The Duality Wars: The Alien Wars 6
Session 47
<DeathStar> 6.18
<DeathStar> 5990 CE
<DeathStar> 6* Morning has come. The nymphs look depressed at them going, peering at them sadly. Sasha's pet nymph, Saria if I recall, staring at her all depressed. Qui hums, looking relaxed - if she did more with Vyvy after our last scene not known yet. Though Shade's chiding and punishment of Vyvy indicates maybe there was.
<DeathStar> 6* Vyvy and Shade come walking up from a meadow that was hidden from view until they appeared, holding hands, toward the gathered group, the morning fully in and the appointed time a minute passed
<DeathStar> 6* Kito and Neekito are packed, though Neekito looks thoughtful, peering at Shade, having sought her out the night before on a few things. Her pocket has an orb like object.
<DeathStar> <Shade> Is everyone ready to go? If any wish to stay, let me know now before I send you to the capital
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "We are ready."
<Sera> Alita> "I am ready."
<Sara> * Liana curtseys respectfully to Lady Shade, her stuff in hand. "Good to go..."
<DeathStar> 6* Vyvy is wearing nothing but vines, and has a vine clothing. She looks almost like a sex deviant
<DeathStar> 6* The vines are just barely covering her body
<DeathStar> <Shade> Vyvy, do you plan to stay here, or go with them?
<DeathStar> 6* The nymph hands Sasha a shell
<DeathStar> <Nymph> A going away present
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Oh, thank you."
<DeathStar> 6* Shade takes Vyvy's silence as consent, and holds out her hands to the group
<Stretch> 6Mykel stands next to Alita, holding a bag over his shoulder; waiting for the transport.
<DeathStar> <Shade> Farewell, Lady Sasha. May you find the capital welcoming
<Myaomi> <Vyvy> I'll stay a while longer, then I need to resume my pilgrimage
<Myaomi> * Vyvy leans in and kisses Qui's cheek. "Keep in touch, all of you."
<DeathStar> 6* Qui pouts, then kisses Vyvy back on the lips
<DeathStar> <Qui> You too!
<AquaKoala> *Commodus looks ready to go, hauling his pack up
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "I hope that I do too."
<Seraphna> Alita> "Shade, I have a gift for you."
<Myaomi> * Vyvy takes Liana's hand, tugging her to herself and leans in, whispering. "That fruit-- it's not just a mid-day snack."
<Sara> * Liana nod
<Myaomi> * She then lets her go and beams cheerfully. "I'll see you soon!"
<DeathStar> 6* Shade's magic washes over them and they quickly find themselves appearing in Eus, standing on catwalk
<DeathStar> The Daemon Capital, sometimes referred to as Eus, is a large network of structures. Black, with spidery-web like substances connecting them that is also black, but strong enough to walk upon - serving as catwalks, these buildings stand at various heights, anywhere from 1-2 floors all the way up to 15 stories. The buildings and floors are connected to each other with these substances, allowing Daemons to move to each structure easily in various neighbors, since the Capital is divided into such neighborhoods.
<DeathStar> The Neighborhoods, as they are called, allow the Daemon races to live amongst their own kind - if they wish. Despite there only being 3 playable Daemon races, there are in fact many. There are Oni, Inugami, Vampires, Adi, and more. Each neighborhood in the capital allows the Daemons to have their own tastes and stores, fancies and housing, so they can partake in what they desire. The werebeast live amongst them and escaped Fauna that have married into werebeast culture.
<DeathStar> Finally, the Main Block is an area where there are a mixture of Daemon, as well as stores and shops, such as harems, sex slaves, fighting arenas, and so on. While the Daemons do not usually take sex slaves, if they are attacked or if someone goes into debt with them, the Daemons will give the person the option of instead of dying, to become a sex slave or a servant, such as a maid, to work off their life debt that way. The Main Block is fancier, with the buildings here still being black designed, but looking more gothic in design, with statues and beautiful, creepy artichtect, like something out of Dracula. Taking up the main portion of the capital, it leads along the middle area of it, while the Neighbors spread out along the sides.
<DeathStar> The Main Block also has schools, libraries on Daemon culture, and more. Growing along all the buildings, including the Neighborhoods, are luminescent vines and mushrooms, providing lighting at night and during the twilight. And in the center of the Capital is The Tower, which is where the Daemon Empress and her family lives, as well as workers, and Advisors.
<DeathStar> Standing at 30 floors, the Tower overlooks the entire Capital, and Daemons can enter at certain days of the week to petition members of the Daemon Council, voted on by the Daemons - each race can have a member on it - and the Daemon Council reports to the Empress and her Advisors. If they still wish it, twice a month they can petition the Empress directly. The Capital also has a colliseum, directly at the base of the Tower so the Empress can watch from her balcony, where lethal and non lethal battles take place. The Lethal Battles only happening twice a year to keep Daemon deaths down.
