    The pitiful wretch sobs, and simpers. Flinching at every movement. His fear glazed eyes follow the Wise wildly, even as he abandons his hands and arms to start slamming them down upon his legs. His feet.

    Hamia's hands find cloths, folded neatly. Shirts and jeans, slack and a few rumbled button ups. But then, there underneath a salmon polo shirt, a brochure. About bird watching.

    Bird watching? Right. Shrike and Crane. Fate has a sense of humor. "Just confirmation. More reason to take these two out of commission if we ever... catch them."

    Hamia stares hopelessly at the bleeding sopping mess. She shakes her head, for Campanella's sake. "I'm not equipped for it. I... I think you're right about us being done here. The only thing I can think of is to call an ambulance and hope for the best."

    She turns to look out towards the door again. "If you're right about this being some kind of fallout, we might as well head back to ground zero." ​Or just try to find it.

    "Then let us rejoin the others. They may have had more luck. Plus, if things are as grim as they seem, it would not be wise to have the group split for so long."

    The Moros' gaze fell back to the ruined sleeper. The wretched ruin of a man wouldn't be going anywhere soon. Campanella considers their options. Perhaps he could convince Aurora to heal the fellow; maybe Winter would demonstrate his Guardian credentials and simply end the creature's torment; perhaps they could call in the Emergency Services when they had finished cleaning up this mess. One thing is certain: Campanella is not going to harm this poor, ruined, man any further.

    At last he gestured to the door.

    As they exit the room, Campanella will close the door. He leaves the broken man to his fate to whatever solace he can find. The Awakened have other things to do.

    The Moros who studies gross Matter has a very grim face, his disquiet and anger simmering like hot coals.

    The wretch sobs, and screams out whimpers as his ruins hands and arms, try to pierce through denim to do the same to his legs.

    The Acanthus knows what she already suspected. The two Awakened that Campanella encountered as indeed responsible for this.

    The fire burning within the Moros, smoulders, and roars with every wretched sound escaping from the poor ruined Sleeper.

    There was nothing they could do, and that just might hurt more then the revelation that people they might have called fellows, colleagues were the cause of this devastation. They had allowed the Abyss in, making no effort to keep it's poison from the Fallen World.

    As the pair make to leave the room, they hear the tell tale ding of the elevator arriving.

    She nods, absently. "Right." As much as she'd like to do something... there's nothing she can do. Hamia leaves the room with one last glance and a kind look in her eye. A promise that everything is going to be 'OK'. Maybe his addled mind might still be able to grasp that.

    As Hamia's eyes drift towards the previous room - the one with the rest of the group - she starts and twists towards an unwelcome sound. Herself and Campanella here... three in the room.

    Shit.

    She steps forward quickly, giving Campanella a glance over her shoulder. Words would only take away the element of surprise. Whoever is in that elevator is, at best, a stranger in the wrong place. At worst? It's someone who needs a long nap.

    The wretch who's name they haven't found, still cries, and still brings his mangeled hands to work upon his denim clad legs, blood weeps from open wounds, but he doesn't sob as he had only moments before.
