Doubt did not exist in Gabriel’s world. He knew that this was going to be a terrible war, and that it was going to cost them. His purpose was to see Haku Soul erased from the earth, and if he had to take the whole of Dahlia de Mai with him, so be it. Traps and weapons were outside of his realm of knowledge, and for each mention of them he focused his attention on his cousin. Anselm would be the one to go to on those matters. So, as Cassius spoke, the Aquila listened—but he did not comprehend fully, and redirected his attention on his cousin. “Anselm would be the person to talk to,” he said, looking to the golden wolf for confirmation.
“Do what needs done,” he reaffirmed, looking over the group. “And don’t forget that we’re fighting a madman.” Those who had not seen Haku before would now experience the full extent of what was coming. “You have your orders,” Gabriel concluded, dismissing the group with jerk of the head. He remained seated, watching them leave, and knowing that what lay before them was far more dire then even he imagined.
