       The warmth of the fire before him couldn't reach the numbness
       Mal felt deep down inside, even as his hands hovered out towards
       the licking flames their heat still felt out of reach. He sat in
       silence for a moment longer his mind lingering on what Auron had
       filled him in on, that coupled with his fractured memories of
       the events that took place in Yarrow; each one felt like a
       splinter buried beneath the skin making him want to pick at it
       out of discomfort. Ultimately he felt he deserved the feeling
       and let it remain, a solemn reminder of the monster he was
       capable of becoming. The thought of Lana's face before he...
       With a shake of his head he rose to his feet and kicked the
       fresh powdery snow onto the fire, the resounding hiss of the
       heat being snuffed out as a cloud of steam rose like a wall
       before him. Following a recentering sigh before stepping through
       the fog to face what lie on the other side. It was time for a
       new chapter to begin, though it was filled with uncertainty it
       felt safer somehow than looking back now.
       Giving his signature flashy smile as he stepped over the fire
       ring and took another step towards Auron who was finishing
       packing his bedroll. Mal's pack was slung over his shoulder
       already ready to leave. "Man, I don't know if I'll ever get over
       traveling in the snow.." He said giving his boot a shake to
       clear it from the powdery crystals that had built up while he
       rested. "Gross." Mal had never been a fan of Winter, it was the
       season that was quietest growing up. His mother spent a lot of
       it hibernating, the crops were all put to ground for the season.
       It was mostly just chopping wood for the hearth that they had
       collected in the fall. Sometimes they would go searching for
       winter root vegetables on nice days while waiting for spring to
       come again. This time Spring felt a long way off... if it would
       ever come again.
       A gust of cold wind passed through the makeshift camp. The burst
       of cold air stung Mal's eyes and the still healing scar on his
       face making him wince momentarily in an attempt to recoil before
       giving his shoulders a shake in an attempt to shrug off the
       cold. "Sh!t sucks, but let's get this show on the road, yeah?"
       He said motioning for Auron to take the lead, another show of
       faith that he wasn't going anywhere.

       Auron looked over his shoulder while continuing to pack his
       equipment. Mal was lost in something, that much was clear, but
       he made a decision so Auron didn't feel the need to pry. For the
       first time in quite a while, Auron felt excited for what was
       coming next. There is an argument one could make that everything
       in Auron's life was exciting but that didn't necessarily equate
       to his own enjoyment or even his own happiness. Life as the
       strongest conduit of the Primeval Current certainly had its
       merits but there was always something missing from Auron's life,
       something all the power in the world couldn't earn him.
       Friendship.
       Auron knew his actions were risky and were sure to land him in
       hot water with the Council, especially Meliora, but there was no
       denying the similarities between Auron and Mal. It was Auron's
       hope that he had finally found somebody on his own level, not
       just someone who could help him shoulder his burdens but to also
       understand him in a way he yearned to be understood.
       "There's gonna be a lot more snow between here and the base. You
       might wanna save yourself the trouble and start to like it."
       Auron said with an exaggerated sigh and a small grin. As Auron
       rose to sling his pack over his shoulder, he playfully slapped
       Mal's shoulder. "If you make a good first impression, I can show
       you how to surf down avalanches." He laughed. "That oughta
       change you mind." Auron's voice shared many qualities with Mal's
       own but possessed an arrogant ring that Mal's own sorely lacked.
       If one hadn't known before seeing the two boys, one would assume
       they shared a parent.

