Journal Entry #1
[spoiler]I've been thinking of Mara a lot lately, it has been several years since we parted ways and I still can't stop thinking of my failure to protect her. I've been told by other Primes that I'm capable of summoning others from my universe to act as partners, or secondaries as they call it. Even yet I've been hesitant to try it, I've already caused her enough trouble and ripping her from her world seems selfish and short-sighted. Besides I'm not even sure how she would react to seeing me again, we didn't exactly leave on the most amicable of terms. I wonder if I could summon Damien Alabaster? No, that's probably a bad idea if he arrives at similar strength to what he left with, well I don't think I could beat him. Even still... that's something to keep in mind.
I also have a theory about the Omniverse in general. The nexus must serve as some kind of hub, some kind of connection to every possible universe. The verses are permanently connected to the Nexus, or the connection must be very strong. My universe must only have a weak connection with the Omniverse, but it is connected somehow. I refuse to believe in one-way trips. At any rate I theorize that Omnilium is my ticket home, Omnilium is basically wish-fulfillment made manifest. With enough of it one can theoretically do anything, even strengthen the bonds between worlds. At least that's what I hope is the case, I'm not sure what to do.
Final thought. The people of Darkshire amaze me many would yield in the face of such overwhelming adversity and yet they stubbornly entrench themselves and fight. Even still I don't think they could have gotten far without their commander. Despite his appearance and his questionable decision to station me on guard duty he seems to be some sort of tactical savant. I get the feeling that with the right Primes and a bit of luck the people of Darkshire could concievably push back against the darkness and reclaim the moors. At the end of the day I'm just here to gain enough power to return home, but they seem to have endeared themselves to me. I'll help as much as I can, but if I have to choose between a way home and stopping Darkshire from burning... well I think the choice is obvious.[/spoiler]
Journal Entry #2
[spoiler]Dante's Abyss, a sort of free for all death arena. Normally I wouldn't want anything to do with something like this, but in the Omniverse things are different. Death isn't permanent here, at least not for Primes. With death no longer being a permanent disability I have no qualms about participating in this bloody game of hunt or be hunted. Although I do fear running into one of the contestants, Crona, a young boy who I met just the other day. Despite seeming to be a nervous wreck he did seem to care genuinely about other people. I hope that if the time comes I'll be able to kill him. I know death is ephemeral, but I'll still feel terrible about attacking him.
I do wonder how Karl Jak was able to create this verse. It seems to have slightly different rules than the rest of the Omniverse. The amount of Omnilium required for creating this must have been immense. Why? What is Karl Jak's end game? Is this all just for the entertainment? I'm afraid that the answer is yes. I imagine that Mr. Jak could be an incredibly powerful player in the politics of the Omniverse if only he channeled his resources properly.
Perhaps he already is?[/spoiler]
Journal Entry #3
[spoiler]I seem to keep moving farther and farther away from my goal. First I was sidetracked with that damn Gilgamesh and then that bloodsport Dante’s Abyss. And now. Now I’m joined with these “Lawmen” as they call themselves. I can’t overlook their sinister nature, but I need influence and I need power and they are all too willing to provide it to me. So for now I’ll play their little game of lords and kings, I’ll keep playing their game until it no longer benefits me. After all I’m now here to make friends, I’m here to find a way back home.
As a side note I must be wary of Ganondorf. His tongue is silver and his mind is sharp, I’m not sure if I could even beat him in a fight. If we ever come to blows I must remember to not hold back. As much as he wouldn’t want to admit it I think Eighteen is a blind spot of his, perhaps I could exploit such a weakness?
But for now I have a fight to look forward to. I’ve waited for too long to return to Gilgamesh. Hopefully the arrogant bastard keeps his word and he’ll grant me a fight. Hell, I won’t give him the choice. I had to put up with that bastard Enel, I’m not going to put up with another arrogant “god”. The next egotistical bastard I find I’m going to obliterate, and that I promise. But I digress, I can’t underestimate the Golden King. He must certainly be powerful to hold such an influence. Perhaps I can find some information on his through this Dataverse Device?[/spoiler]
