[Kami Hunting]
Harnel's desire to beat this Kami is easily overcome by his desire to NOT be touched by it. Ewwwww.
He keeps his distance, which doesn't sound too hard with a speed of lumbering. Instead, h- WHOA, fireball. That was unexpected. But it's just fire. The heat's awfully nice really.
Anyways, he heads over to a nearby signpost. Most likely a stop sign, but he'll go for something else if it's available. And Harnel will be ripping that thing right out of the ground. Make himself an improvised hammer. Or at least a bat.

"Yeah, definitely." Nadia stretches. She's going to be so sore, though. "Let me get dressed." She pulls on some lacey underwear, giving Irena a wink as she does so and then her old overalls and a blue flannel shirt over that.

Valente nods. "Yeah. I'll take the job." He replies.

"Hum, hum, you aren't going to show more of that lacy wear are you?" The witch inquires as she happens to catch eye of the underwear, still remembering that promise Nadia made. The scrolls were still there but it wasn't like she was going to ask her to transform while pregnant that might cause the baby and (more importantly) her girlfriend damage.
She still missed the mistress title but the lampade never seemed to be able to remember it.

"Ah, excellent, it's nice to have you on board Valente. There is however some paperwork if you don't mind. Would you wish to use this circle to transport yourself up to the castle or do you wish us to send down an agent to you? Both work but you considering your tasks, you will need to visit Malechenar eventually so it might be good if you come up to introduce yourself to the others. You can take your friend with you as well." Sekai replies with a gesture at the tiefling who just give Valente a glance and a subtle shrug. She didn't seem to mind.

"Oh, you never know. I still have to do those pictures for you, don't I." Oh, that reminds her of the rest of their deal; She'd forgotten about it while she was so sick. Well, she won't be using the scrolls anymore, but she does add, "Mistress."
[Eastside]
"Right, let's go up to the castle then." Valente had been curious about it and hadn't had a chance to ask Astrana much about it. He never realized it was connected to the Forth Tower, though.

"Tenebras has never been opposed to working with the people. But you paint us as dictators as if we were. We don't ignore your needs and desires, despite what some may claim. Don't think we don't see this and recognize that there is discontent."
Maria casts her gaze over the people. "And don't forget we are citizens of this city too. Tenebras vampires you call us. It's easy to see us as separate from the other people when you think of us in that way." She gestures to the Enforcers standing along the fence. Each one removes their helmets, revealing the face underneath. Men and women of varying age make up the forces. Most importantly, however, is that the majority of them are unturned humans. "We are people of Riverside too. I hope you don't forget that." Maria looks at the crowd for another moment, then turns to leave them and enter the manor.

Re: [Nexus] Riverside X

Lenai looks on in approval as the centaur's hooves skitter on the roots a bit in his nervousness, but she holds out a hand before he bolts, steadying him.
"Cole, calm yourself and lay on the forest floor. Your shackles will be removed, and you will soon be free." She gestures to the drifts of hibiscus flowers that cover the roots, acting as a damp, fragrant mulch over many of the roots. This is the first time she's used his name, and it is in caution.
The centaur doesn't approach Cole yet, waiting to see if he responds to Lenai's advice, but he does reach over to his flank to remove a roll of chisels from his saddlebags, wrapped in canvas so that their well oiled blades do not dull on each other.Julie, everyone's nth favorite succubus, by Gulaghar.

"The roots will hold your legs still, so that you are not moving them in the way of the chisel. Now Mezochus, tend to your work." The thusly name Mezochus withdraws a large and heavy chisel, with a small metal tap hammer besides. His equine lower half lets itself sit next to Cole as he bends over at the waist to get a good look at the shackles.
The roots try to extend slowly up and over Cole legs as Lenai said they would, just to hold them steady for the duration of the chiseling.
Mezochus places the chisel to one side of the weld, and raises his hammer to begin his work.Julie, everyone's nth favorite succubus, by Gulaghar.

Cole breathes heavily as the roots hold him in place, his eyes wide with the fear of a trapped animal. Mezochus will probably need to clean the leaves and mud off, but the anklets should not be difficult to remove. They're made of yellow gold, but not pure, as that would be too soft for the purpose. They seem to have been designed to be loose enough to be comfortable, but snug enough not to come off.My avatar! Isn't it just utterly diabolical? Ashen Lilies made it!

