Corrine remained silent during the discussion, but her eyes cast towards Dorian, as he spoke, almost dismissively about her… to her he was an enigma, she both understood and yet was often lost in his presence, his perception had often been misunderstood for arrogance she thought but she knew the richness of his soul, but Sayuri was another matter… the light cast by her seemed to be in a state of complete flux, and Corrine couldn’t get a handle on it as she watched her move through the room, a rich swell of darkness following in her wake…<br/><br/>Their words had rung out against her and judged her, rightly perhaps… but through contempt…concern…fear… she didn’t know, she spent much of her time in her chambers rarely exiting and had kept contact at a minimum, partially to keep her focus as her chambers disjointed existence served to shelter her mind and cleanse it of the incessant torment of the planet.<br/><br/><em>Power… what is power without control… how can I control you…</em>but no answer came from within the tempest of her thoughts… little of her memories of life remained, but for the sense of being ostracised and cast out… and when she thought she had found people who would embrace her, they only used her for their own curiosity… the result having cast her into the furious tempest of the planet…<br/><br/>Corrine felt some comfort from the presence of the automaton as she stepped towards her, the soft touch of oblivion flickered across her mind and caressed her senses, an unconscious act but one that she was thankful for… her rich blue eyes flickered across the room and those who had seen to remain… as they watched her, she narrowed her gaze to them… “I believe Elohim’s locality to me will prove beneficial and at the very least i would not have to worry about harming her..."  she paused for a moment...<em>harming her? she was a mechanic crafted in the dark laboratories... a device... a weapon... and yet she felt ...</em>she shook her thoughts free.  "The time is nearing we should wait no longer."
