BotherIt had been.. bothering him for such a long time. Why wouldn't it leave him alone? Why couldn't it just.. stay out of his head. He closed his eyes, lying on the grassy fields just outside of Babylos. Ever since he had learned to summon, he felt whole again. He was in a wonderful place, with wonderful people, even if he only knew a few of them. Khaster, Leon, the Priest, Hrolf, Jyo... all good people, and interesting inviduals. But...[shadow=yellow,left,300][glow=blue,2,300] : .. Hur-r-y...[/glow][/shadow] His eyes snapped open again.
These past few nights... he couldn't sleep without seeing this Protoss before him. He glowed with a blue, fiery aura around him, and looked at him, looked at him until his gaze consumed him, and then, Hakfu would wake up, sweating. What was that thing? All it ever said, in its eerie, etheral voice was always to 'hurry'.
...And truth be told, there was a emptiness in him. It felt like... an emptiness in his heart. He just couldn't understand it. Spending most of his time studying new spells was just a thing he did to fill in the empty. What was... going on?
Leaning back on the grass, underneath the tree, he gave a sigh, letting his mind wander.

A single figure stood nearby, his jacket whipping in the wind. Although, the wind, in of itself wasn't that strong, the jacket the man wore was moving pretty hard. Self induced wind, of course, only to add to his persona.
He looked out over, through the clouds, into the world below. He sighed, almost too audibly, and then turned to Hakfu.Your disturbed, over something. What is it, my young friend?((BTW< I made that confessional thread ))

OOC: Posted there. Time to get a load off my chest.. (snickers inaudibly).
A Man's Question
Without moving his head, he slid his right hand past his hat, and pushed it down over his eyes.
"Ah.. Priest. There has been.. a creature bothering me in my sleep. I have a feeling it is somehow connected with my Clan, yet.. I am left without an answer."
His eyes opened, into the darkness of his hat, and he stared into it. He needed to do something.. it urged him to do something.. but what?

*I stayed away from the two of them, watching from afar. I meant only to observe for the time being. They are two people I have had my eye on for weeks, watching as they grew more powerful.
One however seemed to be troubled by a creature. My mind's eye saw the creature, and I could easily remove the thing from him, but it was his problem. I was not created to interfere, only to study and be of verbal aid. Such was the purpose of a Seer.
I was a good distance away, far enough that they hopefully wouldn't notice me. For now, I just waited and watched what unfolded.*

The Monastary's Letter
Sitting up a little, he pushed back his hat, and looked at the priest. There was a hard expression on his face, as he was contemplating something, even now. He held out his arm sleeve and slid out a folded letter. His head moved over to look at the Priest.
"This is.. a letter that the Monastary wrote me. The nightmares began when I received the letter. It reads:"
He looked back down. Hakfu was quiet for a while. The grass swayed a little, as a breeze picked up, but immediatly died down back into rest, when the winds broke. The creature, monster, whatever it was... it yearned for something.. but, why him? Why did it bother him? Where was it?
"I'm thinking of making that trip to the Monastary. But.. as an insurance policy, I'd like to go in a group, maybe with you, Hrolf, Jyo, and someone else... I don't know. My father had his suspicions.. the question that remains is.. will you join me?"
Huncing over, he had his hands press against the grass, and pushed himself up, dusting off the specs of grass blades off his robes, looking around, patting himself down.

The Priest had flashbacks to his most recent visit to the Monastery, a trip that was still fresh on his mind. Damned Spice...
Either way, he turned toward Hakfu...
I... have been, to the Monastery. Let me tell you, it is much different than here at the Academy. You will, of course, need protection, as your energy currently is no where near where it should be for your summons. That is one thing that I fear for you, Hakfu, is that you'll gather more then one summon, perhaps all of them, and you won't be able to live with the burden of all their minds on yours.
But I would be honored to escort you to the Monastery. As I've said, I know the route, and would gladly show you the way.

Very Well... Then It was Time to Depart Soon..
Hakfu nodded in agreement at this. It was time to get ready to depart for that, soon enough, then. But, he stopped, letting the slight breeze blow through both of them.
"Unlike the Zerg, I am limited to only one Protoss summon at a time, and only one Protoss summon in general. Truth be told... my summons, Dai, Kai, and Sai, are all the same deity---A trinity, if you will. The singularity bond allows for greater control, and of course, great loyalty.. but, the fact that my deity has three different variations means one thing, Priest."
He gave an uncertain smile, to no one in particular.
"I am practicing a perversity of my Clan's and the Protoss's laws. Which makes me feel all the more reason to have you with me on this.. 'trip', if you will. I'll be sending notes to Hrolf and Jyo. I offered Jyo a chance to come, and Hrolf should really get around more often with us. I ask that you get ready now... I'm going to take care of this within the next few days."
Taking a step towards the Priest, he gave a bow, his right hand going across his chest.
Little did anyone know of the unexpected twists that would come from this..
