[h2][center]Zeke von Genbu[/center][/h2]
Despite the state of the city being essentially no more than ruins, Zeke and Pandoria found themselves walking with an ever-wary gaze, almost as if expecting some massively oversized enemy to fly out of nowhere and pound their faces into the dirt. It wasn't the first time that sort of thing had happened, after all, and if there was [i]anything[/i] that could have done this to the city, it would be something like that.

Or, well, a few millennia of abandonment, but there was always the possibility that both could have been responsible.

After rounding a few blocks, though, Zeke let out a sigh and crossed his arms, glancing at the buildings that hadn't been reduced to rubble. A few of them had signs that looked similar to the one that he had seen exiting the building, of course, but beyond that... Well, there were a few that, while clearly long since abandoned, were indicators of more normal things; storefronts, inns, and even living quarters. It didn't look like these had been [i]destroyed[/i], per se; no, the idea that the place had been left to rot was now far more reasonable.

"You know, if there's one good thing I can say about this place, it's that it's not all that dusty. I'd hate to be coughing and hacking trying to look through this old place," he said, leaning against the wall of a nearby building. "It is pretty barren, though; you'd think that there might be some more remnants of the Architect's civilization if this was just another part of Morytha, right?"

"Last time you said something like that, we had monsters swarming us for the next half an hour. Don't jinx us like that, please," responded Pandoria, to which Zeke could only respond with a smile as he pushed himself off the wall.

"Yeah, well, it's not like running isn't an option, right?" he asked back, a cheeky smile on his face as he turned to begin walking again. The immediate sight of some brighter colors caused him to pause for a moment, though, and after glancing between that and Pandoria a few times, the Driver simply shrugged and began to walk closer.

Once he got close enough to ascertain that the source of color was not, in fact, some sort of psychedelic mirage created by the world and instead what appeared to be some sort of female figure, Zeke took a few steps closer, taking quiet note of how [i]odd[/i] the outfit was the closer he got.

"Hey, Pandy... You think that's another Blade over there?" he asked, glancing over the outlandish outfit that was present thus. "Like... Big, fancy hat, weird outfit with a skirt made out of books... Like, do you see any [i]normal[/i] people wearing that sort of stuff?"

"You're one to talk. But if you want my honest opinion? Look at that thing with her! That'd totally be the Blade, right? It's not a Nopon, but what else can you think of that'd be smaller than that?"

"Well, yeah, now that you mention it..."

It was fairly obvious by now that the two had dipped into their own pseudo-comedy routine, having decided that debating with each other over the identity of whoever the woman and her little friend were was more worthwhile than walking closer and actually [i]asking the person in question[/i].
