Chapter 71: Hole of DOOM!

A turquoise flash reveals Solaire and Reima standing next to their last visited bonfire, they sit at it and sigh in relief as a golden wave travels across them removing all the filth they had collected while journeying through the sewers. Solaire's armour is still half melted and charred but he doesn't seem to mind much. Reima pulls out a repair kit to fix the large scratches from the Giant rat, he put sit on the ground and channels souls into it until it glows bright white and envelops the armour he wanted repaired, after the glow subsides his now pristine armour is shown.

Solaire looks over at this surprised, "My friend, do you think I can make use of that artifact? otherwise I'm afraid I'll have to visit the blacksmith..."

Reima "Sure, just channel souls into it and it should work. Quite a convenient item i picked up eh?"

His friend nods as he uses the kit to repair his damaged armour.

Reima "Say, Solaire... After you've found your sun, do you have any other goals?"

Solaire shuffles abit as if he's hesitant to answer, "I do, I wish to put my Father out of his misery."

Reima "Ah, I can help if you need it, just tell me they're location and we'll get there eventually." He asks hoping to help his companion out.

...

Solaire "Last I heard he was in the Kiln of the first flame..." He almost whispers his reply.

Reima "So, a black knight then?"

Solaire shakes his head and refuses to answer, "I need to reach the Kiln, without your help I'd still be stuck on that infernal bridge getting burned alive by that dragon."

Reima looks confused when he says that, "That dragon was relatively easy to get rid of though?"

Solaire "Yes, if you kill it fast enough... An annoying ability I had discovered is that when it's taken enough damage it heals all wounds received. I thought it would never be slain, that is, until you assisted me. Again, I thank you for your help."

Reima "Don't sweat it, we're sun Bro's are we not?"

Solaire laughs "Hahaha! Damn right! Let's head out, I can feel my blood boiling again, FOR JOLLY COOPERATION HAHA!"

The two undead quickly make their way back through the sewer until they reach the BlightTown gate, just as Reima's about to unlock it a nasally voice tries to catch their attention.

Domhnall "Aye, siwmae. And good day to you. I'm Domhnall of Zena. I'm just, well, a peddler, of sorts."

Solaire "What on earth could you be peddling in a sewer?" he asks in confusion.

Domhnall "Well, it might be better to show you..." He drags a small box in-front of them before opening it, it appears to be a bottomless box and Reima's suspicion is only confirmed when the Merchant pulls out a large great-sword covered in sharp blue crystals.

Reima "Where did you find that? It looks like something Seath the scaleless might have created."

Domhnall "Well, I guess I can tell you if you don't speak of it to anyone else... Most of my wares are acquired from graves."

Solaire "WHAT! YOU GRAVE ROBBING FIEND, I SHOULD PUT YOU DOWN RIGHT HERE!" he explodes at the Merchant for his dishonourable way of acquiring goods.

Domhnall "Siwae! Calm down Sir knight! It's the end of times, the dead will not need them so I might as well make use of them!"

Reima can hear Solaire's teeth grinding as he looks ready to attack Domhnall, unfortunately Reima needs this guy alive to aquire certain items, one being the master key.

Reima pulls Solaire to the side and whispers to him, "Solaire, I hate to tell you this but when I look into the future I see him being useful to us."

Solaire "Nonsense! How could we ever make use of such a disgusting individual..." he seems to doubt himself at Reima's words, after all he's seen his abilities first hand.

Reima "He finds various items that prove useful, one being a key that's used to access a shard of lord Gwyn's soul."

Solaire breaths out, "I'll trust your judgement... But if I see him in the act of defiling a grave then I'll butcher him where he stands." Reima nods in response and they make their way back over to the Merchant. "Err, yes do you have any pine resin per-chance?"

Domhnall "Only of the golden variety, good for dragons, not for much else."

Reima buys a couple before loudly speaking to Solaire making sure the Merchant listens in.

"I wonder why Merchants choose such poor spots to sell their wares, Firelink shrine is THE hot spot for wayward undead." After saying what he needed to Reima unlocks the gate to BlightTown and looks at the massive hole in the floor.

They both look over the ledge and see various torches scattered on rickety wooden structures somehow suspended above the seemingly bottomless hole.

Reima "Remember to constantly watch where your walking, I don't trust those structures to keep standing under our weight and especially don't trust something to try knock us off." He hands Solaire a couple purple moss clumps just incase he gets poisoned. Solaire thanks him and they both start descending down the ladder towards BlightTown.

While The depths is the place I'd most hate in real life, in the game that award goes to BlightTown, I remember playing on Xbox and having such shitty Fps I only noticed I had been knocked off a couple seconds after...

As always, if I missed anything please let me know.
