Kaedor spoke first.
"Has your curiosity finally been satisfied?" he asked. "After all these days. After standing beside that thing day after day." His fingers curled slowly, claws scraping faintly against his palm. "You vanished, then returned and turned my family into targets. You attacked the Thal'zar. All of it, for curiosity."
He stepped closer, eyes fixed on Icarus.
"I want a single answer," Kaedor said. "Was it worth it? Is your curiosity satisfied now?"
Icarus did not answer. He remained still, gaze locked on Kaedor, fury visible in the tension of his jaw rather than in words. For several seconds he simply watched him, then his eyes shifted, drifting away from Kaedor and settling on the Void Creature instead.
