The woman hadn’t been as brash as she was being right this moment- her rage gave into a completely different emotion, or a wave of them at least. While he could barely call what she was now “calm”, he wouldn’t argue against it. After all, there would likely be one less ship in the whole if she was truly angry. “Fine, but as I said before, it will all end soon and he will be no more.” What he wasn’t prepared for was her breaking down from expressing what it was that man had robbed her off. A power artifact it must have been from her description and somehow it was found in the hands of the deceiver. As if just making some coin off of her wasn’t enough. Truly a folly of the mortals and their damn selfishness.
Sol watched her, trying to figure out what he could be using such a powerful tool for when he looked bewildered once she kissed him. What in the hell? But he relaxed a bit when she was using it to prove a point, as funny as it sounded. “This Heart of the Deep…how did he manage to take it from you?” His eyes lowered towards her hand upon his chest, her other playing with his hair. He couldn’t really understand her ebb and flow of emotions other than she was akin to the sea in indeed. One moment, it could be calm and peaceful, the next being violent and dangerous. She seemed to be tethering on that fine line and he was the one that it seemed directed towards. “He could have took it because he wanted to sell it or…as twisted as it sounds, have a part of you for himself. I figure you could ask him in person, if he still draws enough breath when you reach him that is.”
What more, she had said that she was stronger with the jewelry, and given her strength as is with the water magic as well as being intune with the sea, he would have shuttered to think of what would come should she be reunited. At least now he understood why she was so pissed. “And when you end him, you will likely get back what was stolen. I, on the other hand, have a much more difficult task to get back what was mine. My essence was taken from me, my “pride” so to speak. In these parts of the world, do you know what I was called?” He stretched and grew more comfortable in his position, letting her play around with him at her leisure. It would be a first- he was hardly one to let someone venture too close to him. Sol was like fire- the closer someone got, the more likely they were of getting burned. Not that Undine seemed to have cared, lest she wouldn’t be here. “I was called the Prideful Lion of Abed. I had powers that allowed me to stand as a mighty force in the realm of demons, and I had legions of followers in the city. But my own father plucked it away, in a painful manner to teach me a lesson. The essence was placed into another and that’s why I fought against them and why I was locked away in the end.” As he spoke, he traced his fingers lightly against the center of her back nonchalantly. He had his own anger masked in his voice, but it was more of frustration than anything else. At himself for losing his power and the battle, at his father for stripping his strength away and for the damned sibling that his power succeed to.
“As dangerous as you are, you are no monster.” His solemn expression has not wavered, but he spoke the true at least in his mind. “People just paint those like ourselves to be that because they don’t want to look in the mirror and admit that about themselves. That captain…your associate in the islands…they were the very thing my father warned me about back when we were on speaking terms. It is one of the few things I will heed from him.” His fingers continued to drum against her, his warming body felt her cold form pressing down against it, stealing away some of the heat he normally built up, but not completely. He barely noticed it before, but now, he just seemed…warm. Not blazing like a small inferno, but just warm.
