Bastion knew that he was above all those that were gathered amongst the crowd and his favor within the leadership showed. He had been given exactly what it was that he had wanted. He had been allowed near the sacrifice while everyone else remained at bay. Even the urging of him to step away was the slightest and subtlest of movements that there wasn't a reason for the crowd to notice it. Instead it was more like Bastion had claimed his prize and returned to the front lines.

While everyone else had the paste to consume Bastion delighted himself with the raw and bloody flesh of another canine. Such a thing really wasn't that strange. It was his specially prepared dish at each of the Last Suppers, one meant only for him while the rest ate the cooked meat. Bastion sat himself on the ground in order to eat the tongue. He had put distance between himself and the sacrifice but continued to make it known that he was better than everyone else because he didn't sit among the crowd either. No, he had made his own row that as separate from everyone.

He listened to Eris give her speech. He wasn't really thrilled with all that blood going to waste but at least he had managed to get some for himself. While he wouldn't have the full amount from the sacrifice he had at least gotten enough for himself that he could allow for Eris to do what she would with the rest. After all this was a show for Salsola and not a kill for him to do whatever he wanted to do with. And who knows, maybe after Eris was done with the body then he might be able to have the meat from that as well. He would just have to wait and see though.