<DeathStar> 6* The group is on the Main Block, one of the spidery-web structures
<Seraphna> Alita> "Now this feels more at home. Though I'm from the Coastal City."
<DeathStar> 6* Daemons walk past them, glancing at them oddly, as they move about. The sky here is a beautiful twilight
<AquaKoala> *Commodus looks about
<Myaomi> * In an aside, Vyvy makes a face. "In retrospect maybe I should have introduced them at least. Oh well, hopefully someone like Rosa or Rain will find them."
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Well then, here we are. Let's find lodgings and then we can see if we are able to make an appointment with the authorities."
<DeathStar> 6* There are shops on the level below and on their level, and Daemons of various races move about, male and female. There are even Amazons here, and other races, like werebeasts
<Seraphna> * Alita spreads her wings a little and stretches.
<Seraphna> Alita> "Sure."
<DeathStar> 6* A Hapian female is in a maid outfit, advertising a dress shop. Qui looks around in awe
<Sara> * Liana looks around, equally in awe, her eyes as full of adventure and wonderment as ever
<AquaKoala> Commodus> It's certainly busy
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "To be expected. This is one of the great cities of geyze."
<Seraphna> * Alita peers around for an inn.
<DeathStar> 6* Qui walks along the structure, peering at weapon shops, and armor shops, a Harem Building advertising the best girls of all races
<Sara> * Liana frowns at that last one
<Seraphna> * Alita walks about at ease, smiling.
<AquaKoala> *Commodus follows
<DeathStar> 6* After a bit of walking there is a large inn/diner complex, with music and dance. There are several daemon and surprisingly, fauna girls in skimpy outfits advertising it, trying to get travelers to come in
<Jackieness> <Sasha> *looks at Alita* "What of this place?"
<Seraphna> Alita> "It looks good to me."
<DeathStar> 6* A Lilin in the skimpy outfit moves to one traveler, carefully smiling at them without touching, shifting their wings and using their tail with a here come motion. "Won't you come and stay? Our entertainment and services are legendary."
<Seraphna> * Alita's own tail flicks about and she grins a bit.
<AquaKoala> *Commodus deadpans at Alita a little
<Jackieness> <Sasha> *raises a brow* "Alita... your tail is doing that thing again."
<Seraphna> Alita> "What thing?" *the tail looks innocent*
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Its flicking about like its owner is up to something."
<Sara> <Liana> Who is the owner, anyway? Could be anyone, I'm sure.
<Seraphna> Alita> "Nah, just excited to be among a lot of Daemons again. We maynot be home, but this is close enough."
<Sara> * Liana makes a face.
<DeathStar> 6* Qui peers around, then blinks at a child like vampire eyeing her - if it weren't for the breasts. she leans in closer. "You smell nice. Would you like to go somewhere with me and see the sights of our city?"
<DeathStar> 6* The vampire expends some charmisma points on Qui
<DeathStar> <Qui> I--um..sure?
<Sara> <Liana> She's not interested. *Liana takes an imposing stance*
<Seraphna> * Alita vlinks and moves over to Qui, putting an arm around her and smiling to the Vampire. "Sorry dear, she's with us."
<DeathStar> 6* The small vampire smiles, then blinks, backing off Liana like she's scared
<DeathStar> <Vampire> O-okay... 6* She slumps, and looks around weakly and scurries off
<Seraphna> Alita> "Whoop, overkill there. It's okay."
<DeathStar> <Qui> Oh. Are we not going with her?
<Seraphna> Alita> "She was hungry."
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Wr have business to deal with."
<Sara> <Liana> And business before pleasure.
<AquaKoala> Commodus> Precisely
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Alita, inquire with this establishment please."
<DeathStar> 6* A fauna hands Sasha a flier for the inn
<Seraphna> * Alita blinks and nods, moving inside to see about rooms.
<DeathStar> <Fauna> Please stay at the Dark Gort!
<Sara> <Liana> The wha.
<Jackieness> <Sasha> *looks at the flier*
<DeathStar> 6* As Alita enters, she would hear soothing dark music playing, and lots of tables are set up with human travelers, werebeasts, and other races, some even from Kumen. Daemons watch as the entertainment dances in skimpy outfits, much like the dark version of Asarar's. Moving to the music and stripping a little, but not too much
<DeathStar> 6* The flier promises a discount if turned in, with the fauna's name for credit
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Alright, we'll stay."
