Hello Everyone, Welcome to The Light that Binds Us, the fanfic that no one's heard of, but mostly because it was just published. This story is mostly meant to clean up the mess that I started with my old one. For those who've been around since then, the Story will still follow Drake and team RWBY, but with more. Now, enough talk, let us jump into this new adventure, hand in hand with one another
The City of Vale was a peaceful place to live, as it was a city where Faunus could interact with Humans and have little worry about being prosecuted by those who would treat them like animals. Although Faunus were able to live there peacefully, that didn't mean they were permitted to break the law. In one such case, a mysterious boy was running from a shop owner for a reason unknown to any random passerby. The boys appearence was a typical type that you'd see anyone wearing. He had solid Black hair with Blue highlights. He was wearing a short sleeved bright blue t-shirt with the design of a winged cross on the upper left side stretching to the lower middle half. On the other side, it read devotion in large black and white letters with Victorian style writing. He had on a simple pair of black jeans that looked a bit worn and faded, but still comfortable as well as Red and Black running shoes with a spiral type design on the outside. Now, the most offsetting thing about his appearance was the fact that his eyes were different colors. One was Blue, while the other was a permanent hue of Amber. It was an unnatural phenomenon, but he was born with those odd eyes. As if the odd eyes weren't bad enough, he was also picked on for being a Faunus, as portrayed by the Cat ears, and oddly enough, a fluffy tail which looked Fox like in appearance. To top off his outfit, he wore a 2 and a half ft long scarf wrapped around his neck once and blending the colors of Red and Blue.
"Geez, don't you give up?" The boy shouted back to the shop keep.
"There's no way your getting away after vandalizing my shop!" The Shopkeeper shouted.
"How is painting the inside of a book store vandalism?"
"Every part of that is vandalism!"
"Whatever!"
With that said, his attention was rediverted to escaping his persuer. The boy had no idea that the owner of the book store would be that mad at him. Nevertheless, he was looking for a way to escape the owner and end this pointless chase. Just ahead, he saw a street corner with a lamp post next to a crosswalk, and quickly developed an idea to throw off the pursuer. He quickly leaped towards lamppost, and right before he went past it, he hooked his left hand around the post. While still grasping the pole, he spun around on it before letting go and soaring towards the buildings ledge. Grasping onto it, the boy quickly pulled himself up and onto the building, breathing a sigh of relief.
"This isn't over! I will get up there!" The Shopkeeper shouted.
"Yeah yeah. Bring it on Tukson." The boy taunted.
The Book store owner now known as Tukson growled in response and ran around the side of the building to find a way up. The Runner sat down on the building ledge he'd just scaled, and breathed slowly.
"What did I do to get into this?" He asked himself, reminescing on how he'd gotten into the situation.
The Morning in Vale was a bright one, surely enough able to wake up anyone. Especially people who were sleeping outside for whatever reason. The early morning denizens of a well known cafe shop were startled upon hearing a yawn that sounded like an Ursa's roar. The roar/yawn's origin came from the rooftop of the building. After which, light footsteps eminated through the now quite air around the cafe. The foosteps stopped as people gazed upon a shadow that was now cast upon the the tables and chairs outside. The shadows origin was traced to the person standing on the buildings ledge.
"Did ya miss me?" The person said.
The Cafe owner sighed. "Drake, get down from there, you know I hate when you sleep on top of the building." She said, trying to keep a lid on her frustration.
The boy now known as Drake leapt down from his ledge and slowly plummeted to the ground. The mouths of the cafe patrons went agape as they watched Drake float to the ground. Seemingly as though planned, he landed perfectly into an empty chair and table, raising a question among the patrons, but not the owner. The owner pulled up a chair next to Drake, supposedly to ask what on Remnant he was doing.
"Honestly, why do always have to make some kind of spectacular entrance everytime you visit?" She asked, her voice sounding soft and sweet, but at the same time, mature.
"Oh come on, if I didn't, then you wouldn't recognize me Ryuko?" Drake replied.
"Well, you''re also the only Faunus that has two eye colors, visits daily, and wears a scarf in 90 degree heat."
"I have my reasons for the scarf, and besides, I thought you had a thing for the fashionable. I mean, it is your name after all."
"While my name does mean that, it doesn't mean I have to take it literal."
"Well regardless, you look amazing today."
