Catherine Lillasteen, the Assassin


@Jackson Monty

Catherine woke to soft melodies of a flute of some sorts and the feeling of her stub of an arm still burning with pain. Her face twitched with the effort to open her eyes and confront the flute player.

She didn't dare open her eyes though, and instead tried to take in the environment around her without sight. She took in a breath through her nose and found to smell sap and forest smells.

We're was she? And who took her here? Her mind raced back to when she was so very close to death and a man had scooped her up and now she was... Well we're ever she was.

Catherine opens her eyes slowly and almost thinks she is dreaming. An old man was playing a pan flute and He was in a tree. He looks way to skinny to even consider climbing one but here he is. But at least he didn't look dangerous.

She flicked her of blue eyes to her left side to see her arm patched up with spider silk like stuff. It sure was not gauze but at least it stopped her blood from spilling out.

She then turned her stare up to the man and barred her teeth and growls. "Who the hell are you? And were am i?!" She was about to try and take out one of her weapons and found that there were none. Oh just great, Catherine thought never taking her eyes off of the old man.

Sylvanus heard a voice from down below him, looking down he noticed the girl he was in charge of caring for had woken up at last, putting down his pan flute he looked at girl "Well.. well.. well" he said in a sing song tone of voice, pausing for a moment to think "Shell.... nut shells...? Maybe quail...? what do you think?" he shrugged, the song could wait, for now it was up to him to uphold his end of the deal "So little lady" looking back to Catherine "Before i answer you, you must answer me three things" another short pause "Or maybe four things... no no, three is good, so yes three things. First, how did you lose that arm, second, what do you want to eat for diner, i myself was thinking nuts and berries, and third.... what is your favorite color?

@Jackson monty

Catherine raised an eyebrow as the old man started to blab on about nuts and quils for what ever the reason was. She was about to say something but the man shrugged dismissing his thoughts and continued on. She growls with impatience and starts to drum her fingers on a root.

He had started to blab about three questions that took way to long to finally reach his lips. He may be crazy, as it seemed, because he asked pretty stupid questions. She bit her lip trying to find a way out of this, but we're would she go with her injurys? It was way to big a risk so she just sank deeper into the roots to be more comfortable. She clicked her tongue in defeat and crossed her legs as she lay on the roots.

"Well first off my arm doesn't concern you so don't ask. Second, I don't care what I eat, as long as it's not poisoned. And thirdly my favorite color is black. Now enough about me, who are you Gramps?"

She offered a forced smile as she waited for him to answer.

Elizabeth snapped to attention instead of her fearful expression and she looked at the newcomer. She narrowed her eyes. "What do you want?" she asked.

Sylvanus Shook his head "Now now, I can count too, one, your arm does concern me as i am the one keeping you from bleeding out and the if a difference in how i treat a stump, tree or limb, if it was hacked by an ax or bit by a honey badger" he played a note on his flute, it made a rather sweet sound "three, my favorite color is brown, for brown is the color of life after all" he played another note "and two, then it's settled, mushrooms it is, of how i do love a good slippy jack, or would you prefer something more to die for?" he played another note this one lower then the other two notes he had played

Catherine moved her hand over her stub of an arm and frowned. She quickly moved her hand from it, and straightened her back as she rest on the root beneath her and squinted her eyes to get a better look at the old man.

"I will tell you one thing sense you're so nosie. After I'm healed I'm going to make the person who done this to me wish he was never born."

She smirked as she looked down to the roots again as if lost in though in what to do to Levi. When trailed her eyes back up the tree in a new wonder. It had no scratches and was just gorgeous. She reached up and layer her palm out flat. She then turned her attention back to him.

"Anywho, what do you mean by healing trees? What else can you do?"

She might as well try and make I'm spill his guts but, that may not happen. Again she would try. He then mentioned death which set her lips rising to reveal a wolf's grin.

"If you do you'll pay the price Gramps, so I'd watch it."

