Sol was the first one to speak out, telling that he was not completely forgiving the man, but Zaven’s admission was a step in the right direction. He also spoke about giving more trust to his team and he wanted to speak then to refute or to show his methods, but…it was not the time to do so…or rather Sol continued and stated he was going to stay in the Royal Knights under his captaincy and then asking Valo for help he saw the Royal Knight step forward as he seemed to want to talk next and he spoke saying that his trust had not wasted away, before commenting that he was hungry and picking up his teammate Sol. Again he wanted to speak, but instead he chose to instead nod, while the next to speak finally came up…He felt his spirit drop, a feeling spread across him as he heard Hinota speak up, cutting through the voices present. It was a tone that was pleasant to his ears, but then the note turned sour soon after…the title of foolish was easily given to him, it was something he was used to hearing from her, not entitling him directly at times, but his works. [break][break] She then spoke about the two of them, saying that they knew very little of each other since they did not often interact outside formal settings or official capacities. He wanted to speak up, the fire in his eyes turned to ice as he listened, and he breathed deeply and rapidly, almost noticeably as he kept his gaze transfixed upon her. She then said that not knowing about his own self was maybe due to a past event and he nearly sneered as he felt anger well up amongst his other myriad of emotions. Then the same thing she said several times, about being a pacifist and doubting herself at being a knight, and then her discomfort at being placed in a command position or a tactical lead. He kept himself there, breathing slowed now as he was beginning to reach a new thought process. Then she compared his actions to the adventure she went on in the past where she encountered some dragons…but still saying he did what he did because that was what he thought best. He just nodded, understanding what she said. Then she gave a suggestion that struck him, he told them in the beginning he was not going to be going easy, he picked the weakest in terms of offensive power to lead while he was going to be the one enemy…he did not sugar coat it, he does not do that. This suggestion she gave struck him like a slap, and he was offended even with his neutral face. Then she reminded him of the training outing, which was at first trying to set her up to be a combatant, but soon he found that to be a mistake…which that trip ended with him being cursed and he was really finding that same curse to be messing with him now. He tried empathy, he tried being a better more just person…yet all he was struck with was insults to his personality and character from someon….no not someone, this was a woman he not only had his eyes on to keep safe, but because he was honestly interested in her…however now…now he was struck with a new realization. She was going to remain what she was and true to herself, and in the end if she died…it was because she did all she could, the thought sickened Zaven. Then she spoke up at being paired with Sol and Magnus stating the best she could do was point out weakness and he nodded at her words, even allowing her to bring her retainers into the equation. Finally though a scene he witnessed before but now had a different gravity to it as she went to Valo and introduced Magnus to Valo, Sol in turn as well before offering to cook for him even though Zaven stated there would be food prepared for them…He honestly, had no words to spare at the moment so he moved to Magnus. [break][break] The elder of the noble family asked for forgiveness on his tardiness and then spoke saying that there was no need for concern with his apology, but then offered up his own and stating he would speak rather uncouth but nonetheless he said he was there to learn and to become better at what this was…this being the job of a knight…a daemon slayer…a Royal warrior of Clover. He thought that the first part of his explanation would go into another tangent about his leadership but it did not. For now he just nodded and looked at them all once everyone had said their piece and the group was around Magnus. “All of you are dismissed, recoup and eat…we will meet tomorrow at daybreak.” He said as he was the first to take his leave, not heading to the west wing where he had given them free reign. Instead he went back to the training circle and sat down slowly. [break][break] 2 hours later [break][break] Zaven was now in the dungeons under the Blake estate. He was there for specific reasons, and to change something about his own life…something that Hinota pointed out was causing him to not be able to function properly as he did not know himself. That night there would be small outbursts of shadow mana from under the manor, one might overlook it as this was the shadowlands but there was a story there in those pulses of mana. Zaven had cut his left wrist and filled a brass bowl, in his right hand after placing the ebony and silver ornate blade on the ground was a book…a journal written by an ancient member of the Blake family his own father kept before him…one treasure that survived the Shattering…he began to speak in an old tongue that was taught to him when he was a child. He was rusty, but soon he spoke the final sentence… ”I summon thee, benefactor of House Blake, Solgen the Unseen.” The last syllable to leave his lips and the blood in the brass bowl ignited in a purple and azure flame, Zaven noted that the colors corresponded with his own mana color pre and post Shattering. Then a voice…”I was wondering when you would seek my wisdom…spawn of House Blake…what is it you desire?” the voice spoke, there was no physical form, but there was a pressure…strong enough to crack the walls and floor around him. Zaven did not budge. ”I wish to make a bargain.” He would say as a sinister laugh would fill the dungeon under the Blake manor…Zaven would not sleep that night as after the meeting with the benefactor Solgen he performed one other feat…a removal of a memory of the past… [break][break] That morning he was already in the mana field, the same practice arena where they left…sitting, though this time he wore no upper body clothing, instead he was covered in a great wrapping of bandages. He was meditating with his spirit Hraban slowly moving outside the mana enriched zone as the spirit seemed…anxious at a glance.
