Quote: Agelast seers would've mused, dancing amongst the acronycal light, their movements synthetic and possessed by their mysticism. They would move as if pulled by blackened vines throughout the debris, their eyes glazed over, and after such moments would they freeze. Calculating every movement, they would leave as if parting from a loved one they had parted times aplenty. Seers and the like were peculiar beings, appearing enigmatic ? however, all that he had known were masks to an elaborate foundation. Such foundation that had slowly crumbled, unforeseen to its inhabitants until a fateful and lark event caused it all to topple, all that was had become slumbering and diminished.

(Day and night - beside my own reflection. Where do you hail from, monsieur? I yearn to know.") He listened, distantly. "Yearn, do you?" A slight tip of head occupied by an absent expression. "I hail from the innards of a once empire, it slumbered amongst its own wake," Vocals hummed, unmoved by his words, "Madelle?" He wondered what such an encounter could offer him, if it indeed lasted.
