 A places with animals everywhere. Hunters and Huntress gather and find their prey, food, whatever it is... The mystery of the woods are very deep into the woods. Don't go any further. |
 |
| Zuur runs to the woods and hides behind a tree as she holds her bow and arrow and aims to a duck. I know Mick loves duck soup! He's going to smile when he sees this. Breathing deep and holding her breath she shoots her arrow with precise and perfect aiming she hits the duck. Walking to the duck she notices an abandoned house. Picking up the dead duck, placing it inside a bag she brought with herself she continues her exploration and walks closely to the abandoned house. |
|
| Walking near by the abandoned house she leans forward to see if anyone's there. Of course there wouldn't be people here, it's obiously abandoned which means no one would be here. Opening the door she enters and sees a man laying down sleeping. "Um, excuse me? Are you lost?" The man wakes up shocked seeing the Princess out here alone in the woods. Giving him some weird ideas in his head but then he shakes his head and responds. "Your Highness! I... I didn't think you'd be out here alone. It's dangerous!" She, with a curious face asks him. "But I was just exploring and hunting. I got a duck!" She shows the duck to the man on the floor and puts her hand to help him stand up. "Would you like me to help you find your home?" She asks him politely. "Don't worry, Highness. I will lead my own way." She holding his hand firmly and stares at him. "You're hungry and I can see it, let me help you, please! I have food I can share with you. I don't want any of my fellow citizens suffer from starvation. Follow me, sir." She walks him into the castle as she brings the duck and holding his arm. |

| Yuza took a deep breath. She could feel the breeze lightly caressing her face. She took a step deeper into the woods, returning to her old home. The blood stains dried up now but the burnt tents still remained. Skeletons were littered everywhere, the only living thing in a hundred mile radius was her, this land has been known to be cursed. It's your fault! We trusted you! Voices still haunts her. She grabbed her head and spiraled down until she was on her knees. You killed us all! You are a disgrace! She screamed at nothing. Tears welled up from her eyes. "Mom, dad, I'm so sorry!" she was slowly weeping. You are pathetic! The voices in her head was too loud, she had to do the only one thing she could do to keep her sane. She slowly opened her mouth and sang a gentle melody... "Every night when I get home The monkey's on the table, Take a stick and knock it off, Pop! goes the weasel." |
 |
| Crows from above gathered on the trees above. They all focused on Yuza, all not saying a word. Just looking. |
| The voices started to fade away, she need not sing anymore. Avenge us! Suddenly a loud sound echoed repeatedly in her mind, no amount of distraction can stop this one. She knew what she had to do. She started singing as she skipped playfully to the castle of the new princess, Zuur. "London Bridge is falling down, Falling down, falling down. London Bridge is falling down, My fair lady." |
|
| The crows flew over Yuza to the castle. |
| Normally you would be too proud to ever admit to yourself that you were lost but even pride as bloated as yours has its limits. The skirmish with bandits you encountered a mile or so of identical folliage behind you had sent you astray from the path to the castle. You are a Hierophant, the last of your kind, one tasted with overseeing a small castle in the mountains that has recently aroused suspicion in the eyes of the Divine. Stepping down from your mount -a well trained and lightly armoured stallion- you reach beneath the tan flap of your inventory pouch and grasp a paper parchment and withdraw. After consulting your map and barings you find that you are indeed not far from the castle. Now returned to the saddle atop your silent companion you continue into the woods, expecting to see the castle peak out from the trees soon. |
| A man was in a tree aiming with a bow and an arrow knocked into the bow string at a rabbit he saw but he kept silent and waited for the right time to fire |
| After a little bit the rabbit leaped and the man fired his arrow hitting the animal and killing it then the man jumped down from the tree and walked over to the animal and retrieved his arrow and began carrying the animal back to his cabin |
| The man had finished his meal and headed for the city to do some shopping |
| Jamien: Arvie not far behind the queen. she had a short sword with her, not a weapon she use often because it was so light but deadly like most weapons in her hands. |
