===The Swordsman's Arrival=== | |||
====The Dreaming Heart==== | |||
Sometime after the First Collapse, the worlds of the Solar system partway drawn into Aincrad from various "[[Darkness Zone]]s" left behind, the a-life that would come to be known as the Black Swordsman was deposited at the foot of the Watching Tower. Confused and disoriented, Kirito demanded answers from anything that would speak to him, and received nothing. After many long and fruitless months of attempting escape, Kirito gave up all hope and resigned himself to his fate. It was then the Darkness spoke to him, promising rich rewards in exchange for lifelong servitude. The a-life agreed, and was rechristened the Black Swordsman, herald of the Darkness's coming and leader of its armies. | |||
As time passed differently in Aincrad, or perhaps the Darkness had bent the passage of time around the a-life specifically, no sooner had the Swordsman agreed than it was revealed the Black Fleet had been mustering for its [[Forum:Second Collapse (Renovated)|second all-out assault]] upon a weakened [[Traveler]] and the small alliance of humans it had rallied. Kirito was sent out from Aincrad into the material realm, reawakening long dormant lieutenants of Darkness and cutting off avenues of escape; at some point, he would be reunited with his Angel, Asuna, who had been waiting patiently for his return. | |||
====Birth of the Shadowkeepers==== | |||
{{Quote|You were right. Those people... they never understood us... what we've suffered. They abandoned us in favor of those monsters they call heroes, but you don't have to worry anymore. Everything's going to be okay.|Asuna to Kirito, moments after their reunion.}} | |||