Avary was grasping the sword looking at the men. "W-what do you want?" He asked, his voice shaking from shock of the recent events.

Sylvanus smiled back from up in the tree "Then we have struck an agreement, you looked like the type of person who liked mushrooms" Sylvanus played the three notes he had before again, and started to climb down the tree like a squirrel. Once he reached to ground he stood up, standing only about 5 feet high, his curly blond hair had dirt and twigs in it, same thing with his long beard that reached half way down his chest. His green eyes looked at Catherine, sizing her up to get a better look now that he was back on the ground "So, Catherine i believe your name was" he puffed out his chest and sucked in his gut, which gave him a disproportionate look, he said in a rather high pitched voice "I am Sylvanus of the wilds, you can call me Syl, Sylva, Vanus, or Wild Anus" letting out a deep breath, he continued "And thats was my best intimation of drunken fairy, those little buggers have quite lovely voices, i need more practice though, i think that was more like a intoxicated bird though, what do you think" he brushed off the dirt from his tunic which was made of a wide variety of different leaves and finally said "Oh, i almost forgot to intro my friend, this is Grover" he patted the tree with his hand

Catherine nodes as the old man agrees to have mushrooms for supper. It actually sounded pretty good instead of the crap she had to dig up around the castle. She actually couldn't remember a time when told sounded appetizing.

"Can you also make unions? Yeah that sounds good."

She licks her lips in content and looked back up to see the old man climbing down. He hopped of and she spotted the filth that tangled up in his long beard and hair. If he were less filthy, he could have once been described as handsome. Well maybe. Catherine thought as she eyed him up and down.

Suddenly he said her name. It was crisp as the words came to her ears, as if a bell went of in a school. How did this old man know her name? She didn't remember telling him it, and if she decided to she would have told him a fake name. Catherine shrugged and dismissed the question a little. She might have said it when she was passed out.

The man then started to introduce himself as Sylvanus and other nicknames she could pick from. Instead, she had a better one. She smirked and put her arm behind her head in a joking manor.

"Nah I think I'm gonna call you Gramps. You ok with that, Gramps?"

Catherine raised an eye brow suddenly as Sylvanus started to talk about fairys and some other stuff she really didn't care for. But nothing less, he was alright. When he stopped to wip something form his tonic he seemed to remember something. He then said the most weirdest thing he has said through there conversation. He was friend's with a tree?

She craked a half smile as she eyed him and his "friend". This guy was definitely crazy...

"You srious Gramps?"

"Where are my manners?" Still grinning, Rais greeted the group with a flourishing bow. "I am Rais Al-Mudra, more famously know as The Golden King" He stepped closer. The girl tending to the wounded one had taken on a rather serious face, while the boy aimed a blade at him.

"Look at you shaking like a leaf just like these sorry sods!" He chuckled at the boy as he pointed to his men. "You should put that down before you hurt yourself." He turned his attention to the girl. "You, on the other hand, have such a fierce look in your eyes. I love it!" He chuckled again. "Anyway to answer your shared question. I would like the lot of you to surrender yourself into my custody. A rather simple request, no?"

Sylvanus smiled at being called gramps, even if he was a young 64 year old, sounded like she had taken a shine to him. At her remark about his friend he said "ah have you noticed? I know it's hard to imagine that a great and might tree like this would deem me fit to be his friend, but it is true I assure you" he smiled widely "We have been friends a long time isn't that right Grover?"

There was a sound that was akin to wood snapping that came from the tree

"Hmm... what do you mean that's not what's she is talking about?" Hello looked up at the tree "But she just sai..."

More noises from the tree

"Ohhhh, I see what you are saying" turning back to Catherine he laughed "I am sorry, you don't know do you? Ok this is going to be good! You might want to take a step back" Sylvanus played a note on his pan flute that sounded rough and broking

The tree stood up, it's branches seemed to meld together to form arms, it's roots seem to take the shape of legs and in the trunk the bark turned into a crude face

Levi walked to one of the dead bodies and puzzled. "A samurai? Don't mind if I do." He unloaded the mask, armor and blade. Minus the helmet, considering it was split in two. Levi proceeded to place them on himself."Damn. Dressing up like this is fun. No wonder they love These things."

