What brought him to this place so far from the world of the Shinigami's Rukongai and Seireitei? Well, something left from the war that wound hinder the progress of the Vandenreich. Something that was his responsibility was needing handling. Sterben the son of Yhwach was still out here after all in a deep stasis perhaps dead even. It was a question or perhaps his duty to handle this matter with the utmost care. The situation here was a peace between the Soul Society and Vandenreich was an uneasy thing he imagined. No one knew about Sterben's location anymore. Not even the new leader was aware of his existence. Only Strategist and Hulderic were entirely aware of Yhwach's sick desire. The desire to create a weapon capable of wiping out entire Shinigami cities and places without effort. He did find something with Sterben that much was true as Ghislain walked towards it. Did he harden his heart and kill the child? Was that the answer to this to finally end Yhwach's wretched bloodline? His fingers softly along his pendant.
His fingers slowly released the pendant and his eyes drifted to a mountain structure that seemed rather large. Remembering this nightmare like the location wasn't hard. The battlefield's climax was met here as he recalled. Radioactive was unleashed around this area and slaughtered so many of them. War wasn't really a good word for what happened here it was a foolish choice that leads to annihilation. His hand waved across the air as the reishi around the mountain shattered on a certain piece. Sitting in a carbonite stone like stasis was a boy's body. Long dark hair and closed eyes his slender frame almost seemed lithe. His eyes stared at the boy stuck in the gemstone like substance. He just stared at the boy sleeping remembering that moment when the choice was made. When it was decided he couldn't be controlled and perhaps would kill even the Quincy. They created a destroyer instead of a savior, that was a crime as he sighed softly. Did he have the right to rob this child of a life?
That was something to think about as well if he woke the child up. What would come of that, would it be anger against those who imprisoned him? He had no sway over the child any longer. The blood of the Emperor was taken from the Quincy around the world. No longer could they be connected to him. But with Sterben that carried risks beyond what one could comprehend. Anti-Matter was the boy's power and it was an extremely dangerous power. He'd watched the boy killed his creators and destroy the moment he came too. Controlling him was impossible, he was impulsive and destructive. But was that his choice as the child of him? Did he really have that right to end a life? Ghislain who tried so hard to not stain his hands with blood. He sat down on a rock as he stared at the child now. the ominous power drifting out seemed to feel nearly demonic. This child was unsettling even asleep as he felt chills on his shoulders and neck. Slowly he brought a pocket watch from his coat and opened it. Glancing down at the photo of his wife and their son.
This didn't make choices easier but it helped him concentrate and think on the situation. Ghislain's family line still was around within Germany. He was a legendary figure among them who helped set their business up. Closing the locked up he sighed standing up as a small tear trailed down his cheek. "I'm sorry Sterben, you were born as a berserker and given no choice. You didn't get to decide to be a doctor or a lawyer. You weren't given a happy childhood or a chance to be a kid. I don't know what else I can do here..if you awaken and fracture this peace that she is trying so hard for..when I could have done something..I can't forgive myself for that.." He raised his hand up slowly as he lowered it as reishi surged to it. To destroy the boy or not was a question that couldn't be answered in a singluar moment. Sterben wouldn't see reason when he woke he knew it. His bloodlust would require a sacrifice to sate it.
Maybe as a last act of kindness, he could tell Sterben before his choice what became of their race. What destiny awaited the father who betrayed him and so much more.
