1st Kata - A Blunt Intro For an Edgelord

[mightmakesright]

My name is Vergil. As one of the newest "Starfallen", I have been made aware of this world's troubles. The responsibility of saving it falls to us, but if I am to truly cooperate with others, I will keep no secrets as to what this world now deals with.

I am the eldest son of a legendary demon, the dark knight Sparda, who rebelled against his own kind to free humanity from enslavement. Though I tried to emulate him, my foolish pursuit of power made a mockery of his legacy. I am responsible for the deaths of countless innocents and only took notice of how unforgivable my crimes are when I was stripped of my pride. My path through darkness brought only one thing to be proud of: my son's ability to stop me.

Irony dictates my punishment is to instead save the world. Should my history drive away any chances of cooperation, then so be it. I intend on seeing this through, all the same.

Oh, excellent. My name is Ralsei, by the way.

They'll be ready in thirty minutes, they're already in the oven.

You prepared cookie batter in less than three minutes?

I shouldn't be surprised, if you make a habit of this.

[a_sweet_little_peach]

I usually have some half-prepared in the coldbox, without any of the particulars added.

Cookies taste better if their batter is cooled prior to baking, anyway, and this way I can have things out and ready in a hurry.

(That's the happiest picture of a Baphomet Vergil's ever seen.)

I see. It's been some time since I properly indulged in the culinary arts; the technique required in several dishes is an appealing challenge to me.

Baking is no different. Perfection demands perfection and I do not easily allow minute details to slip by.

If you're interested in the challenge, a friend told me that cooking at high altitudes is different. Feel free to use my kitchen at Laourn!

I'm going to need to sort out how it's different, myself. Plus, you could meet my roommates.
