Ameria: Is there any way I can help you guys?
Ameria: Is there any way I can help you guys?
(Hel began to chant slowly as she looked at the familiar on the young girl's shoulder.) Birdie. Lizard. Birdie, Lizard. Birdie! Lizard! (She was pumping her fists in unison to her beat like a cheering fan at a game. She stopped chanting to comment.) Gosh! You guys have such awesome familiars! Where can I get something like this? (Hel stopped as she made a revelation in her mind.) Can I get a bear shark!? Or a tiger dragon!? Or- NO… CAN I GET A BLOBFISH CROSSED WITH A FROG!?
Chesh slapped her forehead. "Hel. You are impossible." She said, laughing. "What even is a blobfish?"
Eshirreia: Looks over to the one who spoke. Still remaining expressionless as well as her voice
Familiar?
Ragnor: Does an audible facepalm with his good hand, leaving it in place for several moments, then slowly sliding it downwards. Though through it, there is still a soft smile on his face
In a way, though that is no familiar
Eshirreia: This is a hellbeast. This is only it's smaller form, easier fit in small spaces…my other 2 sisters have their own hellbeasts
Turns her violet eyes back to Ragnor
Your tonic Ragnor
Reaches into a satchel made of some unknown hide, pulling out a large vial
Ragnor: Thanks
(Hel let her hands fall to her side as a sign of dismay. What, so no blobfrog? Lame.) A blobfish is a weird… fish…thing in the human world. I kinda have no idea what it is either, I just heard they're ugly, so I want one. (She looks at this "hellbeast" with interest.) Did you give him a name? (She looks at Eshirreia, intrigued by the creature.)
Eshirreia: Once she hands the vial to Ragnor, looks back to Hel
It has been called Veilios
Ragnor: Glances between Eshirreia and the others. Rubs the back of his head, putting the vial away
Um…yea…Eshirreia here isn't great with…'social interaction'
Eshirreia: Seemingly tilts her head, but still remains expressionless. It was as if she had no emotions
I don't know what you mean.
Ragnor: Facepalms again, mumbling through his hand
(Hel snorts at Ragnor's comment.) It's fine, this ain't my first time at this rodeo, bro. Both my boyfriends can't talk to people to save their lives, you should be at least partially aware of that. (She bends down a little near Eshirreia's shoulder to get in eye level with the hellbeast. She starts wiggling her fingers in front of its face and starts making cooing noises like she's talking to a baby.) Haaaaaiii! Widdoo buydie bappy! Heyiooo! Hai!
Chesh shook her head. Hel was going to get her hand bitten off. She looked at Eshirreia. She chuckled at Ragnor's comment.
(Hel continues cooing at the strange creature, then pauses to ask a question.) What’s this little guy eat? Please don’t tell me it’s fingers. (She hovers her hand over it’s head as a sign that she wants to pet it, but doesn’t want to risk never scratching her back ever again.)
Ragnor: Well…um…fair enough I suppose
Eshirreia: Still remains standing still. Her eyes shift towards Hel as the she approaches
The creature, Veilios, shifts its red eyes, having a set of 3 on either side of its head. Watches Hel intently, sizing her up, form alert. Opens jaws, showing fangs. Seems about ready to strike, but is stopped by a word from Eshirreia
Eshirreia: Veilios is quite protective, as is with all our hellbeasts.
As for diet, as far as I know, carnivore. I let it go out and hunt while I work with my sisters
Ragnor: She lives out in a swampy region with her sisters…think I mentioned that…
Eshirreia: Yes, we all have our own hellbeasts, each unique and different
Ameria: I'm confused now…
(Hel calls over her shoulder to Ameria.) Ah, don’t be kid! Ragnor’s physician or something came to give him his special No Monster Grape Juice and she brought a cute little bird dragon lizard baby! (She wiggles her finger in front of the creature once more.) So… carnivorous… which means he eats meat… my finger is meat… so he would eat my finger, but… (She appears very deep in thought.) You know what, I literally have nothing to lose. (She starts rubbing the tip of her claw along the hellbeasts head.)
