Sooo...Meet-y

[cityship]

The rest of the crew assembled on the Observation Deck to meet the latest editions to their number. After the recent revelation, many of them were even more eager to see people they knew from home.

Brainiac 5 and Sensor were set up near the doors to provide the new people with omnicoms and comm rings.

There's a lot to tell the new people. It's going to be a lot to take in.

He tilts his head up at the... skeleton man, but his only reaction is a nod. "Thank you." He had reason to be proud. His father and mother were both of very fine lineage. Batman and Talia Al Ghul. "Your weapon is fine as well. Are you a skeleton?"

"Aye, more or less. I be a Death Knight: an eldritch, undead warrior, nigh-unstoppable and such that even gods and devils aproach with trepidation." The tones with which he spoke were not bragging. If anything, he was most ashamed of what he was. Regardless, he promised to face it, and to avoid angsting as much as possible. At least when Sheeana was around.

"Is thine blade enchanted as well? Its quality wouldst certainly allow it to hold a powerful sorcerous boon."

"No. It's just a sword." He eyed the skeleton warily. "Nothing's unstoppable."

"True. Too true. Everything can end. However, mine own end shan't come to me until the day I am atoned of my sin. In this regard, I am nigh-indefatigable. Centuries, millennia have I waited to be rid of this dead but undying shell."

Damian tilted his head and looked at him. "How nice. What must you do to atone?"

[forced-unlife.livejournal.com]

"I am ... uncertain. I believe it will likely be some act that combines self-sacrifice, duty, and an oath made, as all of these were related in some way to my death."

"Hm." Damian frowned. "You should try and find out."

"I would, but Tyr hath not spoken to me in centuries."

[better-robin.livejournal.com]

"Who is Tyr?"

[forced-unlife.livejournal.com]

"Tyr," Khel explained, "is my patron deity, and a god representing the power of promise, of oath and duty."

Damian pondered that. "Hmm. I haven't heard of him."

[forced-unlife.livejournal.com]

"Perhaps not. I have noticed that there are many differences across worlds."

He nodded. "I suppose. I haven't time for religion, mostly."

[forced-unlife.livejournal.com]

"I can respect that. My own life did not have religion until my twenty-fifth winter."
