"Sebyl... listen to me."

Jeiel shifts to his trembling Draco-Slime of a wife. "Stop crying."

"THIS ISN'T RIGHT! YOU'RE WILLING TO MEET DEATH IN THE FACE JUST TO CLEAR YOUR NAME - "

"No. That isn't it." Jeiel pulls her head slowly to his chest.

"BAKA BAKA BAKAAA! " She pounds her fists at his chest; they barely have an effect on him. "I DON'T BELIEVE YOU ONE BIT! YOU ALWAYS DECIDE WHAT'S BEST FOR EVERYTHING! WHY DO YOU ALWAYS LEAVE US OUT OF IT!!?? TELL ME!!"

Jeiel tightens his embrace on her. "DO you remember... what I told you one night, when I pinned you down by mistake on Sepin Falls? That..... deep in my heart, I always happen to regret decisions I make in the past?

Lately... I've been screwing up a lot. Somehow.... my presence...my involvement in matters in and out of OZ has made things miserable for everyone. Even Alcamarie.... wouldn't involve herself with Doc if it weren't  just for her whims to get me. Tack's death.."

"That... wasn't..."

"It happened when I bought Cire to the Naether."

"No, you.."

"Praetor.... blaming me for Septius' death... my involvement with Druella, who destroyed his home... "

Jeiel's pristine tears begin to flow, seeping into Sebyl's slime. ".... and ... you all."

Ozma drags her skirt towards Jeiel and grabs his shirt. "Why are you saying that? This isn't like you, dear. Please... come home and.. and.."

"Minna... the Paths's insignia is not as it seems."

Jeiel unbuttons his shirt. TO Doctor Ibrahim's horror, the sign itself had already scarred in a permanent mark around the skin, sinking as if it were etched deep like a burn.

"Ever since the events of the Glyph, the sign.... requires me to feed on Daemonergy. Not just through the link. It wants me to make contact. And once I ever begin to do this through sex.... it'll drive me insane. I heard.. this was what drove Senev to his death. I won't stop. I'll......"

He bites his lip. "I.. can't say it. It hurts me to think it'll make me use you all..."
