Alacreus is running, jumping, and bouncing around them at intense speeds, and Lonely is apologizing while trying and failing to stop Alacreus.
"oh hey Lonely, I'm sorry about what happened last time."
“Apology not accepted! You are a terrible human being!” They yell, jumping up and down to try and catch their dog who is literally moving at the speed of sound.
"Jokes on you, I'm not human!"
“That doesn’t mean you aren’t terrible! And evil! And the worst person/whatever you are ever!”
"I have my own lines I don't cross! Or else I wouldn't have a wife and kid who love me!"
“How many people did you kill?” They whistle, and Alacreus jumps down next to them, leaving a small crater where they landed because they’re ridiculously fast.
He stops for a moment, calculating. "Carry the one, add the twenty..." He is using his fingers to count
After a bit, lonely just starts to walk away, Alacreus following ahead at the speed of sound.
"WAIT!!! I'm sorry! You asked!"
“That doesn’t make it any better! How on earth could I forgive you after killing that many people?!?” They yell back, their shadow clawing at the ground.
"I-i-i don't know, but please, forgive me."
“NO! YOU ARE A HORRIBLE CREATURE!! GO TO HELL!” They run off, visibly upset.
"JOKES ON YOU, I LIVE THERE!!!!"
They don’t respond, slowing down to a walk and finding a rock to sit next to, not looking at Zodiac.

"God d(gp)nit, not again."
Ice starts to form around Lonely, plants and small animals die, and other lonely magic stuff happens. Alacreus sits next to Lonely, trying to comfort them.
“Just-…-Stop doing your job! You’re Me-…mean! And-… Nobody likes you!” They say between sharp breaths of pain, trying to get up and follow them.
“Sit on clouds, I guess.” He follows, flipping the coin in his hand.
"My job isn't to have people like me, its to get people to where they need to go. Please don't try and stop me." He stays just far enough away from the child.
"Well tell Shade where we need to go." Shade steps out of the man's shadow.
“You monster…” they say, frustrated and on the verge of tears.
He passes shade the coin, with a screaming face on one side and a cat on the other. “If you have this on you, you’ll find it soon. Straight ahead. Or take a right, or whatever. The coin is the only thing that really matters.”
"Don't cry, I'm not a monster, I'm a demon." He walks back and wipes away the tears.
Shade begins to fly the plane, following the direction provided by the coin.
Lonely tries to slap their hand away, and their shadow changes and morphs, tendrils of shadow reaching across the ground towards Don’s shadow. Make a DC 25 con save.
Soon, the plane flies into a cloud of dense fog, so thick nobody can see mere feet in front of them. “Almost there…”
”Oh shadow powers. I didn’t expect this.” .Con save:26
“So anyway what else do you know about this Darklord guy?” He says opening a bottle of champagne and holding two glasses.
It gets really cold, and he can feel a magical force weighing him down, but he isn’t harmed at all. Lonely looks frustrated, confused, and slightly afraid, mostly at Don but also of their one powers.
”his name is Trilinous, and he became a darklord for sacrificing his own brother to try and attain godhood. The dark powers whisked him off to the mists along with the mountain range he lived in, and now he’s a darklord. Only met him once though, for this job. No idea why he wants The kid dead.”
“Your powers are a lot like mine kid, dark and gloom, maybe when you see things my way I’ll teach you some of my tricks.” He keeps walking once more.
”I can give a few guesses why he wants the kid dead, the kid has a lot of power, although not much control. He could contest and suppress this Darklord when he grows up. Hopefully I can help him gain control of his powers before then.”
They start whimpering, sitting back down and curling into a ball.
”huh. Knew it would be weird if he just wanted a random kid dead, though it’d be weird that they know them, unless the kid’s gone to the shadowfell.”
Don doesn’t look back, looking for someone to take into custody.
“That I don’t know, but he probably has gone there, maybe they’re even related. This dark lord guy was willing to kill his brother, why not his son or nephew?”
“Just-…-Stop doing your job! You’re Me-…mean! And-… Nobody likes you!” They say between sharp breaths of pain, trying to get up and follow them.

"God d(gp)nit, not again."
Ice starts to form around Lonely, plants and small animals die, and other lonely magic stuff happens. Alacreus sits next to Lonely, trying to comfort them.
Ragnerious follows behind him, on the opposite side of Astaroth.
Don is standing in front of him suddenly “Excuse my sir, do you mind answering some questions?”
“It is chaotic… as usual. I hope Don can start actually doing his job…” he mutters to himself, glancing to Rag.
he looks up. “Hm? Alright…”
“Who is that?” Rag says looking around longingly, remembering things.
“Have you killed anyone at all?”
“A bounty hunter, he works for me currently.” “yes, 189 people, seventeen mice, and nine hundred twenty two spiders. But that was all a long time ago and most of it was by accident.”

"Well, I f(gp)cked that up." He walks away
Johnny teatime is having a tea party.
Alacreus is comforting Lonely.
Abaddon is popping in to check on things.
Corvin is tinkering with his watch.
the doom duck is flying around, looking for a victim or someone to talk to.
A man in a taxidermied pig mask and a suit with rolled-up sleeves is walking around the dome, whistling. His flesh is translucent and pitch black.
Barbeau is looking for something... or someone.
Szerucharz is having a tea break.
Let him who is without sin cast the first stone.
May each word that I speak be backed by each of my teeth.
Zodiac appears, boops Abaddon on the nose, and disappears.
Zodiac appears next to the doom duck. "Sup?"
Ragnerious follows behind him, on the opposite side of Astaroth.
Don is standing in front of him suddenly “Excuse my sir, do you mind answering some questions?”
Abaddon grumbles in frustration and looks around to find Zodiac.
the doom duck turns to face them. Hello, Zodiac. How art thou?
“It won’t matter soon enough.”
“It is chaotic… as usual. I hope Don can start actually doing his job…” he mutters to himself, glancing to Rag.
he looks up. “Hm? Alright…”
He doesn't see him.
"Good, how about you?"
“Assuming you can kill them, but considering they’re a darklord, I doubt it’ll be permanent.”
“Who is that?” Rag says looking around longingly, remembering things.
“Have you killed anyone at all?”
Abaddon, annoyed, carries on his way.
i am doing fine. Say, what is the most powerful creature you have ever faced?
“A bounty hunter, he works for me currently.”
“yes, 189 people, seventeen mice, and nine hundred twenty two spiders. But that was all a long time ago and most of it was by accident.”
He does it again
"Oblivion."
Abaddon, extremely angered now, summons a pit fiend and prepares to have it swing at Zodiac when he does it again.
interesting. What was the battle like?
He does it again, and dodges.
"I got turned into nothing."
