After the battle, the jester known as Joka took advantage of the situation, draining some of the Hunter's lifeforce to create a Rotten Veiling, the undeath would then take off his mask, floating a foot off the ground as he would put both hands on his cheeks "Oh... To be beautiful again..." He mumbled, his face now the one of an elf, a young man with extremely pallid skin and purple, intense eyes "Well... With the show closing it's curtains... It's time to bid adieu..." He chuckled, starting to float away from the Hunter's unconscious body... But he would pause for a moment, hearing something throught the now blighted woods of that silver forest, hissing and hungry growls... The glinting red eyes of starving undeath... This would be the end of the man... To be devoured by the creatures that dwelled on the same lands the jester helped cursing... "Hmm..." He would hum, remembering, remembering how he already left someone to die... How what was a simple entertainment... A simple show... Became a genocide, the screams of the Kelpie as her head was squashed by one of his closest allies, how he could have stopped him in time... The terrible screams and cries of those close to her... The screams... The hatred... The pain... It was all his
"IT'S ALL YOUR FAULT..." A disgusting and distorted, yet soft and melancholic voice talked in Joka's mind as he held into his forehead, gritting his teeth "LEAVE HIM TO DIE... LIKE THAT MAN IN THE SEPULCHRE, NOW FORCED TO ''LIVE '' THROUGHT YOUR SAME TERRIBLE CURSE... LIKE THAT BLUE WOMAN... YOU REMEMBER... RIGHT? YOU DIDN'T DO ANYTHING TO STOP IT... YOU ONLY WANTED TO CONTINUE YOUR LITTLE SHOW..." The voice mocked "WHAT A PATHETIC MANCHILD YOU ARE... OH! OR LIKE YOUR MOM... OR LIKE SMILEBONE..." At their mention, Joka would scream, holding into his own head, not able to cry, not able to feel real pain, he was truly as cursed as this forest.
The jester would then turn towards the man he helped bring down, and another glanze to the creatures preying on him, ready to devour his skin... He sighed "Hmm... I would feel bad if you died here..." He mumbled, holding into the Hunter with his quite limited, fragile strenght, and starting to drag him away, into somewhere safe.
