~Cynthia, Ritsa~

"...you have quite a lot of energy, don't you?" Cynthia said with a small sigh as she got to work on Ritsa. Thankfully for the maid, as soon as Cynthia started the hydra calmed down drastically. That didn't stop the child from her typical unable to sit stillness from very long, though. With a little more scolding and work from Cynthia though, Ritsa's own massage was done and she jumped back into the water, rinsing off and splashing her way back over to Fia.

"Alright you two, I'll wash your hair then." Cynthia continued. "And Ritsa, do try and sit still this time please."

~Fox, Gwynn~

"Very well, 'master'." The fox said with particular distaste, and left quickly. Gwynn didn't seem to question it. Truth be told though, the fox was feeling a little put out. Understandable, she supposed all things considered. She had tried to kill them all rather recently. Still, she thought she hadn't done anything to have Selvina upset with her...had she? After she had left though, and the two mages were alone Gwynn sighed.

Where should she start?

"You would be correct. And stop calling me 'Lady Gwynn' It's annoying." Gwynn replied in a fairly serious tone. "But I'll give you the short version of it. Maoin is no longer mine. I let her go and I really have no intent to get her back or even see her again if I can." She took a seat on the bed, folding her arms across her breast and resting one of her legs on the other. "Better that way for her, really. For the both of us." Despite that it seemed at least if her voice was any indication, the pirate was not doing so well.

"I'll skip over the details, but I haven't been in Sappho for the past two weeks or so. Went sailing. Got some ancient treasure...became part of a Harem, heh." She chuckled at that last bit. "But uh, that's irrelevant. Came back...got a letter." She pulled it out of her hat, handing it to Swen. "From a close family cousin. We were...fairly close...just about the only friend I had growing up." Gwynn laughed bitterly. "She's dead now, but that's not...well, what I want to see you about. J-just read it."

~Sorcha~

"But Gold is the best color." Sorcha said with a sigh. "Is my beautiful golden locks of hair too much for you, my Knight?" The dragon replied. "I suppose it is your dress though. I'm confident you'll look good in anything." She teased.

~Miren~

"W-well, I mean if you're going to insist..." Miren grinned shyly at Eith. She had never really been one to say no to others, unless they had really been directly harmful to her or others themselves. So she took the money and pocketed it. She'd make sure to only use it as a last resort though - for something she absolutely needed. But what did she do? Oh goodness, she wasn't entirely sure Eith would like what she did. Not a lot of people these days had time for it.

"O-oh, um, well usually I read...or take inventory. Clean and sweep. N-nothing too special and I'm not entirely sure you'd enjoy it..." Miren replied uneasily.

~Livia~

Tsk, she had been hoping for a larger reaction from Mugi. Fun ruined. Oh well.

"Aha, aren't you the observant one. She's attending to Fia and one of her new friends, yes." Livia said, motioning for Mugi to come inside. "Please, come in. I'm certain She'd be quite happy to see you once she finishes. I swear I've never seen that maid quite so...lovestruck before." Livia chuckled. "I'll make some tea, do sit and make yourself at home."

~Charlotte LaChance~

Cait was...recovering? What in the world had she missed? Something the great mothers mentioned when she visited came to mind. Something about her being a traveling hero or something. She forced her curiosity down. It wasn't any of her business, after all. With a sigh, she fumbled for a few seconds with something inside of her cloak, pulling out one of her vials. The liquid in it it was a muddy, dark color. She hadn't had enough time to chug it before she passed out.

"I see." Charlotte replied with a small frown. Delphi? Say hi to her? She didn't know anyone by that name. "I don't really have time for your games, Aislinn." Charlotte continued with a shake of her head. "I don't know anyone by that name." She brought the vial to her lips and drank half of its contents."And don't worry, this is a...sort of antidote to this little condition." It wasn't going to cure it immediately, but it would help burn the excess energy off. All of it. Would probably make her feel a little sluggish and tired.

"....hey, Aislinn." Charlotte continued. "I uh...I'm not really good with these sorts of things." Charlotte looked across the room. "Look, uh, both you and Cait have been pretty good to me and I-uh, well I know I'm not exactly the easiest person to get along with and all so I was sort of hoping one of you'd come by or something and well, I'm talking too much now and I should probably stop." The alchemist frowned. If Aislinn would have happened to look around the small abode, she'd likely have noticed that all of Charlotte's equipment had been more or less been put away. Materials that could have been preserved were stashed, and those that couldn't, were used.

"I'm leaving." She said with a sigh. "Your Great Mothers gave me more questions then answers, and while they helped a lot I just can't sit here on my butt any longer."

