A tribute to the City of Tears

(script under cut)

Unlike what people thought,

the Dreamers were aware of the world even in the Dream.

So Lurien continued to watch.

For that was his duty.

Perhaps,

the title of ‘Watcher’

suits him now

more than it ever did when he was awake.

The Watcher's gaze wanders the city like a ghost.

The endless sound of dripping rain, light glinting off the wet streets.

It didn't always rain in the city.

In the years

since the city was built,

the rain was a relatively new development.

But now even Lurien

finds it easier

to imagine the view outside the windows without rain

than to remember the city of before.

Every day the city the Watcher knows falls into ruin.

And Lurien's worn out memories

fade bit by bit

leaving only the vague impression

that 'it wasn't always like this.'

A song echoing amidst the patter of rain.

Traces of a dream different from that of the Dreamers.

Or perhaps a requiem from the city to itself.

In either case

the song is not for Lurien.

Lurien loved the Kingdom’s Capital,

the heart of Hallownest.

He did not live the age

where songs for a ruin were sung on the streets.

The streets echo with the footsteps of busy bugs.

Peaceful silence hangs in the Spire

and Lurien sits at his telescope.

Perhaps

if you cover your eyes

you could pretend

that Lurien’s beloved city

hasn't changed at all.

10.

But the Watcher never turns away.

11.

The wanderers call this place

the City of tears.

They will never realize

just how apt the name is.

Wolf: Y'know, Ganon, I’ve never really questioned it before but … what’s with the whole pig motif?

Ganondorf: What? I like pigs. Pigs are cute.

Bowser: Uuuuuhhh …

Ridley: Don’t you mean “tough” or “scary”?

Ganondorf: No, they’re cute. I can’t like cute things?

Wolf: Well it’s just … not very manly.

Ganondorf: Hmph, “manly”. Let me tell you something about “MANLY”.

Ganondorf: People who constantly obsess about appearing “manly” have the most fragile egos out of anybody. They spend all their time obsessing over how every little thing in their life will effect their image. They live with their guard constantly up out of fear that the tiniest little emasculating thing will destroy how people think of them. People who waste their time caring about “manly” are the most fragile little babies of them all.

Ganondorf: Now, a REAL manly man just likes what he likes and doesn’t give two shits about what people think about him. The real secret to being manly is to say “I am what I am and I like what I like, and if you don’t like it you can go cry to your pathetic peers because I don’t give a FUCK.”

Villains: …

Wolf: I … actually like it when Isabelle packs me a lunchbox with little notes inside.

Bowser: … I let Peach give me a makeover whenever I kidnap her.

K.Rool: I actually just really like banana smoothies.

Eggman & Wily: (simultaneously) I built myself a robot girlfriend. Whoa, you too?

Ridley: I’m a BTS stan.

Ganondorf: See? Don’t you feel better now getting to be your true self out in the open.

Ganondorf: (turning to Ridley) … K-Pop? Really?

Ridley: Look, I thought they were cute girls at first and then it turned out the music was pretty goo- GET OFF MY BACK!!
