Solace of Nirvana (OOC + SU) [A branch off of the New Dawn.]

Is there still any room on this ?

 

Good news! SInce the site is up properly again, I can post!
Bad news! Rehearsal until late every day for the next two weeks! I'll post when I can!

EDIT: I'll try posting tomorrow. My schedule has an opening large enough, it looks, for me to form something worthwhile.

 

Guys what's going on. I don't know about you, but I'm losing interest(and I don't think I'm alone since we've all been lagging on posting in this thing versus from when we started it). There's nothing really going on, plus now we got all the weapons, and whatever else, I(and this may just be me) see this thing not going anywhere.

So I think we need to figure out what we're doing with this again or add some sort of zing to it.

 

Can I join ?

 

Well, I've got something amazing planned that will get this back into a moving plot-ness. Just give me a post.

No. It's closed.

 

Alright, because right now it's dry.

 

Well, it appears this is well and truly dead. So then, any of you three (Though I should say two since I know Des doesn't care anymore) what my plans were?

 

Due to Hope's rarity caused by real life, all we really have is to hear what all your plans were. I suppose at the very least it would give some of those "Oh I wished we finished this" type thought.

 

Well, first off, the attack on the castle would begin. The Elementals would be led into the castle and the hangar where the Behemoth lay by Ghira, as all the confiscated ships from the rebels led a distraction full-frontal assault on the castle. The keybladers, minus Vincent (who is busy making his way to the core of the Ark to power it up) would duel the Elementals in an attempt to give the machine time enough to power up. Ghira, naturally, would assist the elementals by this point, as this is the final battle. Eventually, some silver-hooded thing shows up and wrecks the place, attack Elemental and keyblader alike. Our protagonists would take that as an opportunity to flee inside the Ark. The machine gives pursuit, and Ghira stays back to hold it off. The Elementals and Vincent face off as the machine charges. He has the upper hand because all he has to do is defend, whereas the Elementals must focus on powering it down. But, the machine charges up - and Vincent presses the button.

And then nothing happens. And then Ghira comes from the hall, sword bared. Vincent will ask what the hell happened, but the resident artificer would just say the Behemoth was never meant to work as the Knights requested. It was ugly, and therefore Ghira had no qualms about destroying his own creation. Vincent tries to protest, but gets run through with the strange blade that Ghira had. The heart is harvested and pushed through a portal mechanism.

The artificer would go to explain that the Behemoth, in fact, does not harvest or even destroy hearts. It's just a prototype - a simple test run of a much larger project, designed to wipe out both the Knights and the resistance in one fell swoop. As he explains this, the door seals shut and the machine seems to power up in the reverse of the way it was before. Ghira would say one final thing to the group - that Gerik was so much like "her." Finally, his arms come apart slightly to reveal small hears stored in the middle of the forearm. His calves do the same. In other words, Ghira was machine all along, powered by hearts. And then, those hearts activate, surrounding him in an armor made of swirling, mixing darkness and light. He'd attack, not only matching the Elementals but beating them too. The door would unseal itself by way of explosion, the silver robed figure from earlier emerging and passing straight through the elementals and tackling Ghira. The hood falls - and reveals the figure to be Finch, but her eyes are now crystalline, mechanical, and synthetic. She says nothing, but summons a mass of blue mana and puts the Elementals into a blue sphere, strong enough to protect them from the impending explosion. And then the Behemoth detonates.

End of Act 1.

 

Sounds fun. And absolutely no explanation as to what any of those sudden questions are?

 

Which ones would those be?

And there was an Act II I had planned, but I don't feel the energy to recount it right now. Maybe later today.

 

Lots about Ghira. What is actual goal is (Or if it isn't anything beyond destroying the resistance and the knights, what caused him to have such a goal), who he was saying Gerik was similar to, what kind of machine he is.

And then what ever happened to Finch. And clearly if she was also double agenting everybody as well.

And obviously what Act II would be about.

 

So then. I was thinking we could just start from Act II to make it simple, if nobody has any problems with the summary to Act I on the previous page. I can write a summary for the entirety of act I myself if you guys have trouble remembering details.

 

So basically pick up after the Behemoth gets destroyed and Ghira reveals himself as everybody's enemy? Where does everybody end up at that point? Are they all separated and have to find each other or what?

 

If it's only a couple weeks, they'd probably be helping the remaining members of both forces to rebuild. If it's more than a month, they probably would have scattered to do their own thing.

 

I've been trying to get a chance to sit down to read through everything again, but I honestly haven't had much time, so if there's a chance for a summary (if not in Act II, but at least sent to me) I would appreciate it.

 

You'll have that summary when the thread goes up. Now, if Hope would actually become responsive to my messages, then we could get this rolling >_<

 

You DO realise that a VM is short for "visitor message", right?

Anyways, your thoughts on this?
