Seamus nodded softly and thought about it for the moment. "Exactly what I did when I finally decided to leave. I was too young to remember any of the people from the village and I wasn't awake during the invasion so I don't know who destroyed my village. But maybe, just maybe, we came from the same place...but yeah...thank you for being honest." He smiled softly and looked over to her. "So what can you tell me of the Dark Lord and the other Dark Angels?"

Paz thought about that. She had thought that all of the angels had died. She watched him carefully. Jupiter watched carefully and then flew up into the air again. Paz looked at him and tried to think of what he was thinking, she could read minds too, but she preferred not to. Paz thought about his question for a minute. "They're trying to destroy all of the light angel civilizations." She said. She was about to say that was all she she had figured out before they had almost killed her, but she stopped there instead. She nervously rubbed the back of her neck, feeling the scar there she frowned. She felt her fingers start twitch again and frowned.
Seamus figured it might be something along those lines, but why did light angels threaten them so? From his state of nature, he didn't figure that light angels were really all that dangerous. "I don't understand why light angels deserve this fate, but I guess there isn't many more to eliminate besides me really. It seems that you can pass by without too much detection. I am the only other angel I've met that is obviously a light angel..." Seamus looked up at Jupiter, watching him fly about. "How did you find Jupiter? Or learn how to get him to follow you?" Jupiter seemed like a useful ally, and if Seamus could get someone to follow him, perhaps he wouldn't be so lonely all the time.

Paz frowned at his statement if him being the only angel left to eliminate. That meant that there were no more light angels. She bit her tongue because she knew that if the dark Angela came that Paz would be the first one to go. The dark lord knew her personally so she'd have a big red X on her face if they ever did come looking for the last of the light angels. When he mentioned Jupiter she looked up at the male hawk flying around. "I don't know why he follows me, probably because we're such good friends." She stated and then added, "and because we can talk to each other." She had to think about how she found him. He was just a hatchling, he had fallen out of his nest so I had helped him back in, but his mother rejected him, I guess because he had my sent in him, so I raised him as my own and when it came time for him to leave he never did." She told Seamus.
Seamus looked up at Jupiter once more, flying around above their heads. Perhaps he could find a companion. He hadn't tried listening to the animals, who knows which one of them might have been trying to talk to him this whole time. But the Dark Lord had come up yet again. He desperately wanted to meet him, to see how strong he truly was. He wasn't one to start a war, but if this Dark Lord led the raid upon his village, he had to know what he remembered. Despite how much he would despise him, he had to know what the Dark Lord knew of his parents, his village, and his culture. "I know this is going to be a touchy subject, but how does one find the Dark Lord? I need to...make his acquaintance."
Paz went quiet when he mentioned that dark lord. She examined Seamus with critical eyes. Make his acquaintance. She shook her head. "You don't need to know, you'd be killed Seamus." She said. She had actually found an angel that might be from her old village, she didn't want to find out that he was dead.
Jupiter looked down at the two angels and angled his wings so that he landed on a rock just above them. He hadn't seen anybody else in the area so he decided that Paz was safe for now. "How's it going?" He asked her. "Good." She replied. Seamus wouldn't be able to hear this unless he was listening to her thoughts.
Which he was. It was a natural reaction, the sounds were almost impossible not to hear. They were as audible as any other sound in nature. Plus, he could also hear Jupiter himself. It was a little gargled sounding, but it was comprehendable. Addressing her worry about him, he chuckled softly and smiled. "I don't think he would kill me as easily as you think. But I must meet him. He is the only one who would know anything about my people...our people...he has what I've spent years searching for. I'm willing to risk it..."
Paz rolled her eyes. "Your quite the stubborn one aren't you?" She sighed. Truth be told she knew a bunch of stuff about the light angels that he might not know, but she didn't quite want to just give away all the things she knew to this stranger. Paz rubbed the back of her neck again. "You have to know the correct spell, or have the right tools." She said. The dark angels had hidden their villages better than the light angels it seemed. Paz clenched her hand into a fist. She knew the spell to get there but she was not going to tell Seamus.
So that is her boundary. She will give some information, but won't risk my life. Nice to know. He could tell that she was not going to give him the pathway to the Dark Lord, so Seamus decided not to push the matter further. "I thank you for what you have been able to tell me, but I won' continue to ask about him further, as I see it bothers you." His legs creaked slightly as he stood up, brushing off the dirt from his pants. "May I interest you in a drink in town? I'm getting kinda hungry." It had been quite awhile since he had ate, and the sound of food was tantalizing to say the least.
When he said he wouldn't ask any further she smiled. It was a good thing that he wouldn't, because it really had made her uncomfortable to talk about angels and the Dark Lord and things like that. When he offered drinks she was quite surprised. She had suspected that that would be all and that they would go their separate ways now. Her finger twitched a little bit as she thought about what to say. "Why not." She finally said and stood up. She highly doubted that she could bring Jupiter with them so she told him to go hunting for himself. He nodded and was off. She turned back to Seamus. "Lead the way."
Seamus waved good bye to Jupiter and watched him fly away, then waved for Paz to follow him down the cliff, jumping from the ledge and shooting out his wings, gliding inches from the ground all the way down. Life was nothing without adventure mixed with a little danger. Towards the base he began to bank right, directly over the river that divided the forest. The speed the two collected would carry them far enough down the river that they could land and take a bus the rest of the way into the city. Mix the monster life with a little bit of humanity.
Paz followed him easily enough. She was a skilled flyer so it wasn't a problem for her to keep up. She wasn't really sure where he was taking her and without Jupiter for a warning she was on guard. She kept watching in case there were people in the trees, or something terrible just waiting to happen.
Without incident, Seamus landed on the bank of the river, just a few clicks away from a bus stop. "Welcome to the edge of town, though I suspect you know your way around," he stated, turning back around smiling to watch her land. His wings folded nicely under his jacket, mostly going unnoticed and unable to be noticed by the casual observer.

Paz landed beside him and looked around. She did actually know where they were. She had been here long enough to know this place. She smiled at him. Paz waited for him to continue. "So where are we going?" She asked him.
Seamus walked next to Paz, arriving at the bus stop within a few minutes. "There is a cafe in town, relatively new but I hear the food and drink is fantastic." The bus arrived soon after, and he let Paz board first. This particular bus tended to be empty, since no one really used this route.
