I re wrote this because the original ending of this relationship was too much of a side not and it deserved a proper finale...I hope my fans enjoy.
Only days after Defeating Nechronos Moonshaddow summons me to her palace aboard the massive ship her family calls home, The ship stretches farther than the eye can see some 48 million miles across and half as long,,,and awe inspiring sight to be sure...I dock in one of the millions of ports and shuttle to one of the 8 planets held within, On a small island rests her palace a place of beauty and splendor...but it will now and forever be a place where only pain lives for me. The servants see me inside and ask me to await Moonshaddow, which is new because they seldom speak to me at all. After a few minutes she enters the large sitting area in full regalia. I rush to hold her but she raises her hand and I stop dead in my tracks. Her face is sullen and instantly my heart sinks...and I know something bad is coming.
"What's wrong?" I ask hoping Imy instincts are wrong...but they seldom are.
"I need to talk to you about...us."
"What about us...is everything okay?"
"No things are not, I....I lied to you and I can't do it any more Please understand that I never meant to hurt you and I know your feelings are real."
"I sense a but coming."
"But I refuse to lead you on, regardless of what my Father's wishes are..."
"Your father!?! Gods be damned I knew it! I never wanted to believe it but since the day I found out the Black Mantis was your father I knew it was a setup. I asked you, and you said your business was your own. But it's not is it?"
Here eyes begin to tear as my words sting her heart, if anything at least there's some remorse.
"Why come clean now?"
"My father left me for dead, and you resurrected me, I can't just ignore that...it was the most selfless act anyone has ever performed for me in over 9,000 years. I tried to do as my father bid me but he has hardly shown me such compassion or loyalty. Still he is my father and an elder god and what he asks of me I find I cannot do."
"So that's it then? You won't fight for what we have?"
"I fear there is nothing left to fight for, but I won't lead you on and I won't let him have you. I release you from my service and I as much as it it breaks my heart I banish you. return to your life my love, know that there's a place in my heart that will never be complete without you and that I do this not because I don't care but because I care enough to not hand you to my father. He will be enraged when he discovers what I have done here but he will not harm me and will not harm you either."
"So that's it then...just like that?"
She turns away and with a wave of her hand I'm just me again. I hate when I'm right about things like this. It sems the only time my instincts serve me best is when it about something bad. I turn and walk away and a part of me is thankful that this is over...messing around with gods is difficult at best but...she'll always have a place in my heart...she was there when I really wasn't myself and when I really didn't like who I was, I can find solace in that at least I board MY ship and leave the Drake and it's crew in the docking bay, I want no more to do with the Black Mantis or any of his people...ever again. |
