Snippet #1738314

He sat there a moment taking in the area, the scenery, the fact that he had forgotten all about the things that had happened moments ago. The phoenix in the sky was nothing more than a fascinating sight, no one that he had known of had seen one before and yet here he was sitting in the vicinity of one. Well not an actual phoenix but still it was something that his spirit creator could conjure, and that still meant something. The bird beat its wings against the darkened sky. He felt another jolt, almost like the one he felt before, but this one was different there was no discomfort, but more felt like someone was seeing what he saw.

Had Falwich tried to find him? He had just disappeared from the group a moment ago, so that seemed to be the sensible thought, which the telepath was searching for him, and if he had seen through Kaine’s eyes, he was one more of the lucky few to take on the sights of the majestic fire bird.

Of all the years that Kaine could remember there wasn’t a name given to him by the spirit itself, more or less he just called it by whatever form it took at the moment that he had seen it, though this seemed a bit much, he was bothered by the events that had taken place, the fact that everyone would change, gain, and possibly lose abilities as they lived out their long lives. Had he been wrong moments ago, to lash out at a friend? He couldn’t really keep his train of thought on the matter much; eyes still on the bird.

He had given Vance his word that he trusted his decisions, there was no going back on that now or ever, no matter how harsh the leader sounded, or irrational his decisions seemed. This planet was their home, but it wasn’t going to be around much, of that the faction made sure when they decided on mass genocide of the human race.

He looked down over the landscape, everything looked the way it did because of them, them being the other four that he shared a connection with, everyone knew the risks to be taken, yet still they steered that course, and this was their punishment in a sense. Strangely he didn’t feel anything about that, it was decided that that was the course of action and even with all the cons, the pros still weighed more; they were free, free to do what they wanted, no one to control them, harass them, or undermine their lives, and that was enough.

He felt he should apologize for his outburst earlier, but he would wait, for a better moment than the talk that was probably taking place right now, he should get back.

He thought about the castle again, but not the throne room, one of the many hallways he walked down many times, one near the throne room, walking distance, he had to think on how he would explain his new powers, though in reality he didn’t know anything about ‘em, he simply thought of the location and poof he was there, that wouldn’t sit well in the minds of anyone……

He closed his eyes and thought of the hallway, when he opened them again he was there, within walking distance of the room where all his comrades were, he took his time, almost brooding on what he could say. He stopped staying out of site at the doorway; maybe if he didn’t let the others know he was back they could finish this little debate.

The looks on their faces said everything yet nothing at all. This was the first time Kaine had seen Falwich at a loss of words so much that his brows furrowed, as he sat there silently in his chair. It brought a smile to his face, and killed his thoughts about hiding.

He slowly entered the room behind the others, the only one facing him at the time was Vance, though Kiera was off to one side, she could see him easily as well, Elei still facing the leader.

He was quiet, so as to not bring attention to himself, he leaned against a wall and took in the sites and conversations. This was a time for him to be silent.
