Dorian waits in his little hiding spot until dark and then sneaks back into the opal palace and manages to get to his armor and put it back on again and as he tries to sneak out of the palace again he finds the courtyard filled with soldiers waiting for him.
"Hope you boys weren't waiting on little old me." Dorian says sarcastically, he hears a noise behind him and turns around just in time to see a club crashing into his face.
He wakes up to find he is chained to the ground in a kneeling position and the man he can only assume is the man he was looking to kill sitting on a throne before him.
"Seluné wrote you this note? I vaguely remember her. She the one I stabbed through the back with her own sword? I was a bit disappointed, she didn't put up much of a fight." The Opal King says holding the note Dorian has carried with him since finding her body.
"Your clearly not afraid of death or being tortured so how about this. You give up the other two and your free to go." The Opal King says and Dorian just laughs
"Your soldiers are all but worthless but it's not surprising if your skills at lying are any indicator." Dorian says
"Okay then. Give them up and I won't kill you. I'll even let you keep the note from your previous Seluné." The Opal King says in a sarcastic tune
"I'm gonna make you wish you were never born." Dorian responds
"Have it your way then." The Opal King says before ripping the note into a bunch of tiny pieces as Dorian yells at the top of his lungs while tears roll freely down his cheeks. He tells until he kisses his voice and even then he continues to yell random obscenities about how he is going to kill the opal king as he gets beaten after getting thrown into another cell.

[OOC: Wait, EvilBoy, did your character separate from us? I'm kinda confuzzled]
(OOC: Yeah, after he took his swords from Vitus' neck he walked away from Vitus and Ellie)

(OOC: Oops, forgot to mention Ellie's reaction to Dorian's retreat! Sorry about that )
(OOC: tried to edit the spelling errors and it completely reposted lol my bad. Doing this on a phone is tricky haha)
The sun has already dropped back behind the mountains and the night begins to ascend. Vitus watches Dorian leave and tilts his head in confusion, "Does he separate from you often?" He asks Ellie. That idiot is gonna get himself killed. Does he habve any regards for his friend at all? "No doubt they'll be looking for us. After all, their one prisoner escaped. Now, I take it you'll want a proper funeral for your friend?" Vitus asks, walking to Tyler's body and slinging it over his shoulder. "Unless Dorian comes back soon, which, quite frankly, I don't see happening, we should get as far away from here as we can," Vitus says. He looks at the sky in confusion. Strange, I didn't expect night to come so quickly.
[OOC: Yeah, I prefer this on computer I just realized that for the vast majority of this RP, Dorian has been separated from us ]
(OOC: Coincidentally, I'm typing this on mobile...and yeah, when's Dorian gonna join back in our crew )
Ellie rubs her eyes out of exhaustion as she hears Dorian's retreating footsteps. "Yep." she replies curtly and stands up from her position. She nods and watches as Vitus throws Tyler dead body over his shoulder. Immediately she stiffens. "Handle him with care, the poor guy isn't a sack of meat." she retorts sharply, walking behind him. "He has a bullet through his head. He might spill even more blood if you hold him like that." Her bossy personality couldn't help but shine the slightest bit as she tenderly places a hand on the back of his head, repeating apologies over and over again in her mind.

The guards continue to beat Dorian with clubs and one his him in the back of the head abd Dorian drops limply onto the cold floor in a pool of his own blood.
Dorian breathes shallowly slowing his heart beat.
"Did you kill him? Check his pulse, we were supposed to keep him alive!" One guard says panicking as another checks his pulse then picks up Dorian's arm and let's it go watching as it limply drops to the floor.
"Hes dead..." One of the guards says before cursing under his breath.
"Let's take him to the rubbish river. Let him flies out with all the rotten meat and chamber pot waste" theguard who checked his pulse says
"This is a new way of disposing of me" Dorian says in his mind as they carry his limp body to the steam that flows out of the opal palace and dump his lifeless body into the river, he flows downstream and eventually finds himself free falling into a lake before he takes control of his body again and swims under water, cleaning himself as he does so till he teaches the shore and climbs out of the water and walks through the forest not caring what happens to him anymore, the only thing he had from Seluné now torn to shreds, he walks aimlessly through the forest like the living dead. The light in his eyes that always hinted at mischief no longer burning behind his irises.

Vitus doesn't even think about saying anything in response. He recognizes Ellie's pain, as Brutus and Cynthia were killed right in front of his eyes. Vitus acknowledges what she says and after she stops caressing his head, he carries Nico in his arms, rather than over his shoulder. "I know you're hurt right now, but we should hurry. You won't have time to mourn his loss if you're dead," he says, picking up his pace and hoping Ellie will obey. Vitus has no doubts that the Palace guards are searching for them, along with every bandit, bounty hunter, and villager in the area.

"I'm fully aware of that." Ellie grumbles, but reluctantly obeys nonetheless. She walks by his side until she stops by a clear area, near a river. "This'll work, I think." she says, kicking at the soft dirt with the toe of her boot. "Easy to dig out." She knelt down and pulls out a spear, before beginning to dig out a hole in the dirt. She made sure it was a slight distance away from the river.
Dorian walks along the river and eventually comes to a clearing and finds Vitus, Ellie and Tyler's body. He walks aimlessly past them, not even realising that they are there.
"So why are you hunting down the Opal King?" Vitus asks Ellie, using the heel of his boot to help dig out the hole after he lays Tyler's body against a tree. He doesn't seem upset, rather just cautious of how Ellie may act. Vitus knows from experience how crazy someone could go after a death.
Ellie is just about to reply to Vitus' question when she catches Dorian walking right past them. Her mouth opens, hesitating to say something or to call out to him, before she shakes her head and looks back down again. It's not worth it. She continues digging. "Apparently he's related to this murder of a young girl named Serra - who might be related to me, I'm not sure." she replies honestly, standing up once the hole is big enough. "I wanted to ask Tyler more about it, but...the time never really came."
Dorian continues walking, not really aware of his surroundings, he just keeps muttering. "I'm sorry." Over and over again his eyes are dead like he has lost all hope and faith in himself, like the world ended and he wasn't allowed to die, he was living in his own personal hell at that time.
"Amnesia?" Vitus asks, his interest peaked by Ellie's confusion as to whether Serra was a relative. "And yes, it appears to be a little late for questions." Vitus yawns and looks around, spotting Dorian. Vitus quickly pretends he didn't notice and continues on with his train of thought. "My wife was killed in a village slaughter," Vitus says, showing Ellie his wedding ring. His voice softens and shows the first bit of real emotion. "That's when I teamed up with Cynthia and Brutus. We vowed to kill the Opal Asshole. Obviously it didn't go so well. We got in and got our fight with him, screwed him up pretty bad. He was strong, had these...mind control powers...made us all have weird dreams...visions. I saw my wife everywhere I looked. Then the three of us chose to retreat. I made it out..." Vitus says, returning her honesty with his own.
Ellie shrugs an shakes her head in reply. "If I had amnesia, then I probably wouldn't remember if I even had it." she mutters sarcastically, looking over to Tyler's body. She's about to kneel down to bury him before Vitus begins his story. Immediately she feels pity and sympathy for his story. "I'm sorry about that." she says with a weak smile. We've all been through tough times, all because of that Opal King. She worries abut how powerful the king must be, to have mind powers and such. She keeps silent before moving Tyler's body near the hole.
Dorian walks up to Ellie and stops right next to her looking down at Tyler with his dead eyes.
"It's all my fault isn't it?" Dorian asks quietly while looking down at Tyler, head tilted to the side a little bit, if Dorian want crazy before he seems about to lose his mind now.
