"Woah woah rook, calm down!"

Ryan has his dagger pulled out and pressed to Mountain's throat. His left eye has turned back to its normal colour but it is full of an unyielding bloodlust. Mountain's arm is completely snapped in half and Ryan still has it pressed to the table with a grip that is starting to splinter Mountian's bones in his hand. Mountain is wincing in pain as he is pleading for his life but Ryan has the aura of murder surrounding him. Tio is trying to pull Ryan away from Mountain but can't even budge him an inch. Ryan begins to speak and his voice is followed by an overlaying whisper that seems to echo what he says. His voice seems to even be a snarl of a wild animal.

"If the Abyss shows itself, then we will destroy it (If the Abyss shows itself, then we will destroy it), even if we kill millions to do so (even if we kill millions to do so). For our undying hunger is that of a bloodthirsty wolf (For our undying thirst is that of a bloodthirsty wolf), and the wolf pack is forever searching for an end to the abyss (and the wolf pack is forever searching for an end to the abyss)."

Everyone in the room is standing up, weapons draw and ready to defend their good friend Mountain, but he waves them down with his free hand. He looks back into the eyes of Ryan but with conviction instead of terror.

"You're an Abyss Watcher huh, I should watch who I pick fights with now if you are alive again."

"Wait, what do you mean Mountain!"

Tio, who is completely astounded that Mountain is calm with a snapped right arm and a knife at his throat, is fumbling to find a way to help him out but Mountain gives her a reassuring smile.

"Don't worry T, just watch. Transformation: Clear"

Mountain lets out a few deep breaths and Ryan stumbles backwards and lands on his back. He is sweating profusely and he is practically wheezing. Ryan barely manages to pull himself together and be able to sit up. After a few rapid blinks, Ryan has realized what has happened and needs to leave immediately. He looks around and sees everyone in the room is staring at him with expressions ranging from terror to interest. He gets up to leave and looks at his former opponent, Mountain, and remembers that he snapped his arm in half and couldn't leave him like this. Scrambling for a miracle to heal him on the spot, Ryan decides to use a miracle he had personally made a while ago and cast "Second Chance Given By One". A bright white light swarms the entire room, followed by a blast of wind and by the time anyone can open their eyes, Ryan has disappeared.

"Are you ok Mountain!"

Tio, who was looking at the empty space where Ryan had been, turned around to make sure her old friend was okay but was surprised at what she saw. Mountain's arm was completely healed and beyond that, the shirt he had torn seemed to be completely sewn back together and there were three glasses back on the bar. Tio looks down to where the shattered glass once was but it is no longer there. Mountain uproars in a loud laugh and shakes his head.

"If someone told me that we had an Abyss Watcher come back to life then I would've never used another Abyss type transformation for as long as I breathed. They really hate it when people even mention the word let alone use it as a body modification."

"What do you mean Mountain! What is an Abyss Watcher?"

"Well T, in the land of Farron, where I hail from, there is a legend about an army under the Old Wolf of Farron that sought out to cleanse the Abyss and did anything to do so. A special task force named the Abyss Watchers were formed and it is said that a Corruption entered the hearts of the warriors and they began to murder each other. It is said that only one was left standing and no one knows what happened to him and it is also said that he has all of the power of his comrades inside of him and is waiting for the Abyss to show itself again to come back once more. It seems that this man named Frew is that last warrior and that would mean the Abyss is making moves again."

"But I thought it was sealed! Does that mean the seal is broken!"

"Most likely, for I fear the worst for Anor Londo if so, but if he is here then maybe we can destroy it once and for all."

*Back in Ryan's room*

Ryan stood with his back against the door so no one could enter. He needs time to really dig deep into his memory to realize what is going on. He remembers reading the lore about the Abyss Watchers and how they became to be. It is said they partook in wolf's blood and some theorize it is that wearing the armour will make you connected to them and the Soul of Artorias himself.

With the armour of the Abyss Watcher's being what was given to him, Ryan can't help but feel this is a sign of what is planned for him, to become an actual Abyss Watcher and banish the Abyss like the former ones were unable to do and he actually embraces it. He always thought the fighting style of the Abyss Watchers was badass and would love to become one but there is a slight problem. He has the curse inside of him that is actually the Abyss so should he kill himself? No, he can do something that can bring honour back to the Abyss Watchers name. Do the same to the Abyss as what it did to the originals Abyss Watcher's, use the Abyss to destroy the Abyss.

'If I can harness this power and use it to destroy the Abyss once and for all.... Then the original Abyss Watchers can rest in peace.'

At this point Ryan doesn't even care if this is game or reality, what he does care about is getting stronger and finding his friends if they are here, for if he is wanting to kill something stronger than a God, then he will just have to get multiple gods to fight it. What Ryan thought was the end of his epic journey with his friends, was actually the beginning of many new ones.