       Mal's grin shifted into full blown laughter. "No promises!" He
       said sticking out his tongue at the show and giving a pile a
       swift kick of distain before chuckling again. "Bet!" He said
       bumping his shoulder into Auron's playfully as they began to
       move out and he began teasing at the potential shenanigans the
       two of them could get up to if the council accepted him. "I'm a
       loveable guy, have you seen this face. There's no way they won't
       like me." He said pointing to the center of his face
       dramatically. He was making light of everything but deep down he
       knew due to Auron's reaction both now and when he originally
       left Newark that this council held quite a bit of sway in the
       decision making and him bringing Mal in now really was a risk on
       his end. He didn't want to burden him more, but also knew this
       was a good a place as any for him to be right now. Besides not
       having to be in charge of something for a bit sounded kind of
       nice after being bombarded with responsibilities over the last
       week.... all that stress of being in charge, being a leader.
       Damian hadn't wanted to step into that role and Mal didn't
       really believe he was a good fit for such things either but some
       how it ended up sort of falling to him all the same.... was that
       how Auron felt, Mal couldn't help but wonder.
       "Hey I betcha I can even get ol' Meli to warm up to me given
       enough time." Mal said with unbridled confidence that could only
       be rivaled by a dragon as he grinned sure of himself. "I think
       she digs me." He added with a scoff at his own sarcastic comment
       as he pulled down the collar of his shirt to reveal one of the
       still healing 'souvenirs' she had left him with, casting a wink
       at Auron. "Good thing I think scars are sexy. But seriously if
       the rest of the council is half as angry as her, I should be
       fine."

       Auron's Usual air of arrogant disinterest melted away as a
       slideshow of fear, anxiety, and finally explosive laughter
       washed away the young Commander's unlikable demeanor. "You.." He
       choked between wheezes. "You'd better HOPE she never hears you
       call her that." Auron wiped tears from his eyes while some
       remaining chuckles escaped, a large grin plastered the man's
       face. "Seriously though man," He began with an air of sincerity.
       "If you keep talking about her like that, I'm gonna be the one
       digging and it isn't going to be a crush. It'll be a grave."
       Auron's features softened into amusement once more and the pair
       were on their way, wading through the crispy ice and snow of the
       Mountains surrounding Newark.
       "So first things first, we should talk about the dragon in the
       room." Auron spoke as he turned to Mal, walking backwards to
       match his pace. "Whatever power that is you have inside you has
       a whole lot of interest being drawn in. Not only does the
       Current seem to latch onto whatever you can turn into but it
       seems we aren't the only ones interested in your potential."
       Auron's fingers sprang up as he listed off more of these
       "interested parties". "One, the guild has taken notice...
       especially now, of course; two, I would wager some eyes and ears
       for the princes of death from Coroa have also taken note, likely
       thanks to your girlfriend's reports; and lastly, the Djinn would
       probably like to boil you down into a poultice and sell you as a
       curative for their ultra powerful leaders."
       Auron stopped trotting, causing Mal to cease in his tracks as
       well. "Basically, you've become so popular that you're lucky it
       was ME that got to you first. I mean, I doubt any of those other
       nerds have much care for what you want out of the deal so why
       not take a chance with us since you have my word we won't be
       taking you apart... at least without giving you a heads up
       first." A sinister flash shown in Auron's eyes as he made his
       lightly placed threat.
       Auron stood with his arms folded behind his back in an
       exaggerated show of formality while he allowed Mal the time to
       process this revelation.

