Delta Memory - Deltarune AU

Chapter 37 - The last Shadow Crystal

Once the fountain is closed, we all wake up slowly in the Holiday mansion, all those deaths start having a weight on our morale, today Noelle is dead, her mother Carole was killed by her, earlier during our adventures we lost Tapster and now we lost another councilor, Melody. But the worst lose was Gerson as he were a Delta Guardian with me and the Angel.

After a few moments of reflection, the Angel decide to take Dess as the third Delta Guardian in order to finish the prophecy, as she fits the role of being a monster.

We gather together outside in the garden of Holiday mansion to evaluate the current situation. So our group was made of me, Angel, Dess, Fluffy, Ace, Ralsei and Susie. But I can't stop thinking of Ouijo and Helli, are they alright? It is strange, Kris followed us in the Dark World, does it means they are dead? And where is Kris? We didn't even saw them, did they flee?

Susie-"So, uh. We are going where now?"

Angel-"We are going to castle town, the dark world of Ralsei located in the abyss. Your dark world is located in the school closet, is it right little prince?"

Ralsei nods but seems not at ease. And our group walk to the school in order to get to that last Dark World of our journey. I then start speaking.

Player-"So, we are going there to close fountain, we don't check our citadel first is everyone okay?"

Angel-"Oh don't worry vessel. Kris don't know about my Dark World, and the passage in only open during night, it is currently noon, we have some times. Let's hurry through to deal with that last Dark World through."

Fluffy-"We are going to close Ralsei Dark World, you are okay with that Ralsei?"

Ralsei-"Kris stole it, it is just a castle of pain now, where he gathered the evil apostles and darkners to accomplish their dark plans to cause the roaring. Whatever control them isn't as peaceful as Vessel so we have to take back the castle."

Ace-"But you do agree, we have to close the Dark Fountain?"

Ralsei-"I... It is my place... where I feel at home... I dunno if I will like being in the Angel Citadel..."

Angel-"You know... once we will get the last shadow crystal, I will use my powers to create a new world, a new reality, freeing all of us. Many darkners suffer from being imprisoned in their dark world and never seeing the light. I will end it. Help us Ralsei. You want Darkners to be happy?"

Ralsei-"Yes. You are right. And as a caring Prince, I care about darkners and friends... let's go."

After some walk and entering the school, we move to the closet and all jump in as we end appearing in front of a fence and fortification walls holding spectral blue flames, behind a town, quite empty made of black houses and in background the castle with a Dark Fountain pouring from it.

Player-"So this is... where the Delta Warriors were... operating from the start? It does have a special feel or nostalgia and coziness... It is strange but the architecture is oddly similar to our citadel."

Angel-"It is really strange indeed. This is quite a big coincidence..."

Ralsei stay silent suspiciously and don't answer questions as he holds his glasses and move forward opening the gate.

Susie-"Hey buddy. You are alright? It is the first time you are so silent!"

Ralsei-"It's... fine. This is not the right moment. Let's deal with them first."

Some darkners guards the courtyard of the castle and Spade King stand in front of the castle Town door. We kill the Darkners with ease as we have divine magic, dark magics, Ace retro like magical attacks and my fighting skills and we reach the King.
