It's been a bit longer than a week, and we took the day to just relax.
Mimir and Kratos were in the living room as I was just getting done with some drinks I was preparing.

M: *laughter*

K: "What are you giddy about Mimir?"

M: "Oh, I'm just replaying that start up to that fight a little while ago."

K: "About it?"

M: "Ethan nearly clean kicked his bloody head off.
Still the funniest thing I've seen."

I finished the drinks and walked back over.

E: "Here ya go lads."

M: "Kratos, could ya-"

I placed a straw in the cup and pointed it towards it.

M: "What is that?"

E: "You've never heard of a straw?"

M: "Oh."

I kicked up and relaxed.

E: "Damn, it's been crazy."

M: "Indeed."

It was quiet for a little while.

K: "So, Ethan."

E: "Hmm?"

K: "What is your backstory, before the demon?"

E: "Ah.
Well, the day I was learning the blacksmith arts, I was actually relearning.
Before Entity and before being known throughout all 9 realms.
I was the best forger ever, I made all types of insane blades, tools armor and much more, because I was able to give myself the best materials ever."

M: "Oh, What happened that made you stop?"

I took off my shirt, and they see a red mark on my entire left side.

K: "Oh."

M: "My God."

E: "A terrible accident that was caused, by my father.
I had my forge full of unused liquid molds, and he "accidentally" pushed a bucket over that was on the high shelf.
It was a bucket of Molten Titanium, from shoulder to top of my leg, it covered me.
I was able to rush into the near by river to cool it down, but I couldn't clear the pain from the burn.
I destroyed the forge out of rage, ran back to my mother house.
For the first time in my life, I actually cried in my mother's arms.
She was able to heal it but only clear the pain and not the marking.
That's why I was relearning the forge.
And that's was everything before Ent, I didn't even know Entity was apart of me till I was Atreus's age, and it was a bad version of him the convinced me horrible things, leading me down a path to where. I forced myself to disappear for many years, to get rid of the bad Ent, and merged with a more better minded Entity, aka the Ink Demon.
And my mind is blank from then."

M: "Christ, I heard stories from other lads about the man, but didn't know he was that cruel."

Brock has been hanging by, well the spirit of Brock.

B: "Holy ballsac, that actually happened!"

E: "It did, it was a few weeks before I met you."

B: "Huh."

K: "So, you have a scar from your past?"

E: "I say I have many, but that is one from my past of being human."

K: "Hm."

M: "How interesting this trio here.
A Demon, A God and A Wise man."

E: "It's just three lads having a conversation."

K: "Just because we have a title, doesn't mean we have to honor it in the proper way."

E: "Correct.
He's a god, but he goes his path the way he wants to.
I have a demon, but I live life normally and only use the power when necessary.
You just fit the role of wise cause you know more than both of us."

M: "Huh."

E: "Just because you have a title, doesn't mean you have to act as it.
Now in royalty that's a different story."

M: "Royalty?"

K: "Best not get into it."

E: "Agreed."

M: "What's so bad about royalty?"

E: "Uptight assholes, Rich assholes, the list goes on."

M: "Well are they all?"

K: "Yes."

M: "Well, your rich Ethan."

E: "I create my own money, they enslave others to make their money and threaten thing to them if they don't complete impossible tasks that will outcome with death."

M: "I'll shut up about it now."

K: "Are there any major foes you fear will be come to powerful?"

E: "If there was, I wouldn't be here relaxing."

M: "But do you always stay alert?"

E: "Well, you have no choice to be cautious now a days, especially with a connection to a whole other realm."

M: "What do you mean?"

E: "I made a decision where-
