Walter sobbed in Kolliah's arms. He felt exhausted by what was happening -- Completely emotionally strained by the going-ons, the memories flooding him. They were so horrible. They were just so unbelievably awful. He barely noticed when the world around them had fizzled. He was still experiencing how horrible everything was.
But then his memories shifted in mood, in color. Especially in color, just color. A creature pulled him in - Spite - it pulled into a world, into Concordia and from there, it was as if his life had shifted from a horror genre to a fantasy one. He remembered it all; The war, the necromancers, Todd, just... Todd. A lot of Todd. Todd was his best friend (and crush, hah). He remembered teasing him a whole lot when they first met. He remembered how terrified he felt when he first saw him turn into a werewolf. He remembered that feeling of betrayal when Todd didn't care about what Life City was doing to innocent people. He remembered it all.
And he ran, he ran all the way to Death City, and there he met Lord Bibentus, who saw his potential and trained him, sharpened the skills he already had. Made him a force to be reckoned with.
They were going to stop the war. Walter had been taken out of his world, chosen by the gods to stop a war that Jiirki, the monkey-man who took his memories in the first place had caused. And they failed, didn't they? They were both forced into this world by that same trickster. The same god. The memories ended on that note. That he and Todd failed to save an entire world.
He shook in Kolliah's arms, silent.