The creature doesn't seem thrilled at all. As Hel starts to touch it, the beast suddenly hops off of Eshirreia's shoulder. It starts to grow to nearly 12ft in height now, towering over Eshirreia. Black feathery wings fold downwards, creating a shield on either side of the small female
Eshirreia: Veilios does not take kindly to being randomly touched by strangers
Ragnor: Least he isn't like your sister's, Arianna, hellbeasts. Jeez, those things will tear anything or anyone apart if you just look at her
Eshirreia: Brushes a pale hand along one of the curtains of feathers, speaking softly in the unknown tongue of before
Veilios reluctantly lowers its black wings that seem to shimmer, as if looking like blades ready for slicing. Tail lashes behind it, all 6 eyes glowing
(Hel fell backwards as the hellbeast rapidly grew to twice her height. She gazes at the creature in awe from the floor with her stars twinkling subtly. She acknowledges that this creature is not a pet and is to be respected and feared as such. He earns her respect, but not her fear. She stands up and puts her hands on her hips.) Okay, then, I get it, big guy. Sorry about touching ya and for talking to you like a baby. Even though I still see you as one! (She gives a cheeky grin until she realizes something.) Wait a sec, he probably doesn't understand me, right? (She looks at Eshirreia and Ragnor for answers.)
Ragnor: Points towards Eshirreia
She's got an answer
Eshirreia: That is many of people's assumptions…but Veilios understand every word and more. It, along with my sisters hellbeasts, have been around just as long as us. Though they may not be like the very rare few hellbeasts that gain the ability to take a human form and form complete sentences
Veilios lowered itself to the ground at the feet of Eshirreia. The multiple eyes continued to glow, then suddenly giving a grunt-like noise, as if confirming everything said
Ragnor: Yea, don't get many of those
Have had to only ever deal with primal hellbeasts
(Hel gasped at the explanation and looks at Veilios.) So you can understand me! That's awesome!! (She wants to talk more to the creature but catches herself as she realized something.) Oh. Oh my gosh. I'm so sorry. I got caught up with your birdie I forgot to say hi to you. (She extends her hand to Eshirreia.) Hi! I'm Hel. I'm a witch. Also a Necrotzen, which sounds lame but I didn't make it up. You must be Eshhhhh… Eeeshear- wait- Ash- wait- Eeeee- hold on- Eshherreauh- I can do this- (She can't do this. Introduce yourself before she starts pronouncing more words wrong.)
Veilios doesn't seem the least bit interested. Simply remains hovering behind its master, tail curling around its side as its wings fold back
Eshirreia: Voice remains monotone as ever. Allows the other to take her pale, delicate fingers
Pleasure Hel
Seems to make a sigh, which still doesn't sound like there is any emotion
I will allow you to call me Esh, if it will help you
I live in the swamplands with my sisters…we are called many things; witches, sorceresses, and enchantresses are what we are mainly called
Ameria: Your acting like Mizu.
Eshirreia: Glances over
Hm?
Ragnor: Mumbles something under his breath
Mizu: Shows no emotion Hi.
Eshirreia: Greetings
Veilios' wings unfold again slightly, the feathers seeming more like sharpened blades again. Opens its jaw like beaks slightly, rows of fangs lining inside. Though closes its jaws again as it feels the woman's hand running along one of the bladed feathers
Eshirreia: That is enough Veilios, none are showing ill feelings towards me
(Hel scratched the back of her head and laughed awkwardly.) Yeah, sorry for giving your lil' buddy here a rough time. I won't go picking on you again, Veilios. (She nods at the hellbeast politely.) So, a witch, eh? is there something special to that title or do you just a turn people to frogs and stir a cauldron all day or whatever? (She crosses her arms and leans her weight on one leg with interest.)
Eshirreia: Tis a bit of a business…people from villages and other places seek us out. We do create different spells as well as potions. We have our prices, and each sister has a different job…
I mainly gather things we need, or deliver potions or scrolls if need be. I do not dabble much with the creating of spells, leaving that to my oldest sister, and potion-making to my middle sister.
(Hel cocks her eyebrow up in interest and smiles wide.) That's really neat, Esh! I might start interviewing you about, like, everything so if you got somewhere to be, you should hustle fast, but if you doooooon't… (Hel takes out a small notebook and a pencil from her robe and produces small, unnecessary spectacles on her eyes and looks intrigued at the girl.) Do you and your sisters get paid for what you do or is it all a free service? And hearing how you talk about them, I assume you're the baby sister?
Amanda: …are… are you guys human? I… I can’t s-seem to get a grasp on what’s going on. I’ve n-never b-been here before, so you might have to… fill me in. N-not to bother you or anything.
