14th oath of the moment: Legion of One

[lunawolves10th]

11 PM, backdated to Wednesday night. Action 1, locked to 2237 Stevens Residents: [ Garviel awakens after a day of droning, and the awakening is not a gentle one. A yell of pain can be heard, and then silence, aside from his heavy steps as he descends the stairs of the home and swiftly armors himself in his Astartes plate without a word to anyone

[Insomnia gripping Crowe again, he heads out for a walk to help tired himself out and clear his head in the cool summer night air. When he hears the noise coming from behind, he ducks into the shadows, completely unseen, and waits to see what the source is.]

[lunawolves10th]

[ The source is a transhuman nightmare. A darkness-stalking angel of death with one hand on a chainsword, the other balled into a fist, searching the night with blazing red eyes, and a stance that suggests seething anger.]

[perfektsymmetry]

[There's something familiar about the form, and the sword is a dead giveaway. Crowe had noticed Garviel droned - just one of the many friends of his droned in the last two weeks. Something was different though, very different. Not wanting to jump out at him, Crowe waits until he as at the other end of the block before emerging.]

...Garviel?

[lunawolves10th]

[ The figure turns, almost thumbing the sword to life. Almost. It sees the figure emerging, his targeting routines and helmet displays feeding into his occulobe, identifying the target. He speaks, almost hesitantly, his voice raw, as if he hasn't used it in some time.]

Crowe.

[Not requiring sleep and lacking in duties to occupy that time Eiki had nothing particular to do. The reason she was out was because it was quiet and peaceful, a sense that she felt the day lacked. Also the stars were bright and colourful at this time when most the lights of the town were properly out as the residence slept.

As she's star gazing she can't help but feel a familiar presence yet....]

There is something different about you tonight verses last we spoke.

[lunawolves10th]

How observant, Eiki. [His body, roiling with emotion, and banked anger moves like a beast, not a man, as he approaches.]

[nothing_is_grey]

[Her attitude is no different than it ever is and she makes no reaction to how he is right now.]

It is obvious to see, in fact it's hard to ignore. I assume a great change has come to you recently.

[lunawolves10th]

Two great changes, yes. I lost myself for many months.... and then I was redeemed, and returned to myself. And given a new purpose, of sorts.

Hmmm...

[ beat ]

You were gone?

[lunawolves10th]

Yes, I was.... who is this?

[partytoastess]

Nena Trinity!!

Duh!

[lunawolves10th]

Nena. Of course. And how do you fare?

[Why is she gardening at night? Who knows, maybe she was bored, but she tilts her head at the read eyes and stompyness]

"Hrm... I see a man who has just been cast from the tower. Or is this the shadow of a man seeking to be whole again?"

[lunawolves10th]

Why don't you tell me, seer?

[elevatoravatar]

"Alas, I lack the cards to properly tell fate. However, if you wish to unburden yourself with the stories of the past, I will gladly listen."

[lunawolves10th]

Very well. How much do you already know?

[That familiar pointy-eared figure is leaning against a tree, cast in total blackness. Again, he chooses to be the first to speak.]

. . . You've changed, haven't you?

[Observant Bat is observant. Or intuitive Bat is intuitive, take your pick.]

You don't have to say anything. You don't need to. You've hardened . . . evolved into perhaps something even greater than before.

[He steps out from the shadows, wrapped (of course) in his cape.]

What was the catalyst for this change?

[lunawolves10th]

Death.

[His own, or that of someone else he'll leave for the Bat to figure out for the moment.]

You like the night, don't you? A... lord of the night.

[The armored figure shifts as though amused at a private joke.
