“Awfully convenient.” Julene replied with a dismissive grunt. “But no, not particularly. The folks here are friendly enough but, well…” Julene paused for a moment, pouring some water into some mugs as she’d turn back to the cooking meat and some water into a pot that she would add a few vegetables too. “I don’t do well talking to them.” She shrugged. “Can’t say I blame ‘em. I’m not the friendliest sort.”

There wasn’t any malice in Julene’s voice, at least, so it didn’t seem like she thought less of the people and she was speaking more as a matter of fact it seemed.

“Right about that though, can’t change the past. Would be nice though, considering what those idiots in the previous era did to the world, hmph.” She’d grumble, throwing a few more bits of wood onto the fire.

Forest of beasts

The beast shrieked loudly, Luna’s ethereal chains breaking the instant Aleksiya’s spear of ice would rend its remaining flesh from its bone, ripping a hole straight through its shoulder. A horrid shriek followed as the beast brought its beak down, slamming into Giselle and knocking her clean across the clearing like a doll, but she had achieved her objective.

Down a wing and now limping slightly, the undead avian shrieked again as it attempted to flap its wings, failing to find any air as its lame one uselessly laid now at its side.

So it chose the only option it had left. It reared its head back a shrill cry as it inhaled…turned its beak towards Aleksiya and shrieked. Another stream of razor wind, more powerful this time ripped across the ground, shredding the ground and scraggly trees around it. It followed by frantically scrambling along the ground, what would have been a fearsome charge reduced to a pitiful looking, half crawl as it opened its maw and would attempt to slam its beak around the vampire.

The massive beast growled as blood obscured its vision. The vampries blade found its mark, slashing into the hide of the beast, turning aside one of its paws as he’d parry the blow. The second soon followed, the beasts momentum not allowing it to stop itself as the blade cut another long gash along its paw…but both were shallow, and barely any blood seeped from the wound. Its body twitched lightly in a mildly unnatural way.

Ultimately, the beast charged past Argus a few feet, giving the vampire a few brief moments to think about his next move as the creature would turn to face the vampire once more, snorting aggressively as it seemed unfazed by the injuries on its paws. But it remained docile only briefly as it would rear up on its hind legs once more.

Charlotte, the witch, seemed mostly entertained and was writing in her journal a mere few feet away from the fight.

"Fruits and seeds...I see." Simple enough request. She'll just take it out of Lord Reginald's dinner requests since this was his fault she was now saddled with quite a troublesome creature. As for actual care? Well, it'd probably be fine. She would buy a cage for it, she couldn't very well let it sit on her head all the time, especially when working. "Well, if you happen to have a cage - the most luxurious and expensive one you have on you I'm sure lord Reginald will be more than happy to pay top dollar for it. I can't very well work with this thing sitting on my head all day." Mella responded, flashing Reginald a look that clearly indicated that it was his fault.

"I suppose I will also have to add those to the shopping expenses when we finish our shopping. Which I very much would prefer to get back to then dallying about with an avian making a nest on my head."

It wasn't hard to tell that the witch had stopped being interested in the fight the moment her eyes drifted to the barrier. She was almost ready to thank her, but before she could things got...complicated, to say the least. A bag of flour, of all things, came and completely obscured the terrain. Whoever did that really didn't understand that if they couldn't see outside, she couldn't very well see inside the dust cloud either!

She was about 90% sure she could still aim but what a moron!

Bag of flour aside, the witch had already turned targets. From the barrier to Steffen. She wasn't sure what the witch was upset about. The death of that axe wielding man from earlier? She was already knocking an arrow, prepared to put her down the instant she loosed any sort of spell towards Steffen...but more unexpected events.

How tiring.

But the barrier shortly fell. Before even Fanilly had called her name, Cecil was already moving. She knocked the arrow, quickly pivoting on her feet towards the necromancer's direction. Thankfully a fellow knight was already making his way quietly over there.

"Vier! The hostage!" Verdant colored wind danced at the tips of her fingers as she'd draw the bowstring, the arrow wrapped in wind and fury. She could use a Burst arrow - it would certainly put the necromancer to rest...but a high chance of hurting the hostage too. So there was one solution here she could do if she wanted to ensure this was finished quickly and nicely.

"Divine spirit of wind," She exhaled, her pivoting motion finishing as the bowstring was pulled fully back. "hear my plea," Wind enveloped the entire arrow now, a solid form appearing on the arrow. "Peirce the heavens and clouds with divine fury! - Wind Piercer!"

The arrow was loosed, a blade of verdant wind hurtling towards the necromancer.

