having replayed the first part of drk again but the good version this time, i feel the fact the wol can get a second pair of hands at will from level uh, 80 on?, is severely underrepresented in fics
everyone keeps making angst about briefly possessing your own corpse during combat or summoning a shield of darkness and fear, but what about the sheer hilarity and versatility of TWO OF THEM
the scions tremble before them
#if you think mitr'a doesn't summon the shadow self to help him with carpentry or weaving you are wrong#play: mitr’a

Demanding Trader: But... didn't you just say you were looking for a worthy opponent?
Demanding Trader: The Qiqirn who stole my goods was a really fat guy! Bigger and stronger than the others. A leader or a chief, I would say.
Demanding Trader: I saw him running to the salt beach, where the Qiqirn have a camp. Please get my goods back
Fray: That's how it always ends... If no one wants to help, the heroes have to do it... That way you'll never become a Dark Knight...
fray sounds like the line at the supermarket is too long and it's pissing him off
Fray: ENOUGH!!!
Fray: Does it never stop? Is Eorzea completely populated by children? Can't anyone do anything alone anymore? Does everyone always have to beg the hero for help?
Fray: Mitr'a is just a Miqo'te too! With his own feelings and interests. Ax blows and Blitzra hurt him too! Nobody thinks about that, right?
Fray: We always only fight for others... Like back then, on the high seas, against the wet, damp primal...
Fray: “We’re not chosen! Let the chosen one fight!” - Pah, you hide behind such words! But what are you actually doing for Eorzea?
Fray: If you didn't always come with your annoying business, Mitr'a would already be a seasoned Dark Knight! Oh, really!
i think he's pissed. also apparently leviathan was way more terrifying to us that i ever got the impression it was. guess we ought to add fears of drowning to all our wols
Fray: You heard the voice, right?
Fray: You don't have to tell me what you heard. But I ask you this: are you willing to give up everything to answer the voice?
Fray: Your status, your reputation, your wealth - everything? Only after we have lost everything do we have the freedom to do anything. If you're ready, then... come with me! Leave Eorzea!
Fray: You will never be able to fulfill your destiny here. To be truly free. Here you will always have to take care of others. But if you turn your back on Eorzea - you can go your own way.
mitr'a:
mitr'a: is this about dawntrail
Brave Knight: What happened? Why the rush?
Able Knight: Order from above. Baron Drillemont has learned that we are operating with Mitr'a Alywd and has ordered that we return immediately. And with him in custody.
Brave Knight: In custody? What does that mean?
Able Knight: There have been... accusations made. He was seen in the Brume... speaking to the corpse of a condemned heretic.
Able Knight: Of course I don't believe that, but we know how serious such accusations are.
Brave Knight: Surely they just want to force a Behemoth on us... I mean, talk to a corpse? Do they think we're fools?
it's still funny to me that we get arrested not because we attacked a whole platoon of cops but because someone saw us kneeling by a corpse. fucking ishgard
the peanut gallery remains awkwardly placed. where the fuck did you guys come from. who are you even. get out
also this time i was actually paying attention and our shade was definitely puppeting original fray's body around for like a month. um. sorry about that dude. i won't tell sidurgu if you don't
Fray: Ha, ha! “Put down my weapon”? After what happened in Ul'dah? Are you crazy?
he's right
Fray: You still don't want to admit it, but you can't deny it. You can't deny what we've achieved.
Fray: Didn't I treat you well? I gave you a choice that none of your so-called friends gave you. Your so-called friends in the Scions or the Eorzean Alliance.
Fray: The choice to say no. Not to help. To think of yourself. To save yourself. I gave voice to your deepest desire to say no and made sure you heard it.
Fray: Open your eyes! Look! Do you see it now? I am you!
(in combat)
Dark Shadow: Hit me! As hard as you can! You can't kill me no matter how hard you try.
Dark Shadow: You cannot defeat me. I am a part of you.
Drillemont the Honest: Mitr'a, I stand by you! You also stood by us in our greatest need.
Dark Shadow: Assist him? Bet he has to save you again?
Dark Shadow: I...we were so close...
Dark Shadow: That's the problem!
Dark Shadow: Do you know how ridiculous this struggle must look to others?
Dark Shadow: Free yourself from the pain!
this still doesn't work quite well with the kind of person my wol is but damn if it is not more compelling to me than before. also as german is mitr'a's actual language i suspect this is what the shadow would be speaking, so it would be pretty confusing for the onlookers i think
Mitr'a Alywd: They are on your side... Because you bear their pain.
Mitr'a Alywd: But that's what you want, isn't it? You want to suffer. You will always look for someone whose pain you can carry. This is your nature.
Mitr'a Alywd: The Nature of the Dark Knight. It is your destiny. No one will ever do it better than you...
Mitr'a Alywd: You seek this pain. You seek suffering.
Mitr'a Alywd: You have made the final sacrifice. Therefore take this reward...
Mitr'a Alywd: Mitr'a...
Mitr'a Alywd: Mitr'a... I am the part of you that doesn't have what it takes to be a hero. Hide me. Deep in your heart.
Mitr'a Alywd: I will speak to you again. Because I know that you are stronger than me.
Mitr'a Alywd: What belongs together comes together.
Mitr'a Alywd: I will return within you and give you strength to protect the world. I will cry your tears. I will carry your burden. I will be your wrath.
Mitr'a Alywd: Let's travel together again.
i am actually feeling something besides annoyance this time. maybe even melancholy. you know, like a twelve year old or something.
but more importantly, i can actually work with this! thank FUCK
#also i feel i have some space for fae fuckery later ehehehehe#play: mitr’a#but seriously this is truly good when it's actually the complete thing instead of *waves disdainfully at the english version*#thank you ishikawa

