But Kiada wasn't alone in the darkened woods of the Basin - and not just because her hatchling companion was with her.

Ru'in had found out that if he stood very still, he could turn to stone. Perhaps that's a misleading what of putting it, because what happened to his body was by no means under his control, and so even to phrase it as turning to stone, the way one might turn a handle, wasn't quite correct. A better way to put it, was that when the boy stood very still, stone-ish-ness happened to him.

It quite roll off the tongue the same way, but it was more accurate.

And accuracy mattered. At least to the mutant boy.

Standing beneath a tree was a statue-esque looking thing in the shape of the mutant boy that Kiada had met earlier. Only his dull white and cream eye moved. Every other inch of himself, including his massive amount of growing neck, torso, and stomach hair was held in place; dusted by a thick layer of stone.

The boy didn't mind regarding the world from this position. If anything, it allowed his mind to focus on the things his eyes saw rather than having to be distracted by the movements, noises, smells, and feelings of his body. He liked the latter least of all.

And so, as the princess-girl watched her companion hunt, she was likewise watched by Ru'in. She was the one he had pushed, citing poor balance as the reason for her fall. Had she bought this excuse? Ah, he doubted it. But with Ashamin there to stare down her and her brother, what more was there that the pair could have done?

To use his magic to push her again would be lunacy, for his experiment would be derailed immediately.

So he conducted a different sort of experiment, one of observance, wherein he would remain motionless, a ruined ru'in statue observing the girl and her hatchling, and see how long it took them to observe him.





I think he's like actually incapable of speaking first :| :| :| :| sry. @Kiada

Wasn't it you who said I was not free?
And wasn't it you who said I needed peace?
And now it's you who's floored by fear of it all.
