I Will Be Waiting With Open Arms

23:35 TeslaTornado Ade retreats, momentarily, into the Nothing.
23:36 TeslaTornado Sometimes there are presences that are simply… Remarkable.
23:36 TeslaTornado Through fortitude of mind or body or simply just boorish pride, there is… A trace. An imprint. A matchbook-flicker of consciousness in the screaming masses that refuses to die out.
23:37 TeslaTornado A voice, crying out to not be forgotten before they are taken into the oblivion.
23:37 TeslaTornado It's just a hunch, he thinks, just an idea, a snowball's chance in a house fire.
23:37 TeslaTornado But maybe he can hunt this Silvinski fellow out and glean a last few words out of him.
23:42 TeslaTornado Branko Silvinski.
23:42 TeslaTornado Roll me one last MDEF.
23:42 TesKin 4df+3 The last time.
23:42 Glacon TesKin: The last time.: 6 (4df+3=+, 0, +, +)
23:45 TeslaTornado Branko.
23:45 TeslaTornado Your mind is alive.
23:45 TeslaTornado Hold for description.
23:48 Nemi The Nothing feels like anything but. The yawning void is alive with motion, of countless presences all vying to position to see the little spark within the dark. Curious hands writhe about one another like serpents, reaching about and cupping the spark that is Branko, as if to prevent the others from taking it for themselves.
23:48 Nemi It's so quiet and yet the hums of bemusement, of detached amusement, of fear and worry, all resonate through the nothingness around you and what /is/ you.
23:49 TeslaTornado The fraying edges of your mental fabric are pulled and torn in every direction as the writhing presences attempt to drag themselves away from you, and then all at once, a familiar voice thrums through the presence that is your mind and all the Nothing about you.
23:49 TeslaTornado And it utters a single word.
23:50 TeslaTornado BEGONE.
23:51 TeslaTornado And for a few precious moments, there is silence.
23:51 TeslaTornado And the voice speaks again.
23:51 TeslaTornado YOU HAVE BUT MOMENTS, BRANKO SILVINSKI.
23:52 TeslaTornado SPEAK YOUR FINAL WORDS AND BE AT PEACE.
23:52 TesKin "Don't let them forget me."
23:52 TesKin "Do not let my death be for nothing."
23:52 TeslaTornado Nothing more?
23:52 TesKin "Send as many as you can to the gates of hell, friend. I will be waiting with open arms."
23:53 TeslaTornado VERY WELL.
23:53 TeslaTornado NONE WILL FORGET YOUR NAME, BRANKO SILVINSKI.
23:53 TeslaTornado The presence draws away from you, and once more the Nothing begins to close in.
23:54 TeslaTornado It envelops you, tugging and tearing and embracing and pulling you towards the final end that all thinking things confront.
23:54 TeslaTornado And soon, Branko Silvinski goes quietly into that dark night.
23:54 TeslaTornado And there is nothing more.
