[ Tomorrow will be filled with the clang of swords and the sound of men falling; tomorrow will decide if they live or die. Though he hates unnecessary bloodshed, Ephraim can feel the battle lust in his blood singing to him.

Tonight is the calm before the storm. The morning is so close that all of his nerves are on fire. Waiting has always been the hardest part.

He approaches you and, depending on how close he is to you, either places a hand on your shoulder or stands a few feet away from you. ]

You should rest. You'll need all your energy for tomorrow.

[ Ephraim has never enjoyed social functions, but he makes an appearance at this one for duty's sake. After fifteen minutes, he's bored out of his mind, and, well, his time would be much better spent in the training yard. He takes a cursory glance at the room to see that no one is actively trying to speak to him (though he doesn't look very hard), then strolls to the back door.

When he reaches the exit, he sees that you're also slipping out and flashes you a bright smile. ]

Making your escape too?

[ Ephraim is engaged in a game of pickup soccer and accidentally kicks the ball at you / he is slightly intoxicated at a bar, overheard something you said and likes it, and proceeds to clap you soundly on the back / exams are next week, but Ephraim is skipping lecture and doing his best to convince you to do the same ]

[ It's the scene of a crime. Maybe you were the murderer. Maybe you're just at the wrong place at the wrong time. Doesn't matter, since Daryan's grilling you on what happened. He leans in intimidatingly close to you. ]

You! What happened here?

[ Detectives don't have a lot of free time, especially detectives who have a night gig as rock stars. Tonight, though, the band's exultant after playing a sold-out show. They're celebrating at an overpriced bar, and the high from being on stage hasn't worn off yet. The rest of the band is somewhere else in the bar, but Daryan is separated from them. It's not clear if you bumped into Daryan or he bumped into you. ]

[ A wandering traveler isn't that rare of a sight in any land, but something about this wandering traveler catches your eye. It's probably the sight of five full plates of food in front of him.

He doesn't notice you at first. He's too busy eating. ]

[ It's nighttime, somewhere far away from civilization. If you look up, you can see the light of millions of stars above you. Simon is lying on the ground, arms behind his head. There is a wistful smile on his face as he watches all these lights in the sky.

As he hears you approach, he doesn't look away from the stars, but he speaks to you as if talking to an old friend. ] It's wonderful, isn't it?

[ A myriad number of choices in life have led you and Simon both here, to this very moment. Human potential is infinite. Who knows what could happen?

[ You're mercenaries together. Whether you like Caellach or not, that's some sort of bond between you, however fragile, that's been forged by risking your lives on the same side. You just won a fight, and the heady taste of victory -- and gold -- is in the air.

This is the closest to genuine happiness Caellach can feel. ]

Come on. Let's get out of here and celebrate! These poor fools certainly can't.

[ He kicks at a body on the ground. ]

[ This is the afterlife. Everything you've done, all you've regretted -- all that is past. You and Caellach have struck up a conversation about your past lives. ]

Bah! I should have been king.
