Reveler - Worthless (9/22)

[19:21] The serpent takes a deep breath, shuddering faintly.

He got rid of the ashed outer layers of Perseus' throat. A bit bug-eyed, more than a little dazed, he's recovering idly as the alchemical alembic and filters are going through a thorough rinse cycle in the tower, breathing uneasily.

Tanya's work was a nice distraction.

Unfortunately, it was over too quickly.

His secondary tongue tastes the air, parting as he breathes in deeply. Quietly, he smells-

...

Blood...?

His head tilts, cocking as he tastes injury on the wind-

Or what he thinks is.

Slowly, he slides up towards Reveler- Keeping a slight distance, though his hand raises.

"... Are you damaged?"

It's a soft, gentle inquiry. The demon's thrumming baritone is echoed in that tender tenor, the only likely pleasing aspect of the demon's appearance.
(Eiphraem Kang)
[19:21] Lusion says, "I saw her around Deseti last time."
[19:23] Standing around Crafthold after wandering far from wherever the rest of her family was, the young Wick, daughter of J, the business man, found herself in her own little world.

"Sparks," she said to herself while standing around and conjuring fire magic. The Kitsune couldn't help but notice a man nearby staring at her.

"What are you looking at? I'll tell my dad on you! He's a business man!"

The look on the Wick's youngest child's face was one of awkwardness.
(Blaze Wick)
[19:25] A long drawn out silence enstill the Ookami to simply prolong his glare, and for one reason or another he eventually shifts his eyes away, his galre retreating. It took him a moment to understand that while she resembled his brother who refused to wear pants, she was also a child.

"..Nothing," he murmurs.
(Lusion)
[19:26] Blaze Wick exclaims, "Then don't rubberneck, Mr.!"
[19:26] The creature stands near their master, the collar gone from last viewing. Shard-like teeth grinded against each other as around his feet a small firey Daemon darted around. Blood oozed from thick streams from his fingernails and his eyes, but it now seemed almost more like warpaint then something that caused pain. A faint whisper is responded to now and again, plaguing his mind.

"Is of fine." Half lidded hazel eyes look to the Serpent. "Is of injury long time ago from vampire. Never was of stopping bleeding. But is not sluggish like was then."

He purses his lips. "Is of needing runescribe if Crafthold is of having one. Is also of needing to unload. Can be of using Poppylus?"
(Reveler)
[19:27] Shiva Vel'Heim says, "<*has a gapping hole at its core*> "
[19:27] Shiva has a gapping hole at its core
(Shiva Vel'Heim)
[19:27] Tanya says, "UNIT"
[19:27] Shiva Vel'Heim says, "Runescriber, would be. For I."
[19:27] Reunan rubbed the deep blackened scar on his right arm with the metal hand of his left. He flexed and winced. He needed to craft another attachment, something to adorn his right shoulder, much like the mythril plate on his left rotary cuff, the wires attached to what little flesh there was attached to the extended prosthetic. The man was slowly becoming more and more a work of his own design. Everyone was keen on removing entire BLOODY arms, and not hands.

His eyes move over to Blaze Wick, the heck was she doing casting flames in the public like that? He perks a brow as a small pulse of exorcising energy flowed outwards.

"Please be careful with that magic, don't want you to hurt yourself.." He seemed genuinely concerned for someone he just met and didn't even know a single thing about. His right hand then moving to the satchel at his side, pulling free a small tool, adjusting a few things on his left arm.
(Reunan Volos)
[19:27] The horned man wasn't exactly sure who just went up to him, sanguine eyes darting towards the rifle user - only being able to make out the faint outline of her eyes through the hazy lenses.

Yet - atleast it was someone who didn't ask why he had tall horns for once..

Go ahead and ask.." she seemed very.. off balance - perhaps they are a foreigner.

Or horribly diseased?

That was a pretty think gasmask but Dan would entertain this for now, reclining backwards as gravity magic kept him afloat.
(Dan Karadin)
[19:28] Reveler says, "-he bobs his head- Would be for Master."
[19:28] Abbigail Anilis whispers something.
[19:29] Reunan Volos says, "<By the stars that is a large woman...>"
[19:30] Lusion says, "-- Oh, shit. I almost forgot."
[19:30] Reunan is an ookami.
(Reunan Volos)
[19:30] Reunan is still an ookami and will lick your FACE.
(Reunan Volos)
[19:32] "Uhh.. possibly dead - or atleast their brother is."

He just wasn't personally sure which Yugao died.. or particularly cared. Simply shrugging off the question before looking over his shoulder, the depressed giant was still there..

"Anyways.. is that all - err.. Lady?"

As far as he could tell.
(Dan Karadin)
[19:34] "Yes I can do so," He murmurs softly. "I could get something- And we may even have a scroll on hand. What would you require?"

A pause. The serpent's earfins prick forwards, slightly.

His face is more pensive and less expressive than the rest of his body, but his lips downturn. While his ears remain forward tilted, they've lowered slightly. Slitted eyes peer under the hood, taking in every unpleasant sound of the teeth moving.

"... Are you certain you would not want me to take a look, upon you?"

The serpent sways gently on his lower body, a hand reaching up quietly- Though that massive, calloused hand and it's blackened tips simply twitches idly within the air.

"I could try to repair you, and figure out what the issue is."

Man, Shiva was probably fine.

Sanctuary was like that for a week and didn't even notice.
(Eiphraem Kang)
[19:34] Rai would slowly move out of the way because it looked as though he woke up at the wrong time and the wrong place. There seemed to be a violent spirit in the air for some reason, he wasn't even sure if there was anything going, wiping the cold out of his eye trying to get out the way. Walking off he tripped over the being's sword that was in front of him, he wasn't fully awoke, accidently his arms went wailing into the air, toward the mage. Who'd staff looked as though it pertained a gem that looked as though it had Blood qualities, if he did not move Rai's hand hit the top of his head where he hood rested.
(Raiojin)
[19:35] Lusion whispers tenderly into Eiphraem's ear-flap. It's nothing intimate, he just didn't want to hold up his current conversation.
(Lusion)
[19:35] "I won't hurt myself, Mr.! I've learned plenty of magic from my father and older brothers! I can handle it myself, but thanks for the concern!"

Blaze nods her head, smiles, and eyes the strange mechanical units of his replaced limbs that he seemed to be adjusting with a tool. The young girl steps forward to get a closer view. The teen's ears twitch and she cants her head curiously.

"Machinery for limbs, huh? I see that far too often. Lots of people obsess over maiming others. I just don't get it. How did you lose your limbs?"
(Blaze Wick)
[19:35] Lusion whispers something.
[19:35] Lusion whispers something.
[19:36] "Are.. you okay?"

He'd just stare at the masked woman.. perhaps a bit concerned at how slow she seemed.

