Those That Carry the Wind and Water (Leoric and Azza)

[Leoric]

It had been some time since Leo had entered his meditative stance. He wasn’t sure how long had actually passed but it seemed like the new young comer and Kylie were enjoying a decent conversation. Or he assumed decent, cause voices were not getting raised and Kylie would prob call out to him if anything serious was happening.

His thoughts began to drift back to his past, and what he had done long ago, when he worked for the man known as Lye. Leoric had killed many people, injured or maimed others, psychologically traumatized as many people as he needed just to get his job done. It wasn’t until he got lost in salvar, stuck in a cave with a hot spring, that he began to think upon himself and figured out what he really wanted or what he really needed to be happy.

Finding Kylie was either a stroke of luck, or whatever fate had planned for him. Leoric wasn’t sure if he using Kylie as a reason to better himself was fair on her or not, but after the first few days and her seeing everything he has done and some things he will do in the future she wanted to stay with him. Leoric couldn’t bring himself to say no to such an innocent soul, especially after she probably saw many things he wouldn't even want to see again. And in the end who knows, maybe he could help teach her to control her powers so it doesn't cause her anymore issues.

After a little bit more time he decided to finish up his training for the night after all he did have a visitor. He sighed softly and stood up right properly before leaping off the post towards the campfire, letting out a large bellow of wind to try and slow his descent just before he landed, causing the fire to nearly blow out before it roared back to life.

“... yeah. I guess anyone can change for the better if they try. Guess I know that better than most.”

“You may know that anyone can change for the better, but no matter how much they improve, there is always the guilt, the disgust, and those that used to be around you that try to claw you back into the disgusting cesspit of what you once were.” Leoric stated as he walked past the fire and picked up some of the debris he had blown away with his rather rough landing. “Look between my shoulder blades and you will truly know my shame and my guilt.”
