Darksouls had been pacing along the beach, watching the waves lap gently against the shore. The ocean could swallow him whole in the blink of an eye, yet he found its dull roar calming. It would not control him unless he allowed it to, by giving himself to the waves. Even then, he would still be himself, as he was consumed.
The clink of metal against metal, however, startled him out of his trance. Had they come to retrieve him? They couldn't have, it had been years. Either they had found another solution or they had all died off. They couldn't chain him up anymore. Still, his heart stumbled over itself for a few horrifying seconds before resuming its normal gait.
Seeing the jaglion at the border, grizzled and scarred yet still showing kindness to the sorrowful captain, Darksouls let out a breath he hadn't realized he was holding. He did not know this person, but the captain did. They were safe. Remaining silent, he stood and waited for the moment to pass between the newcomer and the captain; far be it from him to interrupt.
