					<div class="bbWrapper">“Let us begin again, Sibling. What is the purpose of Earth to the humanoids?”<br>
<br>
“Earth …” The addressed individual narrowed their eyes, pausing mid conversation.<br>
<br>
“Yes, Earth. Our next target of visit within the Third Dimension.” The first peered over a set of notes, as though a teacher to the other. Between the silence and the blank stares, the ‘teacher’ realized there wouldn’t be so much as a mumble in attempt to hide the unpreparedness. <br>
<br>
The initial speaker shut the small book of preparations with a sigh. “The purpose of Earth to humanoids is that the planet provides life to them. The species, homosapiens as they are formally known as, seek to progress their inhabitation to other planets. There have been credible evidence that their planet is overheating and their people are looking for means to escape-”<br>
<br>
“-While continuously racing against themselves.” Information was now jogging back to the ‘student’, nodding twice. “It is up to the two of us to save the species from themselves by offering our ways. Isn’t that right, Sibling Kai?”<br>
<br>
“Precisely, Sibling Keanu.” Kai nodded. Sandled feet came to a pause as they adjusted the kimono that drapped their bodies. Something so simple, yet refined, they’d debate on their choice of clothing. Had it been upto themselves, they’d be walking bare and proud. Unfortunately, it went against one of the many customs established within the void world- one to assist in avoiding lustful temptation.<br>
<br>
Keanu paused right along their sibling, strands of their ponytail falling flat against the dry wind. “Are we ready, then? To go?” They knew very well of the response. There had to be an opening from the other side to even remotely considering summoning any portal. Still, hearing themself ask brought a sort of comfort.<br>
<br>
Kai peered at Keanu for a moment, lips parting to respond. This is the 6th time in two weeks they’ve asked. And each time, they’ve been disappointed by the same response. Even when the ‘elder’ sibling (themself) promised of an update, the understanding wouldn’t last long. <br>
<br>
They curled their fingers into itself, as though taking a tangible observation of the air. It was heavy. Heavy with flints of grain much akin to what they’ve studied to be ‘sand’ on Earth. <br>
<br>
That couldn’t be the case. After all, magic was banned within the realms of the Neverworld with the exception of the creators. Assigned rulers were given the privilege as well but were heavily scrutinized for its purposes such as during a time of war or rebuilding. As far as either of them were concerned, neither was happening. So why was there magic?<br>
<br>
“Sibling Kai,” Keanu was already near a wooden door encased with runic symbols that served as their teleporter. The engravings glowing ever so slightly, marking the usage of magic. “The door, it’s--”<br>
<br>
“Keanu, get yourself away from there..!” Kai reached out, pulling them backwards and to themselves. The ‘elder’ was now in front. This was impossible. No way in the 7 hells could there be magic being conducted outside of the Neverworld’s anti-magic barrier walls without their permission.<br>
<br>
And yet. Here they were.<br>
<br>
The ‘elder’ reached out to the door, the runes shining evermore whilst emitting heat. There was enough magic interaction to step through, the engravings reading ‘Earth’. “Sibling,” They turned back to their equally confused counterpart, “Keep hold of my hand and stay close. Our trip to Earth begins now.” Before Keanu could respond, Kai opened the door, the otherside revealing a dark forestry of sorts to which they stepped through, their Sibling loyaly following behind.<br>
<br>
“This is rather new, Sibling,” Keanu observed. “Greenery, far from the Neverworld’s typical black, greys and purples. There seems to be….life.”<br>
<br>
Kai remained silent. As interesting as the scenery was, there was something that pressed their attention far more: The use of magic. Advanced magic for that matter. What type of caster was it? And where have they learned to use such explicit spells? Their footsteps were careful to not disrupt any twig or leaf, slowly approaching the source of magic.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Kayos smiled down at his badly burned hand as he watched his latest experiment crumple to the ground. "what..." She coughed up black blood that only brought panic to eyes while the elf gave a look of disgust. "that's not very attractive love." he said all the while black spider veins swam across the woman's body. "Fascinating what void magic can do." he said with a smile. <br>
<br>
"I'll kill you for this!" The female yelled as bright orange eyes began to dull and look muddy. <br>
<br>
"You put up a good fight phoenix, but in the end the curse will take over." Kayos said his voice calm and matter of fact sounding. "Goodbye, Lakan." <br>
<br>
Those were the last words the phoenix heard as darkness clouded her eyes and she fell limp releasing the last of her breath before her body erupted into bright orange flames. The flames began to intensify and turn black. The elf held up his hands to shield his face and stepped back away from the flames lest he become engulfed in them. He watched eagerly as the flames began to die down and laying before him was a black hawk sized phoenix. <br>
<br>
"could it be?" he whispered <br>
<br>
"You did sir, You created a void phoenix." a soft spoken chirp of a voice spoke in his ear that came from the small figure sitting on his shoulder with long purple hair and transparent wings. her face decorated with a beautiful ornate mask much like the one the elf used. <br>
<br>
He stepped closer to the phoenix and gently picked up its unconscious bird form. "Is she linked to me?" He asked <br>
<br>
"Yes." <br>
<br>
"We have much to discover about this creature." he said with a wicked grin while walking away from the clearing surrounded by forest. His home was made part of a giant ancient oak tree that lined with archaic elven runes. Inside he placed the bird back in its now oversized cage. <br>
<br>
"Phoenixes are so easily manipulated... much like fairies..." Kayos said with a laugh and laughed even harder when he heard the tut from his fairy friend who flew up into a hanging bird cage that was made into a cozy nook for her. "It's true..." he whispered with a wicked smirk.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Magic accompanied by voices? Whoever the culprit capable of conducting such magic clearly wasn’t adept in covering their tracks. Kai stepped forward, a hand raised behind themself, signaling Keanu to remain on the down low with questions or comments for the time being.<br>
<br>
They stepped forward, taking coverage behind a tree just in time to see a spell being casted by an… elf? No, elves weren’t capable of void magic, were they? They were typically known for white magic, shooting arrows and maybe twilight casting if there was going to be any speculation of dark magic; but not THIS level of corrupted magic. Their eyes narrow, wincing at the female’s victimized state before being carried off at the caster’s mercy.<br>
<br>
“Sibling, he’s taking her away..! We have to find stop him--!” Keanu was quickly interrupted with a hand placed over their mouth, muffled protests continuing to fuss at the witnessed events. Their nauseating empathy was going to be the literal death of them had their elder sibling not been around.<br>
<br>
Kai nods twice, understandingly. They were going to help, but not whilst in the middle of a forest where an elf had full reign. And was that..? What was that companion resting beside him? “Wait here, Sibling. Wait for my command.” They slowly but silently begin to pursuit the two just spotted when they were pulled back by the other.<br>
<br>
“What do you think you’re doing, ‘eldest’?” Keanu scanned their identical being.<br>
<br>
“What does it look like? I’m going to see if I can get the girl out.” Were they serious? Had they that little going on in that brilliant space of theirs?<br>
<br>
“Yes, well. How do I propose this lightly..” Keanu began. “...You stink at stealth. You’ll make yourself known out of sheer nothing. Please allow me.” Kai remained silent, prompting them to continue as though convincing a set of parents of their idea. “It’ll be like practice rounds..! And if I’m in trouble, I’ll flash the signal, okay?” They beam a smile, the final bout of silence confirming they had won them over. With a peck to their jaw, the ‘younger’ of the two turned, silent steps approaching elven household.<br>
<br>
Upon arriving, Keanu peered into oaken, minding the elven rune that engraved in them. They hold their gaze over at the small hanging cage, then where the owner of the home was situated.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">The mask that was once over his face was now pushed up in use as a headband while it sat on top of his head. By now he was sitting at a desk writing fervently on a sheet of paper. The small roses on the side of his mask began to open up and in the middle were a pair of purple eyes looking towards where the intruder was as if they could see right through him. <br>
<br>
The fairy stepped on the edge of her birdcage nook and faced where the small eyes were looking. "K..." she began to say before falling silent as her head bent down towards him. She waited to see if he had heard her, but when he didn't stir or respond she quietly fluttered to the fairy size hole with it's own door. She opened the door and looked down towards the intruder, her eyes on the mask staring right at him. <br>
<br>
Kayos didn't pay any mind to the fairy since he knew she wasn't going to go very far. They were in binding contract and he had her eyes spellbound which she didn't want to so easily give them up. That didn't mean she didn't look for an opportunity to get out of it. It seemed opportunity came knocking. Carefully fluttering down and just barely high enough out what she thought would be his reach. Her depth perception was often off and extremely inaccurate. <br>
<br>
"Who are you?" Her voice chirped quietly not wanting to disturb or draw the attention of her master. <br>
<br>
Kayos was rather distracted seeing his fresh excitement begin to stir and awaken. The cage was lined with pillows and a thick heavy blanket. He grinned seeing the dark phoenix shift into its new human form. Heavy panting dark eyes looked at him before looking around the room. The creature now in human facade wrapped the blanket around herself. <br>
<br>
"What do you call yourself?" <br>
<br>
"Senka. For I am of the shadows." She said looking down at the top of her hand and showed him the dark rune he had burned into her hand a week prior. <br>
<br>
"Hello Senka, it's a pleasure to meet you." He grinned looking over her fascinated at how different she looked from her once fiery red hair and orange and gold eyes. Now she was far more plain, but still held an elefent beauty. She didn't stand out drastically in this human form which gave him an even better advantage when he would decide to use her.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Keanu stumbled backward at the small being fluttering down, a hand reaching behind them as if preparing to react defensively. As soon as they saw she wasn’t coming any closer, they stood themselves upright.  There was no use in provoking a fight if the enemy too sought a peaceful resolution. They spoke rather monotonously for the sake of circumstances, an undertone of empathy leaking past their initial intention of intimidation.<br>
<br>
“Unfortunately my name will mean very little in a time shorter than you’d think.” Their eyes flickered to the master, then to the captive being studied in the space provided. “I wish to see the female that has been corrupted by the elf man’s magic.” Looking back, they noticed their Sibling gone from the initial break off point, stirring a bit of panic within the speaker. This wasn’t according to the plan. Pray to the gods they weren’t trying to--<br>
<br>
Not too far from either of them, there seemed to be a soft ‘thud’, as if two sheltered feet had infiltrated its way into the tree. Residue of magic wifted through the stiff air, signaling the potential method of entry.<br>
<br>
--Sneak in. Keanu’s throat tightened, an ear listening in on the conversation between the elven man and the newly transformed female. Senka. So that was their rescuee-to-be’s name. Their fingers wiggled slightly with anticipation, dividing their attention between the elf, the female and the magic caster they believed to be their beloved Sibling.<br>
<br>
“I politely request entry,” Keanu peered back over to the much smaller being with pin pricked eyes. “I wish to speak with the owner of this household as well as the cage...female.”</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">"What did you do to me?!" Senka yelled as black flames danced on her finger tips "What is this?" she asked darkly her eyes dark and menacing, if looks could kill. <br>
<br>
The elf only grinned "ah hah" he chirped as he stood up moving over to the cage. "You were reborn from the void that killed you.... little bird." He said with a wicked sharp grin. "You belong to me now." he informed her revealing the same void rune on top of his own hand. <br>
<br>
