We're the ones that made you

Elias watched the child with incredible interest, though did notice how uncomfortable it made the boy for Elias to be standing so close, staring into his eyes. He must have looked like such a fucking psycho-- oh, wait.

Elias' ears went back partially as he listened, taking a step back from the child though he couldn't help but stand a little taller, a little more proud. This was his child, and although he suffered the same mania as himself (something Elias would never wish upon anyone), it meant that.. Elias was no longer alone. These haunting voices were no longer something only he knew.

Who knew it could be genetic?

Then the question came, and Elias nearly flinched with the expectation that such a question might summon either his father or Katar. His eyes drifted around them, searching every shadow for movement. His father was the epitome of darkness, Dominus was a massive creature.. bigger than any wolf he'd ever seen in his life and blacker than ink. He only had one eye, his other plucked from his skull but it seemed to gift him with an incredible sense of certainty for what lay on the other side.

Elias took a breath before pulling together his thoughts. "I hear those that have fallen in our family. We have a ritual.. for when a loved one dies.. our practices keep them bound with us for eternity. Some of them never truly go quiet." Schizophrenic or not, Elias still believed in these practices whole-heartedly.. though there was something about the look in his eyes as he connected his gaze with Bellum's once again that might have foretold he was still withholding something.

What was interesting, however, was this child's ability to hear voices without completing such a ritual.. who were they? Why did this child have such conflicting eye colors? Whatever it was.. it was interesting enough now that Elias could not simply let the boy walk out of his life. Already, he was struggling with his desires. Could he persuade him, or would he be forced to keep him captive...? No... he.. he wouldn't keep someone against their will. Not again. Would he?
