So, follow me on this one: Noah summoning Sophist as a last resort.

Inspired by "Monster" from Epic the Musical.

Just imagine Noah visiting Brent and his kingdom only to find it under siege. He immediately rushes straight for the castle to check on his friend.

He sees Brent fighting off intruders left and right, cutting them down as fast as he can manage, but he's still incredibly outnumbered. And Noah's just standing there in shock, unable to move.

Only when Brent finally goes down does he snap out of it and try to defend his friend, but he's quickly forced back with no means to defend himself. He's not a fighter like Brent, so he's got nothing.

Well, not nothing. He has one thing.

A mask he swore he'd never don. A mask he only knows as something powerful that comes with a cost. But right now, he's willing to pay any price to save his friend.

And it's when he presses it to his face that all hell truly breaks loose...and then the fun begins.

A bit of a follow up from @sopping-wet-cat-wizard’s twophist idea here, but this time based on “Monster” from Frozen the Musical! It’s a song I’ve always loved to analyze but especially since I discovered Epic, as both songs are essentially inverses of each other but have the same concept of the character realizing they’re a monster, but dealing with it in very different ways. anyways. slowpiss time.

Noah had known that putting in the mask would come with dire, dire consequences. It was worth it, of course, because Brent was safe. What wasn’t worth it was what happened afterwards.

Sophist was a monster. One that cared for Brent, sure, but a monster nonetheless. Noah was forced to watch hands that were his own do deeds that weren’t his. He couldn’t bear to see all of the pain Sophist was causing. It had even gotten to the point where Brent was concerned. But Sophist hadn’t noticed. He had gone from protecting his friend and nation to causing chaos for the fun of it but hadn’t noticed this transition at all.

Noah knows that he has to take Sophist down. But how…? No, he can’t… there must be some other way…

Trying to be funny and stuck in a room

There isn't much more to say about it

Can one be funny when stuck in a room?

Being in, trying to get something out of it

Try making faces

Try telling jokes, making little sounds, uh

I was a kid who was stuck in his room

There isn't much more to say about it

When you're a kid and you're stuck in your room

You'll do any old shit to get out of it

Try making faces

Try telling jokes, making little sounds

… Well, well

Look who's inside again

Went out to look for a reason to hide again

Well, well

Buddy, you found it

Now, come out with your hands up

We've got you surrounded

Am I going crazy? Would I even know? Am I right back where I started fourteen years ago? Wanna guess the ending? If it ever does I swear to God that all I've ever wanted was A little bit of everything, all of the time A bit of everything, all of the time Apathy's a tragedy, and boredom is a crime I'm finished playing, and I'm staying inside If I wake up in a house that's full of smoke I'll panic, so call me up and tell me a joke When I'm fully irrelevant and totally broken, damn it Call me up and tell me a joke Oh, shit, you're really joking at a time like this? Well, well, look who's inside again Went out to look for a reason to hide again Well, well, buddy, you found it Now come out with your hands up We've got you surrounded
