There is no repentance.

Characters: Enoch and anyone
Setting: All around the tower, Oct 24 until the end of the event (please note a day or range of days and floor in your subject line!)
Format: I'm starting in prose, but I'll match you
Summary: After two encounters, Enoch's finally succumbed completely(or nearly so) to his transformation's urges, going after people who he knows have sinned. Or those who do so in front of him...
Warnings: There will be violence if confronted with a known "sinner", maybe death?

It took a couple of encounters and a little over a week of time. But Enoch isn't hiding anymore. He wanders the stairs with his Arch out and held in one hand, his stride confident and purposeful. He has a stern look fixed on his face, though his eyes may at times appear troubled.

He's searching for sinners. He hasn't yet realized there are no other means of getting candy than stealing, which is a good thing; that would make everyone in a costume guilty of the sins of theft and knowingly condemning another to die. As it is, there are people he knows who he will attack on sight: Those who he knows have signed away their souls. Those who would take them. He who has stolen. He who has killed God. He who allies with a demon. They who are demons. And those who torture, harm children, attempt to kill - he makes a detour to a terminal for those before continuing his patrol.

But he isn't without some piece of himself left, as his sometimes-troubled eyes might hint. Somewhere inside, he doesn't want to kill. So he does all he can. He shouts a warning, the only warning that makes any sense to his warped mind.

"All you who have sinned, your time for judgment has come!"

"Why do you seek to judge those imprisoned here? No man or woman is free of sin. It would be best to simply slay all those here rather than provide warning."

No being was without sin, no mortal being in any case. She'd seen the souls of men laid bare before her as she collected souls, judged them on whether they were fit to fight for the gods. She'd taken them all though. Even one man who could only find a single good deed he'd ever performed in life.

"I see your intent now. You intend to seek out those who sin within your sights."

Sensible, in a way, but she feared for those who would do so. This tower appeared to be altering the minds of those here. Not everyone but enough people to warrant concern. Part of Lenneth wanted to stop him before he set out on this quest of his but the other half reminded her that she didn't know enough yet.

"And how do you intend to punish them when you find them?"

That was what worried her most, her biggest concern. Dare she interfere if it meant harm would come to others?

"Killing seems a bit extreme a way to punish sinners. When they come to a permanent death, they will still have to face their transgressions in life."

Perhaps Lenneth was just too forgiving, too compassionate a goddess. Perhaps Hrist would agree with Enoch's methods. Silmeria wouldn't.

"Why is it the only way?"

She was genuinely curious about his reasoning. Especially as she wasn't aware that he wasn't of his right mind. For a goddess who has wings herself, it's not strange to her.

"I'll assume you made such attempts already. You seem so sure of it, after all."

Not that she agrees. She doesn't notice that he seemed disturbed by his own words. She can start putting two and two together by now.

"Would you normally go out of your way to punish sinners here?"

"I see. You must resist then, however you possibly can!"

It was outside of her power to do anything to help. Even in Midgard or Asgard, there was nothing she could do to break such a spell.

"I will help you. Try to, if you ask it."

If only she understood how others worlds, their gods and angels, worked then she might understand that. She doesn't though. Lenneth only knows her own.

"Do not seek them out. Lock yourself away where you cannot find anything worth hurting someone over." Deep inside, Lenneth knows that it won't work. There was no harm in trying though.

He expression falls, disappointment and sadness mixing to darken her features.

"I wish that there were some other suggestion I can make."
