Arrow Lake Into nothing at all

Scarred and tattered ears, shot to top of head and body honed for years of battle, hardened and beaten tightened at the sound of an approach of another.

Large scarred face swung towards the sound and the sight that met him, was enough to freeze his marrow and ignite his blood. And yet there was a quietness to the man now. Burdens that perhaps as a man who knew them well could see. He had not the heart to berate, though the ire was high as he remembered a betrayal of a harsh kind. Lies. Cheating. Behind his back.

Reyson took a deep breath as he thought of Meadow back at home. Promising that nothing more had happened and it wouldn't happen now.

Ice blue eyes traced over the familiar face, that he had respected so deeply. And that had been the sharpest pain when he had realized that the man didn't respect him in the least. But he shifted and spoke.

Hello Imperator. I didn't know you were still in the area. I hope you fare well?
