10th of the monsterbook - Knight Halberd - accidental voice | Backdated to 20th

[ The journal hits the ground and flops open amid low humming and the sounds of some sort of moderate sized bird taking a short flight.

The deep humming is a quiet tune of some sort. It could, paired with words, be cheerful enough, the notes being hit probably down an octave from what they should be, but... Currently, it sounds ridiculously depressing. After a moment, the bird shifts and then there's a higher, sweeter humming that most definitely doesn't sound depressed.

Duke stops humming after a while, but Niffel keeps humming at him, and there's the faint sound of cloth against stone under it. ]

.... Still do not understand.. [ There's some traces of that sadness, but like his voice usually does, it doesn't sound too thick. It sounds less like Duke's talking to himself, and more like he's talking to someone. There's no reply, aside from the continued sweet humming of his pokemon, so.. who? ]

Why? It does not make sense. Is fear that much of a motivator? Are they all so distrusting? You gave your word, I vouched....

had your past actions not spoken enough....?

....Makes no sense...

... Uncertain if applies... [ Does he sound muffled? He's shifted to more or less bury his face in Niffel. ]

... Do not wish to talk with humans.

[noblefive]

I think your partner has the right of it. You can't bury yourself forever.

[radiantwingedone]

... Worked well enough before.

Perhaps should leave the castle...

[noblefive]

Leaving the castle only postpones the issue. What if something happens and you need someone, only you don't know who to ask because you don't know anyone?

.... [ He doesn't want to need any help, though.

This is the sound of Duke making a ball and just sitting there. ]