<DeathStar> 6* The barkeep, a Lilin that looks a little older than most, cleans a cup
<Seraphna> * Alita approaches her, smiling. "Hello."
<DeathStar> 6* The fauna beams, and the Lilin outside also trying to get customers scowls only a second before going back to enticing members, using her subtle approach to get people in, getting mroe than the fauna by far
<AquaKoala> *Commodus looks around the inn
<Jackieness> <Sasha> *moves inside and after Alita*
<DeathStar> <Barkeep> Hello, dear
<DeathStar> 6* She looks up, wings fluttering back as she looks at them all with her eyes
<Sara> * Liana stays by Qui, trying to make sure she doesn't get lured away
<Seraphna> Alita> "My friends and I are looking for rooms." *she flutters her own wings*
<Jackieness> <Sasha> *holds up the flier as she walks behind Alita*
<DeathStar> 6* Qui watches the dancers in awe, tilting her head
<DeathStar> 6* Kito and Neekito look around, looking a bit like they are recovering their sensibilities
<DeathStar> 6* The barkeep takes it, nodding and sets it down. "How many rooms you'd like?"
<Seraphna> * Alita looks and does a headcount. "Four rooms should do it."
<DeathStar> <Barkeep> Peasant size, normal, or luxurious?
<Seraphna> * Alita bites her lip a bit and considers that, looking at the noblewomen. Likely going to say Normal if they don't speak up.
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "What are the costs involved?"
<DeathStar> <Barkeep> The peasant size is pretty cramped - just for those who need a place desperately. 50 gold. The normal is nicer, bed, bath, 200 gold. Luxurious, we send private food, our girls see to your needs, and there's special baths and daemon commodities, like what you might find up in the rich quarters, so 1000
<DeathStar> <Barkeep> You won't regret it.
<DeathStar> 6* She smiles, laying the charm on
<Seraphna> * Alita goes pale at the mere mention of that much money.
<AquaKoala> Commodus> We'll take the normal.
<DeathStar> <Barkeep> If you are part of an organization, we can charge them
<DeathStar> 6* She notes helpfully
<AquaKoala> Commodus> Charged to the Academy.
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Yes, the Academy."
<DeathStar> 6* The barkeep nods, holding out a hand for an ID
<Seraphna> * Alita is about to check with Sasha if they should mention it but Commodus makes that easy.
<DeathStar> <Barkeep> Alright, 4 normal
<AquaKoala> *Commodus shows his badge on his armour
<DeathStar> 6* She sighs at losing 4 Luxurious, taking the badge and runs it through a Dark Spirit
<DeathStar> 6* Then hands it back, waiting and sees satisfied after a few minutes as the Dark Spirit glows
<DeathStar> 6* She hands them 4 keys
<DeathStar> <Barkeep> Room number on the ta
<DeathStar> *Tag
<Seraphna> Alita> "Thanks!"
<DeathStar> 6* Qui moves to go upstairs
<AquaKoala> *As does Commodus
<Jackieness> <Sasha> *starts upstairs
<Seraphna> * Alita follows, taking Mykel.
<Sara> * Liana follows after Qui
<DeathStar> 6* Qui passes a few daemons talking about their luxurious rooms' mudbaths and the massages they get whenever they want, all smug
<DeathStar> 6* Then Qui enters a room. Kito and Neekito take Sasha's room, setting her stuff down
<Seraphna> * Alita takes a room with Mykel.
<AquaKoala> *Commodus heads into a room alone, like always
<Sara> * Liana enters the room with Qui
<DeathStar> 6* Talia follows Commodus, to be his kitty today
<Seraphna> Alita> "Talia, come here."
<DeathStar> 6* Talia mews, peering at Commodus, then her, then follows, ears down
<AquaKoala> *Commodus blinks
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Alita, where did your sister go anyway?"
<DeathStar> <Qui> I saw nymphs floating off with her
<Seraphna> * Alita picks her up, she looks up. "I believe she stayed at Shade's for a bit."
<Seraphna> Alita> "Something about learning this trick they do with their fingers."
<DeathStar> <Qui> So what is that big tower in the middle of the city I wonder
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "I... see..."
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "I believe it is their own counterpart to the Hapian palace complex."
<Seraphna> Alita> "It was made out of the Dark Magics and Dark Lands itself."
<Seraphna> Alita> "So yes... it is in a way like the Hapian tower is to the Light."
<Seraphna> Alita> "Likely her Grace the Empress resides in there."
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "We will need to visit someone in authority, though an audience with the empress directly is unlikely."
<Seraphna> Alita> "She's a rather take charge Empress. It may be more likely than you think."
<Seraphna> Alita> "Though she doesn't come out to the public much... especially considering the attackers who killed her parents have never been discovered."
