as they landed, cloudburst put a frazild cristel down on the ground when she was able to stand on her own two legs, mirages boots clicking and clacking quietly onto the tile flooring, cristel looking left and right while she asked.

"where are we?..."

she asked, as cloudburst answers.

"we're in the pathway to the diamond king...., don't touch any gems while in there you two...."

he said while changing back to normal.

"I'll be here when you two come out...."

cristel was about to ask why, but mirage only nods for a yes and gently grabbed cristels arm and walked with her into the pathway, their boots quietly clicking and clacking as they walked into the diamond kings main area, a beautifully made castle with tiles made out of onyx's and rubies, the two can see many statues of zavy, all either completely broken, or half way broken, each one being made from different gems, even ones cristel never knew even existed before hand, think sapphires, ruby, diamonds, lapis's, spinels, pearls, emeralds, onyx's, garnets, topaz's, amethysts, etc, weakest to strongest, theirs workers all across the location with masks similar to the diamond kings own..., the castle being made out of onyx's and rubies, as cristel said.

"Damn..., how tall is the diamond king exactly???..."

She asked with a look that was rather out of surprisement, as mirage answers.

"you'd be surprised if we have the miss fortune to meet him while he's at this stage of insanity due to what she made what's left of zavys sanity do to him...."

they said with a gulp soon followed by cristels anxiety, as the two of them went inside of the castle, the said castle, like the rest of the kingdom itself, was made out of some form of gem or jewel, yet unlike its much brighter kingdom, the inside of the castle was dark, very dark....

"really dark...."

cristel said before getting a hold of mirage, shaking while the two went inside completely, other than the clicks and clacks of their boots being softened by the carpet, cristels own shaking is heard, as they walked inside, they could hear the soft hum of someone, someone cristel knew far too well....

"oh mary contrary how does your garden grow?..., with silver shells and cockleshells and pretty maids all in a row..."

cristel heard that hum...., that familiar hum...., it can't be....

"a-alabaster?...."

cristel quietly said with a gulp, the sound echoed like a bat in a cave, the diamond king might've lost his sanity, but his hearing is anything but gone..., mirage on the other hand panicked, picked up cristel and began running, the carpet muffling their foot steps only a bit before the two hid somewhere within the castle, mirage covering cristels heavy and panicking breaths until they can no longer hear the diamond kings foot steps, mirage could only sign in relief before turning to cristel.

"What was that cristel!!?????...."

they asked, the smile never leaving for whatever reason cristel does not know yet, but mirage can still move their other facal expressions as cristel saw many times before hand, and the one their giving now, despite the smile, was anything but happy, their panicked and right now, both physically and mentally cristel is anything but alright, as cristel could only stammer out.

"I-i recognized him by h-his humming a-and i-it just slipped out...."

mirage had a wide eye expression before it returned to the more annoyed and confused one.

"Recognized him!?!-"

mirage could only stop their frustration at how cristels head processes, only duc to two reasons, one, cuz the facal expression she had right now was of panic, confusion, fear and most obvious, sadness that she was about to be yelled at, and two, mirages own frustration would've give them both out and lord only knows what'll happen to either of them if that happens, then they took a deep yet quiet breath to calm themself down before saying.

"I understand you recognize him..., but as I said before..., He's not well..., him right now and you have to be quiet..., any sudden noise can make him aware where we are at and than both of us are doomed..."

they said in a whisper, to witch cristel nodded for a yes in understandment before whipping off her tears, before the two began quietly walking, trying to navigate themselves around the darkend castle all while trying to avoid the diamond king himself, after avoiding the diamond king once again, and not hearing his heavy foot steps for a few minutes by now, cristel asked.

"what are we exactly looking for?..."

cristel asked in a whisper, witch mirage responds also in a whisper.

"The vorpal blade..."

cristel, with that knowledge already knew what that means, it's a weapon of sorts, yet what type of weapon well, she has no clue.., when the two eventually and actually made it to the room where the alleged vorpal blade is kept, the two can barely see it, knowing whats keeping the weapon in question in its casing, not gems, not thorn filled roots, not even long deceased skeletoned gaurds, no, what cristel later knew what it is, it's a tenderal or two, completely made out of flesh and muscle, cristel knew that, she saw it and heard of it too many times to be anything but not aware what flesh and muscle look and feels like, yet before cristel would investigate any further, one grabbed onto mirages ankle and brought them down onto the ground with it, metal and fur clating with the gem/jewelry made floor while cristel tried pring it off of their ankle while mirage pulls on their leg in order to do the same, before either one knew it cristel stumbled backwards and onto her ass, and on her hands the tendral was there, waving around in a frantic panic for a second or two, before going limp, continusingly bleeding out as it did so, when that happened the two hears a loud, painful scream, nothing from the diamond king tho..., no cristel knew that voice all too well...

"S-starlight?..."

cristel quietly mummered out, starlight was an animatronic from a series like star palace, yet it's an animation made by rainbott themself, much like with star palace and moonbunnies and fry with nimbus, cloud and cloudburst, cristel knew this and knew this very well, yet before cristel could ponder on it any further, mirage had already gotten the distracted tenderals away and out of the way and mirage managed to get the vorpal axe, yes its look is an axe, and they got it outside the castle window before the two leaped out of it themselves right before the diamond king himself came in, seeing what became of the room, and the missing vorpal axe, but not the duo themselves.., and through the gaps of what cristel can see, the diamond king was about as tall as zavy and if not than taller, looking like below within what light you can see of him.

as the two began running, running as far as they can go, cristel, with the vorpal axe in its holdster and around her, she asked.

"w-what was that scream?.., when I helped you with that tenderal thing.."

and cristel could see their face turning paler than their white paint and hair color, as they answered..

"r-red K-king s-starlight...."
