Taming the Beast [China]

[Nox]

The internet was a buzz with the small tremors. Granted Nox had to use translators to read the local articles. But it didn't take much to find seismic data that he could throw into his laptop and see where the epicenter of it all happened from. Aurora and Sage didn't much care about languages it was all about numbers in this instance, and those he could read easily enough. And the mapping software well it was easy enough to configure to show him exactly what he wanted to see.

Tracking and hunting monsters had always been easy when you use more than what you see with your own two eyes. Aurora had insisted on it even when their father hadn't. He hadn't had to do much lately -- nothing was tracking down the monsters. He had been hunting the same ones. And there was an odd tug to them lately -- like something was changing or they were getting stronger. But at the present he couldn't really determine what it all was. And it didn't matter because he knew where this guy was holing up.

Nox didn't have a true name. He didn't need one. This guy was causing earth quakes that rivaled the Ascendancy's display at the Red Square. He was bringing down buildings, causing tidal waves. Nothing good came from upsetting the local balance of things. All because he thought he could.

The man wasn't making a grand statement. Just proving he was a good. "I quake the land." and the land would shake.

He had a small cult starting to follow him. He was the reason all other godlings got a bad rap. It was how the war against the gods started. It should have started early and maybe it had. What really can the humans do against a god?

But he had a place and he'd stake it out for a little while. Though he was going to stand out like a sore thumb here. Thankfully it was getting colder by the day and bundling up wasn't out of the question even if he didn't need it. He'd have to go shopping. Nox's lip curled, he hated shopping.
