| — . ♕ . — | Ardyn had sensed the assassins lurking out in the night. He had ended them before they could become a bother, then went about his business, as per usual. He wouldn’t speak a word of it to Kaaras, however, he had placed them conveniently where his guards would no doubt stumble upon them. Dangers to the Inquisitor averted, he had retreated back to Kaaras’ quarters and settled into his new favourite form, alongside the Qunari’s pillow.
With quietly thrummed purrs, amber eyes watched the man while he slept. How curious that fate had lead him to this world. Ardyn was no fool, and he knew that the deities had schemes and ploys in mind for everything that tread Eos. This was not Eos, however.
So, why had he come to be there?
There were so many mysteries, and it had been far too long since Ardyn had been faced with something so uncertain. He could not decide if that was exhilarating or alarming. The unknown could pose so many possibilities.
Some time before midnight, Ardyn shifted into his bipedal self so that he could stretch, tucking the second pillow beneath his head while he yawned. He rarely slept; sleeping was a luxury, but surely Kaaras’ guards would be competent enough to allow him a few moments of slumber.
What a curious man, he thought, looking upon Kaaras sleeping face from his horizontal angle. Ardyn had once dedicated himself to bettering the state of the world as well, but that had brought him nothing but heartache and a tragic destiny. Hopefully, such a thing would not touch Kaaras’ future.
With a hum of content, Ardyn nestled himself beneath the blankets. When Kaaras woke, he would inevitably find the man in his bed, alongside of him, and that was too much of a thrill to resist.
