He'd already adapted fairly well to the city - at the least, he knew where to go and how best to get there, the quickest, quietest way, that was, because secrecy was natural to him now, simply how life was as opposed to the precaution it had been, long ago. He had waited in the ample cover provided by the opposite building until the first arrived. Angeal Hewley. Whilst he had not met the man himself, he had seen him through Zelda's eyes.
She confirmed the name from somewhere within, but he waited a little longer before actually moving. Seeing through another's eyes was one thing - like looking through some kind of lens - but seeing with one's own was another. The wing was an oddity, novel, but apparently so where the man came from, too. He had to wonder at the significance of it. And how one wing enabled someone to fly...
