"<strong>Whoa, whoa, whoa.</strong>" Oren begins, "<strong>Define <em>Humiliate</em>.</strong>"<br/><br/>Maybe he was being a bit paranoid, but when the bad guy referred to a sentient female being and ordered people to "humiliate her", the list of interpretations was pretty short, none of them pleasant. Heck, the whole reason he took a stand with the Phoenicians in the War of the Black Star was that the other guys had camps dedicated entirely to "humiliating" the women with the unfortunate luck to get in the way of the army.<br/><br/>"<strong>Look, buddy. I don't want that army in the mortal realms so I'll help bring her down and toe the line, but if you two mean what I have seen other people mean when they say 'humiliate' then there's not doing any 'humiliating' unless she literally asks for it.<br/><br/>And long term employment is not my thing, even with the good guys- and definitely not with devils. I'll kick her behind, make her cry home to daddy, and if she asks me too I consider sticking around- but my principles are not for sale. Ka-pesh?</strong>"<br/><br/>And a little stray thought enters his head that makes a small part of him giggle, though that part doesn't reach his face.<br/><br/>For years Oren was famous for two things, saving the day as a champion of freedom- and how many women he'd take to bed in the process. Being as his father was a satyr this really surprised nobody. But then, being a male crossbreed between satyr and elf, he had what had been called "The Malady of the Betwixt". Put simply "The Malady" was that crossbreeds had a strong tendency to be unable to conceive children unless assisted by even stronger magic. Oren had been taking advantage of this throughout his career as an adventurer, leaving behind a long string of bedroom playmates without even a single bastard as a consequence.<br/><br/>However, that had changed recently. Beliel's moral and philosophical opposite, the god of passion Aaluran, had blessed him- giving Oren gifts including curing him of the Malady and giving him the power to excite passion with but a glance. Separately, Oren was not a fan of either gift- but together. . .Was this why? To wreck havoc on the realm of devils by impregnating the daughter of one of it's most powerful tyrants with a child of passion and freedom?<br/><br/>An oddly enjoyable, if morally questionable, thought.
