From: Kiryuu Zero
Location: Temple of Hades

[ The video turns on showing Zero in a dark room inside his temple. A quiet look falls across his eyes as he faces the camera. He's not one to speak to people let alone about himself but after his encounter with Sheryl, he has no choice. He knows what happened even if he can't remember it. He lost control. ]

My name is Zero Kiryuu and I was here before as a shinki.

[ A pause as he squares his shoulders to face his crimes. ]

I need to know if I killed someone.

They took my memories when I was brought back as a god but that doesn't erase my crimes. I need to know what happened. What I did.

I won't let this go.

[ OOC: He doesn't know he died, he simply assumes his loss of memories is due to the whole turning a shinki into a god deal. Some kind soul, please spring that up on him. Also, for any future in-action meet ups Zero will mysteriously have some pomegranate fruit/seeds on him at all times. If you eat them you'll be sentenced (only if you want!) to stay one night at his temple before the seeds effects let them escape! ]

You came to my lady's temple, a starved and crazed man. Out of the kindness of her heart she offered her blood to you in hopes of bringing you back from your insanity, but then you feasted on her and nearly drained her dry. You almost killed her, and you would have killed her if I had not intervened.

Then, you came for her a second time as an ayakashi.

[He won't mention that it was Sanae that put him down; that's for her to say, not him. He won't talk about the tears, the guilt and hurt that had plagued Sanae, a guilt and hurt that came from having to kill her friend.

He's not here to multiply the man's guilt. But he wants Zero to know what he did so that this whole disaster will never be repeated again.]

My lady says that you lost your mind because of what you are, and that had you been of sound mind you would never have attacked her. Regardless of your intentions I must ask that you stay away from her until you find a lasting solution to your thirst for blood, less you fall to your impulses again.

[ He had ]

[ Done all... ]

[ ... that. ]

[ His throat tightens as he stares down at the words recounting his crimes. How far had he fallen that he'd take blood from an innocent.

A human.

His eyes begin to glisten but no tears fall. He swallows back the guilt, the self-deprecation, everything before it threatens to overwhelm him and swallow him whole. Now wasn't the time for them.

Later.

But not now. Now he had to face what he did. ]

Is that all of it?

[ He needs to know that much at least before he can focus on his request. ]

I do not know how many you attacked. But there have been no reports of any deaths among our community from a vampire, so take any comfort you can from that.

[There's the temptation to let Zero know how upset Sanae had been, that Zero had facilitated Sanae's deep grief and sorrow, causing her emotional pain and heartache.

But that would just be pouring salt onto the open wound. As tempting as it is, it would be a low blow.]

[ A blow he might not have recovered from. As it stands, Zero can barely move past his initial recount of his crimes. It sounded like he'd fallen to his bloodlust, become a Level E. But then... how was he here now? Falling to a Level E was a death sentence. ]

Your god. Who is she?
I'll abide by your request.

The Goddess of Miracles, Lady Sanae Kochiya.

Know that my lady bears no ill will towards you, and that she still considers you a dear friend.

[Her shinki isn't as forgiving, and undoubtedly Sanae will be feeling her shinki's simmering dislike and anger wherever she may be.]

[ Sanae Kochiya... He had wronged her, and her shinki, greatly. He had every right to protect his god and demand more than he was asking, so he'd respect his request. ]

I'll stay away from her.

From both of you.

[ And a minute later: ]

Thank you.

For telling me.
