Clean up in the wilderness was always easier than the city. Jacob preferred it. Though he was certain Nox's way was the better way. But neither of them could weld the power of the gods. And that was also probably a good thing.
When Ricky was done he brought over an accelerant and that would be useful, staring fires was always a bitch, at least in this cave there was no wind.
"Just douse the body. I'll dig another hole for the head down over there. We'll burn them both."
Manual labor was good. He enjoyed it. Much better than sitting around doing nothing. It seemed the European way of things. They waited till they found a hunt they wanted or was assigned to them. Those archangels were always looking for a hunt, but with restrictions breaking down with the fact that these channelers were people it made their lives a bit more difficult. There were rumblings about a new shadow faction. Those using the gods for their purposes or even aligning with them. Jacob knew nothing about that. As if he was part of that movement.
But it wasn't Zephyr's caging of the new boy that he was hearing rumblings about -- this was something different.
"You heard the rumblings where you are about using the godlings or a change in the way we do things?" Jacob asked. It was just gossip. He was spreading nothing he knew anything about. Though he had a meeting with the HQ guy in Moscow, though he knew nothing more than he wanted to talk about Nox. And if it was about Nox it was likely something to do with this so called rumor.
