If only Brendan was right.
Brendan said he drained ALL the Calamity out of me, but a tiny part was left in my soul. And because of my shadow, my sheut, the Calamity got rebooted. I turned back into my demon self. Isfet was taking control over me again. I didn't know what to do.
This is your path. This is what you were made for. Don't complain. You are the Hated One, the serpent. I told myself. "Talking to yourself? I understand." Said a familiar voice.
"Gaster?" I asked.
"Yes, me." Gaster confirmed.
"I thought you were in Brendan's body." I said.
"Well, he has such a happy life, I gave up on him as a host. He doesn't need me. You however, are the perfect host for me." He replied.
"What do you mean?" I asked.
"Brendan was only a body. But we can combine our souls into one. Drake, please, absorb my soul. I can help." Gaster answered.
"Fine," I said. "I could use some help."
And I grabbed onto his soul, and brought it into mine.
Ah, much better. Gaster said. Go north. You will find your path there.
