"I was never very good at making friends. It is not encouraged among my people to make friends with others."

"In a way, yes. I did not lose my emotions as quickly as other males of my kind did. But in general it is not good for our males to befriend one another...it only makes it harder when you must hunt a friend."

I am afraid that I did. With all the gifts and powers my people have, there is a curse. All males have it, and it is the urge to use their powers for their own gain: to kill and feel the high of adrenaline after so many bland years of feeling nothing. If a male chooses to travel down that path, he looses his soul and becomes the undead and will continue to prey upon mortals and immortals for all of time, unless he his hunted and sent to the next life.

Phoenix felt the shame well up inside of him and he turned from her. I do not have the skills to be a hunter...I am instead just a useless craftsman...

"I am a metalsmith, and a jewelcrafter of sorts. Though my metalsmithing skills are much more developed."

"I can easily manipulate the metal, weave into it safeguards or compel someone to find comfort easier. Simple things of that nature."

"With..metal?" she did not know how metal could be comfortable. It was so cold and unyielding...

Phoenix nodded, "Yes. I am currently working on a bed frame design that will inspire feelings of safety as well as comfort. I plan to inscribe it with runes for added protection."