Ryuko blushed at his comment, as she was wearing an outfit that did look appealing to the eye. She was currently wearing a dark blue short sleeved shirt with the image of a setting sun on the back, while the shirt itself hugged her form, showing off her womanly curves, which forced a blush onto Drake's face. She also had on a pair of Black jeans, as well as black slip on shoes. She had a head of beautiful brown hair, which was pulled into a low ponytail. Her skin was a bit pale, but still held some color from her time working outside. To top it off, she had the most intriguing pair of green eyes that just seemed to always draw the attention of anyone who looked at her.
"So, anything I can get you, or just the usual?" Ryuko asked, taking out a small notepad and pencil from her pockets.
"Offering a choice? I'm flattered, but I'll just have the usual." Drake replied.
"Right. A Mocha Latte with three sugars, and a croissant. I'll be back in a minute."
Drake nodded off as she walked indoors to fill his order. His attention was then diverted to the sidewalk to watch people walked by, off to wherever they were needed or wanted to go. He got an occasional smile in response or a wave from people that recognized him, but no one stopped by and sat at the table with him. While this may have saddened him a bit, he quickly snapped out of it as soon as he saw Ryuko carrying his order. She set it down on the table and pulled out a chair to have a bit of a talk with Drake.
"So, what''ve you been up to lately Drake?" Ryuko asked.
"You know, just the usual. Free-running, spraying graffiti, the usual stuff." Drake replied cheerfully.
"Okay, I can understanding the free-running, but why graffiti? It's illegal to spray anything on building's in Vale without permission from the owner."
"Hey, I get permission. Most of the time."
"And what about the other rest of the time?"
"I get caught by the owner of the building or store and have to clean it up."
"Then why would you tag it in the first place."
"I'm just expressing myself is all."
"Really? So having to scrub down what you put up in the first place is fun?"
"You know what I meant."
"Honestly, I will never understand you. So, got any plans?"
"Gonna swing by Tukson's bookstore."
"The one that just opened? That wouldn't be a smart idea."
"Oh come on, I'm not that untamed. Give me some credit."
"Fine. Well, I'll be taking my leave, as i have to get back to work."
"Okay. See you later."
The two them got up from their seats and went their own ways. Ryuko continued to tend to the cafe patrons, while Drake went off to Tukson's Book Trade. Along the way, people gave him discerning looks. A few congratulated him on be out in public without trying to disguise his Faunus features, while others gave him looks of disgust. Some even muttered 'filthy animal' or 'odd eyed freak' as they passed, but he chose to not let their words hurt him. Although he had been subjected to the verbal abuse for a while, its effect had lessened over time to the point where i didn't affect Drake at all.
"When will they learn that their words won't hurt me." Drake thought.
Although the comments and praise continued, he just brushed it off like they weren't even being said. Although his target was the newly opened bookstore, he was still having trouble tracking it. After nearly an hour of looking, he found it. Looking up at one of the lamppost clocks, the odd eyed Faunus noticed it was 11:30 AM. Drake smirked before entering the store, being quickly enveloped in the quiet atmosphere of the book lender's. Passing a few bookshelves as he walked, he swiftly walked up to the front desk before ringing the bell.
"Just a minute!" A professional but polite voice called out.
The doors leading to the back of the store quickly opened, revealing a set of arms holding two large stacks of books. Turning to the side, the owner of said arms was revealed to be a man who looked like he was in his lower to mid 20's. He wore a short sleeved beige shirt with black accents and a zipper. Beneath that he wore a White undershirt. His hair was cleanly cut, and he had noticeable sideburns, along with hairy, muscular arms.
"Welcome to Tukson's Book Trade, 'home to every book under the sun'. How may I-" He said before noticing Drake. "How may I help you?"
"Your pretty hospitable. Do you have any manga?" Drake asked.
"Thank you for the complement, and their by the front."
"Okay."
Drake swiftly moved over to the manga section to browse the extensive amounts of reading material. While searching, the bell that rang when opening the door rang, signaling another person had come in to look for an interesting read. Drake didn't look up from the Manga, so he didn't know what the person looked like.
"One copy of Crescendo by Becca Fitzgerald." A soft, but still audible female voice asked.
"Sure." Tukson replied happily.
