Aluren managed a faint smile as her slender hand took his, giving him that faint bit of reassurance that he needed. However, his head turned, glancing down at the armored hand, its digits curled into a tight fist.He desired to tear the demonic being from him, the invasive entity that now shares his own thoughts and feelings, though still felt like a worm boring into his brain.<br/><br/>bringing his thumb up, he'd gently caress her hand, eyes closing now as he listens to hear steady breath, letting her warmth act as a sort of confort in this alien realm they were now in. To her words, Aluren gave a simple nod, finally looking up gaze into those silver eyes as he spoke softly. "We will make it through this... we have to." He'd match her gaze, seemingly idolizing her beauty with each moment they shared until she finally look up and to the black sky above.<br/><br/>For awhile it seemed like nothing else mattered but what they were sharing, the world, the undead that stalked them, nothing could touch them even if that was far from the truth. He too would look up, frowning softly as his fantasy world was shattered again realizing the witch was somewhere here, watching them. "It makes me wonder if we are already trapped in the abyss... but I heard her voice, what happened before..." He'd bite down on the inside of his lip, teeth digging until he could taste the light salt of his own blood. "She is still here, still playing her foolish games, and we must find her, Isalisk. We cannot let her live."
