Durien had not been on in a few weeks due to work so he took a moment to run through the headlines of the news feed to be up to date on the gossip of events. When he found the video he could only shake his head, it was an arrogant waste of lives and resources. He was never fond of the death of another human being but it was something that happened.<br/>His greater interest was in the creature that slaughtered the fools. Even as he logged in his mind raced to compute how much power you had to have to split open not just a man's chest but high-end plate armor with wards as well. He wasn't at that level yet but it was something to aspire too. He always did like a challenge.<br/><br/>He always kept his eyes closed when logging in the scenary change always left you disoriented if you didn't. But he never logged out in the cities anyway. As he opened his eyes it was still dark around him. As he stood he stepped forward and puts his hands against a wall. Then he pushed, it wasn't a wall but a large stone placed there intentially. As it rolled away he found himself in the woods, woods that he knew well. He picked this place for a reason, there was a small swarm of sprites that were computed into the area that were quick to repop. This served his needs well. One of his unique abilities was to hibernate for extended periods of time to accelerate any healing his body may need but he always woke hungry. As he moved through the brush towards the sprites he started to hear their jingling laughs, once in sight he snuck up on them. Not that he needed to it was just entertaining. Once practically in the middle of them he stood and opened his mouth, of course they began attacking him too, not that they was strong enough to do anything. A ball of light began to form in his mouth and sprites began to fall from the air, once the ball filled his mouth he closed it. The glow still shining through his cheeks, once it dissipated he opened his mouth again and slowly more sprites fell, he repeated this until the swarm was dust on the ground. It has taken him six months to learn how to absorb their magic from a distance, it sure beat catching them and sinking his teeth into them. Now to head towards town.<br/>
