Cervanus

---

The clan calls him CR-venus-- a bit of a mouthful, to be honest-- but you're not sure what to make of that (especially since he calls himself by another name entirely, and you're not sure if he speaks with one voice or two).


His eyes aren't eyes, really. They glow, like gateways or lost stars. There's something odd about the runes across his body-- the way it glows and pulses when it shouldn't, the way the colors shift that isn't always due to the light. The segments of his wings shimmer and fluctuate, often giving way to something as if through a pane of stained glass, just beyond...


«GREETINGS.»


Are you hearing the voice aloud or in your mind? It resonates on a strange frequency.


«I AM CR-venus. I COLLECT DATA ON SX-42 AND PERFORM NORMAL CLAN FUNCTIONS ON A DIURNAL BASIS. THERE IS NOTHING ELSE TO SEE HERE. MOVE ALONG.»


You're still curious, but you feel compelled to move on anyway.


. . .


Why did you come here, again?
