Deimos
He wasn’t left to his own devices for long, and he glanced upwards from his brooding convictions at the table to Flora, granting a nod and tilt of his head in acknowledgment. “Not unscathed, but yes. I think we need to count the successes when we can.” Especially now – though he made no mention or inquiry of how Torchline had fared. Seren’s death was enough of an indication – and along with several assaults in various regions, and with Halo’s destroyed springs, the ominous notes were clear.
Belial lurked outside, otherwise he likely would’ve tried to join the dragon along the window, and the Sword watched, somewhat with bemusement, as the other companion seemed intent on glossing over any ability to peer within. “No, thank you.” He wanted a clear mind for any upcoming discussions.
Hadama’s appearance came soon after, and he gave another nod of solemnity. “They are well.” He wouldn’t have been here otherwise. Evie could hold the fortifications and region while he was gone – her particular brand of ferocity would keep the masses together until he returned. “And thank you again for your help at the Citadel.” And perhaps the situation with the titan had given some strong indications of things, and plots, to come.
With Sunjata arriving, and having already put forth a discourse between the pair of them, he fought the urge to tap his fingers on the table, and instead, leaned back, steeling a breath. “I think we all need to discuss next steps, given how things are progressing.” Glancing between the lot of them, as everyone settled and sat, his jaw clenched. “Sunjata and I have already talked about going to Starfall. We need to retrieve void crystals for our regions anyway.” Pausing, and steeling another breath, he persisted. “There have been ideas floating around about doing so in teams of volunteers.” Perhaps they might have names or further notions. “And we would need more flowers.” In the simplest of terms. Flora had been the most successful of their lot, as far he knew, and they might all to eventually take her prior route in yielding to the Big Gods.
His eyes flicked briefly to the Flood, who had some more damning information to share, and then back to the group as a whole, leaving it wide open for any semblances to follow.

what does it mean to look upon a ruin
we are boneless. we are boiling hot blood.
