"How you were ok with us.  Crimson could have killed you two with a single word, even when his condition wasn't as worse as it is now.  Flare, Crimson and Fang all shared a small conversation.  Nothing too big."
(That's why...I recaped?  I knew you wouldn't remember!  It's alright!)

Caligo nodded before adding "We can’t die. I think? Not in a way that matter at least"
(If the way death is handled for them is the one from their world that is, otherwise idk if they could or not be killed while Arithnia)

"Depends on a few things.  How would you define death?" 
(Technically you don't 'DIE' in Arithnia.  When you do die, one of two things can happen.  Judgement's incarnate will either restart your life, meaning you forget everything, or you could...well...the High Council would just basically erase you from existence.)

(Oh worm, so die die or reincarnation)
"Hmmm, when you cease to exist? Even if me or Aetsus die here, we still exist in our world, the sun and moon are still there, so I guess we would just, regenerate? I don’t know, never die before" Caligo thought more about it
"Death is complicated, it’s a continuation of life, it’s needed for life to exist, a cycle. One’s soul disappear but a new one come in it’s place." Maybe he has spend too long hanging out with Maria, got him all philosophical about life and death now.
(Maria is the goddess of life and death for context, and to explain how it work in genesis)
(So souls are plants, in a garden getting taken care of by Maria but also reapers, gardeners if you will, since there are so many, when the person is ready to die they cut the plant, or burn it, or whatever way the person is supoosed to die, obviously she doesn’t want anything to happen to the other immortals, so they are in a separate garden, and she ain’t cutting those plants)

(That's putting it in it's simplest explanation, yes.)
"Since you're not of Arithnia, the Council nor Judgements incarnate could touch you.  So it would reason that you would go back to Genesis."
(That's an amazing bit of lore!  COOOOOL!)

"Well, only one real way to find out is to die.  Which, as anyone would know, isn't fun.  Like, at all.  Anyways, do you have any questions to ask me?  This is the first time we are really talking."

"Oooo, I like green a lot. Grass is nice, and also it's just a soothing color in general."

"Oh green is a very good colour! There are so many thing that are greens out there, humans see more shades of green too which I am very jealous of, it’s a very nice colour,"

"Colorblind? What's that like? I don't think I knew anyone like that...maybe I did. I wouldn't remember."

"How come? And I am not colourblind, I think my mortal species just doesn’t see green all that well, I do see warm colours pretty well, I guess they live somewhere with lots of red."

"Yeah, so you're colorblind in a sense then. And as for why I don't remember, it's just been too long. I've outlived many kingdoms which have risen and fallen at this very place. I'm not a living chronicle."

"Oh, I have plenty of those stories. I could tell you a lot about wars, towns, things like that. Only due to Crimson being a complete ass and goofing off do I remember that stuff."

"He’s goofy? With how everyone described him I wouldn’t have guessed" they paused.
"What kind of stories you got?" Caligo asked excitedly,  rolling onto his stomach.

"Depends on what you want to hear.  I'm not a storyteller, but I can share what I've seen..." Leon paused for a moment and softly gasped.  "Actually, scratch that.  I'll have to tell you another time.  I've got something to do.  See ya later kid." he said and vanished instantly.  
"Ho-hum!  Very odd he is!" a voice said.  "Indeed, rather curious.  Maybe Crimson?" another chimed.  
---------------------------
"...so we're basically making another Forge Disk for Crimson?  And you want me to do WHAT exactly?" Leonidas said as he held up the rack of blood vials.  Aster sighed and slumped over in his chair.  "I want you to get Crimson to the Sanctuary under the Castle.  And leave him there for the time being.  My medical bay can't hold him if he go insane."

(He going insane?!?)
Caligo deflated, he was looking forward to some stories. Now they don’t know what to do and he still has the whole night to go through! Unless he sleep but he feel like they did enough of that for a week. They kept laying on the bed, thinking of what to do.
(Really don’t know what he could do for now)

(Maybe, maybe not.  Time will tell.)
"Sleep, we all sleep.  Bed time." a voice said to Caligo.

"That...you're really preparing for he worst huh Aster?  That's unlike you, granted given the new Disk, we don't know what will happen." Leon patted Aster on the back.  "Right then, let's call it a night and rest up.  We got a lot of work to do." Flare said, getting up.