       Mal smiled quite proud he was able to get a genuine laugh out of
       Auron and break a bit of the ice that had inevitably grown
       between them since their first meeting. Mal listened intently
       though his attention appeared elsewhere as Auron began listing
       off the long list of those he had peaked the interest of,
       something he hadn't really intended for... As Auron abruptly
       stopped Mal paused in his stride as well and crossed his arms
       across his chest. A thoughtful look flickered across his
       features as his silver haired ally explained just what sort of
       odds were stacking against him. "Hmm well it is always nice to
       feel wanted." Mal teased, much less serious than he seemingly
       should be in a moment like this.
       "First of all, The guild is whatever, their methods and views
       are antiquated and very much not my scene. Clearly they can't
       deal with me or else my little stunt would of went a heeelll of
       a lot worse." Mal almost looked annoyed for a moment before he
       continued a bit more sternly. "Secondly; she's not my
       girlfriend." He didn't deserve someone like her to begin with
       let alone now, at least it seems like the trash took itself out
       when he left so to speak. "As for Coroa and their deadass
       princes' can suck my whole d!ck..." He said motioning with both
       hands to his junk to drive the point home.
       Princes of Death? Why had Lana never mentioned that name
       before.... especially if it was relevant. What else did she keep
       from him? He didn't have time for these thoughts now. It wasn't
       helpful, only a distraction and he couldn't afford to be
       distracted right now. All he knew he had to do was to focus on
       something he was well versed in his whole life through,
       survival.
       "Thirdly, I bet I'd taste great though you'd probably need a
       chaser." His lips curled up into a grin again flashing the cold
       silvery metallic of his fangs. He pretended not to hear the
       underlying threat laced through Auron's words. "Well I'm not
       looking to become anyone's genuine pig so all that all being
       said guess I should be thanking you for being some sort of white
       knight come to rescues little ole me. I didn't even know I was a
       damsel in distress. You want a kiss for your heroics Sir Auron?"
       Mal tease fake smooching at the elf before laughing and giving
       him a pat on the shoulder before he began walking forward again.

       "You're for real... Aren't you?" Auron said, momentarily stunned
       by Mal's reaction to what would be a literal nightmare for most
       people. With a shrug, Auron galloped back along side his new
       ally. "Whatevz man. That attitude is bound to get you pretty far
       in my neck of the woods."
       As the pair ventured through the untamed wilds of Newark, there
       were no paths or towns along the way. It seemed to be just the
       pair and the boundless reaches of the feral mountains. Some days
       there was sun, others there was snow, while some days held
       dangers in the form of potent creatures skulking along their
       territory looking for an easy meal or a worthy fight. It was
       Auron's intention to give Mal a more prolonged interview by
       dragging him all this way on foot but it also gave him some time
       for the Council to settle on their debate and Meliora to cool
       down, something that was crucial to Mal's survival.
       Finally, the two were in the final stretches before reaching
       Fort Blackhold. The base of operations for the Scarred Knights.
       "You know this place isn't actually a prison." Auron said flatly
       as the pair could make out the massive fort built into the
       mountainside on the horizon. "We just tell everyone that." Auron
       gave an ambitious grin as he pushed onward, ready to finally
       deal with the fallout of his rapid exit those few weeks ago.

       "Man, I was born an underdog, I'll be honest none of this feels
       all that new. Same sh!t, different day is all... " His voice
       dropped, this time his words a bit more cynical yet with his
       same resounding humble tone he often wore on his sleeve. "Odds
       have been against me for as long as I can remember so I guess
       I'm due for a win eventually right? Maybe your council can help
       with that."
       Travels and landscapes changed as they trekked ever onward. Mal
       idly poked his thumb into the tip of his fang as he stared out
       across the reach, listening to Auron's words. Despite all the
       snow it was actually quite the sight all things considered. A
       base posing as a prison front, well that was interesting indeed,
       good way to keep people away. "Huh. I mean that tracks. No one
       really wants to deal with a bunch of degens, so it makes sense
       to sort of hide in plain view. Smart. Who thought that one up?"
       Mal asked with a vague curiously.

       Auron placed his hands on his hips in a triumphant pose. "You
       bet it was a good idea." Auron's playfulness vanished as he
       began to recite the knowledge he had learnt hundreds of times
       over. "The first leader of the Scarred Knights founded this
       prison. It was always meant for this purpose, to hold "degens"
       and convert them to our cause." Auron's eyes flashed to Mal as
       he jabbed him over his comment. "Some of those people are really
       just degenerate garbage..." Auron trailed off, gazing up to the
       landmark on the horizon. "... but some of them are genuinely
       decent, even sometimes good." Auron released a deep sigh. "All
       but one of the council members were prisoners brought here to
       presumably rot or die fighting the "beast threat" beyond the
       mountains. Some of them arrogant, some are a bit p!ssy, some
       just genuinely want to f#ck Sh!t up but none of them deserved to
       be thrown away and left to rot."
       Auron's eyes flashed to catch Mal's once more. "Meliora was also
       a prisoner sent her some time ago. Honestly woulda been a shame
       for the Hunter's Guild to get a hold of her abilities. Where she
       woulda been dissected or put down like a dog, she is instead one
       of our strongest, and a real bada$$ to boot." He shrugged after
       launching himself upward once more without using his arms.
       "Guess you don't know what you're missing until it's gone."