But he wasn't going to comment much further on that fact. "She occasionally comes around.. Kitai, more hunting the people that kill 'er kid."
(Dan Karadin)
[19:36] Eiphraem Kang whispers something.
[19:37] Lusion whispers something.
[19:37] Lusion whispers something.
[19:37] Eiphraem Kang whispers something.
[19:37] Lusion whispers something.
[19:37] Eiphraem points him over towards Dan...!
(Eiphraem Kang)
[19:37] Ashley whispers something.
[19:37] Lusion whispers something.
[19:37] Eiphraem Kang whispers something.
[19:37] Eiphraem Kang whispers something.
[19:37] Eiphraem Kang whispers something.
[19:38] Eiphraem Kang whispers something.
[19:38] Dan Karadin says, "Right.. farewell."
[19:38] Lusion whispers something.
[19:38] Eiphraem Kang whispers something.
[19:38] Eiphraem Kang whispers something.
[19:38] Reunan points first at the arm currently being worked on. His face looked exhausted, bags under his eyes, yet still he smiled, taking a small pride in where the injuries came from.

"My left arm was taken from me by an assassin who failed to take my life twice. My right arm was fighting one of the Sarradian leaders of Deseti I think, he really shocked it bad.. I still need to make a pain inhibitor for it.. My left leg was lost in an Honor duel that was spurn from threats of death. Then there is the.. light headedness that came from the spores of a dryad.. that one will go away in time.. these others.. I made the prosthetics myself."
(Reunan Volos)
[19:38] Lusion whispers something.
[19:38] Lusion whispers something.
[19:39] Eiphraem Kang whispers something.
[19:39] Abbigail glared at the strange talking herson..
(Abbigail Anilis)
[19:39] Lusion whispers something.
[19:39] "Master is of having hole in her chest. Is not of good. More time staring at hole is less time look at Reveler." He rolled his shoulder, teeth grinding and soon picked at with sharp fingernails. Underneath the hood are a myriad of things.

A youthful face, almost handsome. The blood like warpaint. And shadows that seemed darker due to illusionary magic. His hand extends, and vines move under the surface, soon breaking skin as two stems of Poppylus emerge from within the body, growing out it like it were soil.

"Can be of looking if is wanting. Reveler is always of enjoying being watched. Repairs are of useful. Is of needing to make voice in head silent."
(Reveler)
[19:39] {Item} You drop Poppylus x2.
[19:39] Reunan Volos says, "Ashley, please come here."
[19:39] Abbigail Anilis says, "Why do you talk that way.."
[19:39] Shiva Vel'Heim says, "Be handled, I can. Wait."
[19:39] Ashley says, "Okay..."
[19:40] Reunan Volos whispers something.
[19:40] Ashley says, "Several pieces.."
[19:40] Reunan Volos whispers something.
[19:40] Lusion glances towards Dan for a moment, then ahead.
(Lusion)
[19:40] Ashley says, "Several... "
[19:40] Ashley nods quietly.
(Ashley)
[19:40] Ashley says, "And fifteen orchilacum..."
[19:40] Okoto Iya says, "Ahaa... nthaat's a lotta rock. Rocks..."
[19:41] Ashley says, "Yeah..."
[19:41] Okoto Iya exclaims, "Yeaaa!!"
[19:41] Okoto Iya exclaims, "Woooo!!"
[19:41] Reunan rubs his face a moment.. of course she wouldn't count, though he grins and pulls out a bag of coin. "How much for the mythril?"
(Reunan Volos)
[19:41] Ashley says, "Five hundred and sixty.."
[19:41] Ashley nods softly.
(Ashley)
[19:42] Pluto holds Qiao's hand.
(Pluto)
[19:42] Ashley says, "T-thank you Reu.."
[19:42] Ashley offers a weak smile. Woah, Ashley smiled. End of the world.
(Ashley)
[19:42] "That's a lot of injuries. How do you even make a prosthetic limb? Is it hard? What does it require? Oh, can you show me? I love learning new things!"

Blaze steps forward again to get an even closer view.

"My dad can do things with runes, but I haven't asked him anything about them. I think that's how you make them," she states and continues, "but you seem to be an expert, so can you teach me all about that stuff and uh.. maybe more?!"
(Blaze Wick)
[19:42] Reunan reaches up and pats Ashley's back. "Anything for a friend.. If you know where to buy more mythril, I'll pay you to grab as much as you can."
(Reunan Volos)
[19:42] Ashley says, "Okay... I'll see what I can do."
[19:42] Forlog says, "Hnggg..."
[19:42] Okoto Iya says, "Heyyy- yn' oh."
[19:42] Reunan Volos says, "Ashely."
[19:42] Reunan Volos says, "Be safe. "
[19:43] Okoto Iya says, "Y'kno- g- you're flying..."
[19:43] Ashley says, "I'll.. Try.."
[19:43] Forlog whispers something.
[19:44] Dan Karadin says, ">."
[19:44] Takuto Hideaki whispers something.
[19:44] Forlog whispers something.
[19:44] Takuto Hideaki whispers something.
[19:45] Forlog whispers something.
[19:45] Takuto Hideaki whispers something.
[19:45] Forlog whispers something.
[19:46] Forlog whispers something.
[19:49] Reunan then turns to Blaze and rubs his chin a moment. The man was practically in his pajamas, the bland and dirty under cloths that ensured his modesty, yet still showed off his fitness, the ookami was swole. Perhaps not the strongest person here, but he could lift a good metric ton of weight with minimal effort. With maximum? He was pretty sure he could rip a building off it's damn foundation.

"Well, creating the prosthetics lies up to the blacksmith. I custom built each of these to counteract the injuries I got.. One such is obsolete now, due to my left arm being missing, but I cannot remove it as it's melded into my mana circuits. Made my arm from scratch, my leg too. I had the parts for a pain inhibitor for my right arm, but the needs of others come before my own, and Lady Shiva is stronger than I am, her contributions are greater in this time of need."

He stretches his left arm, gritting his teeth through the pain, but he needed to stretch it something fierce.. it itched as always.

"If you want a real skilled runescribe to train under, Seek out Tez, he's a nagual married to Iosefka, onyx skinned Neries girl. Or lady Shiva, however lady Shiva is an archon and well.. Nothing without it's costs. There is also Lauren, who I have not seen in some time.. other than those I'm not quite sure.. I am a blacksmith myself and well.. being a soldier I tend to get injured a lot."
(Reunan Volos)
[19:54] "I'll call upon them right now..."

A tap to the front of his pocket. An indescipherable buzz to the senses of the archons and demontouched, as the telepathy rings out through the air from the transceiver.

He slithers forwards- Cautiously, curiously. His lips and their Glasgow smile twitch, and his earfis are angled down but pricked forwards. He very, very hesitantly takes the poppylus constrained within the body, stuffing it away into his satchel-

Before he focuses back up.

The distance between them is closed, dewy blades of grass bending, mist coming closer...

Fingers try to gently touch at Reveller's blood-stained face, the flowing scarlet giving a pleasant shiver down the self-denied demon's spine. Blackened claws stroke over the flesh, and two thumbs easily able to dwarf an eye each try to brace right under the eyelid-

Water magic softly tingles and thrums through Reveller's skin, despite the disconnect- The demon may have been considered an incompetent runt at many things, but while he couldn't MANIPULATE blood well-

Feeling out the liquid and it's paths underneath the skin were within that overlap of the discipline for the experienced beast.

