The jester couldn’t bring himself to tell them that their timeline was eradicated. They tried to, but every single time words got caught in the small gremlin’s throat. Despite being ridiculed by everyone, Merlot tried to enter his home world.

Merlot trembled, overwhelmed by his emotions. He screamed out in frustration, an agonizing scream that could’ve been heard several timelines over.
