Ignatius was quick on his feet an Azrael waited for him to wash up and finish his prayers. All the while he looked out the window, scanning all the people that walked along the dirt roads. The priests in particular he looked at and he felt a shiver run down his spine which he attributed to stupid memories from his childhood rather than an actual threat. He was so focused he only looked up when Ignatius asked him something, already standing by the door. "Given that a lot of money all at once won'…

Azrael hated the fact that he almost started to believe that this man meant what he preached, but it was not of much concern to him. "Not every member of the church has good intentions...", he simply commented. He knew, he knew very well and he wasn't fool enough to just trust them, only because they wore white clothes and humble faces. That was all he wanted to add. They both had much to say, but they needed to rest and they had a long journey ahead, they would have plenty of time to discuss an…

"Well as far as I know there aren't any other towns close enough to reach in a days travel by foot, not in your condition anyway. There is no point in exhausting you either, if we'd have to run, you'd not be able to and we don't want that, right? That means we have to travel at your pace, which isn't that fast. You could invest in a sleeping bag, I'm fine without and on some paths there are resting huts for the public to use, but they are somewhat of a doubled edged sword. Humans seek shelter an…

"If we're walking you won't even get to the next inn.", Azrael pointed out with a smirk. This journey had been hard enough on the priest and he'd not be able to keep up the pace, even if he rested for a night. He followed him inside the inn and let him talk, staying away from the two but listening. This was rather funny and it seemed like Ignatius never had to deal with anything like it. He had to give up and once he was tossed the key to their shared room, Azrael caught it and together they cli…

"I didn't want to scare you.", Richard answered, trying to figure out what Yujin really thought. It was impossible and maybe Yujin was totally fine with all this, but for some time he was awfully quiet too and that was unlike him. "Help me more?", he eventually asked and shook his head. "You're helping me more than you could imagine... you should have seen me back home and when I arrived here I didn't even talk for weeks..." Richard would have never admitted it to himself, but he did make progre…

Yujin jumped a bit when Richard touched him, before he even saw him. He turned around laughing and Richard looked at him apologetically. "Sorry...", he mumbled, kind of waiting for the verdict when Yujin looked him up and down. The touch, the pinch, he received was sudden and surprising. Of course Yujin wouldn't say or even think anything bad, but still, Richard wasn't so sure about this, but he also wouldn't just show everything else and rub it under his nose. "Are you sure...?" Yujin didn't re…

Yujin was happy and loud as ever and while Richard wanted to be pulled into all of that joy, he didn't quite manage to be, but he was still determined to follow him with a smile. They walked through the hallways and Richard wondered if he'd get cold feet, but he didn't, only literally, because this castle was way too cold outside of his room. The baths were the only other place he didn't shiver in and when they entered he enjoyed the humid air around them. Yujin closed the door, Richard apprecia…

"I think it's too late for salve...", Richard mumbled, hugging Yujin. He said to many nice things, but in a way Richard wondered if he did that just because he didn't want Richard to cry. "I don't want to be alone... I just want you to live." He was fine on his own for a bit, he had plenty things to do after all and he'd been fine today too when Yujin went out with his friends. "I always liked you..." Richard was the one who changed so much. How could Yujin fall for the Richard of the past and a…

"I don't want to be this weak.", Richard answered. He wanted to be normal, even if there wasn't much to go to here in Silesse. But he was scared of leaving this castle, he was even scared of walking the hallways alone. He knew most people didn't survive the climate here or at least lost the ability to fight, but those rats from Ollette found their ways, they might just pay someone who wasn't scared of Shuren. Richard clung to Yujin a bit more, as if that was enough to protect him here. Richard w…

"I... I know...", Richard mumbled, but still, he used to be daring and got Yujin to defy his fathers stupid rules. They did so many silly things together and even when Richard frowned, he enjoyed all of it. Yujin was the reason he started to feel alive again, the sole reason and now all of it was gone again. Yujin fixed him once, kind of, but this time? This time it seemed impossible to get normal again. The scars on his body would never heal, he'd have to live with them and see them all the tim…

