Considering this, Remi can only shrug and nod. Maea wasn't wrong of course, but just now the thought of it only highlighted the worst parts of what it meant to be ascended in that way: he'd been made into a killer and Ronin had been made into a star-clad toy for Safrin to play with.
Smiling widely, the Bastion nods. "I can work with that. At least now we will be about the same size." As a manticore Remi had been large. Large as a small vehicle, not that the measurement helped in most situations, but it did put him heads and tails about his feline companions. As a pixiu, he possessed no superior size nor a poisonous tail. He'd lost the rows of shark-like teeth in his mouth as well, not that he really minded.
With a nod to Maea, Remi settled himself into the body of his newest shift. Stretching out his wings before folding them against his golden flanks, the pixiu gave a flick of his tail before tilting his head into the wind to scent the breeze. It was halted somewhat by the hedge-maze itself, but that didn't mean there weren't scraps of information for those who knew how to look. With a low rumble, Remi prowled forward into the darkness.