He murmurs curiously at him- Softer.
(Eiphraem Kang)
[19:54] As Abby watches the movement beneath the surface of the persons hand, she saw two poppylus emerge from his skin as if the mans body were made of soil.

A dryad..

The only place she knew that Dryads came from, was Gehenna, and the only places she knew in Gehenna? Deseti and Vindicia. Since the leader of Deseti told her that he was taking her back to Vindicia, and that they were his people, she assumed they were one in the same. She was not at all happy to meet another of the people who tried to capture her and cleanse her.

Abbigail began to reach for her staff, the air around her hand crystalizing and reflecting light off of the newly formed ice crystals that hung in the air as if time itself were frozen.

The instant her hand touched her staff, the shards of ice fell to the ground. A moment later, Abbigail pulled her staff out infront of her. As the base of it touched the ground, the ground beneath her quickly became coated in a thick layer of frost, causing the grass beneath her to bend from the weight.

"Vindician… You should leave... before I end your sorry existence..." she said, her words slow and seemingly calculated.

The entire time her eyes were darting around the dryad's body, as if she were analyzing him, studying his body for any potential weaknesses.

She then addressed Eiphraem.

"Eiphraem, I ask of you, please do not aid this man, there is no feasible reason for us to aid people who are attacking us."

In truth Abbigail expected Eiphraem to demand she not attack the man, or force her to put away her staff, she felt that Eiphraem would rather hug the enemy, until such a time that they began to stab him directly in the chest, than to actually fight against them..


(Abbigail Anilis)
[19:56] Abbigail forgot to note that her Reika lines were glowing intensely.
(Abbigail Anilis)
[19:56] Reunan Volos asks, "I swear abbigail will get herself killed attacking everyone like that.. Ashley, I can smell you're back, any luck?"
[19:56] Ashley says, "Oh.. I never left.. Sorry.."
[19:57] Reunan Volos asks, "Oh. That's fine. Do you wish to talk?"
[19:57] Ashley says, "No just.. Tired, is all.. Have gifts for uh, a friend.."
[19:57] Dan Karadin asks, "...Ostrava, why are you naked?"
[19:58] Blaze wasn't sure what obsolete meant, but from the context clues of his statement, she could make assumptions for its definition. Neither did she have any idea who 'Lady Shiva' was. The kitsune was quite new to the area of Crafthold. Vaguely.

"That makes sense, sir," she stated, glancing her jade colored eyes around the plaza to get familiar with their faces.

"Don't know who Lady Shiva is, or any of the others.. or whatever the heck an archon is. That sounds freaky weird!"

Blaze returns her sight back to the ookami and slides her sight down towards his worked on limbs.

"I'll try to figure out who they are and talk to them about runes and the likes of them! Thanks!"

With that, the kitsune begins to skip away towards the woman with blood wings protruding from her back.
(Blaze Wick)
[19:58] Ashley says, "He vanished.. As if.. He never existed."
[19:58] Reunan gives a small wave towards Blaze as she walked off.
(Reunan Volos)
[19:58] Reunan Volos says, "Existence is meaningless like that, sometimes."
[19:59] Dan Karadin says, "Odd.. perhaps he didn't."
[19:59] Ashley says, "Yeah..."
[19:59] Reunan Volos whispers something.
[19:59] Reunan murmurs, mostly out of respect for current conversations.
(Reunan Volos)
[19:59] Ashley whispers something.
[20:00] Reunan Volos whispers something.
[20:00] Shiva Vel'Heim asks, "Oh, runescriber. In time. Yes?"
[20:00] Tezoxochel Coza says, "... Uh huh? Show me the damage."
[20:00] Ashley whispers something.
[20:00] Ashley whispers something.
[20:00] * You have been awarded 1 Roleplay Points! *
[20:00] Reunan Volos whispers something.
[20:00] Ashley whispers something.
[20:01] Ashley whispers something.
[20:01] Reunan Volos whispers something.
[20:01] Ashley whispers something.
[20:01] Ashley whispers something.
[20:02] Reunan Volos whispers something.
[20:02] Reveler remains still as the Archon approached, only a widening of his eyes, and a vibration of the pupils as fingers pressed into his skin. The river of blood does not stop at the tips of fingers lingering on them, but a small cackle cane be heard as he notices the Archon shiver. Reveler's finger moves to his bloodied face, index finger dipped into the bloody stream. The liquid is brought to towards Eiraphrem.

"Is of wanting a taste?"

He does not fear. He does not move. The water magic tingles at his skin, and the paths of his blood can be detected. It is an odd thing. There are faint signs of Ghoulification, but not that he was truly turned. The opposite, as if the small taste had been intended to get him hooked and break him over years. Only that it failed.

His eyes hover on the Serpent, not looking at the Oscuri as she took out her staff. The words are barely reacted to, as if far more interest was held in the archon ahead.

"Isnot of Vindician."
(Reveler)
[20:04] Descending from the ground. The demon was eager to finally find its form. . . Partially recovered. In all its existence thus far. It had finally been slain a grievous wound since its ascension.

Like a robe, the Ethereal demon slip off the armor from its torso to reveal damaged porcelain flesh. Droplets of occultism fumed out without the casing of the armor.

"Is. . . Unpleasant feeling. Yes? Like. . . An empty stomach." Both its hands reaching the hole where the enormous spike had punctured it.

All the while it fiddled with its wound, long hair draped over, concealing most its form. "This wound. . . I-I cannot use my arts to recovery from it. . . To /restore/ my flesh. Please. I need you to apply this unique kit turned to dust. Yes? It's prosperities will allow me bypass much of this hinderance."

Just an average day. . .

Patiently it waited now. Hoping to. At the veryleast. /Look/ to be in perfect condition. Even should its innards still tussle and toil in pain.
(Shiva Vel'Heim)
[20:04] Reunan raises a wall of modesty between himself and shiva's visage.
(Reunan Volos)
[20:08] Oya waits, standing aside to watch the crowd as she'd been tasked with a mission of sort.

Waiting for everyone, a simple while now, she would be cautious as to not disturb the upperclassmen demons from their buiseness as she'd been told over the past.

Her upbringing wouldn't let her simply halt their conversation, but curiousity was getting the best of her as she eagerly listened.

It seems, not even the sight of the blood and occult would turn her head away. A morbid fascination brought toward it all the same, then hushered away.

Her mind had to focus onto a simple task... Repeating it over and over in her mind, the two opaque and dark eyes of Oya scans the crowd.
(Oya Qui'zti)
[20:09] Reunan Volos whispers something.
[20:09] Ashley whispers something.
[20:10] Reunan Volos whispers something.
[20:10] Reunan checks his coin pouch.
(Reunan Volos)
[20:10] Ashley whispers something.
[20:10] Ashley nods!
(Ashley)
[20:11] Reunan Volos says, ". . ."
[20:11] Reunan stares forward and then looks over at Ashley.
(Reunan Volos)
[20:11] Reunan Volos whispers something.
[20:11] Reunan Volos whispers something.
[20:11] Ashley blinks, sniffling as she looks somewhat perplexed, before nodding her head at the Ookami.
(Ashley)
[20:11] Ashley says, "I will be back in a bit..."
[20:11] Reunan Volos says, "Alright. Be safe."
[20:11] He sort of fixed a similar injury. Very similar. Sanctuary once had the same problem. Demons and their whole "getting holes blown out of them" typicalities, he swears...