"I know... but I can't even go to that place with you anymore... not that you took it well last time anyway." Did Yujin even remember? Probably not. Richard probably knew more about what happened to Yujin than Yujin himself right now. Either way though, Shuren didn't want them to look into it and Richard shouldn't test his hospitality. He didn't want to go back to Adrestia, he wanted to stay here, with Yujin. Richard couldn't deal with Dayan and he certainly didn't have the strength to fight aga…

Caelan chuckled. "I'm not jealous. I'm just saying that most others don't even care about mentioning the wolves." Ronan was like a hedgehog. Prickly and easily triggered - then he puffed up. But under all those stingers he was cute and soft. It was funny how he took every compliment as an insult, but maybe Caelan should start and try to get rid of that behavior. Ronan was amazing, but he himself was the last person to want to admit or see that. He constantly put himself down and although he had …

Ignatius didn't have to tell Azrael that he wasn't prepared for a journey like this, it was clear as day. He didn't ask why he was the one having to go on this journey to begin with, probably some weird church reason, Azrael didn't really care. He kept the pace and every now and then had them cut trough bushes and trees to make up time. When the sun slowly started to sink and vanish behind the treetops Azrael picked up the pace. He didn't mind sleeping outside, but they were close and even if th…

Despite Azraels mistrust, sadly the churches members made up many of his customers. Sometimes villages managed to scrape money together to pay a demonhunter to get rid of demons around their village, sometimes Azrael would work fpr cheap for a little family that needed protection on the road. He had a softspot for children and if he saw someone in need for help on the road, he would help too. Even priests, priests like Ignatius. He probably would have died on his own, if only because he'd eventu…

"I don't trust you.", Azrael made clear very quickly. This guy was a priest, that alone warranted his mistrust. Azrael didn't trust anyone if he was honest and maybe he ran his mouth a lot today, but either way, why would he be scared of one priest? If his brethren started to see Azrael as their new big target, he'd go to another area, where they didn't have an influence and eventually they'd forget about him again. The demon hunter didn't try to make enemies, but he certainly wouldn't act outsi…

"What? You alone? Besides, I thought you wanted a demon hunter around.", Azrael simply answered. He clearly didn't believe this priest could do anything to stop him. "I wasn't going to enter your monastery anyway and if you come back out with some soldiers ready to hunt me down, I'll be long gone. Wouldn't be the first time a priest has it out for a demon hunter." And it wasn't the first time a priest having it out for him either. Not because he made a lot of enemies, or conversations in the fir…

"Das habe ich. Eine Aufgabe für ein Körperteil. So funktioniert es. Es steht dir frei dieses Angebot nicht anzunehmen und anderswo Hilfe zu suchen.", erklärte Hideyoshi ruhig. Sein Garten lag ruhig da, die Grillen zirpten und ein seichter Wind fegte durch das Gras. Hideyoshi musste unweigerlich an seinen alten Freund denken, dem er trotz mehreren hundert Jahren Suche nicht helfen konnte. Jetzt, da eine weitere unglückliche Seele von einem ähnlichen Fluch belegt war, vielleicht konnte Hideyoshi m…

"Why would I believe in a god who lets all of this happen? The demon infestation, the slaughtering of those who never hurt anyone? Who never sinned, to say it in your words? Even if a god exists, he is cruel and I don't see why I should put my faith in someone like that.", Azrael argued. What did god ever do for anyone? His father had been very religious and he died protecting a so called holy place. No god saved him and when the church struggled to gain back control of the region, they killed A…

"How they teach us? I'm just observing. Do you think villagers care about which church settles near them? Which priests walk from door to door, offering prayers? It is all the same to us and nobody cares as long as they are left alone, but as soon as demons attack said region, who do the churches blame? Imganary witches and if they can't find some believable sluaghter lamb, then it's the demonhunters, or the lack of faith from the villagers. None if that is true. Demons aren't scared of your god…

"You priests usually state all that revolves around your believe as fact is all.", Azrael explained what he meant, but it didn't matter to him either way. Before crossing the river Azrael refilled his water and drank from it as well. One night without sleep was fine and he had eaten yesterday, so they should focus on traveling for now, just in case some demons tried to pick up their scent and tried following them. The river would help in getting rid of them, but Azrael questioned if going to a m…
