The music seemed to break apart his train of thought like constant distractions on the way to an important event. It had switched from trap techno music to smooth but sexy music to try and bring the mood to a more calm and almost seductive one. Because of this, Feiten honestly got distracted by the people really leaning into themselves. Torain noticed this and pulled her chair around the table some more to block the women falling over men, and men doing other quite nasty things. She made sure to also block Meran's sight if she decided to rise. "Well... uhm.. I don't really have any pressing questions about her.." He began. "Really? Nothing at all?" Loki was pushing his buttons. Feiten at first didn't like him, and now that he was trying to squeeze questions that he could answer out of him, made his impression of him worse. Feiten was interesting. He was always a curious person, but never found the confidence to actually ask his questions about the world. He had noticed that areas of the city had looked drastically different, and how some people were just hostile for no reason even though they would be in the most clean and kept parts of downtown. He could ask about those things, but his main target was Meran. He definitely knew that she had come from a bad place, and that Torain had mentioned that she was synthetic. "What does her being synthetic mean?" The question flew out of his mouth before he had a chance to process. Loki smiled, grateful for a very interesting question. "Now, I legally cannot go into too much detail for everybody's safety, so I'll keep it short and sweet." He leaned forward in his chair.

"'Synthetic' just means she was part of a project that was started about... what was it.. 10 years ago? Yeah, it was started by the Hawks to create superhuman soldiers so that they effectively kill us better." He grinned. Feiten's eyes widened slightly. Torain had mentioned this along the line of what he was saying, but didn't say that she was actually meant to be a soldier for a strange government attack unit. "So the weird spikes that she gets on her arms when she's scared..." "Are the results of the testing they did on her." Loki sighed. "Any more information about the project part I either don't know or can't tell you.. hehe." Loki looked like he did actually know the rest of the story, but for the fun of the game that he was playing on Feiten he did not disclose. "Anyways, we would call those spikes of hers a Sanguis. It basically just means a power, and with a little training she could honestly be invincible." Loki looked almost adoringly at Meran who was still composing herself. She felt his prying eyes on her form, so she looked up a bit through the jacket, an eyebrow raised. Feiten's upper lip tugged, very obviously didsplaying his digust of the man. Torain smirked in amusement. "It takes a while to actually like this one." She shook her head slightly. "It didn't take that long for me?" Kaisen spoke, the glass turned and to his lips. "Because you make friends with literally anyone, Kai." Kaisen looked off for a second in thought, and then shrugged his borad shoulders once and took a sip from his concoction.

"Well then.. if there's nothing else to be answered about Mei.." Feiten began. He didn't want to ask anything more about her that would possibly cause something to happen to her by Loki. He didn't know if he would try to kidnap her or try to fuck her because he was simply just that weird to him. "What about the sectioned areas? What are those? Because I definitely know that there's sections here." Torain put her bottle on the table. "Guess I forgot to tell you about that.." "Oh that's easy!" Loki smiled and clapped his long hands together. "So the easiest way to explain this is that the apartment and park and suburban areas are in a sector called Nabora! Nabora is basically where all seers who wish for a peaceful life live and act as humans." He smiled kindly. He really was one for emotional confusion.

"I should have told you this when you two came by, but my place is in Mergi... which is basically the red light district of this city. Drug deals, sex, cannibalism, trafficking, murders, clubs, more bars.. all that shit happens over there. It's literally every brick building you see when you go over there." Torain huffed. "I genuinely forgot that she was a literal child when you started asking shit." She admitted painfully. "Then why is Doimi living with you?" Meran chimed in. Kaisen smiled at her, happy that she was ok now. "She's a little brat who refused Rika's hospitality when she was younger and almost got her ass killed so I took her in and she never left even though I kicked her out." She grumbled, seemingly reminiscent about when they met. "Who's Rika?" The two siblings asked simultaneously. "She's an old seer lady that takes care of orphan seers when their parents get killed. Everyone under the age of 30 knows who she is hah." Kaisen explained. It made Meran slightly sad that he used the word 'when' rather than 'if'.