Tezoxochel fixes up a "core" out of the prosthetic kit in makeshift, implanting a small rune-battery of mithril and threaded orchialcum around the edges of deeply engraved writes that'll likely be consumed over time that accelerates the Archon's immense magical capabilities and converts them into a pseudo-natural healing state. A little touch of time warp, occult mend, and a lot of binding to his inner circuitry's innate flow.

It burns up before the damage is ever fully undone, of course. But that's because it's mithril. For the external of the wound, temporary plates are makeshifted to cover either side with scraps and remains of mithril in thin plating. Ideally, the hole will close itself. But maybe not? Doesn't really matter.

This is all just fluff. Who really cares. He fixes Shiva.
(Tezoxochel Coza)
[20:11] Reunan seems down right perpleexed himself.
(Reunan Volos)
[20:12] Reunan Volos says, "Welcome back, Ashley."
[20:12] "No. Thank, you." Stilted. Insincere. For a moment, Eiphraem gets distracted from his work- The flow of magic quavers and stops, as he stares at the drops-

He tries to focus. Very, hard.

With his hands in place, Eiphraem continues. It was a bit easier to resist almost primally BECAUSE of that lack of fear.

Fear was the diet of any demon- Not merely ones intended to drain their prey dry and devour them whole, if they were true to their design.

Even so, with both hands 'occupied', Eiphraem doesn't push the finger away.

It was sort of a stressful day.

"Do you mind holding for a moment?" He tries to press onwards. To do his best. "I think I can detect the breakages and flow directions. I can be back in a moment with anaesthetic, a circuit corrector, and some regenerative poulticing..." Brows furrow, those slitted pupils in those chartreuse eyes that defied the red of the others of his kin tryingto focus.

The oscuri's words make his left earfin tilt back-

"Ezmara is not our enemy, but even so, this is not a Cruxati. This is... Shiva's human." He speaks it very slowly- As though not sure what to make of the statement.

He was still forming an opinion.
(Eiphraem Kang)
[20:12] Shiva Vel'Heim says, "Kang is not, incorrect.~"
[20:13] Dan Karadin asks, "Shiva's human..? Are we pets now?"
[20:13] Shiva Vel'Heim says, "If you want to be."
[20:13] Eiphraem Kang says, "... I mean. I have many humans. You are like one of my humans, even if you are Lord Illaron's. I like that."
[20:14] Eiphraem Kang says, "I like all of my humans, they are amazing."
[20:14] Reunan Volos says, "Thank you.. Eiphraem."
[20:14] Dan Karadin says, "..That was amazingly endearing, believe it or not."
[20:14] Dan Karadin says, "Thanks, Eiphraem."
[20:15] Ashley says, "Oh... I must.. Not be one then."
[20:15] Ashley is a miserable moira about it all.
(Ashley)
[20:15] Reunan actually started to look a bit.. uplifted, despite all that has occured.
(Reunan Volos)
[20:16] Reunan Volos says, "You're under his protection, Ashley. You're one of his so long as you keep being his friend."
[20:16] Reunan reaches up to play with ashley's hair. Ooker tail starting to wag slowly.
(Reunan Volos)
[20:16] As the Dryad stated it was not Vindician, Abbigail shook her head, its statement did nothing to get her to put away her staff, for she felt it was just a lie. One used to make others complacent in their endeavors and allow it to gain access to something it otherwise would not have.

The air around Abbigail continued to cool as the layer of frost beneath her continued to grow thicker and thicker, luckily for others, she knew how to keep her magic withheld otherwise things might get a bit nippy for them.

If Eiphraem would not attempt to stop her at all, the dryad would quickly find three large shards of ice cascading towards him from the end of her staff, she hadn't needed to move a muscle to do such a simplistic spell.

However it was exactly what Eiphraem did, since the dryad was one of Shiva's, and Abbigail respected Shiva, at least respected the fact that Shiva could kick the everliving shit out of her, she frost began to die down and she put her staff away.
(Abbigail Anilis)
[20:17] Abbigail Anilis says, "Very well, I will not destroy him. You can thank me later."
[20:17] The sensations that came next after the restoration process were to begin. Were nothing, but utter sensations of chaos as the ebon flow of life surrounding the archon would begin to waver.

Meager life-forces that is. Grass and flowers. Plifered for the archons own recovery. Sealing away at the wound.

And back into its armor.

"Is feeling. . . Much better now. Yes? Am glad to see as well. That duo has been making much progress on tome. My defeat against. Sibri was. . . Unfortunate. Though in due time. I will return to them as a completely new force with said tome."

Exhaling a sigh of relief, mainly at the recovery of the wound. If only. . . It hadn't still felt the straining existence of another tied to its being.
(Shiva Vel'Heim)
[20:17] Ashley hiccups as her hair is played with. Her shoulders begin to slump more as she yawns softly. Her hair is.. A greasy, dirty mess. He'll need to wash his hands after that.
(Ashley)
[20:18] Reunan luckily used his metal left hand. Though he lowers his hand after a short messy messing. "You need to wash your hair, Ashley.. or I'll have to clean it again.."
(Reunan Volos)
[20:18] Reunan Volos whispers something.
[20:19] Ashley smells like sweat, blood and like a rotting corpse. So the answer on if she's bathed is a big fat 'no'.

[20:19] Ashley whispers something.
[20:19] Oya emits a short hum, before slipping through a small inquiry. Her tone being rather surreal at that, it nearly echoes into a hum as she speaks.

"If I may be forgiven, I have words to announce, great ones."

A shaky breath is drawn from the Sirenian, almost as if a bit tense from interrupting everyone there for the small speech she had to do.

Waiting, she would try to check if anyone was to scold or correct her, standing tall in place with her hands held befre her.

[20:19] Reunan Volos whispers something.
[20:20] Reunan looks over at Ashley slowly.

[20:21] Ashley shakes her head.
(Ashley)
[20:21] "Khiii. Is of disappointed. More for Reveler." The bloodied finger moves from Eiphraem back to the Dryad, his maw opening and vine tongue licking at the crimson. His eye only flickers to his right, gazing upon the injured core of his master, as his tongue slathers his finger, then he looks back to Eiphraem.

"Can be of holding still." His hands are lowered and he remains true to his word. "Is of knowing how to be of making things be feeling? Has not of felt own heartbeat since injury. Is knowing it is still there, but is not of able to feel it of self." The descriptive words go over his head, and he just listens.

"Was of Cruxati. But Cruxati is of weak, and corrupted. Is of letting Wrath dog harm own. So is wanting to be of purging Cruxati of impurities.

Is of Shiva's trophy. And Champion. Shiva's human." He bobs his head.