The cage was tall enough to where she could comfortably sit up on her knees as she launched forward trying to reach her arm through the bars to grab him. The elf didn't move knowing he was just outside of her reach. "tsk tsk..." he tutted as he leaned back against the chair waiting for the cage's properties to kick in the instant she touched the bar, "ohhh stubborn?" The elf asked seeing her grip the bar her face contorting in a pained expression while steam hissed out of her hand before she caved and released the bar backing up to the middle  and looking around realizing that's what the pillows were for. To protect her from the iron icy barrier that enclosed her. <br>
<br>
"Still just as stubborn as your former self..." Kayos sighed. "I'll let you out when you learn to behave civilly." He muttered as he pulled over a heavy black blanket over the cage enclosing her to darkness. <br>
<br>
The fairy looked Keanu over very carefully although he wouldn't be able to see that her eyes were watching through the roses on her master's mask. "you're not from this world..." she whispered while curiosity filled her being that pushed back the fear rising up like forcing bile back down to keep from puking. <br>
<br>
The elf straightened as he sensed the magic in the air and stiffened. He pulled off his mask from on top of his head and he noticed the eyes inside the roses were opened. Narrowing his already sharp eyes he flicked them up to the cage hanging not far above his head. "Skye!" He yelled looking over towards the door. <br>
<br>
The fairy jumped as the eyes in the roses blinked. "You wish to meet my master, then simply knock on the door. He already knows you're here." She said flying back up to where her little door was in the tree and back inside she hovered down to her master's shoulder. "We have visitors." She told him as the eyes on the roses closed. <br>
<br>
Kayos nodded and held up his hand making the door click and slowly creek open as the elf finished placing his own mask on his face to greet the guest standing outside his home.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">"How do you know..?" Keanu scanned over her. Unfortunately perception was not their strong suit. They reached behind themselves, summoning two Sickles into their hands. "Who are you? What do you and elf man know of us? Of magic? " <br>
<br>
<br>
The loud notions of shouting from within spooked the void being as well, gripping their weapon tighter. "Knock on the-" He knew they were there? Was he aware of their siblings entry as well? <br>
<br>
<br>
Their hand closed into fist, about to take on the fairy's advice when the door unlatched within, revealing the very man they witnessed with the female before. Keanu mustered a small breathe in hopes to keep the man's attention off of Kai. <br>
<br>
<br>
"Good evening, sir. I am here on account of the recently used magic that filled the environment." They glanced over his shoulder with a small curiosity at both of the cages.<br>
<br>
<br>
Feigning magical ignorance would have to do in this case. "While I do not know the nature of the type magic being used, I was able to detect from afar. What I do know is that I am here to discover the source of said magic." <br>
<br>
<br>
Whilst the two conversed, sounds of cages being attempted into unlatching and fussing was evident. Kai's fingers curled into the bars of the cage belonging to the one called Senka, their eyes on her. "Hang on. We'll have you freed soon," they whispered.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Kaos eyed Keanu up and down as though he was studying him in a long silence before letting a smile befall his lips. "You should know that curiosity can lead to rather dangerous situations... and well you're lucky I'm not a dangerous person." The elf spoke, his voice dripping with deceit.  His eyes then scanned passed the boy in front of him and out into the woods as though to check and see if he was alone before deciding there was not much of a threat. Slowly the elf reached up and pulled the mask up and on top of his head before continuing. <br>
<br>
"The magic you probably detect was well I guess what some would consider dark magic. Its usage is usually forbidden among most people... so I left society to... study it." Kaos spoke slowly as he mulled over each word while carefully answering the inquiry. The elf chuckled "would you like to see?" He asked stepping aside as his wards kicked up and a brunt force would be pushing Keanu inside the door frame while the elf turned to face the intruder. <br>
<br>
"Breaking and entering is general frowned upon." He said calmly as his eyes shifted from Kai to Keanu and back and forth. His smile hat turned into a rather sick and twisted grin at this point while he chuckled. "However, I don't mind the company... won't you stay awhile?" He asked. As soon as Keanu would step inside the door would shut and lock them in. <br>
<br>
The fairy on top of the elf's shoulder began to grow nervous as she stood up and looked at Keanu afraid for him before her attention turned to Kai as she stared at him wide eyed, before fluttering up to the safety of her cage. The roses once again opened revealing a pair of purple eyes watching the twins. <br>
<br>
"In that cage is a new discovery." Kaos said with a grin as he walked over, never quite turning his back to the two. He scrunched the blanket in his right hand and pulled back the material to reveal his experiment. <br>
<br>
Still in human form the girl sat with her knees to her chest and arms crossed on top while her head nestled on her arms. She straightened as the blanket lifted and her eyes focused on Kai wondering if what he said was true. Could he really free her from this place. She jumped slightly at the sound of Kaos high pitched laughter with a sick grin the elf placed a hand on top of the cage and gave it a pat. "Be careful... she might look harmless now... but...." he grinned looking at Kai while keeping distance in case the two tried attacking. <br>
<br>
"Do you know what she is?" He asked.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Keanu watched his lips, reading them as he spoke. He assured them he wasn’t a dangerous person, that made it okay, right? Maybe there was a misunderstanding. No individual would benefit off of lying. They turned their head, peering back into the forest before facing him again, as if to falsely confirm they were indeed alone. <br>
<br>
“Curiosity is indeed dangerous, but only if done improperly, sir.” Their voice was flat, yet far from disinterested to the conversation. “Dark magic? Forbidden? But sir, it is a beautiful thing. It possesses an aura humans especially cannot understand.” They mistaken the force as a stumble of their own upon walking in, slowly stopping their pace upon the sight of their Sibling.<br>
<br>
<br>
Kai, on the other hand, looked right back at the elf, their own expression indecipherable. “Sibling, come beside me. We’ve much to discuss,” they murmured lowly. It picks back up to address the elf. “And so is the improper use of dark magic -- particularly for experimentations.” Pin-pricked eyes flicker to the door shutting, their displeasure, if any, evergrowing at the elf’s gesture of locking them in. “Not particularly. We were just leaving, as a matter of fact.” Their gaze flitters to the fairy. She would have to be noted for later.<br>

“Sibling, play nice..! He means no harm, he said so himself,” Keanu looked to Kaos, as if to confirm their own statement. He was nice, right? He smiled and offered a place from the cold. There were conversations, and no weapons were being drawn. They step in front of Kai, indulging the elf’s excitement. “A new discovery? What kind?” Eyebrows knitted at the sight of the girl, looking at the ‘host’. “Sir, that’s a human, isn’t it? They’re..not supposed to be in cages. I don’t believe so, at least.”</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Kaos smiled enthralled with how gullible Keanu was. He chuckled "indeed, dark magic is a beautiful thing and often misunderstood by those who do not understand it." he agreed half heartedly before his eyes drifted to the intruder once again. A sickening grin twisted on his lips as he chuckled "Improper use?" He huffed. "tell me? Are you the warrens of such magic?" He huffed his light heartedness brimming with anger at the accusations that reminded him of his past. <br>
<br>
"Ah... yes a new discovery!" The elf clapped his hands together his voice pitched again with excitement as his anger seemed to subside for now. He chuckled at Keanu's observation regarding humans. "I'd imagine some belong in cages..." he said with a shrug before waving his hand as though dismissing the thought. "She isn't a human." He said pointedly "That right there is a phoenix in a human disguise... but she is no ordinary phoenix." he spoke eagerly, as he patted the top of the cage. "Go on dear... why don't you show them." He cooed. <br>
<br>
Senka only glared at the elf and the two guests as she crossed her arms stubbornly. Kaos sighed "your will is bound to mind with the rune, you realize. If I force you to show them, I promise you that it will be painful than if you just willingly shifted." He said revealing the rune on his hand as it lightly glowed. <br>
<br>
The disguised phoenix stared at the rune and could feel the compulsion to shift into her bird form. It was already uncomfortable to shift between forms a pain they grew used to but to be forced to contort and shift the bones didn't sound very appealing. Vague memories flashed in her mind before she was reborn and the painful things the elf had put her through. If he promised her pain, then there was no way he was bluffing. She huffed in aggravation as her human form began to erupt in black flames before shifting into a medium sized bird. Magic protected the pillows from burning and steam hissed from the bars and ceiling of the cage as the flames licked the icy barrier. <br>
<br>
"ah hah! Delightful!" Kaos spoke all too pleased with the girl's cooperation before turning his attention back to the twins. "what you call improper, is merely science. It's understandable that one would fear what they do not know." he said his focus now on kai figuring they would be the troublesome one out of the two. "The phoenix was dying, and I tried to... well I tried to save it with void magic... and this was the result." That was more or less true, after all they were intruders and didn't need to know exactly what lead up to the phoenix's capture and ultimately her demise. <br>
<br>
"Now then... given that well a phoenix typically doesn't have black flames, nor is this small... I can't just release her into the wild. What if she harmed an innocent village in a fit of rage?" He spoke as though he had done something noble.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">“Something of the sort.” Kai maintained their gaze on the elf. There had to be a way to reunite with their sibling. The way Keanu continued to step forward, asking all sorts of questions and enstating commentary that they well knew was dangerous in nature … Kai could only determine where this was going. <br>
<br>
<br>
Their jaw locked at the elf’s excitement. It was inappropriate, to say the very least. Inappropriate to gawk upon another being as some sort of scientific experiment. Hells, they WERE a scientific discovery with how the man in question circled the female, tapping the cage with an air of pride. It disgusted them. Bile, was it? The substance that humans produced when in a state of extreme discomfort. If they were capable of producing such a chemical, it’d most certainly be arising at the elf’s justification of the caged humanoid and the pressuring of transformation. “She isn’t a spectacle to be observed.” Kai stated coldly.<br>
<br>
<br>
“Now, now, sibling. Let him speak. I’m sure he has his reasons.” Keanu pranced to their sibling’s side, arms snaking around Kai’s upper forearm.<br>
<br>
<br>
“She is being controlled, Sibling Keanu.” Kai tilted their head to create some interactive space between the two. “Human or not, she isn’t some mindless creature that deserves to be locked up.”<br>
<br>
<br>
“I’m sure it’s temporary. Just enough until she settles in her new form. Like helping a … what was that creature that we studied about before arriving? A bird? An animal? They are often in cages. She resembles both a human and…” The black flames reflected in Keanu’s eyes, amazement washing over them as the sudden transformation. “See? I told you! She’s not a creature that’s ready to be out in the world. It’s only for a little bit and then she’s good as new!”<br>
<br>
<br>
Kai flinched at the contrast in magic. It took every being within themself to not pull away from Keanu then and there. They were stronger together, after all. Union was the one thing they had against any other race. The one reason why they’ve won virtually any battle was their teamwork and communication. Without them….<br>
<br>
<br>
But the ‘elder’ of the two had other plans in their agenda. “Void magic, as you’ve proven to understand thus far, is incredibly dangerous. It corrupts organic lifeform into something far more unstable. The few who have mastered this form of casting are prone to either corruption of their own or insanity.” It seems as though the elf possessed both, they wanted to continue. Perhaps if Keanu wasn’t so close to them, such thoughts could be exchanged. <br>
<br>
<br>
“Fear the unknown? Then, elf, you’ve much to learn.” A black plasma-like substance crept from beneath Kai, inching its way to the cage. Tips of the essence ‘reached’ out in the form of an extension, adept magic users being able to identify the type of spell-cast as a form of corrupting magic. “I suppose it goes without saying that you’ve neither saved nor helped anyone in this circumstance but yourself. I don’t suppose you intend to go on and present these ‘findings’ to a board ship of some sort. Do you?” Their question was less of scientific curiosity and more of condescension laced in their emotionless state.<br>
