	"[i]Ahoy![/i]" A raspy voice called out joyfully. Pride spun towards it and summoned a layer of Ki around his hands, forming visible claws that protruded past her fingertips and resembled those of a beast. A unique trait among Ki users, the ability to manifest Ki outside the body, even if only slightly. The approaching figure became clear as day, not hidden by any trickery, and revealing himself as a relatively tall, lanky man with long silver hair that he kept tied back in a braided ponytail. He widened his hands and offered a sparkling white smile, wide as he could manage. His skin was pale, similar to that of a dead man, and his eyes were hollow, white as well with slightly faded pupils. Peculiar, that it was. His features were strange, from his pale skin and hair, down to his elongated, sharpened canines. This man was trouble, but he walked without alertness in his stride. "Aren't we out past our bedtimes, [i]oh but what a silly fool I'm being as the sun is still high,[/i] [b]Idiot![/b] Greetings, salutations, a bundle of hellos, to my two new friends of the [i]Seven Sins![/i] Pardon me for asking, [i]I'm quite uninformed about this region's deadliest,[/i] but would you be so kind as to offer me your names?" The man asked, shifting the speed and tone of his voice at random. He spoke with a melody in his voice sometimes, [i]and shrilly with increased tempo others,[/i] [b]with the occasional brutish overtone that made him sound more vicious than he initially appeared.[/b] Pride looked to Lust for a moment, somewhat puzzled on how to proceed.

	"He is the source of this wretched Ki," Pride said, "He was present in Reginald's chamber, but.."

	"Oh, pish posh! Accusations so soon? We've only just met!" The stranger said, bowing politely. His new posture revealed a long, straight blade, sheathed on his back. It was at least 5 feet in length, unusually long, and had a black hilt that seemed to suck all light away. "I am called [i]Damien Valefor,[/i]" The man stated, "Kust call me Vale, if you'd please," He hissed.
