Forum:Shadowkeeper Apocalypse (Reworked): Difference between revisions

Line 76:

After much sacrifice and determination, the Guardians succeeded in killing Kirito, Asuna, and the Shadowkeepers, driving the Shadow Army and Ghosts of Nagasaki away, saving Mal, and destroying the Darkness for good. Despite this momentous victory, various figures of the Shadow Army, including Kirito and Asuna's eldest son [[Forum:Tatsuyi Kirigaya, Vibebreaker of Shadows|Tatsuyi Kirigaya]], would resurrect the Shadowkeepers and his parents as [[Nightmares]] and attempt to carry on the Shadowkeeper Apocalypse, either for their own purposes or to finish what the Shadow Army elites and the Darkness had started in destroying the Guardians. Despite these new foes, the Guardians maintained their strength and determination, while also contending with major threats besides the Shadow Army and Ghosts of Nagasaki.

{{Quote|We have watched over majicks and worlds since the stars were young. But man has destroyed the balance. Just as they tried to destroy you." "But you brought us back. Why?" "Because you can right what the [[Guardian|mortals]] made wrong." "How do you know that?" "You come from their world, but fight for ours. You will be the Black Swordsman and Lightning Flash, Overlords of Shadows. You will be the instruments of our reckoning.|The [[Darkness]], speaking to Kirito and Asuna.}}

You will be the Black Swordsman and Lightning Flash, Overlords of Shadows. You will be the instruments of our reckoning... the heralds of our ascension. With your powers, we can finally destroy the Light once and for all.|The [[Darkness]], speaking to Kirito and Asuna.}}

Some time after the Guardians' victory during the events of [[Lightfall]], the [[Darkness]], having found a still-open portal, used its dying breath to send the [[Black Fleet]] into the dimensional gateway to recruit its new allies: Kirito and Asuna. Having known firsthand about how they had seen what it saw and mourned for the deaths of their friends and of innocence, the Darkness not only gave them back their powers from Sword Art Online, but also granted them permanent access to its Pyramids, knowing that they can succeed where its previous forces failed.