<br>
<br>
“Sibling….” Keanu interjected, gripping the ‘elder’s’ arm. This wasn’t a side of them they were used to. Typically they were impartial and interested in observing. Heck, they would’ve even AGREED to the whole ‘science’ bit, given they’ve heard them use the same justification in the face disciplining criminals. Something about ‘philosophical discovery’ and ‘testing the bounds of mortal acceptance’. So what was the issue now? Because someone else did it? "You're being rude," they whispered quietly to the other, following the hidden attack on the cage with their eyes. "You do the same thing back home and far worse. I don't get what the big deal is here."</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">The flames erupted the barrier keeping them from extending outside the bars as the bird shapeshifted back to her human form and dark orange eyes glared at the three who stood around her like she was on display. The only one who seemed to make any sense was Kai. "You speak as though I do not understand you..." She said looking at Keanu with a dark glare before addressing the elf. "The only creature to attack an innocent village without cause would likely be a dragon. I am no dragon... I do not attack without purpose or cause." Senka pridefully stated. <br>
<br>
Kaos chuckled, "don't think so highly of yourself bird. Your kind is known for their irrational actions." He spoke dismissively as he looked at the two siblings amused by how they spoke and by the evident conflict between the two. <br>
<br>
"I'm going to assume you aren't from around here... there is no board of science well maybe among humans... but we elves...." he paused a moment before correcting himself, "I research for myself to understand the world and the countless possibilities. You don't know much about phoenixes, do you? She has nowhere to go. Her clan would never accept her like this." he stated and smirked seeing the creature in question look down pained by the truth of his statement. <br>
<br>
Kaos felt an energy although he couldn't place it as his eyes fixated between the two siblings, although most of his focus remained on Kai. The fairy had felt it too as she fluttered down from her nook the decorative mask hiding her face she hovered in front of the siblings for a moment before flying over and perching herself on Kaos' head.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">“She has a point.” Kai feigned surprise at Senka’s statement. It was true- from the vast books accessible in the Neverworld, never has there been any stories of phoenixes intentionally harming villages; it was all dragons. Phoenixes, in actuality, represented the rebirth of something. Much to the twisted irony of her case, the female was in fact, reborn. Just not in the same context as desired. If any attacks were to be made, it would be out of sheer self-defense. <br>
<br>
<br>
Their attention redirected to Kaos, their unamusement level beneath a poker face. “Irrational actions … yet you ‘created’ her. Tell me, elf, why exactly was a phoenix recreated in her assistance when the species is known for ‘irrational’ actions? Had I not known better, I would have believed you were trying to frame her.<br>
<br>
<br>
“We aren’t from around here, are we, Sibling? No, no. We’ve come from the far lands of--” Kai covered Keanu’s mouth before they could continue. They needed to leave, and fast. This interaction was putting on a strain on both the ‘elder’ personally and the overall relationship of the twins. Never in a million years would Kai even remotely consider placing a hand on their sibling to keep them from speaking. But now of all times, their oblivious and child-like naiveness was going to actually get them killed. If the elf was this excited over a small experiment of power, hells forbid the mention of the power source emitting from the Neverworld was ever brought up. Given the nature of the realm and energy producing farms its open farmlands have provided; it was near inevitable the topic would arise should that can of worms be so much as cracked. Then there was the topic of what the twins did which devolved into another topic altogether.<br>
<br>
<br>
The ‘younger’ sibling turned their head in Kai’s direction, unfurling their familial embrace to step from them, pulling their head away. “That wasn’t very nice, Sibling. I was speaking. Just like you, mister elf and miss phoenix were I have a turn too.” Their expression softened, head turning towards Senka in time to see her peer down in shame. They approached the bars, lowering themselves into a kneel to pluck the black substance from the cage and back towards Kai for the supressed stunt just moments ago. “Miss, don’t listen to him. We’ll help you get back home, okay?”<br>
<br>
“Sibling she isn’t a child. She’ll be fine.” Kai placed their hands in the pockets of their silk kimono, adjusting it in the process. “...As soon as the elf releases her, she’ll be as free as can be without harming anyone else. Isn’t that right?” The last bit of their question was directly aimed for Senka, their eyes searching her person for any signs of blemishes or bruises.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Kaos beamed at the two clearly amused at their interaction with one another. His eyes narrowed at the accusations of Kai followed by a hint of intrigue as Keanu began to speak before being abruptly interrupted. <br>
<br>
Senka looked at Keanu and gave a sad smile before looking at Kai with a much more serious face she tilted her head unsure of what he seemed to be searching for. After all any signs of misuse would have been washed away from the rebirth. The only thing to show up on her skin now was the rune that claimed her soul as void. "The elf is right... I can't go back home. My clan pride themselves in purification... I wouldn't be considered pure. My life is forfeit..." she whispered looking down. <br>
<br>
"Don't be so dramatic." Kaos said rolling his eyes as he looked between the two. "I've only stated the facts. You act as though I'm some sort of villain." He said rather appalled. <br>
<br>
The elf sighed "Perhaps as an act of good faith, I let the little bird out of her cage.. hmm?" He said as he walked over to the other side and pulled a key from his pocket and unlocked the cage stepping back. <br>
<br>
Senka cautiously pushed the cage door open before slowly climbing out still very hesitant of what game the elf was playing. Once she was out and standing she didn't hesitate to lunge at the elf her hand engulfed in the black flames. Kaos' icy blue eyes glinted as though he was expecting her to try something. The roses on his mask opened again and the fair flew up in front of Kaos her hands held up palms facing the phoenix creating a barrier between the two. The barrier encircled around Senka's hand extinguishing the flames before circling around her arm like a snake and stabbed into the rune on her forearm. Senka collapsed to the floor shrieking with pain as her other hand cupped the marking to shield it from the dark magic snake. <br>
<br>
Kaos sighed "if you can't be civil then you'll just have to stay in the cage. Here these two guests request you be released and on good faith I do so... and this is how you repay me?" the elf tutted. <br>
<br>
The eyes on the mask blinked and the barrier vanished. Skye flew over towards Keanu and plopped ontop of his head "Master? Will they be staying for dinner?" she asked. <br>
<br>
The elf glared slightly seeing his fairy so close to the stranger but didn't address it. "What sort of host would I be if I didn't invite these two delights to stay for dinner." He said with a chuckle. "How rude… I don't think I ever got your names. I am Kaos," He stated giving a gracious bow to the two of them "The fairy on your head is Skye." He added ignoring introducing the phoenix for now as she remained on the floor rubbing her arm while catching her breath.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">“You were held against your will and tainted.” Kai suggested matter-of-factly. His eyes studied her person on the runes, then at the symbols that matched on the elf’s hand. He internally facepalmed himself. Control void magic. He was using control void magic right in front of them and he didn’t blink an eye. The specific form of magic was especially forbidden for its invasive nature back in the Neverworld. “Let’s calculate. You took a person against her will. Placed her in a cage. Engaged in not only void magic but void magic that corrupts AND controls others. Your ‘pet’ here doesn’t seem exactly thrilled on your highdoings. I find it rather hard to blame her.”<br>
<br>
<br>
“It must be an elf thing, Sibling. They tend to believe they are doing the gods gifts wonders but they don’t particularly mean ill-will by it.” Keanu defended. “It’s just like back home when you’d purify prisoners against their will so they will be removed by organic labels and impurities!”<br>
<br>
<br>
The two fell silent at the elf’s proposal, both seeming to be on the same side once more. Kai was more pleased at the notion, Keanu curious. They step back, both aware of the phoenix’s rage. The ‘younger’ of the two stepped forward in attempt to break them apart when Kai pulled them back. <br>
<br>
<br>
“This is their battle, Sibling.” Kai’s composure returned.<br>
<br>
<br>
“Not while it’s happening in front of us! He’s hurting her!” Keanu yanked against the sibling’s arm. It grew stronger at the presence of the runes, a few flashbacks of their own disrupting their defenses of the elf earlier. Once they were free they bolted in front of Senka, two arakh’s forming from the same substance Kai was using earlier on the cages. They were standing in an assassin’s stance before the elf, straggling to keep their eyes on the male in front of them. “I...I’m sorry for defending you earlier, sir. But I can’t anymore. She’s upset and as much as I disagree with my Sibling. They typically have more knowledge with the usage of magic and its laws and and …” The fairy spoke of dinner, queing Keanu to quieten down. Food did sound nice, maybe it’d help settle the hostilities that went on between the four of them. <br>
<br>
<br>
“Dinner would be excellent.” Kai’s voice arose from behind Keanu, making the decision for the both of them. “I am Kai, this is my identical Sibling, Keanu. And to your comment earlier- we are in fact not from around here” That was as much as they were willing to offer. Nothing more nothing less of where they were from or what their roles were. They offer a nod as Skye was introduced, then looked at the phoenix, acknowledging her but also respecting the air of the audience.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Kaos simply stood relaxed as he watched Keanu move towards him in an aggressive manner with two arakhs conjured up by what appeared to be similar magic. His eyes casually flicked over to Kai as they gave their answer. "Excellent." He said quite amused by the unexpected visit. "Skye... would you prepare dinner?" He asked. <br>
<br>
The fairy stayed hovering as Keanu came towards Kaos. The elf was of course capable of defending himself however he didn't like to reveal all of his cards, he liked to keep the enemy guessing. "Yes... master." She stated before flying off. <br>
<br>
"Now then, Senka... I'll let you remain out of the cage if you promise to behave." he said looking down at the phoenix as she pushed herself back up to a standing position and walked over to Kai looking him over curiously. The rune on her forearm pulsed slightly the closer she moved to him. "Come... I'll show you where we will dine." he said walking over to the corner of the room where a spiraled staircase appeared. He started walking up walking slow until they were all following him up to the second floor of his woodland home. <br>
<br>
The second floor held a beautiful large wooden table decorated with carvings of leaves and flowers. wooden chairs that matched circled around. One chair did stand out from the others as it was obvious it was for the head of the table and ultimately the head of the household it had a longer back and unlike the other chairs it had arm rests. <br>
<br>
"Please sit..." Kaos said gesturing to the chairs as he took his seat at the head of the table. there were already drinks placed for them fresh water and mead.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">The twins reunited with one another now that the tension was over. Keanu lowered their weaponry and resumed their position with their arms around Kai’s. They leaned into them for a sort of familial comfort. Kai returned the gaze at Senka, welcoming the silent observation upon their person. Once the spiral case opened, they extended a hand, signaling for her to go first. Had the elf decided to try anything new, Kai was more than prepared to retaliate without hesitation. He may have slipped past their sibling’s guard but the ‘elder’ of the two was more than ready to go into a battle should the need arise.<br>
<br>
<br>