The sound of something, presumably a book, being pulled out of a shelf and being placed on the front desk rang through the air. The next sound to be heard was the door bell ringing again. Drake looked up to see who had just came in and out, but all he saw was black bow. He shrugged it off and resumed his search only for it to be quickly ended as he found what he needed. Quickly grabbing the book, he examined it for any damage, only to find that the book wasn't damaged in the slightest. The Book series he was partaking in was called Fairy Tail. According to the first book in the series, it focuses around a young mage named Lucy Heartfilia, who is trying to join the apparently legendary wizards guild, Fairy Tail. Along the way, she meets a strange pink haired man named Natsu Dragneel, who is later discovered to be a member of Fairy Tail. From there, Lucy manages to get into the guild, and the adventure continues from there.
"Finally, Manga #15. At least I found a copy here." Drake muttered to himself.
Drake returned to the counter, where he found Tukson happily waiting.
"Did you find what you need?"Tukson asked politely.
"Yep." Drake replied, laying the book on the counter.
"Ah, a Fairy Tail boy, eh? Not a bad choice, though when I was younger, Bleach was the manga everyone talked about."
"Really now? That's not something I'd have expected from you, but then again, you are a book lender."
"Yeah, I get that a lot."
"How much do I owe you?"
Tukson thought for a moment before replying with "Its on the house this time."
Drake did a double take.
"Really? Why?" The Faunus boy inquired.
"Well, I could tell from your state of clothing that you sleep outside every night, but that's not why I decided to give the book to you."
"Then why?"
"Well, considering that your 'The Blue Fox', I figured i may as well be generous since your gonna tag my store."
"'The Blue Fox'? That's really what they''re calling me? I always thought myself as a Composer, expressing himself through art."
"Well, it wasn't me who came up with the name. Now then, you can tag the outside of my building. Don't worry about cleaning it."
"While I thank you for your generosity. I'm afraid you may not like this."
Drake pulled out a small, black, sphere shaped object. A look of concern suddenly struck Tukson's face as Drake pulled the pin on the unknown device. Droping it to the floor, Drake was about to tell Tukson the devices purpose, when it went off prematurely. For that moment in time, the world felt like it was in slow motion as Drake and Tukson watched a colored cloud disperse from where the item fell. The cloud obscured the vision for both of them, and forcing them to cough as the colored air entered their lungs. Drake quickly ran to the door and opened it in an attempt to prevent their suffocation. The store door swung open as Drake ran out of it with the colored smoke trailing him. Tukson soon followed out, allowing the smoke to clear from his store. Within minutes, the cloud had disappated nearly completely, save for a semi clear cloud still leaving the building. When it looked like most of the smoke had evaporated, Tukson walked into the store, only to find that everything was coated in a layer of blue. To say that he was mad was a great understatement. Tukson was like a stick of dynamite ready to explode.
"DRAKE!" Tukson roared in anger.
Tukson quickly bolted out of the store door, and turned left, following the direction Drake took. He stopped at the first street corner, gazing down the sidewalk. When he looked at the cafe roughly a street block away, he noticed his target and started sprinting after him like a madman. Drake was blissfully unaware of the incoming shopkeeper, continuing his conversation with Ryuko.
"You do know that he's going to be pissed once he catches you, right?" Ryuko reminded.
"Yeah. But hey, chances are that I can outrun him." Drake said, arrogantly.
"Really, because he's getting really close, really fast."
"What!?"
Drake got up from his seat to see that Ryuko was right. Drake quickly began sprinting in the opposite direction, whether out of fear or want to not get caught. So, he just ran as fast as he could.
"Oh yeah, that's why. Man, why'd I have to test out my paint bomb on him?" Drake asked himself
"That's a very good question." Tukson said.
Drake looked to his side only to see that his pursued was standing directly next to him. He was struck instantly as he rolled sideways to put some distance between him and Tukson. After rolling, he quickly got into a standing postion, but found that he was cornered at the edge of the building.
"If your done running, I'd like to talk." Tukson said, trying to keep his calm.
Tukson slowly walked forward, while Drake was panickng internally. Looking back towards the street, he looked for something soft to land on. Unfortunately, he found no such object. Stepped onto the building siding, he looked down one more time before slightly easing his right foot over the edge.
"Kid, your crazy. Don't jump, I just wanna talk, nothing more." The booklender pleaded.
