[Like most others, Dominic hasn't had much sleep in the past few days. He's a bit refreshed now that he's finally gotten some rest, but there's still something that bugs him.

Creatures of shadow, can't be killed, a cold air, attacking mentally as well as physically--Dominic's never seen the Noctaere before, but he still remembers Cornelia's description of them.]

Even so, when someone's in trouble...

[unfearful.livejournal.com]

T-That doesn't mean they wouldn't help you as well...!

[hypnoun.livejournal.com]

Ah, no, you don't need to apologize for anything...
