God, Azrael was a tough nut to crack and he seemed as if everything what ever was wrong with anyone was, for some reason, Ignatius fault - at least he applied it to him, sort of, and then felt entitled to be mad about it. So what if some people cared? They could be glad someone like him even tried to save them, and yet, if he ever said that to Azrael, he’d probably have to answer for some sort of crime that he ought to have committed, even when Ignatius knew that to not be the case. “I don’t pla…

“Aw, come on! Please!” The incessant begging had to work for someone at some point, Ignatius wanted it to at the very least - he could try all the things in the world, of course, but that only meant that as long as he made an attempt, perhaps he’d be heard. Frankly, there weren’t many people he begged to do anything for him - usually, it was the other way around and he liked it that way, and yet, he felt as if Azrael was deserving of seeing him like that, groveling at his feet all the same. “I d…

“Won’t you make an exception?”, he asked with a set of doe-like eyes, firmly planted onto his face. For all they knew, this could be everything they needed to make actual strides in their journey or it could be the worst idea since before demons roamed these lands to teach Ignatius how to wield weapons as Azrael did. “I get that, but we could squeeze a tiny bit of training in there before we go to bed, if we make it to someplace before nightfall. It would at least be something I’d enjoy, and you…

There were none left it seemed - the fact itself was quite saddening. Had they been eaten or abducted? Ignatius wished that he were able to tell just what heinous crime it was that he punished these creatures for, and yet, there was no way to actually hell what happened. Perhaps he was simply going to have to come to his own set of conclusions once the time was right - it was the only thing he could come up with either way. Besides, there was nothing he could do for those forlorn souls and as hi…

That was a task done - Ignatius had hoped to fell the second troll as well, but it didn’t seem like they’d get to it after all, especially now that the figure had taken off toward the woods. That was a bummer. Regardless of how he felt about the situation, though, he decided that it was at least worth to see if they should pursue this thing - for the moment, that was. Fortunately, or perhaps even unfortunately for him, Azrael seemed to have different ideas and already abandoned the station he’d …

Azrael was akin to yelling, it seemed, not to actually taking things to heart in the heat of the moment - the troll was already done for either way, complete with the new cuts and all, and Ignatius figured this was the best it would be in the long shot. Regardless of what it truly would wind up being, he couldn’t let his guard down just yet - he eased the spell out, knowing that it had made him break out in cold sweat, but they were far from done. His body had to take a bit more than that if it …

“If they ever are.” It was the one thing they kept talking about all the time. Not only were the kids hard to deal with on occasion, they proved to be quite feisty as well - the only thing that changed all of that, at the very least a little bit, was, when they actually had a talent for something. It was almost instantly recognized and they could just focus on training them for one specific thing, not five different ones. Perhaps, that, too, was a problem. “It’s alright, I’m here for a reason, a…

He could be useful, that much he knew - but that aside, what else could he do? Ignatius was wondering about that by the time it just so happened to be almost his turn to get mauled - he looked at the knife that flew past him, narrowly avoiding him, and got one of those goblins. Hook, line and sinker, as his teacher would say - only to waffle about having been a fishers son afterward. If that was all it needed, not only was he envious of Azrael, he was downright jealous; he looked confident while…

Ignatius wanted to be able to trust Azrael to the fullest, regardless of whatever would happen between the two of them in the next few hours. In fact, he ought to trust this guy so much more than just about anyone he‘d ever met at the monastery, he it because he was trying to be understanding in most ways or simply because he tried to open his eyes. And yet, his faith was holding him back, all the while his mind was so terribly interested in this man that it almost hurt - they watched their adve…

Azraels description made it sound more disgusting than it ought to be, but Ignatius figured that perhaps, he wasn’t even wrong. There had to be some truth to his words, no? And even better, it did make him wonder if he was simply losing it all - being a meal for these creatures definitely wouldn’t happen, Ignatius knew as much. That was the last thing he wanted, and besides that, he also wanted nothing more than to actually figure out what on gods green earth was up with any of that. Who would b…