His cries fell on deaf ears as Drake turned away from him and jumped towards the street. For the moment in time when he was falling, Drake felt like he was moving slowly. While he knew he'd be fine landing on the the ground, he didn't realize that he may have jumped a little too far and was about to fall on someone. He didn't have enough time to call out to the person, and when he hit, the two of them went to the ground. Tukson sighed and ran back towards the stairwell he used to get up to the roof.
Drake and the person he'd landed on both groaned in pain. Even though they had aura's, they had to use them manually, and have a mysterious person fall on you left little, if any time to activate your Aura.
"Ow." The girl beneath Drake whined.
Drake got into a push up postion to lift himself off of the girl by a bit. Looking back at the person he was currently on top of, he blushed at the sight of her pale white skin, and silver eyes. The girl was dressed in a black blouse, and a skirt with red trimmings. To top it off, beneath her was a red cloak, which looked large enough to cover her entire form. The position the two were in was very suggestive, but they were lucky that people were just passing the too by, not paying them any mind. Although now one bothered to care about whatever antics they were in, the two of them were blushing like a wildfire.
"Umm. Do you mind getting off of me?" The girl asked.
"O-oh. Y-yeah." Drake stammered.
He quickly off of the girl and stood up. Kneeling down for a moment, he took her hand and pulled her back onto her feet. Although they were no longer in the position as before, they were still blushing. Both were either too shy or too embarrassed to say something to one another.
"Sorry about, y'know, landing on you." Drake apologized, trying to ease the tension.
"It's fine. I'm not hurt or anything, so it's okay." The girl replied happily.
"That's good to hear."
"Wait. You look familiar. Do I know you?"
"I don't think we've ever formally met."
"Are you sure?"
"If we had, then wouldn't I know your name?" The Faunus questioned.
The mysterious girl thought for a moment before replying.
"Okay. Then what is your name?" The girl asked.
"It's Drake." The Faunus said.
"Nice to meet you Drake, my name is Ruby Rose."
While the two were introducing one another, Tukson had been watching from across the street, thinking of how to approach this situation. Quickly gathering his solution, he sighed before proceeding over to the two. Drake and Ruby noticed Tukson, causing Drake to get into a defensive position while Ruby was left confused.
"Stand down. I wasn't chasing you because I wanted to hurt you." Tukson tried to reason.
"You were chasing him? Drake, what did you do?" Ruby asked the Faunus boy.
"I sorta painted the inside of his shop blue." Drake confessed.
"Look, just tell me how to fix it."
"Just use a sort of gentle mist. Doesn't the shop have a sprinkler system?"
"Yes."
"Well, just turn it on low, and the paint will wash away."
"Okay. Thanks for the help, and enjoy your book."
Tuksone left while the two waved him off as he walked away. Drake turned to face Ruby as she did the same to him. With the worry of being pursued no longer bothering him, he could now divert his attention to the girl before him. As he looked into her silver eyes, and she looked back into his Amber and Green ones, a connection had sparked between the two. As the Connection sparked, so did a blush on both of their faces. The silence between them was offsetting, and was finally broken by Drake.
"So, what now?" Drake asked.
"I guess we could walk around Vale and try to get to know each other. It's only 3 o clock, and I don't have to be home til around 8." Ruby said.
"S-sure. Where do you want to go first?"
"Hmm, how about you choose."
"Okay. We can visit this cafe I stop by everyday."
"Sounds good."
Drake lead the way while Ruby followed close behind him. Thanks to Tukson chasing him, Drake estimated that they were at least three or four blocks away. He sighed, knowing that it'd be a bit of a distance to get to the cafe, but felt it was worth the walk. So, in a haste to not waste time, he quickly started walking towards their destination, with Ruby following quickly behind. Drake admired how the Black and Red of her outfit brought out the beauty of her pale, flawless skin. The thoughts of how beautiful Ruby was forced a deep shade of Scarlet onto Drake's face.
"Drake? You okay? Your blushing." Ruby said.
Drake snapped out of his thoughts and addressed the girl.
"Huh? Oh! Yeah, I'm fine. Just thinking." The Faunus said.
"About what?" The cheerful red girl asked.
"N-nothing. Uh, weapons?" Drake lied.
"You like weapons too? I never though that- well now I'm really glad to have met you."
Draked sighed. "Looks like a dodged a bullet there." He thought.
"What kind of weapon do you use? If you use one that is?" Ruby asked.
"Oh. Uh, I use twin chain scythes." Drake said.
"That's nice. What are they called?"
