Mikhail gladly let Hope, his liege, in, while Sarah would groggily wake up, her eyes opening a little wide with surprise at Hope's apperance, before the girl would look at how the strange man approached Mikhail, who greeted him as a friend. She would stay on the bed as Hope spoke to her friend, who was at ease. Then, the girl would hear Mikhail ask:

"Who are you? Or rather, what are you?" Mikhail said. "From my inference, you seem to be a being of great power, perhaps from the 'Aether' the Cultists," he shuddered, "spoke of? And, you seem to be tied with the power of Hope."

"Second question; what would you have me do? How can I champion your cause?"

"Third, just who [i]was[/i] that Lead Cultist? Who are the enemy?"
