[It's a peaceful, melodic sound, washing over the feed. The sound of lapping waves, the light, balmy breeze... and the distant sound of an aged man, moaning softly as the sand begins to shift.
As the view comes more into focus, a large furred husk takes up most of it, pushing himself up from the ocean's grasp to blink slowly at his surroundings.]
Where...?
[He stares for a moment longer, brow furrowing in thought, before his memories catch up with him - the Clock, the explosion...
His last words to Ratchet, and one last look at the pocketwatch he held so dear.
With a gasp, he quickly searches his own pockets, sighing in relief at the metallic feel, grateful to whatever force out there that it had still been in one piece. That, and his Praetorian Omniwrench, which laid a few feet from where he'd collapsed.
Considering this world was still in one cohesive piece, he knows that he'd successfully reverted his mistake. And... wherever he was now, this was where he was meant to be.
Except he hadn't expected death to be so... wet. The Lombax's ears droop over his shoulders, heavy with saltwater and dripping down to the sand. And that's where he spots the SFC, laying right next to his wrench. Curious at this little piece of machinery - certainly not Lombax build, that was for sure - he picks it up.
Hello, Vatheon. Meet the General.]

Re: [ Video ]
Well everyone was getting sick with different things. Probably a curse. This city likes to put curses on people. It's tied to the tattoo you have on your body somewhere now.

[And sure enough, Alister checks his body for any unusual markings - lifting his armour and checking the inside of it, frowning a little when he spies a little extra black on his collarbone.
The elder Lombax frowns at being branded like of the Agorians' beasts, placing his chestplace back in place in distain.]
Well, that's just fantastic. I wouldn't mind spending my eternity here, but to be physically bound to this city?

[A shrug.]
Sorry but that's how it goes. And don't think of shaving. It's under the skin too, I checked.
And the magic coral can be a bitch I guess.

Ratchet, I...
How severe are these 'curses'? What you're describing is just an illness, but have there been any to drastically change one's mental state? What usually happens during a curse?
[Because the timeline where he'd actually killed Ratchet was... worrying. There could be a relapse and he'd never know about it.]

But that was besides the point.]
So the curses do affect your mental state, but not... to an extreme. I mean...
No. Even during a 'curse', I know you wouldn't intentionally harm anyone.

Just...
Contact me. When you're ready to talk. Can you do that much?
