Thaddeus looked up at the sky of Sunfire and squinted at the sun. Despite the many differences between the skies of Twilight and Sunfire, he could see that the sun was definitely going down. He must've lost track of time watching the street performers from earlier, but he could hardly have avoided that. There were so many new things, so many strange sights and smells. Soldiers with glowing armour, strange foods and many, many people, although there were far less people now.

Thaddeus sniffed the air, trying to catch the scent of animal pelts. He lightly adjusted the dead wolf on his shoulder and made sure his tail and wings were well hidden enough before he began moving towards what smelled like the marketplace. He'd wanted to get it sold when he went in but he kept getting distracted, and now there was a curfew in place. Not that he knew what a curfew was, but people seemed to be disappearing off the streets so he assumed that it had to do with taking shelter before a set time, which was apparently sundown. Which meant that he'd need to find somewhere to sell the wolf body quickly, or he'd just have to eat it, which wasn't a bad proposition.

Thaddeus stopped by a gray building and looked around, trying to get his bearings. He didn't know where he was at all, and the marketplace was still somewhere onward. It was the first time he'd been out to Sunfire, it'd taken him a long time to get there. He was feeling quite conscious of his appearance since he was quite dusty and his appearance made him stand out even more. So he stuck to quiet streets, trying to puzzle out a way to the marketplace. But as he lifted his face up to catch the scent again, he caught a strange new scent.

Thaddeus sniffed the air, turning this way and that, trying to find what direction the smell came from. It smelled like blood, though not any blood he'd ever smelled before. It wasn't animal blood as the wolf corpse on his shoulder could attest. It smelled similar to the blood of descendants, but it was fundamentally different.

As Thaddeus got closer to the source of the smell he noticed that there were less and less people. Whether that was because of the curfew or because it was just that part of town he wasn't entirely certain, but the lack of people made Thaddeus a little relieved and a little nervous at the same time. As he turned a corner, the blood smell grew stronger. He peered out and he saw a strange bloodied descendant emerge from a house. She looked similar to other descendants he knew but had the wings of a white bird, though they were stained what Thaddeus assumed was her own blood. As he watched something strange happened where the bird-winged person was yanked back into the house by an invisible hand.

Thaddeus stood in confusion for a moment, wondering what exactly was going on. He didn't know what exactly was happening to the girl but the situation reminded him a little of hunting, or rather, when he failed at hunting. If he shot an arrow didn't hit clean or his blade wasn't sharp enough, the animal he was hunting would often be in pain for a while before Thaddeus could finish it off. It was a lot like that, but some part of Thaddeus's mind wanted to believe that this wasn't like that, that it was just part of the things that the people of Sunfire did differently to him. He wanted to think that he didn't really have to do something about it, and he almost convinced himself that he was right.

Until the strange woman started yelling, of course. Thaddeus sighed and looked around. He dipped behind a nearby house and put the wolf carcass down before taking out his bow from under his cloak. He didn't nock an arrow to it just yet, but he wanted to be ready in case he needed to. Peeking from around the corner, he decided to the house and wait to see what would happen before deciding what to do about it.
