[h2][color=DarkMagenta]Raven Silverlight[/color][/h2]
[@Belle]

Raven smiled slightly at the girl's question. She was learning the rules of the fae fast, her answer proved that as she let her true question be layered in meaningless pleasantries. [color=DarkMagenta]"For now you can call me Raven. Though I do have a fondness for my noble title."[/color] She said with a smile. The message within was also self evident.

[i]I don't need your fear but I revel in it.[/i]

Evidently though she was not learning the new rules fast enough. [i]Jessalyn[/i]. A pretty name, most fae would have jumped at the chance to hear those syllables. Raven however was not most fae. True names had there uses, only a fool didn't know that. Raven herself had the true names of several dozen fae in various courts. Spies and allies for when her luck turned. However she'd never had any interest in mortals, either as servants or informants. The fae rulers were much more careful about human's than they were other fae. There was virtually no chance of a human coming into the possession of anyone in a position of power if another fae knew there true name and the nobles had ruthless ways of finding such things out.

[color=DarkMagenta]"Jessalyn..."[/color] Raven tasted the name on her tongue. It was sweet and heavy, the girl's true first name. [color=DarkMagenta]"Jessalyn take a step forward."[/color] Raven ordered and the mortal girl did so. True Raven did not have her full name but even one of three was powerful, especially the first name. Though if she truly wished it was resistible. The only way to force someone to submit to your will completely was to possess there entire true name.

Raven looked down at Jessalyn's guide dog. [color=DarkMagenta]"Lysander... roll over."[/color] The dog also complied though he looked extremely unhappy about it. A true name was easier to work on an animal because it usually only had one, though with the less complex animals who had no sense of self a true name held no meaning.

[color=DarkMagenta]"A name is a very dangerous thing in this world, it represents who you are, your spirit, your soul. Using it any fae no matter who they are can command your actions. [i]Never[/i] ever again tell anyone your name. It will mean your the end for you."[/color] Raven had no interest in Jessalyn's name and so she did what very few fae would ever do unless under extreme duress. She reached out and placed her hand on Jessalyn's forehead. [color=DarkMagenta]"I give you back your name."[/color] No sooner had the words exited her mouth than the name [i]Jessalyn[/i] vanished from her mind. She could still remember speaking it but in her mind the name was foggy, like it was part of a portrait that had been smeared. Raven then did the same to Lysander. She knelt down and scratched him behind his ears and spoke the words again.

[color=DarkMagenta]"You had better hope that dog can learn to answer to another name. I would hate to see your guide dog turned on you by a fae far less friendly than myself."[/color] Raven turned and started to walk away. [color=DarkMagenta]"If we want to make it to our destination before dark we'd best be moving on from this place. Follow my footsteps.[/color] Raven's house while in the Spring Court was actually along the Fall Border. Not the safest place to be with the Wylde Hunt about to ride but she had certain protections in place around it to ensure her safety. It was a bit of a trek which Raven usually made in the air but exercising her legs was never a bad thing. You never knew when you would have to run from something.
