Shindara and Amuul could feel the man's cold seething anger, however it didn't concern them as much as people may think; it was their summoners anger that worried them because when he got angry it was deadly not only to the target but potentially Ruvel himself. None the less they knew the other was right, the mind and soul where both sanctuaries to people and wither they wished to invade them or not it had been the curse they where born with.
'My name is Shindara I am the crowned prince of my people...' he introduced himself
'My name is Amuul, I am his younger twin brother' the other followed suit, they had no problem about revealing their real names after all Ruvel only hand to think of them in means to summon them so the two sides would remain separate.
'We understand we took something sacred' the voice of Amuul spoke
'We can't help it, it was the way we were born.' Shindara continued, both their voices though never loosing their calmness held shame within them, it was clear they where speaking the truth.
'It is a curse...' Shindara spoke with a faint sigh
'Try being in a room with hundreds of people and being able to see every detail of their lives, their every thought, every memory, every dream...' Amuul continued
'We can't prevent it and there's no way to truly guard from us' Shindara continued
'It's why we ask people to try be careful on what they think and feel when we are around' Amuul said, there wouldn't be a hint of deceit from either male instead there would be pain and shame from them both.
'Please don't be angry with our summoner, he doesn't know...' Shindara finally spoke after a long moment
'He doesn't know because every summon he has has full discloser clause with him... he needs to bare everything to us, so this kind of thing has never really came up in conversation with him.' Amuul stated with a sigh
'It's not like people normally come into the bond that aren't a summon of his either, only one other has and that person wasn't even invited by him but another summon' Shindara admitted
'He must trust you on some level to let you do this' Amuul finished.
'Where it is true we know your name our ally, we will share it with no one, not even our summoner unless you allow it.' Shindara spoke to the other, they where speaking on an individual network from that of the one they had with Ruvel
'Our people speak telepathically so we have a separate network' Amuul interjected before the other could take further offence believing they where spilling his secrets
'While we speak with you on the main network we will not even call you by your alias' Shindara continued
'It is not our way.' Amuul continued
'Our people hold honour, tradition, duty and appearance above all else and you have ours that what we see will go no further unless you wish it' Shindara said in a disciplined tone
'Again you have our apologies our ally, please help us atone for our actions.' Amuul's voice rang true on his words neither of them had shown a single thread of deceit the entire time, they truly wanted to make amends with the other no matter what the cost was so long it didn't break that one rule they kept dear. That rule being they didn't share what wasn't theirs to.
'Our summoner is a kind boy, he's just a victim of circumstance.' Amuul stated biting his lip
'Don't even think about it Amuul!' Shindara's voice boomed
'They are not yours to give!' he continued his voice though calm easily seen as distraught
'I wasn't going to let him see our summoners, but ours...' he said opening up his own thoughts with his brothers silent blessing Oras would see their majestic home, their mother and father, their people, daily life; then the memories would take a different turn as he would see how people looked at them as if they were monsters fear in their eyes how they clung on to each other as the identical youths in fear seeing the hatred of others for their abilities, it changed to show them growing pretty much in isolation.
'The only reason we were not killed, is because it would be treason...' Amuul stated in a low tone
'We are still feared for what we can't control, but we are always open when someone joins the network.' Shindara finished, they would wait to see if there was any other way they could atone after baring themselves completely to Oras, there was now no secrets between the three.
'My my there's anger on the network, and here was me just thinking the block head got that way' a woman's voice chuckled
'Shut it firework or I'll get windy to suck out the air of your flames' a male voice bolstered
'I actually thing this guy is angry at the poor innocent Moon... doesn't surprise me to be honest.' she said again
'Keep it up fire!' A small voice said
'Forgive his manners, he's wasn't raised with them' another womans voice said this woman's voice he would recognise from their first task together
'Will you all please be quiet, your giving me a headache' he didn't sound angry or tired but there was something not quite right with his tone
'Are you pushing yourself dear one? How are your eyes?' a gentle warm tone flowed through
'I don't think he's eaten in a while and we've been pushing him in training...' the first male voice known as warrior spoke
'Do you two need to be so heavy handed with him? For the sake of the winds you know he has problems!' the voice though gentle seemed to be upset and somewhat angry at the male
'And I'll be speaking to Jester about this when we return to because he obviously needs rest!' the voice continued
'Always fun when your doctor and guardian argue' Ruvel said with a sigh
'I'm fine for now, but most likely will require my medicine soon' as he thought such a thing his hand went to his neck as if protecting it from something the pendant dropped to be hanging around his chest. His summons to note that he must be feeling worse than what he actually had admitted.
'He's a complicated child, please bare him no ill will' it would be another voice he would have heard before, the woman of snow
'Moon, you better remember you are not on this task alone now so lean on your allies abilites and let them strengthen your own.' she reminded him, making Ruvel nod showing he understood her words
'I understand Snow' he turned and looked to Oras, his hands going to his mask covering it as he bent forward a little
'I do apologise for my behaviour but I hate this kind of task and want to get it done as soon as I can so I can see my friends again, their eggs will hatch any day now.' his voice was softer, after a moment he took his hands away from his mask as he stood. Shindara and Amuul heard the words and even without a single word the other would still be able to feel their glares
'We have no master, we entered a contract not slavery!' Amuul stated in the same calm tone but it held anger, it was as if he had offended them which he inadvertently had with that one sentence
'His magic is a lost forbidden type of summoning, he must make contracts but unlike celestial wizards where both parties are equal, the favour of the contract is stacked in the summons favour we he is not equal to us.' Shindara informed him
'He has to bend to our desires, our wills, our wants or the contracts become nulled' Amuul continued, it showed that the summons had more power over their summoner than the summoner had over them
'He gains special benefits due to this, but sometime we wonder if it is worth it.' Shindara finished
'Give him a chance, socialising and trust are far from his strong points.' Amuul stated with a sigh, he wished he could inform the other why it but broke their rule.
Ruvel blinked watching as the illusions ran off and sighed
"And you call me careless..." he said running after them watching as they decided to take on the many bandits they met along the way "Thanks for the help" he said knowing that the other was able to see and hear through his illusions. Ruvel continued to run forward, his hand flicking quickly as a seal made of pure light appeared underneath his feet and expanded for twenty meters, tendrils of light shot up grabbing any enemy standing within the seal and cocooning them allowing ruvel to create two straight blades made of light appear in his hands as he dashed between the enemies. Where it was true he was dealing damage no physical wounds could be seen and he made sure that he didn't hit anything vital, soon the tendrils vanished and the bodies of the men dropped to the floor moving one of the weapons to his other hand he went around each checking for vitals
"That's a relief, I'd have hated myself for doing any real damage to them." he said to himself more than anyone else before standing up waiting for the other in front of the room that likely held the one responsible his bodyguards and the stolen cargo his hand took the secondary blade back as he looked behind him his eyes glowing a little
"Lets do this together hm?" he was trying to remember what his summons had said to him it was just difficult was all.
