Chapter Text
Nom knew this day would come, he had thought about it ever since he took the most idiotic,Stupid and most worthwhile deal.The deal with the creaking king because at the end of the day it allowed him to protect his family.His friends.
Katie,4c,Scott they all looked at him,watching as he had to shed his armour because he was to weak to wear it.Hardly tethered to this plane of the living but he was.because if anything he was stubborn.Darkness soon over took his vision as he had to watch as tears fell from their eyes.Tears he could no longer wipe away.
“Hey…I…lov-“Nom choked out before the strings that made him live were cut.
His hands were bleeding,why were they bleeding? What going on? Is this hell his punishment for the blood that has stained his hands since-god when was the last time he wasn’t a weapon.He felt burning in his eyes as tear fell hitting the ground from his curled up position.
All of a sudden whispers floated to his ears,he couldn’t make out what they were saying but he knew the meaning.After all these were the same whisper laced with poison that haunted him when he was alive.
“Enough” a firm voice spoke confidence-no control
As the whispers became silent”you have done well knight it is my honour that you are allowed to rest “
What the fuck-no no no this couldn’t be happening ,this has to be the wrong person.Nom looked up at a large figure covered in armour(like owain) his mind helpfully supplied with a weapon that seemed to shift every time he looked at.
The figure sighed “ I thought this might happen,it seem as though your soul isn’t ready yet”
“What do you mean my soul isn’t ready yet”Nom questioned.Does this mean I take retribution for my action he thought.
“No” The figure spoke,nom opened his mouth to argue but befit he could the figure well god continued”The deal you made and the subsequent corruption from the creaking king has felt a mark on your soul,due to this there are 2 action we can take”
“What-wait-what does this mean-what going to
Happen” nom asked, worry and panic following his every word.
“Now one of the ways to clear the corruption is for you to undergo healing from magic opposite to that of the corruption which can only be used by deities or “
“Or…” nom asked already thinking about how much he would hate having to do nothing until he was apparently healed.unable to do anything.yeah no.
“You go back in time to the day the mages arrive as at the same time that when the creaking rewoke by going back in time the magic cast would allow the corruption to weaken meaning by then finding a cure your soul would be cleansed” The knight god stated acceptance in his tone.
Nom could go back,he could fix everything no none would have to suffer through his mistakes.People could have a better life.He could fix things.But because he was nom impulsive nom what came out was.
“There was a cure?!!” He shouted before realising what he said and immediately shutting his mouth.
“Yes there a cure however it has been lost for quite a while and by going back it will not be the same “ The knight god answered,well at least they accepted and knew what his choice will be.
“Nominal kite do you accept going back to the day the creaking awoke knowing the consequences and the fact things will be different “
Nom knew his answer and the knight god seemed to as well because next thing he knew he was waking up in the well well well looking rundown and empty.
