Onward to Stone! [T]

[💀]

Through the cloying heat and tree's Hecate dragged the body of this shinobi she never learned the name of, sucking in breath after breath as she traveled. Surely this body would please Jashin? She had gathered his severed limb and tucked it in his clothing, making sure it didnt fall loose during the long journey. She was a little tired but the thrill of her latest kill had when she reached the edge of Hi no Kuni, she was back in her boat.

"Fucking hate boats." She grumbled, a slip in her good mood, the body she dragged weighing her down slightly during the journey. With her compass out she sailed around Lightning Country, her scythe and Rapier on her back, a slew of gems, two yoyo's, a meter of rope and wire, a gasmask with a single filter, a C filter already inserts while she was carrying an A filter just in case. The waters rocked slightly and put the Jashinist to sleep nearly, her travel landing her in Earth Country.

Off the coast a bit Godric is looking for a beasty. He had a carriage that had no windows. The interior was of velvet red furnishings. It was quite rooming in there and if one were to put a coffin it could fit. Perhaps a capacity to hold four or more people. The only problem with this lavish carriage is the fact it had no animal to pull it. Something Godric is looking to remedy. Of course the moon is out, the sun in its twighlight, perhaps it was 9pm or even 10pm. Either way he was safe from the UV of light from the day.

An onlooker might first note what Godric was wearing. This trip might pose to be a long one. What Godric had with him was his cloak, a rather black and white religious looking garment. It was actually his own play at thumbing his nose to the concept of such a god. A few red crosses adorn the garment to further push this concept, though someone could easily mistaken this as him being of the faith...

The cloak was buttoned up hiding a chest rig that had five slots of kunai in it. Along with an arsenal of fifty holder enhancements. Also under the robe would be a utility belt with an assortment of pouches and what have yous... 1 slot of Bo Shurikens, 1 slot of darts, 1 slot of flash pouches, and 1 slot of goo pouches. Finally hanging around Godric's neck but still under the cloak was a high tech pair of goggles, 5x zoom, x-ray vision, thermal vision, Night-vision, Lie detection vision, you know the works...

Godric opened his carriage as he looked inside. It needed a bit of cleaning but he could get to that later. As he peered inside someone would notice he had to adjust the rather large cloth wrapped cross on his back. This cross was actually a weapon or rather weapons of sorts. The cloth was lashed to the cross with straps and should a single buckle of the straps be undone it could unwrap the cloth completely from it. But what was inside, well it was a multiple sword holster. Though it wouldn't be a normal one, no, it was one that had been increased by 2 size increments. So this was a Large sized multiple sword holster, with 20 large sized Katanas, six feet long the cross could stand, and then someone would notice something else...

Godric stands eight feet tall, a superficial pair of glasses on, mostly to try and blend into the preacher look, with white silvery hair. But there was something unnatural about him. His skin was like marble, smooth yet dry and cracked. As if of alabaster that had been aged... This might be the first clue as to Godric's vampiric nature...

Within Godric's pocket was a list of his items, should the items be present it read as such:

Cloak Type 3 (Overview) [.5/15 slots] x.5-Slot/1-Goggles(1,000 Ryo) Lie-Detector Lenses(13,000 Ryo) Night-vision Vision(5,000 Ryo) Thermal Vision(5,000 Ryo) X-Ray Vision(9,000 Ryo) Zooming Vision S rank(4,000 Ryo) Utility Belt Type 2 (Overview) [4/15 slots] x1-Slot/15-Shuriken, Bo (Overview)(1,500 Ryo) x1-Slot/15-Darts (Overview)(1,500 Ryo) x1-Slot/15-Pouch: Flash(7,500 Ryo) x1-Slot/15-Pouch: Goo(7,500 Ryo) Chest Rig - Knife Harness Type 2 (Overview) [5/5 slots] x5-slots/10-Kunai (Overview)(5,000 Ryo) Non-Slot consuming items: x50-Holder Enhancement(10,000 Ryo) Weapons: Picture Sword, Longsword (Overview) (4,000 Ryo) Picture Multiple Sword Holster (Overview)/w 20 Sword, Longsword (Overview)/w increasing both Swords and Holsterl by 2 size increments: (248,400 Ryo)

When the boat landed she was out with no rush in mind, in fact it wasn't even on her thought to look for any potential threats when she was heading through the area. There was something in the distance though and it was rather out of place with the terrain. Rugged and arid, the ground crunched beneath her feet while she continued onward, upset she had gone the roundabout way to Rain. The best idea was a straight line and that was good, meant that she would get to walk past whatever that obstruction was in the distance.

