For Thine Is; Part One

[animusmods]

Characters: anyone outside of the Tower
Setting: outside
Format: any
Summary: You have been transported out of the Tower, and you must return quickly.
Warnings: psychological horror

It's pitch black here, though the ground is made of dirt and the Tower gleaming in the distance provides at least a sign that light exists somewhere. It's completely silent. It feels as if things might jump out at you--but that's probably your imagination.

... That was rhetorical.

[ She sighed and shook her head. She agreed, but her concerns were with those who wouldn't agree. ]

As I do. However, I am more concerned for those who would not agree with us.

[ambassadorasshat]

Oh. Well...

[Okay, he actually has no decent retort for that. He'd still do it though.]

If they don't agree with us, we leave them behind, and they can choose whether or not they want to stick with their decision or change their minds.

[ What kind of foolish reasoning is that? Hilda is unimpressed. ]

... I am thankful you are no leader amongst us. I pray that you never be tasked with protecting the lives of others.

[ Her tone was glacial as she stated this, before she turned away from him. ]

[ambassadorasshat]

I'm not trying to be a leader, I'm just saying that I'm not going to try to convince anyone to go anywhere they don't want to.

[He's probably saying this to her back, but if she doesn't want to talk to him anymore, at least he sort of defended himself.]

[lorule]

[ And indeed, Hilda didn't reply and continued on her way off. She had had enough of foolishness for a day. ]
