It was after he had finished talking did he take the panther form. Majestic and large. Much bigger than Ra'ken was. To be honest, this was him. The real him deep down. It was hard to tell who was the main personality that was in him. Ra'ken or Talon.  His eyes were actually grey, a silver gaze. Normally he held color but... Not when the truth was there. His body learned to hide the fact he was actually partially blind.  As the hand inched slow to his face he squinted but sniffed the hand. Moving and nipped her lightly. Showing the trust.  His tail curled around his body as he listened. In taking the information about a nice land to hunt. Sure he had this form but it was a blessing.<br/><br/>Most of his family had been human save for his mother. Hearing the name of Malora he growled and jumped off the rock. Claws out as he paced the grassy bank, "She never met the child minded lad. the hidden reality. You see- ra'ken is the child deep down that was ripped from his parents who never grew up. Never got to play- I was the one who did. I became a man. I grew but he stayed hidden in the subconscious unless drugged for her fun and games<br/>Due to my nature of wanting to fight or kill my way out of that hell- I was used a lot to fight. " He squinted and looked to some reeds. Taking his claw he cut down the plant and turned to her, "I was the animal that fought - he was the human. Once he realizes it's time to be a man and that life is better now, we both will become one solid soul." He snarled and paced. Only once bumping into a rock.<br/><br/>"I am not afraid. I'm ready to die. I know death is a part of life. Being around... Without family and watching men and woman die at my claws... tearing the men who hurt me apart-" he hissed but paused as he laid down, "Kate... We're broken. Abused. Scared.... All of our lives we killed or slaved for nobles... I don't need to tell the entirety to have you know there are things we want to forget. One day... When the time comes.... I'll go away and he will be Ra'ken Talon once again. He'll grow into a warrior or even a gaurdian - I don't want to be around forever, not when it's his life.  He's the gentle one... I'm the battle torn. One day both of us will be one. The same man you know but depending down he'll be less skittish... " Talon looked a bit sad, "ai know I'm a grown panther but... Even I can't exist long when it's not my world."
