A deal had been struck at the meeting that would allow Malleus and one of his cousins, Seth, to receive lessons from Pyralis' slave Lydia. The titan was pleased with this arrangement; he had much to learn and from what he'd heard this Lydia woman was pretty good. It was in the family's best interest for the pair to glean as much from her as they could, as quickly as they could. Keeping a captive was a tedious thing and their loyalty couldn't always be counted on. All it took was a little spite on the captive healer's part and the patient could end up dead. It would be better to have members of the family well versed in the craft.

The slave woman's howl wasn't unexpected so it took Malleus no time at all to reach her. He was surprised to see that Seth had beaten him there. It wasn't surprising, however, to hear the gimp address the slave woman so sweetly. Why Seth bothered, Malleus didn't know. She was a mortal slave and as long as she was respectful to her superiors she deserved some small amount of dignity...but at the end of the day she was still just a slave. Perhaps the little man felt some kind of kinship to the woman given their respective lowly statuses? He could only guess at the motives of his cousin.

"We are here," he took it upon himself to answer his cousin's question for no other reason than that he had the answer, "To receive lessons in healing from her. Pyralis has boasted about this woman's abilities." The titan moved to stand beside Seth and await instruction.


Malleus has a barbary macaque companion named Pascal. Unless he is mentioned IC it's safe to assume he's not with Malleus.
