Golden Age: Revival

"I wouldn't call it a castle, but yes. Why? Is that where we're heading?"

Arthur<If that is where Mordred was most recently, then it stands to reason that is where we should search first.>
===================================
Thiera<Excuse me, who is the doctor here?>
===================================
R"I'd really rather she didn't."

"Alright, then lets get going."

"I actually wanted to know about that sarcophagus, but that's helpful too. Also does someone want to do something about that snake?"

*As they're walking through the city streets, everyone is gawking at Arthur.*
==================================
R"I don't even know where it went. It's dark down here."

<I don't know shit about no sarcophagus.>

"I guess it's just a prop then. Anyone else have some questions they want to ask?"

Noctis thinks up a story about a cosplay convention, or LARPing, should anyone have any questions.

<NEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERDS!>

*Everyone looks at that guy. Someone whispers, "What the bloody fuck?"*
================================
R"How are you doing that?"

*Allina widens her eyes in an expression of horror at the thought of the snake crawling at their feet. She very slowly and robotically moves over to Taiyo and holds on to her arm, trembling.*

=====

*Ari rolls his eyes and sighs, nodding.*

Ari: <I'm s-sorry.>

Noct is confused, but keeps walking.

"You can get more of what you want with nice words and a gun then with just nice words. Although in this case, it's a sword. And I meant questions for these guys."

R"What the Hell are you babbling about?"

*Roatha also shines light out of his sword, revealing the snake climbing the shaft to the surface.*
=================================
<Also, jumping out of tall buildings is not recommended. It looks like you cracked your pelvis, broke a few ribs, & nicked a lung. With the relatively minor internal bleeding that comes with that. Of course, from that height, you really should have broken your neck, & ruptured a few vital organs.>
==================================
*They are eventually stopped by a police officer.*

<May I ask why you are carrying a sword in public?>

"You wanted to know how I could be so charasmatic. Anyone will start talking when your inches away from removing their head."

"It isn't a real sword," Noctis said, "He is in character, and we were on our way to a Role Play party."

<I see. Then you won't mind handing it over for me to inspect, then?>
==============================
<Don't project your own cowardice onto us!>

<You're the coward! You told him everything he wanted to know!>

<I did no such thing, & my arm is proof! You're the sell-out & the traitor!>

<You lying snake!>

"I'm not sure if it comes out of its scabbard actually," Noct said, using the shadows in the scabbard to grab hold of the sword keeping it in place.

Ari: <...The alternative wasn't better.>

"I guess we get going then. Unless somebody has a better idea."

*The cop checks it, & sure enough, it doesn't come loose.*

<Rather heavy for a fake weapon, isn't it?>
=============================
"""Not really, no."""
=============================
<You were using wind. I used fire. Rookie mistake.>

Noct shrugged, "I guess so... Why, are heavy fake weapons against the law or something?"

"Then I guess all that's left to do is ensure these two don't cause us any trouble."

*He looks over to Mimiru.*

"Preferably without breaking anything else."

<No need to get sassy.>

*He hands Arthur the sword back.*
==========================
N"What are they going to do? Limp over to the police station & tell them their hit targets beat them up in the pyramids?"

"They could just say they were attacked randomly. Or they report back to their boss hopefully forgetting they blabbed pretty much everything about them."

"Whatever do you mean officer?" Noct asked, sarcastic as fuck.

N"And we could not spend 4 hours sitting here arguing about this, but there's a difference between what we could do, what actually makes sense, & what we'll end up doing."
========================================
*He scowls at her & walks away.*
