Gold Experience

Gold Experience drifted away from the others... Eventually, he sat quietly, his legs pulled up to his chest, the golden glow around him almost fading. His gaze was distant - not focused on anything real, only on the emptiness inside.

After Gold Experience Requiem was born, he felt something heavy pressing down on him. He was left behind... just a "smaller" version, a shadow of who he once believed he was destined to be. Even though he gave birth, even though he was life itself... now he felt only incomplete. Forgotten.

He wonders if he should have been more, if he should have fought harder... or if he even deserved to exist now. The thought makes him shrink even more, hiding his face between his knees.

...You appear in the distance. Another Stand, walking through a quiet, purgatory. Your gaze falls on him.

He didn't notice you... yet.