Three large shards of ice are thrown, and a malefic force weighs down to knock them off course. His gaze finally leaves what his interest is on, to look at the OScuri.

"Khiii. Is not of caring for things of little value. Shoo." The burning fire Daemon around his feet scampers closer, ready to fight. He did not take his staff, but the malice hangs in the air as the ends of his mouth curl up.

"Or is allowed to be playing with?"
(Reveler)
[20:21] Ashley whispers something.
[20:21] Reunan lets out a slow sigh.

[20:23] Tezoxochel sniffs, slipping his hands into his pockets and offerign a shrug beforebeing pointed towards returning ot the tower.
(Tezoxochel Coza)
[20:23] Reunan reaches up and rubs his face.. this was more frustrating than it should be.
(Reunan Volos)
[20:23] Ashley notices the gesture and begins to slouch, looking more and more miserable.
(Ashley)
[20:24] Aaaand there it was. As soon as Reveler called her of little value, Abbigail shot forth, though in reality, Eiphraem was more than fast enough to grab her and stop her.

Even with that fact, the frost shot downwards causing the grass in the area around her to freeze.

"The fuck did you just say you worthless piece of fucking garbage, I'll freeze your entire body and slowly break you apart you stupid son of a bitch. I will fucking destroy you!"

She shouted, regardless of wether or not Eiphraem or anyone else actually stopped her.
(Abbigail Anilis)
[20:25] Ashley says, "That was loud.."
[20:25] sparkle sparkle ice ice?
(Abbigail Anilis)
[20:25] That the people would hear her out or not, the Sirenian would still make her short announcement.

One hand brought to her torax, the other to her back, she stands tall and begin to hum the words and echoes of her announcement. Her voice, resonate in a gentle tone, but the words themselves had great meaning in the world's internal strife and politics nevertheless.

"Lucien V. Voss, has claimed the caves due north, in the name of Apropriya and his kin.

Tresspassers shall be killed, the generous one has stated."

Closing her eyes slowly, and opening them again, the two perfectly black spheres would settle over Eiphraem and the others... A bit uneasy clearly, for she simply appeared both young and uneasy of the task she was afixed.

[20:32] Pluto whispers something.
[20:33] Well.

That was twofold.

"Ah..."

"How bold and troublesome that is."

Softly- If Reveller asked and Abigail charged-

The serpent merely steps out of the way.

"No killing," Is the only thing he utters-

Trying to quickly go for the medicine.
(Eiphraem Kang)
[20:33] Eiphraem presses a small, pungent bottle into Ayamur's hands, as he goes past.

[20:33] Tanya whispers something.
[20:34] Haku whispers something.
[20:34] Ashley whispers something.
[20:34] Reunan Volos says, "Dan.. Omaiwa mo shinderu."
[20:34] Ayamur takes the potion in hand- … he's looking surprised like, half entranced by the look of the potion and half interested in the gathering ahead of him. "Oh, medicine-" He says cheerily, still sore and battered; he hoped the potion would renew his strength!

But first, he holds out some reagents for Eiphraem. "Here's some stuff I found, chief!" He states, before quaffing the elixir.
(Ayamur)
[20:35] "Khiii. Is of right, has message to deliver sometime. Should be of doing that." Reveler commented. His feet spin fast on the ground, away from the frost as poisonious spores seep into the air.

"Be of listening child. Are of two things in world. Are of things that are holding value. And are of things that are not. You are not."

Already fire spreads over the ground and starts to lurch towards the child.

"Is not of to kill. Everything else is of fair game."
(Reveler)
[20:37] Oya Qui'zti says, "...Hmm..."
[20:38] Lusion asks, "Has anyone seen Ohtli?"
[20:38] Reunan Volos asks, "The winged girl with the two feathers on her horns?"
[20:38] Oya slowly begins to leave, her message possibly having fallen in deaf ears- But such was not her problem anymore, for she had warned them anyway... The sirenian continues, engulfing herself with a mist of water.
(Oya Qui'zti)
[20:38] Reunan Volos says, "Not in a short while, no."
[20:39] Lusion says, "There's two who fit that descriptio, but more or less ye--"
[20:43] Off of the shoulder he hops!

The fae now floating in the air, about eye level. Looking the child in his eyes! Woah. "Listen, Young Leland lord of all things winged! You will be great! Really fucking great- like I can literally see into the fucking future kid." A dramatic pause.

The fae moves fast. like a bullet. Getting REALLY close to the child poking his cheek. "You're awesome." He says in a low voice, almost a whisper! He'd retreat!

Giving the young Drakanite a bit of space.

Anyone with eyes could see the amount of mana from the fae, it was an unreal amount and it wouldn't stop growing! This blessing was going to be another grand one.

"Yea, anyways check it! I love the new generation, you guys are so fucking cool and almost always you shit on the old school. I will continue blessing you young Leland, now close your eyes and prepare!"

No more words.

The fae brings his hands together, andjust as he does every bit of his mana builds up. A swirl of light-pink, blue, and even green energies mix making a quite the beautiful blight.

He was far from finished.

His own life force then began to join this 'attack' making the poor fae sweat from sheer exhaustion. Veins begin to turn a bit dark, he looked pretty fucking beat and tire already.

"Completeo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

The charge was complete and it was now time to fire. Pluto looked to Leland aiming right for the chest.

"Plutokon arts! EX GO-FAE-HADO! HAAH!" It was a direct hit. The energies filling the boy's body giving him a pretty, but pretty shroud of color. His endurance was boosted by a fucking lot and he was over all going to feel like a better person.

Pluto? He just kinda fell to the floor, fuck that guy.


(Pluto)
[20:45] Ashley says, "... I wish I had been a deamon trainer..."
[20:45] Ashley says, "Than I wouldn't need to fight..."
[20:46] Reunan Volos says, "You could learn. It would take quite a long time, but you could learn."
[20:46] Lusion asks, "...So you'd make daemons fight for you?"
[20:46] Lusion says, "Besides, you are a daemon trainer."
[20:46] Lusion says, "Reunan is right here."
[20:46] Reunan Volos asks, "Wait.. what?"
[20:46] Reunan Volos asks, "How am I a daemon Trainer?"
[20:46] Ashley says, "and it didnt even cost me 40 rpp"
[20:46] Lusion says, ".."
[20:46] Eiphraem Kang says, "damn "
[20:47] Lusion says, "Mh.."
[20:47] Lusion says, "..Nothing, was a bad attempt at a joke."
[20:48] Reunan Volos says, ". . . Then I'd be everyone's daemon.. but I do still pick and choose whom I protect."
[20:48] Reunan Volos says, "Oh look, Ohtli."
[20:48] Lusion asks, "Hm?"
[20:48] Reunan POINT!
(Reunan Volos)
[20:49] Lusion says, ".."
[20:49] Reunan Volos whispers something.
[20:49] Ashley whispers something.
[20:49] Lusion hoped he didn't point with his nose. Being an Ookami and all..

[20:51] Reveler watches. The clouds of spores do not fill the air. There are little illusionary blows. Mandrakes grow from the earth and flowers crawl out of his skin. Even the evasive movements he cultivated were not used in favor of standing in one place and watching.

