Interlude 1 Enter the Utopian Choir
Like a choir guided by an unparalleled desire their voices moved through the air as one chorus of collected judgement.
Inevitably all of the voices were outweighed by one of divine intervention.
???[I find the mindless squabbling of dim witted halfwits ineffectual. The path we all walk is one of clarity if we misplace and confuse our ambition for our narrow minded desires we will crumble to zero]
The words came from a towering shadow that engulfed the back of the room. More of a spiritual presence than a man.
The all seeing made the ludicrous decision to raise her palm. In his domain
The All Seeing {If i ma-}
The all seeing found a blade exiting from the back of the very palm she dared to raise.
???:[You do not have anything of profit to disclose to me in this consultation. utter anything more and i shall drape your front up the apex of my weapon]
8 figures remained around a volcano-like round table. There had been a total. There had been a total of 10 infernal chairs that resided around. However, one of them dismissed the call today. Another had chosen the direction of betrayal. And the final one had been long departed.
.
Enter the utopian choir.
Component 1 The leader
Component 2 The All seeing. a soulless woman. Who sported lustrous porcelain straight hair.The beauty had been decayed by a hundred glowing throbbing eyes. They arose down her entire husk. Decomposing her soft paper arms and legs. They engulfed it like a plague. Her face had a substantial single eye sprouting from her forehead. A hundred hidden eyes blended into her skin could be unleashed in a single moment. Running down her arms another gigantic eye was engrossed on the front and back of both her hands.
Component 3 The oppressor. He looks like he was trapped in the wrong century and old rusted gas mask that has gears engulfing it. A mixture of larger and smaller ones upon the top one eye looks like a wheel. The other looks like a target made from scraps. The bottom has yet another wheel. But a dark leather strap covers the bottom half like a mouth spike piercing out of it. On top the mask lays a steampunk vibed top hat matching his mask. It is covered in gears and clocks. He sports an old style golden leather jacket also covered in gears and clocks gold and black patterns running through it.
Component 4 The Cultist he was the same man kekkan saw back at his hideout. His face was concealed by shadow; he wore a long patchwork cloak made from different fabrics. With a stitched up white rabbit on the back.
The Cultist raised identical robes to the one he wore and placed them on the table. He then exclaimed with passion
The cultist]I have hand crafted these robes for all of the choir. It shows a sense of brotherhood that we can identify each other by]
Component 5 speaks
Component 5 [silence you fool these are childish gestures with no just reason behind them]
Component 5 The bull of the black sun. He was a dark bull whose eyes glowed like rubies. his horns stood up like lightning bolts, his mouth had been parted to the side he wore gladiator like attire.
The bull [ i am above this]
The cultist [oh well that is quite disappointing to hear. However we should get back to the topic before our heads are sawed off]
Component 6 adjusts her hair. A pale girl with beautiful flowing white hair and her pearly eyes engulfed the entire room. She wore a gown of a princess of blue and white stripes. She wore a black lipstick butterfly residing within her hair. And a red triangle like symbol carved into her forehead.
Unlike her comrades she didn't have a nickname, her name was simply Kyoeshin.
Kyoeshin [oh dont i look wonderful today]
Cultist [oh dont i love wonderful today] he spoke in a mimicking voice.
Kyoeshin [i have achieved more in a day then you have in your entire lifetime]
The cultist started placing his hands together in a mocking manner.
The seventh component just resided there but didn't speak unless necessary. This man was one of the most important of them all; he was the vessel. All he was is a man composed of shadow, a faceless husk.
Suddenly an authoritative shock was sent through the room. Each component shivered fearing for their lives.
Without the leader needing to open his mouth they knew what to do.
The cultist grasped his breath he could feel pounding on the inside of his neck.
The cultist [i am sorry leader back on topic, i have relayed the information to the young boy and the note has been passed on successfully if all goes well we should have enough time to commence the raid before he escapes the woods]
All seeing [according to my vision that I had implanted in all of the necessary areas. I have found that one of our own puppeteers has been pursuing the target using her creations and judgement. Slowing him down so he will not make it in time and that is why she is absent today]
Kyoeshin [just like I had planned the inferior has been summoned into the nightmare. The chains had been holding him back and he had been fragmented due to the sheer power of my remarkable ability. My feets are rather impressive]
The cultist scoffed at Kyoshin's words.
The all seeing begins rapidly shaking. Her fingertips could not be felt anymore and her eyes began to blink swiftly. She tapped the table and let out a sigh.
The all seeing [Leader i ask you forgive me but i failed to mention my vision had been shunned by an unknown adversary]
The bull [you fool with all that vision and you can't detect the interference]
The cultist [who else could possibly be there]
A sharp blade was then deeply sheathed in the table. From the corner a man emerged from the darkness.
He had hair that was a mixture of both red and black combining into one colour. It went down to his waist his entire skin gave a presence of molten lava although still being a normal white something about it felt demonic. His entire outfit consisted of molten rock coloured gear.
This was the final component. This was The villain.
The Villain [The only man capable of such deeds is my rival. The only man who could take me head on and survive could be more powerful then any of us here my polar opposite the Hero. If he crossed paths with the all seeing vision that probably means he wiped out all of the puppeteers' creations. And saved the target if that's the case then the raid may be a failure unless we find a way to subdue him for the time being. He is the biggest threat we have ever known.
