Of all the things Izzy had seen herself doing when she had accomplished her mission, sitting on a rooftop simply chatting for the sake of chatting with Cerasus was certainly [i]not[/i] one of them. She glanced up to the stars twinkling above them when there was a moment’s lull in the conversation as Cerasus thought upon her question.
	She blinked in surprise at his response, which changed to curiosity as he cut himself off, changing the topic too quickly for her to question it further.
[i]What had he been heading to do that would make him want to stop [u]here?[/u] she wondered. [i]Or, was he expecting something to happen?[/i]
	“If it makes you feel any better,” she muttered when she realized who Cerasus was talking about, "I didn’t even see him flinch when he [i]put it in my hand[/i]."
	At the mention of “that man,” she gave him a sideways look that said, “[i]Now[/i] who’re you talking about?” She inhaled through her nose and turned her full attention to him when he amended his statement.
	“Riley mentioned a rumor about that.” And now was her chance to ask about it. “What [i]happened[/i] to him? I mean, if his existence is just a rumor to someone like Riley...” She let the statement trail off.
