- Faccius remained still, his expression seemingly idle and uninterested. But there was a strange look in his eye, which gave him a very distinctively murderous look. He didn't stare straight at the stranger, but seemed to glare right past him, at something far away or non-existent. His pale pupils were a ghastly white in the sunlight, and many could have mistaken him for a banshee. It was then that a different sound attracted his attention. Light steps echoed further away from them. His elven ears perked back, as he craned his head to listen. He dropped his guard, concentrating on the source of noise.
"Have you heard?" A femenine voice, raspy, middle-aged. "The stunning Queen Mayu of Togath is currently in Ganias, with the King of Pathur. By the looks of it, they're getting married!"
"It must be because of all of these rumors about Saur starting a war... We can't be sure, but they must be uniting, don't you think?"
"Pfft, it's love! They make a beautiful couple! Why--"
By then, Faccius has stopped listening. He had gotten enough information to confirm his plans and desires. He turned back to the stranger, and realized with disappointment that there was no time for a battle. He raised his arms and with the power of air magic, caused winds to soar around them, lifting sand and causing quite a sandstorm. They could leave unnoticed.
"Let's go." He said in a quiet murmur to Vesna, as he brushed past her and Linus, leading them away from the tavern, the townsfolk, and the strange, burly man. One day they'd meet again, he was sure. For now, there were other pressing matters.
"You have missed much." Faccius said, as the sandstorm came to an end behind them and all was now silent. His voice was low and even, but had a tone of displeasure. He did not like talking. "Kai Yung is planning a war. I don't understand his motives, but he wishes to conquer... everything." He said the last word with a pang of disgust.
"I don't dabble in politics and I do not care for the fate of our world. But..." His steps came to a stop, as he drew his arms behinds his back, stretching his neck. He opened his eyes, as they were usually closed, for he could not see, and a strangely determined expression gleamed under his brows. "I must kill Kai. He is in the way of me being most powerful. His existence is an insult to my pride."
For a moment, Faccius paused, as if hesitating to speak. "There are some things we know, Vesna. Some people know what they will achieve, others what they will never achieve. When I met Kai, I knew he would be a threat. I should have..."
He sighed, taking in a deep breath. "...killed him when I had the chance. But I failed. Now he is too powerful to defeat alone."
Most of what Faccius was saying were personal opinions and desires. His only wish was to kill Kai because he was more powerful. But Faccius, a truly thick-headed elf, felt it was fate.
"I must go to this... Mayu, and join her cause against Kai. Then I will meet him in battle once again." He gazed in the direction of Vesna and Linus. "We will leave immediately. You... may go if you wish. But you are now... ehm... powerful enough to join me or travel alone. I am giving you a decision."
With this... strangely long monologue for someone generally as silent as Faccius, the elf cleared his throat and closed his eyes, turning away from the witch and her assistant. He would await her decision, and if they refused to go, he would teleport them to Ganias.
