"Exactly." Everyone said, crossing their arms. "Shouldn't this thing be happy that we're killing the guy who hurt him?"

"I don't know how he feels about it, but I know that it's wrong to kill an innocent person like this."

[xinoehp512 he/him]

Never innocent.

[Sequence she/they]

"I don't know how he feels about it, but I know that it's wrong to kill an innocent person like this."

"... Are you telling me that the Witherlord is innocent?" Everyone gave Nameless an incredulous glare. "Your avatar is arguing for T̵̫̝͐̕Ḧ̶̫E̵͔̝͂̚ ̵͓̄S̷̲͌T̷̡̬̉O̵̧͗̒R̷̲͉̓͌M̵̜̻̐͝I̵͚͠N̷̡̨̿̑G̶̥̎ ̴͉͌͋Ẉ̶̮͊Ī̴̗̒T̵̻̞̆Ḧ̶̛̤̯Ě̷̺R̶̦̬͝L̸̬̥̀O̶͙̓̉R̵͎̈D̸̖́'̵̦̆̕S̷̬̩̈́ innocence!"

"im inclined to agree with Nameless," said Spook, "the witherlord was once an avatar like me, if I understand correctly, they were infected and have been controlled, I do not want to kill the person behind it."

[The Wandering Wizard he/him]

"But what if the only way to save them is to kill them," asks Hunter.

Nameless shrugged. "She can do what she wants. And I have to say, I agree with her. Partially. X's avatar is a friend. I don't want to kill him. But the Witherlord needs to be stopped, and if X's avatar's death will do that... well, I'll do what I must."

"Great, that works."

Spook shivered, "no."

Just now, Nameless said:

Moni glared harder. "Have you ever died? Do you know what it feels like? Well I do."

Everyone scowled, then took a deep breath. "No, I have not. But I am quite literally made of pain. Dying isn't fun, I'm sure, but it has to be done. What would you rather have happen? The Witherlord complete his plans of destroying TLT and then moving on to everything beyond it? This is the only way, Moni."

"I refuse to accept that. There has to be another way."

[EmulatonStromenkiin he/him]

In [another location redacted for security], Drozor stirred, and cried out, nightmares and conflicting memories warring in his mind.

[Sequence she/they]

Just now, Nameless said:

"I refuse to accept that. There has to be another way."

Everyone shook their head. "I wish there was, mostly just because I have to kill myself to complete the plan, but it sure would be nice to be able to solve everything without violence."

"Nowhere!" Everyone shouted, turning away from Moni. "Let's get this last test done, then start the plan. We want to get rid of the Witherlord as soon as possible."

The survey stirred.

Another way...

Nowhere hesitated. He looked at the others. Then he realized something, he pulled out the device and pointed it at himself.

"trying something new." he then pointed it at the survey.

Another way...

"Do you know another way? Maybe we could imprison him? Or perhaps separate the Witherlord from your avatar?"

[Sequence she/they]

Just now, Thaidakar the Ghostblood said:

"trying something new." he then pointed it at the survey.

"Nowhere, do you even know what you're doing? Why would connecting yourself with a broken piece of magic paper do anything?"

Just now, Sequence said:

Nowhere sighed, "it will do... something."

[xinoehp512 he/him]

I am already connected to my avatar, if that is what you are trying to do.

Moni shoved the survey in her pack before he could finish. "What do you think you're doing?"

"Nowhere is trying to connect himself to you, for some reason."

I don't know...

Nowhere shook his head, "no, im trying to do something noone else has done before." he took the bond and folded it in half in his mind.

Moni grabbed the machine from him. "Stop this nonsense right now."
