Hey KH13, i'm back with the 3rd part of my story ! After Gamble's abrupt death, we begin to see a new face known as Prince Virgil or just Virgil. This part is quite short compared to the other 2 parts. I hope you enjoy I felt that the last one was rushed so i've tried to improve this next part.

Over in Division 7, the almighty Virgil sits on his throne of bones. His palace was beyond royalty! 5 hollow skulls hung across the ceiling, light shone through each on. Even the floor was an obscure mixture of crimson and gold! A vast portrait behind the throne depicted a younger Virgil, he looked so faultless. Yusuke, his older brother stood with his arms folded… But his sister was a goddess, olive complexion with silky violet hair. Raindrops for eyes and a smile that made even Satan smirk.His two servants that surrounded his throne gently stroked his jagged silver hair, whilst he blindly threw darts across a 200 foot wide room. The darts would often blind the straw puppets. Bored wasn’t the word, the current state of affairs was so disrupted Virgil was shocked that he was so idle.Fortunately, the boredom eased when the ceiling collapsed. Gravel flung across the room, up, down, left, right and centre. The pillars that once held the roof up intensely slammed down against the floors and caused a violent “THUD” sound. You could hear the stones colliding against one another. With that being said, Virgil and his subordinates remained unscathed. In fact, when the thick smoke faded, his hair was still being rubbed. His throne was unharmed, but his face seemed quite ashy. Stood in front of him was Adrian (the overseer of Division 7), Adrian looked slightly mad, he stood with his arms folded. He opened his mouth.“Knock knock.”“Thanks for destroying my palace, you narcissistic prick.”“Watch your language. The entirety of Division 7 is under huge threat.”“So, you require my assistance to help you kill the Marauders?”“How did you know? That information is only known to the council.”“Gossip spreads like fire if it’s in the wrong hands.”Virgil snapped his fingers, a ball of flames danced in the palms of his hands.“I suggest we move swiftly and silently. If the overseer and the prince are spotted together, the public will know that something is wrong. Come.”Virgil waved farewell to his servants as they began repairing the palace. Adrian can make one hell of an entrance.

I don't think the second part was too rushed, it actually fitted very well to make Gamble's death even more abrupt.

 

I really like this part man

This Virgil seems to be an interesting and very strong guy.

 

Adrian can make one hell of an entrance.

 

 

Nice pun

Virgil's arrival marks a turning point after Gamble's death. The atmosphere of the Bone Throne and its simultaneously majestic and somber setting creates a completely different tone compared to previous games. It feels like the story is unfolding more broadly, no longer solely focused on Gamble, but rather like the world is developing in more detail. Also, I understand what you meant about the rush in the second game: it feels more controlled, as if you took the time to build each scene. Incidentally, this is slightly off topic, but your story made me realize that I enjoy following long-form stories... which is why I became interested in sports betting communities. Lately, I've been using Wageon Bet, mainly because it's easy and pays out quickly (which, admittedly, is rare). I'm not saying it's story-driven, but it's funny how one interest can lead to another.

Like, according to the lore, they're not just "monsters," but essentially creatures born from the darkness of the human heart. And in most cases, they act on instinct, without emotion, but it's still interesting to imagine what if someone retains at least some "awareness," like Sora briefly did when he became Shadow By the way, it's like in real life sometimes when you just get stuck in the same routine, as if on autopilot. At those moments, I distract myself with something simple, like sports or even betting (purely for fun, without going overboard). I recently got hooked on a website called wageon bet it's easy to follow matches and everything works quickly. It's not exactly an advertisement, I'm just sharing this in case anyone else enjoys sports alongside games.