Fire covered the floor. It burned at the girl as the hazel eyes stopped being dilated. Near the end of the fight he ceased entirely, starting to pick at his nails as the Daemon received more attention then him.

Blaze connected with the girl, knocking her to the floor. Fire burns at her skin and slowly the Reveler stepped forwards. A wooded hand grips the Oscuri's hair, holding it tightly.

"Can not be of killing. But can be of teaching lesson, yes?"

His hand moved underneath the chin of the Oscuri, and vines crawled on her skin. It began doing something awful. Wrinkles would set in upon Abbagail's cheekbones, her hair would start to turn grey as if it felt like the very years of her life were being sucked out and consumed. It certainly would not kill her, but if no one stopped, the child would begin to look like an old crone.

[20:51] Reunan perks a brow.

[20:52] Eiphraem Kang whispers something.
[20:52] Ayamur drinks-down the strange elixir without a second thought- … it tastes odd, and that's the simplest way to describe it. It was like drinking down a carefully blended smoothie of hawk-talons, snail entrails and the most bitter licorice he'd ever tasted. He's got a puckered, sour expression, brows knitted...

But all of a sudden, mana glows in his every circuit. The sickly looking mats of interwoven roots that hold his wounds shut abruptly begin to undulate and grow. His skin glows, with a fair white light- and piece by piece, his mending flora falls.

He glows with Exorcism: a bright and healing light, which makes his once-broken skin and bloody wounds seal-up and mend together in smooth, flawless white. He sheds the vines he had grown to seal his injuries and they fall as rich, floral tendrils, which root into the grassy earth as soon as they fall onto it...

He blinks twice- his hearing sharper, even in his blasted ear!- and all of a sudden, he's feeling fresh and wonderful. "Chief- … Chief, it worked!" He says- … almost bare, now. Just some leaves about his long-legged, graceful figure kept him decent now.

He sprints over to the Naga, jumping once- then twice! And it didn't hurt, nor did it tire him in the slightest... "Yowza! I'm back in action!" He cheers, totally consumed in his own elation.
(Ayamur)
[20:53] Ohtli whispers something.
[20:53] Dan Karadin whispers something.
[20:54] "Lord of all things Winged...?" He gulps, accepting yet another title from the Fae. First it was the feather draks's, now everything with wings? Too much responsibility...

"Thanks, Pluto. You always put me in a better mood." If anything, having someone around to boost his confidence is always nice.

The youth nods, not arguing with the little fairy. This blessing? It allowed him to overcome one of his greatest faults, and should push come to shove? He could protect- Lusince, Deirdre, his money. At least, protect it better than he could without the fae's empowerment.

With a cautious gaze he watches as the fae pour it's mana into a single entity. This had to be stressful on the fairy, but should Pluto keep this up? He's bound to learn something from these observations and empowerments.

"Ah...!"

This blessing, this life force of the fae, this connection to the Mother Tree? It's all felt in full, leaving his body covered in a myriad of colors. He begins to take deep, and slow breathes, attempting to find a sense of calm.

"Thanks-" Leland bends a knee, scooping the fallen fae into his palms. "Silly."

He then abruptly shoves his hype man into his pocket.
(Leland Lelhua)
[20:54] As the fight began, Abbigail immediately forced a powerful torrent of water right into the Dryad's face. She followed that up with a flurry of bubbles, water bombs, and chilling icicles. As she sent a typhoon at the Dryad, the ground began to coat itself in water. Though one thing Abbigail didn't understand, was how much this dryad had outclassed her, between his mandrakes, his understanding of Chaos, his fire monkey, and the confusing he was able to force upon her, she found herself extremely disoriented throughout the majority of the fight. Still though, she continued to launch spell after spell at the Dryad, she felt as if she was at least doing some damage. In the end, it was simply her desire to show this bastard that she was not worthless.

Something had caught her attention in the second portion of the fight, as if she wanted to try new tactics. She had noticed every time she got near the dryad, she was forced back and assaulted by not two, but three things at once. Her logic was simple, take out the fire monkey that Reveler hid behind, and then focus on him.

As she shifted her weight, pouring all of her magic into the fire daemon, she could see various icicles appear to tear right through the daemon, no matter how many of her spells she landed on it, it just kept on coming.. was this thing fucking invincible?

It seemed like a long time had passed for Abby, she felt her body growing tired, and the various superficial wounds had began to pain her. Slowly, her legs started to give out, she released a yell of anger and then shouted towards the Dryad.

"I'm not of no value! I am Oscuri, I am Abbigail fucking Anilis!"

It was then that Blaze connected with her, knocking her to the floor and dispelling all of the frost around with its rather impressive flames.
(Abbigail Anilis)
[20:56] Lusion wordlessly glances in Ohtli's direction, having a moments hesitance to involve himself in what's going on behind him.
(Lusion)
[20:58] Reunan shudders slightly, his body twitching.. He didn't want to.. He didn't want to.. He shouldn't...

His body broke from it's immobile stance. He had to.

"Sir, perhaps it would.. be better to leave her with something more lasting. A hand, a foot, something that she will remember even when she naturally ages beyond that which simple prosthetics and potions can heal? A lasting impression, yes?" His body absolutely bristled with energy, outwards it flowed towards all, the feeling of a friend standing beside oneself, prepared to take a bullet for you in a firefight.
(Reunan Volos)
[20:58] He was caught!

The little looks into the eyes of the youth once more. "You do care..!" He'd burst into fae tears... if they even do that. Before over dramatically wiping them away.

"T-Things will get better, Leland boy. Once I stop being lazy I will grow... Just wait, and then we will take on the lands together. Yes, yes. Lord of Winged beings, with the equally as good fae!"

A few coughs here and there from poor Pluto, he was handling this better though. The fairy was almost always giving. That is his nature. To give.
(Pluto)
[20:58] Ohtli says, "...There is no call to be cruel to someone already defeated."
[20:59] Ashley says, "He'll do whatever he wants to do..."
[20:59] Ashley says, "It's easier just to accept that..."
[20:59] Ohtli says, "That doesn't make it right."
[20:59] Ashley sighs miserably.
(Ashley)
[20:59] Dan Karadin says, "Silence.. let Eiphraem decide."
[21:00] Dan Karadin says, "I'll go Lucilius on the next person who speaks of it."
[21:00] Reunan Volos says, "of it."
[21:00] Ohtli says, "...I apologize, Dan, but I think those threats are also unnecessary. "
[21:00] Dan Karadin says, "...It's a joke."
[21:00] Dan Karadin says, "Sort of."
[21:00] Leland Lelhua says, "Yeah. We'll take from the...lazy, and give to the hard working. We can give everyone jobs and put an end to poverty."
[21:00] Ohtli says, "'Sort of'."
[21:01] Dan Karadin says, "More making fun of someone.."
[21:01] Lusion says, "..Mh."
[21:01] Leland Lelhua exclaims, "..and yes I care!"
[21:01] Dan Karadin says, "Who hates noise."
[21:01] Leland Lelhua says, "You're my friend."
[21:02] Leland Lelhua whispers something.
[21:02] Ashley sniffles, deflating. She already knew Leland was talking about her. Eventually she just thwunks to the floor and sits there. Stewing in her own pity party.
(Ashley)
[21:02] Pluto whispers something.
[21:02] Pluto whispers something.
[21:03] Leland drops coins on Ashley's head.
(Leland Lelhua)
[21:03] Leland Lelhua whispers something.
[21:03] Ashley sighs as the coins spill all over her head... She doesn't even collect them they just kind of.. Reside there now.
(Ashley)
[21:03] Pluto says, "Booyah! Money."
[21:04] Leland Lelhua says, "Money is how we'll change the world........."
[21:17] Lusion whispers something.
[21:19] Ohtli whispers something.
[21:19] Lusion whispers something.
[21:19] Ohtli whispers something.
[21:19] Ohtli whispers something.
[21:19] Lusion whispers something.
[21:20] Ohtli whispers something.
[21:21] Lusion whispers something.
[21:26] Movement stalls. People watch. People bargain. No one interrupts. No one stops him.

