Ahh, if only I'd never met him! [k] @Grimy Witch If I'd never gotten involved with a human, then I never would have been stuck with a brat like you! [k] @ [lr]She apologized the moment the words left her mouth. [k] @Grimy Witch ...I'm sorry, Beryl. I don't know why I said that.[sr]You're my precious son. My darling boy. [k] @Young Beryl It's okay, Gran. I know you don't mean it. [k] @Young Beryl Now don't cry. You can't see the stars in your eyes when you cry. They're your best feature. Prettier than anyone else's. [k] @Grimy Witch Beryl...! Oh, thank you, Beryl! [k] @Grimy Witch You're the only one I can count on...[sr]The only thing I have worth living for... [k] @ [lr]Beryl Gut lived with his mother, away from human society, where she taught him all manner of curses and rituals. [k] @ It's unclear how much influence these spells, most of which used life as their chief ingredient, had on Beryl's personality. [k] @ He learned things like how to track prey, and how to make a witch's pot that could cross two living things together. [k] @ He learned how to conceal himself. How to make deadly poison. How to turn karma into tumors. How to amplify pain. How to borrow against misfortune. [k] @ He especially loved spells suited to assassination and torture, and his mother happily trained him. [k] @Beryl So there's no more spells you have left to teach me?[sr]I see. That's too bad, Mum.

He sold his services as a mage who dealt exclusively in killing, and for a time, life was good. [k] @ But eventually, he had killed so many people, he could no longer live comfortably, even in the underworld. [k] @ Then, just as he was looking for a new place to call home, he was recruited to Chaldea by its director, Marisbury Animusphere...

So how does that thing figure into your mission, Doctor!? [k] @ [lr]This creature's ugliness wasn't a matter of its appearance, but rather its way of life. [k] @ It was incomplete, like an eternally premature infant. Beryl laughed and said it reminded him of a balut egg. [k] @ And on top of that... [k] @Beryl Hey, Doctor. What's that girl's name? [k] @Beryl I've seen a ton of people over the years, and that girl right there? She's something special. [k] @Beryl She might have a long way to go now, but one day, she's gonna be prettier than anyone else. [k] @ [lr]It seems Beryl may have inherited his mother's green thumb, as he had a gift for growing flowers. [k] @ He knew that this one might be a miserable sight now, but in ten years, she would bloom into something beautiful. [k] @ And so, he decided to watch over the flower's growth.

[k] @Beryl I could tell they were well-made, of course, but that's all. [k] @Beryl For the longest time, I figured I just wasn't the kind of guy who could appreciate beautiful things.

[k] @Beryl I'm not gonna let them give you a Sirius Light. That was my condition for becoming their cleanup guy. [k] @Beryl Remember this, Mash.
