Wren settled in a cross-legged position, facing him. The bird hopped down onto her knee where she stroked it absentmindedly.
-
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!

(And she strikes again)

"You already know that magic exists in the dimension in vast quantitys, its what gives this land life. However, this magic can becone corrupted, and when it does it is my jod to eradicate it before the corruption can spread" he explained, looking sad. "Unfortunately, this requires killing everything that has been touched by the corruption, be it plants, animals, or mortals. At first, i refused to do so. I didnt want to hurt anyone, and Vaitusi payed the price. He tried so hard to save his creations, his children, while i was being selfish and refused to do my job. I didnt realise what was happening untill it was to late. The longer Vaitusi spent around the corruption, the more it infected him, untill he became corrupted as well." He said
-
"But it wasn't your fault!" she exclaimed. "You didn't want to hurt anybody!"
-
He shook his head "if i had just done my damn job from the start Vaitusi never would have been corupted and driven insane. He started creating monstrus creatures, which were capable of killing gods. By then i realised that i didnt have any choice but to do my job, and eventually i realised that i would have to kill my best friend." He said, his voice growing softer as he ran his fingers over the tear trail markings on his face, stairing at his lap. "I fell to keep the others safe. Not that they know that, of course. But thats fine. Its better for them to not know what happened to Vaitusi."

"I'm so sorry," Wren said softly, and the bird hopped into Sgrios' lap and chirped.
-
"You have nothing to appologize for" he said gently as he stared at the bird. After a moment he lifted a hand and gently pet it
-
"I guess that makes two of us then, huh?" she said weakly, running her fingers through her short hair involuntarily.
-
He lifted hos head to look at her, making a questioning noise
-
She sighed before speaking, and ran her hand through her hair again.
"There was someone like you that I knew a long time ago. Her name was...Venom," she said, wincing as she said the name. -
Sgrios tilted his head at her
-
"She was injured and needed help. So I helped her, naturally, but I was too pushy back then. She got angry at me and ran away, joined the bad crowd. She did terrible things, things I don't even want to mention, and nobody could stop her. I went to duel with her, and she almost had me but..," Wren said, her eyes filling with tears. "She seemed to come to her senses. Nobody else noticed and one person...well, they...they killed her."
Wren began wiping tears off of her face with her sleeve. "Maybe she could've changed. I'll never know. It's my fault she ran away and I could have stopped it all from happening. But I didn't." -
Sgrios hesitated for a moment before he scooted closer to her and hugged her, his tail curling around her as his ears folded down and he set his head on hers
-
Wren wrapped her arms around his small form, holding him close. She felt her tears fade away slowly.