The body she dragged bumped along the ground, collecting rocks and dirt, the death rattle having long lef ther prey that she was dragging back to Rain. "Lets see who this is." Humming to herself she passed Draven, a man she had no idea of though he should have been feared by any normal man. His height dwarfed her by several feet, perhaps three or more, it was hard to tell, and there was a large cross on his back. That was enough for her though for the sight of the wrapped cross sent her into a fit of laughter, the body suddenly heavier in its tow. She made it a point to pass by him, his pale skin matching hers, though she was absolutely sure he could hear the disturbance her passing made.

"That cross wont save you." She muttered as she passed by, slowing but not stopping, her sharp green eyes looking off in his direction. "Not from the things that go bump in the night, nor from the true darkness that wanders this world. IT will not save you from the embrace of the darkness and the almighty Lord Jaahin that resides within it." She smiled up at the clouds and thought fondly of her god. "If you would but open your eyes..." She took a look over him, noting his glasses."preacher, then you would know that what I speak is truth." She continued walking, his enormous bulk casting a shadow that still touched hers even in passing.

The path to Rain was upon her and she had so many more bodies to collect.

{Move to Rain after Draven's post}

[Draven]

Godric turned to this voice. Such arrogance, such ire, such dark spirit is this, he pondered... Eyeing the short women with a smile, his lips pressed together. To note a cross would not save him is a true statement, but his cross has the capability of saving him. Was this one here out for a midnight stroll alone in the dark. No she was far to comfortable with it to be that of his preferred prey, no there was a certain kind of kinship that he felt toward her. The darkness was his ally and it seemed she called out to it just the same...

"Be wary for whom you speak of these bumps of the night.." Godric replied with a heavy accent. If the women had any skill in undercommon she might notice the origin of his accent as he spoke in common. But perhaps the women would be distracted by Godric's toothy grin as he said this. For there be fangs, that of a vamipre. But the teeth be hidden as Godric's face softened. Thankfully for this women he was not hungry, nor did he view this one as food. There was too much of that spark of darkness that he was drawn to.

Godric's business done with the carriage, and another goal set, he started following this Hecate but not on purpose or intent. No his direction was similar as he might have caught the wafting smell of a potential stead for his carriage. A particular animal that shares a family with the Rhinos, the mighty Titanothere. This was his quarry and he walked along side Hecate or rather around her as he looked. It was interesting that a trail of this beast went along this women's path. Coincidence? or Fate?

"What is your name child?" Godric asked as he found his way through the dark just as easily as any nocturnal creature. His darkvision spreading up to 35 meters around him in a line of sight fashion. Since he and Hecate were traveling as such, Godric figured he could make a connection with someone. There was loneliness in immortality, perhaps he found someone to share the experience. It was that pull of the darkness that seemed to manipulate his dark heart. This curiosity that was starting to bubble within the core of his minds. After all Hecate was dragging a body, something that seemed less than odd to him...

So it did talk and was giving her a warning? HA! Hecate of the Jashin faith? None commanded her, none but Jashin, and even then she was just a willing follower. Her own parents had joined him in the past, leaving her by herself as a mere child who would be forced to fight and fend against the wild. What was it about him though? the way he carried himself and that accent? So strange and yet unique, her fingers sweaty, itching, wanting to cut him open and see what made him so terribly unique.

During that time she didnt even see that they were in rain, surprisingly so since the rain messed with her hair. The body got heavier, its clothes absorbing so much water. When she reached into her coat and noted the meeting spot for the lady who called herself the Kage, she simply droned out the rest of Godric's talking though there was not much in it what so ever. He did want to know more about her though and she called that a bargaining chip. "Well how about this, Mr." She chirped, twisting the scythe and hanging it over her shoulder the body handing loosely from the blade that was buried to the hilt.

"You tell me yours, and i'll tell you mine." She had a crazed look in her eyes, the bright green iris bright and wild with a deadly intellect. She had been bathed in survival, natural order and selection, her intellect stemming in the work of the blade. The thrill of her kill was still hanging over her, drenching her in its euphoric release.

