There was no doubt that their lives hung in the balance. Despite his normal attitude towards life he was not a stupid man, he knew better than to mouth off, not that he wanted to. But it was a challenge not to speak. He wanted to know more. He was afraid, but he should have been more afraid than he was. The prospect of even seeing a man like Ascendancy wield the power of the gods. A man who had lived much longer than he had, and yet he still looked so young. He'd been wielding this unknown power far longer than anyone really knew. And here he was holding an enormous amount of power, and he was actually going to do something with it. To say Nox was giddy inside would have been an understatement.
Nox wondered what other thoughts would start popping into his head. First the ability to hold multiple weaves at one time, and now Ascendancy was going to continue his work. Nox probably wouldn't have shared any of his secrets with someone he called an enemy, but unless he was told to not watch the chances of him not learning something here this day, if he survived, was going very small. But to do that he had he had to survive. Without word or ceremony Nox sat down. It was far less graceful than it could have been, he felt like a child who was about to listen at story time. And really this was more like show and tell. Except he didn't think Ascendancy would be telling him anything, and he doubted he'd answer any questions Nox had. But he would learn something, Nox had no doubt in his mind. He just might not understand it.
Cords wrapped around him, unseen to the normal eye, he could see Aria's discomfort. He looked over at Lucas and reigned in his comment to soothe her, Lucas was temperamental. They may have come to an agreement of sorts but he had enough to worry about as it was and it was best not to say anything anyway, with Apollyon lurking nearly 10 meters in front of them.