| Running as fast as she could, without losing her breath she continues as she runs. Looking around into the woods coming from a far distance of the castle, she sees Jamien not so far away from her. She stops as she stands in front of her. The Princess knows that Jamien is a very close familiar to her so she places her hand on her mask, taking it slightly off. "Hey, what are you doing here? I thought you'd be at the castle..." Slowly reaching for air she calms herself. That insignia... Could this be true? So sudden? Losing herself once again in her thoughts. She returns to herself as she looks at Jamien. |
|
| Jamien:"I am doing my job and keeping an eye on you. I should drag you back to the castle but I did not have time to tell Mack were i was going and a bit lost so I may have to hold up on doing that." she told her she had a smile on her face telling her she will folo her and let her do what she wants. "I'm sure Mack will not be to mad if I do that." |
| "This is no place for young girls to wander in. These woods give rise to a myriad of marauders, bandits and slavers that stand to gain a lot by capturing the likes of you," you tell the pair as you calm your horse to rest. "Especially," you proceed as you take note of the mark on the older of the two's forehead, "if they happen to be of royalty." The crest embroidered into the bliaunt you don beneath your obsidian glass armor reveals you to all as an Overseer of the Divine. "It is not wise for she who sits the throne to so carelessly saunter into dangerous territory. Now more than ever if this rumour of demonic activity is to be believed. " That is what brings you here. While the words of a mere pig farmer are as commanding as foul air, any rumours of demon sightings are simply too important to dismiss. |
| Jamien: get her sword out and look at the person. "she will be fine. Go on your way she will meet you in due time back at the castle." |
| "Think of a reason why this hound of yours shouldn't be executed, orphan, I need some convincing on that matter. In the mean time," you say, turning your attention to the girl brandishing the blade and glare down at her, your eyes twice as sharp as any weapon on her inventory. "In the meantime perhaps you can help me understand something. You informed me that the orphan princess here would meet me in 'due time', was it? So then you know what I am. An Overseer, a representative of the divine herself... yet you hold steel to me. This is what I simply must resolve. Why would one so foolishly put their life in such grave danger for no reason at all?" |
| "Because no dangers are in this forest if there were any you'd expect them to be lying dead with an arrow through them" A voice said and if the princess and jamien turned around they'd see a man in a mottled grey and green camouflaged cloak on a horse bow drawn and arrow nocked on the string bow fully drawn back aiming at the person who said why risk your life and if you looked at the man's chest you could see a gold pendant with the shape of an oak leaf and a crown was imprinted into the oak leaf shape showing that he served the princess |

| The Princess observing the Overseer, showing threatning motives towards Jamien, Zuur suddenly aims her twin blades on her neck furiously. "You dare speak so rude towards my friend? Do you even know who I am? Placing her half mask on her face only showing her eyes that are glaring at the Overseer. An Overseer? So this is what he meant? |
|
| The man's face was still expressionless under his hood "it's three against one what are you gonna do now" the man said as he released the arrow but he moved his bow to the side making it fly past the person's ear "so what brings you here Zuur?" The man asked the girl in the mask (Zuur would know him due to him being a royal ranger) |
| "But of course I do. Orphan and royalty are quite particular terms, are they not? Now, if you would please refrain from being so demanding of me... after all this situation is not as in your hands as you would like." You sensed the air to accommodate the notched bow before you started speakingAn arrow would do the trick, you think to yourself as you intentionally lean your head in the direction of the arrow as it sailed through the air. You part your lips before the arrow sails into your mouth, closing with its entrance. You lean your head back as though you were about to fall to the ground dead, but, you merely inhale swiftly through your nostrils and rock forward, blowing hot ash that was once the arrow into the face of the Princess. While hot ash had the potential to blind the girl if it made contact with her eyes, you ensured you had enough manipulated air in opposition to allow her to flinch and draw away to protect her face. That involuntary action is what you take advantage of. Moving your hands up to the daggers, you grip them and, as if they were crafted with rope instead of steel, wrap them around the girls hands and construct