  1. [21:37] Revan Task asks, "Lilith.. Do you remember.. When you asked about my mother?"
  2. [21:37] Lilith thinks to herself for a moment
  3. (Lilith Allison)
  4. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  5.  
  6. [21:38] Lilith Allison says, "Yes, I remember"
  7. [21:39] Revan Task says, "If I recall correctly.. You made a comment about your own.. Home life.. Though.. You didn't elaborate on it"
  8. [21:39] Revan Task says, ".. I didn't ask at the time as we were moving.. And I didn't know.. How to ask.."
  9. [21:39] Revan Task asks, "But.. Is.. That something you would like to discuss?"
  10. [21:39] Lilith smile drops
  11. (Lilith Allison)
  12. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  13.  
  14. [21:40] Lilith Allison says, "I-I'm okay with discussing it I guess"
  15. [21:40] Revan Task says, ".. You do not have to if you do not wish."
  16. [21:40] Lilith Allison says, "Nah, it'll be fine. Whats in the past is in the past"
  17. [22:02] Hearing Revans question, Lilith quickly finishes sorting the ores in the chests. She walks on by to Revan and sits down beside him, trying to force a smile in the process. Her hands grip tightly and start turning into claws.
  18.  
  19. "When I was a child... We had a happy family in Osrona. My drakanite mother was an air magi and my father was a splendid alchemist. We lived by through our fathers alchemy, living a normal and fine life. Things were great really!" Liliths eyes start to moisten as she recalls her family memories. The times she spent and the love she felt were precious to her.
  20.  
  21. "Everything went downhill after my Magi abilities were exposed. It happened when I was playing with some children my age. They were bullying me, and I got mad. Which then caused me to awaken to my magic. Poison..." She grips her thighs hard and her pants start to rip.
  22.  
  23. "All the children there started choking, their screams echoing throughout the village, their eyes start to burn and turn white, and their blood turned into a scary dark purple. That was when my mother found me, she used her air magic to push away the poisonous air and took me back home to my father." Unable to hold back the tears anymore she starts to cry.
  24.  
  25. "The villagers were at out door soon after, with pitchforks and torches. Blaming my father, the village alchemist, for poisoning all the children... Their rage and screams start to batter the doors. With my father carrying me, my mother tells him to go to Theira. Where Drakanites from all places are welcome." Lilith then rubs her eyes before finishing her story.
  26.  
  27. "My mother stayed behind to stall the villagers, my father taking me on a journey to Theria. It was a long trip, but on the way bandits attacked us. Father couldn't do anything to fight, so they just did what they pleased with him. I again, got angry from seeing random men beat up my father and yet again released poisonous gas. And again, their screams, their eyes, their purple blood. The poison flowed through their bodies like blood."
  28.  
  29. She pauses for a moment, collecting her thoughts once more.
  30.  
  31. "With father dead from the beatings and from my poison, I had to make the last leg of the journey alone. As I approached Theria, the drakanites did not like the weak, and so, I had to survive on scraps of food and hard labour for the most of my childhood after."
  32.  
  33. As Lilith finishes her story, she feels as though a weight has been lifted off her chest. She looks at Revan and smiles.
  34.  
  35. "Its the reason why I had such a tough time controlling my poison... Regardless, I still try to smile and be happy whenever I can"
  36. (Lilith Allison)

  38.  
  39. [22:07] Astrid says, "hihi~"
  40. [22:07] Astrid would wave before plonking on top of one of the chairs
  41. (Astrid)
  42. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  43.  
  44. [22:26] Revan would listen closely, his head turned just enough so that he could study her posture and facial expressions. He could see her struggling, the normally so happy and carefree Lilith.. It caused a tightening in his chest, seeing those feminine hands of hers turning into scaled claws.
  45.  
  46. .. So today was the day he found out all of his guildmates were Drakanites. He found it peculiar that it was something they would hide- however, hearing her story, how her magic came out so potently, and all at once.
  47.  
  48. The detail she went into, describing the color of their skin, the ways their eyes would turn as their lives slipped away.. And at such a young age, he could tell it was something that haunted her.
  49.  
  50. He would feel his hand twitch when tears fell down her face, he felt like he had to comfort her somehow. He couldn't imagine accidentally taking so many lives, being ran out of your home and losing both of your parents at such a young age.
  51.  
  52. Even as she finished her heartbreaking tale, she would meet Revan's golden hues, and still be able to smile at him, her face still wet with tears. The bandaged boy would have a softened expression on his own face.
  53.  
  54. What could he even say? He was more of a man of action, so he would throw an arm around her, pulling her into his chest for an embrace- it was something that felt so foreign to him. Normally the only contact he ever had with people were of the violent variety.
  55.  
  56. "I.. Am so sorry you had to endure that.." He would finally say. "I.. Think you are incredibly strong.. Enduring what you had to.. This world we live in.. It is chaotic.. There are so many things that.. Happen out of our control.. For you to survive such tragedy.. To find this guild.. To still smile, and make everyone else feel like.. To give them a place they belong.. I.. I think that is.. Quite beautiful." He would say in a hushed son, his voice caring all the sincerity he could.
  57. (Revan Task)
  58. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  59.  
  60. [22:41] Astrid wouldn't really expect to walk in to such a heavy hearted conversation. The fledgling Magi Slayer would lean forward ever so slightly, resting her chin atop of her arms.
  61.  
  62. So.. Even Magi can suffer...
  63.  
  64. Her heart went out to Lilith, though a guilty look seems to come over her. She knew that this wasn't the time for it, but somehow a wave of relief comes through the non magi.
  65.  
  66. "..."
  67.  
  68. The girl would glance idly onto the table. For so long she'd always seen magically inclined beings as Unstoppable or even Godlike…
  69.  
  70. Somehow, knowing this little bit of information reminded her that sometimes? Even magi went through the same evils as the mundane folk. She'd rub her arm softly, the shifting cloth revealing bruises and scars to those with a keen eye.
  71.  
  72. "This... is home to me... So I agree with Revan"
  73. (Astrid)
  74. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  75.  
  76. [22:45] As Leodo and Vixen enter the room, Lilith picks herself up from Revans embrace and wipes away dry tears. Smiling at the new guests and Astrid as well.
  77.  
  78. "W-Welcome to the D-Dragons Tooth. How may I h-help ya guys" Says, still trying to contain her emotions
  79. (Lilith Allison)
