You weren’t really sure how you ended up here. Zed’s hands tightly grip your arm as the two of you struggle in shadows of small buildings in this little Ionian town. You could recognize that distinct armor of his anywhere.

” What are you doing here?”

The familiar figure spits out his words through his mask, his voice wasn’t loud, almost as if he was trying to make sure no one else noticed the scuffle the two of you were in. You can’t see his face but you just know he is angry. Yet, there is no blade against your neck, just the grip of his hands stopping you from running. Does he even recognize you?

” Why did Shen send you? To stop my mission here is but wasted effort.”
