"That isn't what I read," Knuckles noted, "No Guardian could take it on alone. Kabr, Praedyth, and Pahanin proved that. It would be impossible, even for Sarah Grey now."

>"[b]You would doubt the one whom ascended past your understanding? How could you? She is beyond you.[/b]"< >"[i]Beyond.[/i]"<
-
"You did not ascend before enetering the Vault of Glass!" Knuckled yelled, "And you did not ascend while fighting Atheon."
-
>"[i]No, I..[/i] -It was in the Vault. I got lost.. I think I died. My team thought I was gone for good, so they left.. right?"< >"[b]Yes.[/b]"< [i]Tytram was her master, it seemed. Her.. controller. She was a mere puppet - a slave, and an example.[/i]

"You did not fight them alone. I believe you did not," Jade said.

>"I.. I- [i]I did.[/i]<" [i]Celkym's voice would shift back, her being seemingly becoming more robotic, more twisted, more.. soulless.[/i]

"The f**k?" Jade asked.

>"[i]I took on the Vault, they weren't they. My fireteam, Judas - they left me to die, Titan. To die.."[/i]<

"Rather unfortunate...." Knuckles said.

>"[i]I was alone, and they abandoned me! They left me to the dark! The Vex perfected me![/i]"<

"I mean, c'mon. His name was Judas. You had to see that coming," Knuckles referenced.

>"...I loved him.." [i]The metallic tone would leave once more, as Celkym drooped a little.[/i] >"I.. I'm sorry, for ranting. It was stupid. I'm stupid. Christ.. should I just go?"< [i]Well, if someone wanted to cheer up the Vex..[/i]

>"Guess they're just as freakish as I am, though that.. takes a lot. Sorry, but.. could I meet them?"<
-
"Not freakish, just unlucky," Jade sighed.
-
>"Oh.. could we, um.. meet? That's assuming that I don't know them.. I've met the Greys, but still."<
-
"Yeah... you don't know the full story of any of them," Jade shrugged.
-
>"I know that. All I know is Mia has died.. permanently, and returned. That's it.. I don't claim to know their suffering."<
-
"Well... there's more to it. I hear," Jade said, "The Warlock, Sarah she's lived through a lot of shit."
-
>"Look, I.."< [i]Celkym coughed a little, awkwardly.[/i] >"...I don't think that we should talk about the Grey family behind their back. I mean, it's interesting, but.. I should try respecting them more. They were good to me."<
-
"You'd get along well with her, all I'm trying to say."
-
>"Perhaps. Maybe.. ...Thanks. For y'know, mentioning her. Do you think that we could meet her.. well, together? Not exactly a confident person. A.. p*ssy, I'd think you could call me. Not that you're vulgar, but.."< [i]Celkym shrugged, attempting to seem.. well, likable, perhaps it was.[/i]
-
"Yeah, we'll talk. Someometime."