a knot before pushing her to the ground. That is where your actions end. You have diffused the immediate danger and have no desire to ignite any of her own. You fold your hands as you divert your eyes to the ranger. "You there, bowman. draw another arrow and that bow will be ash. Your ruler and her guard, not to mention you yourself, are guilty of a capital offense: threatening the life of an Arch-Overseer. You seem the oldest of you adolescents so hopefully you are the most open to reason. Explain to the orphan princess that I represent the will of The Divine Pontifex Alessandra the forth. The single most powerful force in all the realms. Threatening me is threatening the will of the Pontifex herself. One single report... or one lack thereof would lead to enough soldiers marching these lands to ensure that the Casthradia Holllows would be but a memory. Explain to her that I am here to protect your land. That I have no desire to act violently unless others act violently against me, such as in this instance. Tell her that the meeting I must hold in the castle with the leaders of her forces is far more important than whatever reason you are ambling around these woods for. Finally, explain to her that this meeting is just as important to her as it is to me because I have reason to suspect demonic forces are gathering in this very kingdom so her co-operation is with me would be the wisest decision she will make as a ruler. Can you do that?" |
| The man instantly jumped from his horse and into the way of the ashes but the ashes didn't damage his clothes as he quickly wiped them off "and what brings you to the forest?" The man said pointing the question to the one on horseback |
| (ashes weren't near your character :o I'd better wait for the others to reply before moving on. Also: who is that directed at?) |
| (He intercepted the paths of the ashes XD he's pretty quick as well and at your character Ofc XD) |
| (so your character noticed what she was doing (??? Somehow) dismounted, ran over the the overseer and the princess, got in between them even though the princess had knives to her throat, and finally jumped in the air between them so the ashes would hit his clothes and not his face. All this done faster than it took for ashes to blow an inch or two in the wind? Yup, that's not happening, sorry Also, my character isn't on a horse and she already explained why she's in the woods :o) |
| (Ok then so ignore that part and he didn't hear her reason as he arrived just as your character said why risk your life?) |
| (she's in the woods on the way to the castle for the reasons stated in the speech which was directed specifically to him :P) |
| (Oh well then guess just go on ignoring the question) The man sighed "Ranger" he corrected then he said "that doesn't mean you get to tell Zuur if she stays on this forest or not it's entirely her choice and trust me She will be safe in this forest she can fight herself and she's got two of her subjects right here to fight alongside her" The man said |
SleeplessVampireJan 16, 2015 4:05 PM
| Zuur suddenly appeared on the ground, tied up as she flinched after what was thrown to her eyes. Her eyes turning slightly red, but no ordinary red, but a red so rare but blurry. Come on, kill her young girl. You know she's threatening you. Do it... Don't hesitate and kill her! The voices were in Zuur's head as she was lost in her thoughts. Suddenly she returns to her normal self. Listening to each and every word that the Overseer was explaining. Zuur feeling shame and closing her eyes as she lift up her face facing the overseer opening her eyes. "So you're not some outside killer. You're here to protect the grounds. With all due respect." Standing up, still tied up. Zuur walks upon the woman. Pulling her hands she destroyed what had her tied up. "With all due respect, I'm not here to threaten someone who's on our side. I, too, am here to protect our Kingdom and if I may. I'll guide you to my castle and we'll discuss this matter with our royal rangers and I, myself." Formally she explains and awaits her answer. Observing her, Zuur seems to understand the situation. But the voices she heard deep in her thoughts were frightening. Which obviously is part of the darkness she has within her body. Something that she mustn't lose the control of. Although Zuur, does not have an idea what is going on. |

| "So I'm guessing you'll want me to come to the castle with you" Maou said "well might as well bring back some food for the chef to preserve or cook" he said as he drew an arrow and quickly fired it at an animal which happened to be a rabbit then he went over and picked it up "Can your chef cook rabbit?" Maou asked face still expressionless under his hood although he's been at the castle a few times he just never had chance to try any meals |