"I call them the Claws of Wind."
"That's neat. I got my sweetheart, Crescent Rose."
From beneath Ruby's cloak, she pulled forth a red block-like object that quickly began changing shape. Within seconds, it had unfurled into a 5 foot, 2 inch long Scythe. In the opposite side from the cutting edge were two jagged spikes which appeared to hold no apparent use from just a glance.
"Woah. What kind of weapon is that?" Drake asked.
"A High-Calibur Sniper Scyther." Ruby answered.
"Awesome. Taking a shot in the dark here, but do you attend Signal Academy?"
"Yes. How'd you know?" Ruby inquired while putting her weapon away.
"Lucky Guess. I've heard quite a bit about that school. Trains kids to become Hunters and Huntresses. An honest profession in my opinion."
"Do you take classes there?"
"Nope, otherwise you might see me there and not out here. Doing my usual stuff you hear about."
"True, but I think you'd be a great Hunter, if you put your mind to it."
"Yeah."
Without even noticing, Drake had lead them to the cafe. Taking a moment to notice his surroundings, he breathed a sigh of frustration, realizing that he had done the whole, subconsciously moving thing again. Choosing to ignore that at the moment, he lead Ruby to an empty table, pulled the seat out for her, and took the seat across from her. They waited there for a few moments before Ryuko approached them.
"Well well well. I wasn't expecting you back again today. So, get caught again?" Ryuko asked.
"Yeah, but I got out of having to clean this time. Not to mention, I met this nice girl you see before me."
Ruby gave a meek wave before Ryuko looked back at Drake.
"So, the 'Composer' finally made a friend, huh? Well I say some congratulations are in order." The Cafe owner chirped happily.
"Please don't." Drake whined.
"C'mon, it'll be fun."
"Yeah. It might be a little fun, Drake." Ruby said.
"Sure." Drake said, dishearteningly.
"Okay. I'll be in a minute while you two get better 'acquainted'" Ryuko said as a smirk quickly spread on her face.
Staying true to what she said, she did indeed leave into the store to fetch some stuff, leaving an idle silence between Ruby and Drake. Whether it was out of pure embarrassment or unsurity, Drake remained silent. The silence he felt made Ruby feel that something was wrong.
"Why isn't he saying anything? Did I already do something wrong? Maybe I shouldn't have shown him Crescent Rose." Ruby thought.
"If you want me to, I'll leave you alone." Ruby said as she began to get out of her seat.
"Wait! Don't go." Drake responded, nearly jumping out of his seat at the girl.
"Why not? You won't say anything, and you look like you want me to leave you alone."
"It's not that Ruby. It's just... I've never had any friends. Ever."
"What?" Ruby said, shocked.
"No one wanted to be friends with me when I was little. Everytime someone tried, they took one look at my eyes and ran away."
"What's wrong with your eyes?"
"Can't you tell? Their different."
Drake made emphasise on this by looking Ruby right in her own, but not with a look of anger. Instead, it was one of sadness. That look alone made Ruby feel a little sad for the Faunus.
"All because my eyes are different, I never made any friends. And when I tried to befriend someone they either walked away or called me a freak before forcing me to the ground and starting to hurt me." Drake said, tears slowly falling down his cheeks.
"I. I don't know what to say." Ruby spoke.
"Don't say anything. You don't wanna be friends with me, I get it. I'll just leave you be."
With that, Drake started to slowly walk away. Ruby remained motionless as she tried to process Drake's actions. Standing like a statue, she stood there, just watching as Drake walked further and further away before he rounded a corner and left her sight. Only when he was no longer visible did Ruby snap back into reality and start moving after him. She quickly rushed to the corner he rounded only to find that he had disappeared completely.
"Drake! Drake! Where are you?" Ruby called out.
No response rang out from as far as Ruby could hear, so she assumed he couldn't hear her. She started to run down the sidewalk up until it ended at another crosswalk. She looked down all the possible route's Drake could've taken, only to find that she couldn't see the red and blue scarfed friend. Ruby felt that she wouldn't be able to find her friend, but she wouldn't give up. Looking up at a street clock, it read 5:43, so that gave her at least 2 hours to find her friend. So, she did, going from shop to shop, block to block, even alley to alley.
"I have to find Drake. I don't know if he'll want to be my friend, but I will at least try to say I'm sorry." Ruby thought to herself.