<DeathStar> 6* Qui moves her body like the dancers below as they talk
<DeathStar> 6* Kito and Neekito unpack a few things, peering around to see how defensible the room is
<DeathStar> <Kito> Should we find anything to change your eye color while you are here, mistress?
<Seraphna> * Alita pets Talia and nuzzles her ear.
<DeathStar> <Qui> It is still morning. Should we try to learn more about the city and tower?
<Seraphna> Alita> "It may be prudent, Sasha. And yes, some learning might do us well, I'm not a local here... having grown up in the northern Oceanic City."
<Sara> * Liana nods to Qui
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "If need be... yes, find me something for my eyes."
<Sara> * Liana blinks at that
<Seraphna> Alita> "My realm is perhaps next in line behind the Naturalists when it comes to being displeased about the Kumen presence... in that regard the Hapian line isn't precisely favored..."
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Liana, come here."
<Sara> * Liana nods and walks over to Sasha
<DeathStar> 6* Below, smells of good lift up, tempting the ones who like it
<DeathStar> 6* It seems the barkeep might have wisely put tiny tiny holes in the rooms' floors to let the smell of food come up
<Jackieness> <Sasha> *examines Liana's eyes* "Its more intense."
<Seraphna> Alita> "We may end up eating our value of the luxurious rooms away."
<Sara> <Liana> I've made my peace with it. *she notes*
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Hmmm... the crystal exposure. That may explain Eve.
<DeathStar> 6* Kito and Neekito move out on a grand adventure
<DeathStar> 6* Qui wanders downstairs to watch the dancers until the team is ready to leave. And maybe eat
<Seraphna> * Alita leave Mykel in the room and heads down to join Qui.
<Sara> * Liana stays with Sasha
<DeathStar> 6* Qui looks out at the people
<Seraphna> * Alita joins her. "Like it here?"
<DeathStar> <Qui> I do not know. It is energetic certainly
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "The implications are somewhat troubling."
<Seraphna> Alita> "We like to live life in the Dark Lands."
<DeathStar> 6* The dancer twirls naked on the stage. Qui watches a while, then steps outside to watch people move about
<Seraphna> * Alita sticks with her, perhaps to avoid any further princess kidnappings.
<DeathStar> 6* Guards move about, searching and asking questions, being discreet in what they are asking, moving past them
<Sara> <Liana> What will be will be. If I've been... "biologically transformed"... As long as I'm still me, I can accept that, somehow.
<DeathStar> 6* The guards seem to be made up of Oni and Vampires
<Seraphna> * Alita raises a brow curiously.
<Seraphna> * Alita whispers to Qui. "I have the oddest feeling... and I don't think it's us they're looking for at all."
<DeathStar> <Qui> Then who?
<Seraphna> Alita> "...That girl... how old did she look to you?"
<Seraphna> Alita> "The one that offered to show you some place."
<AquaKoala> Commodus> Too young
<DeathStar> <Qui> Hm, she had breasts, but young
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "I speak of Eve. HEr eyes were blue until the recent ball. Exposure to the crystal shifted your eyes to red. It could imply that another crystal is indeed in the Hapian palace."
<Seraphna> Alita> "Maybe around 14?"
<DeathStar> <Qui> Maybe. *she concedes, not good with ages*
<Seraphna> * Alita bites her lower lip again. "The Empress has a younger sister, a vampire around that age."
<DeathStar> <Qui> Vampires can age? *She asks curiously*
<Sara> <Liana> That's possible... I could also imagine it being related to Aska herself, though. Cel is with a girl... so they would want a different heir... *she looks a bit sad at that*
<Seraphna> Alita> "Not sure, but as far as I know her sister is in her younger teens and a vampire."
<Seraphna> Alita> "I wonder if we can find her again... I feel bad we scared her off regardless."
<DeathStar> <Qui> So I meant a young heir?
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Celes has gone to great lengths to be 'unsuitable' for empress."
<DeathStar> *met
<Seraphna> Alita> "With our luck I'm surprised you didn't bump into the Empress strolling about."
<DeathStar> 6* Qui moves about, heading in the direction the young vampire went
<Seraphna> * Alita moves with her.
<Sara> <Liana> I'm just saying that maybe, my engagement to Cel was a good excuse to find a way to connect Eve to Aska and make proper moves to make her heir apparent?
<DeathStar> 6* The walkways lead toward the Neighborhoods, the signs indicating which neighborhoods are in which direction. Werebeasts to the left, Oni straight head, Vampires to the right in this area. Up higher and back the way they came is, though, a harem area in the Main Block and a fighting block
<DeathStar> <Qui> Hm, do we go into the Neighborhoods or go to a higher level and go back?
