who accompanied Mort.

"This room is sacred. I'll give you thirty seconds to get out of my sight before I begin to behead the lot of you." Nox declared, slightly playing the role of a maniacal monarch, honestly, he'd just want them all to leave so he could continue his hermit-like retreat in the library.

Ripping his jacket into pieces, Mort fashioned the fabric around the gushing wound - using his now tattered garb as a bandaid. Removing three sticks of dynamite, gripping them between the crevices of his only eligible arm, with almost a flicker of the hand in a magic trick-like movement, Mort tossed the dynamite over his shoulder in an attempt to blow the pirate captain to pieces.

Lunging forward in a crazed manner, Mort created distance between himself and Nox, and almost instantly, the explosion encapsulated the area where the Duke currently stood.

"My Lord!" Bearrington and Annabelle almost shouted with the same timing. As the flume of smoke engulfed the area, the shockwave from the explosives sent the surrounding players scattering like a tumbleweed in a sandstorm.

However as the black smog cleared, Castor stood unphased at the core of the explosion site. Entering into his intangible state, the Logia user was unharmed by the volatile kinetic energy.

Pieces of Castor's distorted electrical body flickered in the wake, as it slowly reformed to its original solid state. His three eyes glared into the distance locking onto Mort's new position.

Sully and Paris acted as shields blocking any flying shrapnel or debris from hitting their sister who sat firmly on the Throne curled up in a ball, immensely worried about Nox's condition.

"M-M-Monster." Mort stuttered.

"Gashi Gashi... Yeah Yeah. Tell me something new." Castor declared with a mischievous grin.

Roji was very offended by Mort’s lack of a response to his betrayal. Sure, Roji and Mort both knew that he would not be able to really defeat him. But it is a really big deal for the usually meek revolutionary to stand up for himself. But with the fact that his former leader was now missing a hand and the majority of his pride, Roji assumed that Mort would know that the mutiny in his team was the least of his worries.

Most people would have thought that things were looking pretty good for Roji at this moment. They would be sorely mistaken. Despite Mort’s injuries he was still hell bent on blowing the throne room to pieces. Roji watched in horror as his former leader lobbed more dynamite towards Castor, and by extension, himself.

In situations like the one that Roji was put in there are two choices, fight or flight. And like the smart young man that Roji was he picked the most obvious one, getting the fuck out of there.

With a quick look over towards Castor, Roji officially passed the buck over to the pirate.

“I think you should handle this one!”

Even running at full speed, the blast from the dynamite was strong enough to send the revolutionary across the spacious room. Roji landed on his back and slid on the floor until he hit one of the walls. He took a couple of seconds to catch his breath before standing up and recovering his tonfas that had rolled nearby.

After reaching for the second tonfa Roji was met with an unexpected greeting.

“You bastard!”

A large fist connected with Roji’s abdomen directly following those kind words. Causing the ex-revolutionary to once again fall over, although this time he had gotten ahold of his attackers arm, causing them both to smack into the floor. Both men scrambled to their feet and readied themselves again. Roji made eye contact with the orange haired man and became even more confused and terrified.

“Kernel!? I thought you died back in the West Blue! What happened to you?”

Kernel ripped off his tattered shirt and let out a hearty laugh.

“What happened to me? What about you!? You left me for dead back in Ilisia. We were brothers, yet you didn’t spare any time coming to save me!”

Roji attempted to interrupt his long lost comrade, but was ignored.

“You’re even hiding our family's brilliant orange hair. I’m gonna make this right Cousin, after I defeat you I’ll head on over and kill your dumbass leader for corrupting you further.”

Realizing that words would be lost on his cousin. Roji made an attempt to strengthen what little resolve he had left and readied himself for the coming battle.

Extending his leg in a whip-like fashion, Nox launched the New Revolutionary Lieutenant through the Throne Room's window with a powerful blow to his mid-section. A loud thud could've been heard as contact was made, similar to that of a tennis racket volleying the trademark mint-green orb.

"It seems we've somehow ended up as allies, Roji. I'll leave the rest in here to you." Castor stated, tilting his head to ensure direct eye contact. It was as if he'd been [ass=Seems pretty verbal to me.]petitioning Roji to some kind of non-verbal agreement[/ass].

"Bearington. Get the Queen to safety." Castor ordered, launching himself off in a bolt-like fashion through the shattered glass into the courtyard.

The whole area was filled with long oak dining room tables each cloaked in white silk [ass=Not 'like a tablecloth'. It literally is a tablecloth.]like a tablecloth[/ass]. At their center, golden plates and goblets decorated with a plethora of wax fruits nestled: wine, ale, and an assortment of liquors for the banquet ahead.

Dim lights in the distance lit the courtyard in a warm hue, a scene that sparked something within Mort's being. The festive nature made him reminisce about days when his sister's smile was the only light he needed in this pitch-black world.

However, upon hearing the explosion in the Throne Room and seeing the flying body that subsequently followed, many of the staff prepping for the banquet exited the area.

"If only... my sister could've seen settings like this. Yet. Corrupt monsters like you live." Mort murmured to himself in a crazed manner, reaching into his sailor's jacket for several smaller sticks of dynamite.

"Ah. I see. One of your loved ones happened to be on that slave ship in the West Blue?" Nox inquire nonchalantly, cleaning his canal of earwax.

Upset from the cold and harsh tone of Castor's words, Mort flung the now lit dynamite in a manner that surrounded Castor. Harking Zaigo's touch once again, with precise swings, Nox severed the sparkling wicks from the dynamite sticks.

