NATE
“I don’t owe my existence to any of the old gods Seren.” Nate sighs, and pushes his hair back out his face, straightening up again and looking towards the sky. “I exist because two sad fucks made a mistake they couldn’t take back, and I’m here because of the Voice.” Two can play at the semantics game, if that’s really what they’ve been reduced to. If she’s so unwilling to listen to his points.
A deep sigh leaves him, Nate biting his tongue until he can really taste fluid. His brows furrow agin as he forces himself to listen, lips pursing in a pinched, pitying expression. She doesn’t understand, and there’s no way he would possibly explain it to her. No words he can say that would really communicate the desperation, the terror of existing in a place so firmly defined by things outside of his control.
“You can say anything you want Seren. You can even believe it. But,” Nate’s tongue dips out to wet his lips, “siding with the Old Gods is a choice that speaks for itself.” He spits a shining gob of spit onto the ground, then points a stern finger towards her. “Like it or not, you are on the side of killing me. The side that decided to make two races suffer for the sake of pride.”