<Seraphna> * Alita considers. "Well..."
<Seraphna> * Alita rubs the back of her head, messing with a horn. "I'm not entirely certain, but if she was looking fro a meal the higher levels might have more opportunities."
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Oh, no doubt. Eve was unsuitable before as her conneciton to Aska was tenuous... but she was significantly easier to control."
<Myaomi> <Vyvy> Ooooi, what're you guys doing here!?
<DeathStar> 6* Qui nods, turning away from the Vampire neighborhoods. She blinks, turning back toward the Vampire Neighborhoods
<Seraphna> Alita> "Wha...?"
<Seraphna> * Alita looks back too.
<DeathStar> <Qui> Vyvy? What are you doing here? I thought you were staying with Shade
<DeathStar> 6* A beautiful person stands behind Vyvy
<Myaomi> * Vyvy trots up, dressed formally with her blade.
<Seraphna> Alita> "Changed your mind?"
<Myaomi> <Vyvy> Well, I felt bad that I didn't introduce you to Lady Rain here, because she could probably get you the audience you wanted.
<Myaomi> <Vyvy> Seems there's an itty bitty neck-bitten problem first though...
<Seraphna> Alita> "Oh... we were tracking down a vampire girl, yes."
<Myaomi> * She emphasizes with her fingers a small distance apart and showing her 'fangs'
<Myaomi> <Vyvy> Hm, what kinda girl?
<Myaomi> <Vyvy> I mean there's a lot of urchins around, it's a big city and all and...--
<Seraphna> Alita> Young teens, seemed hungry. She charmed Qui for a meal but Liana scared her off. And there's soldiers about looking for someone."
<Myaomi> <Vyvy> ... What'd she look like?
<Seraphna> * Alita describes what she remembers of her.
<DeathStar> 6* The 15 year old white haired beauty peers at them with red eyes, though she seems to have an ancient presence as she listens
<DeathStar> <Qui> It was really fast
<Seraphna> Alita> "She seemed child like, if it wasn't for the breasts, so probably early teens."
<DeathStar> <Rain> She sounds very familiar, outside the fearfulness and hunger, and the unkempt look. I will look into it
<DeathStar> 6* Rain walks along. "True vampires age until a certain point they will it - assuming they are not turned, which is forbidden unless a person asks for it."
<Seraphna> Alita> "I had a funny feeling we'd run into the Empress' little sister out on a romp."
<Seraphna> Alita> "It's in keeping with our sort of luck these days."
<DeathStar> 6* Rain moves up to the top level that they were heading. "Maybe your luck will hold true then, child."
<DeathStar> 6* She chuckles mirthfully
<DeathStar> 6* Qui follows curiously
<Seraphna> * Alita follows.
<Seraphna> Alita> "Well considering I travel with heirs to at least three kingdoms at this point, I'm not too surprised at these things anymore."
<Sara> <Liana> So I guess we're just here alone at this point, huh?
<DeathStar> <Rain> Oh? Vyvy, dear, you didn't tell me you were so well connected
<DeathStar> 6* She strokes her cheek
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Until Kito and Neekito return with our disguises."
<DeathStar> 6* The two are still gone, oddly
<Myaomi> <Vyvy> Well, its been an interesting last few years.
<AquaKoala> Commodus> Hello
<Sara> <Liana> Yeah, just us.
<DeathStar> 6* Rain smiles at Commodus, extending a hand. "Hello, ser Knight."
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Though they are taking an unusual amount of time..."
<Sara> <Liana> I hope they're okay.
<AquaKoala> *Commodus kneels and takes her hand
<DeathStar> 6* Rain seems to have a nobility feel to her, even as she moves. She smiles to Commodus, her fangs showing, though she does not exude any of her vampric powers, too high class to shove her powers around
<DeathStar> <Rain> Let us find your little mystery, shall we? *she tells the group*
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "We may have little choice but to try to track them down if they do not return."
<Seraphna> * Alita nods.
<AquaKoala> *Commodus nods, rising
<Sara> <Liana> Yeah...
<DeathStar> 6* Rain moves around, talking to people charmingly, gesturing, moving about the harem district. They pass Kito and Neekito, who looked charmed by a Lilin who is walking along, talking to them without ever touching, promising them fabulous contracts and well pay
<DeathStar> 6* Her pheromones being used on the two as she leads them to a place of business
<AquaKoala> *Commodus eyes this and moves over quickly
<DeathStar> 6* The Lilin is clearly a Headhunter, paid by the girl - she is suppose to get willing volunteers but is being bad
<Seraphna> Alita> "Hey... Kitos!"