Fray: Who attracts the opponent's attacks? Who protects the weak and wounded? Who takes sword blows and ether blasts directed at his friends without thinking about himself? It's the Dark Knight. If he falls to the ground, everything is lost.
i think they could stand to think a bit more about themselves so they don't die instantly but i'll take your word for it
Fray: It's becoming clearer... You remind me of someone... Someone I used to travel with. He set out to save the world. A long time ago ...
Fray: He became a real hero - averting a terrible threat. Fray: Being a hero can be a curse. The things you see... The wounds you suffer... The friends you lose...
Fray: The distance between us grew. Until we eventually separated.
Fray: Always keep your goal in mind, Mitr'a! You will save whom your heart tells you to save. Control your emotions and stand firm!
truly the execution matters so much. by this time i wanted to kick eng fray's entire ass but this guy is fine. it's not even that different. yet
Fray: Terrible... horrible... feared... Just the right opponent for you, I'd say.
thanks it's like you know me so well
got a bit long so
Fray: I see that you now use the Dark Force as a matter of course. You control your anger and your sadness and turn them into your weapon. Excellent.
Fray: The Dark Knight derives his power from these feelings. Don't deny them. Accept them. Use it. You just can't let them guide you. It's you who keeps them firmly in check.
Fray: Feelings like hatred and envy rarely come alone - just like the feelings from which they arise, the techniques of the dark power complement each other - they overlap each other and thus open paths to new techniques. Consider this.
i like how this version of the quests makes it clearer that dark knight is some sort of good sith dynamis black mage more than anything. also it goes into little bit more detail of its workings
Fray: One moment. This seems pretty dangerous to me. The brass blades can deal with the Amalj'aa much better. And besides, aren't the camp's residents themselves to blame if they leave its protection and venture too far out? Unarmed?
Fray: You're strong enough, there's no doubt about that, but is it really necessary for you to help someone out again? It is dangerous and the fools have their own situation to blame...
Fray: You feel fear, but you have it well under control. The ritual can wait. Let's help those abducted first.
oh so that's what this part is meant to be about. it's not actually fray having a personality crisis moment, i see now. lmao that makes more sense
Fray: Let's hope that those abducted have all found their way home. As soon as they left the camp, they were all gone. While we were still fighting...typical.
Fray: We saved the weak, once again. Let's return to Isembard. Then we can finally continue with the ritual.
well if i were them i would not have stayed either. stray giant swords and eldritch blasts and all that
Fray: Close your eyes, hold out your hand and concentrate. Let the feelings rise...
???: How many lives have already been in these hands?
???: Save... Protect... Defeat... Kill... Who can carry this heavy burden on their shoulders? For how long?
???: Save me! ...Protect him! ... Defeat them! ...Kill it! ... Who thinks of the heroes? Who thinks about their pain? The pain in her flesh and soul.
Fray: The ritual is over. Did you hear a voice again?
is it a bad time to say i find the 'serve, save, slave, slay' thing... edgy and bad. yeah it alliterates, but at the cost of clarity of purpose. my simple ass prefers this one
Fray: Mitr'a, the Dark Knight fights evil, but he doesn't boast about it. Do you also know why?
Fray: He is not a radiant paladin seeking justice for all. The well-being of the individual is sometimes, even often, in conflict with the well-being of the general public. The Dark Knight protects the weak, but he cannot protect all.
Fray: He has often been condemned for this attitude by those seeking help. But the Dark Knight is what he is.
Fray: What do you think? Could you betray thousands to protect one?
Fray: Not an easy question, right? It is part of the Dark Knight's dilemma, part of his Dark Power. But I'll tell you one thing: you don't have to carry the pain of the whole world on your shoulders. You can not do it. The burden will crush you, take your breath away.
Fray: That would be the end. If you fall to the ground, everything is lost. No one protects the Dark Knight... Argh...
Fray: It's... happening again. Sorry, but I'm a little tired.
fuck. how can the english version suck balls so much. who did that whereisthetranslatordoomguyinhell.jpg

unavoidable that you will be the villain in someone else's story. You will be painted in an unfavorable light. You will be the irredeemable one. and all of this will happen despite how nice you might usually be or how kind or how respectful or how warm. and you will just have to move on.
