Every sound the city made at night, every scream, laugh, shout and clatter, Aui flinched at. Not from fear, but from a desire to investigate perhaps, to seek the noise out and perhaps to spill blood. Olathgost could see the fire behind her eyes; it was furious, alive, inhuman. Her skin was ashen and drawn, dark veins ran down her neck and temples and in the moonlight, Olathgost could see that his sister's teeth were pointed, her nails long and clawed, her posture was feral, ready, alert, dangerous. "We're both dead now, brother. You know this. I will be destroyed for being a traitor, perhaps fed to the demons they bound to me. But you, your death will not come so quickly or exsuisitly. They will make an example of you and your friends, you have given them a bloody nose, perhaps driven them out of Athkatla, and they cannot leave that unanswered. So, for now, you live, you have me stand before you, but your sister is dead, I am Aui now, they made sure of it, they put something inside me, made it into me..." she tailed off, unsure herself how to explain what she meant. She seemed transfixed by her forearms - sinewy and tougher than oak no doubt, but they still appeared frail, slender, young. "So what now? They will be looking, scrying, sending their spies, perhaps they will bring more like me or demons through their portals that still stand beneath the enclave, where do you think we can be safe? Do you even know? Did you even have a plan if you got what you wanted?"

*Olathgolst looks into his sisters eyes, seeing them as his sisters eyes still, not that he ever knew them. He smiles, reaching a hand out to her without realising*
"I was dead along time ago, thrown into the pits and dark places. I my fear of death went a long time ago. My only goal since was to see what family i had left.... That was you. Isn't is worth it just to be a family again? Sure now we run, hide but we can do that together, like a family..."

She withdrew from his hand with a feral hiss, her claws extended, she hopped back as if about to spring. For a moment her eyes lit up with pure hatred but it wasn't hatred for her lost brother, but hatred for all living things. It was the way she was made... To hate that which she had to kill. "There were whispers, words in a language I did not know but still understood. I am dead too, we were dead from the moment we were seperated." She relaxed a little, but Olathgost could tell that she hardly ever did so; that she was poised ready at every moment, a monster on the edge with a desire to slay. No, a purpose to slay. "The Thayans knew what they were doing when they made me. I am not your sister anymore, I am not Clem. She is gone forever and I am only borrowing her flesh. I don't look at you and see family, I see meat. I see a victim. I am fighting at every moment to not rip you to pieces and devour you. Does that sound like a sister to you?" She had no empathy in her eyes, no love, no compassion. "I do not run... I do not hide. I kill."
