[h3][center]~Ancient Castle: Interior ~[/center][/h3] Katherine - Meowka - Sorcha - Sol [hr] [color=aba000]"Aha, it's fine little one."[/color] Sorcha replied, patting Sol on the head. [color=aba000]"Just stick close to me, alright? Ah...I know."[/color] The dragon turned around, giving Sol an eager grin. [color=aba000]"...have you ever been flying, Sol?"[/color] She asked. [color=aba000]"Luna's a spoilsport and won't let me have my fun. Buuuut...I think I can give you a flying lesson, hehe!~"[/color] The dragon was definitely looking forward to finally having someone to fly around it seemed. That is, perform absurd aerial acrobatics probably. Eith, and Miren [hr] Miren frowned, hopping closer to Eith and giving her a tight hug. [color=6ecff6]"H-hey...don't be so down."[/color] Miren gave her a smile. [color=6ecff6]"Don't worry about it, alright? I'm sure we'll find something. Lets go back out front, alright? Get out of this gloomy place...I don't think we'll be finding anyone else here. We'll wait on the others out front, alright?"[/color] Miren grabbed Eith's hand and slung her bag over her other shoulder before gently pulling her back towards the hallway. Eith was free to do whats she wanted too, of course. Maoin [hr] There was silence for a few seconds as the weight on top of Maoin shifted. The snake in her vision seemed to lift its head in a contemplative gesture before lowering itself again. It slithered closer to Maoin's face, and it wouldn't be farfetched to think it was about to bite her again. It was only a few inches away from Maoin's face. It stared straight into her eyes as the seconds ticked by. Finally, it opened its mouth and.... It's forked tongue brushed harmlessly against her nose as it gave Moain a seemingly happy little smile, if such a thing was possible for a snake. [b]"...This one has watched since you arrived."[/b] The voice continued. Now that you weren't being tossed about like a ragdoll, the voice was clearly human, to an extent. The voice was slow and had a husky tone to it, though definitely not out of uncertainty. If anything, their words carried something of a purpose to them. [b]"Not many people would come to this evil place."[/b] It continued, the weight atop Maoin shifting as the clawed foot removed itself from her, and the serpent retreated from her vision. [b]"But the lizard is not something this one wants to...cross paths with so it decided to observe. It has...been awhile since this one was in the stone room. The closed-off yard is where this one has taken to sleeping recently. Away from that land-lizard in the gardens."[/b] If Maoin happened to collect herself enough to get up, she would finally see her assailant. [hider=Chimaera/General appearance][img]http://mgewiki.com/images/9/9a/Chimaera2b.png[/img][/hider] It was now definitely a she, and most definitely not a snake lady. The woman was muscular, standing at nearly six foot three, towering over the poor kitten. She had a messy hair of wild, unkempt yellow hair that nearly resembled a mane of golden fur. She had red, cat-like pupils and dark skin. Two long goat horns curved alongside her head, with two feline ears sitting between them, adeptly listening to any noise made nearby. The next thing she'd notice was likely her body. To say the woman was well built was an understatement - it was easy to tell the musculature, considering how little she was wearing. A few straps of cloth and metal, covering just her vital area's and more important bits. Her forearms were covered in a fine helping of yellow-gold fur, with retractable claws and her legs seemed to match. Likely the oddest thing though, was that there was a snake growing from her backside that was staring at Maoin rather happily, despite the somewhat intimidating appearance of the serpent. [b]"...so, what is the housepet doing here?"[/b] The question seemed directed to Maoin. [hider=Actions] Answer her. [i]Probably not a good idea to anger this woman[/i] Flee [i]Probably not a good idea. She looks part feline, and obviously has much greater physical ability than you.[/i] Ask her what she is? [i]...do you want to offend her?[/i] Flirt? [i]...I mean, if you want. I won't judge[/i] [/hider] Luna, Marie [hr] [color=silver]"Heh,"[/color] Marie smugly grinned. [color=silver]"Obviously gods are imperfect. But I'm not a god...therefore I am perfect. I am something much better than their out of date rules. A riddle though? What are you, a sphinx?"[/color] Marie chuckled with a dismissive huff. [color=silver]"You don't believe me, do you? Fine then. I shall solve this riddle of yours and when I do, you will admit I, Lucia Maria Lucifer am perfect."[/color] Even though she said that though...riddle? Lucia hadn't ever answered a riddle in her life, but as heir to the throne of pride...she was perfect. She couldn't simply not answer a simple riddle. ... A few seconds passed, and she still couldn't come up with an answer. Seconds stretched into minutes and Marie was starting to sweat a little. What an absurdly long riddle! Weren't riddles usually only a few phrases long? She couldn't even remember all of it! The silver haired demons smug grin faltered slightly. [color=silver]"Hmm...Armor?"[/color] That was a logical conclusion, but it couldn't be that. [color=Silver]"Hm, no no..."[/color] As Marie worked on solving the riddle, Luna wouldn't notice anything too out of place. The place was mostly abandoned, no birds or other small wildlife like the rest of the place. Something however, seemed to move just in the corner of her eyes, deeper into the gardens. It looked like some sort of serpents tail? [hider=actions] Wait. [i]Marie's struggling with the riddle.[/i] Follow whatever that was. [i]Who knows, curiosity has never been bad for anyone.[/i] Leave [i]That's probably a bad idea to follow that thing.[/i] something else? [/hider]