"Gahaha...I made...my decision." Alfrid responded to Flueri and Steffen with a strained breath. "Dying at the hands of the Roses...but if you'll hear me out, honorable friends." He held a hand to his quickly bleeding out wound. "There...is a witch. Uses lightning. Do not...drag her into this mess more than I have. She is here entirely...because of me." He sputtered, the strength in his body quickly leaving now as he'd rest against the stone wall. Before Flueri or Steffen could even affirm the request or not, the mans chest would slow in his breathing...until all that was left, was the sound of their own, and the echoes of combat and fighting from further in the tomb.

“As Luna says, Fio. The mountains central to Albion are the home of the giants. Luna’s family has ties to the giants, so her judgment should be sound when dealing with them.” Sorcha replied to her court mage.

“As for myself, Luna, Fio.” Elnith smiled. “This armor was forged by them. They’re quite the generous people, if reclusive.” Her gaze turned to Fio a little, before smirking and seeming to stifle a laugh before shaking her head. “I’m sure they’ll welcome us with open arms.”

“The heart?” Sorcha continued, addressing Reinhardt’s concern. “...Hm, I did not think it terribly important myself. Such a cursed thing can only bring more curses, but…” A moment of silence as she pondered her knights question. “...If its a request, I can speak with the Harzel knights upon meeting them. Otherwise, it would have been theirs as per the agreement. Now then, Fio, Luna, Elnith.” She turned to the three of them. “You are dismissed. Feel free to leave soon as you are prepared. Luana…if you truly do have a desire to serve me, then join me in the throne room. Ethelred, Reinhardt, you have sometime to prepare, or join me as well if you wish.”

“Lugh and I will remain here to oversee Airedale.” Vyrell smiled, turning his head towards Sorcha as she left the room. “Ah, and my Lady, when you return we can discuss certain events where an important person was absent without telling anyone.”

“...A-ahem, yes, very well Vyrell.” Sorcha responded, swiftly leaving the room and heading out into the throne room, expecting Luana to follow.

The older woman said nothing as Eliz made to retaliate. Blade drawn, she’d hold steady, not wavering as she would soon be in Eliz’s strike range. Myrilla simply smirked in response, her blade gleaming in the sunlight as she’d catch Eliz’s claws with it, a resounding sound of claw and scale raking against the metal of the sword.

“That’s a good attitude, demon,” She’d respond with a sharp coldness. “Lets see how arrogant you stay after I shatter your limbs like your fragile ego.” Eliz would hear it first. Gunfire as Myrilla’s other hand would draw the pistol at her side faster than the demon could register. The next thing she’d know, was pain. Right in her head, under her chin as a bullet plinked off her face. The blade was pulled from her claw, a swift motion followed as the blade went for Eliz’s neck.

Something told her it’d be dangerous if she let the blade connect

“Nyeheh, why am I cute? Cuz my mama made me~!” That was Lyssa’s response to katherine’s query of why she was the way that she was.The pink haired maid paid no heed to Katherine’s protesting, carrying her swiftly into the manor, making sure to have a firm grip on the Firbolg’s posterior as she’d run up the stairs towards the opposite wing. Past a few other maids, a very confused looking Rosanna before finally finding their way to the sitting room.

“We’re heeeeere!” Lyssa barreled into the room, cat still slung over her shoulder.

“...You could have chosen a more delicate way to enter.” Sitting on one of the luxurious looking couches was one Livia Fiore, teacup in hand, bringing it to her lips to sip from the beverage.

“Ahaha, pfft, that’d be boring though~” Lyssa walked over, and proceeded to grab Katherine by the waist, and sit her down on the opposite couch. “Well, my job’s done, ta-ta, i’m gonna go raid the kitchen for pancakes!”

“...lively, that one.” Livia curtly responded with a small smile. “Unlike you. Maid Katherine Lindall, was it?” Standing behind Lady Fiore was another maid. Long, violet colored hair, a small pin on her uniform of a nightshade flower. “Perhaps I should have Nynnette here personally correct your lack of manners on greeting your employer.” The maid, Nynette merely smiled demurely but said nothing.

Hmm~? A girl was kidnapped?~ I'm appalled you think I did it, ufufu~

• Name:
  Shimizu Kaori
• Age:
  Forever 18~
• Gender:
  Female
• Race:
  Jorogumo
• Appearance:
  A youthful, beautiful appearance that belies her true age. True to the myths, Kaori possesses a supernatural beauty befitting of her nature in order to seduce and charm. Often appearing no older than high school age, she typically dresses in elegant kimonos when not masquerading as a student or working. Shoulder length black hair tied at either side of her head, and her perhaps most striking feature is the obvious heterochromia, though she says she wasn't born with it. The matter of fact it is an old injury she got when she got a little too...rambunctious. As long as you ignore the fangs and pass off the occasional spider leg as your imagination, she's a totally normal and harmless human~
• Personality:
  As a Jorogumo, one knows what to sort of expect from Kaori. A man-eating seductress that seduces men with their charms in order to feast on them or slowly drain them of their vitality with a potent venom. Kaori is well, exactly this. Overly friendly, playful, a little teasing when she must, but polite, kind, affectionate. She knows how best to seduce someone using her charms. The only, perhaps, difference with the Myth is her choice of food...cute little girls instead of men. Make no mistake, she is a predator at heart. Playful, lascivious, and will always take an opportunity to make someone put their guard around her down so she can have a little afternoon snack. Thankfully, she mostly behaves as long as someone hold her proverbial leash, and shows her at least some manner of affection themselves.
  