“Come Sibling,” Keanu tugged on Kai’s arm, making an attempt to drag them. This was yet another thing that was studied back in the Neverworld- food. Basic human and organic necessities. Supposedly the specimen would sit around and rely on lifeless organisms -- sometimes those of weaker standard -- to energize themselves. It was barbaric, to say the least and gruesome but it fascinated the void deity nonetheless. Back home, there wasn’t any of this ‘food’ or ‘water’ business. Only shelter. Shelter, and the occasional intruders that Sibling would draw the soul essence from them. According to Sibling Kai, they didn’t need much in comparison to organisms from other dimensions. The nothingness, however, came at a cost to which Kai offered to explain when they were ‘older’.<br>
<br>
<br>
Kai and Keanu followed the elf through the staircase. Much to Kai’s expectation, Keanu tugged harder on the sight of the elongated table with the water and mead presented. When they realized their Sibling wouldn’t budge, they released their grasp, bee-lining for the head of the chair when the elf took his seat. Their fast-walk slowed to just a walk, taking a random seat at the table to cover their creeping embarassment at the missed cue. They caught a disapproving glance from Kai, the ‘elder’ taking their place at a safe distance from the elf himself, keeping a chair open for Senka.<br>
<br>
"Will the fairy be joining us as well?" Keanu inquired, eyes watching the mysterious clear liquid before looking back at their host.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Senka followed along after the elf after all food did sound good and she was quite exhausted from the stress placed on herself. She took a seat next to Kai feeling a slight comfort from them. She looked over the water and the mead curiously before sighing. If the elf wanted her dead she assumed he would have killed her already and upon that thought she held the cup up to her lips and took in a small taste of the sweet alcoholic substance. <br>
<br>
Kaos' attention was directed on the phoenix seeing her the most threatening thing in here. He didn't realize the missed cue of Keanu as he watched the non human girl take a sip of the mead. "hmm" he said redirecting his attention to Keanu as they spoke. "Oh... Skye? Of course she'll be joining us." he said with a nod. The fairy never went too far from him after all he had her eyes and if she wished to have any form of sight she was practically glued to his side. The elf took off the mask and placed it on the table beside him the roses looked still and normal aside from the occasional flutter. <br>
<br>
Not too long after everyone had taken their seats and were situated various foods were brought out by dark shadow like beings with no face or any features other than they looked like a human's shadow. An assortment of cooked meat was placed on the table along with various flavors of elven bread, there was fruit and cheeses brought out as well. The elf figured something should satisfy his guests. "Elven bread is very filling... elves can sustain ourselves on a loaf for weeks at a time. Skye likes sweet things so requested there be different flavors." Kaos explained to the two foreigners unsure of what they knew about elves and didn't want them getting sick. The elf didn't fancy meat and had really only had it made for the phoenix. Of course she could live off of elven bread as well but it wouldn't be as satisfying and he'd rather keep her peaceful as much as possible while he had guests. Had they not shown up she would still be caged and offered bread to eat using the meat as a reward. <br>
<br>
One of the shadows came up beside Keanu and began to place a tiny table and pillow and what looked to be fairy sized food before disappearing along with its brethren. Skye flew in from what could only be guessed as the kitchen and perched herself on the pillow at her little table. <br>
<br>
"Now then... Please... eat..." Kaos gestured to the fixings on the table while he reached for a small slice of elven bread and some of the cheese and grapes to eat.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Kai felt Senka’s presence as she sat down. Their posture tightened as they pulled the chair to sit, keeping a subtle eye on their sibling as they bee-lined for the host’s chair. The elder prepared to reprimand them for their obliviousness, but it seemed as though the elf paid little to no mind. Swallowing the planned action, their eyes drifted over to the mead, eyebrows pushing in one another.<br>
Odd. They’ve never seen this type of drink before. They were aware of soft beverages, water and the occasional caffenaited drinks that humans oh-so lovingly depended on. But nothing about a yellowish glistening substance. Their fingertips gently pushed the cup away from themself, observing the overall mood of the room.<br>
<br>
“Splendid! I believe gatherings are far more fulfilling when everyone’s present, wouldn’t you agree, Sibling?” Keanu’s eyes curved upward with a smile of their own, entirely unaware of Kaos’ observation of the phoenix. Kai, on the other hand, shifted in their seat, following the elf’s eyes with their own before feigning a nod to indulge their sibling’s dependent nature. <br>
The ‘younger’ of the two took their seat as well, opting for the spot on the side of the table right across from Kai. It took them a few minutes to adjust into the wooden curvature before resting their forearms on the edge of the massive table. Their eyes rested on the mask, they would have inquired about its magical nature but Kai’s eyes bore into them while they weren’t looking.<br>
<br>
Shadow creatures entered the premises serving a variety of meats, fruits, cheeses and a strange bread that Kaos explained to be unique to elven culture. Keanu twisted in their seat, watching the magic servants bringing out the food, then in the other direction once the beings were out of their line of sight. <br>
“Elves can live on just bread? Dontcha just get sick of it after a while?” A plate of meat was set before them. It was fine for the most part, aside from the churning stomach and constricting chest at the scent. Keanu continued with the conversation to take their mind off of the pungent scent, reaching for a small piece nonetheless. Sibling always emphasized the importance of trying everything at least once - especially in an organism’s territory. Refusing to do so resulted in being impolite. “What sort of flavors are there?” <br>
They feel an absent presence approach to their right, an entire set up much smaller than they could imagine next to them. Keanu offered a welcoming smile to the fairy as she perched herself down, their hands reaching behind their head to adjust a messy ponytail to look a bit more presentable before the hosts.<br>
<br>
Kai reached for a platter of cheeses, pale fingertips searching for a collection of fruit of their choosing. They wanted to inquire about the strange drink but truth be told, they could possibly trust a half eaten rat than the elf in the moment, if at all. After helping themselves, they passed a platter of cheese to Senka, minding her company. “So indulge us, elf. What type are you?” The ‘elder’ attempted abruptly. Conversation was never a specialty of theirs but anything was better than the silence.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Kaos chuckled at Keanu's response and nodded "Indeed, bread get grow quite tiring to the palate. It is useful in situations when very little to eat of other things. I like to think of it as more of a fall back of survivability if you will." He explained to the them as he bit into a piece of strawberry. "It's mostly just a sweet substance, but can be infused with well I suppose whatever flavor you want... I personally enjoy fruit flavors." <br>
<br>
Senka took the plate of cheese and set it aside her eyes set on the various of meats that she took a hearty plate full and paused a moment as she looked at the silverware human or even rather humanoid like customs were not something she was familiar with. So as she saw everyone else picking at the cheeses and bread with their hands she did so with the slab of roast picking at it and pulling pieces off popping them into her mouth savoring the taste of cooked meat. Although she did miss hunting for her food, that was half the fun this was nice too. <br>
<br>
Kaos watched the phoenix quite amused as she studied her before the silent observation was broken by Kai's question. "In origin I'm a woodland elf. However to others I'm considered a dark elf or" he paused scoffing a moment "a corrupted elf." He cleared his throat and continued. "While magic is common around here, people still fear what they don't understand or control. I discovered the use of absent magic, they considered it a dark magic but I think of it more as void. There are no natural properties to such a magic. Most spells can be explained in rather how it is possible. A woodland elf has connection to the woods. The trees speak to us with the use of mana energy that naturally abides in the air we are able to manipulate things such as vines for example. Depending on how strong one is, you could even command the trees to move and do your bidding. This void magic... there is no property to it... no natural connection, it just simply is." He finished explaining eager to see the twins responses. <br>
<br>
"Corrupted would be far more accurate of term from your people, master." Skye spoke up her voice small but still very audible and almost sound like a pleasant chime of bells. "There are creatures... that exist as what the humans and most elves consider to be dark in nature and dark magic. It would seem that dark magic is very different from this void magic we discovered."  She adjusted the decorative mask she had over her eyes to hide the fact that well her eyes were in missing from her skull as she reached out to take another bite of food. <br>
<br>
Kaos nodded approvingly. "Ah yes, Skye is what we call a dark fairy, or moon fairy is the more pleasant term. Her magic mana source comes from the moon itself so her magic is stronger at night and dependent on the cycle of the moon. Although fairies have their own magical properties that don't solely rely on mana."Kaos explained. <br>
<br>
"You seem oddly sure of yourself for presenting a strengths and weaknesses to an enemy elf." Senka boldly spoke as her eyes shifted from her picked roast to the elf. <br>
<br>
The elf only smirked as his eyes bore into Senka's "Then you have a phoenix... who is an entirely different creature all together. Humans call them magical... but it's just the properties they are born with. The fire is apart of them and well they just recently learned to shift into humanoid which that is foreign from their natural ability. Some refuse to shapeshift finding it impure to do so. They can only wield fire though... and all fire really does is destroy according to the humans, hence why their are so very few clans left." <br>
<br>
The elf's words stung as Senka noticeably winced before looking back down with a scowl as she picked at her meat in silence leaving the elf pleased with her response. "What you consider viable information I consider common knowledge. I could either tell my guests or refuse. If I refuse and they truly are curious it's nothing different than what you could find in books. What you consider insight regarding void magic is nothing really more than a theory. No one really knows what this void magic is... People are scared to find out, to experiment with it. Elven and most human laws forbid it. I however wanted to learn from it, why live in fear of something when you can learn to understand how it works? Take it however you will."</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">“Any flavor..?” Keanu echoed slowly. Their attention drifted to the reddish pink eupherism between the elves’ fingers, then back at a sliver of bread that rested on their own plate. It was sweet. Heavenly, even. The scent lingered to the edge of their nose, motivating them to reach for one of their own. “So elves eat bread like an organism would resort to remains or each other for food.” The ‘younger’ concluded. “Sibling told me that organisms eat one another if they are left without much else. I find it rather barbaric if you ask me.”<br>
<br>
“Sibling.” Kai firmly corrected. For someone as old as they, they behaved far much younger than they’ve taught them. Regardless of their thoughts of the host, they would by no means allow the elf to see either of them as misunderstood; or worse - ignorant. “Organisms eat those they deem as below them, Sibling. Not their own kind. There is a difference.” Their fingers caressed the outside of their slice of bread. They looked over in Senka’s direction, observing her reaction before the meat, then at the elf as he bit into the strawberry. They leaned towards Senka with a slight whisper. “Pardon me. I must have gotten the organisms’ customs wrong but I passed the plate so you could try the condensed dairy meal.”<br>
<br>
Gazing back down at their portion, their nose crinkled lightly in confusion. <br>
Food and consumption was never really an event that occurred in the Neverworld. At least, not in the sense that organisms were used to. Soul consumption was far more common, and that was among those who understood how to effectively do so. Given it was one of the many factors that divided the people in the Neverworld, it was an active objective to teach all the citizens the activity. A working process, but at the top of the twin’s list nonetheless.<br>
<br>
Kai’s brows rose. A woodland elf? Elves as a whole were supposed to be a secretive species, especially from humans. Woodland elves were notorious for remaining hidden in plain sight. That was, of course, according to the books they were given. The information provided has been known to be outdated at times, getting them and their sibling in a bit of hot water.<br>