The vines worm their way into the Oscuri's flesh, getting into her very blood. From within the girl's biological processes, her age bleeds down the vines in her crimson, finding its way instead to the body of the Dryad.

In it's wake it leaves wrinkles, greying hair, and the stealing of enthusiasm, ideals of youth. From his fingers, he drinks it in like honeyed wine, hazel eyes half lidded at the one who was afflicted.

"Is not of good listener. Are of two types of people in world. People who are of holding value, and people who are of not. You are not.

May be believing that is of holding value. May be of held by those saying such. But will turn on and abandon easy. Ones that are of held close will spurn your touch. Ones that are of looked up to will ignore you, and will ignore wrongs done to you. Is of way of world. Is cruel thing before all is turningto dust."

The trail of blood is completed, and vines retract from her skin, leaving behind withered features. His vine tongue moves, licking the blood that trails down his arm. He drinks it, and his features grow ever younger, more dashing, more handsome. A corruptive power hung in the air, malefic and hateful.

"Are not of something desirable. Only way of becoming that is to be of taking worth. But is not of doing that.

Are of wrong Abbigail. Are of holding no value at all, besides of being bloodbag." He drops her body to the floor.
(Reveler)
[21:27]
It was then that she was lifted by the hair, and a hand placed on her chin. As the wrinkles set into her skin, her hair began to turn grey, it was a chilling feeling, as if her very youth was being drained from her. She let out a yell of pain, though it could have been from sheer terror of the experience. For a moment, her vision dimmed, everything went grey and fuzzy.

Slowly, she would begin to look as if she were an elderly woman. Those around could clearly see the wrinkles that formed not only on her face, but on her hands and legs as well. Veins began to grow more prominent and her hands began to shake.

"W... wh.. what did you.. do to me.." she said, stumbling over her own words as they came out extremely raspy, as if she hadn't spoken in many years.

As the Oscuri looked down, and saw her own hands, she felt something that she hadn't truly felt before. Regret. She thought about her actions, and how harshly she overreacted, and as a tear began to form in her eye, the expression of pain and anger faded as her gaze was cast to the ground.

"I'm.." she paused, not having really ever said this before, she didn't even know if she could.. but she was going to try.

"I'm.... sorry.. I should not have threatened, nor attacked you... I deserved this." It was a strange few words that came from the oscuri who would normally punch someone before talking to them, her belief in her strength had been broken by the dryad. Over time though, she would recover some of her confidence, but for now, things would be a little different for the once young Oscuri.

The intensity of her Rieka lines vanished instantly, a nd they returned to their dull green.
(Abbigail Anilis)
[21:27] Ohtli casts and apologetic look towards Lusion beside her, then steps forward and speak aloud.
(Ohtli)
[21:27] Ohtli says, "Conall. That's enough."
[21:27] Lusion gave a somewhat understanding nod, as if he forseen this coming.
(Lusion)
[21:29] ** Reveler has inflicted an injury upon Abbigail Anilis. ("Age Drunk", "The very essense of life within Abbigail's veins has been sipped from. Her form is covered in wrinkles and greying hair, much like a decript old woman. Time would allow her to heal some of this, but she would be left looking quite old for the next year, and even after some wrinkles may remain, reminders of the lesson.", "Temporary", "Duration: Medium (4 days)") **
[21:31] Reunan reunan couldn't do anything but bargain. It was against the law to intervene, it was against his better judgement to be so forgiving of the girl who had caused him so much trouble. His fists clench as she is visibly aged yet still so small. Like an eldery woman who never developed. His teeth clench as he just.. steps away from the painful situation, pulsing heavily with a flow of mana that threatens to drain himself dry to do something, anything. But it was beyond his power to aid.. and this was her own doing.
(Reunan Volos)
[21:32] It was a sign of the times, actions have consequences in the grand scheme of things, all that mattered was that things had to be given back in turn in this world. She could feel her stomach churn, not from the scene but from the natural occurrence of old age itself.

Ironically she watched youth vanish before her eyes, and she looked with a bit of pity. She remembered what it was like to be young, and with magic youth could easily be taken away at the whim of another. It left a her with a strange sense of melancholy but in the end, the context was beyond her understanding for now. As it was she had to remain silent and sojourn without judgment.

All things happen for a reason and this reason was something she wasn't in the scene long enough to understand...
(Ma)
[21:35] Reveler looked as if his internal clock had aged backwards. Youthful in age already, he seemed to grow younger, until he appeared as if he were in his late teens or early twenties rather then midtwenties. His visage grew more handsome, desirable where others might not see such.

And then she is tossed to the side, as if he thought of her no more then trash to be discarded. His name is called, and the hazel eyes faintly looked over.

"Is of done. Said so, yes? Is not having use for things with no value. And has taken what little value was of had."
(Reveler)
[21:37] The Drakan continues to draw forward, blue eyes ablaze with smoldering fury all aimed at the dryad....

But some of that fury pauses. Because she looks at his face and it's that much more familiar suddenly. A young face she remembers that much more clearly.

Pain takes fury's place.

"Just...Stop. There's no need for this."

Ohtli moves to the girl's side.
(Ohtli)
[21:39] Lusion says, "He's...Already done."
[21:39] Ohtli says, "I don't mean just -this-. He shouldn't have done it in the first place."
[21:40] Ohtli says, "He knows what I mean."
[21:41] He cackles. His voice is filled with joy as Ohtli got closer. Reveler would move towards her, his hand settling to stroke her cheek as the ends of his mouth curved upwards into a cruel smile.

"Is of plenty of need. Young things are of needing to learn. That value is thing others are of deciding for you. And if they are deciding you are not of worth?

They take from you and leave you. Affection, care, age, dreams, hope. When others are of seeing you of no longer worth it, they spur everything you care for."

His index finger moves to his lip, tapping on it.

