Day 23: Looking Ahead

Another piece for the Khadion NPC mod for BGII, since I know I need to do an extra monologue to day and feel much more like writing a dialogue. This is a compromise between the two--a monologue I can cut up into dialogue.

This monologue occurs right after Khadion has made a very important choice... and he's not entirely sure what the future holds, or what he wants to do with himself.

It begins with him saying he's glad he made the decision he did, and he's thankful that it's all over. It wasn't the most fun of circumstances to be in.

He goes on to say that while that's all well and good, he doesn't know what to do next. He cut off his ties with his father, and with Merric. He can't go back.

He says he's never been unsure of his path before; in the past he's always had a very set goal, and he did whatever he could do reach it. He's realising that now he's not so sure he's able to be the man he wanted to be when he was younger any more.

Despite all the hardship the main character (who we'll call, uh, Josh) has been through, at least he has a clear idea of where he's going--or at least, it seems like he does. Khadion's given up even trying to maintain the fiction that he knows what he's doing.

Josh has this grand future ahead of him, but Khadion--well, he just hopes Josh doesn't mind if he tags along.
