trapped in my mind

Plague felt as though he had so carelessly shown deep weakness to this stranger. His cheeks burned with continuous embarrassment as he stared at Void. An internal monologue repeated within his riddled mind. After so much training to be sharp he had let his guard down with such ease. A mountain of all things destroyed all of those many walls that were built. What had really ignited this flood of anxiety was Voids offer to bring Plague to a healer. 'Do I look that bad? Can this stranger see the wounds inside?'

After a moment of little to no contemplation Plague shook his head. "Thank you but there is no need." Plague didn't think any doctor could cure his troubles. Only time could cure the pain of losing Archon. 'But is that all that's wrong?' He shoved away the invasive thoughts with a flick of his tail. Clearly avoiding the question. "I was just lost in thought is all." A pause and a small raise of his head. "I am Plague Klein-Abraxas of Ashen." Rarely did he offer the entire length of his name but he felt like he should do it more often. Being surrounded by Kleins he needed a reminder of the other side of his family.

With a small wrinkle of his nose Plague looked towards the more pleasant landscape of the ocean. "Do you belong to the pack near here?" He looked over the region to distract himself from his own worries. The flat of the cliffs was littered with small wildflowers and other plants. It was a beautiful region with a danger looming over and around it.
