    It was not a reassuring scene. Even without looking Hawkflesh could smell the blood seep into Kuuga's clothes and spill from her shoulder. "Are you sure about this?" The sword held in the air before him looked foolish in his eyes until it bucked and he suddenly felt the strange creature on the...

    "What?" She let go and the thing disappeared. "Fuck!" Affixing both hands to the handle of his sword Hawkflesh tried to keep steady, tried to keep the knowing of the thing he could not see there anymore. "Be quick!" Not daring to look away from the absence before him he tread to keep steady...

    "I'm hungry for this to be over." She had some strength in her for such a short woman and as he glanced at her to acknowledge the pain in his hand the creature came upon them in a spectral swoop thinking it had it's chance. The sound mingled with the smell foul in the air about them and in a...

    Chuckling as he sat Hawkflesh decided on a genteel pose, legs together and bent to the side, propped up by his arm. He did not bother covering himself just to display his manhood with an ungainly position. "The strong stuff please and as much as you can spare." Realising that he was in a most...

    "Wonderful!" Hawkflesh held out his sword, at the ready, fencing while attached to someone was new and bothersome. Despite this his hand was steady in the air as a stone on the earth and he wondered about the story he was told, this thing was once gentle if Kuuga could be believed. "Hardly...

    Hey you, you are finally awake

    That was good to hear, he had his own magical problems to deal with and it was reassuring to confirm that his new companion was versed in this form of warfare. Without a word, only an affirming nod, Hawkflesh skulked around to the other guard. The timing had to be quick, almost perfect. The...

    It took his eyes a moment to adjust but he saw them all clear enough. Such strangeness he had never thought, from odd to obscene and all in between. "These, spirits reside here?" It was looking at a warped reflection of reality. A window into another stage of existence. He allowed Kuuga to...

    "You're a saint Rhosyn. Worthy of Erberts written histories." The collected works were common in the West Coast but this far east Hawkflesh doubted they held much significance. Standing he gave her a soft smile, one that looked odd against the sharpness of his features in the contrast of the...

    "I don't want eyes and hands of my own I've had enough of eyes and hands! I'm here to get rid of all of this from my life not take up ghost hunting as a hobby." Hawkflesh drew his weapon and prepared himself, much as he could before extending his hand to Kuuga ready to receive this *sight* she...

    "Well this is unsettling yet familiar!" Hawkflesh had ascended the steps and found Kuuga waiting for him. He did not expect to be there first (especially since he had been held up at the last pub he was at and now that he was drunk just enough to not let how creepy all this was bother him he...

    Following and glad to be taken somewhere now that he was also starting to feel the cold he traipsed after Rhosyn, hastily gathered things bundled in his free arm. His boots clattered to the ground on the porch as he entered, hunched and still topless with dripping wet trousers. "Ohhhh!" He...

    Having only a vague notion of what the plan was did not deter him at all however he would have been happier if they could get to it right away. "Sundown it is, at the cemetery then." Taking up his sword and hitching it back on his belt Hawkflesh went to the door eager to get away from the...

    "Shut up you fur covered dandy or I'll punt you again and this time you won't come back down." Hawkflesh smiled at Mirani like wolf in a pigpen and answered with a dangerous excitement in his voice. "You have to ask Browneyes?" He spat again and stood up towering over half the troop. Hooked...

    "Wonderful!" He was getting short, the woman's implacable manner irked him fiercely and he grew impatient. Hawkflesh knew himself well that impatience was a big obstacle for himself so he took a breath and settled his hands on the table again and spoke through gritted teeth. "This, Honzui of...

    His eyes went wide and he leaned on the table to emphasis what he thought she was getting at. He'd be lying if he said he wasn't tempted. This thing has chased him across the world and it was terrible. Worse than that and it was enough to make him want to say yes but then he saw them, just a bit...

    More metaphors wonderful. Did this woman ever just say what she meant? "How? You cannot make me attune to magic, it doesn't work like that. You either can weave the shroud or you can't there's no way to change that." He was getting frustrated, this woman only said said half of what she knew at...

    "A mouth?" Perhaps her traders tongue was not as fluent as it first seemed. And spirits? How was he to do battle against such things? "Look, even if I said yes to this and right now I have not." He patted the hilt of his weapon. "I have only this, I cannot move the Shroud and I cannot talk to...

    The woman spoke in ominous riddles and Hawkflesh sat upright to look at her. "You mean I have to kill people." Again. For all his talk of how it made things easier in some ways Hawkflesh had rarely killed anyone since Plumhollow and even before that his run in with the Greencloaks has given...

    Truth was a lot harder to admit than lies. A lie would be that he did not feel the hairs on the back of his neck give warning as the woman approached. A lie would be that he did not think about cutting her down and fleeing the city because he recognised something in the very real power she...

    There was more, there was the part he had never told anyone. There was what happened to the others. Five of them went into that forest and only he came out. "It took Storkwax first. After he disappeared we were lost, he always kept us together. He was a good leader. After him went Crowpitch...
