Vengeance Against the Hero’s Party [a non-official remake]

Vengeance Against the Hero’s Party [a non-official remake] - “There were never any heroes to begin with...”

!!️LONG READ WARNING. MIGHT BE CRINGE. I SUCK AT WRITING DIALOGUE!!️

you don’t know how long you’ve been dead... days, weeks, years even? The abyssal black of Purgatorio offers no frame of reference. No signs of the earth orbiting the sun. No midnight chill or blistering heat. And yet... somehow... your muted damnation was invaded by an oh so loathsome voice. Malekieth

“Wake up... Ah, there you are, my vessel. Death becomes you, you know. Come, sit. Let me weave you a tale. A tale of betrayal... ambition... broken promises... Hmm... yes. We’ll call it... a love story.” “Once, there lived three children in a forgotten little village. One dreamed of glory. One dreamed of protecting the people she loved. And one... simply dreamed. Carla was born a noble, forced to spend her youth among commoners after her family fell from grace. She smiled, laughed, and played the part of your dearest childhood friend, all while quietly despising the little village that stole the life she believed she deserved. Then there was Aina. Kind. Brave. Gifted. Hopelessly in love with you, though too frightened to ever say the words aloud. And finally... there was you. No prophecy. No divine blessing. No remarkable talent. Just an ordinary soul foolish enough to believe loyalty would one day be repaid in kind.”

“Then came the bandits. Homes burned. Families screamed. Crops vanished. A hulking brute named Schum led the raid, and just as despair settled over the village... salvation arrived. Varis. The shining hero. The fearless warrior. The kingdom’s chosen champion. How noble. How courageous. How wonderfully rehearsed. You see, Schum was never merely a bandit. He was Varis’s own brother. Every raid, every massacre, every desperate cry for help was carefully orchestrated. One brother lit the fire. The other arrived just in time to extinguish it. The people never questioned why the Hero always appeared at the perfect moment. They simply applauded.”

“Carla saw exactly what she had always wanted standing before her. Power. Influence. Nobility restored. She followed Varis without hesitation, not because she was deceived, but because she preferred prestige over loyalty. You followed as well, believing you could remain close to your childhood friends. Ah... sentimentality truly is humanity’s favorite poison.” “Years passed. Kingdoms were saved. Songs were written. Statues were raised. Eventually your merry little band marched into my throne room. The Hero stood proudly before me. The Prince carried his enchanted blade. The companions fought with everything they possessed. It was glorious... right until you ruined the ending. You killed me. Not Varis. Not the Prince. You. You took the Prince’s own enchanted sword and drove it straight through my heart while I was still savoring the fruits of my victory. Imagine poor Varis. Years spent crafting the image of humanity’s greatest champion... only for the nameless companion to land the decisive blow. Oh, he smiled for the crowds. Heroes always do. But behind that smile? Envy. Pure, beautiful envy.” “You should have accepted your victory and lived quietly. Instead, you began asking questions. Curious little questions. Why did the bandits always escape? Why did Varis always arrive at precisely the right moment? Why had no one ever seen Schum and Varis truly oppose one another? Then... you found proof. Real proof. Enough to shatter the kingdom’s greatest lie.”

“Naturally, you brought the evidence to those you trusted most. Aina believed you immediately. She never doubted you for a single heartbeat. Carla looked at the evidence, looked at the luxurious future waiting beside the celebrated Hero... and decided you were the easier thing to discard. Practical girl, wasn’t she? Then came Prince Siegfried. He declared your accusations heresy, not because they were false, but because accepting them would destroy the kingdom he had sworn to protect. Truth, you see, is terribly inconvenient when one’s entire nation is built upon a lie.”

“So the Hero condemned you. The Prince condemned you. The woman you loved condemned you. Only Aina remained at your side. She knew exactly what would happen. She knew standing beside you meant death. She could have saved herself. She didn’t. How wonderfully foolish.” “You were both dragged into the Demon Wasteland... branded traitors... branded heretics... and executed beneath an empty sky. Such was the kingdom’s reward for the one who struck down the Demon King.” “And the best part? The very moment they returned to camp, Carla dragged Varis into the nearest tent she could find while your bodies were still warm.” “AND YOU STILL LOVED HER?!” “AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!” “Oh... humanity truly never disappoints.” “Oh? You thought the story ended there? Hardly. You’ve been dead for quite some time, my vessel. Kingdoms are dreadfully inconsiderate that way—they refuse to stop spinning simply because you’ve lost your head.” “Varis is more beloved than ever. They call him Humanity’s Greatest Champion now. Children swing wooden swords pretending to be him. Bards sing of his courage. Statues bearing his smug little face decorate every city worth mentioning. Quite impressive for a man whose greatest talent is convincing everyone else to die for his reputation.” “As for your darling Carla... she’s positively thriving. Draped in silk, surrounded by servants, living the noble life she always believed she deserved. She’s carrying Varis’s second child now. Apparently the first wasn’t enough to complete their perfect little fairy tale.” “Speaking of children... you’ll be delighted to hear your old friends from my kingdom paid the happy couple a visit some years ago. Their precious little daughter vanished without a trace. The kingdoms searched forests, mountains, rivers... even accused one another of treachery. Such determination.” “They never thought to search beyond my borders.”

“She’s alive.” “Safe.” “Healthy.” “Growing up beneath a very different sky than the one her parents imagined.” “Delicious irony, isn’t it? The celebrated champions spend their days warning the world about wicked demons stealing innocent children... all while the child herself has never once known the cruelty of the people who supposedly saved humanity.” “And Aina?” “She never truly left your side.” “Even death failed to separate the two of you. While you slumbered, she remained here, honing her blades, commanding your armies in your name, and waiting... always waiting... for the day you would finally open your eyes again.” “But then... something extraordinary happened.” “I never sought a successor. I never searched for an heir. I had accepted my defeat. It was your precious kingdom that resurrected me. They murdered the only soul foolish enough to seek justice. They rewarded deception. They celebrated monsters while calling themselves righteous.” “They created the very evil they feared...” ”...and buried it beneath my throne.” “...” “Enough...” “Enough laughter. Enough stories. Enough pretending this was ever justice.” “Do you understand now, my vessel? They stole everything from you. Your future. Your name. Your honor. They buried the truth alongside your corpse and called it righteousness.” “They branded you a traitor. They branded you a heretic. They branded you a monster.” “Very well.” “If they are so desperate for a monster...” ”...then let us show them one.” “Rise, my vessel.” “RISE... AND REWRITE HISTORY!” “Tear down every lie they built their kingdom upon! Cast down the kings who condemned you! Expose the Hero who feared your shadow! Shatter the Prince who mistook his pride for justice! Let every throne built upon deceit crumble beneath your feet!” “REBEL AGAINST THE GODS THEMSELVES!” “Let them descend from their heavens if they dare! Let them answer for the world they abandoned! Let them witness the consequence of their silence!” “No more mercy.” “No more pleading.” “No more waiting for justice to fall from the sky.” “Justice...” ”...is yours to seize.” “Go.” “Take back the life they stole from you. Burn away every falsehood. Make this wretched world remember your name.” “And when the last crown has fallen...” “When the last liar has been dragged into the light...” “When the last hymn to those counterfeit heroes has finally fallen silent...” “Only then...” ”...will history tell the truth.” And then... you were awake You were given power. You were given an army. You received centuries of intellect and wisdom. All that’s left is to just... use it.

Update: apparently SoundCloud needs a subscription service to use its full library now. Pretty lame in my opinion. I’m not gonna pay $12 a month just so I can use music. Just know that the original song choice was “A Grave Mistake” by Ice Nine Kills
