(Warrior + Martyr) Mutual Hatred

[Lady Within]

:: A lone Roc, dots the skyline, heading to an area where no other bird flies... The area is remote, a feeling of unease would strike those of lesser ilk that hit the ground in a burst of black and white feathers that scattered on the winds, drifting into nothingness all around her svelte form. She knew she was close, not within the bounds but still, close enough for the Martyr to feel her she would think, "Martyr!..." Warrior called out in her strong, commanding voice, "I come to speak, no more, lest that is your choice!" ::

The Martyr had been in an extremely foul mood as of late. Many had chosen to steer clear of her rage and she had almost unsuspected any visitors coming her way. Almost. As The Warrior approached her lands she could sense and feel the other Cursed God's presence. At first she thought of ignoring the Warrior. How easy it would be. But something, a twinge of curiosity, caused the dragon to spread her large wings and take flight.

Within no time the dragon landed on her feet some distance from the Warrior. She was not foolhardy nor willing to see if this was a trap close up. "State your business."

::She'd see her coming, the impressive span of her wings. It brought a smile to her crimson lips. The Warrior did not know of any reason for the Cursed God to be in a foul mood, though she could tell that she was. The tension of her, the unconcealed malice within her eyes. Though she said nothing of it...She just got right to the point.. "My purpose this day is to speak with you of our common foe and the possibilities of a -complete- Cursed God united front to divide and conquer them." she would allow the other to consider her words and imagine the destruction such a thing could wrought That, and she could admire her, knowing the other would never return such a thing, Warrior could not help but be reminded of just how impressive the Martyr was to her eyes. ::

So it was an alliance she sought? Against who? The Martyr quirked a brow at the mention of it and crossed her arms. "Who is this foe that causes such a pain in your side?" A faint smirk tugged at her lips. She had an idea. A vague idea but one none the less. It was either Tyche who had found out a way to alter their curse or it was the god who currently held the most power - Antarmurr'ss. Either was enough to make a Cursed God take action. But it surprised Martyr that it was so soon.

:: The Warrior turned her head, to take in the sights about the clearing where they met, running fingers back through pale strands she'd give a little sigh, "Does it truly matter whom it is that I shall hone my blade upon in battle.... an Old God, yes...." Her eyes shifting to Martyr with a frown, "This place is not as secure at I would like, as well, nearly shouting to your across a field does not make this the most private of conversations... I would rather keep the details out of it.... though I will tell you this: I came across some private information on one of Them that is too valuable to ignore... So, now is the time to strike, before it is the situation is rectified." Smiling softly at Martyr, "another thing though, that is common knowledge... Their division and in-wars make them weak... I plan to exploit their foolish pride, not just one... but all." she'd motion to Martyr, "but, there is something I desire to show them, without you, it would be impossible..... Could you imagine, the terror, the despair in They and their followers, if we can manage, what they cannot? Unity in our hatred of them... as they have hated us, thus it shall too be the downfall of Them." ::

A smirk crossed the Martyr's lips as she slowly approached The Warrior. "While it seems promising... I refuse to work along side that vile thing called Mastermind." She unfolded her arms and shrugged. "I will work alone if I choose to assist. And the if remains unanswered." There were many pros yet also many cons to deciding to assist in this war. The Martyr had a small following. She had just lost two followers. The Defender is currently missing and has not really communicated with her since their reawakening - which troubled her heart to be honest. Still she could push all that aside and assist. Yet was it truly going to be the grand battle the Warrior envisioned?