[Draven]

It seems it was going to take a while to find this beast. Godric simply continued his search. If he could find a smell that was odd, or a track that perhaps fit some sort of large animal he simply followed it. Though he stayed close to his travel companion. The smell of blood was in the air, perhaps not from her but around her. Anyone who attracts blood like that was of interest to him...Thus he passed by a few large bushes and boulders to check about these Titanotheres...

"That is acceptable. I am Godric Hyuuga, Chuunin of Tsuchikage, and the first Vampire..." Godric said straight faced. If Hecate was trying to intimidate him through that crazed look, it didn't work. Godric was rather use to such things, having his own crazy look of his own. With a toothy and twisted smile, and his Hyuuuga white eyes, the veins popped as he requested, "I have given you my name, and a bit extra. I should hope you return the kind gesture. What is your name and why travel so easily in the night. As you hinted towards, there are things that bump in the night..." Again the accent peeked through, showing his exotic history, and perhaps how well traveled he is.

As Godric followed he was wondering what this body was intended for. The smell of fresh blood was enticing, but he could tell it was dead blood. His keen scent could reveal a few things about the blood and where it was at. But why someone other than a vampire needed such morbid things is completely a mystery to him. Perhaps he can learn something from this women, something of dark secrets, something of interest, perhaps he could offer his services in exchange... "If you need help dragging that thing, It would be but a simple task for myself. Perhaps keep it clean if that is what is needed of it." Godric spoke.

"Godric Hyuuga, some unimportant rank from some unimportant city-state." She moaned wearily, the use of village appointed titled were so dreary. "the last name is inciting in a way, rolls so easily off the tongue." With her thin lipped and wide angled smiled, despite her small mouth, she obliged him for a moment, continuing on her way to this meeting point. "Hecate Uchiha, I pledge no loyalties to any man made established order, I serve only Jashin." Smacking loudly with her tongue and adjusted her grip on the scythe, her bounty in tow shuddering as if worked by some morbid marionette. Rain was depressing but Hecate was always in too much of a good mood to be depressed, less the times she felt abandoned by Jashin.

He seemed terribly interested in her, enough to have followed her this far less he had business in Rain. In fact he seemed to have fallen into tandem with her, the human body did this naturally, seeming balance so it corrected its own pace to match that of those around it. his company wasn't dissuaded but she made no excess move to be inviting to him, save for a burning question on her tongue. "Your eyes, Godric." She began, stopping for a half pause to look at him before continuing. "Can they see the world around them, or are they blinded, cursed to only see the past and what once was?" She could feel his stare, but his lack of pupil sent a thrill down her spine that ,made her salivate for knowledge, or lack there of.

While they walked she dared to look for a particular herb that grew on massive trees. The leaves were thick and green, giving off an oily shine that made them look glossy or polished. To the untrained eye it would simply be a pretty leaf but in truth it held so many properties. She cast her eyes around and searched for the tallest trees possible, then at their leaves, looking for a gloss or shine there that was attractive to the eye. So many trees here though...she could be looking for hours.

Hecate 'Jashin' Uchiha found Eucalyptus
Draven did not find Titanothere
No Random Encounter

[Draven]

With glazed back eyes Godric relived some of the past. His rank within the village was indeed very superficial, the village itself very unimportant. Though to him he had an emotional tie to it. It was like his child, he was there upon its conception, there to see it grow, there to cultivate it and defend it during the great wars. It was his city and he its parent, so he laughed at that comment. "The game of rank is something I do out of boredom, though that village is under my protection. Like my personal sanctuary for which I derive strength, solitude, and blood... I see it as my child, as something I care for in life to beat back the crippling void of eternity and immortality.." no real information was given, only his motivations for such petty indulgences of society...

The interest of his lineage was an easy explination, something he didn't mind giving freely, "Hyuuga is my clan name, a birthright I did not find out about myself until a few millennia after I had received my dark gift. The clan itself is soiled with many whom play politics. But it is still kin and there is a power I suck away from it as I learn about mine own eyes and their unique gifts..." But what could they see, well chakra to put it simple. What kind of harm would that be to give such information? "As to what they do, well to divulge such information will have to come at a price. Perhaps tell me about Jashin and I can tell you how the Eyes of a Hyuuga function." Godric requested, as another fair deal was proposed.

Unfortunately Godric had not found his quarry yet. Though instead of continuing, for now he paused his search. He was more interested in Hecate and a question shot through his mind as the word Uchiha finally registered to him, "By the way Uchiha is a rather lovely sir name as well. What of that?"

