Title: Perspectives
Chapter: 3 - Iselia Ranch - Forcystus
Fandom: Tales of Symphonia
Characters: Forcystus, OC, mentions of Lloyd, Genis and Marble
Summary: Forcystus can kill two birds with one stone.
Notes: Here you go! Next is the first interlude, followed by Renegades! No idea when those will get written, though.
As he reviewed the tapes of the attack, Forcystus seethed with rage. How dare those little brats break the treaty and attack his men? He had three soldiers being treated for burns, and another two for concussions inflicted by the boy with the swords.
The boy with the swords...surveillance had identified him as Lloyd Irving. Technically, he didn't live in the village: patrols regularly observed him going back and forth along the forest path, out to the little house in the woods where a Dwarf lived. Forcystus had occasionally considered turning the Dwarf in to Cruxis as a runaway, but thought better of it. He wasn't causing the Ranch any harm, and having leverage over a skilled craftsman might come in handy one day.
But that was unrelated to the topic at hand. Living in the village proper or not, the Irving boy was still subject to Iselia's treaty, as was the half-elven boy who accompanied him. They would need to be taught a painful lesson about the consequences of their actions. Forcystus' eye narrowed as the boy's leap played on the tapes again. He was stronger than a young human should be, that was certain. Was it possible he had an Exsphere? But even that wouldn't explain it, unless he'd had more training than their observers could account for.
Or else... “Kyrian,” he turned to his aide abruptly. “Didn't Kvar lose his Angelus Project around here somewhere?”
“Yes, sir,” Kyrian nodded, and then realized what his lord was getting at. “You don't think...”
“I don't know.” Forcystus shook his head and turned away from the tapes. “These images aren't clear enough, I'd need to see him fight in person.” A thought occurred to him then: he could kill two birds with one stone. He smiled slowly, an expression full of malice, approving of the perfect irony. “...Find me that human woman they were visiting. I think I've come up with the perfect punishment for their disobedience.”
