We stood gathered, father talking to the others quietly while the bound woman was bound and wedged up between a pedestal and the hot gate to the fire engulfed cell. Neri was totally engrossed in what was going on as usual. Usually she's safe in the chamber deep below the earth. Usually. There was a tickle at the back of her thoughts and then, "I see you, I approach.." The masculine whisper set her straight on edge and her head jerks around, looking all over the room, glistening black orbs hitting every corner with natural sight and past with the eye of depths. Nothing was out of the ordinary, the people around her familiar and well known but for the human woman. She turns her mind outward quickly and scours the city around close and even then nothing. That one little touch gave her a sense to know what to look for but she couldn't find anything in spite knowing that this individual was close still.
A hard shake of her head in an attempt to clear it and then she catches sight of something pale within the dark recesses of her father's throne. Instantly, her guard flares up in a well of coldness and turns, alerting Vulcan with a mental touch. .oO{Vulcan! Who's that in yer chair!?}Oo. Of course she was terrified. Someone managed to slip through the defenses and enter her safe domain.
Curios Doobie: i think she GAVE you choices Lord Vulcan.. i think its so kind of her to do so in the lightest extent, but i dont think she understands your vision
Curios Doobie: but she is using words..
Curios Doobie: actons are louder than words..
Zepher Dean materializes in this chair "Looks like the right place."
Zepher Dean: ☾☬ HUHUHOHAHAHARRR!! ☬☽
Nerissa Dae moves to Vulcan quickly with a frown.
Curios Doobie draws his blade and aims it to the foriegn one
The human woman laughs lightly, eyes moving up to watch the ceiling .."Oh, this isn't about his vision Curios, it's about what happens on the way. I don't need action. This choice, is about more than my life, and V knows it.."
Zepher Dean: Now now
Zepher Dean: let's not have any of that
Zepher Dean: I could smell her fear miles away
Vulcan Dagger: Execute him.
Curios Doobie tilts his head.. staring at Zepher without dropping his guard
Zepher Dean: what do you expect
Vulcan Dagger turns around
Curios Doobie: yes lord
Curios Doobie attacks Zepher
The demon is brought down quickly, effortlessly, by her father's minion. Nerissa hovers behind Vulcan's towering dark visage while her tail whips side to side viciously with wariness.
Curios Doobie waits..
Vulcan Dagger: Now...Rise again Zepher..and we will try this again
Zepher Dean dusts himself off
Vulcan Dagger: You enter into a Domain not your own, You will not make contact with anyone other then myself, that Includes Nerissa.
Vulcan Dagger: State your Business.
Zepher Dean: Curriosity
Zepher Dean: the smell of a game hard at play
Zepher Dean: the gathering of demons
Vulcan Dagger: Curiousity. So you make contact with Nerissa's mind and intrude upon my Domain.
Zepher Dean: the bright eyed on was open
Zepher Dean: forgive the intrusion
Vulcan Dagger: Before we continue, You will not follow, contact or harress any more of my Kyn. Are we clear on that..
Zepher Dean grumbles a bit "Very clear"
Vulcan Dagger nods " Very Good..What is your name, Kyn."
Zepher Dean: Zepher Dean
Curios Doobie turns back to Ethiadia.. still holding his guard.."to be bluntly honest.. i dont know whom you are, where you come from, nor do i care about either.. there is obviously a reason Lord Vulcan has you bound upon his floor.."
Vulcan Dagger: Zepher Dean..do you know who I am?
Zepher Dean: I am gathering your identity
Vulcan Dagger: What have you Gathered..
Zepher Dean: this is perhaps your hall that I so rudely jumped into
Nerissa Dae moves further away from the unknown demon, putting some distance between.
Ethiadia Laasonen leans forward, looking up at Curious with a soft smile ..."There is a reason for everything, though I find it fairly stupid that you do not care, the origins of what make the happening. Kind of sloppy of you, wouldn't you say?"
Vulcan Dagger: It is.
Zepher Dean: And I perhaps disturbed the king during a ritual
Vulcan Dagger: Zepher Dean, your face and name has been "remembered"...from this point on, you will be watched. You will not make it very far should you try to assault any of the Kyn of this City, including my Brethen. If you think otherwise...I hope you do not entertain the illusion
Zepher Dean nods
Raisa Nightfire coughs and gets up from the chair, straightening her jacket before taking a few steps away "Well, i've been here for a good few hours and I guess i'll be going...
Vulcan Dagger: If you wish to linger with demons as one of the Kyn with no false or ill intentions..I will allow you sanctuary in my Home so long as I am present but you will ask the next time you think to Intrude..otherwise, you will die in mere seconds upon entry.
Vulcan Dagger: Sit Down!
When he bellows, its only smart to do what is demanded. Nerissa watches as both the bewitched feline and demon sits, one at the table and another on the edge of the bed she had been tied to for a couple days from Neri's own hands.
Curios Doobie scratches his chin a bit.. really unsacathed by words, but he was becoming annoyed.. he raised his blade and struck her in the temple with the blunt side so to knock her out only.. the forged ice shattering in the midst while he turned his back
Zepher Dean: "seems my curiousity has been waranted
Nerissa Dae looks to Raisa and back to Vulcan.
Curios Doobie looks to Vulcan.."she talks a lot.."
Vulcan Dagger sighs softly "aye"
The human sees the impact but simply lets it come, the blow to her head giving hte result desired and rendering her completely unconscious.
Brandy Snifter : That was delicious, Zepher Dean!
Vulcan Dagger looks at Ethiadia's knocked out form and looks back at Curios
Nerissa Dae: You could of just put her gag back on.
Curios Doobie: ..i could of...
Vulcan Dagger: Not one of her Good Days.
Nerissa Dae sets another dark silver dusted petal on her tongue, devouring it, while she looks down at the unconscious woman.
Vulcan Dagger takes a seat
Raisa Nightfire turns around "Why? You tell Amarie to bring me here but not a word has been spoken towards me since i've been here"
Curios Doobie: i would rather not do battle with words and wit.. no one ever wins as long as Anonymity exists
Zepher Dean: I must take my leave
Zepher Dean: pehaps another time
Vulcan Dagger: Good day, my Friend
Vulcan Dagger: Nice meeting you..
Zepher Dean: I will make my approch more Transaparent
Vulcan Dagger: That would be helpful.
Zepher Dean bows and fades
After the skull faced demon disappeared...deep in Neri's thoughts, she hears...
Vulcan Dagger growls, the sound sending chills down her spine, where no one else can here him. She asks him, "You don't know him?"
Father says, "No. An assassin coming for you..."
She's quiet for a moment before replying, "Foolish of him to come down here with us all for that."
"Stay away from him." He tells her. "When-ever you see him or Vincent, you get away."
Nerissa gives a mental nods, heart sinking with a cold knot settling in her belly.
She thinks of the other attempts on her life over the last couple of weeks. No where was she safe she was beginning to see and deep down she knows now why he pushes her so hard to keep her defense up. Wanting her to be prepared for anything.
