Mysti is the True Heir, and Inki is her loyal girlfriend and Sworn.

They know this. They both know this. Together, they are the most important duo in the universe- it is together they will defeat the Darkness once and for all, and reunite the kingdoms together as one!

And of course, they were allowed to do whatever as destiny came to them- because any hardship that comes their way is a hardship that Mysti would be able to destroy, thanks to her unbreakable bond with Inki and status as the True Heir.

And well, right now?

There wasn't anything in their way.

Alone together in a dark alleyway, Mysti smiles at Inki.

"...Mysti..." Inki says, taking her hands in her own. Mysti's still Transformed, and not quite ready to detransform just yet- it's a bit of hassle, after all.

Mysti smiles. "Inki..."

Inki rubs against Mysti's palms with her fingers. She takes a deep breath in, looking at Mysti's face.

Why go through the trouble of planning it, if her own kisses are always better than anyone else's, only bested by Mysti's own? Why think it over?

Inki dives in. Her lips press against Mysti's, she lets go of Mysti's hands and wraps her arms around Mysti's body instead. Mysti wraps an arm around her neck, going below her soft black hair to do so, and wraps another arm around her chest, pressing into her back as Mysti squeezes her closer.

Inki loves her.

Of course Inki loves her.

Them meeting was destiny. It's destiny to be kissing her like this, to love her and to be there, loyal follower of the True Heir herself.

It's after defeating another Darkspawn.

Inki presses herself against Mysti the moment they have a moment- she presses her lips against Mysti's, her hands hold onto Mysti's, her nails digging into bare flesh.

She's perfect. Inki thinks. Of course she is- she's the True Heir. All sorts of destiny say that she'll be the one who'll save the world, who'll take what's broken and rebuild it to be better.

Mysti wiggles free of her grasp and wraps her arms around Inki. It's... nice. Perfect, just like Mysti herself is.

"Mysti..." Inki says. They're laying in the former's bedroom- she's untransformed, in bed together with Inki. "...You're perfect."

Mysti nods. "Yeah..." She looks off in the distance. "...When... when they talk about me..." She says. "After I've done it- after I saved the world... and rebuilt it.." She rolls over and strokes Inki's cheek with her hand. "...I'll tell them not to leave you out- not that they need a reminder!" She squeezes Inki's cheek and smiles. "Other people are just so... pathetic, sometimes. Incompetent." She sighs. "Imagine if I didn't get magic powers and had to leave everything up to them! We'd... we'd be doomed, wouldn't we?"

"Probably." Inki sweats. "But... we're here! And we'll save the world. Us and nobody else..."

Mysti gives Inki a kiss on the cheek. "Us and nobody else..." She smiles.

Inki follows close behind Mysti, a spirit barely distinguishable from the darkness around her, if not for the faint glow of light.

Trailing behind them is every failure time they were sabotaged by others who envied their cause. Every time the light fell out of Mysti's eyes for a moment- just a single moment.

Mysti herself does not look well is dressed differently. Her eyes are covered in dark circles from not sleeping, her dress is swapped out for a blue one with spots on it, and her body shakes with each and every movement.

She walks. Inki follows. That is how it is for the True Heir and her Sworn.

She stops.

Inki looks over the scene. Her own lifeless body, laying there. Mysti's failure to protect her. The result of sabotage.

Mysti falls to her knees. "Inki..." A tear falls from her eyes.

Inki bends down near her- touches her shoulder with a ghostly hand. "Mysti."

Mysti turns to look at her and smiles a broken smile. She doesn't have anything left, anymore.

Inki leaves a soft kiss on Mysti's cheek.

Mysti moves to stand back up, her legs shaking, and spins around, laughing. Every bit of laughter sounds as if it's being forced out- dry and without a single bit of happiness inside lively and cheerful.

They'll get past this- Mysti will master the powers of the Darkness, and she'll defeat it with it's own power, and with that she'll regain her powers of Light and wield both, protecting the future kingdom from any evil to come.

Inki spins with her, laughing the same way. They're doomed together, after all!

Mysti turns back and walks back to the start, and Inki follows. They've got to revisit these mistakes incidents, after all, because then they can find out who's responsible for them and stop them!

After all... Mysti's the True Heir. There's no such thing as mistakes for her.