As soon as the word ‘dark’ and ‘corrupted’ uttered from the elves’ lips, however, there was an urge to push out of their seat and bolt for the nearest exit.<br>
<br>
But nothing demonstrated cowardice to the enemy faster than a knee-jerk reaction. Instead, their fingertips pierced the skin of the bread as it was being lifted up. They felt Keanu’s eyes on them, the ‘younger’ equally aware of the weight of the words. To Neverworld Sentients, corruption was a form of magic that was used by authorities to obtain control of their prisoners. Prisoners became consciously zombified puppets, aware of everything but having no voluntary control over their own movements. It was used in extreme situations, and very rarely. The only other individuals capable of using corruption magic were--<br>
<br>
“I think I understand.” Keanu broke the silence, placing their cup of sweet alcohol down. “Humans can be rather fickle creatures, placing labels on things that they are unfamilar with -- including each other. It’s upsetting, really but until they learn the damage that is done through imposing labels on one another…” They cleared their throat, stopping their own repetitive thoughts. “Dark magic is a beauty if you understand its true nature. A succumbing nature, I find because there’s so much to explore..!”<br>
<br>
“Do you still retain connection to the woods?” Kai chimed in, attempting to drift Keanu away from their enthusiasm. There was a certain way they became at the sheer nature. As if actively seeking to play devil’s advocate to such a dangerous force. While the ‘elder’ was open to discussing virtually anything with them, dark magic was absolutely off the table. As Kaos continued about his knowledge on void magic, Kai began to freeze internally. He knew alot more than they anticipated. Given the elf’s observant nature, they didn’t have long before their aroused fears were suspected. “...And who, pray tell, gave you access to such a force?” Kai’s tone was even, given the dip at the very end that threatened to fall into a whisper of disbelief.<br>
<br>
The twins’ attention sychronized onto Skye as she spoke, each with a separate reaction to her pulling the mask over her eyes. Kai paid more attention to the information that was being given while Keanu leaned in to see what exactly she was hiding over her ‘eyes’. “Creatures? What type of creatures?” The voice belonged to Keanu now, their question directed at everyone but relied on Kai for information. “Sibling are there more of our kind here in this dimension?”<br>
<br>
“Sibling, I wouldn’t find it appropriate--” Kai allowed themself to be cut off, a bit allured at the ‘younger’’s evergrowing curiosity.<br>
<br>
“To think we’d be the only void deities sitting around in the Neverworld -- there were more all along!” Keanu rested their palms on the massively smooth table, looking between the host and hostess respectively. “You have to show us, Mister Kaos and Miss Skye. We’d be forever indebted to you both.”<br>
<br>
Kai wanted the world to swallow them both whole in that moment. So much information in such a small span of time, and Keanu was giving out much more than they’d care to begin to admit. Perhaps there was a way to salvage this conversation. “So it seems you both are a tight-knit bunch.” They kept what remained of their external composure, bringing the bread finally to their mouth and biting a small edge off. “A dark fairy? I’ve heard those are even a rarer sight to see around the magical world. How exactly would you happen to have one in your possession?”  They internally nodded at Senka’s observation. Only a fool would have presented everything they possessed without having an ulterior motive. The elf clearly demonstrated himself as anything but.<br>
<br>
The ‘elder’’s head’s turned at Senka, as if reintroduced to her presence at her reference. Phoenix’s were among the few they’ve yet to have gotten around to remotely reading about, muchless in-depth studying. They refused to admit it aloud, but the information the elf presented was invaluable to their library of knowledge. As soon as the female demonstrated visible pain, they turned away, snapping out of the minor trance. “Learning is one thing, prying is another.” Kai resumed their controlled tone. “Using the knowledge against those who forbade it can get you in immense amount of trouble, especially with those of your own kind. There is a reason it was deemed forbidden.”<br>
<br>
“I don’t know, Sibling.” Keanu began gently, taking another sip of their mead. “If it’s for research purposes, someone is bound to know something somewhere. If not he, then maybe those who forbade it. You’ve said so yourself: Organisms as a kind are rather untrustworthy. It would be in each individuals’ best interest to learn what they can for survival purposes.”<br>
<br>
“Have we forgotten the result of the research?” Kai allowed themself a sneer in their sibling’s direction. “Of all things, organic experimentation is by far--”<br>
<br>
“You’ve done before,” Keanu returned with a slight hiss. “Especially to prisoners. Turning those that are not in your favor against one another. Erasing their memory before turning their remains into militarized mush.”</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Senka looked at Kai as he whispered to her and nodded "I'm really only like meat." she whispered back to him while still keeping her eyes on the elf.<br>
<br>
The elf grinned at the change in events and was quite well pleased with conversation. If it wasn't clear before it certainly was clear now that the two siblings were not apart of this world in any way. He nodded to Keanu "humans are the worst, but even elves can be just as fickle. Controlled by their pride..." he gave a long sigh as he looked up as though recalling a memory. He almost seemed lost in thought as he listened to the two speak back and forth. He noted the snappish tone presented by Keanu towards the end as silence fell again and he looked back towards his guests with a small smirk. <br>
<br>
"I'm not sure an elf is capable of losing their connection with the woods..." he thought out loud rather curious of the notion and it was something he would definitely experiment with at a later date. "but to answer your question I still maintain my connection with the woods..." he answered his eyes drifting to Kai studying his body language as he spoke. "I suppose someone could have introduced such magic to this world, however it was something that I stumbled upon." The elf explained as he pulled a card from his pocket and placed it onto the table. "I found this card 10 years ago and I began to study its magical properties of the rune. That was how I discovered this void like magic." He explained. <br>
<br>
The host raised an eyebrow as they inquired the relationship between him and the fairy. He looked down at the roses on the mask and then back at her recalling the deceitful way he had acquired her company. Fairy's were quite gullible by nature, dark fairies less so, given that they were so rarer. He had happened upon her when she was near death. He wasn't always bad they were doing fine together when he found the card he grew fearful of the magic and of her connection with it. That was when he gouged out her eyes and placed them into the roses. If she ever wanted them back she would have to stay by his side until he said so. She was given a decorative mask to hide the mutilation done to her face and to keep people from freaking out. <br>
<br>
Skye looked down as they brought it up after all their tight knit bond wasn't by choice. She gave a nervous laughter while idly adjusting her mask. "Master Kaos happened upon me when I was on the brink of death... I was attacked when a human child tried to capture me and injured my wing..." She explained quietly leaving out the rest of  the gory details. "I owe him my life." she added a hint of implication that it was something she didn't really desire for herself. <br>
<br>
"aw... you have a point." Kaos chimed in looking at Kai bringing the conversation back to the present. "Using forbidden magic is most certainly a crime. I am exiled due to my pursuit for knowledge. However, what they deem forbidden is something they do not understand. Why forbid something you can't understand? Perhaps if they had better knowledge and gave a proper reason for it being forbidden, then I'd consider. However to ban the pursuit of knowledge is naive and ignorant, and will ultimately lead to destruction of one's society." He spoke a bit more passionately now. "Tell me Keanu and Kai... do you fear the unknown? Or do you push forward to discover and experiment?" he asked takin into consideration their little spat and the words spoken. He rather not point out things that they spoke about their home less they realize they were unintentionally feeding him information.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">“Meat?’ Kai connected the food in her hand with the word, nodding twice. The stench of it struck them as though it once belonged to a living corpse, now being feasted at another’s hands. Perhaps the relation between organism and voidling indulgences weren’t too far fetched after all. They bit back another temptation to chime in, noting how invested Keanu was in the conversation as the elf spoke.<br>
<br>
“Very true. But humans have been known to impose their knowledge onto others. Elves, I would believe, are more reserved in that respect.” Keanu met the elf’s eyes. “That’s the primary difference between humans and elfs, I’d think, is that at least your kind understands that not everyone has to follow the same rules. Sure humans mean well by it, but sometimes not everyone benefits from the same thing.”<br>
<br>
The elf admitted his connections to the woods shortly before placing a card to the table. Kai physically winced at its presence. Whether it was from its presence alone or the runes marked on the card they could have recognized, it wasn’t entirely clear. It took a few minutes for them to regain composure again, slowly losing the elascity of being able to bounce back from all the surprises. Kaos was good. He was slick and very well thought out. It’s been a while since the void creature had come across someone as equally calculating. So long, dare they admit, they were almost out of practice. He possessed forest connections and void magic -- this couldn’t be good at all.<br>
<br>
“A human child attacked you?” Kai inquired. Her statement fed into Keanu’s earlier belief about humans and their invasive nature. The fairy adjusted her mask at the current topic of choice. Something about Kaos finding her in a state of vulnerability and eventually leading upto what appeared to be some sort of servitude didn’t sit well with the ‘elder’. A life of debt sounded like no life at all. Between the phoenix and the fairy’s relation to the elf, it seemed as though any connection with him eventually ended up in a sort of subordination. Should their interactions with Kaos continue….<br>
<br>
Their ears perked at the question without their realizing. Keanu’s voice broke once more across the table, reaching for some fruit, idly pushing the meat away with the back of their hand. “I agree 100 percent, Mister Kaos.” They turned their head towards their sibling. “Perhaps one of these days you and Sibling could discuss the benefits of learning forbidden magic. In exchange, we could offer stories of forbidden weapons we have discovered..--”<br>
<br>
“Fearing the unknown?” Kai suppressed a choke. They brought their hand under their chin. Their fingertips wavering in the air as a black tar substance found itself across Keanu’s mouth, hardening into what seemed to be a mix of tape and goo.<br>
<br>
What a question. On one hand, it was clear. The ‘elder’ feared close to nothing with the exception of death itself. On the other, there was far too much trickling through the cracks of the wall Kai so desperately fought to maintain for themself and their Sibling. Lying would have been an obvious choice, but the elf would have seen right through it. Telling the truth was obvious in its consequential nature, and avoiding it… well. It very closely had similar effects as Lying.<br>
<br>
“Perhaps we do,” Kai finally admitted vaguely. “There’s much to explore and even more to hide from. Some would be wise to take the proper precautions should they wish to continue existing.”</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Just as the elf suspected Kai recognized the card or perhaps what was on the card, either way he got the response he was looking for as he placed it back into his pocket. "I've been searching for the one who left the card... Perhaps you and I could search together, and we both could find answers we seek." he said rather thoughtfully while the enthusiasm of the other sibling caught the elf's attention. <i>forbidden weapons</i> caught the elf's attention as his eyed focused on Keanu narrowing ever so slightly as a black substance appeared over their face. So Kai was the one in charge and Kaos looked back over just in time to see the other waving his fingers. <br>
<br>
"Well humans believe fairies to be of good luck... so many try to capture them for their own use." Skye spoke to Keanu not at all paying as much attention to the body language happening all around. <br>
<br>
The elf didn't want to push the subject after all where Keanu was opened Kai countered it, so his best bet would be to either pit them against each other or get Keanu alone. He didn't see either of those options happening very quickly, however he had patience. Experiments and theorizing took time and patience one the elf learned a long time ago. He could wait for the right time to get exactly what he wanted. <br>
