'World is large. But the truth is larger than world itself.' - Unkown
From thy sea of thou soul I come…
I opened my eyes and saw Orpheus looking at me with his red eyes. His eyes are full of despair and dread. Orpheus is my mask, my personality, my Persona.
Orpheus used to be my tool, but in the end we are same, Failure. That's all what I keep repeating over and over in this loneliness. Orpheus failed to protect his wife and I failed to protect my friends. We are same right?
No…
Who is talking to me?
You have someone you want to protect.
Is that…
Please… they need you.
You Orpheus?
She needs you…
Why?
This is my wish master…
Orpheus?
I'll back to your soul…
Answer me!
And we become one.
Orpheus!
For you my master…
Don't go!
I'll be the seal.
No!
Persona: The World Awakening
Chapter 1
Date: ?
Place: ?
"Welcome to the velvet room."
I remember that sound, old and low voice, the one who helped me achieved the seal, Igor. I try to open my eyes but blinded by bright blue light. I cover my eyes and try to wake up.
"It seems fate still love you, isn't it?" I looked at the tiny old man sit across of me. I'll never forget his long nose. "But on the contrary your journey isn't over."
"Hello Igor…" Thank you for the greeting I thought. "How long I've been in the great seal?" The great seal the seal which protect humanity from Nyx with a cost, my soul. "Wait if I'm here then Nyx is on the loose!" I said hysterically.
Igor gives me an eerie chuckle. "My dear, it seems an extraordinary thing occurred."
I lift my eyebrows. "What do you mean?"
"It seems your persona move on its own and become the seal." Hi inform me.
"What!" I screamed. "Than that means it was not dream!"
He looked at me, intrigued. "Ah… but the seal is not permanent."
I raised my eyebrow. "What do you mean?"
"The seal needs human soul to be permanent…"
"But my persona becomes the seal and it's just temporary." I cut him. "Is that what you want to say?"
He chuckled again. Man, his chuckle is scary… "That's the summary. But more or less it's true. Your psyche is one of your souls. That's why Orpheus became the great seal."
I nod, understand what he said. And then it punch me. "If my persona become the great seal, what persona I'm used?"
"It seems Orpheus isn't your true persona." He said briefly.
"'True persona'? What are you talking about?" I asked. Obviously confused what he said.
"You haven't open up to the world. You always wear your mask. You haven't showed your true self." Igor said. He snapped his finger and a blank blue card fell into my hand. "You haven't achieved your true arcane, the true world. You're the sounds of the world, the one who answers the world calling. But you haven't achieved that."
"How?" I asked him. "How could I achieved my true persona?" I want to get stronger, for my friends, for my beloved ones, for… her.
He closed his eyes. "I'm afraid I already said too much." He said. I looked down. "But I'll say this to you. Protect your friend. They are the ones who helps you achieved your true persona."
I nod my head. "I will Igor… I will…"
He smiled at me. "Now then, time still walking. I shouldn't hold you no more." He stood up and walked into the door. I followed him. "Is there any questions?"
"Where is Elizabeth?" I asked him.
"She is protecting the seal." He answered. "Don't worry about her. She is strong girl. And you'll meet my new assistant."
I smiled, relived that Elizabeth okay. "Okay then igor. I'll going now." I couldn't anticipate my feeling. I'm curious to my new journey.
"Hope you enjoy it. You'll meet my master across your journey. Until then…" He opened the door and a bright light blinds me. "Farewell"
