Nito Nazuna the 8th Archon

Paralogism! I believe in second chances.

Nito hear the doors open as Nicredo and Hiiro enters in. The Pyro Archon spoke curious "Did you called us, Nito-senpai?"

"Yeah. What we can do for you, father?" His son with dragon features ask as Nito looks at dahlia as he explain again everything.

Hiiro have many mixing feelings right now. Part of him wants to do this but another one held hatred and anger. He felt conflicted as he clench his fist "I hoped that Durin has already pass away."

"There's one piece of remnant so hidden in the heart and must have been dormant until now. We never expected this outcome." The Deacon explains as Nito looks serious at Hiiro and Nicredo.

The homunculus with dragon features looks down worried "..." Hiiro also is in the same dilemma. "Dahlia. If you don't mind I want them to think it for one day. You know, this thing about Durin is... A very sore subject for all us."

"I understand." He stood as he looks at them "I am sorry for bring Durin back. I didn't mean to—"

"Is okay." Hiiro smiles with melancholy "I just need time. That's all." Nicredo didn't say anything as Dahlia vows his head and left the throne room.

"You two can say no. Nobody is forcing both of you." The Lux Archon spokes softly at them as Nicredo smiles "Thanks father. Just..." They stood there silence as he spoke again "Go, take your time. I will understand whatever choices you will choice. But I am worried about what is going on in Monstadt. If what Daglia said is true and monster are beginning to mimicking people. This could with time extend to the other nations as well."

Hiiro looks at him "Can I discuss it with Alkaloid and Crazy:B?" The blond nods "Of course. Do what you think is the right thing Hiiro." He nod as he turns around and began to walk towards the entrance.

"You are not alone. You can count on us always... Hiiro-chin."

Those soft and caring words make the God of Courage smile softly "I know... Nito-senpai..."

Ensemble Square.

In one of the meeting rooms....

Alkaloid and the rest of Crazy:By sat around the table with worried and somber looks.

Aira raise his head as he spoke "I am not sure about this..." Kohaku was about to speak before a unexpected slam took everyone be surprise.

BAM!

Everyone turns to Nikki who just slammed the table as he grits his teeth "Helping bring Durin back! I am against it!" Tatsumi raise his head as he spoke "I understand your feelings Nikki. Everyone does. We know what he did to Rinne. But... This is not the same Durin that controlled Hiiro. We talk another version of himself that lived in a dimensional plain."

"Simulanka or real world is still Durin... I... I can't accept it after losing Rinne!" The member with grey hair spoke with pain as Kohaku put his arm in his shoulders "I know. I do as well... But we need to understand as well that this Durin isn't the old enemy we fought."

"And then what? What happen when we put the remnants of the corrupted Durin on this version! Could it even control this! Could he even still be the same or stray the same path as that monster version of itself?!" He spoke angry as everyone didn't say anything.

Meanwhile.

Windrise tree

Venti sat in the ladders that leads to the tree as he was playing another song with his lyre. He smiles as he felt something manifest behind him. "So Dahlia told you huh~*"

"Stop joking. This is something you shouldn't joke." The blond spoke serious. "You are playing with fire, Barbatos."

The Anemo Archon stops playing as he turns to him "I understand well. I know about Rinne so well Nito. But we need their help with this. There is one last fragment of his in Dragonspine and it moved for now in the shadows changing and stealing many identities of the City of Monstadt. Jean is handling it for now but we could be more help with Hiiro. After all he embrace the good and bad of Durin. The fallen dragon."
