Part 1/2
_____________________________

I took my last walk along the SMP. After this, I would be dying, I decided.

Sure, the faces of them would probably still be engraved with hatred from the day before.

But just like old times, the only person I could see was Tubbo.

I wanted to walk by him. I wanted to stay casual. I wanted to continue on, and make him forget ever meeting me.

But I don't think I could allow him such a pleasure.

"Hey." He said solemnly to me, not realizing I had been waiting for it the whole time.

"What do you want?" I asked with a neutral tone.

"I just... wanted to say I was sorry. I- I didn't know." He admit, looking to the ground and kicking a stray rock.

"I don't think I can forgive you. It's not like me." I said, telling him the truth.

He stayed in silence for a bit, where I could see his eyes turn glossy, where I could only recognize tears.

"I've lived a long time. And some others have done much less to me to catch my grudge. But I should probably drop them, shouldn't I?" I asked him, hinting at my fate.

"Wh- what?" He asked slowly, not really getting what I was saying.

"I'm... going to be dying. Because I'm free now. So I guess in my order of gratitude and forgiveness, I'll allow you to forget me." I said, telling him a solemn truth.

"How is that good? I want to remember. In the time I've spent with you as my friend, I got to see a whole different civilization of people who live completely different. I've seen so much cool stuff, too. I even still have the orb you gave me if I ever wanted to become a Nightmare." He held a small black orb in his hands as he looked me with teary eyes.

"It's... better you don't remember the sadness I bring with me. But I can provide you an alternative. Regardless, I will need that orb." I said, allowing him to drop the orb into my hands.

I admired the orb briefly, almost forgetting the power this single it held.

"What's the other option?" Tubbo asked, sadness in his voice. He knew I was going to die, and he knew he wouldn't remember me.

"Well... me and Dream are dying together." I took a long pause.

And in that time, I dropped a different orb in his hands. Black, and smaller than the last.

"Maybe you could follow us."

I immediately left after my statement. And with my departure, I took all the memory of myself from his mind. I left only a simple statement: 'If you want to remember a friend you have made, and all the good and bad she has done, use this, and with it join the afterlife to see her once again.'

I did not want to address all the unsaid words. I may have been attached to him, but I could still drop the feeling in a few days.

If I even gave myself that long.

I didn't tell Dream of my decision yet, since I'd rather make sure I was even sure of it.

My crown had laid on my head no longer than two weeks. My reign will last no longer than those same two weeks.

"...I hereby leave you all to resonate with this statement, as it will be my last. In the newfound Lands we all live in, I ask you to never forget what you once were, human or not, and use those same tactics to lead this civilization going for a long while. And with that, I am obliged to tell you all that I leave Nempus, the chosen one, to lead you all until either of my two own are ready to take on their action as the Kyatana legacy. Good life everyone, I look forward to seeing you afterwards."

I remembered the whole speech as though it had just happened. Well, it only happened yesterday, which I was okay with.

Afterwards, I also remember carefully putting the crown on Nempus's head. I knew he would take the responsibility seriously... mainly because I may have threatened to come back and deal with him myself if he didn't.

And I didn't have to worry much, since all Nightmares were capable of the position, but only few could truly hold it.

It was weird, to think my own children were less than a year younger than Apate, since the egg. Though some may argue that she was much older, due to her time in that stage - and arguably, she was fully grown in it - she was older, but it had gained her no experience.

So some day, they may just rule alongside one another. Hopefully, Apate would have changed, since I know I have over the last thousand years.

And one of the last things I could remember was going back to my treehouse, Dream sitting, not really doing anything.

He glanced at me hopefully, but looked back down, trying not to have an expected answer.

"I'm coming." I said bluntly, and the same look I saw only moments before came back.

"Really?" He asked, a glimmer in his eyes.

Make sure to read the next chapter, since it ends the first ending.

I may just come back some time to continue the Kyatana legacy (story wise) after I finish my next book.
