Nox wanted to jump in declare he'd never been helpless. But there had been a time in his life he had been. Everytime his father had gotten angry. Everytime he failed. Everytime.... He kept silent. The Ascendancy wanted something from him. Wanted to guage his reaction to the hard questions. Nox knew he was dysfunctional in many regards. Knew that the Atharim had corrupted his mind, gave power to his body but they tormented his soul with all the wrongs and rights of the world.
It was a cult. "I will do whatever it takes to keep people safe." If that required him to lead he would if it required him to bend and scrap to some man he would. But he had to see the point of it. The reason behind it all. "I will submit, I will hunt, I will fight. I will lead whoever I need to if that's what it takes. My sister would warn you against let me lead anything. She says I get into way too much trouble for my own good." Nox grinned. Case in point - here he was standing in front of the Ascendancy - one of the most powerful men in the world making jokes.
