Leon listened to everything Aello had to say. If her captor had come by, but didn't open the door, it would've sounded like Aello was slowly going insane, naming who was out to get her. But Leon knew his sister was already insane. He knew of the dagger she carried, but not that it had appeared to her since being captured. He knew everything about her. But did he share the same feelings as her? He was proud though to hear that Aello wished to serve Dira with the destruction of the Nuit. Gods and goddesses throughly enjoyed it when mortals vowed to follow them, especially with such a gift to give her. But Dira would never learn about this devoted follower unless she was free. And Leon probably would never stop hearing it if he failed saving his friends. When Aello finally was calm, Leon spoke to her again. You are held captive by a powerful ghost who goes by the name Vulpin. Before Vulpin took control, he was a captive along with other ghosts to a high ranking member of the Black Sun, who was fond of collecting ghosts, and turning them to dust. Well, the acolyte got bored, and let Vulpin free for fun, and perished. So Vulpin lived here, leaving the other ghosts in dust form. But I turned them against Vulpin, telling them about how you could save them. Leon paused to see Aello's reaction. She had never had a brother alive to be angry with, but this might be her reaction. Maybe fright or disappointment even. But Leon wanted to know how she felt, whatever it was. It might be the difference between a success or failure. The ghosts began to torment him, asking for the one named Aello, until he finally sought you out. Not the way I hoped he would, but a success in that phase none the less. Now he wants you to sate the voices however you can. And if you can't stop them, he'll just kill you. Leon paused, letting that sink in. If Aello didn't think this would end in death, she did now. But she also learned that there was hope of living. All she had to do was complete what the voices wished them to do. But what was it. They want you to destroy Vulpin. |
