STRYKER HARBRINGER ☣ COTC

A huff left the lion. Pessimistic as always. They weren't stuck here. Those that came here had done so by choice, minus the few slaves they had. Even so, Caesar and Stryker could of easily slipped back into a group or the neutral grounds. Animals could tell them to leave all they'd like. Rather than stand their ground, they came to the Coalition of the Condemned to avoid the trouble. That was their choice. Unlike Stryker though, the Cipher saw it as a damning fate, rather than an opportunity to make a new name for themselves. Pitiful.

The Kingpin tried to get on his level though. After all, he understood that they were far from prosperity. Their chances of seeing their former homes were few to none. “We’re both stuck here, but life is what you make of it, Spots,” he commented. Neon eyes looked over and he offered a light shrug. "With time, things will work out." How long until that day though? Or would karma take control and leave them in the dust? "I think if we both work together towards what we want-" Stryker's gaze narrowed and his brow furrowed. "-we'll prosper." That depended on if he could trust Caesar or not though. Undoubtedly, he was suspicious.

"Caesar," he reminisced. "I want to believe you came here in good faith." His head craned, horns jutting outwards in an almost threatening manner. "But we both know that isn't true... unless this is truly your last option." If that was confirmed, then the savannah cat would need to work for Stryker's trust. Hence, why they were talking. This was Stryker's last place to go, truly, but he did not want to admit it. The Pitt would never take him in, Elysium and Tanglewood would have exiled him on the spot, and The Typhoon's leader would slice him open. There was only so much he could do. Letting the Coalition of the Condemned die off wasn't one of them. If he was going to takeover new land, he was going to need all the miscreants from the mainland... and that included Caesar. [color=#00b400]"Are you willing to work towards what we both want, Caesar?"
