[You proceed deeper into the palace. The place seems to be completely empty. Your steps echo amongst the tall arches, and while there are torches, it seems to leave more shadows than it erases. There are doors along the way, but any further investigation will show that, well...they’re just painted onto the walls.]

[Huh.]

[Until you finally reach two large double doors. Those are indeed real.]

[It's locked.]

[ he can't say anything about the "as a whole" part, since he hasn't seen her much as a whole ]

What comes next?

I send ya off to Rage.

[Letting go of his hand to give him back his thermos.] Btw, you do have a sylladex.

[... well then. is there any sign of a key anywhere?]

[ takes the thermos from her ]

...What's that?

Magical storage system.

Now that you know it exists, the way to use it should pop up here. [Pokes his forehead.]

[Nope]

[... what if I just knock on the doors then?]

[No answer]

[ blinks at that poke, but sure enough ]

Oh.

[ and he'll dump that thermos into safe keeping, then ]

. . . Thank you.

[ gasp, shock, hold the surprise ]

[but I was supposed to go here]

Hello? Is there anyone here?

[She smiles and there's something sad, forlorn about it, but it's genuine.]

You're welcome.

Ready to go? It's gonna probs be an ordeal in Rage to, so you'll want to be prepared.

[Stiiiiill no answer.]

[okay.

... okay. going to go inspect the corridor itself for any clues, beyond the painted doors]

[There don't seem to be any. Sorry bro. ):]

[The painted doors are unnecessarily fancy though, like, omg, why be so fancy.]

[touches his hand to one of them... :|a]

I am.

[ not so overwhelmed from when he first touched the blood and has that energy back ]

As prepared as I can be, at least.

[ They are rare for Rook to have outside of being brainwashed into it. ]

This kind of world ... is the only one you've known, because of her. Nothing can change that, and only so much can ease it. It's just something that's part of you, that can't just disappear or be ignored.

[Unnecessarily fancy, but still just a painted door.]

[She nods and leans forward to kiss his forehead with cold lips.]

[You hate it.]

[It's not as if you don't understand. You know to Jane, it makes no sense, the things you tell her. She's centuries in the past, of course she wouldn't believe you when you tell her how you grew up.]

[About what you've lost.]

[Because to her, it hasn't happened.]

[But it hurts. It still hurts as she denies such basic facts of your life.]

[How she treats it like it doesn't exist.]

[And it feels like you don't exist]

Correct.

[She gestures for him to approach the throne as she sits up properly.]

[... erk.

goes back to the double doors and knocks a little harder on them]

[Still no answer.]

[well there HAS to be someone here]

Whoever is inside, please open the door.

[Nope. Sorry bro.]
