tearing off the mask of man

500+ Eeee I loved reading your reply! <33 ^_^

Haku generally despised those pathetic creatures that ran off without warning. Grayson, Windseeker, there had been quite many since he had joined Dahlia de Mai. When someone dared to come back despite their wasted pride, this could soothe the beast with the thorn. Of course it helped that he always had liked her. She had never judged him (not openly, at least) for what he was, and more than anything he was grateful for that. The black female’s smile lifted some weight off his shoulders. He tossed away the thoughts of a silly dead child and sat down when she made it apparent that she would tell him her story without any dillydallying. His ears perked softly forwards, and he could only offer his full attention to what the black female was about to say. Little did he know that her tale was filled with sorrow.

When she introduced her family line, he kept his smile up. As a child he had peeked around looking at northern gods, and there had been some Fenris wolf there that he had quite enjoyed reading about. It was mostly lost to him now, but he could still remember the name. If her words were true, he pitied himself for not being related to her. Not that he ever had cared of such things, but his own family line was a sad joke. When she paused for a moment, he only gave her an encouraging nod, requesting her to go on. The Stormbringers was a tough family, and he would already have known this if he had known the Stormbringers that his mother had met through her years. When the woman went on, the glamorous introduction was over, and he was starting to realize that she had left Dahlia to go to war for her family’s sake.

As the female spoke, the Lilium’s smile disappeared and his face turned rather blank as he listened to her finish off. He wished he could feel true compassion, because right now he ached to be able to soothe her wounded soul. Wars were ugly, and that was why he loved them. He did not celebrate her loss, rather the opposite. He felt his hackles slightly rising and discovered to his own surprise that he felt slightly angry. ”Why did you not tell us? We could have helped you.” He bluntly stated, but a moment after he realized that it would of course have been a bit silly, with Inferni conflict still fresh and all. Nevertheless, Haku had sworn himself to this pack, and that promise had made its home in his heart. He would defend every member of Dahlia from harm as best he could. Even Coli and Lubomir would be defended.

He was sorry for her loss, as much he was able to anyways. He would not say that he was sorry for her loss, because that was a too often used phrase in such cases. His reaction to her story should be proof enough that he did not like what she had gone through. ” If anything should happen again, you say.. if so, then do not be afraid to ask for assistance.” He could say nothing of what Dahlia would do, but if she asked, he would go with her and feed from dead Dawnrunner corpses.
