"Ah yes indeed," the elder horsemen tapped his chin thoughtfully, "what exactly is it about Distortion that makes it so effective. Well, if I had to summarize I would say of course, the nature of what it is. We have Fear, and Joy, and then Insanity, and these are all created from emotions. So, applying the same logic, what exactly do you think Distortion is?"
It was probably something pretty big if he was being as ambiguous as he was about the topic. Yet considering the nature of his warning regarding Distortion, he had all rights to be reserved.
Smiling, the Horsemen of Death opened his mouth to reply to Thera, "If your lady would kindly accept me as your escort I would be more than happy to-"
-SCRAPE-
- Both he and Medea suddenly turned to stare at Charon, who had stood right up, still holding all the stuff in his arms, chair pushing back behind him. The attendant of Death, wearing a surprisingly blank expression, sat back down and pretended that that didn't just happen.
-"... visit if I have the time." Death amended. Satisfied, Charon seemed to relax just a bit, though he was watching you Thera, he was watching you.

Nirva perched cautiously in the background of the whole meeting, she had done little in her own way to help with the harvesting of fear, her job wasn't to collect, it was to kill with purpose, to defend and destroy the enemy. Humans weren't enemy, they where mindless cattle that some sought to slaughter for Fear.
Still she had poked about the town and camps and very rarely found hunters worth, well, hunting. So she stayed near the grounds watching and waiting thankful to have some resemblance of a home... for now. Though talk of distortion caused her wings to ruffle curiously.
"M'lord, distortion, it is a trait held only by us and those who allied with us earlier. What of the rest of Halloween that is tainted by Insanity? Are they too able to use Distortion to cure themselves?"

Wherever Ying went, it was safe to say that Jing was not far behind, the horseboil did not sleep in this time as he weaved his way through the mob of lost clan members, robe fluttering and making the boil clinch the cloth repeatedly until he got to his sisters sitting place and made his own place there.
There was nothing much to say as he listened intently, calmly as the newly appointed leader began to hash out the way he wanted to run things, that was different than Medea. Just the memories of her plans, the schemes that did nothing but fuel her own whims of revenge and nothing for their survival made his mouth go sour. There was never a choice for speaking out against it, just blind obedience because the head priestess was not a being to be trifled with. Jing would not put it against her to lash out at defiance, whether it be to the turncoat or a relative to them.
Ying's safety trumped his own sense of will.
there was still the feeling of apprehension in his stomach, with the lead Death's plans, there was a chance that he could be a wiser leader than the one before, on the other hand, he could be even more volatile with his actions. The even toned rumble of the being that answered their questions left him feeling less on edge.
The seed of doubt was still in his chest. Just who was this Charon?
"And if we do get to return to our former homelands, just what then? How exactly do we rebuild in accordance to our new unity? Is the land even salvageable?" If it was one thing the Zheng siblings wanted, it was their true home back.

Hands laced together with her sister, Lifen watched the three in front of her with a sober look, giving everything a look over. Seeing Medea sitting next to Death in a worried, pensive way made her wonder what was possibly coming to be - could it have been connected to . . . the battle with the hunters on the watch? Thinking about that was like thinking about taking poison and then stabbing her hands.
Neither of them were terribly appealing.
Clearing her throat a little, she raised her spare hand, dagger in hand, she turned to give both Mengyao and Shikoba a soft look, (one maybe a little longer than the other), she thought for a moment. Turning back to Death, she went along with asking her question, quiet voice travelling over the others.
"For those of us who were given these, must we offer our shards up to you also, Sir?"
It was a honest question.

Shaheen had listened with rapt attention, mulling over what Death had to say and combining it with what Shikoba had already told her of previous events. She had slipped her way in beside him, silent and focused, her gaze never flickering away from those three figures in the center of this small crater of dirt.
When it was all said and done and the question period started, Shaheen kept her silence, then and only then flicking her eyes up towards Shik. She gave tall, dark and stoic a sharp nudge with her elbow, trying to grab his attention to give him a look, one that would tell him all of the things she wanted to say out loud and yet couldn't. Didn't he care about any of this new information? About the state of their previous homes and the fact that Death wanted them to give up their distortion shards? Shik might have been stuck on thoughts about killing humans but Shaheen had moved past that to the bigger picture. If they gave up their shards, what did that mean for Shik's pointy new toy that had worked wonders on Shaheen's complexion?
She didn't like this. Not one tiny, little bit. What Shik had done to her with that dagger had been horrible, and she still felt the phantom remnants of pain that made her fingers twitch, curling and resting on the area that had been stabbed, but it was all she currently had. What would they do if she got so close to the breaking point once again?
Yes, she told all of this to Shik with her eyes, and she damn well expected him to get it all.
