Dorian sent ripples along the surface of the water as he crawled along the bottom of the channel. Only surfacing long enough to check on the creature. He smiles as he slinks further into the water. Standing in the waist deep fluid he chuckles,<strong>"Run away? Why ever would I do that? Death is not the greatest of evils, my friend. It is worse to want to die, and not be able to. Everyone dies but me. I truely live not bound by the laws of man."</strong>He wipes some of the murky water from his face.<strong>"And you? You have nothing but your hollow duty. Such an inadequate life."</strong><br/><br/><strong>"Do you crave the release of the grave? Or just the release of the chains of morality that have bound you since your birth?"</strong>He laughs as he raises his sword in mock salute to the abomination.<strong>"Allow me to be your serpent then Adam. I offer you the forbiden fruit and all it will cost you is whatever passes for your soul. Join the brood and welcome the oblivion."</strong><br/><br/>