<DeathStar> 6* Rain tcks her tongue annoyedly at the Lilin
<AquaKoala> Commodus> Mam, you are stealing our companions.
<DeathStar> 6* The Lilin peers over, glancing at Commodus, preparing to lay the charm on him. She smiles, leaning forward to show some cleavage, but not too much. She subtlely smiles. "Am I? They look happy to me. Do you want to come with me too?" 6* She begins to use her pheromones when Rain cracks her with her vampric powers
<DeathStar> <Rain> Stop embarrassing yourself
<DeathStar> 6* The Lilin sighs, eyeing Rain, then jerks at seeing her and bows her head slightly, backing away
<AquaKoala> *Commodus narrows his eyes at the Lilin and shoos at her
<DeathStar> <Lilin> Yes, ma'am. My apologies
<DeathStar> 6* She backs off
<DeathStar> 6* Kito and Neekito shake their head, clearing it
<DeathStar> <Kito> We are off course... <Neekito> Horriblely
<DeathStar> 6* They look at the others
<Seraphna> Alita> "Yeesh, do I ever overuse my pheramones like that?"
<DeathStar> <Rain> Most Lilin are subtle and do not even have sex that often. But Headhunters are the worst
<DeathStar> <Rain> They get paid by the girl - they are suppose to find girls who wish to work, not twist minds
<Seraphna> Alita> "...I won't pretend I don't sex often, but yeah... that is quite an overuse."
<DeathStar> 6* Rain gives the two directions, then turns to move on
<DeathStar> 6* Rain looks at Alita. "Too much of a good thing, dear, can become a bad thing." 6* She smiles charmingly. "That is why many Lilins are seducers, not actually engagers. Look at what businesses they do. They run harems, or are massagers. They are playful, teasers, to get what they want. That is why when they do get a prize, it is more pleasureable. But we all should live our lives as we want." 6* She assures her
<DeathStar> 6* the two Kitos finally arrive at the inn and hand the two...glasses
<DeathStar> 6* Shaded glasses
<Jackieness> <Sasha> *eyes the glasses and then puts them on*
<DeathStar> <Neekito> Also, here is an eye drop that makes your eyes look demonic
<DeathStar> 6* She holds out a yellow eye
<DeathStar> 6* Rain points ahead, at the vampire girl. "Is that her?"
<Sara> * Liana raises an eyebrow but puts on the shades
<Seraphna> Alita> "I think so."
<DeathStar> 6* The young vampire girl, in her 14s, is trying to follow an Aurit who looks like she might be a push over
<DeathStar> <Rain> Curious. Very curious
<DeathStar> <Qui> That is her
<Seraphna> * Alita puts on her best air and moves over towards the girl, doing her best to be casual about it.
<DeathStar> 6* Rain hangs back, musing behind Vyvy
<DeathStar> 6* The vampire girl begins to entice the Aurit, gesturing toward a spot that is secluded
<Seraphna> * Alita moves over and gently taps her shoulder. "Excuse me, miss."
<Myaomi> <Vyvy> I can't really tell from here
<DeathStar> 6* The va,pire turns and the aurit hurries off. The vampire girl narrows her reddish eyes. "Are you people intent on making me starve?"
<Jackieness> <Sasha> *takes the eye drop* "Interesting."
<DeathStar> 6* Qui skips over, holding Commodus' hand
<Seraphna> Alita> "No, in fact I'm going to offer you a meal."
<Myaomi> <Vyvy> Grah! It IS you!
<Myaomi> * Vyvy points at the vampire, then starts to sprint at her.
<DeathStar> 6* The vampire girl slowly turns toward Vyvy, as if just taking her in
<DeathStar> <Qui> Vyvy...?
<Seraphna> Alita> *shifts a bit protectively of the vampire* "Whoa now..."
<AquaKoala> *Commodus raises an eyebrow
<DeathStar> <Vampire Girl> Whoa, hey, keep her away. 6* She hurries off quickly, her speed impressive. A crowd of daemons stare at the strange girl charging a vampire
<DeathStar> 6* Rain slowly rubs her face, not sure what to make of this. "I should call in Rosa I think."
<DeathStar> <Kito> We were almost sold to a harem. *she notes sadly*
<DeathStar> <Neekito> Also the others were with a beautiful vampire, searching for something on the harem street
<Sara> <Liana> Oh dear... I'm glad you two are okay.
<Seraphna> Alita> "...Damnit..." *she tries to head after the Vampire*
<Myaomi> <Vyvy> Hey! Get back here, runt!
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "What?! Who would do such a thing?!"
<Seraphna> Alita> "Vyvy, just stop!"
