Ideo sighed, and did something rather rare- he removed his left glove. Due to how little sun they saw, the skin of his hands was abnormally pale, almost translucent...but that wasn't all that was strange. When he turned his wrist over, almost shyly, there was a brand there.

"The pact mark hasn't faded. I think it means my contract is still upheld, but...he never gave me a name. Then again, I never asked." Ideo flexed his fingers, feeling a little exposed without the mark covered, but managed to persevere. "I was foolish when I called upon him. The book had said to put the pact mark on your body. I didn't realize until much later that I could have simply applied it to my clothing."

Aaaand he wonders why he got possessed by the malcontent of Makai?????
