[center][h1][color=gold] Servant Archer [/color][/h1][/center] [center][color=gold][i]Apartment, Innere Stadt, Vienna[/i][/color][/center] A call, echoing up to the Throne of Heroes as a desperate plea for salvation. Ah. In this place of heroes, of legends, many might desire to answer such a call to come back into the world once again to exert their might in the face of adversity. To prove themselves as the champions that they were in days long passed. Yet in this case, there was an artifact involved, one that only a few heroic spirits might hear the call of due to their ties to the object in question. Surely the great Ninurta heard the plea of this one master, whose desire was to bring the great hero into the world once more to fight their enemuies, but alas he was not the one to respond to the call she gave out. Rather, a different figure heard the prayer in this master's heart for the salvation of mankind through magic, and saw fit to grace her with their very presence. It could also say they were of course the first to respond to the call, actually. Within the summoning circle a great, blinding flash of light emanated and a brief gust of ancient-smelling winds, obscuring the view of what servant had just been brought into the world...and then, as the light faded, the visage of Philia's servant would stand before her. A tall woman, seemingly almost amazonian in height, stood before her with a sheer confidence and presence that left no doubts about who she was as a person and how she carried herself as an individual. Her light gray hair and blue eyes seemed regal yet striking, even under the gaze of the the waning moonlight pouring into the room though the window, whose curtains had been parted by the gust from the summoning. A sleek, black bow with a set of long, beautifully engraved outline of red wings stretching along its length was held in her left hand, seeming to briefly shimmer with a power as the light from the summoning died down. And as her appearance underneath ancient garments and armor readily showed, large and voluptuous bust and all, her gender was female, and rather attractive by many standards. [center][b][i]This was most definitely not looking like the ancient king the homunculus had attempted to summon.[/i][/b][/center] As the servant looked over to her master, seeing the homunculus' expression and seeming state of being before her, a great smile arose onto their face, one filled to the brim with pride and some excitement lingering on her lips. The smile grew even more as she noticed the fragment of the tablet of Ninurta's tale sitting next to her, leaning down to pick up the piece with a sort of nostalgia glimmering in her eyes for a moment before she clutched it in her right hand. [color=gold]"Heh. To use a fragment from the remains of my own great library to summon me! I must say i admire the thought, though to be fair perhaps you sought to summon the great King Ninurta instead of me?"[/color] the female servant said with a chuckle, looking back at Philia whilst her smile turned into a cocky smirk of sorts, tossing the fragment of tablet in her hand up and catching it again in her right hand before continuing. [color=gold]"Haha! Fear not! You are in the presence of a great hero still! The Greatest King of Assyria! The King of Knowledge! The God Slayer! I, who razed Susa and their grounds to ash with my might, and who is blessed and favored by all the gods of Assyria without question! I, who amassed the knowledge of the past in the greatest library the world ever knew! I, who learnt the magic of ancients past and crushed those who stood against me, mortal or divine! It is i, Ashurbanipal, who shall serve as the 'Servant Archer' in this conflict!"[/color] Archer said proudly, puffing her chest out at her proud proclamation of her titles and deeds to her master, as well saying aloud as that name in which she took so much pride and accomplishment, that name that scholars and kings alike should (to her) fear and quake in the presence of! [color=gold]"Ah, but to remain proper...are you indeed my master?"[/color] [@Crimmy][@endwaar]
