Appearing along an establishment known as a nymph of a different color. An old tavern in a realm she and Zantara had made for themselves as a private playground. A place to blow off steam when the days work was done. Opening the long sealed doorway to the patch of reality Ariel knew she was making her presence well known to her former husband. That was not the reason why she had come but it seemed to be a bonus. In what seemed to be a wasteland laid a well worn building. Seeming to fall appart at the seams. The name still in broken neon.
Breaking the locks and chains almost rusted away with time and neglect.Pushing the doors open The inside of the establishment seemed untouched. A single story establishment from the prying eyes many things were not as they seemed in this little tavern in the middle of nowhere. A a fully stalked bar well atleast the bottles that were not broken, Layers of dust had settled over the furnature and objects giving the place a sence of being lost. The tones of grey and rust decay that was most unsettling. Heading back to the hidden room on the first floor.
As all things are born in one way or another some awful things need to fade away. Atleast that is one of the many things running through Ariel's mind as she walked though the premesis. That was what this place was to be a symbol of her new beginning being a honest woman to say the least. She could see the room had never been cleaned out when she had left this place. A layer of dust over dead memories, She looked to the liquior cabinet seeing that it was still stocked with some of the unbroken bottles from her excursion with the demon wolf.
Taking out one of the bottles of whiskey, a devlish smirk coming across the old serpents lips. Her golden eyes looking deeply within the bottle lost in thought. As if it had all the answers of the world and to the many realms beyond. Her gloved fingers running over the dusty glass. She set the bottle on what used to be a full countertop half of it was lost in distruction. Shaking her head as she removed her gloves tossing them down beside the bottle.
Her white hair danced behind her looking about as she scrounged about gathering more and more bottles and setting them on the counter once it was full she went into the bar itself. Collecting all the bottles she could seeing a few that Zantara had taken special care to have gotten for the place's opening. She took them out from what she was setting on the bar and set them on a single table. Taking a moment to pull out her cigarette case from a hidden pocket. Setting a thin cigar in her lips taking a pack of matches from the bar and lighting it.
She took a deep inhilation of the smoke heading to the back of the establishment to start up the power. She took her time getting used to the idea that she had in her head. She didn't know why she needed this now. Alas it had been burning in her mind.Atleast now that it was free from those pesty thoughts of mortality.Her life was ruined by her ignorant thoughts,dreams of a simple life. Oh how she was a fool, and at this point ignorance was never bliss.
Hearing the whine of machinery kicking back on as she took a deep inhilation of the smoke. The jutebox still worked, she couldn't help but let the twitch of laughter come to her face taking the cigar from her lips. Laughter flowing fullheartedly from the freyed edges of her mind. It seemed like it was the type of joke that came from the forces beyond. Hearing the song that it played could only make her nearly collapse from her body starting to ache from laughing.Oh how media always seemed to mock her when she was facing. Taking slow steps Sure that the survelance equipment that he had surely set this place with was working. She looked about speaking as if she would to herself.
" This isn't a message to you m'love...Just some things should just be forgotten. Tired of living in the dreams that I can never seem to wake from." Ariel spoke from the deepest part of herself yet knowing it could and most likely would be used against her at a later time. " You were the only one to truly understand my actions atleast when we first met. Maybe I was just another pawn in your game. Who knows,who cares!" She spoke in that warm tone of her true voice the elongated s as she uttered the words hints of her mothertongue coming. "Only you can truly understand why my actions are unforgiveable. You tried to release me from this world giving me an easy way out of this mess. Fate has made other plans maybe you be able to savor your vengence in seeing my waking nightmare." She smiled her fangs easily seen as she looked across to the old mirror. Looking to the woman who she didn't reconize. Aleast not anymore. Was Ariel truly speaking to herself or the old ghosts that seem to rattle in that skull of hers?
Ariel silenced herself both he and Vash said she was one for talking too much. Taking that advice she just opened up one of bottles. Taking one last swig, before she threw the bottle across the bar seeing and hearing the glass shatter and the liquior splattered across the wall and dripping down. Taking each bottle and saturating the walls and floor as a easy to find accelerent.Even going back to that accursed room making sure that the fire that she would start would burn the place through and through.Throwing and pouring the bottles until the last of it remained the special ordered bottles of wine Zantara had purchased. Picking them up she went outside setting them on the ground with care.
Looking to the old establishment she held out her hand a bright flame being nursed within her hand. Letting it pulse and grow as if it were a beating heart.Letting it grow and mature before throwing it inside and letting it burn.Her golden eyes watching it closely as she could see the blaze consuming it all.Thick black smoke pouring out of the holes in the roof. She had considered bringing marshmellows and inviting Vash to come join in though he would have frowned upon good booze going to waste. With his help it could have been hell of a show. " Damn, next time I guess" She chuckled to herself as she felt the weight lifting.
