Arlen was pleased with himself, far too pleased. He sat erect with his head held high and an arrogant smile graced upon his features. He was in a good mood, a fantastic mood in fact. It was in these moments that Caymus was the most afraid of him. It was in these moods that he could snap and become violent in a heartbeat. To him pleasure and violence were one in the same, but it was not a pleasure he indulged in often. After all, he ran his family with strict grace and composure. They would not have his respect if he berated and badgered them constantly, but he would not have their fear if he did not discipline when necessary. He knew the presence of Norea, conveniently laying nearby, would not be received well despite the respect instilled in his kin.
None of them had ever been received well.
"I see you have a new pet," Caymus remarked nonchalantly, gazing over at the dappled female. He was callous in his approach to her. She was just another one of his uncle's playthings to use and manipulate until he became bored. Though young and impressionable, she was not the kind he usually went after. Arlen enjoyed power and holding it over certain dogs, yes, but most of the time his companions had something to offer. Norea had nothing to offer except company. Caymus would have quirked an eyebrow, but he found himself quite apathetic toward his don's indulgences. Arlen could not be predicted. "Yes, quite pretty isn't she?"
The meeting had been brought forth due to Arlen's renewed desire to bring the Skodas back to power. He had indulged his family for too long, allowing them to frolick among the sick and the needy as if they weren't poised to take most of Cascaro into their power. No, it was a shame he had let them run the way he had but he had renewed faith in his own ability to organize his family. There were jobs to be done, spying to be worked out, and guarding to do. If he was going to soon establish a base in the Ruins, he was going to need to establish a defense system. Patrols, marking, driving out loners that crossed into their threshold. Arlen had no more tolerance for laying low. Now was the time to prep for striking.
"There are changes to be made." Caymus finally looked back to his uncle as he spoke, merely shaking his head. It was enough to be on the police force, but he could not deny his uncle and his family. With Kekoa's police force behind him, he might be able to pull some strings for his uncle and get in his good graces. Caymus wanted nothing more than to cut ties with his Skoda past, but duty always called at the worst times. If Arlen planned on taking the Agilulfos head on, that meant gaining power. Power was influence and territory, both of those to be set into motion soon. He could not abandon Skoda, no matter their dark principles. What he wanted for his family was safety and as long as he had his uncle's favor, he could ensure that.
arlen speech,
caymus speech,
This is mandatory if you want to keep your Skoda! One post minimum, but quality over quantity. I want to keep this going quickly so don't feel pressured into making a big deal of it. I want to start assigning missions/goals for each Skoda to perform. `Gallows ♫ Moxxi ⁞Kitteh⁞ Bird is the word ace! »River