[💀]

Hecate let out a satisfied sigh as she clipped the leaves from the tree, stashing them away in her robes and continued her searched, using her free hand to push aside saplings and search for more bushes, maybe a tree, the leaves would reflect sunlight easily so she looked for that. For the younger plants she touched and felt leaves, feeling for an oily consistency and maybe even a thick for of leaf that held the mild substance inside. The more she walked the more she searched, and during that time Godric began to reminisce and explain his 'commitment' to this village of his.

"They'll all die, you know?" She said matter-of-factually, shrugging slightly as they continued to walk. "What is the point of growing attached to the meek and meager who will eventually perish?" He had said something that sparked her interest a great deal but she would address it soon, for now she had to get this out. "You said you found out your gift a few millennia after you received yoru gift, though I dont know what that is, but if you have lived this long...surely you know that that village will die eventually." Her voice held no pity and didn't waver in the slightest. She felt no compassion for this Godric, something who had found a way to exceed time and yet he stuck to this plane. "You have the ability to gain so much more to be so much more." A waste it was.


"As for Jashin" She began, speaking the name one would a lover "he is the god of all. He rules over death, the darkness is his arrival and sanctuary where all are safe from the shackles of this life. I am his messenger, his harbinger, I carry his message across the lands and pray that, I too, may be able to complete his will on Earth." She took a deep breath, closing her eyes and letting the wind wash over her, the falling rain a strange coolness on her drenched body. "I am seeking three special bodies, with special chakra, to give to my lord so that I too may grow a step closer to his embrace." already she had said too much, but she loved Jashin more than the air she breathed. she would hold her breath and cut out her own tongue, if it meant it would please him.

But then Draven went on about her sur-name and she offered him a shrug. "Its was my mother and fathers last names. They went on and one about eyes an dpowers but I can hardly remember any of it. They perished and went to Jashin when I was but a child. It was then I understood everything and accepted Jashin into my life." She sniffed slightly, feeling a cold coming on, and smiled in his direction. "I was supposed to join one of your god forsaken villages not long after that, but I was freed. The way of the scythe and blade were all I needed. The gift of chakra is one I need not embrace I feel." She gave him a two for one. "That what you wanted to know? Godric?"She said his name with a little pessimism and a little playful taunt, the body on her scythe jostled slightly.

{Searching for: Eucalyptus 60% chance}

[Draven]

The fact that people die was no shock to him. Hell he has lived through many a kingdoms flourishing then crumbling to dust. He has outlived all of that. "Hahahah, that is part of the play. Does not a dog chase a stick after its owner throws it. Does not the dog perish before the master. Then why have a dog?" In ideology he fully embraced. With immortality comes the burden of loneliness, of not having that release of death. "If you ever find yourself living beyond your years, I recommend you find yourself hobbies. With no direction you will fade into the dust just as anyone else." He smiled, the crushing weight of his immortality recently lifted some time ago. For his hibernation was a mimicry of death, for even if one is immortal, they should find some form of release else become insane or suicidal.

Godric closed his eyes as the wind kissed his face. The night sky was the only thing that truly will outlast him. The moon his only true companion. "Imagine yourself inside of a box locked up for eternity. You have enough rope to hang yourself, though you will not die any other way. How long would it be before you seek such a gift of death..." The note of death being a gift was an idea he fully understood. Perhaps this was a better way to put how he felt about his village, especially how Hecate had revered this Jashin and the machinations of such a force.

"I choose to keep emotional ties only to postpone my own need for the sweet release. I fully choose to die by another hand aside mine own. Loneliness is the thing I fear most, thus I grow a horde of allies either willingly or unwilling." Godric's dark intent is to someday create and guide vampiric children. But other means as well to stave off this void of loneliness, should Hecate be of the kind of person that he prefers, then a simple willing friendship is all that was needed. Glory be damned, Wealth be damned, all human emotions be damned, what matters is the test eternal.

"This notion of more does not exist. I have seen it with mine own eyes, history buries all. The dust is inevitable, you cannot hide from it. Whom ever this Jashin ruler of death is, he is more than that, it is absolute as you say. Even I pale in comparison with the Eternal, thus what I do is simply dance with the perspective of it, to live beside it for longer than anyone else, if not to simply witness it until the end of my days, perhaps until the light is sucked out from the ground we walk upon, to the point where nothing exists. At least I can say that I have lived and deserved death far more than any other living being upon this cursed existence. Eternity for even god's is crippling save for this Jashin...Though my knowledge is limited upon that subject, so I can only trust your word upon his power......" Godric's stare was that of a thousand miles forward as if a trance. He obviously had plenty of time to think about things like this. Plenty of eons to ponder such concepts. He was indeed an old soul...

