Kabal Fear


Kabal's eyes narrowed slightly as Lucius spoke to him. A place? Even for him? That was a strange thing to say... But if someone with as much confidence as the self-proclaimed leader of Liridale said it, it had to be true. So Kabal quietly accepted that he had a place. As Lucius continued, however, Kabal found himself becoming somewhat more interested. Had Lucius been watching him as well?

Kabal couldn't shake the question in his mind. Where had Lucius gotten all of his information? Kabal didn't usually go around tell his story to random passers by, so the only way Lucius could've gotten a hold of such old information was by happening upon it through some oddity. Kabal smiled slightly, closing his eyes as Lucius continued to speak. He was praising him? How very strange.

A small sound caught the pixie off guard, causing his eyes to snap open as a slight growl came from his throat. There was someone else here. As this new being approached, Kabal began to look him over. He sighed a little. He had seen this assassin around Liridale before. Truly a strange creature at best. Kabal had no words for describing the assassin aside from "odd" or "strange". Truthfully, he held a slight interest in the assassin, mostly because he was mysterious. Kabal smirked darkly as the assassin spoke.

"Master who is this?"


Kabal's eyes narrowed in amusement. Perhaps he was stealthier than he knew. Most of the citizens of Liridale didn't seem to know of his habitual stalking of their daily habits. That or they just didn't care. Perhaps they knew that Kabal wasn't worth the time it took to tell the pixie to stop staring... A small laugh came from Kabal's throat without him thinking. It was then something else caught his interest.

"I feel the great light again my lord."

The great light? Kabal's eyes widened slightly. This rang a bell, if only so slightly. Lucius voice interuptted his thoughts with a slight reminder of what exactly he should be thinking about.

"We've been over this, Patience, it's the information first, THEN any questions. Directive then inquisitive. You sound like you never went to school otherwise."


Kabal filed this thought away for later. He may need this information... Then again, he'd probably forget before too long. What was that splashing sound...? Running water...?

"Kabal, this is Patience, one of my assassins, Patience, Kabal, the Pixie I was planning on hiring on as a Dragon."

Kabal smirked and reached out a bloody hand. He didn't truly expect the assassin to shake, but it was considered polite to attempt. He opened his mouth to say something, but no sound came out. Odd. He would just have to accept that this wasn't something he was good at either. He took his hand away without really giving Patience the time to shake it. It was then Kabal realized he hand just been referred to as a dragon. He put one hand to his horns and rubbed them slightly. He was almost positive Lucius had called him a pixie earlier... Was he a dragon...? That might be somewhat more fitting... But could he turn into a dragon...? And that sound... What was it?

"A second-in-command, someone I give tasks I want done, the guy who gets said stuff done? But I'm getting distracted, you said a light, can you be more specific? The job can't be considered if I lack understanding of it."

"Second-in-command?" Kabal's voice came out very low. Was he really...? He scratched his arm and looked to the ground. Lucius knew better than he did... Perhaps he could succeed in finishing tasks if Lucius told him to. His eyes suddenly flashed up at the mention of the light again. This time, he remembered.

"The light? I have some recollection of a certain 'light' that may be linked to a certain time and place... Event..." An unnerving grin came to his face as he began to recall more details. "A certain... Person." He looked to Patience with a somewhat less lazy stare. This might be a good chance.

"I would be more than happy to investigate. I remember a good deal about this light. Beside, I fear for your safety being that neither of you are particularly... Light yourselves." With this comment, Kabal created a small flash of light in his hand, just for the emphasis. It was one of the few things he could do, so he felt that he might as well show them what he meant. Pixies, while pranksters, where not usually considered 'evil'. Despite his unnerving look, he might be able to figure out more about what this light had in store without getting caught.

Of course, he could care less about the job itself. He more just wanted the chance to observe. This light was interesting. Something new, or at least something that didn't happen often. Kabal's eyes went to Lucius. There was still that sound. Water..? He swore something in the nature felt out of place... Perhaps it was just the fairy in him hating Liridale. Now he had to know... He let out a breath of laughing gas. If there was an unexpected laughing, at least it would explain the sound.

"I apologize for this." His voice was rough. He still hadn't gotten used to speaking. He created quite a bit more laughing gas; starting to snicker a bit himself.
