[06] || [The Dark Lord] || [Open]

Characters: Ganondorf Dragmire and you.
Setting: The Lounge, Study Room and Music Floor. Any day during the event.
Format: Prose or action, will follow.
Summary: Ganondorf has spent a couple hundreds years in the tower. The now self-proclaimed "Dark Lord of Animus" (he has a big ego) looks pretty much the same. He is wiser, calmer yet more evil and more grumpy. He doesn't hide his evilness any more as a matter of fact. Basically, he's the same except in worse.
Warning: Always the same warnings with the one who holds the titles of Great Demon King and Great King of Evil back home. Made worse here as in this "alternate future" he's fully assuming the Godfather act he tried to pull in June. Meaning if there is something you need done, he most likely can do it. But beware of making a deal with The Evil...



Lounge (Floor 38)
From time to time, the King of Evil would use the 38th Floor as his throne room. After all this was the most fitting floor to do so and it was fairly easy to relax here. From the lounge he could easilly receive his allies to discuss with them and summon his minions to tell them what to do... Or meet unfortunate souls who would need his assistance and fall within his grasp. After a couple hundreds years, Ganondorf was one of those who knew the tower best and who could provide anyone whatever it was they desired. Nearly what they desired at least...

And unlike many of the eldest residents, his mind had not been destroyed by the tower. He didn't lose himself to the tower or if he did, he did not realize it. If anything, his conviction to escape and regain Hyrule had grown strengthened. And he was more convinced than ever of his eventual success.

Ganondorf would be sitting in the largest and most impressive sofa, wearing his royal clothes- Seemingly made of gold alongside the most precious tissues and fabrics in Hyrule. He was holding a fairly big and black book in hands, focusing on its content. As if it was not enough, he had some plate of delicious food within hand reach, most likely cooked from what could be found around in the tower. Standing to the sides of the sofa were what appeared to be two Gerudo Warriors. Of course, they were nothing more than illusions- His own shadows disguised as Gerudo through a spell he cast. Well if he was to stay here, he better made his environment as impressive and similar to home as possible.

Meanwhile the entrance of the floor was guarded by two Darknuts. They were not blocking the way, they were simply standing aside aside from the entrance and... Doing whatsoever nothing. If anything they looked like statue. Maybe they were merely empty armors? But they certainly would move and attack if any newcomers proved to be a threat.


Study Room (Floor 18)
It was a very well known fact by now that Ganondorf opposed the administrators in every possible way. Add to that, the Great King of Evil often tried to take over the tower and rule over all existence himself. Alas his attempts always ended in failure. More often than not it was the fault of the fools he used, but whoever was to blame the results were always the same. At this point, Ganondorf was not trying to take over the tower any more. No, now he was only trying to escape and revive Hyrule, so as to accomplish his dream. As he once escaped the Evil Realm and Flooded Hyrule...

However, the more time the Evil King spent in the tower, the more complicated his plans became. Each of his attempts were more organized, each more promising and always closer to success than the previous. So you would find Ganondorf in the study room, apparently working hard on his latest idea. There were many papers and parchments spread all over the tables- Some were maps he drew of the Tower and its floors, others were texts he had written in Ancient Hylian-- Some of the most important texts had even been written in Gerudo. Aside from those natives from Hyrule, no one could read them.

Meanwhile he was standing, writing things on a board. Once again, it was likely nobody could understand what he was writing. It looked like mathematics- Equations adorned of Hylian and Gerudo texts explaining what it was all about. Whatever it was Ganondorf planned, it was probably too complicated to be understood. God only knew if Ganondorf himself actually understood it. ... Well, he probably did.


Musical Floor (Floor 28)
Another thing that didn't change over the course of the years was the love the Evil King bore for all forms of art-- But more specifically, for music. In the early years he spent in the tower, Ganondorf would always play by himself, rarely caring enough to listen the others playing. By now though, he enjoyed listening to what the others played and sometimes even to what the room played by itself.

Today he would let the his shadows play a composition, one had had written and worked on long ago. Of course it was a tune people of the tower may have grown accustomed to by now, his very one music theme. This one was a remastered and orchestral version using most of the room's instruments. It was very good and Ganondorf enjoyed it-- However, he couldn't help but look unimpressed. They could have done better. Yes, a couple hundreds of years will make you very picky.