"I apologize. And I rarely do mind you. My rant is probably for others ears as the concepts are rather, out there. Its part of the insanity that comes with such a life. But onto you, and your life. Yours is indeed a sorrowful one, perhaps we are kindred in a way. Perhaps if your comfortable with an old relic like myself, I would like to follow you upon your journey into this faith. But only to be an observer. I promise I wont pry too much, and let secrets be secrets. Don't feel I am asking you to give any information that your not meant to. I simply wish to perhaps, be your friend..." Another concept, but this one was almost foreign to Godric. It has been so looooong since has had one. Even if she is a mortal, her life and how she holds herself tugged straight at his emotions. No strings attached this time, for the last was a failure and ended in ruin.

As Godric went along with Hecate he continued his search for the beast that he needed. The Titanothere, a steed with enough power to pull his carriage. It was something he can sniff out. His nose caught a scent or two. A great many of critters were crawling around. As he passed a potential spot, his eyes would pass as well. If there was a beast there, he took a second glance. This was only to check to see if it was the beast in question. This elusive Rhino'esk creature that he seeks.

Eucalyptus Found.
No Titanothere.

[💀]

"For the love of Jashin..." Hecate mumbled as she gathered more leaves, listening to Godric prattle. He was old she got that, but there were no concepts that were too 'out there' anymore. Not in this world, where fire came out of mouths and lightning could be called from the skies themselves. He had also gone on so long he seemed to have forgotten his end of the deal, and so Hecate let him talk, and talk, not one for confiding in another person, so much as it was her way of just keeping him around without the intent of killing. Yet. He was of special blood, he had hinted that about his 'gift'.

While he talked she looked for more trees, the body over her shoulder beginning to grow tiresome on her shoulder with its weight. She swapped shoulders and pushed aside more small saplings, looking for young trees of the Eucalyptus or at least some hint that most existed around these parts. The more he talked the more she searched, making use of his talking as white noise to keep the boredom of travel from sapping her strength and muse for the idea of her quest. She stopped at one particularly tall tree and used her rapier to cut down a branch, searching it for signs of the leaves.

"Godric..." She started when he finished, not addressing his want at friendship. "You have told me about everything under the sun except your eyes. I thought we had a deal?" She smirked, giggling slightly to herself. What an odd man.

[Searching for Eucalyptus 60%]

[Draven]

Hecate was sharp, perhaps Godric was testing this women, but she was perceptive none the less. There were many things Godric was looking for should he find trust in her. Perception such as this was one of them. A soft smile cracked his unnatural skin upon his cheeks, "You are right..." Thus his white eyes gazed upon Hecate, "I can see chakra in various forms. The lines and process of how chakra takes its course within your body, the residue for which you leave upon your footsteps, and the ability to see beyond solid objects. As well as other gifts that I have yet to unlock so unfortunately I don't even know the full extent of their wonder." Godric said giving the information that was promised.

The choice of wording that Hecate had used had so much irony to Godric. It hit him just as he finished and he had a to laugh out loud, "Ahahahaha" Under the sun indeed. He hasn't seen the sun since before most nations were even born. "Well let us have some trust building eh?" he proposed... The Titanothere was still illuding him, he was almost certain that a strong smell had been coming around the next corner, and was disheartened to so none was there. It could have been nice to have a vassal to demonstrate his manipulation gifts, 'Now I give you information freely. The type of friendship that I wish is not one of trickery. I can force such things upon people, but the quality is lacking. You see..." And now he becomes vulnerable, the first step in trust..

The light of the moon gleamed of his face as Godric searched the night sky. He still could catch a good scent here or there, a trail of some animal musk. The sound of nocturnal nature around them. His eyes would be moving from place to place, his chakra swirling in anticipation. This Titanothere was indeed a tricky beast to find. But his eyes are keen, senses sharp. His ambition compelled him to keep these perceptions high as he continued his search.

