Deimos Belial, undeterred by Deimos’ quiet command, was more than eager to be bribed by Cordelia’s jerky. With a contented chirp and snap of his jaws, he’d snagged the meat in between his teeth with great relish, enacting a few aerial spins in his excitement, then meandered away to land in the sand. And even better, leave them alone to cut apart the meat and figure out exactly how to best utilize the jewel. Using his hunting knife, the Sword withdrew the prize from the animal, gazing upward at it as it shimmered in the sun. Contemplating, musing, and speculating, he perused through his mind over the length of the rumors. “Maybe around your neck?” Holding it sounded too easy, and there was always the potential to drop the ornament, leaving one possibly stranded. “Give me a moment,” and his incantations wove around the adornment, casting along in a simplistic design, ivory, like the snow, like the mountains, and likely tight enough to be worn around, touching over a nape, without instilling choking measures. Passing it over when he was through, his head tilted vaguely, waiting for her to place it on. “I have been asked to re-establish the Monster Hunter’s Guild,” by way of getting right to the point, as he so often did. No sense in meandering along the path. “And for that, I have to stay in Torchline.” His eyes glanced at her then, brow arching. “For now, anyway.” Since they all knew what the end goal was – and it hadn’t been the sand or the beaches. “You are more than welcome to do the same.” It just meant they were leaving behind another figment, another point, in this bizarre journey back towards summits. Out of sight and out of mind Make everything alright So let the sky and sea collide Just not in our lifetime |
Training pulse of a steady beat

Cordelia Cordelia watched silently as Deimos took the gem once more, focusing his magic on it to create what he thought suitable for her, taking his time to get it right. Her lips twitched into a smile at the choker he created. It was simple in design, but that didn't take away from the beauty of it. The way the ivory stood out against the gem and her tanned skin when she took it in her grasp. Carefully affixing it around her throat, Cordelia paused, brows knitting together at the news.
"Where? Surely not Halo." They couldn't get back in. Not all of them, at least. So where? Cordelia asked, head cocking to the side, waiting for him to enlighten her. Something she doesn't have to wait for very long. Torchline. It wasn't Halo. Not even close. Still, it would have to do. She can't help the way her expression fell as she thought back to the home they would be leaving all over again. She knew it wasn't meant to be permanent, but it had been theirs. Now they were displaced all over again. "You know I won't stay there without you, Deimos." And nothing hurts anymore, I feel kinda free We're still the kids we used to be the Resurrected Sword

Cordelia Cordelia felt his emotions flicker along the bond, growing weaker as his walls grew stronger, shutting her out as he prepared for her to tell him no. She doesn't. How could she? Deimos was her family now. Noah told her that staying with him was her best option. She knew it in her bones that leaving either of them was wrong. How could she even consider it? The Attuned felt a soft smile curling on her lips, expression melting into something far more vulnerable at his muttered 'oh', stepping forward to wrap her arms around his middle in a tight squeeze. She dropped her cheek against his chest, lingering there as she let out a long breath, "You know, for being so smart, you really are a dummy sometimes." She muttered quietly, not letting go for sometime as he gave her an apology, making a promise that they could go back.
"I know you are and I know we can. It's silly being upset, isn't it? I hadn't meant to think of it as home, but it was hard not to." When they'd chosen to settle there together two seasons ago after leaving their home, Cordelia knew it was going to be temporary, but they'd made it home. Even when Noah had to leave, he always came back there, making it the only place that was somewhat constant in their lives as they existed now. And nothing hurts anymore, I feel kinda free We're still the kids we used to be the Resurrected Sword