Moons rise and suns fall, the night passes quickly.  A dreams lulls the two to sleep, or what you may call it, a trance.  A black room with bodies hanging from the ceiling and some on the wall, covered in the heavy stench of blood and rot.  A lone person stands in the midst of it all, clutching a fallen body and crying.  A sense of dread and fear seems to fill you and vanish in an instant, but is replaced by a solid determination and anger that steadily fills the room.  The person puts the body it was holding down and kneels over it.  Saying a word that you don't know.  Soon this person gets up and gathers several other bodies before igniting them.  The faint outline of a blood soaked hand is visible, holding...something rather...alive.  Barely, just barely, does it resemble the faint outline of a heart.  
------------------------------
Fang woke up in the dead of night, her velvet sleep shirt soaked in sweat.  Taking it off, she rubs her shoulders.  "Cor...please don't." she whispered, the name 'Cor' echoed through the castle....

Caligo startled awake, their core thrumming quickly, they mulled over the strange dream as it calmed down, a prediction of the futur? A vision of the past? Or a cryptic message? What could it mean…
Is it of crimson? He had set the town ablaze and, with what Flare said about loosing humanity, did he loose his heart? He doesn’t like this. 
They doubt he can sleep after that, so they got up and started wandering the halls, maybe a walk will clear his mind.

"It's late you know." Leon said, walking beside Caligo. "You're usually asleep by now. See a nightmare again?"

"Full moon is tomorrow pal. So have fun there. And let me guess, you saw a man in a room? Bodies? Fire? Bloody arm?"

"How’d you guess?" Caligo asked incredulous "you didn’t make me have that dream did you?"

(Leon...doesn't exactly know that for sure.  He's just kind of bluffing.)
Leon stops dead in his tracks.  "No.  It's a common occurrence here in Hanai.  You're unfortunately staying here at the worst possible time with this event.  That dream is a reminder to all who are in Hanai to stay inside during the next few nights.  Crimson will roam the city and repeat his past.  That's his curse."
"It's something we all fear from him.  And Leonidas, I am rather surprised you even showed your face to Caligo and Aestus.  Aren't you supposed to keep your existence a secret?  What gives?" Fang's voice rang from the hallway.  Fang's red velvet pajama pants slightly muffled her footsteps.  It was rather embarrassing for Leonidas, but he rolled his eyes and turned away.  "A plain black bra and no shirt?  Risque aren't we tonight?  Care to explain what the hell you're thinking?" 
Fang scoffed and crossed her arms.  "Drenched in sweat, thank you very much.  What's wrong with me walking around like this?  Crimson walks around the Castle without a shirt often too!" she complained.  Leon remained silent for a moment before speaking up.  "Fair enough, but have some decency to get another one on." he replied.  Fang walked past Caligo and kicked Leon.  "Perv.  It's just pajamas.  You don't have to make it seem sexual.  Not any different than you think.  Get that through your damn skull.  Even Zale and Crimson respect that much."

Caligo had also stopped, getting to witness Fang kicking Leon.
"I don’t see how it’s inappropriate" Caligo interjected, maybe it’s a cultural different but they don’t see the problem with Fang not having a shirt on, or anyone not having a shirt on, many species don’t, why are humans weird about it?
"Also should I be worry for our safety?" He doesn’t like the whole ‘repeat destroying a town’ part of that conversation.

"It's a human trait we inherited from Zane.  Or Genesis.  Or Z.  It doesn't matter though.  It's just human nature for people to be embarrassed by it since its a social standard in some cultures.  And honesty I don't understand it.  There's a difference between being comfortable and being some random slut in an alley way.  So yeah, long story short, it's a culture thing.  Not many people here in Arithnia are affected by it since we know if someone is walking around without clothes with either malicious intent or not.  Don't put too much thought into it please." Fang waved her hand and kissed Caligo's cheek.  "Thank you for worrying for our safety though."
Leonidas groaned a bit and rolled his eyes.  "We can only hope and pray that he doesn't burn himself up this time around.  Just keep your ass in the Castle otherwise you're going to end up in a not-so-friendly positon."
