Assassin is what I go by.

It's not my true name, but that's not much of a bother.

Though I think plenty of people know it already around here... -shrugs-

But what can you do, eh?

alright then, that's an odd alias to pick considering what it implies but I don't know the customs of this place anyway

-Junk-bot continues to build his house of cards, though he waves to Tallis-

Yo, again.

I didn't necessarily choose it, it was given to me... it's a weird magical state that I exist in.

Something, something- specter from the past... given new life based on what they did in life.

And I'll admit, I did a lot of sneaky things.

ever consider just coming up with a different alias so that people don't think you'll stab them from behind? Unless you can't do that because of your magic state

I could do that.

-shrugs- But then I'd feel like a liar, and i'm already shifty enough.

And I am a man good at that sort of work.

You could even argue that saying what I am, allows people to know what to expect, thus lowering the aspect of the unknown qualities of who I am.

I don't plan on staying around much longer anyway.

There's nothing I'd want here, and the contract I had before is over.

Hell, I helped end that contract.

-sighs- A little anyway.

-nods- Indeed. That's what I've lived by before in many ways.

But... -sighs- it feels like I was a traitor yet again.

Though- admittedly it was by conscience of my ideology... the one I feel I betrayed the first time, and many times again during my previous life.

-he skips a stone across the lake- Yet, it lingers in my mind.

This is how I'm remembered- the saboteur, the assassin- who brought chaos where he'd promise change.

Someone who's a traitor, not only to society, but to his own conscience too. And I wonder whether I will ever be loyal to something.

-smirks- But by Jove, I should shut up a little. I'm not usually one for these emotional monologues.

-chuckles a little-

Either way, I find myself in an odd situation.

I feel weaker each day. Yet- I want to make sure that I at least try to finish one job that I failed whilst I was here.

Someone I failed to kill for my former master.

I just feel that it's harsh on my reputation to just let something like that go.

And at the very least, I know that if I face him for real, with no holds barred on either of us, that he will win. Therefore I can have an honorable death at least.

But on the other hand... -sighs- I almost think I could try to do more with my time here. Get a new master, protect them and actually follow their orders.

Find something to live for, rather than throw myself into death's warm embrace yet again.

-throws another stone, before waving his hand- I don't expect you to have an answer or a solution. I just felt I needed to say it out loud. It's been a lonely few days, perhaps even a week, for me.

He's a man much like me, in that we are both specters from the past. Servants is what we're called, anyway.

He's an Archer though, instead of an Assassin.

He knows my tricks, and a head-on fight would not work out well for me regardless.

I crossed my blade with him in a... semi-honorable duel before. We were well-matched, but he ultimately had the advantage.

From the limited research my former master was able to gather on him, there's also a part where he particularly hates the greedy.

And... I'm guilty as charged on that.

Not that he knows, but my master formed an opinion that if that hatred of greed manifested into a weapon of his, as part of his- form as a Servant, then it'd be more dangerous on me than it would on anyone less greedy than I.

And it may ultimately be the card that would seal my fate.

Well that's a gamble you take when you try to take someone I suppose. You never really know when death is going to claim you, you just know it will eventually

Mmm. I died in prison from cold. I always did tell the guard that there was a draft from a small hole in the wall. Or at least that I should have more blankets.

But- there you go.

I'll take my leave here, good sir. I'm going to wander around some more, have more time to think to myself. I swear I saw a previous target of mine walking around when I could've sworn I killed them. I might check up on that.

Until next time, if we do meet again. -he disappears into the trees-

For I must go.