Exbourne Manor- Outside
Several monkeys are sitting on the manor's roof, watching the crowd. There's more hiding in the trees along the manor's drive, and those closest to her are trying to get a good look at the speaker. The rest are analysing the crowd, trying to determine how organised it is and pick out any ringleaders.
Eastside Thugs- Day 8
A pair of tall thri-kreen, tall four-armed insectoid humanoids with thick chitinous exoskeletons are trying to join the crowd. One is wearing an ogre-sized yellow vest as a tunic; it's long, baggy, and best of all it has arm-holes large enough for two arms each. The other is wearing a pair of black trousers from a business suit and a pair of bandoleers across its torso. Both have a wooden amulet around their necks depicting a two-tailed scorpion, and neither have shoes. "What'z thiz group here for? We zee many zuch, and wonder." The trousered kreen is speaking, if necessary waving its arms to get attention.Last edited by Earl of Purple; 2012-08-30 at 06:50 PM.

It's quite possible that Mercutio might recognize the paintings by sight or by artist if they're from any better-known artists. Are they originals or prints? Can he even tell from this distance? If they're originals, Mercutio might be able to track them down.
The devil watches in clear fascination as the living liquid oozes out of the jar and takes on Enu's shape. Oh, the fun he could have with such a creature under his control.
"I'm intrigued," Mercutio says, turning his attention back to Enu. "Tell me, once it's copied a creature, does it gain that creature's abilities as well?""You tied your wings on tightly but they always come undone"

Re: [Nexus] Riverside X

He would actually prefer to leave the detritus in place, as it seems to be cushioning Cole's legs from the full force of his strikes, allowing him to hit harder. Once he has the first weld cut through, he'll bring out a set of spreaders from his bag and begin pulling the anklet apart until it will slide off Cole's leg without cutting his anklet open. The process will still probably leave a mild bruise, but considering his current state it's unlikely he'll notice.
Then Mezochus begins on the other, taking his time, but getting it done eventually assuming Cole cooperates. As soon as he's done, Lenai commands the roots to retract and let Cole free.Julie, everyone's nth favorite succubus, by Gulaghar.

Cole gets to his feet, and seems to come to himself a bit. He bows to the centaur. "I thank you, Sir." He bows to Lenai as well, but doesn't thank her yet.

Mezochus turns to Lenai with a single question in his eyes. Can he go now? Lenai nods in reply, and he packs his tools back carefully into their bags and stands.
The anklets are going to be surreptitiously removed from Cole's sight by the roots, unless he has anything to say about that. Once the centaur is fully packed he'll toss his bags back over his flank and hurry away, having never said a word.

It looks stunned for a moment, but quickly rights itself.

Cole did not look at the anklets at all after they were removed. He assumes the centaur took them, and is glad of it.
"I was to be married to a Duchess. Those were her betrothal gift to me." Cole says. He looks barely past the onset of puberty. Old enough to father a child, but only a society that thinks of men only as breeding partners could consider him as potential marriage material. "Thank you, Lenai."My avatar!

"Ha! You'll never remember that for more then ten minutes!" Irena exclaims joyfully while looking at Nadia through the bathroom mirror. "Besides, the way you're acting, you're my mistress right now. You've dragged me around the entire house." She says while starting to apply some eyeliner she actually have started to use.

If Valente decides to step inside the ring Astrana will follow him shortly afterwards. The two will then suddenly find themselves inside another circle in the center of a brightly lit room with a great deal of runes carved into the stone walls. Around them are a group of hooded figures with Sekai among them who bows slightly. "Welcome to Malechenar, I'd offer a tour but we're about to summon another being. We do have a stewardess who take care of these sort of things however so I Ruben here can guide you to her."

They are all originals actually if the devil even can tell that, they are all from a world separated from the nexus however called Elshar. There is a chance he still knows about them however due to all the planar madness in the nexus. Or perhaps he could just find them by description only? He's a smart fiend after all.
"Yes, that's what makes it so dangerous, as long it just copies us it shouldn't be too much of a problem however." He replies with another nervous glance back at the creature who now is looking around curiously, looking like it's getting used to it's new body.

The nymph brushes him off as if his honest gratitude meant nothing to her, but she's clearly unable to express what it properly means to her.

"I think we already knew that though, didn't we?" Nadia chuckles and slips her arms around Irena's waist from behind. The lampades kisses her neck a few times before resting her chin on the other woman's shoulder and looking at her through the mirror. "Face it, you're putty in my hands."
