[ Greetings people of the tower, have the King of Evil who cursed the tower this month appear on the terminals, for the first time in over six months. He looks fairly neutral, with a very light smile. ]

So long as it been since I last posted here, and yet I see nothing changed. The same cycle has been repeating over and over again, both here and where we come from. Higher powers play with those they see as inferior... Cruel and pointless games meant to satisfy their own amusement. From the tortured crowds sometimes a voice arise, then many--

But at the first bone tossed their way, the mindless masses go back in rank behind the higher powers they chose to venerate as deities. At the first occasion to forget, they chose blissful ignorance. Yes... In the end, complacency reigns. People always return to their meaningless preoccupations and lose of sight what should matter most.

[ He pauses and shakes his head in disapproval before continuing. ]

Have voice even been heard in this tower? Many entertained -and without a doubt still do- the idea that following certain golden haired women would bring them what they longed for. Yet, nothing happened. All they did was replace a deplorable situation with another, build a false hope they could comfort themselves with. All they did was turn a blind eye on reality.

Not a voice arise to stand against the status quo. [A very short and deep chuckle.] How pathetic. Tell me, Tower of Animus, do you not believe time has come for you to awaken and bring about an end to this?

[Because he knows the game and he knows that ranting in answer will do nothing except amuse the poster.

Though, seriously Ganondorf. Seriously?]

[And he thought Izanami was bad, monologuing on how humanity did much of this very thing. Though, if he believed that of everyone... well, he learned long ago that not everyone will listen to anything but what they wish to. It would only amuse him if he even responded, even though this triggered him when he saw it...

Nope. Going to simply keep an eye on this. He isn't foolish enough to speak over the network on certain subjects as it is; this being one of them.]

People aren't ignorant, the truth is just kept away from them, thanks to you.

We can find a way to end this without following someone who's only in this for himself.

[Yeah, Ryoji knows he'll probably get in trouble for this, especially if whatever Ganon did to his shadow is still in effect, but he can't help it. He needs to let his voice be heard somehow, because he's still too afraid to tell anyone he cares about in person.]

Truth cannot be trusted into the hands of those who would use it in favor of these very deities. They would twist it and shape in what pleases them most. Deviate it from its intended use.

Truth is a weapon.

As for your accusations, I see no basis to them.

[ Speak about a courageous and brave hero.

Seriously. ]

[...

A picture is worth a thousand words.]

Bored, are we?

[Well, given the recent lack of network activity apart of one certain post, Riku can make guesses what Yu is looking at right now and he does seem about as impressed as Riku himself is. (Meaning not at all. >.>;)

He keeps his voice low when he steps up behind Yu out of habit and precaution - walls got ears and all. It certainly doesn't hurt to be careful.]

Pretty full of himself, isn't he?

Hey, who the hell said we were being complacent? Some of us are actually trying to do something about being stuck here, instead of making everyone else miserable!

[...says the person that follows other people around like a puppy dog.]

[Your words, not his. >.>;

You know... that kind of villain speech usually takes place somewhere around the beginning of the end. Let's hope you aren't jinxing yourself there.

...On the other hand. Let's hope you are. :|]

[That it is, and considering who it was, it's likely going to be interesting. ..and he might need to get a few people to stop, but shh. He can hope his friends don't act out on impulse!]

Yeah. [He looks up, glad it's just Riku as he keeps his voice down as well.] It sure seems like it.

[ The Evil King is unimpressed. ]

Indeed, princess. This month has been pretty uneventful ever since your friends faithfully played the role of the Hero of Time in our story. Such a shame their exploits ended there.

[ A low chuckle and he shakes his head. ]

I did say it. You have not done anything of consequences. You imagine yourself as a hero who actually tries to do something, don't you boy? I commend your spirit. But please entertain me.

Tell me what you have accomplished so far that is a step toward freedom? A step toward independence? A step toward the revival of your world?

[Luke let out a soft noise, looking like Ganondorf just stomped on a puppy in front of him. After a moment, his gaze shot away from the screen, focusing on some point on the floor.]

...I'm not a hero.

[Because that was what Van said he'd be when he got to Akzeriuth... but then what Van had in mind would have made him the complete opposite.]

[As is the Seventh Sage.]

How fortunate, then, that next month likely belongs to Jason. Perhaps he will do us all a favor and sew your mouth shut.

I know.

[ Spoken on a casual and normal tone. ]

You displayed none of the qualities expected from the heroes. I am pleased you have the discernment to realize it.

[And to think she enjoyed being on team villain, too.

He reminds her of someone she knew a long time ago who was also intent on overthrowing tyrannical rulers.]

[Luke scrunched his face up, finally glancing back at the screen after a moment.]

...we can only do what we can. I try to help out where I can, but I'm only one person. And after everyone found out just how we're all brought back to life after we die? I... can't blame people for being scared.

[It didn't bother him so much; he was already a replica. Other people? Asch? Yeah, he was worried for them.]

As interesting as this sounds, rather than silence me he would do better doting you with the capability to speak less nonsense. It is my belief we would all grow stronger if you ceased to be the naive little girl who once accomplished my will.

[ ~~Don't compare him to Volgin now.~~

Besides those with the "good guys" aren't really better. ]

[... Not gonna let him get to her not gonna let him get to her not gonna let--]

And yet, you would not have accomplished anything had I not been that "naive little girl."

Amusing, how that works out, hm? And further reason to disregard this monologue, as you have accomplished no more than the rest of us. It could be argued that you have accomplished even less.

oink oink

[~~How did you know??~~

Yes, but she was hoping it wouldn't come down to "taunt the good guys." You can't sabotage things if you're letting everyone know you pressed the big shiny button.]

I approve.

Because delivering bad villain speeches to the tower is going to accomplish so much more.

If you're gonna make a villain speech, at least make it interesting and not a complete snoozefest.
