Orion frowns. "I never had one, the land I protected…it would die with me, and it is very hard for me to die. A heir would have learned the wrong ways from me. I never was traditional, and how many Life Guardians play with blood and death?"
Sam nodded. "I've heard of heirless guardians. Though the only ones left that I know of guard dead and dying universes." Lillith looked at him, something concerned on her face.
"You wouldn't go heirless, would you? You wouldn't kick me out?" she asked, suddenly worrisome. Sam chuckled, shaking his head.
"No, I could never get rid of you. I don't think I could," he chuckled, and Lillith's smile returned
Orion smiles sadly. "I don't really have a universe anymore. I travel now, a vagabond if you will."
Sam's smile faded to a look of sympathetic sadness. "You really did have your mark removed," he said quietly. Lillith seemed a little upset too.
"You know what, we'll figure out a way to fix you Orion!" Lillith said with an air of confidence. "Cas's archives are huge, I bet there's something in there we could find to help you!" Cas nodded.
"There's certainly a possibility. After I inherited the god of wisdom's libraries there's a plethora of knowledge I have of yet to go through."
Smiling, Orion looks at the lot of them. "Y'all are to good to me. One the subject of getting fixed though…I ain't broken. Giving me a new mark would make me a new Guardian. I think I'mma stay like this, rather know who I am than change everything."
Sam nodded. "That's respectable." Arik cleared his throat, frowning a little.
"If you all are finished with the touchy-feely, I would suggest you prepare for tonight. You have two hours before the lower class gates open, and I would encourage you to be there promptly."
Orion gives an unsettling grin, showing off teeth just a little too sharp. "Will do, and with pleasure." Eyes flashing, the aura in the room steadily grows darker, fuller, more……c h a o t i c .
(well damn, Orion)

(Did you find it?)
(Yeah lmao)
(It was in writing prompts and a user wrote a sad story for a character they have and I legit cried)
Lata shivers slightly. The way Orion was acting was different and she wasn't sure she liked it. His sudden change along with Sam and the fact of being in an otherworldly place made her feel quite small and unimportant. Not having anything else to do, Lata summoned swirls of her magic, twisting and turning in creative and sparkling coils. Practicing her magic usually helped her focus and calm her mind, but there was that same small voice in the back of her mind. She shouldn't be here.
(highkey trying and failing to summon Des)