Fire breaths and it too seemed hungry cosuming only leaving ashes to feed the earth.Such is the duality of nature. Her need was silenced, and yet some of her questions had been answered. She stood there minute after minute hour after hour until the wreckage and ash still remained smoldering still the whisps of smoke danced in the light of the sun that rose from the east. The heat of the morning causing the winds to pick up knocking down what remained.The vision of the woman faded, leaving no trace of her existance besides the chared remains of her once bittersweet get-a-way. Taking the bottles to her home to store them for now. Hoping Rhian could take them to him if she ever fancied the thought.

The resureection of the dark goddess |

Within the realms unspoken of amongst the spawn of the abyss. Robbed figures stood with the candles lit. They had taken a good portion of their lives trying to revive the goddess that tey all thought had returned to the energy of the universe. She had hidden herself from the world only one entrusted incubi who had received her dark blessing knew where she was. He had loved her and shown her the other side of the looking glass the life of a willing slave. From a dark goddess the ultimate mistress of the dark to becoming a human humble servant haunted by the melody of her son's lullaby still lived on for two decades they had worked on this spell to bring the dark goddess back. Her followers were loyal to the end and wanted to see her goals of destruction of the conservative ways of old. But as good intentions the path to the damnation by the sting of the poison in which they had sewn in the realms.
The time was right the moon high above them as hundreds of her worshippers had brought her relics back from her temples. All of the energy all of their will concentrated on her reciting the eldest of rites. over and over they chanted their voices getting louder and louder as the nightmare began anew. They wanted the god killer they wanted the dark goddess that haunted their dreams back. They wanted to be powerful. loved. and understood and ariel had given them that so long ago. As the shouts raised into the night the thunderous calls of her followers brought their patron back from what they thought was the realm of the dead no they had awakened the monster back from the depths of its prison. Her hair scarlet and falling over her nude form her pale skin covered with tattoos her silver eyes pharrel and instinctive her smile so sinister they all started to bow before her.
Looiking upon them she knew what would had happened she looked to the moon and a black teir rolled down her cheek. She was the woman that had left all those years ago asleep within the form of the human known as illithiel.she always was aware of her realm and tried to contact her children each night. She never had gotten through the lord mask had given them the strength to protect themselves damn her husband. But what was done was done.
Stepping into the night a ghost like fog appeared about her body. soon forming into a dress. Soon looking over them saying out into the night. " You've remained loyal for so long in my absence... your souls are mine for all eternity my children of flesh." The mass of cheering had been the loudest it had ever been many had brought their children into the faith and now their were more than ever. She was proud of them though her plan had been set into motion much too late.,
She looked to them, all of them with love and respect in their eyes for the god killer... She ran her hands over the shoulder of the main priest. A being who had served by her side for many years. A choas demon male by the name of lucian, though he was no relation to her father he had bore the name name. She was greatful to him he had shead blood with her many times too many to count. He stood in awe of what she was now as she hugged him rightly.
" Thank you lucian you brought me back for my plans fastest you could I'll reward you when the time is right. " let go of him looking to those of the faithful of her cause. My children of flesh head my cry, leave the worshipers of the lord mask be, he is still my husband and father to my heirs. Every on promise me an oath of blood if any of you break it your souls will remained torturesd in the void of my prism forever!" She screamed into the night they all soon bowed saying her rites.
She smiled " My children let our plans be done!" She yel;led out with a cry as they celebrated her rebirth into the realm.

This is for the man who has taken me for his bride. His happiness is the only I care for. His love is the only thing that gives me purpose within this world of corruption and greed.I am forever his...my blood, my claws, my will are his to control. He is the one who tamed the raging sea and dispelled the deafening darkness that consumed my mind.
I love you my dearest Count. Now and Forever.

She had roamed the realms for years, she had finally come into the realm of order the conflicting force that worked side by side of the world of chaos of which she was born and ruled. She had made her way to the realm's edge walking through the barrier that separated them both. The seal on her left eye had shown within the darkness. She was comming to this realm to see if her husband would be intrested in this realm aswell knowing he had a choir of angels at his disposal, but having more souls on his side couldn't hurt any more. She had entered within this world unknowing into the what the order sages called the sacred spring. A holy forest to the people that lived in the realm to where the gods of their realm had come and relaxed bathed within the waters of the spring and replinished the energies that they had spent.
