Adria offered a small smile for the defender. Watching him fight with her blessing written on his body with invisible ink. The cracking of wood against wood sounded like beating dreams of fate. A duel written as if it were a story begging to be read. To see what blessing would do against the experience, to see if she truly could help change the way life could be. To not see the world in a consent state of warring nations. Kin against kin in a senseless duel, hate sparking their hearts to push forward towards the rivers of blood. She only hoped that she was able to help him just enough.

For each dodge and strike he made, she silently cheered as he danced like he knew each action. She did this, she provided the chance to make this fair. Now it was up to him and him alone to face the monster. Her armored talons creased the child cheek with tender care. If she could protect this mortal with blessings then maybe she could protect her child with her power. Protect the world with her strength. She just needed more.

Yet as she was lost in her thoughts, a sudden thud echoed from the floor. Her pure gaze lingered on the defender and giant. This was his chance, there beneath his boot laid a strong beast against the blessed. Now all he needed to do was end it. Finish this story so that they would learn that they were not easy prey. They invaded his home, slew his people, blood must be answered with blood. This is what is needed, to stop those who keep poisoning the world. 

It was simple, to stop a predator, you either must end it or make sure he never hurts again. This warrior has the chance to do it. It was simple, with one. Hard. Crack. She held her breath waiting for the moment to answer their crimes. Yet, there came the words. A moment of pride, pride that she saw from god kin. A frown formed on her face as she backed away as she watched him order the pack wolves to flee. Yet she knew the truth, a wolf won’t bow to a dog until blood is drawn.

She watched as the giant lunged forward. Choking him with boiled rage, a rage she knew all too well. She knew that look, it was the same look that the fog showed her. The face of a monster that relished conflict and cruelty. The guardian had lowered his shield and now, the monster tore right through. A frown formed on her face, she did what she could. She would refuse to force the actions of another. Even if it meant the life of a guardian 

She prepared to visit man, ready to provide the dying a comfort to match his sacrifice. A reward, a blessing for him and him alone. Ready to build something in his memory, just then before she could even step out, a familiar presence echoed. Her own kin. The shining lights, the echoes of music heralding an approaching god. Her eyes lingered on her god kin, the sparkling god as he stole the show. Her eyes then darted all over the place as noticed the little hints that this valley belonged to a god kin. 

With a little sigh she backed away in darkness, humming softly to herself as she took a moment to flee from the scene. Breaking the wind with her wings as she slowly hovered above the scene, watching the scene unfold with a curious glance. For once it seemed like there was another sibling that cared for creation. Or perhaps it was for their own little desire to have a community. Or… Followers. Perhaps that’s how she gains more power to help, to stop death. Perhaps that is what she needed.

Yet before she could fly away, her ear twitched and her nose wrinkled, then her eyes settled on him. The glorious sparkled god. Shimmering like the stars that surround the sky, as she locked eyes with their golden gaze. They were something to beholden to. Unlike her other siblings they seemed to always be something dramatic. Even she couldn’t deny the little smile on her face. She offered an easy look towards them. Playfully scoffing the remark about her design.

[color=9e0b0f]“Not as bold as you.”[/color] She offered a tease. [color=9e0b0f]“Then again no one is. Even among gods, you are truly a star.”[/color] She lightened the mood with a careful gaze, already studying the best way to neutralize them, if they posed a threat to the sleeping child in her arms. [color=9e0b0f]“Believe me, the funeral chic is better than what fog or the visions offered me.”[/color] She reminisced as she was certain he received the vision of their perfect domain. Yet her smile faded completely.

[color=9e0b0f]“Neither.”[/color] She explained her tone rising as if she was lifting both a shield and sword. She watched carefully for a moment longer. “The child raises no concerns to you. Make sure curiosity doesn't kill the cat.” She warned carefully before her fist loosened back into a freely opened hand, tending to the child’s needs with a soft smile on her face as she listened to their babbling, as it did make her laugh slightly, though it was almost silent. Like the peace before a battle. 

[color=9e0b0f]“It’s true we haven’t formally introduced one another. Though I always called you the sparkling one.”[/color] She teased as she listened to their name with a curious gaze for a moment longer. They were certainly strange, though she did like the creativity behind the trees they made. She paused for a moment thinking about their question, before she smirked in response.

[color=9e0b0f]“That depends. Do you always flatter your prey before asking more dangerous questions?” [/color]She glanced in recognition at his question while her pure pearl eyes eyed him carefully, this time she circled around him with the ease of her beating wings. [color=9e0b0f]“To be honest, I wasn’t certain you would come.”[/color] She answered his question with a careful glance. [color=9e0b0f]“I didn’t know you had a village. All I knew was that blood was being spilled. Unnecessary blood.”[/color] Silently she gazed over to the field where the three changelings suffered their fate to the hands of cruelty.

[color=9e0b0f]“For that, I cannot ignore.”[/color] She remarked as she glanced towards the cannibals with scoff. Perhaps if they had a better reason other than for a cruel sin. Her wings filled the silence for a moment longer until she turned back towards him. [color=9e0b0f]“Please undress the honey from your words and tell me directly what I can answer for you.”[/color] She stated clearly. Showing a little distaste for flattery.
