Michael's head was already pounding before Asasiah appeared before the group. His fear is only amplified in the face of unknown, and even to Altiel, this power is unknown, but a look from Atiel's face also told Michael that something he was percieving was indeed wrong. Is it the Nephilim that's causing this? A swift look from Altiel to the Lady of the Rose Petal Voice, made him suddenly feel awkward, breaking his current fear. A delusional joke... was he delusional? Perhaps, and it wouldn't be the first time that he was, considering his connections to Babylon, which only grow stronger while closing the distance from where his lightest attacks, in Corinth, made his mind forcefully connect with Jez'ebel's. Perhaps at such a distance he was begining to haluacinate beauty where it does not rightfully belong, after all the sibyl's veiw of beauty was seen as disgusting by Michael at first... Regardless, these thoughts would have been reveiwed and reflected upon later in the face of the more prominant anger at the name 'Kasdeja'.

"I wouldn't know nor care where he is," Michael said and left it at that until the arrival of Asasiah, during which he took time to attempt to stand up and prepare himself for when she arrived. And her arrival produced an...odd reaction, even from Michael. He took into his mind, every feature that he could read through his senses. He was curious, not fearful. From her well tuned features to her voice and bloodied hands, she gave off the impression of someone who was...human...but not human at all, but this was much more obvious when heard of her name.

"She'll do. You can tell she's more than enough," he said, breaking his own silence to answer Mehetabel. Although fear drove his heart before, now resolve did. He preferred that Na'lsa didn't kill the Nephilim, already wary of his power. Now, however, there was a chance for a new power to take hold, and it was a power not yet turned against his interests. He had not taken the Nephilim's account on mental defense, but with the constant threat of death, he probably never would. However, he didn't think that Asasiah would kill him, and was therefore slightly more approachable then the Nephilim. Although, she liked fear, and ate the unresolved like candy, or so Michael observed, he was resolved to complete his quest. And an odd gut feeling told him that she was a better source than the nephilim.
