Dungeon Prowler : One Man Army

The stone chamber fell into an awkward silence, it took a while before Helios broke the silence with a rather bold statement that should have been thought of before.

"Do you mean to say that i can not see beyond our deaths because there is yet to be a future after the the event?" The statement put thinking frowns on all the hearts present, even Debauchery looked a bit perturbed and another bout of silence hit the room. During this time, Yunan and the kids had a confused expression and looked to Debauchery for clarification.

The silence was broken when the Black Fate shined a message for all to see "suicide" it read. Gasps filled the room and even a scoff from Mina was heard as if the thought itself was absurd. Yunan stood back up with a nudge from Reina and took back his seat on the table besides the hearts. He looked at the Helios and uttered a simple "explain" that had enough unquestionable authority in it.

" I reject the thought of suicide because those behind you are my murderers, i have seen it a million times, they murder all of us, that is when the dark haze of mana shrouds the world" the pure rage on Helios took Yunan by surprise. "Just explain all that we need to know, i would rather not cause the suicide of the hearts just to keep away from a mission in the far future" Yunan made his mind clear that information must be given.

"The future is not fixed, every decision changes the future no matter how small, some decisions have a negligible effect some are the difference between a thriving world and a dead one. That is why prophecy exists so that the harmful future can be changed. The orcs created me to ensure the most epic deaths they can get, it does not mean that you can change the future by acting against what you may think is hindering said future sometimes acting to stop a future only fixes it"

"Therefore we who see beyond the veil can see one possible future that has not been deleted or fixed, for example you throwing away the meteor that burned your hair would have never gotten you the spirit heart and that future where you having the spirit heart is deleted, you probably could not cleared the kobold nest and thus the dragon would have remained dormant, you would be weaker, poorer and much less lucky than you are today."

"The future is ever changing, but we oracles can pinpoint an event and see it in one of the possible futures, and the death of the hearts have never changed in the thousands of years i looked at it, no matter how many times i look it is the same and i can never see past the event"

"I support the Black Fate if what you are saying is true" Yunan responded to Helios "there is only one future where the hearts die and it requires the hands of Debauchery to accomplish, you also used a very peculiar word to describe the deaths at the hands of Debauchery, you called it murder, not killing, harvest, use, forge or any other word that might give a purpose to death, you chose murder, even you,someone who seeks death, are feeling bitter about those deaths"

"Why would Debauchery murder the hearts? How can they? Hephaestus made you eternal, if a host dies you just switch to a new one as for the damages, you can regain your powers just by waiting a few years. The only way for all of you to become mortal is that all of you chose to renounce your powers, dispersing them. If that was all then the worst that happens is a boost of mana for Tartarus to absorb. But one of you will use all of that mana to do something that even your deaths can not pay for, the event will be so big that even the death of the hearts can not stop it, something that can shroud the whole world in death so that even Tartarus can not clean it fast enough"

"Suicide, not by your own hands but suicide nonetheless, i bet if you wanted to see my own future for the next 1000 years you can, i can even promise you that you can see the future of the Black Fate for hundreds of thousands of years. You can see all the hearts live if you wanted to see it but death is only there when you want to see it"

Leol stood up at this moment "begging your pardon ladies and gentlemen there is an alternative but it is very hard to even think of" he turned to Leader and asked "Leader Mary may we know what is the prophecy that was delivered to you". Leader looked at her team and after a round of nods she stated that thrice accursed prophecy as if reading from a book.

"oh indulgent ones, wash your foggy path with blood, the blood of millions or the blood of four, it matters not, for when the hearts fall none shall live to lament, find the fate and break your own destiny. Murder is your sin, and murder you will, for the death of the four will bloody your hands. Pray for luck oh unfortunate souls, death is the only path you can walk." Leader sat down after she introduced the prophecy that Debauchery has avoided for years already.

Leol stood back up and cleared his throat "betrayal. someone will drain the hearts and only killing them might stop the weapon, that is what sir Helios sees every time, that is the murder both you and the other oracle agree on, however Debauchery has a choice, to either kill millions of people or stay passive and wait for the time they murder the four hearts."

"Another part of the prophecy i find very intriguing is that Debauchery has a foggy path, and they had to pray for luck, i think this is the part of the path that has fog in it, thanks to our lucky mascot i think I know who are the millions that have to die. The Supreme Cult".
