Luminescence 32

Ramon leaned forward, his elbows on the counter, “What of the demon Oracle?”
            Eros shrugged, “Nothing, at least, not anymore.”
            Ramon let out a hiss like a tire. “You’re meddlin with things you don understand. An eye for an eye don’t cut it with demons. They’ll be after blood n it won’t be long fore they come here.” Ramon stood upright. “Won’t be long fore another Oracle replaces that one. It’s a cycle, Guardians got there’s, demons got there’s.”
            Eros sighed, “You forget we’re from Aurelia, we know more than anyone the consequences of such actions.” Ramon seemed like a man of few words and yet as he talked, Eros had to wonder if it was a ploy to steal time, a ploy to make sure they remained distracted.
            Eros searched for that wave, a silent chime in his mind;
            Candor, any demons in range? he telepathed.
            None, Candor responded, though he sensed the same weariness from the telepath.
