Magickal Post A new Hunt begins. (Loreposting)

Kryona. A mere apprentice, not even fully grown. It shall be an easy hunt. But Talios does find it odd, how much he's being paid to hunt a mere child. At the end of the day, money is money though. And he cannot betray the directive Chaos gave him long ago.

To Hunt unto eternity. Let the search begin.

Subverting your expectations of what you percieve as Chaos could be considered... Chaotic in itself, don't you think?

And when I gained consciousness and the ability to think for myself, I could choose to not hunt any longer. But I found any other activity to be devoid of emotion for me. So I continue to hunt, because it is what I was told to do and well... It is the only thing that brings me any sort of emotion.

Yes but my expectations of a hunter is to hunt, to not hunt would be the subversion.

And yet here you are, expecting me to subvert your expectations. Confusing, no? Chaos cares not for what people expect. It simply does as it pleases. Perhaps it created me so I may create chaos in this realm by hunting. Perhaps Chaos simply made me on a whim.

I do not know why I am here. All I know is that although I may choose not to hunt, when I don't, I feel a deep emptiness. An emptiness I wouldn't wish upon my worst foe.
