Video; Orchestra 5

[Yugi appeared leaning over slightly. He was making sure whatever was behind him couldn't be soon in his cabin room.]

I have a question.

Have others been discovering powers that they had from that place?

[He sounded nervous as he asked that glancing off to the side. He didn't want to ask, but he knew that he had to.]

Because I just very recently discovered mine and well... It's fine just... Need perhaps a little help in figuring out how to better deal with it when I've never had abilities before.

[He soon sighed slightly as he moved to the side revealing... who knows they all looked like balls of something or another covering the bed and the floor as well. Some seemed rather long while others weren't even a shape of any kind. Some were odd colours too. No two ever seemed to be the same.]

If anyone can help, I would appreciate it.

[Even though Yugi felt like it was a rude question for him to ask. But also better to be safe than sorry.]

So if that is the case, what exactly did it mean back home? I assume it came with a job?

I am responsible for death. I also collect those who have died gentle deaths and guide them to the Underworld.

[ "Gentle" is a very subjective term. Not all of them are passing while they sleep. Some are still quite unpleasant. ]

Okay, I think I get it. It's not that you are death in that you are the cause, but you are the one who helps those go to where they need to be after it.

[Perfect sense actually now he thought about it.]

[ That's... not exactly it, but mortals often have a hard time understanding his role that it's close enough. ]

So that is why I didn't get a power from that place. Gaining a power of life is incompatible with my very nature.

Makes sense. Wouldn't want to accidentally bring someone back from the dead who is meant to be as such.

[Really that wouldn't be a good thing, right?]

But I guess on the train it's different, right?

[controlsthedie]

[ ... Zagreus is the exception. Zagreus is the exception. ]

I have no assignments here, and with how varied people's relation with death is, it is different. The train takes cares of death. Or the lack of it.

[sizedoesntmatter]

I am very much aware of how the train deals with death considering I've been one of the people who have died here.

[Was not at all fun. Wouldn't recommend.]

[controlsthedie]

[ Thanatos is silent. Was this before Thanatos arrived? Or after? He thought he would have sensed someone dying.... (Little did he know that he had been completely drained from a mission which made him sleep through the whole ordeal.) ]

Well, then I have nothing more to tell you.

[sizedoesntmatter]

I still learned something new though so it was a good conversation at least.

[As odd of a subject as it might have been there is always soemthing to learn from talking.]
