How could a place like the wastelands – a poisoned cesspool of villainy – produce a sincerely honestup aery and violence of humanityHe knew that huhtHu their own livesBut truth be told, he was inexperienced in how cunning and malevolent a ly thorough selection process he thought he could trust Depp – that the taciturn, soht that Depp would keep to his promises until his mission was done
Cloudhawk really didn’t understand the world yetThe wastelands were still a mystery, as were the people he surrounded hiot the drop on hi his bow back over his shoulder and pulled out a short hunting knifeMeanwhile Cloudhawk lay upon the ground, writhing in pain
Depp’s iron arroas powerful enough to shoot right through a boulder, but it didn’t do that to CloudhawkIt did ed to bury itself in his chest, however, likely only thanks to his spectacular cloakThe typical blades and bullets of the wasteland couldn’t penetrate it, but that didn’t eThe arrow likely pushed the cloak into his skin, through flesh to shatter bones and ultians
Depp moved in toward Cloudhawk, confident his prey was finishedHe paused to pick up his exorcist staff which had been discarded to one side
It was Cloudhawk’s ht back

“I’h Depp felt Cloudhaas finished he still walked warily around the young manHe would wait until the kid died or lost consciousness, talking while the seconds ticked by“Actually at first I did plan to co you safely to the destinationThe commission was sizeable, the task attractiveBut the more we traveled the more I came to realize your head was more valuable detached from your body than on itTens… hundreds of times more valuableIf that’s the case, I asked ive my life for Greenland Outpost? Really it’s all thanks to your skill and your luck that we escaped the sweepersBut noe don’t need to worry about that”
It’s always been this way! Always about self-interest!
With thehis face Depp couldn’t see Cloudhawk’s expression, but he could see the weakness creeping into his eyesEventually he continued with a bitter laugh“All of your flashy toys belong to me nowI’ll cut off your head and trade it for a fortune, then I’ll be sittin’ prettyEnough to setback to Greenland then?”
InconceivableAfter the sweepers, after that bloody battle, in the end Cloudhaas felled by his own peopleHe couldn’t move, curled like a steamed shrimp as blood leaked fro altogether
Depp’s face twisted into a cold, callous grinIt was tiht back
He flipped the hunting dagger around in his grip and held it reversedStep by step he closed in on Cloudhawk’s inert body and the boy didn’t react at allStill, despite the arrow and despite his stillness, Depp was cautiousHe’d been with Cloudhawk long enough that he understood the boy’s strength
That strength came from his toolsAlone the kid wasn’t much, only once he awakened his relics did he become a threatAt best he was comparable to some of Greenland Outpost’s elite soldiersWith his relics, though, he was on the same level as soht with the sweepers Cloudhawk had used up everything in hith to summon his relics anymoreWithout them what did Depp have to fear fro back to his feet and tried to fight he couldn’t stand up to the hunter
“Time to die…”
Depp leaned over and pulled Cloudhawk around, bringing his knife doard the kid’s throat
But at that h the dark holes of the lare of a hawkSuddenly his whole body shook and a single thought gripped him

He reacted quickly he jerking his hand back and stu and pulled Depp’s iron arrow froth he tried to plant it in the man’s eye socket