"Ha," Charlotte laughed though it was decidedly a bit weaker than she would have liked. "I'm fine. Just a bit too much...essence." Charlotte shook her head. "Hmm...not the first time it's happened. It's always a danger when trying new potions. Human bodies can only handle so much." Charlotte cast a glance to the tattoos that covered her body. "...that was a lot, though." It could be very likely if she didn't have the tattoos - she could have very well died form that amount of it. The tattoos seemed to be fairly good at burning off excess energy.

That said, her head was still swimming from the overwhelming sensory input.

"Just need to rest a bit." Charlotte continued. "...Where have you and Cait been for the past week or so, anyways?" She didn't want to really admit it, but she did sort of miss their company.

~Cynthia, Ritsa~

"There," Cynthia said with a small smile, finishing her massage and noticing Fia's rather enthusiastic glance. "That's all for today, Fia. I have others to attend too. Now wash. Once I'm done with Ritsa I'll take care of your hair." Upon hearing her name, the Hydra splashed her way over to where Cynthia and Fia were, hopping up on the edge of the bath and giving both of them a large, toothy grin.

"Me next!"

"Yes, yes." Cynthia said with a sigh. "You're next you impatient child." whether or not Fia would do as Cynthia suggested, the Maid decided to start giving Ritsa a massage as well.

~Fox, Gwynn~

"Swen...Sel, whatever your name is, this is important." Gwynn said with a small frown. "A-and a little...personal. Besides I've already eaten and I'm not sure this is dinner and fun times worthy discussion." Mostly, she honestly wasn't sure she trusted her...emotions to remain as calm as they seemingly were if they went somewhere to eat. It would likely be very clear to Sel that Gwynn wasn't really in the best shape right now. If one of her crew happened to see her, she'd never live it down, heh.

"If you don't want...er..." She turned her head to the fox, unsure of her name.

"Fox will do fine. This one is nameless." She said with a dismissive ear twitch.

"Right...if you don't want her here she could go get something and bring it back."

~Sorcha~

"Indeed, they fixed up your armor quite nicely..." Sorcha hummed. "Perhaps regal golds and blues would do nicely on your dress?" That wasn't a completely personal preference on her part, either. "Either way an armored dress of sorts sound lovely, Luna."

~Miren~

"E-eh?" Miren tensed slightly at the sudden hug, but relaxed well enough soon after. Oh goodness, had Eith always been this warm? She hadn't really ever noticed it before. "T-the store closes at eight at night, but I don't think we'll be seeing too much business." Miren said with a quiet sigh. "B-but anyways, y-you don't have to give me your money, Eith." Not that it wasn't welcome or anything - a little boost to her income would help quite a bit, even if it was just a once-time thing.

"I-I'm not sure what happened, really, but...if you need somewhere to stay w-well, I sort of agreed to be your servant so...you can stay here?"

~Livia~

Now, who could that be knocking on her door? Normally Cynthia would be the one to answer it, but the maid was currently busy with giving Fia a bit of relaxation.

"Mugi?" Livia hummed as she opened the door. "My, this is a pleasant surprise. If you're looking for Cynthia she is currently...attending someone in the baths at the moment."

Apotheosis

Hey there folks!

New goblin reporting for duty!~

Apotheosis

Sil

Name:
Silana

Gender:
Female

Appearance: Four foot tall, ugly piece of work...Actually, she's a bit smaller than most other goblins. Standing just around 3'5. Definitely not the tallest. Eyes are a bright blue color however though, and seem oddly luminous. She has no other distinguishing features.

Personality:
To say Silana's a bit of a...mystery would be an understatement. As far as her outward personality goes, she could be described as a very calm, level headed individual. She doesn't speak much, and often views others with a deadpan neutral expression. She'd rather spend more time reading books and time doing other things rather than conversing with others. That's not saying she's unfriendly, if spoken too, she'll respond - though usually in the most taciturn manner possible, and would help her fellow goblins if she can. She does tend to like being by herself though and constant interruptions tend to grate on her nerves.

She tends to work tirelessly towards her goals and ambitions, whatever they may be. While she is friendly, and overall amicable to those she allies herself with...if something so happens to be in her path on her way to one of said goals may the gods have mercy because she'll not give you any. Ruthless, merciless, and absolutely would not mind doing horrific things to those that are her enemies. A Sadist through and through - she takes great enjoyment in seeing her foes squirm. She likes being in control, and absolutely loathes being told what to do most of the time.

