"You don't wanna?" she asked, although it was more of a statement than a question. You could practically see the gears turning in her head, as the demon stared at you for a moment longer. "I don't understand, 'Ro. I always talked about this. And now, now I can do it. I can crush the veil and rule Limbo [i]and[/i] Earth with you. It's why I made sure you'd be Sorcerer Supreme... So we could do it together." "But you don't [i]wanna[/i]," Ananym then snapped, sniffling slightly and wiping a stray tear away. The tear was made of blood. "And you're ruining [i]everything[/i]!" Her pupils narrowed, contracting into slits. She curled her hands into fists. Now might be a good time to think about your survival, Carolina. Demons express love in a way similar to hate.

It was not so much that it took them great effort to suppress those telltale emotions, but that they had sacrificed such things on the altar long ago. If they smiled, it was minimal and slight. Any tears were brief and dry. Frowns were unneeded, particularly because the wrinkles on their face already gave them a slight frown - not that they knew, of course. They could feel the texture of their skin under their hands, but habitually checking felt much like vanity. They had been vain, once. [color=#a81a75]"I agree. The veil must be renewed or Midgard will be subjected to a multitude of threats,"[/color] Runa said, weighing her opinion in accordance with Jack's. She inclined her head in the direction of Klara, staring at the girl with empty sockets. [color=#a81a75]"Klara Thordattir, apologize, now,"[/color] she chided. [color=#a81a75]"You know better than to speak to another like that."[/color] Particularly when Jack was right. And the information he was giving was important and necessary. The Stepping Discs were wild and unpredictable, and not an option. It would be leaving things up to chance, and given the hell dimension they were trapped within, it was entirely possible that matters would only become worse. Jack's plan that they attempt to contact the Sorceress Supreme of Limbo was sound. Perhaps she might be able to transport them to Midgard, where they can cast the spell necessary to repair the veil... But at the same time, unease filled Runa. Ananym had not seemed to particularly try to kill them - and had even offered to help send them back to Midgard. They were missing something, a piece of the puzzle that did not quite connect... But what could it be? What was Witchfire's play? Annika posed a suitable follow-up question - how they might find the Sorceress. And moments later, Runa felt a low growl vibrate into her body, hitting their empty chest cavity. Their heart was long since gone. And that was not a metaphor. [color=#a81a75]"Are you attempting to tell us something, Maximilian?"[/color] Runa asked. [color=#a81a75]"I do not suppose any of you are well versed in telepathy?"[/color]
