16th Spring 513AV The day was early, the sun hovered low in the eastern sky, a subtle line of clouds forming over the sky and making the morning feel darker and colder than it already was. Xi headed out into the streets of nyka, bow and arrows with him and the steel on his fists gleaming in the odd rays of the sun that crested over the cloud line. Xi's headed towards the southern quarter looking mostly for something to do, he had a job but he didn't have to go until later and he needed something to try and pass the time. And to try and help him forget the transgressions of ana...His hands clenched at her. Show could she be so heartless ? Xi felt his shoulders slump...She should have known better than most. Xi crossed the bridge into the southern section looking down over to see the aperture below, and still a feel of him being pulled into it dragged out of him, His mind screaming at him to stay away. Xi just shook his head and carried on. Trailing into the southern quarter Xi watched around for something unusual. Something out of the ordinary...However in a city he himself was new in what exactly was out of the ordinary? Stepping through the crowds of the southern quarter something caught his eye as he flicked his gaze across...a fur cloak...What the heck was a fur cloak doing in a city like this ? The land of bright colours for all but the monks a fur cloak was strange... Xi began to tail it, not sure of whether he should approach or not. But every time he reached the corner where the cloak had vanished he saw only the end of it keep disappearing around the next corner...Was whoever was in it running from him ? Well he did look like an overtly large monk with a bow an arrow so they were probably zigzagging to tray and make sure he couldn't fire a shot at them with his arrows. Now though Xi was massively curious and began to take off into a run, using his well conditioned body to run, he couldn't run for a long while but he could use that little bit of extra speed to close the gap between them. Xi took off into a sprint this time and caught more of the figure as he rounded the corner it was small. Well small by his massive stature. Xi followed it and then It vanished. Xi looked around trying to see where it had gone...But something about him was telling him it was still near by. "Come out...I know your there. Why are you running from me?" Xi's voice as usual was low nad slow however it was in a authoritative tone. |
