But I Am Free
Panatha had always been his home. As a boy, he remembered the palace. His siblings, all running around. It was rare he ever saw the same sibling twice in a row with how many there were. Kahlil had never paid them much attention, though. His time was better spent in the library, reading through the various tomes and stories. Fantasies written about Epicanthix heroes that he one day wished he could be. Spellbooks on the dark magics he was meant to learn as a Zambrano gifted with Sorcery.
It's where he'd almost been killed on more than one occasion.
It was a world he never thought he'd want to visit. All his adult life he'd been running from his family, his past. But this wasn't about his past. Or his family.
Hyperspace ended as his ship exited just above the jungle world. The Eternal Empire had taken control of the world, and for once he figured he'd be safe enough to go home. He turned his gaze towards Valery Noble , offering her a brief smile. That's why he was here. To show her just where he'd come from. Show her who he was. And maybe see something good about his family. "Hope it'll be to your standards. We're not going to the palace, but the town around it is a place I liked as a boy. I wonder if the pastry shop is still there." He hummed with thought, turning his gaze to the world again as the ship descended.
Carnifex and Prazitus weren't going to be here this time. All should be fine.