<br>
"ah yes we are in fact in agreement there. caution is undoubtedly often mistaken as fear." He said noted with a rather sly grin as he picked up his cup of mead taking a rather long sip. "So how about it? Why don't you stay awhile... and we can search for the owner of this card? After all it seems they would be up to no good." The elf offered  "I can prepare a guest room for you and Keanu... if you do not have any other lodging. It would be an honor." The elf said his voice smooth and velvety. <br>
<br>
The fairy looked at Kaos the second he spoke inquiring them to stay. She was nervous for the safety of the two intruders as she looked between Keanu and Kai. "But Master Kaos… I don't think..." The fairy fell silent when his hand subtly touched the rose on his mask squeezing it ever so slightly. The fairy noticeably winced and looked at Kai even though her eyes sockets were hallowed one could tell she held a look of concern.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Keanu clasped their fingers over their mouth, panic and even a little bit of humiliation quickly seeping into their expression. Unlike Kai, the ‘younger’ was more prone to wearing their emotions on their sleeve, entirely oblivious at the possibilities that masterminds could do with nonverbal communication. <br>
Their eyes creased around the edges into what could be translated as betrayal towards Kai. There was a silent but firm understanding between the two that under no circumstances would void magic be used against one another. It hasn’t been too long since their last talk over the ‘elder’s’ violation of said agreement.<br>
Despite the obscure nature of the substance, their fingers protruded through the tar in a holographic like fashion, but possessed the capability of controlling their ability to speak. They did, however, succumb to their suppressed state, not so much as nodding or shaking their head to answer the elf’s proposal. Kai made themself clear as the one pulling the reins in this situation; and many others.<br>
<br>
Kai eased, as if their control over their sibling had granted them some sort of relief on the situation. “Searching for the owner of the card? Why would you do that? Surely someone who has created a object of such power without so much as a trance would want to be left alone.”<br>
<br>
Keanu’s expression softened when addressed by the fairy, nodding twice. Questions about her  and her species stirred in their mind. Questions that were quickly silenced both in a figurative and literal sense. They placed their hand down once more onto the table, arising from their seat. Translucent transcriptions faintly appeared on their jaw and neck, as if reacting to the magic being used. Pale white fingertips curled into the wood, their shoulders arched. They wanted to excuse themself but had no way of doing so politely. <br>
The void creature looked once at Skye, Senka and Kaos, nodding apologetically once for their abrupt decision and quickly made their way toward the very doors they were escorted through.<br>
<br>
“How could you be so sure you’re not being used for the same purpose here, Miss Skye?” Kai continued on, giving Keanu only a split second of their attention. “It seems as though your master here has a bit of a hoarding tendency.” At least, so they could conclude from their earlier observation about the phoenix and now the fairy’s latest statement about serving the elf. “I’m afraid I’ll have to decline your offer, Mister Kaos, thus concluding our interactions and the wonderful dinner. It’s been an evening, but my sibling and I really must be going.” Their eyes shifted to Senka for a moment, silently offering for her to come with them. Of course, if now wasn’t a good time, they’d be more than happy to come for them after.<br>
Their eyebrows knitted at Skye’s trailed statement, meeting her eyes. The ‘elder’s’ fingers twitched once, as if searching for an opportunity to continue demonstrating their magic. As soon as the urge came, it went, instead opting for keeping their gaze on Kaos. Unlike their sibling, Kai was able to put two and two together.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Kaos thought it odd that Kai seemed disinterested in finding the owner of the card after expressing interest on how such magic came to be to this world. Still it was no matter is attempted to implore them to stay had come to an end and he understood that it wouldn't be long after before the two would request to make their leave. He had options as he pondered the idea of sating his curiosity of such weapons that Keanu had mentioned and of course where they were actually from. Would they come back with trouble? Was it all that wise to let them go without so much of a scratch. His thoughts were interrupted by Keanu standing up and heading towards the exit with the an apologetic look. It was now or never. <br>
<br>
"It must be hard for you young Keanu... to live in Kai's shadow constantly? Can you even speak your mind without the judgement of your sibling?" The questions could have been innocent if it wasn't so accusing. If Kai accused him then he could turn the tables and do the same after watching their interaction with one another. "It reminds me when I was an apprentice constantly seeking the approval of my master... only leading to disappointment. There is freedom in knowledge." He let his words leave his lips as Keanu walked to the doors. <br>
<br>
His attention then looked to Kai who addressed his fairy. "You should work on your manners." Kaos spoke calmly as he pushed his chair out from the table and stood up. "Well perhaps we will meet again." He said with a small bow. He was going to leave his words to Keanu letting it grip their mind if it all worked out it would pit the two against each other. <br>
<br>
"Skye… please show our guests to the door while I clean up here." He said softly. <br>
<br>
"Yes Master." she said answered gesturing Kai to follow her to the door that Keanu had exit through to get to the stairs. <br>
<br>
Senka looked at Kaos and t hen at Kai not wanting him to leave as she feared what the elf would do to her when they were gone. Weren't they the reason he was being so civil to her in the first place? The phoenix looked down as she continued to pick at her meat however had lost her appetite.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">“Please refrain from getting involved between our familial politics, Mister Kaos.” Kai’s jaw locked at the comment. The elf was no saint himself. Yet here he was feeding the flame that was casted between the two. “They are safely under my care and teaching. Had it not been for our educational courses together, they wouldn’t know so much about the water that inhabits this planet. I have enriched their mind as we know it to this very moment.” They kept their gaze on Keanu who had stopped, listening to the elf’s ‘sympathy’. Kai wanted to say more but knew better.<br>
<br>
Had the younger not been physically silenced, they would have verbally inquired about the ‘master’ statement. He was an underling too? Was he taught everything he knows? Did he become strong? Their fingers closed into their fists. A black and purple hue surrounded their wrists and fingertips, much akin to Kai’s but with a transparency that took the form of the sickle shaped weapon from before. If only they weren’t in the presence of their host, there would have been on hell of an outbreak.<br>
<br>
“My manners?” Keanu heard Kai focusing their attention on the elf. “I’m not the one going around threatening others as if some sort of past time, Mister Kaos. If you were hoping to gain something out of this event, I’m sorry to be of an abrupt disappointment to your plans.” <br>
<br>
They nod, thanking Skye silently as they follow her, a silent huff finally escaping their lips. Once they too were out of the elf’s sight, they began to speak again. “I apologize for my Sibling’s outburst back there, Miss Skye. The dinner truly was lovely.” Promises of reprimanding could have been thrown left and right, but instead, Kai internally assured that Keanu would not so much as remember how to speak up in such an oblivious matter. Nothing that reeducation couldn’t solve.<br>
Speaking of re-education. Kai wondered of Senka’s safety being left alone with Kaos. Smooth commadries aside, it didn’t defeat the fact that by reading between the lines -- something Keanu failed to do constantly -- he saw her no less than a weaponized pet. Their voice lowered a bit more, addressing the fairy. “The girl back there. Will she be well?”</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Kai's reaction only pleased the elf as his eyes flicked between the two siblings. He was quite all too pleased with himself. "Farewell" Was his final word along with a gracious and over dramatic bow as he watched the two exit leaving him and the phoenix. <br>
<br>
"Are you finished eating?" He asked <br>
<br>
The phoenix was now just picking away at the meat not really interested in eating it anymore. She gave him a nod as she wiped her hands off on a napkin. <br>
<br>
"Very well... since you behaved so civilly I don't think there is use for a cage, so long as you can remain civil... I'm curious about the mark we share... perhaps we can even have it removed... hmm?" he said clearly with no intention of letting her go but giving her a slight flicker of hope would keep her from thinking of escaping. As if on queue the phoenix's face brightened and nodded "can I have my own room again?" she asked before looking down confused to why she had said again. After all she didn't remember ever having a room here before, did she? The elf only smiled and nodded "you may." he answered leaving her to her own guessing game. <br>
<br>
Skye lead the two to the front door and looked at Kai as he asked. A scowl expression fell on her face after all fairies were often the jealous type. Ever since the phoenix had been discovered the fairy had felt second rate. Wasn't she more powerful than any phoenix? Still here were two strangers yet again fascinated by the phoenix and even worried for her well being and for what? The only thing Senka had was a rune on her arm, it wasn't like her eyes were painfully torn from her sockets. Even with the mask on one could make out the glare she gave. "she'll be fine." she muttered her eyes would have rolled in her callused tone. <br>
<br>
"If you are smart you won't return to this place." she gave a soft warning. "My master is not one to be trifled with."</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Kai peered at the fairy, measuring out the bitterness in her tone. She warned for them to not return. “I cannot make any promises, unfortunately. Your master here is in violation of several alter-world codes. I’m sure you are well aware but void magic has been deemed forbidden by elves and humans alike for a reason. They are not without reason, despite what the nature of the conversation suggested.” Upon approaching the door, they turned, facing her. “If you are smart, you will come with us. Flee from this tree of horrors. I noticed your state of pain when the elf fussed with the mask. You’re bounded to it somehow, aren’t you? Nevermind, I can promise you you’ll never have to worry about him again.” The elder extended the palm of their hand for her to perch on. “Just come with us.”<br>
<br>
Keanu had made their way out far into the forest, still burning off their small tantrum; even moreso with the elf’s final words still stirring in their mind. Kai’s magic had worn off on the very condition that they were out of the line of casting sight, and it was no longer necessary. It had done its job.<br>
The magic from before disappeared from around their hands, deeming the act as something childish and impulsive in the heat of the moment. With their back to the tree-house and no more than 75 feet away from the property, the void creature flickered their wrist, a small scroll appearing in the palm of their hand. The scroll itself possessed runes very similar to the one that was found within the elf’s realm, the inscriptures design only slightly different.<br>
Their thumb traced over the center symbol of one of the runes, muttering something underbreath.<br>
Within seconds, a shadowy substance, separate from the tar material demonstrated before, flittered through the air. In its place was a female figure adorned in all black, a hoodie included. Her knees pressed into the soft ground in the form of a kneel, her head lowered.<br>
<br>
“Master Keanu, I have been summoned. To what do I owe this…” The silence from them was unusual. Normally with a sudden cast it was to use her ability to be summoned as some sort of immediate therapist rather than a weapon when compared to former masters. The shift in usage was a bit of a change, but not unwelcomed. She dare raise her head without any verbal or non-verbal cue alike, noting the state her summoner was in. Threads of grass tumbled off of her cloak as she rose cautiously as to not stir their authority, lavender orbs illuminating behind the hood’s shade.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Skye looked at Kai her expression softening. "He's not all bad... He really did save me from a child who would have killed me... we fairies are delicate you know. I didn't want to harm the child...I was naïve back then.." she sighed and looked towards the palm of his hand. Even the elf stolen her eyes she still had the ability of sight it was just not as clear more like a haze that she relied on her other senses to make up for the details she lacked. "you are just as observant as he is.." she noted and looked back towards the stairwell before moving in close to Kai. "It's more than being bound..." she whispered. "When he found that card and started looking into the void magic he began to change... he was chaotic in nature always but not so... dangerous as he is now.." she quietly explained while she reached up to her mask and pulled it off to reveal the two empty holes and scars of the trauma and encircles. "He grew paranoid and corrupt the more he discovered about the properties of the void... He thought I would leave him being his only companion. He stole my eyes and fused them to his mask." she whispered "I cannot go with you if I hope to one day gain them back." <br>
