"I hear that you ran into someone quite interesting." A sultry voice came out from behind sheer curtains. Shadows moved and whisked about, the poses as vulgar as the voice itself. And yet, when she spoke, it didn't sound as though she was doing any of the actions her silhouette made so very clear.
She hopped up and down, her breasts swaying, her hips gyrating and jiggling, and yet her tone was even and smooth without the slightest hint of fatigue.
"You could say so." A familiar red-lipped woman replied, but her mind seemed to be a bit absent.
"It seems that you are still thinking of him. Unfortunately for you, he is far beyond your means to handle."
The red-lipped woman didn't reply.
"He is no part of the Stormfall Covenant." A man's voice came in reply, but he sounded just as unbothered and unflustered as the woman.
The woman giggled. "How fascinating, no? Now how was he able to enter our sacred land without being a part of our guilds? Does that make any sense to you?"
"The fundamental underlying nature of the Seeds have begun to change along with the Heavens. It wouldn't be a surprise for someone outside of our ilk to form a Kernel of Lust."
"That still does not explain what he would be doing here, though. Is he aware of the true purpose of our existence?"
The red-lipped woman hesitated. On the one hand, she didn't want to interrupt a conversation between these two. They existed on a plane much higher than her own. But at the same time, she wasn't sure if she should say what her thoughts were.
For some reason, the thought that he might be related to the Grimblades kept coming back over and over again.
When those two first appeared, no one thought much of it. They were part of a huge batch that their Guild Spirits had snatched up.
But now the Grimblade name had been spread everywhere across the Skai Heaven. It wasn't something that they could continue to ignore.
However, the powerhouse factions of the world weren't formed of cowards, and their guilds weren't the only ones who had snatched up Grimblades either.
There were two philosophies of thought in this situation.
One group believed that this was actually the intention of the Grimblades, to spread their seed across several powers and gain themselves what the political sphere would call "soft power" as a result.
Soft power was any strength that could be exerted without physical combat. It was deterrence in some respects, or friendship in others.
The fact that the Grimblades had so many talents was a statement in itself. Guild Spirits and other mechanisms of the sort didn't just snatch up anybody.
So, some believed that the Grimblades had allowed this to happen on purpose to both make a statement and reach out an olive branch to the various powers of the Skai Heaven who were sure to be quite wary of them.
