    Soft laughter left Kilam's lips as Zayad spoke of why he kept his head shaved. "A full moon? Spirits preserve us; if they bless you anymore, you might find yourself transcendent amongst many. Ever enlightened beyond the need of anything." His chuckle continued lightly as Zayad told the story...

    Private Needle in a Haystack

    Kilam had never seen the man, but he had heard some rumors and stories of the stout man's stature. Recent reports that had crossed his desk did not have a description for him. At least not one as direct in relation to his hair as it was to his overall movement and health. "It is said that he is...

    "This one here is a keen mind, learn from him Kilam.. Learn as you should have done ages ago.." The fiend's voice cooed loudly, but he gave no sign of discomfort. Allowing only a calm smile, the man turned to better face Zayad calmly as he listened and watched. "Wisdom comes in time and...

    It was strange, really. Kilam was pretty sure he had told the other exactly why he was here. A sounding board for the events at hand. As expected, the other did not fully believe his words, but he had been speaking mostly from the heart despite their occupation. The honeyed voice did not match...

    Private Which Once Shone Before, the Sun

    Back then... Laughter echoed through the halls of Miraj'Dah as Malik and Kilam ran together. A small assortment of house pets followed in their wake, yipping and hopping in joy. "Mali! Come, the last one to the shrine is a sunken fool!" Kilam laughed as he skipped ahead by a step. Times were...

    Private Which Once Shone Before, the Sun

    From the corner of his eye, Kilam mused at the other as water and a palm full of cool grapes were placed in Malik's grasp. "Here, there is plenty to spare, and wells along the way should we need to restock. To answer your other question, it has recently rained upon these lands. Thus, the array...

    Private Which Once Shone Before, the Sun

    Ah, this young lad reminded Kilam of himself. Also favored by his own mother, it was almost comical that their situation was nearly the same. Yet in the back of his mind, he still pondered why this stout figure seemed so familiar to him. Offering a smile, golden hues took in Malik's measure...

    Private Which Once Shone Before, the Sun

    Days Prior.. Minutes had turned to hours as Kilam buried himself deep within his studies. Forbidden work kept to the shadows alone, even though in the shadows, he was never truly alone. Under the guise of opposition, he studied his own condition, the cross of magi-tech, and the human condition...

    Zayad spoke truths and caution in a single breath. Still, Kilam kept the smile upon his lips. Gently nodding his head to shake off the voice within. Betrayal of the mind was not to be tolerated on this mission. "Be still, fiend, and listen well to all you hear through me. If we are to share in...

    Private Needle in a Haystack

    Stroking his chin lightly, Kilam admired Zayad's admission of being chained. He, too, had his own chains, ones he did not want to speak about. 'You can't ignore me forever Kilam..' The voice in his mind sent a chill down his spine; he didn't recall when the voice first began. Blinking a few...

    Private Needle in a Haystack

    Metallic fingers shifted and twitched as Kilam let his mind rock with the cart. A single drop led to ripples that soon overflowed his cup. Then came Zayad's musings about The Martyr. Lips pursed shut as he let the silence answer that dual musing for the time being. "Is the memory in truth, or...
  12. Kilam

    Private Blood, Shroud, and Magi-Tech

    It was almost as if the gods had a twisted sense of humor. Even as he had been observing the area before him, the one he sought had found him instead. Popping up from behind his body, a calm gaze flashed with keen insight. His lips curled into a deep smile as she asked about a healer. A low...

    Private Needle in a Haystack

    Smiling over his tea, Kilam was not truly concerned about their presence. He only wished to get on the road sooner rather than later. A firm shake of his head told the other they did not need to speak in the least. Even as the tea vanished, he rose with ease, gesturing for the door. "I hear...

    Private Needle in a Haystack

    Time danced on by like a slow melody as tavern tunes played in the firelight. Laughter ebbed and flowed in sync, flavors of fish and fresh herbs washed over Kilam's taste buds. Gentle grunts of satisfaction left him as he scarfed down the first plate, then the second. Sparing a glance at the...

    Private Needle in a Haystack

    Dark robes clung to Kilam as he strode through a small town in the region of Whiteport, his left arm remained swaddled in a neat black and gold spotted silk. Lanterns guided the man as he stared at the dust clay clay-hued sky. Tugging his hood closer, the fabric kept the breeze away along with...
