Assassin's Creed; Deliverance

[Døvu]

"We wouldn't kill you, don't worry. I hope one day you can learn to trust us."
Internally Dovu was frustrated and angry with her, but knew better than to let it show. He had a responsibility an appearance to keep.
"Back on topic. When we are ready, we will assault the Templar tower and take back control. I want the leader alive though. Understood?" Dovu looked around at the other Assassins.

Tohaku sighed lightly and looked at the many scars his visitor had to bare. "I understand. No less I shall not prod then." He sat in a chair and sipped a glass of wine. "Aside from a few complications I guess it was a good day."He layed a few coin purses upon the floor and smiled. "Ill fetch us some food. You may rest here as long as you need. The templars no nothing of this place but if theres trouble then use the fireplace. it will lead you to another shack some distance from here." He left and began to walk back to town,his gold tucked safely away.

Once he departed Liam stood up, swaying a little looking around the small room. "I got rescued by a thief" He said to himself in disbelief. "Hmm... not an ordinary thief" With that he UN buckled the lower half of his armor and was now in simple leather trousers. Putting the rest of his armor together he realizes that the cloth is now stained with his blood, and has had time to soak in. "D*** it" He said holding up the cloth part of the chest plate. Sighing he placed it back down and moved back to the bed sitting down crosslegged praying.

[Blackfang1002]

He returned to the market where he purchased his food. Meats and vegetables with bread and wine. Enough to eat for awhile. The bodies from the fight were being collected as a priest blessed them. "Atleast it wasnt me." He said as he began to munch on an apple he purchased. "Better make sure the big guy is still breathing. It was only a flesh wound but he is pretty old." He began to walk briskly back to his home as the sun began to set upon Rome.

[FurryJunky]

It is the silent moments he loved the most. The opportunity to slow down, calm your breathing, and purge your mind of all the would ail you. It is what he was doing now. A form of meditation he allways preformed taught by the Templars. It is also during this time he prayed. Prayed to a god who would not her, a god who is merciless, a god that would let his children die for nothing. "UGHHA!" He shouted snapping out of his consitration. Frustrated of how his life had become, how close we was to dieing today, He was becoming reckless.

[Blackfang1002]

He drops an apple in the feline's lap. "Eat up. We feast tonight." He chuckled. The food was placed in a small storage chamber as he finished his fruit. "The bodies have been taken. Those men chose death over peace. I pity none. No less how are you fairing? I didnt want to interupt your......prayer thingy." He said, sitting in a chair near the fireplace. "Old habits die hard huh?" He threw a small pellet into the fireplace and a large fire was produced. "A handsome thief with a heart of gold and a war veteran templar.......seems like a joke thats unfinished." He hangs several pots over the fire and begins to cook a wonderfully smelling stew. "Sorry for my manners. I'm Tohaku Blackheart, Healer, thief, and not too bad with the ladies."

[FurryJunky]

Looking up he notices how fast it became dark and how long he must of been meditating. His nostrils flare at the smell as his stomach makes its presence known. Instinctively he picks up the apple taking a bite of it. "Liam... Ex Templar, but that doesn't mean I lost my faith, its the church that has lost there way..." He finishes saying mumbling. "Thanks... by the way... For providing me with a roof, food, and safety... As soon as I'm able ill be out of your hair. And one last thing..." Reaching over he grabs the sack he had with him before uniting it and looking inside. Reaching in he pulls out a crystal goblet handing it to Tohaku. "Payment"

[Blackfang1002]

He smiles lightly and chuckles. "No thanks holy man. If this were about money then I would've robbed ya and left you to die." He returns to his cooking, his tail wagging from side to side. "As for leaving you may take your time. If it were a burden I'd just toss you out." He takes a look at the goblet, "I will ask however what this is and how you got it."

[FurryJunky]

"I owned it... Before the church ceased my property...I used to be wealthy, And this cup has quite a few memory's with it..."
Sighing he sits back again breathing calmly again as his chest slowly rises and lowers rippling from his mussels.
"Its nice... being able to relax like this" He said full on content.

[Blackfang1002]

"Then it's settled. Keep it as it has more value to you than it would me." He stands and hands him him and bowl of beef stew and a glass of wine. "Enjoy. Your gut seems to require some TLC." He chuckles lightly and sits to enjoy his own meal.

[FurryJunky]

Smiles at your humor gladly accepting the food taking decent sized bites savering the taste. Putting the goblet back in the bag he sips the wine feeling the warmth spread through his body. "Its been a long time I felt this good, or had a decent hot meal." He says smiling. In no time at all he sets down the bowl patting his stomach with satisfaction. "Got a story? How you ended up here doing what your doing?"

[Blackfang1002]

He finishes his stew and sips on his wine. He smiles lightly with a touch of pain. "I made a mistake. I was trained by a proud man who's name stains my mind but leaves no name. I grew to love him. Maybe more than I should have." A tear streaks down his cheek, "turns out he had a plan to destroy the guild. I confronted him and he told me everything." He bowed his head. "I took his life but without evidence......I would die by morning." He smiles lightly and stands. "The rest isn't important. I'm here and here I shall remain." He collects the dishes and begins to clean them.

[FurryJunky]

Looking at him with remoce he cant help but frown. Through all hard ships he himself has endured, taking the like of somone you hold dear was the hardest... And the one that stays the longest with you. "For what its worth... Im sorry." He says hoping it would cheer him up.

[Blackfang1002]

"It's....it's quite alright." He smiles as he finishes the dishes and sits back down by the fire. "Men like myself can't be open about who we are lest we be killed. Our love would have been wrong. His plans were going to end us. My heart must never outweigh my duty......no matter the cost." He smiles and refills his guest's wine. "Live til we die, yes?"

[FurryJunky]

Thinking back to his losses he only sighs agreeing. Bringing up his cup to his mouth he takes a nice long drought starting to feel its effects.  "I cant stay here for long... The Templars know I'm here, they will send reinforcements. I need a place to hide, something more... inconspicuous." Looking over at his armor he thinks again. "And a new get-up... to get around"