Past Life History:
Silana's past is a bit of...well, an odd one. Born into a heavily religious family, she was brought up heavily on such things. Religion, schooling, etc. Things such as those - and she was a very religious person growing up. At least, she tried to be despite her natural skepticism. She attended heavily religious schools, and until halfway through college she kept those values. Slowly though, she started to lose such moral principals. Perhaps simply because she grew tired of it, or her more scientific and academic pursuits caused her to question her own religious principals.

Whatever the case, she started looking for something else and quickly took a shine to some more...alternative religious practices. Wicca - even satanism, and she even explored the small religious resurgence of the Hellenistic and Norse deities. She could never really decide on one exact religion to stick with, but regardless she developed a love for some more occult practices.

She died quietly one day, no one is quite sure why but there is evidence she was attempting to try some magic ritual either believing it would work or just for giggles.

Gift:
Blessing of the Rotten:
Simply put, Silana has a predisposition towards magics that simply cause things to decay and rot. Of course, she currently has no skill with any of this whatsoever, and she will have to learn of it first. She can use other magic if she learns it, but any spells dealing with the above would be found easier to cast, as well as more potent, even if only slightly.

Other: Self-explanatory.

~Cynthia, Ritsa~

"You're tense." Cynthia said towards Fia as she removed most the maid dress she normally wore, though not deigning to take off her undergarments. She took a seat on the edge of the pool behind Fia. "You should relax or this isn't going to help much, Fia." She placed her hands on the phoenix's shoulders gently and started to work. Considering Fia's disposition it wouldn't be a good idea to do a full body massage at the moment. Just her neck, back, and shoulders would be enough for now. She could do the rest later, if the child wished.

For the first few minutes she did a small massage. Nothing too extensive, just a warm up. After that though, she reached for a bottle of skin lotion and started massaging it into Fia's skin.

"It will help cover any blemishes and such." Cynthia said as she quietly worked, her hands moving down Fia's back and sides.

Ritsa for the most part just splashed about in the water, seemingly quite enjoying the return to her natural environment.

~Fox, Gwynn~

The fox had to hold back laughing. Her master was a fool, wasn't she? Couldn't even tell the emotions of a single hound. Gwynn simply watched, having a bit too much happen at once for her to comment on it until after it was over. She watched Eith leave, unsure of what to say. She had never spent much time around the hound so she couldn't really comment, but it looked like Swen...Sel? Had something he...she, needed to smooth over with her.

"Eeerr....demon? Changed you? You're Swen?" She said, trying to wrap her head around the idea. It sounded...well, absolutely ridiculous. "Uhh...riiight." She laughed awkwardly, not sounding entirely convinced.

"She's telling the truth." Fox chimed in, standing up from her sitting position and walking over to the pair. "It's ridiculous and hilarious, isn't it?"

"Yeah, hilarious." Gywnn said with a small smirk. "Awfully cute, innit she?"

"...too much in the backend for my liking." The fox replied with a disinterested shrug. "Not enough on the upper parts of the tree, so to speak."

"Heh, maybe that demon could add a bit more?" The fox eyes widened a bit before chuckling in an impish manner.

"You, human, I like you."

"Well, I try to make all the cute girls like me." Gwynn chuckled, before realizing she had come here for some other reason than to flirt with a fox. "E-er, anyways. Swen. Sel. Whoever ye are. Remember when we broke into the library and whatnot? You got some information about my family and stuff, right? I uh, want to talk to you about that."

Gwynns expression took a darker tone, and her voice became oddly somber towards the end of her sentence.

"It's, uh, really important."

~Sorcha~

"Tsk, seriously kitten. There are things such as 'jokes' and 'teasing' in the world." Sorcha replied with a sigh. "Which is exactly what that was, you silly thing." Sorcha reached out, petting the kitten on the head. "And look at you, you're about as red as a tomato. It's obvious you're not comfortable little one, and I am not heartless nor will I make you wear something that you obviously aren't comfortable with." She handed the dress back to the kitten. "While you should be confidence in your appearance, forcing it will only lead to someone getting hurt in the end, Little one. Now wear the dress, and if you must, take that as an order."

As the kitten would likely put the dress on, Sorcha turned her attention to Luna.

"Oho...armored dress?~" The dragon bounced over to Luna and gave her a grin. "Did I hear that right, my Knight?"

~Miren~

Whew, after settling her finances and doing a few inventory checks Miren had officially opened her bookstore to the public! She was equal parts excited and nervous. She had no reason to be nervous of course, since this was her field of expertise but her little bunny heart got startled quite easily. She might very well die of fright one of these days, really! Oh goodness, that'd just be a terrible way to go wouldn't it? She should probably stop thinking about that and focus more on the bookshelves in front of her.