Ignatius was willing to do whatever Azrael asked of him if that meant he’d get to see some of the creatures up close and perhaps, he’d even get to kill one or two of them. Wouldn’t that be nice? He’d finally have a tale of his own to tell and better yet, he’d be having fun with it, too! “I’m still supposed to be cautious, then.”, he summarized. That wasn’t a hard task, the only thing he needed to keep in mind was that he needn’t injure Azrael as well. “Worst case they rip my head off?” Perhaps, …

Endangering their only mode of transportation wasn't a good idea, regardless of their intent. Besides, Njeri hardly deserved it, either. Sure, it ought to be dumb to some people to model their likes that much after the prefernces of an animal, but Ignatius nodded. He was simply happy that the two of them agreed and to have solid ground beneath his feet already meant something. At least he wasn't wandering through the back country with lots and lots of armor on his back, that would hurt him in th…

Ignatius had never heard of these creatures for as long as he was alive, not as a real world plague at least. All he knew of them were fables and the fact that they hardly ever were satiated with what they had, and that was how far his knowledge went. Was he satisfied with that? No. And it didn't seem like they were going to have a history lesson on beast anatomy either, not while he stood there and gauged his surroundings with a keen eye - Azrael went off as he was told, and Ignatius simply sni…

Azrael led and Ignatius just let himself be paraded around - it wasn't actually too easy to stay put and silent, too - he had fifty things he wanted to ask and seven-hundred of those things were questions that he'd have about the current situation, and then fifty more about some other things, like, why they were actually doing this, right here and now, and if Azrael believed he'd be rewarded for things if he kept up the good work. For one, the priest thought he'd make strides in his contract and…

As they now walked towards the village at a snails pace, Ignatius was left to wonder what was happening - he couldn't quite gauge the reality of everything just yet, but as he tried to, he wondered if this would get any worse. "So, it used to be aflame." And they were perhaps a day too late to see it? That had to be some sort of sick joke. From here on, they only had today left to actually reach the next monastery, but they still had more than enough time to actually get there. Would they involv…

Ignatius didn't figure that any sort of jig was up, not even when he woke up and definitely not when he was barely functioning himself. Being awake had its detriments, all of which were easily explained away, time and time again, only to crop up in much larger margins after the fact. Was there something that he'd missed, or was he simply having a bit too much fun? Oh, Ignatius couldn't even tell, not even during his morning prayer - he ought to get it out of the way lest someone else started thi…

Cecil was happy to hear that, really, as he was sure that the night could have gone completely differently. Either way, it didn't turn out to be that way and the moment he heard that Logan was having a grand old time, he was happy, too. "If you say that, that makes me happy to hear.", the prince waffled about. Was he truly happy? Apparently so, but worse than that, he even enjoyed the food that he had gotten out of that interaction - Eddie didn't feel like eating, which was okay, but the next th…

As the sun set he eventually lost his ability to see his canvas - he could make a light if he wanted to and he’d know better than to ask Azrael, yet decided against it as he figured that there was nothing lost if he just slept through it and continued on tomorrow. As Azrael seemed to be done mending his clothes, and done being awake, Ignatius got up and put his things away again - for a moment, he considered cuddling with Njeri, but then came to the conclusion that the valiant steed was warrante…

He'd believed that some quick banter was in order, but he was shot down immediately, much like a falcon would be hit by a stray arrow at time. In a way, it saddened him, but it was both of their faults anyway. Alright then. Even as he was denied a story, he simply sighed and got back up - he dragged his socks over the forest floor to get back to the saddlebags and grab the piece of charcoal and the paper from earlier. He'd occupy himself, then, that would work either way. Why pester someone that…

Ignatius nibbled away on both meat and cheese that he'd taken - perhaps, he felt much like a little mouse in that moment and was just doing what he needed to do to not incite another discussion between him and Azrael. If he didn't eat, he'd be a liability, so he could at least afford to not eat and make everything work for him and in his favor. That was what he figured it would be anyhow; he just didn't know how he'd get it all to work for him. As Ignatius wondered about perhaps the most simple …
