Abasi
Abasi did not care for Caido much at all, but more than anything he hated the town of Sanctuary. The people there seemed too busy for him, something he was not used to at all. Back at his home, his position in the Pharoah's court had awarded him with a decent amount of respect; he was used to bowed heads and offerings, not being ignored in the middle of the street.So he had come to the fields to be alone, maybe try and make his own home out there. Not that he knew anything about home-making...but how hard could it be? Slaves built things, and well, he was surely smarter than that. Even with the strange illness eating away at his energy.
Walking with his head down and his arms hugging himself, his first realisation that anything other than grass was on the fields was the flash of light - Abasi looked up just in time to see the Hydra appeared, immediately going to hide behind a wall; if he had been more conscious of what he was doing in the moment he would have been embarrassed of his cowardice, but sheer instinct had kicked in.
He watched the beast bite away at...some kind of vegetable, he thought, and the man who controlled it sag down. Such displays were the kinds of things he could only dream of accomplishing, and his fear quickly gave way to a curiousity and jealousy that drove him to climb up over the wall and approach, stepping carefully around smashed gourds. "How do you summon this creature? Are you in contact with the Gods of this place?" He asked in his usual clipped tone, forgetting an introduction in the midst of his interest.
For all of the light that I shut out
For all of the bruises I've caused and the tears
