The slow and steady steps of a man could easily be heard behind Octavia as she walked. Since the last attack she'd been terribly afraid to venture outside, but... No one could stay locked away forever, and if she hid now, what good would she really be able to do? Wasn't being a guardian over the shard about more than locking it - and herself - away forever? However, as she stopped - the church not far in front of her now - she heard the heavy metal footsteps stop as well. "Why are you following me?" Honestly, her voice sounded far more assured than she really felt. "Because you hold the shard, my brethren have let me know before I arrived." The man's voice was smooth and easy, he was likely a skilled manipulator. "And your Hume side wishes to follow their desires into oblivion." "From destruction comes life." "Life does not come of destruction." "They are like light and dark. You can not have life without death. I - for one - have always embraced the dark." Finally, Octavia turned to face the man, and with her turn, he waved his arm off to one side to push back his cloak and reveal the jet black plate armor with raised symbol over his chest. Her eyes narrowed, she knew she'd seen that symbol somewhere before, somehow, but... "If you are aiming to bring the destruction of the world, would you at least let us know your name? It is a Hume thing to do." The man's smile bordered on a sneer as a hand fell to his Dark Sword, readying for the fight that was sure to ensue. "Jead." |