<br>
The shadows came out and cleaned up the place settings while Kaos lead Senka to a private room that was still upstairs. "is it to your liking?" he asked "warm enough?" Senka looked around the quaint room and nodded "it's a tad chilly." she spoke cautiously. She watched the elf gesture to the fireplace and waited. This had to be a test she thought as she lit a fireball in her hand and threw it onto the wood smiling at the familiar cackling sound. The flames black for a moment before turning orange. <i>how interesting</i> the elf thought before he turned and shut her in locking  the door not wanting the phoenix to get the idea of freely being able to wander about the house.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">“He imprisoned not one but two organic species,” Kai argued quietly, their eyes training to fixate on someone so small. Organic specimen for them was a generic term for anyone and anything that wasn’t made of shadow or pure nothingness. “Yes, he saved you. But if he truly were a good man, he would have saved you and left you be.” Their expression firmed. So the void magic was affecting him, even without his realizing. Instability, paranoia, deceit…. those were common symptoms of organisms who were handling magic they did not understand. <br>
Unlike elemental magic or witchcraft, void magic wasn’t something you could engross yourself in and hope to come out the same. Even those who were born in the Neverworld or any other void realm were trained to control themselves as to not let the mass infinite power engross them. <br>
Kai nodded at the observation. “One of us has to be. My Sibling is more of the action person while I ensure they are well.” Corners of their mouth twitched lightly at the admittance. She could very easily go and spout this to the elf once the conversation was over if she so desired. But as far as they were concerned, as soon as they were finished here, they were off to another town to plot getting the fairy and phoenix to come join them. <br>
The twitches around their mouth became more prominent at the physical trauma, briefly looking over her shoulder as if to glare at the elf from the distance.  “Perhaps there are other ways. I would not be offering if I did not believe in an alternative. I cannot trust you will ever gain them back, however.<br>
<br>
<br>
Keanu swiped the back of their hand at some tears. It was rare for them to cry lest the emotions were at its peak. They didn’t seem to mind at the other’s initiative to rise without being commanded to do so. The void being took a few seconds to recollect themself before swallowing whatever they were feeling in the moment.<br>
“The card,” they said slowly, lifting their head to look in the female’s direction. “The card Sibling has been looking for for the past 72 months. We’ve found it. Somehow it’s found itself on this dimension. I want to retrieve it from the household behind me.”<br>
“Forgive my skeptism,” the female spoke slowly, “but are you referring to the tree-house just feet away from the two of us?” She knew very well the answer, Keanu giving her a slight look that confirmed it. “I wouldn’t recommend going in there. I detect foreign, hostile energy emitting from within. A potent mixture of magic-”<br>
“I know. I was just in there,” Keanu sighed sharply. They turned their head, watching the ongoing conversation between Skye and Kai. “I ask that you come with me. Assassin with assassin. We will hide out until the owner of the card begins preparing for nightfall, and then we will strike, grab the card and be gone before dawn.”</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Skye listened carefully and was surprised the little intel he was giving her it wasn't so wise after all. "I'm sorry I cannot..." she whispered placing the mask once again over her eyes "I fear the elf would grow mad with rage and seek to kill you and I." she whispered leaving Keanu out of it sensing the elf's interest in the other. "Please leave..." she whispered raising her arm out and with a gentle push of magic, that left small traces of her own fairy magic on his clothing, shoved him out of the house and closed the door before flying up to her open cage used as a makeshift nook. <br>
<br>
"Skye… are they gone?" Kaos asked stepping through the door standing at the top of the stairwell. <br>
<br>
"Yes master both have left." she said quietly. <br>
<br>
"did you leave a tracker?" The elf asked staring dead set on the fairy. <br>
<br>
Skye swallowed hard and looked down ashamed by her deed as she quietly nodded. She only hoped for their safety now. <br>
<br>
"You've done well my little fairy." Kaos said approvingly before heading back through the door and to his room as he prepared for bed. The day certainly hadn't gone how he had planned but it was a pleasant twist of events. <i>what peculiar creatures</i> he thought to himself. He figured they would meet again from the sound of how disapproving Kai had been. However his focus would be on Keanu and pitting them against their sibling. <br>
<br>
He placed his mask in a chest locking it with an elven magic that would be rather complex to crack along with a bit of void magic. The elf chimed enjoying the thrill of playing with such powerful magic that he thought could never exist. Patting the chest lightly he climbed into his bed closing his eyes to rest. while the shadows that served the food roamed around to guard their master while he slept and to keep his two prisoners from ever hoping to escape.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">“Miss Skye..? Skye..!” Kai stumbled backwards, finding themself with the door swung shut before their very eyes. There was an urge to internally reprimand themself for the small but vital information sacrificed, knowing it was in vain. Placing a hand to the door once, they closed their eyes, gathering their bearings. <br>
<br>
After a few more minutes of recollection, they turn to rejoin Keanu and the mysterious female, adjusting the collar of their clothing. <br>
<br>
“Sibling. I see you’ve brought Miss Aonxi out.” Kai noted matter-of-factly. The female that was spoken about was one of the many wild cards they possessed in times of need. Contracts, humans would know them as, for souls. Though with the runes imbedded into the medium used for summoning, it rewired conditions a little bit, turning them no less than weaponized slaves.<br>
<br>
Slaves, at least, to the elder. Keanu had proven to have other agendas in the form of companionship which concerned the void creature.<br>
<br>
“Well, yes. She and I were going to go back in and retrieve something. I believe I forgot something in there, Sibling. I didn’t want to burden you by asking so I..brought her along.”<br>
<br>
“According to Master Keanu, it seems there is an object you desire within?” The hooded female, otherwise addressed as Aonxi, confirmed quietly. Her voice wavered in and out, making it difficult for most eavesdroppers to listen in without some sort of tool of magic. “It would be an honor to retrieve something of such high caliber before your highnesses.”<br>
<br>
Kai remained silent at the observations. So they did recognize the card after all. A part of them wished that - like most things else - they’d bat away the identity of the enchanted item and not recognize it. Instead, it was the direct opposite. <br>
<br>
Without another word, the ‘elder’ brought their arms around the two others, motioning to the village up ahead. Once they were confident they were far enough, they spoke minimally about the topic, if at all. “We have much to discuss. For now, let us rest and begin our day for tomorrow.”<br>
<br>
Just up ahead was a small village with the basic necessities. A bar, an inn, shops of a few variety and a town plaza. The area itself seemed to be filled with passing travelers and locals alike, far much calmer if not safer than the tree of misfits that they just came from.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">The further the twins moved away from the cursed tree the lighter the air seemed to be. This proved true as they came to the small village where children ran around laughing and playing women gossiped with one another in the marketplace. The bar was no different although not completely lively yet people were starting to stroll inside. The children stopped in their play in seeing the new comers in the village and how strange they seemed. However children's attention spam is so few that he person coming behind the trio stole the attention "Ireth!" The name chimed out as a few of the kids ran past and over to the incoming elf as she strode in. <br>
<br>
Ireth Amadil was a woodland elf well known for helping establish the small village as a safety for travelers and those who didn't want to particular live under the rule of a kingdom. While still in good relations to the human kingdom the village technically fell under jurisdiction of the elves but it was far enough away from their actual home, although no one knew where exactly that was. The elf traveled all across the lands in search of adventure at least that was what everyone thought. The elf had a smile as bright as the sun as the children came around to greet her. Of course the only reason she received such a welcome from them was due to the presents she always brought back. <br>
<br>
"All right... settle down." The elf said kneeling down to be eye level with them as she swung her back around to reach inside and pulled out what looked to be tiny wooden puppet dragons. "hold our her your finger." she explained and put one on each of the children's index finger. "they're called finger puppets." she explained to them and smiled seeing how easily amused they were as they looked them over. "Thank you!" they chimed before running off and playing. <br>
<br>
Green eyes watched the children at play for a moment before slowly standing up and turning her attention to the bar where she had an old friend waiting as she kept her eyes pealed for one little girl in particular. She always had a special present for this child. She headed towards the bar noticing the three newcomers who seemed a little off and their aura was... Ireth paused in her step just behind them her hand on the hilt of her short sword as she looked over the trio who's aura reminded her of a particular corrupted elf. She wondered if this was another one of his schemes as a scowl fell over her face. Still she had no right to cause a scene where it wasn't warranted but the safety of the people was most important.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">As the twins moved further away from the cursed tree, the more relaxed they seemed to be. Aonxi followed closely behind as a sign of respect to her master, knees bent at the ready.<br>
<br>
Sensations of innocent children laughing and playing led the three to look at one another, a mutual smile tugging at their cheeks. A small village. Who would’ve known? Women gossiping with one another pinched Kai’s nerves a little bit but was quick to let it go. Secrecy was something they were never a fan of, save that they were the ones engaging in it for the benefit of others.<br>
<br>
“Sibling, the energy is different,” Keanu silently agreed with Kai’s observations. “I can’t quite explain it.” Their smile grew, as though a child exploring the outdoors for the first time. In a way, it was not too far from the truth. Aside from the Neverworld and the cursed tree home, the void deity has never seen the outside world. Their sole exposure has been through videos, images and textbooks but never through direct contact.<br>
<br>
“They appear comfortable, master.” Aonxi commented, stopping once the twins do. The three stood at the cusp that divided the forest from the village. Her eyes met with the wood elf’s but made no indication to arouse either of their attentions’ for the time being. Kai demonstrated awareness by slowing their walk, an arm extended in front of Keanu as if stopping a child from crossing the street too soon.<br>
<br>
“Not all of them,” Kai turned their head slightly towards the enslaved female. They turn back to silently greet the elf with a nod. Elves. It was always elves with this place.<br>
<br>
The door to the bar before Ireth pushed open slightly. Behind it, a smaller being attempted to hold the weight of the entryway. She had been marking down the day of Ireth’s routine return to the very second. In contrast to the jellyfish-like parasite that sat atop her head and over her eyes, the child smiled in the wood elf’s direction. “Miss Amadil, you’ve returned,” she rasped silently. She was hoisted up by the surrounding tentacles that draped from the parasite, her body and feet now suspended to meet the woodelf’s height. “Mister Vytri was telling me you wouldn’t...not for a while, anyways. He probably thought you were dead.”<br>