"The sunlight burns my skin. And I don't mean a simple sunburn as you would expect from being to pale. I mean I burst into flames no matter how many layers of clothing I wear." Become vulnerable in the eyes of another. The olive branch to test ones willingness to care to keep a secret or perhaps to keep a promise. And all the in between of the back and forth from these things breaking and building back up. What he was looking for was a maluable friendship, a fragile one, the absolute friendship that he can produce was flawed. It was too all consuming. They were only but slaves whom went to far, "And now should you take my offer of friendship, you're going to have to surrender something of equal importance. Something important to you. Weather its information or an action. If you want I can bewitch your mind and promise to release right after. Or you can tell me something you'd never tell anyone else. Whatever it is, if it is not something that makes you vulnerable, then trust simply will not build correctly..." friendship was foreign to him but it was not lost. Some of his strongest memories were of those he had trusted and could call friend. It was the one thing that truly cut down the feeling of the void, it could fill an infinite space of darkness. He paused as the reflection of the moon danced within his white eyes.

no encounter...

The duo of vampyre and Jashin would be left to their own devices as nothing of a peculiar air wafted in their general direction. All would be safe for the two--for now..

"Flames you say? That sounds like quite a painful experience, but hey we all have our weakness, no?" She didn't like the concept of trust outside of the faith, it left loose ends and open channels for the more nefarious kind to slip in. But his subtle hints of hostile takeover and manipulations to ferret out some type of deep secret did not sit well with her. Dragging the body had made her tired, and an answer shouldnt be that hard to come up with.

While she pondered on this thought she searched harder for the Eucalyptus tree, somewhat annoyed by the elusive nature of such a common tree. The tall tree seemed to be something entirely common and useless, though that just meant she should look for the smaller sprouts. A stray hand swept aside shrubbery and bush, feeling leaves as she pondered just entirely dismissing Godric's attempt at learning more about her. She grabbed several sprouts by the base and pulled fiercely, checking them for any sign of being what she looked for.

"I am incapable of feeling any sort of attraction, to anyone, on an intimate level." he said it with a kind of quietness that came with deeper reflection. "I've never loved anyone other than my parents, but that was different. I cant stand anything that breathes and continues to deny themselves the greater happiness of Jashin's love. No matter what I do...I know that I will remain alone until Jashin comes for me himself." She was terrified of being abandoned by her god, having lost her parents to him he was like her driving force. In some way without knowing she had sought Jashin and tried learning his ways, as a coping mechanism, so that maybe by accepting him into her life she would see her parents again, she wouldn't be alone anymore.

Godric was also finding it rather difficult to find his game. Though as Hecate searched for her plant, Godric followed looking for any indication of his beast. His eyes were enough to spot it should they fall upon one. He just needed to keep swiveling his head should they come across one. A cautious approach was needed so it was vital that he kept his attention to this. There were a few potential areas that might have had this beast that he particularly investigated with his eyes. Perhaps it would be there.

But onto other matters. Hecate's weakness was abandonment and a lack of ability to love anyone else besides Jashin. That could pose a problem should he wish to form a strong bond. You see what he wanted was someone he could trust to watch his back, without resorting to his strong manipulative ways. Unfortunetly and unkowningly Godrics habits of this had shown itself. But truth shall set him free as he was trying his best not to bear his silver tounge, "You are not incapable, I assure you. This feeling is one I have forced onto many before. My aspiration is to not do this, but it becomes an addiction at times." with that a pheromone was released.

-Was of the soothing nature. If Hecate was close enough she might feel a feeling of helpfulness. It wasn't anything intense such as love, but Godric was doing this to simply demonstrate. "The feeling that you perhaps are feeling now is the type of manipulation I am capable of. It is a very very mild form of it, and I can extend it to utter love and devotion should I choose." Godric looked to Hecate to see if it was working. There should be some sort of interest in her toward him if it was. Or some sort of indication. He smiled genuinely to show he means no arm. A flawless face with no wrinkles, save for the cracks upon his alabaster skin.

Godric might expect some resistance to this, perhaps Hecate might get a little offended, but he simply waited out for about a minute before he started talking again. "This version though only lasts a little under a minute so do not fret. The effects should have subsided by now. My point is I could have had you under my spell the moment we met. So please understand what I am asking you. Trust and care both ways is the only thing I seek, nothing more nothing less. I need someone whom can watch my back without having to resort to turning them into a slave." Thus his truth and his motivation set upon the proverbial table. His need for companionship extends further than just someone to talk to. He had future plans as the winds of the world were ever changing.
