look on my works, ye mighty, and depair
Dawn breaks.
The gauntlet has been thrown.
And Shaju approaches, as he has done twice so far in his life, to face his Trial. To win at all costs. Does he bring a gun to this knife fight, this time? No.
He brings something worse.
His time with Nate in the Fingers has been productive to say the least. When the tide isn't drowning the Ascended (to some extent, given his interesting ability to not drown) and the sun isn't burning him, Shaju has been busy. Indeed, when the boy sees his lover, he might look a little different to how they left each other last.
Injuries, yes. In abundance. Let your imagination flesh that out. Or better yet - letNate detail it for you.
No, it's the leather muzzle affixed over the Ascended's nose and mouth that might be the most marked change - and the fact that he's being half dragged, half carried by two burly gentlemen under Shaju's employ.
Stepping forward, leaving Nate to be the distraction he's meant to be, he barely gives the boy or his husband a glance. He merely slips the ring from his finger and tosses it over his shoulder, into the sea, and slips the knife from his belt.
Let it begin.
Shaju has abandoned his disguise, and has thrown his ring into the sea.

Grey Rock Ring | A ring inlaid with a plain, grey pebble. When worn, you become innocuous and forgettable to others.
