[RAVEN'S HEART GAME - SESSION ONE]



The first thing you hear is the sound of rain faintly hitting the exterior of the house. The soft pitter-patter is almost soothing, in a way, but it’s quickly followed up by rumbling thunder in the distance. You open your eyes, and for a second all you see is a flash of light--at first it seems like it’s lightning, but then you see something. A vision of a man dressed in rags, hunched over, waves of demonic power rolling over him. He howls, and something terrible starts to grow out of him: the bloody roots of a massive tree. An immense wave of panic hits you, and you can’t move, you can’t speak, you can’t breathe--

And then it’s over. It’s over. You’re fine.

The sound of rain returns. (This time it’s definitely soothing, compared to what you just saw.) You’re standing in the foyer of a mansion, a wide open living room in front of you. The door behind you is faintly ajar, leading outside.

You successfully climb one of the roots, running along it like gravity don't mean shit, and you leap towards Urizen/Mundus--but that spinning crystal blocks your attack.

[Urizen, Mundus...who is it? He wants to believe Urizen. He doesn't want to deal with Mundus.

The crystal makes him scoff, but fine. He just attacks it head on then. Powered up Yamato vs depowered Yamato clearly means...depowered Yamato will win, right??]

That's unfortunate for you, you'll die to nothing.

Despite Vergil's logic fail, the crystal does not repel Vergil's attack. It shatters, sending crystal shards everywhere, and the large hulking figure roars. It rises to its feet, more and more spiky tendrils rising from the ground, and then Nightmare shoots it with a laser from its eye. The ensuing explosion knocks it back down onto the throne, leaving it prone and open to an attack.

“YOU INSOLENT, WEAK...!”

Oh, do go on. Do I smell of treachery, like Sparda? How could a mere human defeat you? You know I've heard it all a thousand times.

[I'm you but stronger.

He smirks, absolutely, completely smug, and rushes in to strike at its heart. Or where one should be, anyway.]

The fight Urizen/Mundus puts up is pathetic compared to your strike--anything they could do crumbles in comparison. With a roar of defeat, the mass explodes in a massive spray of blood and viscera, coating every inch of you. The tendrils writhe and gradually slither back down to the ground. The golem lifts both arms in triumph and then disappears.

YOUR SCORE:
SSS!

[He smiles at Nightmare before it disappears.]

Good work.

[Nice nice nice, he feels so stylish. The coating of blood is obviously just proof of how awesome he did.

So guess he'll go wander around the rest of the house feeling badass until he's booted out. As far as he's concerned, his real work here is done.]