Catherine tilted her head a bit as Sylvanus looked to the tree with a grin as he talked to it like an old friend. Who knows what mushroom this guy had this morning, but she keep quiet.

Suddenly she hears a voice that is rough and very unnatural speaks. She turns her head to the voice and finds that it's coming from the tree.

"What in the world..."

Catherine says but is cut of as Sylvanus tells her to take a step back. The tree began to move, which sent her into a panic. She quickly slid of the roots with a groan as she remembers her arm. She lets out a hiss of pain then walks over to Sylvania with a limp in her step as she clutched her arm.

Catherine then looks back to the tree to find that it was standing on two legs and a face set in an old human grin. Her mouth dropped and turned to Sylvania with a tremble in her voice.

"How in hell is this possible?!"

Rais stopped dead in his tracks from the girl's stare. Gone was the wild grin and confident swagger he usually carried on his various raids, battles, and other such excursions. This feeling, this thrill, he got when he looked at this girl's fierce eyes was something he thought he only felt when he found an opponent worth fighting. She had intrigued him now, this was definitely turning out to be a profitable trip in a way he didn't expect. He strode past the boy to her and knelt bringing himself to her and the injured girl's level. A small, genuine smirk graced his lips as his own golden eyes met hers.

"I can understand your apprehension. We are after all a bunch of armed men asking for your custody while your home is besieged by enemies, but I think you'll find that I am your only salvation. I don't know who you all are but I can tell you're important, nobility at the least, and you'll fetch a good ransom when this dies down. Now I'm no monster, you won't come to harm in my care. And.." He looked past her to look towards the injured girl. "I could save her life. But, only if she were in my custody, a damaged girl isn't profitable after all." He looked back to the golden-eyed girl but addressed the boy and the old man all the same. "So does that change your answer at all?"

Elizabeth kept her head held high, the chain of her burned kingdom's pendant gleaming, the pendant hidden by her dress. Were one to pull down the back of her dress in addition, they would find her secret. She stared the man, probably only about her age, but not much older, down, her expression protective, waiting for Lucien to speak. She had to defend the royal family. Her full lips pursed as she stared the silver-haired young man down. She did not fear him. Not much made her fear anymore except losing those precious to her all over again, and indeed the royal family had become quite precious to her. "If you don't mind I must tend to her..." She began to summon her magic and placed it to the wound on the unconscious princess.

After Levi had calmed down, he found logic in the choice of finding his family. He kept his new armor and katana, and stepped back to the tunnels. He almost walked directly to a band of thieves, it seemed, but he stopped, then though better of it, and stepped back into the tunnels with a booming voice. "Leave the royal family alone." He drew his katana, and the sound of it slicing through the air was heard. "Or I'll make you."

While his men quaked at the sound of the unknown voices, Rain simply grinned again. " So this is the royal family huh?" He looked from the boy to the bleeding girl, guessing they were the culprits. The old man didn't look like royalty at all, and the fierce-eyed girl didn't carry herself like a royal. "Well, I'm curious about what you are now girlie. Maybe you'll tell me after I take care of this little interruption. He turned to gaze into the darkness of the tunnel and chuckled.

"By all mean stranger, come and make me."

Elizabeth nearly flinched at his asking who she was. All she did was clench her fists while trying to heal the princess. She did, however, begin to quicken her breathing involuntarily. Her kingdom's pendant, her father's pendant while he was alive, fell out of the front of her dress as she bent over Amalia, her hands on her stomach gently. People had been searching for survivors of her kingdom for years now, and if word got out there WAS a survivor.... She squeezed her eyes shut for a moment.