<br>
“Not dead,” a voice protested through the cracked door, “just gone for a long long time.”<br>
<br>
“That’s precisely what you tell a child to indicate someone’s passed,” the child pushed back with a turn of her head. “You already did that with Mister Fluffles.”<br>
<br>
“Gerbil was gonna die anyway,” the eloquently gruff voice concluded, resuming to place his attention on the unpolished mug. He peered back up once more to Ireth, placing the mug down to grab a chilled glass from a bucket of iced containers. He proceeded to pour a honey substance from a pitcher into the prepared cup. “Well? Whaddya waitin’ for, kid? C’mon’in. Mead’s not gonna drink itself.”</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Ireth's eyes met Kai's as he acknowledged her and nodded to her. It was the subtle interaction that made her relax as she released the hilt of her sword and gave a light smile back to him before her eyes flickered to the door and then to the small on opening it before raised to her height. For now she would keep an eye on the trio, but didn't see them making any harm as of yet. <br>
<br>
"It has been awhile... hasn't it?" She said with a smile as she reached in her back and pulled out a small decorative wooden box. "I brought back a present for you." she said softly handing it to the child. "Go on open it." she said with a wink. The box was made of cherry wood and had small fish carved around the outer edge and the middle there was a carving of a jelly fish. Inside the box were various small sea shells she had collected and made into a necklace. Even sounds of the ocean waves could be heard as though the elf had captured the sound of the waves inside the box. <br>
<br>
"Ah well I'm very much alive!" she said with a grin as she stepped in and found herself at her usual table where she put down her bag and took a seat accepting her favorite drink. "I've missed this... There is no mead quite like yours Vytri." She said with a smile. "Tell me anything interesting happen while I was away?" she asked.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">“A gift? For me?” Bachol extended her arms out to accept the gift. Despite the obstruction, she seemed to have a relative ease in being able to manuever her way around, visually. Once the present was placed into the palms of her hands, the child withdrew her arms to observe the box with a sense of awe. Small fingertips traced over the fish, avoiding the jellyfish in the middle as she opened the top part onto its hinges. A small gasp emitted from her, the only indication of overwhelmed joy being the shivering of her body as it swayed back and forth in its suspended state. “A necklace… and ..are those waves?” Her head tilted in Ireth’s direction, voice beginning to crack at the thought. She’s never been near the ocean. Supposedly there was an ongoing hostility between humans and sea-creatures which have led to people of her kind being dragged into the watery substance. Only a hero like Ireth could pass through such tricky terrain and survive. For the time being she was advised to stay far far far away from the ocean shore. “You remembered…”<br>
<br>
“Not with your stupid sense of adventuring, you won’t be for long,” Vytri cracked, sliding her the glass. Ireth praised his mead to which he continued his disposition with a touched chuckle. “Damn straight, there ain’t. Know why? Cause I don’t put any of that magical fairy dust crap into my food and drinks. Supposed to make customers like the stuff better for no good goddamned reason.” The drow paused for a moment, resuming his obsession with the unpolished mug earlier. “Nothin’ interestin, honestly. Same old same old. Invasions, protests, some centaurs ran through here like no one’s business. Village hid and followed the plan. For a mellow town, place’s damn good at playin’ possum.” He nodded his head in Bachol’s direction. “Gotta say kid here gave me a near heart attack. Decided to poke her head out and try to take them on.”<br>
<br>
“Only for a good cause,” she lowered her head, hyper focusing into the newfound gift. “One day we’ll get some formidable foes and then we’ll be sorry for lying around like a bunch of rocks.”</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Ireth beamed at Bachol pleased to see that she enjoyed her gift as she nodded a yes to her question. "Of course I remembered!" She said cheerfully as her attention went back to the drow "Is that your secret?" she giggled and rolled her eyes "I'm careful enough..." she huffed although this last adventure she had some close calls and wondered if she would make it out alive. <br>
<br>
"Centaurs... huh?" she whispered and shook her head "Bechol… you can't take on things like that... you're not strong enough." she said softly just as concerned and worried for the child. <br>
<br>
"Vytri… any word on the whereabouts of my br...." she paused and looked down her eyes narrowing at the table "of the corrupted elf?" she asked refusing to accept him as her bloodline. The two used to be so close until he had begun to experimenting with dark magic. It didn't get worse until he found a card with a foreign rune on it. Just like that he had changed forever it seemed. She knew he wasn't far but didn't know exactly where.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">“Not so much as a secret to some who had an ounce of decency,” Vytris finished the polish and exchanged the mug for a pipe as he continued on. His eyes crossed for a brief moment, splitting his focus to get a fire going into it. “Your bro? Haven’t seen ‘em.” The drow felt his jaw tense at his own lie, quietly reminding himself of a small promise he made while Ireth was gone to not defend her brother’s whereabouts; regardless if they now shared an evil background. It was only within his species’ nature to hide those that leaned more on the chaotic tendencies.<br>
<br>
Bachol’s voice cut into the conversation, granting the drow temporary but well needed internal relief. “You guys said I could take on the next one last time, and the time before that…” The tentacles rose her, as if to emphasize on her words. She ‘walked’ over to join the two, lowering herself into the seat next to Ireth with puffed cheeks in disappointment. “Besides, we couldn’t let you come back to a truly desolate village, Ms. Ireth.”</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Ireth nodded hiding her disappointment while she was glad that he hadn't come around the village in the likes of experimentation or something just as bad, she still wanted to find him and put an end to his treacherous ways. Memories flooded of their time together as they trained along side each other and he was the one she looked up to. Although Vytris opened her world many different types of magic and to even be more accepting to that which didn't seem good. Still nothing could quite prepare or for the betrayal of her brother or rather the maddening magic he involved himself with. Her brother was always different and rather eccentric in his ways compared to most elves and much to their disapproval. <br>
<br>
The elf's thoughts broke when her eyes shifted over to Bachol and smiled lightly "Ah, well I think this village does well for itself. We don't want  you getting hurt. Tell you what... why don't you go hunting with me." she said with a smile figuring that would cheer her spirits a little. <br>
<br>
"Oh... Vytris… what do you know of a trio that have aura akin to my the corrupted elf's?" she asked motioning towards the door. She still couldn't shake that feeling when she and Kai's eyes met. Who were they? What was their purpose? She needed to know if they had been there for long and if not how long would they be there and what business they had.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">The room fell silent, allowing Ireth to process her emotions. For a moment, Bachol’s fiesty personality simmered down. Whether it was to match the elf’s current state or from losing too much blood again, it was a bit difficult to tell. There was a sort of mutality that went on between herself and ‘jelly’, the parasite she’s affectionately come to call it. But there were times it took much more blood than she was capable of providing, which required her to take on more naps, rest and even pauses. She placed her hand on the bar to balance herself, her head lifting abruptly to hide on-going discomfort. <br>
<br>
“Hunting? With you? Really?” The child’s pain broke through into a small smile. Bachol loved the village as much as the next person but between the older population and the same humdrum routine, things got dull pretty quickly. Vytri offered to teach her a few magical spells but after hearing stories about that one elf that went awol due to darker magic it wasn’t worth the effort, let alone the risk.<br>
<br>
“Aura like..?” His eyebrows rose a little bit, turning his head toward the window to see the twins mingling with some ongoers and the cloaked female finding herself surrounded by a few of the children. So that explained the foul stench. To magic users, there was a distinct aura between ‘ordinary’ magic users, those that engaged in elemental arts and light magic; and ‘abnormal’ users, those who dabbled in necromancy and blood magic. <br>
<br>
Those two, however, had a different sensation about them altogether; save for the third that was beginning to develop the same aura like a creeping fungus. “Haven’t seen their faces around,” he admitted, “but like you said, they’ve got an aura similar to the corrupted elf’s. You’d think that type of aura comes once in a blue moon. Or, y’know, the kind that come out in the dead of night.” Sounds of the cabinets opening, then slamming could be heard on his end as he retrieved a stave with a priceless gem at the very end of it. “Can’t say I’m willing to sit around and risk more people being corrupted, however. Howddya two feel about stirring up a little bit of fun?”</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Whether it be an elf's intuition or maybe just motherly instincts the elf picked up on the change in Bachol. "Yes with me... but get some rest first." she said with a knowing look about her. She didn't want the girl to push too hard. After all whatever that thing was that attached itself to her sometimes seemed to take a lot out of her. <br>
<br>
Her attention focused back on the barkeep before looking out the window her eyes narrowing at them. "they don't seem to be up to anything." she said looking towards him and rolled her eyes seeing the stave. "You mean stirring up trouble." she said standing up "I'm curious of them... they don't seem from around here. I'd rather see if we can peaceful speak with them rather than stir up <i>fun</i> as you call it." she said walking to the door. Not waiting to see if he would follow she walked over to where she saw the twins in the window. <br>
<br>
"Excuse me." she said her voice was soft but her eyes showed something entirely different than just being polite. "Who exactly are you, and what business do you have?" she asked rather quick to the point. Her stance though relaxed was still ready for anything should they end up attacking.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">“I’m okay, I can fight..! I’m ready to go with you!” Bachol insisted. It was like her to try and be tough in the face of pain. She wanted to impress Ireth, someone she saw as both a mentor and mother. Even if it physically killed her, it wouldn’t be likely for the child to allow the elf to see her disabled with pain. The hand on the table twitched once, her head lowering as the parasite deflating and inflating with visible contentedness at her expense. Her breath hitched, fingers curling into the wood, fighting to regain what she thought of as composure.<br>
<br>
“The corrupted elf wasn’t up to anything either at first. No one in their right mind is going to outly state their intentions. I say we take care of them before we regret it. Talking to them will give them information AND time to stall.” Vytri watched as she made her way to the window, keeping his stave out of sight but at the ready in case his suspicions were confirmed.<br>
<br>
Upon being addressed, Kai was the first to calmly react, turning their head lightly. They had been speaking with their twin and Aonxi about future travel plans. Confirming that it was in fact they that was being spoken to, the ‘elder’ turned, their position protective of Keanu’s wellbeing.<br>
<br>
“Sibling, is the pretty elf speaking to us?” Keanu inquired, oblivious to the non-verbal cues.<br>
<br>
“It would seem so,” Aonxi chittered quietly, despite not being the one addressed. “She seems peaceful. May I suggest approaching this diplomatically?” Her question was now towards Kai’s shoulders, knowing she might as well called the pot black. It was more to laminate the option as the best approach, rather than giving a new idea.<br>
<br>
Kai ignored the two to answer the elf’s question. Keanu’s reaction was predictable to them, and Aonxi was only providing them information they already knew. Still, it was good to know she had a good head on her shoulders. It would come in handy later. The presumed leader of the three spoke out of formality, their words holding no more emotional weight than average small talk. “Good days, Miss. Excuse our disturbance, we were simply passing through from the twisted woods.” They gestured with an open hand from the direction from whence they came. “I am Kai, and this is my sibling Keanu, and our bondservant, Aonxi.”</div>
