They both turn and speak in a low murmur. Then Ginnies Father waves the runner away. He hugs the Red Box close to his chest as if trying to keep his heart from exploding out his chest.

The other Man stumbles a greeting, then tries to continue. Aceth glances down at the Red Box in his hands, then says bluntly, 'My daughter is dead.' The man halts his rambling in amazement. Then flustering in embarrassment he mumbles his condolences. Aceth just stares at him, in a flat emotionless voice he says coldly. 'Thank you, you will realize that I must now go inform my Wife that our child has been taken from us. You will address your concerns to this Hunter from SK Acquisitions, I have found them most effective. Good day.' He turns to go, then he rises the Red Box slightly to you.

He straightens up momentarily and clenches his jaw, 'I now must break the news to Martha.' He walks away slowly. The robed man stares after him in disbelief, anger suddenly flares in his face for an instant. Then vanishes. 'Losing a loved one is hard, all other concerns must pale before that.'