       Mal's listened in silence, not so much as a scoff or snarky
       remark leaving his lips as Auron explained the history of what
       they were walking into. "You lot really are a bit of an "island
       of misfit toys" then so to speak..." The weight of Auron's words
       brought light to the fact that he didn't particularly like
       everyone on his side of things but also cared a great deal for
       some others. Mal could understand such sentiments, though the
       thought of it felt more like a hot led ball in his stomach
       rather than a warm comfort. The idea that most of these people
       in power were prisoners to varying degrees would probably make
       them all the more distrusting... Though with how his new found
       infamy was going for him he probably wouldn't have to even lie
       about anything out right. Not like he could even be considered a
       model citizen at the end of the day anyhow.
       Meliora was a prisoner too once. Mal could only imagine what
       for, not like he could even ask her on account of the whole....
       mouth thing she has going on. He thought back to when he had
       chatted with Cirice about what Meliora even was, an abyssal
       teifling. Mal wasn't sure what that really meant but it
       obviously had ties to abilities and strength, just as Auron
       described. Though he could understand the plight of being
       someone misunderstood or different... he remembered how
       differently people viewed his little sister when they found out
       what she was, in their eyes she was a monster. Now... it seems
       in death Lorelai became the one thing she was afraid to be but
       in the form of something else. It seems perhaps she wasn't the
       only one facing such a fate.
       "Well at the very least you guys seem entertaining and its a
       vibe I think I can match." Despite his choice of wording there
       was a definite air of genuine understanding following suit with
       a chuckle under his breath as the white haired elf launched
       forward above. "Oh is that your way of saying you've been
       missin' me?" Mal teased sticking out his tongue. "Show off." He
       scoffed while shaking his head. "Aye does this mean you'll teach
       me some of that bada$$ magicy sh!t? I mean, if the council don't
       hang me out to dry so to speak."

       Auron smiled as Mal's retorts finally circled along to a subject
       he had been meaning to discuss. "Oh yeah. You'll learn a thing
       or two." He gave a soft chuckle before continuing, far more
       serious now. Auron's eyes locked in on Mal's own and with a
       malleable seriousness he began to shed some light on this
       Primeval Current.
       "Well I should say: you will learn what you are meant to. You
       don't just learn what everyone else is doing so to speak. I
       mean, sure, the foot troops capable of using the Current can do
       basically the same stuff as each other but think of the
       Current's power like a mortal lifetime. At the start, you know
       how to breathe and sleep, that's where everyone is. After that
       you learn to walk, talk, and maybe even run. That's where our
       standard troops are. After you learn how to people a bit more,
       you get the hang of it and can start to make it your own. When
       someone is able to grow into the teen years of this power, they
       become a lot more unique, manifesting that power in their own
       special way. After that, just like physical and mental
       attributes in a person, you tend to follow your strengths and
       form your own "life"." Auron let out an exasperated breath. He
       had mostly regurgitated that lesson from when he was taught the
       same thing so long ago.
       "Oh yeah." Auron blurted as his finger snapped. "Some people are
       just born rich and have better stuff than the others right away.
       That's basically the council and me but don't think we are happy
       being rich a$$holes in the metaphor because to maintain our
       seats on the council we gotta stay strong or the next best will
       get to take a seat instead."
       It was a lot to explain but it was better that Mal had a bit of
       understanding before being thrown to the council. Auron was
       determined to give his newfound friend all the ammunition he
       needed to fend off the others. He would be damned if he let
       another friend get taken from him.
