Vermin nodded slowly as he walked further into the room, he had seen her reaction to the drawing he had kept safe. Only so he could remind himself that he wasn't a real imp, but a rather handsome young man that was under a spell. "Vermin will tell whole story, let you know what he knows" He said gently as he sat down on the floor. Where to startt? His birth, the birth of his older brother, the legacy of his family? No, that was to far back. He let out a small cough to clear his troath and took in a deep breath. "My family was very proud of my older Brother, when he was young it was clear he wield the sword of truth. That he was to be a great mage. The sword of truth is like Salvador his staff. It holds little bit of soul of the one that wields it. When it comes back to you in next life, you will remember everything that happened before. It being the only way that they can become the great mages they are now. There are 5 of these, The sword of truth held by my brother, the staff of power wielded by Salvador. Both know one and other for many livetimes. See... Salvador wants to break those spells, destroy the weapons that he has ...... " He could see the look in Melia's eyes. How she did not want to hear the whole story. "When my brother found out that Salvador had finaly found the staff. He knew that Salvador would be coming for them. Destroy the weapons and take their power. He did not want that, the weapons help to keep the creatures of the dark away.They have brought peace to the lands for many a century. I was not there when he decided to take down your king. I do not know for certain of he ever truly wished for Salvadors wife and Child to die, Salvador had to. But it happened, under his orders by hired assasins and robbers. "
He watched her, wanting to see her reaction to what he was telling her. Did she trust him enough to know he spoke the truth? "But it went so horribly wrong. Salvador lived, his magic strong enough to keep his killers away. But he was not able to safe them.. to safe his lovey wife and his young son. He went absolutely crazy after that... He wishes for revenge and nothing else. He cares for nothing else, even now." He looked down at his own little hands and let out a small sigh. "I went to the castle, we knew a horrible war would break loose because of the mistakes made. My brother wished for me to tell Salvador to stop his foolishness. THat a war would do nobody good, but he did not care. When he saw me, asking.. no.. begging to stop his armies from marching to our land. I understood, the anger, the hatred. But I never understood that he would have so many men and women loose their lifes as well. My brother fears him, he knows what knowladge Salvador holds, what he can do. Salvador whent crazy with anger when he saw me. Blond hair, blue eyes.. I looked like my older brother when he was about my age. He had a punisment ready for me, a faith worse than death. He made me into something I have sworn to destroy. HE made me a demon."