<Myaomi> <Vyvy> If we lose her now, who knows how long it'll take next time!
<Seraphna> Alita> "So don't scare her off."
<DeathStar> <Neekito> Some headhunter Lilin. This noble Vampire ran her off
<DeathStar> 6* The vampire girl runs along, and a few daemons advance on the group to grab them. The girl runs into an alley
<DeathStar> 6* Qui eeps and urns after. Rain moves to talk to the daemons
<Sara> <Liana> I'm not very fond of this town so far.
<Myaomi> * Vyvy slides to a stop to turn into the alley
<DeathStar> 6* Somewhere, Shade becomes depressed and the world suffers
<DeathStar> 6* No doubt Liana becomes even more light
<AquaKoala> Commodus> I'm rather confused.
<Seraphna> * Alita darts into the alley.
<DeathStar> 6* The vampire pauses as the cat walk like structure ends and she peers down at a lower level, having to jump far
<Seraphna> Alita> "Wait!"
<DeathStar> <Vampire Girl> Um, lets see...
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Well, it si still more civil than the Hapian propaganda makes out to be... but still not the welcoem I would have hoped for. Hopefully the others have stayed out of trouble."
<DeathStar> 6* She does the calculations, judging her strenth right now
<Seraphna> Alita> "Look I'll keep her off you, just... stop running."
<Seraphna> * Alita burns 2 charisma to try and assure her.
<DeathStar> <Neekito> I took it from the vampire noble the headhunters were not welcome
<DeathStar> 6* The vampire girl turns back
<AquaKoala> *Commodus pants as he catches up
<DeathStar> 6* The two move back to lay down
<Seraphna> * Alita moves over to her, panting. "Thank you..."
<DeathStar> 6* Qui runs and trips, almost going over the edge
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Ah, so the fringe of their society." *nods*
<Seraphna> * Alita grabs at her.
<Seraphna> * Qui that is
<DeathStar> <Kito> If you want us to lead you to the street let us know
<DeathStar> 6* Qui relaxes
<DeathStar> <Vampire Girl> Okay, so what do you want?
<Sara> * Liana bites her lip, antsy from missing all the adventure
<Seraphna> Alita> "Well first... I was going to apologize for us scaring you off... another was going to be to ask who you are."
<DeathStar> 6* Rosa arrives, whispering in Rain's ear
<Myaomi> <Vyvy> To see your sister, of course
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "If you are able then let us take in the city."
<Seraphna> Alita> "...So she is the princess."
<DeathStar> <Vampire Girl> Sister? Why does everyone assume that. Even the guards chasing me keeps calling me the princess
<Myaomi> * Vyvy peers at Alita, blinking
<Myaomi> <Vyvy> The what?
<Seraphna> Alita> "You carry a lot of resemblence to the Empress' little sister."
<Myaomi> <Vyvy> ... Whaaat!?
<DeathStar> 6* Neekito and Kito bring Sasha and Liana up to the top level, right above the inn ironically
<DeathStar> 6* Rain and Rosa step into the alley
<DeathStar> <Vampire Girl> No way. *She rubs her nose*
<Seraphna> Alita> "...So what's your name?"
<Jackieness> <Sasha> *looks around from their vantage point*
<DeathStar> <Rain> There has been talk that the Princess' middle sister might be missing, then you have been seen running around. Then again, she goes missing a lot
<DeathStar> 6* Sasha would see a lot of sex shops, entertainment in that department, harem type stuff - though the harem stuff is usually, like the description says, enemies that were defeated instead of killed, or women who want to go into that life for a lot of money. They are taught to be sex servants and whoever buys them cannot hurt them or they are fined, then jailed if offenses continued
<DeathStar> 6* Daemon harem sex servants are considered commodities and people who go down that road are treated with care and paid
<DeathStar> 6* There is also entertainment. This level seems to be the "Deviant" level.
<Sara> * Liana frowns at a lot of the surroundings
<Myaomi> <Vyvy> Lady Rain, is it really?
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Such a place."
<DeathStar> <Rain> I cannot tell. The appearance is like her, but the style and attitude is not
<Myaomi> <Vyvy> Look, vampires call their kin sisters, brothers as a familiarity, I didn't uh...
<DeathStar> <Vampire Girl> I'm called..
<DeathStar> <Vampire Girl> Sephri
<DeathStar> <Rain> I'll let the guard know and take her in. *she tells the others* And if she is the princess, I can clear it up quickly. *She notes, putting a hand on the girl, not knowing they want an in with the empress*
<DeathStar> 6* Rain steps out of the alley into Sasha's view
<Seraphna> * Alita eyes the girl, since pausing to think of a name is usually a strange sign. "Wait a moment, Ms. Rain."
