Now, earlier in the party Harrowheart had sworn he heard the voice of Jim Kirk, which surprised him at the time. He'd gone to Viatorus' birthday party the year before, of course, but were they friends? In scanning the crowd for him something more interesting caught his eye – he had brought Felix. Or maybe it was more logical to say that Felix had brought him? He couldn't be sure, but it seemed to make more sense. Felix was a mage, after all. Viatorus or Isidor must have met him in their travels through the Nexus.
Still, he doesn't want to intrude. He and Felix aren't that close, and Felix didn't strike him as the sort of man who would want a draugr chatting him up at a fancy party like this. And look at him, he's so... Diplomatic. Rubbing elbows with the rich and succeeding at it with such ease. No, he decides, it would be better to leave him to his reputation-building in peace.
So when the mage approaches him he's understandably surprised. He smiles for him, of course, but there's a hint of confusion in it that only grows when Felix pauses mid-sentence to have his own moment of surprise. He hesitates before he eventually nods.
"I was, but I heal easy."
Felix.
"Got in a fight with one of that Khan guy's soldiers."
You know what's on his back, Felix.
"She was a real quick thing, but I don't think she ever fought against magic."
A power you are familiar with.
"Poked me up real good, got me in the neck a lot. Popped my eye out, too, but that's back now, of course."
A power which is familiar with you.
"I beat her pretty quick, though, and resurrected her body under my control."
A power which calls to you, Felix...
"But I guess that made that Khan guy pretty mad, 'cause when he saw her like that he drenched me in all sorts of that acid blood. Melted half my damn face off. Got my runeblades, too. One of 'em was totally destroyed, so the forgemasters in Acherus had to reforge 'em."
Ask to see them, Felix. Look at what they are now, and know them again...
"So you were there, too? You look pretty good. Kept safe through it all, I guess?"
