Sophia's knees wobbled slightly, her yellow eyes widening. Her voice sounded shaky. "You...you know...that...that thing?" Tyler had referred to the man from earlier as an 'old friend'. It seemed that the man who had killed Jezin was also the one who had injured Tyler. Sophia sat back down in her chair, looking to the ground for a moment. She steadied her breathing and looked towards Tyler, her eyes filled with a sort of primal fear. "Sir Tyler... please tell me. Who is he? Who was that man? and what does he want with me?" Despite her best efforts, her voice cracked as the last words left it. She gritted her teeth in frustration, trying to hold back tears. Maybe Tyler could demystify the abomination, at least somewhat. The man himself had given no answers. She felt Eva pat her gently on the back.

 The Tauran watched Sir Tyler carefully, listening to every word he said. An interest sparked in her eyes when he mentioned his acquaintance with their pursuer. Perhaps they would get some answers after all. She patted the Princess gently on the back, trying to calm her from her traumatized state. The gesture would do little good, though. She knew what such traumatic events could do to a child. Hell, she wouldn't be here without experiencing a few of her own.