Ariel, was awestruck at the sheer beauty of the land. The grass was an emerald green, and the waters were not cloudy and the land was not filled with mist. She looked about seeing the diffrent colors of plants and the sound of birds cherping.... not the screach of the reptialian like birds of her home world.Marasra was notthing like the world of Orult the world she was exploring. She sighed softly as she looked to the waters of the pool soon leaning down scooping the water in her hands taking a sip of the cold water. The ripples soon sending out until it collided with the other side of the bank. Seeing the lotus that grew she smile seeing the white lotus until her eyes came across one that was the color of night the black lotus....walking to the bank closest to it looking at it making sure it wasn't a hilusination.
She moved letting her fingers run against the petals as she did so a being of light came from the forest. In the form of a white buck with soft steps its hooves leaving no indention within the ground. She smiled looking to the being knowing what it was by the aura it was giving off ...a god an order god at that. She stood looking at him with the look she had given all the gods to whom she had met in her life...her reputation had proceded her as the buck was ingulfed within a flash of light an erie white mist settled over the land as she continued to look on. The god was in a former of a man with long white hair and eyes as peircing blue that could haunt anyone's memory as she saw.
She did not speak, she just listened. As the god soon opened his mouth and spoke in a trifecta voice a soft and kind tone in each that sent shivers down her spine. " Why you have come to the world of order godkiller? Do you wish to end my life..." She looked to him and shook her head... " I came to this world to see what was on the other side..." Ariel spoke the truth she didn't come to spill the blood of a god this day unless Mir had crossed her path again. She kept her distance knowing that this god could kill her at any time he chose when her guard was not up she kept her negitive energy close at hand. Just enought to sheild her while she let the corruption out upon the forest if need be then she could kill him... but it didn't seem like it needed to come to that point...yet.
He took a step forward, " I do not believe this...a chaos demon comming into the realm I own and hunting for my blood." Even for a being of order he was being extremely uptight. Ariel soon let the black mist surround her as she built her power up ready to strike or defend if she saw fit she felt the ground beneath her buckele and quake. He was the god of the forest in this realm she knew if she took this one the land would be corrupted in this place and the people would be frightened. But nor did she care . Any god who crossed her she would have their blood in her goblet within the next sunset. Or would they be within the serpents stomach slowly digesting.
She smiled looking to him letting her body slowly transform, her hair turing a shade darker and her eyes becoming blood red and her skin slowly turned to rustic scales. She remained within the distance she was still in her humanoid form she looked to the god..." If I wanted you dead I would have swallowed you withinin that buck form that you had taken." She spoke in a truthful and justified manner her corruption slowly sinking into the ground the soil turing black and the grass and roots dying and decaying beneath her as she stood in place. Awaiting for the god to make his move.
" Then why didn't you do it godkiller? You have slottered my kind three of my kin on the otherside of the realm you have absorbed to remain alive in that form you hold." He spoke soon she nodded looking to him " Yes I took them to stay alive god of the forest.I let the serpent take hold and feed to survive...I want the blood of another not you to fead the second seal I have obtained." Ariel spoke again.
The god was angered to hear the truth come from her lips a beast like paws assumed his hands his face and features looked all the more pharrel. She ran the thought process through her mind over and over again she soon saw what he would do. He would come at her and sure enough he did with a huge swipe of his beast like paw he had come at her with blinding speed not even she could keep sight of it much longer he had taken a swipe at her with that paw his claws extending. He had taken her left eye. She had just gotten her full vision returned she had moved before he could blind her fully.
Leaping backward she came to her back hitting a tree he slowed his speed his rage subsideing as he saw her blood shead. She let the power of the flesh that bound him even if he were a god or mortal she could control it after comming into contact with it. She hissed deeply the flesh of her eye sealing as she placed the serpent patch over her eye. She ran her hand over her face the car left by him would be a perminate one. She soon came at him with a speed he had never seen before it doubled her own she was taken by her rage. She swiped at him he had dodged her moved closer and closer she came. Wanting to tear his throat out her darkness and corruption as she pulled her power from within taking him one swipe at a time. One of her claws finally cut his skin.
The meat of his arm was slowly deteriorating from the outside in soon passing through his flesh and bone. Then a intense heat soon taking it sealing the wound so that she could have more and more fun as she continued on this fight could go either way .

Ariel was sitting amongst the darker establishments she had been known to haunt her silver features glowing amongst the shadow's and dim light. Her form already looked like an artist rendering rather than a natural being. So be the life and wonders of a chaos demon. She had gone from the town whore into the very queen that her people feared and worshiped. She was nothing but a common warrior here and she loved the feeling of it able to walk the streets and not be mobbed or people running to you and asking for you to fix their problems....how pathetic was the worlds comming to?
