Nero tchs, lugging the mace onto his shoulder, stepping further into the dead plants as they crumble underneath his steps. His boots, at least, aren't completely fucked; he'd been spending his time walking around the pit barefoot when it became obvious they weren't getting out fast. Now they're in good shape for escape.
Though he'd had to chase a few rats off from chewing the leather.]
To be fair, he only tried to kill me once. [Telling Credo how wrong he was hadn't stopped him. And led to one of the worst moments of his life -- when Kyrie looked at him with horror, with fear, for the first time.
He'd just been wrong. But Credo realizing he was wrong hadn't saved him.] But I know other people who tried it. Taking over the world. Always makes them look fuckin' stupid.
