[Here's Luke, kneeling not too far from the edge of a cliff in the moonlight, just staring out at the distance. He's got his wig off tonight, and the long-sleeved jacket he was wearing when he showed up is on the ground next to him, revealing that his right arm is completely bandaged. But he's just staring quietly, on hand petting Mieu, who is resting in his lap.

He thinks no one will find him here. Feel free to prove him wrong.♥]

...Akzeriuth is... alright in your Auldrant?

It is. Van is dead, his cohorts taken care of, and the order is being reworked.

... I see...

It never ceases to amaze me how many of you are fools.

*turns, glancing back over his shoulder at him.* Try not to screw things up here, replica.

I don't really plan to be here too long... I need to get back...

...even if I shouldn't...

If you shouldn't, then don't bother. Your Asch probably has his hands full cleaning up your mistakes.

[flinches]

I'm supposed to be his extra eyes.

Hmm. I suppose if my replica can be useful, then even you can have your uses.

......

...

[turns to look out at the view towards the edge of the cliff again] It's easier here, though. Not hearing them saying those things anymore...

*gives a light snort, coming to stand behind him again.* Of course it's easier. The truth is a painful thing.

[soft, almost laugh] They... probably wanted me dead from the start. I'm... glad I could finally give them what they wanted.

*yanks on his hair, glaring.* You would be even more useless dead than you are alive, dreck.

[flinches, smiling sadly] That's why he only made it look like I'm dead. He could still use me... but everyone else got what they want.

Hmph. What they want doesn't matter. You aren't their replica.

...

I'm sure the other fools here will be happy to make you feel welcome.

...that doesn't... make any sense.

What part of it doesn't make sense?

Why would... why would anyone want to welcome me?

...

That I can not answer. I for one would place more blame in Van than in you, even if you are an idiot for trusting him.

[shakes his head] I-it was... my fault.

Being a fool does not make his plans your fault. It took even me years to thwart him.

I... I realized something was wrong, but I didn't... I didn't stop. I didn't even try...
