    Reinholdt clenches his fists and shakes a little, mentally kicking himself. Even Neirian told him to stop doing so much. Finally, he sighs and releases his clench.

    "What do they want? You?"

    So much for that.

    Pretty much. She shakes her head. I was trying to resist it with some successes, but at one point I just got fed up and left with some other goblins.

    ...we lost. It was a slaughter, and I received a blade through my chest. In that moment... I heard a voice. 'Are you afraid? What would you do to keep living? Help return everything to peaceful quiet at my command?'

    I was a fifteen-year old girl. Wasn't just afraid, I was terrified. So... I accepted. Not proud of it."

    "Yes. Ultimately, the Black Exaltation is reliant on the host accepting it, and it must happen at the point of death. Zamira's theorised that Abyssals Exalt from dying doing what Solars Exalt doing."

    Rose sighs. "...it was less a matter of one specific reason and more a matter of a large number of reasons. I regretted my initial choice... but for a while, I didn't really know what options I had. About a year ago, however, I encountered several Lunar Exalted, and they helped me to break away from the Lion, and to revert my Exaltation back to its original state- that is, that of a Solar Exaltation. Seems the Lion isn't letting go that easily, though."

    Reinholdt's got about the same opinion as most people do in ACRO about Exalted by now. Arrogant jerks. Reinholdt blames Ashnu far more than Ebon Mirror for that whole incident.

    Reinholdt's player finds it quite funny and really doesn't mind.

    "Hah! Words, I can handle. Stealth too." Combat, probably not. Reinholdt's very good... defensively. On the other hand, he did get his rifle back, so his offensive power just shot up tremendously.

    "So... these day and night things? Does that mean they aren't abyssal or that they have to be killed during their corresponding times?"

    "No. Solar Exalted can each be placed into one of five Castes, which roughly tells you what they're good at. Dawn are the warriors, Zeniths the priests, Twilights are scientists and sorcerors, Night are those who are good at stealth, and Eclipses are diplomats. Abyssals are basically flipped Solar Exalted, so they have five castes as well, but the names are essentially the opposite part of the day. Dusk instead of Dawn, Midnight instead of Zenith, Daybreak instead of Twilight, Day instead of Night and Moonshadow instead of Eclipse. We can be killed at any time- at the core, an Exalted is still human."

    Reinholdt gives an insincere smile. "As human as I am." He looks human right now! A really, hawt, studly, human that's perhaps inhumanly above even those pretty Exalted.

    Course it's all a lie. He's a cat as we all know.

    "You said, Dawn, and therefore Dusks are the warriors. If Moonshadow means diplomat, why is this... Watcher guy so tough in combat?" So many names to keep track of. @.@
