“Alu~uring” The wooded man said standing at the edge of his cage, face pressed to the steel feeling the cold metal on his hard wood like skin and savoring the feeling. “Metal, strange substance, steel, iron, bronze. From nature yet nothing grows in it. How sad it must be” Speaking his thoughts quickly and pronouncing each word perfectly while speaking five or six words a second. Pulling back from the bars he saw the world go faster than everyone else did. Trees lived longer after all, days felt like seconds and he didn't need to sleep however the dull ache in his head left a bitter taste in his mouth. No plants and only foul stone and metal. He'd surly die on this diet alone.<br/><br/>His face was more brown than tanned skin his green leaf like hair looked wilted and streaks of red lined the tips of some leaves. “Water is very important, It's been a day or two, three? Five? No not that long, four? Never mind. It's been a while since I last drank anything.” Scratching a place on his chin were his skin has started to rust over in a bark like beard, rough and brittle like some sort of spiny plant. “bush? No more like a porcupine, they aren't plants...” He went back into thought for a long time. Moving to walk around the cage and while he did so it was slowly enough that anyone looking at him would work how he could move so slowly and still in perfect motion. Someone at normal walking speed could have maybe walked around cage eight times in the time it took him to do it once.<br/><br/>“Sex, cum. Male? Female? Who's is it that I smell?” Locking eyes with one of the prisoners for longer than seems necessary before loving back to walking around the cage.“Three, four. Times in one person moving on to the next.” stopping where he started and going back to picking at his chin.<br/><br/>Shutting his eyes and not moving, not even breathing for thirty seconds before opening his eyes and taking in a large gasping breath.<br/><br/>Ehko was back to normal speed seeing the world in the speed normal humans did he sighed looking at the person by his feet. “Who is that anyway?” Thinking out loud still. Leaning his back against the bars and his eyes locking onto the oddity in his view, a cat. “Cat? Lion? No too small, human smile, demon? Green eyes? Blue. No teal.... odd.” The cat looked in his direction and jumped down from its perch walking through the bars. Eyes widening  and stepping back. His thoughts were not spoken allowed this time the human parts of his mind, reactions picking up and feeling vulnerable. Trying to craft some sort of weapon from his skin but the lack of water was really starting to take a toll on what he could do. No pants around didn't help either. Seeing the cat pass through the bars like they weren't even there, Ehko frowned and knelt down to look at the thing. “Not a demon” this wasn't a thought but more a question, this was new to him, something he hadn't seen ever.<br/><br/>Surprisingly the thing spoke.  The first lines were unimportant, he thought so at first. Poetry? None he had heard before.<br/><br/>"Carpenter, where's walrus;<br/>Your friends most closest?<br/>It's rare to see you two apart;<br/>Is this your newest con or<br/>did you have a fight?<br/><br/>Cherished a clam that<br/>Walrus thought his?<br/>Perhaps the sources ran dry,<br/>and things went wry.<br/>Well that happens<br/>when you eat clams that speak."<br/><br/>This is where it got interesting for him, time slowed again and as she slowly turned human his mind raced.<br/><br/>“Carpenter is myself, walrus was some sort of friend, someone close to me. Did this girl know something about me? No this was poetry, the walrus was for something else, clams, yes, the clams. The sea. A fight, a con, the sea, rare to see us apart. She knew he needed water. A con, being captured? Hmm. No leaving my home? Yes that must be it.-” He stopped speaking when the beautiful girl stood before him. Time returned and he stood up. Everything he had just said went by at nearly fifteen words in a split second.<br/><br/>The dryad smiled and moved up towards the girls naked form Still sitting down she was was spreading himself for him. He knelt down for her, hands moving to her thighs fingers going over thumbs running under. Knee between her legs “I feel like I should know your name first.” He spoke normally now, not sped up or slowed down.<br/><br/>From the tender touch of his rough tree skinned hands across his soft tender, pale skin  the heat in his nethers grew, a warm present need deep within her, an itch formed, something she needed to be scratched.  Ehko made sure his grip was strong, pushing her flesh in making wonderfully sexy curves from her thighs. His own naked form starting to grow. The meat between his legs starting to grow, half mast and still above average for a human. At full height it would be threatening to even the half bull men around them. “I have a few questions but they can wait until after I'm curled your toes” He winked at her leaning in closer to her now, his rough skin mere inches from hers, face very close to her own.<div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
