Trouble in the Market | Tyyne
Aemilia could feel herself being followed, the magic sang in her blood, the aura reaching out to her like an old friend; constant for years and then suddenly hardly ever at all. They were in the middle of a market square, and whoever this other maleficar was would have to be really stupid or really powerful to dare to attack her here. She didn't recognize anyone in the crowd and it was doubtful anyone from the Imperium would come this far; the backwater southern cities were never the fancy of the other magisters. The other options were Tevene assassins; those that utilized Templar talents or blood magic to kill their targets, or the Crows if the Imperium wished to extend her a compliment.Â
“We could just kill them?” Pride whispered in his twisted ethereal tone, “It would be so easy. Simple to crush them, just twist their minds and watch,”Â
The Tevene shook her head, it was much to risky to expose herself even as a mage let alone a blood mage. They hadn't attacked her yet, and whether they would in the first place remained to be seen; being on the run had made her cautious to the point of paranoia. She pushed through the crowd hastily in an attempt to lose them, the perverse feeling in their blood slowly fading from her minds eye. In her haste running directly into another person, slamming herself flat onto the stone.
“Fasta Vass, could you watch where you’re going?” she muttered angrily, the fault her own though she would never care to admit it.