"E-eh?"

The first person she expected to come through the door, was not Eith.

"E-Eith?" The bunny nearly stumbled off of the step ladder as she turned her head towards Eith who was heading up the stairs. "A-ah! Welcome back, Eith. I-I wasn't entirely sure when you would get home so I made some food upstairs if you want some." The bunny said, hopping off of the ladder and towards Eith noticing the hound seemed a bit...down? She certainly didn't seem her usual self. "Are you...alright, Eith? I, E-erm, don't mean to pry but you seem a little...down."

~Charlotte LaChance~

"Hey hey!" Suddenly, she was tackle hugged from out of nowhere.

"GAH - Flora - I told you not to bother me while I'm doing something!" She nearly knocked over a beaker of a rather corrosive substance that would have very likely eaten through the stone floor.

"But you were glaring again. Glaring is no good, lottie."

"I Glare at everything." Charlotte said, shoving the other girl off of her.

"Wah, don't bully the flower!" She playfully giggled as she stumbled backwards onto the bed.

"And my name is 'Charlotte' not 'Lottie', and you are most definitely not a flower."

"But my name is Flora. It's a flowery name!"

"It's also the name of a very annoying person who should be very wary of what they eat next."

"Wooow, death threats already. That's the fastest someone has resorted to that." She gave a smug grin, as if proud of that accomplishment.

"That isn't something you should be proud of." Charlotte replied with a small frown...before immediately being poked in the forehead.

"Your glaring again."

"...I really don't like you."

"Lies, dear madam! You would have kicked me out already!~" She giggled in a fairly dramatic fashion. In response, she simply glared again and whacked the back of her head and shoved her out the door to their dorm.

---

"...you were asking for it..." She grumbled to herself, finally becoming conscious of her surroundings again. Her entire body felt like she was on fire and she felt so...thirsty and weak. Well, what did she learn here? Don't drink mysterious liquids that are full of some sort of essence or you could die. Hell, the average person probably would have died. It was likely the only reason she was still alive was because she often experimented with such things, and her body had built up more of a resistance to housing a lot of essence at once.

"Ais...linn?" She said, eyes adjusting to the light of the cave. Not exactly who she was hoping to see, but she was grateful for the drink regardless. She grabbed the entire thing, quickly gulping down the contents of it in a matter of seconds.

"Urgh...note to self...that was a terrible idea." She attempted to stand up, but dizziness quickly destroyed any notion of actually standing for now. After stumbling and nearly falling over again, she instead took to sitting down, leaning against Aislinn. "Thanks..." She quietly replied. She would have likely been find on her own, but it was at least good to have someone else around in a situation like this.

~Cynthia, Ritsa~

"If you would both disrobe." Cynthia said as she walked over to a shelf in the room that contained a few herbal lotions and other items she would be using. "We will get started." Ritsa didn't seem to need much convincing. The hydra quickly pulled off her toga, having some trouble pulling it over her head even though she hardly had need to remove it in such a manner. She quickly pulled off her sandals before immediately diving into the pool of warm water. The hydra resurfaced only a few seconds later on the complete other side of it. It was likely rather obvious she was enjoying the water.

"Join your friend in the tub, Fia." Cynthia said in the most calm and re-assuring manner she could. It wasn't going to be a full-body massage. Mostly an upper body and back one.

~Fox, Gwynn~

"You're not Swen either." Gwynn said as Sel stumbled into the room. "And that fox is yours? She's got a mouth on her, I'll give ya that but I don't really care at the moment." Gwynn walked over to Sel, nearly putting herself right in the other girls face. "I take it you're the girl that wanted to meet me then? I'm flattered and all but I don't have time for that right now. So where's Swen?"

The fox merely listened for now, a small smirk forming on her lips as she drew a few more charms. She wondered how this would turn out - however it did though, it was certain to be quite entertaining.

~Sorcha~

The dragon was very visibly holding back giggles by now.

"Who's a good kitty?" Sorcha reached out, and gave Maoin a pat on her head, ruffling her hair and making very sure to give her ears a nice good rubbing. "You're so cute, you know that Maoin?" Sorcha continued with a light chuckle. "But I did say I would prefer you being confident at all times, little one. Even if you have to wear such a thing." She continued with a sigh. It was a bit mean, yes, but she wanted to see if the kitten could wear such a thing confidently.

"Tsk, and don't worry Luna. There's something else. I just wanted to make sure it fit correctly before giving it to her." She handed Maoin the actual dress now. "Go on, try it on Little One."
