That sounds pretty bad. I can't say I've dealt too much with the metaphysical over my travels." The man's eyes looked honest and his tone sounded genuine. His general nature was quick to put one at ease. He put down his briefcase carefully and approached TAAron, as though to get a better look at him. A duel spirit hissed in Wynn's head. She shook it, juggling conflicting instincts. Well, at least he's probably not a space demon. "What's in the briefcase?" 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can open it if you want, just be careful and don't steal." 1 minute ago, Ookla the Untitled said: Nameless watched Scis carefully, forming weaves of air to bind the stranger if he made any sudden moves. Quote His name is Sicarius, planet is Scis. Sicaruis turned to Nameless. "I never did ask your name. I'm Sicarius, I assume you heard that?" He held out his hand to shake. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wynn stared into the distance. "The god of war is somewhere in this little dimension. If he hasn't noticed us yet, he probably will soon." She pulled herself back to the subject at hand. "Anyway, yes, it's pretty bad. For some reason the god's intent on destroying us, especially this one right here. If he was awake, he could probably explain things better.