  For the most part, though, generally, Kaori is a friendly little if somewhat troublesome and impish spider much preferring to be friends rather than enemies or rivals. However, while she is quick to show physical and intimate affection to the girls around her, she is quick to fall into a rather listless, broody, mental state and falling back into old habits if such affections aren't returned by those around her especially after repeated rejections or just going for so long without it...and this is her totally, definitely, valid reasoning for having her spider friends take stealthy panty shots or her propensity to grope and tease the women around her.
• Abilities:
  Her most obvious ability is her physical strength. While not quite as powerful as an Oni or perhaps a tengu, compared to a human or most other Youkai her strength could be said to be at least a low A tier, able to handle herself quite well against most threats physically. Coupled with her extra appendages, she's fairly adept in physical combat even if she primarily relies on ambush and hit and run tactics, emphasizing her agility.
  
  As expected as well, Jorogumo silk possesses supernatural strength, being equivalent to steel and yet remaining extremely flexible, breathable, and workable. Easy to bind, slow down, or overwhelm prey with it. Sharp and deadly, razor thread is one of the main things she uses to defend herself with, easily able to decapitate and sever limbs. Coupled with her ability to manipulate fire or her potent venom which can be used to physically weaken people in short term, the threads can be rather dangerous beyond their razor sharpness.
  
  Her fire magic and venom are a bit more niche in their uses, primarily for covering her tracks. In combat, fire is mostly used as simple fireballs, jets of flame and mixed with her agility and threads to envelop and burn foes to death. Venom, even more niche, she can coat her threads in it to deliver a potent venom even at a distance to weaken foes physically.
  
  A more understated ability is her ability to speak with and commune with most arachnids. While not directly useful, the ability to gain information from all spiders around her shouldn't be underestimated when dealing with oddities and curious happenings or events. Her shapeshifting ability as well - her natural form is more that of an Arachne, but appearing as a beautiful woman is an easy enough feat.
• Skills:
  Domestic abilities? Check! Cooking, cleaning, sewing, first aid, hugging, hand holding, massaging...as you can see, she's an extremely talented little spider. The last three are her most skilled subjects~
• Equipment:
  Her kimono and all her clothes are made out of her silk. Strong and durable, and the perfect defense against anyone touching her cute little friends. Flirt ask nicely and she might make you one. Unfortunately she says her talents only work for cute girls (lie). She'll also need to do a fitting. Be prepared for a lot of unneeded touching.
• Brief Backstory:

About seven years ago or so, a highschool girl went missing, snatched on her way home from school. No trace or leads to what happened. The only possible clue was a note book, badly burned and only a few pages legible. Days passed. Then a week. Then months. No leads, no clues about what happened. Rumors started about a urban legend that would snatch unsuspecting girls up on their way home. No one thought to suspect the odd new student at the school...after all, she technically wasn't even in the roster, but she was so polite and fit in so well no one questioned it. Forging documents were easy enough, too.

Then a year passed. The girl, showed up, dazed. Confused. Slightly drugged and a bit physically weak but otherwise completely fine. She however, could not recall anything that happened. Only something about a woman taking care of her through the entire year. With no leads, there was nothing else to be done. Three months passed. Everyone assumed there wouldn't be any breakthroughs...until another girl went missing, in an extremely similar fashion from the same school. Except, she was on her way to the park to 'meet a friend', the only source of this information being a badly burned notebook where a page managed to survive.

After another year, the girl was returned. This odd series of events continued to play out for about four years. A perplexing series of events where girls were kidnapped, and then returned after a year. Around three years ago, however, this pattern would slowly start breaking. Two girls kidnapped. Neither returned until a year and a half later. Then four. Five. Seven. Whoever was doing it, was getting more aggressive, but still no leads. The police were stumped. The only evidence was burned and discarded items, and on a few occasions a notably high presence of spiders in a persons home.

A year ago, is when this case was brought to Tomoko. It would not take the girl long to piece together what was roughly happening, even if it was a bit odd. A jorogumo, was kidnapping highschool girls instead of men...and not eating them. Perhaps, that's why Tomoko didn't deem it necessary to exorcise her. After a small confrontation where Kaori couldn't bring herself to harm a cute hair on Tomoko's head, she ended up willingly joining under the logic 'Someone has to protect this cute little girl, so I'll do it!'

No other intentions at all, definitely not.

The girls were all safely returned home.