As the invalid tubes fell to the ground, Mort coated his arms in a black armament and began swinging wild hooks towards Castor's midsection. After the first strike, Cator decided not to step away, allowing the man to empty his frustrations on him.

"Will this bring back your beloved one? Will hurting me bring you some kind of joy?" Nox inquired, blood gushing into his mouth from gritting his teeth.

From beneath Castor's kimono, three metal pipes seemingly conducted by a magnetic pull pierced Mort's shoulder and expanded into elongated black pipes. A high voltage electrical current surged through the man's body, causing the revolutionary to fall to his knees.

"I'm on the other side of what you're feeling. My death won't bring your loved one back nor will it fill that emptiness you feel. It just lives within you and the emptiness becomes almost like a black hole." Nox elaborated.

"How could you possibly understand how I feel!? Huh! Nox!?" Mort shouted, stuttering throughout the sentence [ass=Unnecessary expansion.]due to his nervous system being shot by the electrical blast[/ass].

In the spaces between Kernel and Roji’s clashes. The young turncoat whipped his head to the side to better hear Castor. Roji cracked a slight smile and nodded his head in response while jumping away from Kernel, moving towards the center of the Throne Room.

“Very well, I will deal with the rest of these fools.”

Roji looked around the room and looked at what opponents were left in the room, but the few men that Mort had brought with him were spread across the room seemingly unconscious. Roji’s stomach dropped when he spun and looked in the general vicinity of where Kernel should have been, only to notice that he was no longer there.

“Not fast enough!”

Roji was smacked with a powerful clothesline, knocking him down. The ex-revolutionary rolled back to his feet before holstering his tonfa. With a gleam in his eyes Roji reached into his pocket and threw a makeshift bomb, filled with sand.

Kernel screamed in mild annoyance and anger from his younger cousin's trickery, “You think this is some sort of game? Fight me head on like a man!” Roji took full advantage of the situation, jumping up and throwing all of his weight into a mighty left haymaker. Roji’s fist connected directly into Kernel's face, causing him to take a couple of steps back to maintain his balance. While dropping back down to the ground, Roji elbowed Kernel right in the liver, knocking the wind out of him.

When he landed, Roji wasted no time in running away. Once he had gained enough distance to not be within striking range he turned around and saw Kernel getting rid of the last bit of sand in his eyes. The orange haired man locked eyes with his cousin, now looking more irritated than enraged.

“And why did Nox call you Roji? You’ve even thrown away your given name? Did our family mean nothing to you!?”

Ilisia, November 1828

Roji ran from the base's infirmary, His goal to obtain files the NRA needed had failed and his cover was blown. He had no clue when the marines figured it out or who would have told them but he sure as hell had an idea of what would happen to him if he was captured here.

He was currently hidden inside of a supply closet. Just outside he could hear the many boots of soldiers searching the premises. He had arrived a couple of hours ago with his father and two of his cousins. Roji had no idea where they had ended up after he had fled the scene. Of the four, Roji and his cousins had attempted to run away while his father stayed and most likely spoke with the soldiers.

Roji knew his father would be okay with his local status and kind nature, but his cousins had no connections to the NRA and were now guilty by association and through their own disobedience to the Marines. When Roji heard the searching grow farther away he opened the door and decided to search for his family before making his escape. He crept down the h-

Lvneel, Early February of 1829

Roji snapped back to attention when he saw Kernel lunge forwards, making an attempt to use his superior size to tackle his smaller cousin. Roji sidestepped the simple attack and dropped into a defensive stance.

“Not gonna let me reminisce that easily huh? I guess we’ll finish this first before we go down memory lane.”

The Heart's of Men


"I've been where you are... overwhelmed by anger." Castor explained, manipulating the metal spikes in Mort's shoulder to swell by absorbing an electrical discharge from Nox.

Emerging from the shrimp's shoulder, a silhouette made of lightning formed around Castor's back. A kabuki-shaped warrior carrying a bow and arrow appeared, firing three electrical shots toward Mort's body using it as an archery bullseye.

"My sister was a missionary in the West Blue. She'd go around from island to island on a pilgrimage for the less fortunate. Such a kind kid. After I found out the vessel she was aboard was hijacked by Slave Traders - my heart sunk." Mort explained.

Picking himself up off his knees, Mort began to rip about the black metallic slabs on his shoulder. One by one, the sound of the metal clanking against the ground brought the man immense joy. It'd been a while since he'd let loose against anyone.

Tossing a tiny sphere towards Nox's direction, the swordsman sliced the ball in half only to release it as a miniaturized smoke bomb. Vision clouded, Castor activated his Kenbunshoku to pinpoint Mort's location.

However, another body blow to Nox's mid-section caused the Imp to buckle for the first time in this entire fight. Leaning on Mort's arm as a crutch, the revolutionary tossed Castor into the ground with a swift flicker of his arm.

"Ugh... I'm still injured from the war... I don't think I'll be able to take much more of his hooks." Castor thought to himself panting. "I'll have to psyche him out of this conflict..." Nox's thoughts continued.

"My mother was kidnapped by slavers... My father stood there and watched as she was taken by her new handlers. I killed him with these own bloodied hands of mine... Still nothing. Revenge is worthless, Mort." Nox declared, clutching his mid-section from the accumulated damage up to this point.

As the lanterns glowed in the distance, Mort and Castor exchanged a series of Busoshoku Haki-coated strikes causing the air around them to become very thin. As both of them now began to pant heavily, their movements slowed - a lethargic breathing pattern developed.
