The path to Paineston

[Phillis Von Christ]

Phillis looked down the path regretfully, it was the path he had arrived to Avaleur by and the first time he'd been alone for so long. He took a moment to consider taking the path again, but the opposite way of course. Did he want to go back? Even for a moment? He debated it for awhile, just staring off into the distance.

Enoch walked down the path, hands in his pockets. He was on his way to give report to Paineston. He noticed Phillis on the path and walked behind him.

"Hello Phillis," he chuckles to himself. "What brings you to this long and tiried path?"

[Phillis Von Christ]

Phillis jumped, surprised by the mans presence. "Just exploring." He stated simply. "And yourself?"

"I must ask you," he said after laughing at the fact Phillis was startled, "Why did you leave to Avaleur, of all the God awful, disgusting places, why here?"

[Phillis Von Christ]

Phillis shrugged his shoulders casually. "It seemed like a nice enough place. It's really not so bad here." In reality, he had only come to Avaleur because he got lost on his way to a different kingdom.

"Ok, and why leave Paineston, why leave your brother?" he chuckles, "For awhile we where searching for you."

[Phillis Von Christ]

"I love Paineston, and I love my brother very much but it's... Well, it's none of your business."

He raises his hands up, "Alright, alright I understand. I'd like to apologize for the other night, I tend to be quick to speak when I am drunk." he laughs.

[Phillis Von Christ]

"It's alright." Phillis said, nodding his head naturally. " You're forgiven."

Enoch was shocked, he seemed to be much less angered with him than at the pub. This was unlike his attitude, he held grudges, obviously Phillis did not, or he wanted him to leave him alone.

"So, you must hate me," he smiles, "I mean do I or do I not get under your skin?"

[Phillis Von Christ]

Phillis tilted his head, confused. "Why would I hate you? This is only our second time meeting, I don't even remember your name."

[Deleted]

"Oh, well sorry. My name is Enoch, 1st class, red division Paineston assassin at your service," he bows to Phillis and laughs again, "I'm sorry one last question, if you don't mind."

[Phillis Von Christ]

"Okay, Enoch. I'll remember that." Phillis said. "What's your question?"

[Deleted]

"What is your position, in otherwords, feelings about this city of Avaleur? I mean honestly, because if I was told right, were you not the reason for it's current state?"

[Phillis Von Christ]

Phillis cocked an eyebrow. "What do you mean by that?"

[Deleted]

Enoch smiles at Phillis, "Well I've hear you would be the one who decided to attack," he explains, "That you were the 'mastermind' behind it all"

[Phillis Von Christ]

"That was a long time ago." Phillis said slowly, he pinched his earlobe nervously. " It wasn't entirely my fault."

[Deleted]

"So it is true!?" he breaks out in laughter, "You do have a cold side than dontcha?"

[Phillis Von Christ]

"Shut up." Phillis sighed angrily. "And do not tell a soul. I was a child at the time."

[Deleted]

"You don't have to worry about that, I serve your brother, soiling your name soils his, and I can't do that." he takes out a knife and starts playing with it, "I take your secret to the grave." he smiles and says to himself, 'Unles of course it becomes more favorable to tell.'