Later on, Ganondorf would play various tunse by himself on the pipe-organ, or listen to whoever would come to play in the music room.

Tohko would try to smash the crystal three more times before realizing that her efforts were in vain. All she could do now was try to cope and fight back against whatever this crystal would do.

However..she expected something like an electrical shock, poison gas, or something similar. She didn't quite expect to shrink with the crystal, and even though she knew she had it better than Alice, being like a lilliputian was pretty horrible when you were in a cage with a man that was built like a lion controlling said cage. Fighting in this case would be foolish, as it wouldn't do her any good. All she could do as the crystal floated above Ganon's hand was glare at him and yell her reply.

"How so? Are you going to squish me like a marshmallow or hide me somewhere and make me your pet? Or torture me and hold me ransom? That isn't going to help you!"

Tohko opened her mouth to say that she had imagination, since she was a book girl and that she could have picked any number of gruesome tortures-but then the pain started and she bit on her lip, holding back a cry of surprised and pain.

It felt horrible..almost like she was slowly bleeding to death with Nesir again, but she didn't cry out. She may have trembled a bit hither and thither and had trouble standing, but she forced herself not to cry out or actually cry. She wasn't going to give Ganon the satisfaction of hearing her cry. How long that would hold was anyone's guess.
tohko_amano: (gotcha now!)

As the physical pain slowly ended, Tohko sighed and blinked, trying to re-focus and deal with whatever Ganon would think of next.

And then she smelled smoke and..burning books. Looking up, she gazed in horror as the library-somehow, they had changed settings-was on fire. Dreams, hope, ideas, joy, pain, suffering, understanding were all ablaze and burning away.

The only thing that kept Tohko from screaming at Ganon or just in shock was the fact..that she thought this was an illusion. For one thing, Ganon, even though he was horrible, seemed a man of his world. He had already said he wasn't going to burn the books, so there was no way he would do something like that now. And the sudden change of scenery was odd, as she hadn't seen or heard Ganon use a spell or a transportation device.

And finally, Tohko didn't really trust her own senses much sometimes anymore, due to what the Administrators had done to her in December.

So, she just glared at Ganon angrily..and..smiled before reciting something.

"The smell of burning paper fills the air
And in Wonderland, somewhere, Alice screams
As the dog attacks her
Or as the Queen's men rush towards her
Yet, in the end, it was all a dream
And Alice woke up, with a grin on her face
This too, is all but an illusion
A momentary horror, a thing
That shan't last
So says the Book Girl
Who is not as foolish as you."

When the illusion faded and Tohko was freed from the crystal, she almost asked Ganon what he was about to do next.

But then she heard a cat meow and turned toward it. It..looked like Ganon was more than familiar with Alice in Wonderland. While that was nice, she didn't expect a scenario like this to pop out so quickly. Tohko turned back towards Ganon..and saw that he had vanished. Another one of his spells. However, she had bigger things to worry about, at the moment.

The cat had started to chase her, and she was as big as Alice was when she met the dog. Quickly, Tohko ran in a circle, and out of the room, with the cat in hot pursuit.

Normally, Tohko would have been able to easily outrun the kitten, but those steps were quite large as she was now, and that cat was quite fast. However, after the first few ledges, she figured out that while jumping from step to step hurt, it didn't break her legs.

Running, and occasionally taking a break in some of the safer rooms, Tohko eventually managed to lose the cat when she decided to jump in the seventh floors swimming pool. It took awhile, but, eventually, the cat decided to give up and skulk off, which got rid of one enemy and gave her some well-earned minutes to rest. This was actually torture, as far as Tohko was concerned. She managed to pull herself out of the pool, soaking wet, and head back to her dorm room.

Upon entering said dorm room, she was happy when she returned to her normal size..but a bit puzzled as to why Ganon had made this the spot where she would return to normal. At least, until she saw the note. Trying not to drip water everywhere, Tohko ate it, trying to get a feel for it.

"It's a bit bitter..with a light, sweet coating. I get the feeling that I've won the battle..but not the war."

She then sighed to herself and walked out, hoping to find a good place to dry off. She'd have to deal with this war when it actually came up. For now, other matters needed tending to. She'd deal with Santa later.
