[color=734960][center][h1]Fleeting Bravery[/h1][/center][/color] [hr] [color=gray]Tku didn't think twice on sending Marci away. She was so young and so distraught by her actions. He made his word to keep them safe to Harracorra and now he felt for the young girl as well. It wasn't an intense feeling, just a personal responsibility for someone so young in such an unfamiliar place. [color=734960][i]How had she been separated from the others?[/i][/color] Tku wondered as he was beaten by the guards and called a killer. He had been beaten many times, it comes with traveling and figuring out their customs with experience, but these hurts. The strikes filled Tku with bitterness, he imagined that rude child was responsible for this. He felt it to be true, [color=734960][i]Why Fiske? Why did you have to leave so angry and cause this.[/i][/color] As they were moved through the city that bravery to jump into battle for others faltered. He had never been a brave man, not like the ones of great renown at least. He wondered if they also felt dread in their hearts when they realized this could be their end. The cities didn't want an explanation, they wanted blood. The little sights Tku saw of the people were overcast by the beautiful sights. It was a moment of acceptance that he drastically misread how things would go, how much time they would have to be rescued. [color=734960][i]So why look at angry faces when you could look at beauty?[/i][/color] As most definitely to their displeasure Tku took in their city for the beauty of it and looked past the people here. The buildings were exquisite, the bright clothing was refreshing if not a bit much. The dyes in their hair were bold and brilliant. They created so much and Tku wanted to breathe it all in before he passed. Even as they had their heads covered, he could feel how the court was designed very differently from others. It was meant to be a showroom. A place of high praise and serious judgement. But even with his coping Tku failed at holding the dread away. Even with their public defender, Naxos, his nerves frayed as they were placed in front of honorable Judge Nyax-Acan… [color=734960][i]Benedetto?!?[/i][/color] Tku was so shocked that he just stared.[color=734960][i] Was the Angry Child still a child or had he grown? Wait did he actually grow?[/i][/color] And Nyax-Acan answered it quickly by dispersing the first case with the sirrahi in a rather crude way. But now his gaze was at them, and it was time to decide. Well for Desmond to decide. [/color]
