It's not the bloodlust that they have, and it's not for the thrill of it like the one they call hunter. Some would say it's to affirm my slight superiority complex. I'd say that's not entirely true, but perhaps some' His eyes widen at the word "Hunter", but he holds his tongue until Solomon is finished.

'So, Azarah is still kicking...' he murmurs, before looking Solomon in the eye. 'It seems a good enough reason to me. Testing your mettle is something I find admirable.'

He pauses a moment before continuing.

'Those who could be called truly destructive within the bounds of this city are the Nine First Heroes. Azarah the Hunter (though I hear he calls himself Asariel in this day and age), Scathách the Teacher, Gilgamesh the Golden King, Heracles the Child of Thunder, Chiron the Nurturer, Achilles the Rider, Hector the Spearman, Jeanne the Saber, and myself, Vladimir the Impaler. There are many more, but those will do to go on with.' Wait, are these the nine original metas? I'm confused. They have many names through the ages, but yes. The original nine are:

Asariel (Azarah being his Mesopotamian name), the first swordsmith.

Scathách, the legendary teacher of heroes in Irish myth.

Gilgamesh, the god-king of the _Epic of Gilgamesh_.

Heracles, the most famous of Greek heroes.

Chiron the centaur, teacher and foster father of the greatest Greek heroes.

Achilles, the deadliest Greek hero and their champion in the Trojan War.

Hector, the hero-prince of the Trojan War and the champion of Troy.

Jeanne d'Arc, better known as Joan of Arc, the holy virgin that led France to multiple victories in the Hundred Years War.

Vladimir III, also known as Vlad Tepes, Kazıklı Voyvoda, and the "Impaling Prince". Better known in the present day as "Count Dracula", though that is rather undeserved.