She sighed remembering te long hard road out of hell...or atleast that what the humans would have called her life's path so far within the short skip in time that seemed to be an eternity in other's eyes. This establishment was one for the kind of the abyss and underdark but not many came to this establishment anymore many of the drow that came to this place had been wiped out in the war that had just ended between some of the houses. Another bit of female rivialry, Ariel found it humorious to see all the death surrounding the words of a female.
Constant change and conflict that is what her life was about before she had settled down. When she was killing anyone for any bit of money she could get, doing unspeakable things to men and women just so they could be pleasured. It put food in her belly and coin in her pocket. She wasn't ashamed, she never was and never would be of that time in her life. She even ran into some of her old customers here amongst the pipes and smoke. The herbs that came into these pipes and hookahs were exquiste and unparalelled amongs the lands. She sighed looking about with a grin along her pale features taking a hose she put her full lips around it.Taking a deep inhilation of the vapors, she leaned back against the wall laying one of her boots on the table. A memory came into her vision the day that changed her life... The day she had earned the name "God Killer".
It was a clear night the stairs were shining high amongst the heavens, the silver flowers in the land of chaos were in full bloom. And as all thing live and die this was true for the flowers.Falling down like sakura thise petals danced along the cool wind as the moonlight rained down the full phase making everything have an erie glow. She had prepaired herself for all the day she had done all the rituals the sisters of chaos had taught her to prepair herself for her death. She had cleansed her body within the sacred waters, had said every prayer she knew twice for good measure. As well she had not been touched by another being within the confinds of the moon. She had been sent to death for a taboo of reading knowledge that was beyond her grasp within the archives.A mistake which she thanks herself for each and every day the mistake that made her the strongest also giving her escape from the personal hell she had encountered.
As a result of her action the seal of the chaos serpent had been laid upon her body she had been told by the old preistesses that the serpent could only be killed by the gods of the Tempest,War,and Death.The preistess' told her that all three were comming on the full moon to kill her and the serpent within her. Also that she should fight them and show that she was honorable and would die like a warrior should. She was taken in by them after several of their female members had been pleasured by her within the simple confids of the tavern of which she worked they had seen the potential she had been given. But that wasn't the only thing she had been given.
She wore her armor it was hand me downs from the women of the organization her sisters...her mothers. The same oranization her mother had belonged to before her own death. She had been proud to belong to this place and now it was to be responsable for her own death. She would fight with her bare hands same as the gods it was ritualistic affair that she would be suprized if she won. The first to arive was the Goddess of the tempest a stormcloud as her mount. She appeared in the temple of the serpent her hair and clothes whispy like the thin clouds that lined the skies when they were calm.The fight was long and feirce the goddess toying with her as they went letting her pummel her body but to no avail, until the serpent came out within her. And then the fight only lasted a few more seconds. Her human form was no more the large snake coiled itself happily amongst the statues of cold marbel waiting for its next victum.
Hours pasted and her form reverted to the human form that it had possessed when the god of war came.The fight was swift he was suprized that she was able to survive the tempst's wraith.He had a look a fear and rage emblazzed amongst his features. The Goddess of the tempest was his twin sister same ruthless and power hungry technique she possessed within a fit of rage he shifted the wrong direction. He attempted to take her out but to no avail the serpent came out once again and constricted the so called god's body until he was nothing more than another meal.When it was over ariel shook her head staying within her human form. She wanted to fight normally and have herself fight the final god.
The god of death approached the battle was slow and tortureous, the God toyed with her trying to break her spirt.Taunting her on her past and what she had become and how they themselves had minipulated her from the very beginning so thet they could let the serpent out when the time was right so that they could rule the lands on their own. He was succedding and as it raged on she didn't let the snake take her form but she let the rage that filled her did. She had caught him off guard and killed him with her bare hands...she passed out after the ordeal and slept for a week strait.
The organization tried to kill her within her sleep but the magics protecting her from the serpent's seal was just too strong. But shen she had awoken she was blind as her punishment from the remaining gods. She sighed and worked from months on end and soon came into a spell that broke her curse and made her whole once more. This was the ordeal she had face and soon killed the members of the organizaton that had killed her mother and father.She became free and she had enjoyed life all the more sence then. Ariel's rememberence soon came to an end exhaling and inhaling the smoke all the more. Her experience with akasha's first lover Mir was something that brought her memories back up. She was stronger sence those times and was able to control the serpent and use its power instead of releasing it. She sighed she knew the way of the le'shay and it troubled her.
