Another life

Saint or Satan

Brim studies a book

Ace walks looking around: hm? Lady Brimstone, is it just me or are there more gaurds around today
He walks up to her

Brim: we had an incident earlier
She closes the book and looks at him: welcome back

Ace chuckles: thank you
Ace eye's soften: I needed a small break

Brim chuckles: learn anything?

Ace: their lands there are much more peaceful but I believe they have plans to extend their empire. The propaganda themes to a happier life under their kingdom. It persuades people to stay

Brim: alright good
Brim: glad you came home safe, feel free to eat or take a rest

Ace: before I do so, may I ask what the incident was?

Brim: I don't really know, Eclipse had a tussle In the garden but there were no intruders

Ace: the young prince, doesn't remember who he fought?

Brim: no

Ace: is he alright?

Brim nods: headed back to his castle early

Ace: I wish i got to see him before he was on his way. Was there any other incidents?

Brim: not that I remember no
Brim: normal day

Ace nods: I think I'll take my rest and nibble on something. Has the-

He can see serrati on top of the throne like how tell would be

Ace is caught off gaurd: hello there, my apologies I missed you

Brim: hm?

Ace: I'm a Ace a pleasure to meet you

Brim follows aces gaze then back at him
Brim: what are you on about?

Ace: there's a woman above your throne, she sits on it just as Tell would.

Brim: Ace nobody's there
Brim laughs: go rest my friend

Ace glances at her one more time: perhaps your right
Ace walks off
Serrati watches him/mind: it is the same trickster

A memory clicks
Clickx: I was called.....ace
Rings in her head

Serrati stands up straight: he's past Clickx!
Serrati covers her mouth then gets off the throne

Brim doesn't hear her and continues reading

Serrati goes after Cl-Ace
Serrati/mind: this is the past, I've met Ace in another time with Nightmare and now Brimstone Mare. Will he remember me?
Ace turns a corner and when Serrati reaches it Ace is gone
Serrati/mind: that meant Clickx is old old. He must know a lot of tricks and that's why he can see me

Guards walk past her abruptly down the hall

Serrati follows the gaurd
*meanwhile
Ace is back at Brimstone's throne
Ace: your highness, mind me enough to ask a final question. Did you happen to meet anyone new recently? Perhaps a lady with a large cape?

Brim tilts her head
Brim: no why?
Brim: are you feeling well

Ace: has Eclipse made any new friends that may fit the description

Brim: again no, why

Ace looks around not finding the girl.
Ace: I have a strange feeling
Ace chuckles to himself: maybe it was the tea they served, perhaps it was night time tea and I'm only now finding myself tired
Ace: apologies for the confusion Lady Brimstone
