Cipher: *pulls off a hood that was impossible to make out before. His face, the actual /outline/ of his head becomes clear. He's got eyes that could only really be described as "gold" and straight white hair he's got tamed in a short pony tail.* Relax, Yugi. We're the good guys. We're not after the Pharaoh, the Shadows, or the Millennium Items. We're just well informed. *offers his hand* You can actually call me Zuriel. Will you let Shadow here see to your wounds?

Yugi: *wants to trust, looking back and forth among them, one hand /locked/ on the chain of the Puzzle* ……..so far, everyone I’ve met who’s been well-informed is because they /are/ after the Pharaoh, the Shadows, or the Millennium Items. *aka why /else/ would they care know so much?* I’m sorry if I’m rude, but if you know so much, then I’m sure you understand.

Zuriel: I very much understand. We know because we were approached some months back by a party wanting us to retrieve the Millennium Items. After doing our research, we determined that the hiring party did not have the claim to the Items they suggested, and even if they had, trying to take them from you and the other bearers was suicidal under the best of circumstances.

Yugi: *small, rueful grin* I’m afraid that’d be true, yes. Especially the Millennium Ring. *studies them* So . . . you’re mercenaries, then?

Zuriel: *nods* In some respects. We're particular about our jobs. We're not out to rob or hurt anyone just to make money.

Runner: We get back what's been stolen, basically. *and assassinate people, but they don't need to go into that...right?*

Zuriel: *feels it's best to be completely honest with someone who can wield the Shadows...* We also take jobs to bring down certain...powers. Like this group that took you. What they're doing threatens the world, we'll not stand by and let it happen.

*Yugi starts to reply, nodding, but then Yami nudges at him. He agrees and the two switch places.*

Yami: *looks up at Zuriel* Understood. Are there any left of this group? *gestures back the way they came*

Zuriel: *meets Yami’s gaze...* Hello, Pharaoh. *he’s really good at reading people, no Yugi doesn’t /look/ different, but there are shifts in the way he carries himself that tell Zuriel all he needs to know.*  And yes, there are more to deal with before this group is taken down.  ...Do you intend to take a stand with us?

Zeran: *suddenly /gaping/ at Yugi/Yami...and frowning/squinting a bit...that’s...weird...*

Shadow: *will get Yami lying down somewhere and will start seeing to his wounds. He's quick and gentle in his work, but also does a good job.* I suggest you get some rest now. We'll go over more things in the morning. There are some beds back here. *will offer Yami a hand up and will show him the way.*