She was with some of her old customers they looked her over in disbelief that she was now a queen she smirked and told them that it was the truth. And all was seemed to be woven into the fabric of the past present and future as the fate's kept the world turning. She let her thoughts dwendling of her former mate akasha. What estacy her body was to her and how the light of heaven was in her eyes instead of the hallow echo of hell which haunted her own thoughts for the longest time.
She continued to listen to the warstories of the men around her enjoying the simple excapes of drinking and smoking her memories away. But it would take more than just these simple things to excape the memories that clawed their way into her caunchiousness. With the toughts that worked its way into her mind her blood lust and her normal lust had been awakened. She soon bowed to them leaving the cradling arms of the hookah behind. She soon made her way into the night to kill once more and to then return to the land of tears and lay beside her lover once more.

An erie silence soon takes the very core of Ariel. Sitting within the confinds of her home, dark and as dank as she was she looked as if she were the Moonlight that came from the heavens on a cloudy eve. Tormented by the thought of her sister being easily taken into the vice like grip of Pain and anguish. She contemplated in the study of her home sitting in the lotus position in a rather large leather chair.Soon looking about in wonder she was surrounded by the very knowledge of her people. The dim light let off of her features as she soon had an idea come into her mind. Eureka! She thought to herself as she soon stood moving to one of the many dark alburn wood bookshelves and let her fingertips trace along the spines of her books. Soon she came to the books of flesh crafting that she had studied so much when she were but a babe.
The book was worn and torn from the many years of toiling and scrolling. Only two had looked over the pages, her father and herself. The language was that of chaos many would just see blank pages but the pages were written in such an ink. Only the eyes of the beings of chaos could read it. The noble of the spider, those of the dragon isle, the angels in the fire, and the final the ones she belonged to the beings of the raging tempest of chaos. She let her silver orbs scan the secretive words. The seal that came into her sight made her sharp demonic features seem to brighten with the absolute glee. She soon closed the pages grabbing several of her other volumes of text. She was on a mission as she took a small tower of text with her heading to the spiral stairs moving down to her workshop.
The stairs were steel and made a hard hallow sound as she moved down them slowly and patiently. Her feet were bare as she was just relaxing at home. When she had came up with the devious thought that now was the tempest amongst her actions. A wicked smirk came across her features when she looked to her many toxic pets that lives within her twiztid playground. The floor was of hardwood the same deep color as the bookshelves that were in the study above. Many plants all poisonus for consumption and many that were carniverous lined the selves and the corners of the room. A large table stood in the middle with many seals for banishment and purification were carved into this massive peice of furniture. This room aswell was lined with knowledge aswell as her unlikely pets. She had fead many of them that were on the high shelves. But the ones that were set upon the floor and lining the walls fead upon the intruders of her inner sanctum. As she looked to them they seemed very content.
She was in glee to see that she had a project once again. She would have to get her lovely pale hands dirty once more but she didn't mind. This was something that she was born to do besides kill. Many emotionless dolls lined the back wall of her workshop it was absoultely terrifying to those who were innocent. Although she was the polar opposite of that by all means of the word. She stretched her body as she took the books opening them to the pages which she needed. She turned heading to the souless dolls that looked as if they were logs connected by wire. But they were filled with the elements needed to make any being within the mighty realms.
Picking it up off of the hook on which it was perched she moved quickly to the table placing it upon the surface. She soon was spread about the room working on gathering all of the supplies that she would need for such an action. She knew she would have to be very maticous to detail and that she would be worn out so completely when she is done that she would probably sleep from dusk to dawn.
But she didn't have the time she knew something was wrong so she was to work quickly and easily this would be a forty day job that she could have to work within a hour or two. She moved quickly getting everything and saying the incantation to make the body solid. It was in the form of a woman but it wasn't the venom she knew. She continued the magics that were within her were being released in a rapid rate. She was testing her own limits. She was remaking the venom she once knew and loved. Her sister and twin in every way she would not make her a weak blood demon. She made her into a being of the waters of chaos using her own blood to make as the templet for her own sister. She took her soul prism and screamed out in incantation to make the body live.
It would be souless for now all she would need to do was go the the oni no ashita with the souless doll. And soon she will have her sister once more. Her wound healing she went upstairs to get her souless doll some clothing the doll fallowed without fault. With Firey hair and silver eyes that glowed as hers did she moved without hesitation. Fallowing ariel down to the portal as she said another incantation to take them to master dodgen's forest. And with that done she opened her own silver eyes with a sly grin on her features. She took the hand of the doll and moved quickly over the sands of the esert toward the oni in just a blurr.