<DeathStar> <Rain> Yes?
<Seraphna> Alita> "We're looking for a meeting with the Empress, if possible. As part of our mission."
<Jackieness> <Sasha> *glances over as the others show up*
<Sara> * Liana holds back her own dry comment of distaste toward the city as she notices the others
<Seraphna> * Alita wonders who the two strange women in glasses are.
<DeathStar> <Rain> Oh really? *She glances at Commodus*
<AquaKoala> *Commodus nods
<DeathStar> 6* Rosa stands to the side, a younger vampire in a maid outfit*
<AquaKoala> Commodus> Hello
<DeathStar> <Rain> Well, since you are Vyvy's friends I will arrange it
<DeathStar> <Rosa> Ah--h-hhello sir
<Seraphna> Alita> "Thank you."
<Jackieness> <Sasha> *turns and approaches them*
<Sara> * Liana follows Sasha
<DeathStar> <Rain> It may take a day or two. I would invite you into my mansion. *she peers at Liana as she approaches* But I am sure you will be happier here in the city inn
<DeathStar> 6* Despite the fact a vampire mansion is likely luxurious
<DeathStar> <Rain> I will let you know when I have arranged a meeting
<DeathStar> 6* Rain motions at Rosa to lead Sephri along. "Let us get the young vampire fed."
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Hello. I believe I have you to thank for the rescue of my handmaidens?"
<Sara> * Liana blinks when she's briefly peered at
<Seraphna> Alita> "Take care, Sephri!"
<DeathStar> 6* Rain nods to Sasha. "It was no problem. Such daemons give our city a bad name."
<Myaomi> <Vyvy> Hm, well it's a shame you're staying there. I'll probably stay with Lady Rain for now, we have some catching up to do.
<AquaKoala> *Commodus waves "Thank you for the help ladies"
<DeathStar> 6* Rain glances around the street, at the various races going into buildings and shopping. Right now an Aurit is buying a servant, a Lilin, signing the contract that the Lilin wishes to work - 5 years. At he end of the 5 years the Lilin will be free, since she no longer wishes to do the job after that, and the Aurit pays the Lilin and the business owner coin. The Aurit smiles, chatting with the Lilin as they walk along, both getting to know each other. The Aurit seeming to be shy and the Lilin working on getting them to be more open
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "And if you are indeed offering your hospitality, then we would be remiss to refuse."
<DeathStar> <Rain> Each culture has those who wish to break the rules and abuse it. I would have been wrong of me to let the Headhunter put two girls up to a service they had no interest in. The harem service is for those who want to learn the techniques it offers, to be with someone for a period of time they choose, and pick the person they want
<Myaomi> * Vyvy blinks, not expecting Sasha to take the offer.
<AquaKoala> Commodus> I appreciate it nonetheless
<DeathStar> <Rain> I am sure you would find my mansion less normal than your inn
<Seraphna> Alita> "We did already credit the rooms..."
<DeathStar> 6* Kito and Neekito peer at the harem service now quietly
<Myaomi> <Vyvy> Don't force yourselves... ha ha..
<Myaomi> * Vyvy puts an arm around Rosa, smiling.
<Myaomi> <Vyvy> She is a great host, though!
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Very well then, but I do thank you for the offer of hospitality. As Alita stated, we have already paid for the rooms here."
<Seraphna> Alita> "My Mother is a companion by trade, at least that's what she calls it." *she muses*
<DeathStar> 6* Rain smiles, despite her smile size. She doesn't seem like a true vampire at times, her frilly clothes up to her neck and being 15.
<DeathStar> <Rain> Good evening
<DeathStar> 6* Rain moves off
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "And to you as well."
<Myaomi> * Vyvy waves. "If you need anything, just send word. Any vampire, and likely many of the female daemon regardless, know of Lady Rain."
<DeathStar> 6* Qui watches them go, then turns back, musing
<DeathStar> <Qui> I am tempted to go with her now
<DeathStar> <Qui> I like luxury
<DeathStar> <Qui> But in any case, at least we have a way to the Empress now, yes?
<Seraphna> * Alita smiles and leans in playfully and ticles Qui's side. "Such a princess."
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Do we? You will have to catch me up then."
<Seraphna> Alita> "Yes, Rain is arranging it."
<Seraphna> Alita> "We may have also helped in the return of the princess."
<DeathStar> 6* Qui walks along with them back to the inn. The noisy inn with strip dancing and food that whifts up through the floor. No doubt by night she will be at the mansion
<DeathStar> -END-
<Jackieness> <Sasha> "Well, let's go back find dinner and you can tell me all about it..."
