<div class="floatright">(http://i.imgur.com/j8TvwkH.jpg)<br/><br/><div style="text-align: right;">(http://i.imgur.com/dDULapj.jpg)</div></div><br/>The fey royalty's face goes deep purple with rage as Lydia's verbal assault begins, but then towards the end, when Lydia suggests the fey tongue her asshole, she can't help but begin laughing.  A light tinkling sound that underlines her inhuman ancestry.  She waits until the human has finished her verbal assault before looking at the judge, then back to the contestant.  She closes her eyes and draws her magical powers into her and with a word roots burst from the ground and with lightning speed wrap about Lydia's ankles.  They slither with inhuman speed up her body, pulling her body tight and wrapping her arms to her side as one root like tentacle enters her mouth, slithering into the very back of her throat and gagging her.<br/><br/>Lydia's struggles show how completely bound she is, but the marchioness is looking at the judge,<strong>"I won't kill her, I will follow the rules.  But she is an aggressive beast who has entered my realm and I have every right to defend myself and punish her for her insult.  This is a right that transcends your rules and the rules of this place, so speak not to me of leniency.  She is lucky I do not take her back to the fey realm and grant her immortality before throwing her in the dung pits for all of time, to tend the feces of the beasts of my realm, where a filth mouthed commoner like her belongs.  But instead I will simply let her go free... but if she has so little respect for the fey, then I shall make sure that all know it."</strong><br/><br/>With a wicked gleam in her eyes, one holding nothing but contempt for Lydia she stalked forwards.  Try as Lydia might she could not move more than an inch in any direction before the roots held her still.<strong> "You think so little of my power, so little of the fey, show so little respect for the allies that beat back pandora from your pathetic mortal realm?  Then I shall make it known that from hence forth all fey you meet will know how you really feel about them."</strong><br/><br/>The Marchioness held out one fingertip, glowing with blue light and slowly stalked towards Lydia,<strong>"Bear now the mark of contempt, the mark of the enemy.  Lydia whose anger shines bright to make up for how dim her mind is, let all who see you know the results of your rage, and let all fey henceforth know you as the vile creature you are."</strong><br/><br/>With that the marchioness pressed her finger to Lydia's forehead.  There was a searing burning pain, worse pain than any Lydia had ever experienced and she was certain that her very flesh was burning off her head.  She was sure that she could feel the heat pressing through her skull, literally burning her brain.  The pain was too intense and she couldn't even scream around the root gag in her mouth.  All she could do was eventually after what felt like an eternity of torture, pass into blissful oblivion.<br/><br/><hr/><br/>She woke some time later, free and unbound on a soft bed.  Her hand went to her forehead but she felt no mark, no scar, no sign that she had been injured.  She sat up and looked around, and realized she had left the marchioness's chambers.  She was in the resting room between levels, alone, with no counselor.  She groaned and as she sat up realized something was different about her.  Stumbling to the nearby dressing table / desk, she looked in the large mirror that sat behind it.  Her hair... her hair was different, falling to mid back and a fiery red no human would likely ever have, a red the shade of roses in bloom, a red the shade of  filaberry, a red that one would see only on the deadly moss fungus when it was full of spores and ready to burst.  It was a red that anyone who knew nature would recognize, dangerous.<br/><br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">ooc</div><div class="spoiler_body">Lydia has received one point of permanent corruption and you need to use this picture for her now.  You can direct link from the imgur location:<br/>http://i.imgur.com/dDULapj.jpg<br/><br/>As to the resting room, she has a few hours to do whatever she would like.  There are eyebots that are 'stationary' as opposed to buzzing around, as well an adjoining room with bathing facilities.  There is also a large cloth 'pull cord' in both rooms, which she can use to summon a judge for food or assistance such as they can give.  which really is totally up to you.  Anything else you can think of that's appropriate go for.</div></div>