The hour and a half had passed and her search bore no results. Every shop keeper she visited had either said that a black and blue haired Faunus, or that they had seen him pass by, but not come in. She breathed a frustrated sigh, upset by the fact that she couldn't find Drake. Looking up at a clock, it now read 7:13, meaning she had to be home in relatively 45 minutes. She turned hwe attention to the last shop, bearing the name Dust til Dawn. Grasping the door handle, she pulled back and quietly walked inside. Ruby walked up to the store owner working behind the counter.
"Hello young lady, how may I help you this evening?" The elderly shopkeeper greeted.
"Have you seen boy about 5'8, with two eye colors, and wearing a red and blue scarf?" Ruby asked, the desperation showing in her tone.
"Actually, yes. He should be over in the back section."
Ruby's eyes lit up, going from gloomy to immediately joyful. Walking along the counter, she stopped at the second aisle to the right and saw the person she'd been seeking for half the day. He had his back turned to her and was wearing a blue headset, which had a black spiraling star emblem on each of the earmuffs. He apparently had something in his hands, but Ruby wasn't able to tell what it was from her angle. She quickly walked up to him til he was just within arms reach. Slightly hesitating, Ruby outstretched her hand til it was mere inches from Drake's shoulder, when she suddenly stopped.
"Maybe he ran away from me for a reason. What if he just wanted to be alone?" Ruby thought to herself.
It was then that she started hearing the lyrics from the song Drake was listening to. The song had a piano beat to it in the back while a female sang a song that sounded heartfelt.
One Life
Is not a long time
Ruby recognized the song as Wings, but didnt understand why Drake was listening to it. The song was usually meant to comfort someone who had lost someone important to them.
When your waiting
For a Small Sign
But what was the sign that Drake was waiting for.
Patience
Is hard to find.
Shadows
Seem to fill your life
It was with that last set of lyrics that she finally understood why Drake ran from her earlier. His life had been surrounded in Shadows for who knew how long. Ruby understood that he ran because he was afraid that she didn't like him, just as she was afraid Drake didn't like her. Casting away all of her hesiatation, Ruby place hwe hand on Drake's shoulder, but it didn't spawn a surprised reaction from the boy.
"Why did you come after me Ruby?"Drake said, not even turning to see whether it was Ruby or not.
"Drake, why did you run earlier?" Ruby questioned back.
"I ran because I was afraid that you'd reject me."
"Because of your eyes? I'd never do that. I think having different eye colors is pretty cool."
"Wait, really?" Drake said, his tone taking a sudden 360.
"Yeah. Your eyes are just so cool."
Drake smiled from Ruby's compliments, taking in the fact that someone was accepting him for who he was, and not how he looked. His eyes lit up with joy as he looked at Ruby. She wore a smile that easily melted Drake's heart. Without word or warning, Drake pulled Ruby into a close hug, surprising the girl. While still surprised, she accepted his advances and returned the embrace.
"Thank you Ruby. Thank you." The Faunus said.
"Your welcome. I'm glad I was able to help you however I did." The Young Huntress-in-training said.
The two seperated and looked into one another's eyes. Their gazes locked onto one another. It was as though they could tell what the other was thinking just by looking into their eyes.
"Ruby Rose. The girl who brought me out of the darkness that engulfed my life. I can never thank her enough." Drake thought.
"Drake Vermillion. A boy with a shrouded past and a dark outlook on life. I'm gonna do whatever I can to help him out." Ruby thought.
"Oh, while I was waiting for you, I found this weapons magazine I thought you might be interested in." Drake said, pulling said magazine from his back pocket.
"Really?!" Ruby said while snatching the magazine from his hands. "This is the newest issue. I can't wait to read it!"
"Then why don't you?"
Before Ruby could respond, he pulled the hood of the cloak over her head. She gave a playful glare at him before pulling her own headset out of her back pocket. She placed them over her ears before turning the song This Will Be the Day on. Drake shrugged off Ruby's sudden concentration on the magazine by grabbing a magazine off the spinning rack. Both of them were turned away from the Windows, so they didn't notice the group of people headed towards the shop.
Did you guys all me? If so, then I'm honored. If not, then I'm sad. Anyways, welcome the the Light that Binds Us. This story is meant to be a revised version of my old one. Regardless, I appreciate you all, and look forward to starting this adventure with all of you. This is Noctis Rose, signing out.
