SLITHERED HERE FROM EDEN  The mountains. She knew them well. She had roamed them for many years, long before she had a name, long before she had a conscious thought. She always came back. They were not a home- she had no concept of such a thing. They simply understood each other, the unyielding rock and the wild things and the simplicity of mere survival. She kept her distance from the human forts that ran through the area like a sickness, infecting the world with a thing called order. Peace. She spits on the word. They could not even keep it with themselves. She hunts. It is much more straightforward than how they eat in cities, on those idiotic and flimsy flat stones, cutting their meat with miniature swords. She tears into the bodies of animals with her claws and teeth, devouring them raw and bloody. Her red scales are slick with crimson. She drags the carcass of a fat deer through the brush and finds an outcropping of rock to set it on. She sometimes likes to cook her meat. Walking among humans has at least helped her learn to do it better. She still doesn't skin it, though. That was a pointless endeavor. The demon roasts her deer whole with flames that come spurting from between her fingertips. The air gets thick with smoke and saliva drips from her mouth, a cruel and terrible trap of teeth.

His surroundings are unfamiliar, but he welcomes them. The greens of grass and foliage, the gray of stone and tree bark—it surrounded him. There was life here, but not in the stifling way that there was life in the human’s cities. And he walked alone, careful about his footing. The songs of birds and the whispers of the trees rose above the sound of his footfall. But there was something else, a smell. He lifted his nose to the wind that carried it. Smoke was what he discovered. There was fire, and it was calling him closer to its source. Closer and closer he got until he could smell something else mingling with the smell of fire, cooking meat. He stood now in the clearing, staring on at the red skinned devil of a creature standing over a deer. She’s beautiful in the way that monsters were beautiful and frightening as well. Fintan was but a small phoenix with hallow bones and flimsy feathers. He could just as well be that deer. ASTRID |

SLITHERED HERE FROM EDEN Astrid heard something. It was a faint and harmless sound, like a bird stepping on a pile of leaves. What made her turn was the closeness of it. She was a monster, that was how she would explain her actions later. She moved with instinct, tearing herself from her deer with speed that one wouldn't expect from such an unwieldy looking beast. In one moment she was cooking, and in another held a phoenix by the neck. The flames of its feathers licked her knuckles harmlessly. It was so light it felt like nothing, and so fragile she could have broken it with a look. She had acted too soon. She did not need to kill this creature. It was young and harmless. She fixed it with a hard look before releasing it. "What is it that brings you here, fledgling?" She speaks down at the bird. She towers over it, and everything else. When she sniffs she smells the fire of the phoenix. The blaze that emanates from it is pure, untouched by demonic magic as hers are, but equally inexperienced. "You resemble something just hatched."Astrid remembered herself at that age. She had been uncontrollable, an unholy terror, but powerful all the same. MADE BY ★MEULK OF THQ |

In a flash of moment too fast for the eyes to percieve, she had caught him by his slender neck. He dangled in the vise of her grip. Air refused to push down his crushing windpipe, and he feared she would suffocate him. Yet, she released him just as suddenly as she seized him. The ground with its sticks, its decaying leaves and rich green new-growth, rushed up to catch him. Fintan coughed, gagging on the air that finally rushed down his injured windpipe. The flames still crackled over his skin and the feathers, his flames. "I was exploring." His voice came small and hoarse. It made him feel smaller and more vulnerable hearing it. "I didn't mean to intrude on your meal." He shook the flames from his feathers. "You could say that I am." ASTRID |

SLITHERED HERE FROM EDEN She felt a kind of pity for the creature. It did not behave like something bearing the name monster. Even as a child, she had clearly been monstrous. But then, from what little she knew about phoenixes, they had never been known to be particularly cruel or terrible things. No, in fact, they had a disposition that was nearly magnanimous. She looked at it for a long time, and the dirty thing known as sympathy found its way to her. "You are small and weak. Eat." She said simply, turning back to her deer. It was ready, so Astrid simply tore into it with her claws and extracted a slab of meat. "Why are you not flying like the rest of your kind?" If it was smart, the bird-child would have circled the smoke of the fire by air, rather than leave itself open to attack by her on the ground. It was curious, the way it had seemed to literally stumble into the clearing. Was it truly as newborn as it claimed to be? But it spoke well, and it may have been skinny but its feathers were almost mature. She found herself intrigued by her new... prey? That didn't seem right. She did not have a word for this kind of acquaintance. MADE BY ★MEULK OF THQ |

he had met very few monsters, at least those in the literal sense. the metaphoric monsters, however, he met plenty. not only monsters did they kill, but their own, the innocent and helpless. and if he had to compare to them, he could say with confidence he was nothing monstrous. yet, he couldn't be sure if it was just the nature of a phoenix or if he had become domestic in his captivity. fintan swelled with gratitude towards the frightening she-demon. he took the warm meat in his beak, carefully putting it down by his feet to tear strips off. "i can't fly," he admits shamefully. "or rather, i don't know how. i never had the chance to learn. human's robbed me of that by sticking me in a cage and keeping me as if i were their pet." ASTRID |

SLITHERED HERE FROM EDEN Her eyes narrowed at the very word human. They were so brave now, and so prideful. Taking monsters into captivity and holding them for whatever purpose. At times she navigated through her hatred of them to fascination, and now the pendulum swung back with a violence. They so dared. The small one is cloaked by his own failure as a member of his kind. A phoenix who cannot fly is not even deserving of the name. They have stolen his nature, and while she wished to avenge such a crime, she could not simply leave him thus. She gestured roughly at the sky. "Eat, and I will fix you."Perhaps she was being too optimistic. She was not a teacher, nor was she a nurturer. She was a killer, but her wings worked well enough. To be bound to the dirt and decay of the mountains was not a fate she particularly wished on the boy. It made him easy prey, both to men and beasts. "And then we will make them pay, perhaps." She added, a touch of conspiracy in her voice. MADE BY ★MEULK OF THQ |