::This time she'd have a hearty sigh to give at the mention of Mastermind... "I cannot deny my own distaste at having to align myself with that...." she'd cut herself off and smile, "there is no love lost between us, that is for certain, though there is one thing that we do know..." she'd take a couple steps closer to Martyr as the other would approach, splaying her fingers out towards the distance where the old gods' lands lay... "our hatred of each other, dims to a flickering flame compared to the inferno that blazes within our hearts for those that deny us the title of true Gods and their pathetic sycophants!" her crimson eyes blazed with malice... "If not truly together, I would hope that all with Our blood will remember that the old gods as well as their children are the true enemy in this, and We can hold together, if not as united as I had envisioned, this is still, what I believe... will shake the very foundations of our world if all should go our way." She was not foolish enough to believe that victory was assured, but the odds were in their favor. Nor, did she say anything about Defender, believing that he would be along with Martyr, where it was he'd deemed to be. "I will speak with Mastermind, advise her to stay her hand, if you shall do the same... I would truly hate for my plans to be ruined over something that can be tended to at a later date." ::

A brief pause of silence as the Martyr thought of what to say next. "If we are able to overcome these Gods we have grown to hate... Then tell me, what is your next step? You seem to have a plan." Her tail swayed idly behind her. There was a lot left unsaid and that troubled the Martyr. While if they all banded together they held a stronger chance of winning, their numbers still paled in comparison to the Gods the Warrior sought to fight. "And you have realized that they outnumber your little gathering by..." She paused again to give affect. "Give or take a hundred."

:: She'd toss her head at the question, what next if her plan succeeded? Well... "My first and most hated enemy will always be the old gods, their minions... While it is difficult to defeat them, yes, they do have numbers... but many of them are poorly trained or live a life of carefree and foolish bliss... Our true threat lies within the old gods themselves... varying degrees of threats each, while each of -Us- is a force to be reckoned with..." she'd run a finger over her smiling lips, her eyes glittered dangerously, "The most pleasurable and satisfying to me, would be to destroy every-last-one of them, convert their followers into what we are... Though, killing them for now, does seem an impossible feat... so, I would be willing to grind them beneath my boot heel until we find a way to kill them... or make them like us...." shrugging her shoulders.... "not as alluring as the thoughts of their heads on pikes until the elements take them, but still, there is a certain poetic justice to it... They hate us, therefore make them like us... then they can mope and mourn for all eternity for all I care...." she'd look at Martyr, canting her head to the side slightly, "or do you mean, what do I plan to do with my current allies?...That depends.... if they want war with me, I would be more then happy to reciprocate, viciously. But if any would dare -before- the old gods are taken care of... I think there is nothing in this world that would keep me from doing whatever it took to punish whosoever deemed to try such a foolish thing." ::  

[acyfaust]

The Martyr shook her head. "If you succeed and overcome them or even convert them to our suffering... There will be nothing left to oppose except each other." She smirked a bit. "But that remains unseen."

Soon the dragon glanced around and seemed lost in her own thoughts. "If you are serious in your need for my aid... Come to me when I am needed. I am not outright joining your cause. Consider me no ally or enemy." The Martyr did not wish to join up with the others. But if they were in serious need of additional aid, the Martyr was allowing herself and her followers to be sought for protection. "We will protect those that wish to make the Cursed suffer... however... it is only when required. When you have tasted the sweet flavor of suffering yourself. Do you understand my terms?"

[[Basically the Martyr is saying she will join in the war if the Cursed are losing. Mostly to protect those who need protection, meaning her followers would step in for the battle weary as they are fresh and new to the fight, not beaten down upon a few times prior.]]

((I understand ^_^, I really would have liked to see her in action. I am a Martyr fangirl <3 if there is need, Warrior will send a message *nods*))

:: She would frown in disappointment at the other Goddess... "Suffering has been had upon our side already, but I know how it thrills you to know of the pain of others... just as the clashes of steel and the letting of blood gets my own going...." She'd give this sad little smile, "though, I had hoped to see your magnificent and violent form in action Martyr, I will not deny, that is part the reason for my visit..." she had thought... well, she was not one to expect things to go her way all the time, but, as she was, she had to be optimistic when it came to the planning of a battle... "Though, it is hard for me to grasp why you would pass up the opportunity to witness the suffering of our enemy first hand, the shock and no doubt outrage as well.... If you change your mind, send me a message, I do hope to see a change in your indifference.... Look at you, you were made for this.... your body screams that it is a deadly weapon.... it is a shame that it goes without use..." She would take a couple steps back, then throw herself high into the air, twisting into her Roc form to travel back to the camp ::
