Toplevel your character. Include any details you might think are relevant. Or don't. As always, we're not the cops. 2. Reply to other people's top levels! 3. Have fun! ⚔ Please clearly mark all spoilers in your thread subject lines. Clearly indicate whatever spoiler preferences you may have.

Oh? And I suppose that you don’t know what he’s going to do next, either.

[angeloftruth]

He brought Zenos into it. Not even Zodiark Himself knows.

[poisontippedcure]

[She sighs.]

And now that’s a problem I’m going to have to deal with, too. Lovely.

You don’t seem too fond of your sire.

[angeloftruth]

Sire?

[Blink.]

What, you think Elidibus is older than I am? Or do you mean my great-grandson, because no. I'm not especially fond of him. I had hoped he'd be a wonderful tool for us, but he's too obsessed with hunting and killing to be any good.

this is why you don't tag at 2 am folks

[poisontippedcure]

Really? I thought his obsession with hunting and killing would serve your people well. He is quite good at causing chaos.

[angeloftruth]

If you had an uncontrollable weapon, would you use it even if it was the best weapon available?

[poisontippedcure]

That depends, what’s my goal?

[angeloftruth]

Victory.

[poisontippedcure]

At what cost? You said your goal was to cause chaos on the source, was it not?

[angeloftruth]

Any cost, of course. Think about it, I am willing to kill countless of your people to achieve my goal and I still refuse to use my great-grandson.

[poisontippedcure]

It’s nice to know that even his own family can’t stand him. It would’ve been nice if he stayed dead the first time.

[angeloftruth]

I'm inclined to agree. His father was always one of my favorites, easy enough to manipulate and smart enough to figure things out on his own, but I've no idea where Zenos went wrong.

[poisontippedcure]

I’d like to say the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree, but even you seem to be more reserved than Zenos. Perhaps he was spoiled?

[angeloftruth]

[He shrugs.]

I haven't the faintest. He was only allowed in my presence when necessary and I certainly didn't have a hand in raising him.

[poisontippedcure]

[She shrugs.]

By the by, how would you kill him, given the chance? Now that he possesses the echo.

[angeloftruth]

You will likely have to do it and you will likely have to be alone, with no other bodies around.

[poisontippedcure]

Yes. That doesn’t sound like a recipe for disaster.

[angeloftruth]

You asked. Two souls such as yours cannot possess the same body, and given that your soul is infinitely stronger...