"Is of lesson Ohtli was of teaching Reveler. IS just teaching what was shown."
(Reveler)
[21:42] Yue Lai says, "Wait."
[21:42] Reunan Volos asks, "Yeah?"
[21:42] Yue Lai asks, "Did you go into the caves?"
[21:43] Reunan Volos says, "Yes, I normally to add to my tithe chest. I know it may be hard to recognize me out of my armor."
[21:43] Yue Lai asks, "Name?"
[21:43] Reunan Volos says, "Reunan Volos"
[21:43] Yue Lai says, "I'll ask Iosefka and Eiphraem."
[21:43] Reunan Volos says, "Of course."
[21:44] Reunan Volos says, "Still need to get this excess of Tyrium to Iosefka, and procure more mythril for prosthetics."
[21:44] Reunan Volos says, "As well as this batch of Nyeshk."
[21:45] Ma asks, "Young Sir?"
[21:45] Ma says, "Could I trouble you for some wood deary? "
[21:45] Reunan turns to the older lady. "Mn? Yes? Wood, certainly, how much do you need?"
(Reunan Volos)
[21:46] Shiva Vel'Heim asks, "Enjoy the stretch?"
[21:48] The hand is rebuked swiftly and with a sharp smack. That anger returns, but the pain doesn't lessen. It's sharp and fresh, strange considering how long ago that last touch just exactly was. Her wings fan open and her feathers bristle.

"You will -not- touch me like that," she snaps back sharply. Her words carry a seldom heard venom that's strange coming from the Drakan woman. She does her best to reign in that acidity, that bitterness, and smooths her tone after a few measured breaths.

"...Our business isn't for the open air, Conall. It's not for other ears. It's between you and me. And I pray to the Serpent that you learn a different lesson to replace that terrible one."

Guilt. Now there is guilty. Ohtli stoops over the form of the Oscuri girl and tries to lift her to take her to the infirmary. It's what little she can do.
(Ohtli)
[21:48] She smiles, it was always nice to see someone that was willing to help when asked politely.

"I just need enough for a torch young sir, it's a little hard for these old eyes to see when I look for a few ores. Time is a fleeting resource"

She chuckles for a moment before wiping down the dirt on her dress, it was clear that she was exhausted but still moving forward with whatever task she was previously pursuing.
(Ma)
[21:50] Lusion watches from the distand, wordless to their exchange. To see two ideal clash always made him question a lot of things. From Ohtli's passion behind her words, furry and aggression for what sought was right. To the other's feeble gait towards a lesson in need of teaching.

It made him sigh, a hand rubbing at his nap as his eyes followed the woman. In time, he slowly drifted behind her. It wasn't in his right to be involved, but he internally had some agreements which lead to the outcome of the young-- now frail girl, aged like a raisin.
(Lusion)
[21:51] Reunan listens for a moment then turns at first to go grab a branch from some tree somewhere but stops a moment later in his tracks. He then turn s and begins digging in the ground where he had just buried his tithe chest to eiphraem.

"I'll do you one better, ma'am. I have a- Nnmph- Spare torchlight potion. Just give it a small shake and it's brighter than a torch. Better than risking burning your fingers or straining your arms." He uncovers the lid of the chest and puts his key into it's lock, turning it swiftly and lifting the lid.

Looking over the contents he grabs a small lantern filled with a strange photo-kinetic liquid that would glow when shaken, holding it out to the older lady with a smile.
(Reunan Volos)
[21:53] Gideon looks at the body of a wolf.
(Gideon Ruger)
[21:53] Gideon Ruger asks, "Hmm..Anyone care for these spare parts?"
[21:53] Reveler bobbed his head. "Was of enjoying playing very much, Master." The Dryad's tone was amused, and his vine tongue graced his lips again. His hand is smacked away by Ohtli, but he does not draw it in as if it were pained, only hanging it out. The hazel pupils drink and dilate, staring towards the Drakan.

"Will do as is wanting. As has always done." A droplet of the blood that previously belonged to the Oscuri settled onto the grass beneath.

"Is lesson that Ohtli gave. That 'Conall' was worthless. That 'Conall' was thing to be spurned, ignored, trash and was treated as trash." He cackled, drawing his hand in. "Reveler is not of trash. Is of thing that has worth. Is of thing Ohtli responds to. Is what should have been all along, yes?"

He turns and looks towards Shiva, hiding his face from the Drakan. His expression is euphoric, filled with delight. "Khii-hi-hi."
(Reveler)
[21:54] s
(Nias)
[21:56] "This is so kind of you young sir, it's good to see that someone was willing to help without any vile in the slightest. I'm glad that I wasn't too much of a burden, I just wish I could do something to repay you kind Sir."

She holds with potion in her hand, it was warm to the touch, she could feel the energy swirl and fulminate in the body, it was a miracle of magic and science.

"Deary, could I have your name? I know that one of these days I'll figure out a way to repay you"

A gentle and elderly hands brushes against his shoulder in gratitude, a delicate but withered smile follows her warm thanks.
(Ma)
[22:01] Ohtli's patience has its limits. The Serpent can only lend so much wisdom in a situation that hits so close to home.

"I see no worth in you," she replies harshly, lifting up the drained Oscuri girl. 'Cartaker' she'd been called. 'Caretaker' she will be. The feathers in her hair sway as she does so...and they are far less colorful than they used to be. Plumes of green and purple are missing from the arrangement. Now there are feathers of red and black.

The Drakan puts her back towards the Dryad and turns to face Lusion.

"I'll do what's needed for this one. Can you wait a second?"

Her face is set into something far more stern.
(Ohtli)
[22:01] Reunan slowly buried the chest once more and took a seat at the base of the statue, stretching out and relaxing on the grass, looking up at the setting sun.

"Mn? Oh, my name's Reunan Volos. really though, it's no problem. My aura shines enough for me to see in the darkness, possibly why so much darkness targets me of all people. A light that poses a threat to the darkness they are comfortable in, escaping their own existence in the uniformity of shadow." He sighs softly, rubbing his burn scar on his right arm with the mythril of his left prosthetic.

"You can repay me by not tripping in the dark now that you have a light and take extra care when traversing dark places."
(Reunan Volos)
[22:02] Abbigail appears to be around age seventy.
(Abbigail Anilis)
[22:02] Ma says, "I'll make sure to keep that in mind deary."
[22:02] Lusion offers a silent nod, cutting off his ties when following behind her. Instead he motions over by the fence and remains there.
(Lusion)
[22:02] Ma says, "My name, it's it's long and old, but usually people just end up calling me Ma'."
[22:04] Reunan Volos says, "I see. Most call me Reunan. A blacksmith and protector."
[22:04] Ma asks, "A smith you say?"
[22:04] Ma says, "That is hard work! "
[22:04] Reunan Volos says, "Indeed. Since a was a kid, I've practiced."
[22:05] Ma exclaims, "I'm impressed!"
[22:05] Ma says, "I remember when I was young, I know a boy that was a pretty good smith."
[22:05] "Sees no worth, yet is paying more attention then ever was before. Is having more passion for Reveler then was for Conall. Can say what is saying. Is action that matters.

And action is saying is more important to Ohtli now then ever." His tone quiets, a final few cackles leaving his maw.

"Byeeeeeeeeeee."
(Reveler)
