Tartarus - Underworld Gate

Idia	*sniff, sob*

Idia	This is where I overblotted... I joined Ortho and aimed for the stars... Then I lost to fellow students... Haha... *sniff*

Idia	So much for "leave it to your big bro." It's you guys, my little brothers, who always end up helping me instead.

Idia	I'm pathetic... So pathetic... *sniff*

Ortho

The world needs saving. The world needs...you, Idia Shroud!

---

Idia	I've got no idea what's going on, but Ortho's turning to me for help. I have to get back... I have to get to him.

Ortho Phantom

Oh, have you finally woken up? It's a real shame, though, I gotta say... There's this one minor little detail that I think you're forgetting.

Idia

Huh?

Ortho Phantom

You should know better than anyone that the Underworld gate is one-way only.

Ortho Phantom

As the ruler of the Underworld, I can't just let souls travel willy-nilly back to the world they came from once they're in here. I got a reputation with the others to maintain, you know.

SFX	*Phantoms groan*

Idia	Whee hee hee...Ruler of the Underworld, huh? That's some title you're claiming. But are you sure YOU'RE not the one forgetting something, Ortho? You're cursed — or rather, blessed — to burn blot. And I have that same blessing.

*Idia's hair changes color*

Idia	Being in the Underworld is making me more powerful by the second. I'm feeling practically omnipotent and omniscient here!

Idia	*deep breath* Now to envision the strongest possible version of me...HAAAH!

*Idia overblots*

Ortho Phantom

Oho? You want to face me?

Idia	Time to teach my cheeky little brother... some respect for his elders!

Battle!

Tartarus - Underworld Gate

Ortho Phantom

Agh... I'm actually losing? In the Underworld? What's going on?! The blot... All of it is under Idy's control...

Idia	Boom, badda-boom, boom, boom! Hah!

Idia	Hah hah hah! Yielding already? Isn't it a little too soon to start QQing? You call yourself the ruler of the Underworld, yet that's the best you can do? Talk about creative liberties, amirite? You're like, an understudy at best. I think you better let a real pro take over the title.

Idia	As of this moment, the ruler of the Underworld is ME. AAAH HAH HAH!

Ortho Phantom

Grr...

Idia	HAAAH HAH HAH! Aaah hah hah...

Idia	*cough, cough* *huff* Right...

Idia	I can't just leave you down here to roleplay a ruler in the Underworld forever. That's another reason I can't idle here. ...I'm leaving now.

Idia	Game, set, match... Gate to the Underworld!

...Bye for now, Idy.

The entire cosmos awaits you.
