Emerald/WiseTale

## Backstory

Emerald is the third ~~forgotten~~ human who fell down the Underground after Chara. As Emerald and the others got to Mt. Ebbot and were standing right beside a massive hole leading into darkness. Emerald sees Amber fall down while Garnet tried to catch, but he is unsuccessful. Garnet announced he will jump down as well as Emerald tries to convince him otherwise however, Garnet jumps down into the darkness. Emerald starts panicking worrying for Amber's and Garnet's safety as the rest of Krotos's siblings discuss what they should do. Emerald without any warnings jumps down as well as the others noticed and were too late to stop her as she falls down to the Underground.

Emerald safely lands on a golden flowerbed and then stands up calling for Garnet and Amber. However, there is no response. Emerald then starts walking with her heavy rucksack going through a door with a giant crest. Emerald is not as fit as Amber, Garnet or Krotos and is struggling to walk at times as she journeys through the Ruins. Emerald figures out the puzzles all with some difficulty, but she carries on regardless. Emerald has to take many breaks otherwise she would collapse in exhaustion however, she eventually made it to a house entering without anyone's consent.

Emerald sits near a wall breathing heavily as a person stood in front of her. Emerald is surprised seeing a person with goat-like features, but the person offers a hand to Emerald introducing herself as Toriel. Emerald accepts Toriel's hand lifting her up and then Toriel takes Emerald to the children's room. Emerald enters the children's room apricating Toriel's kindness and puts her rucksack down then lies on the bed resting as Toriel closes the door leaving her in peace. For days Emerald and Toriel were helping each other out taking care of the house and cooking different recipes as they get along quite well. Emerald however, needed to leave to find Garnet and Amber, but before she left Toriel knew she could not keep her forever so she warns Emerald about Asgore and hug each other before they went their separate ways.

Emerald travels around the Underground encountering many monsters and spares each one of them showing them acts of kindness. It took Emerald a week to make it to Asgore's throne room as she had to sleep in the Snowdin inn and the MTT resort. Before Emerald got to the throne room she is amazed by the different landscapes inside Mt. Ebbot and how life thrives in the Underground. Emerald mainly sleeps in her tent throughout the week and wonders where Garnet and Amber went and hopefully the King might have answers. Emerald appears in the throne room as the Mountain King greets her as they have a cup of tea.

Emerald asks Asgore on where as she describes it 'an impatient girl obsessed with boxing and a boy who strives for justice.' Asgore reluctantly leads Emerald to the barrier showing her their souls. Asgore reveals the truth that he killed them and apologises as Emerald collapses to the ground crying becoming irresolute on what to do. Asgore hugs Emerald and asks her for his forgiveness as he impales her with a trident, Emerald looks at Asgore with shock, but then realises his sorrow almost tearing up himself. In Emerald's final moments she told Asgore that she forgives him although she did not fully understand she hopes that one day that someone can save Asgore. Emerald smiles and takes her last breath as tears fell down Asgore's cheeks asking himself what has he done.
