Lily was asleep so Nox spoke softly once he heard the voice on the otherside. He was supposed to bed dead. Why was he reaching out? Nox hadn't beleived they were dead, Ayden was good at her job, but why was he reaching out.
Nox bounced Lily softly as he paced back and forth. He reached into the slime of the horde and grasped the power on the otherside. He wondered if it was getting worse or if he was just repulsed by it more and more. Probably a little bit of both. The more he accepted it the more he hated himself for it. He wove a bubble of silence around his body and spoke at a normal voice but to the world he was just mouthing along to something on his earbuds. And Lily was none the wiser to his conversation. Sage was the only person who knew, and that's because he was always listening in. Nox never doubted it. And from the way Sage sat up right he knew and he was already tracing and tracking and doing all the things he did. Connor should have stayed dead.
"This is Nox. And I remember you. You don't owe me anything, I'm just doing my job. You are supposed to be dead. Why are you reaching out to me? To an Atharim you barely know, and I know for she doesn't trust me, not even a little bit."
