 Mine is a heart of carnelian, crimson as murder on a holy day.
Mine is a heart of corneal, the gnarled roots of a dogwood and the bursting of flowers.
I am the broken wax seal on my lover's letters.
I am the phoenix, the fiery sun, consuming and resuming myself.
I will what I will.
Mine is a heart of carnelian, blood red as the crest of a phoenix. Hymn of Sekhmet 01. Elysia's Post 02. Table Of Contents (There you are!) 03. Rules And Stuff 04. Permissions 05. The Story 06.

Day 1, Sunday January the eighth, 2006
My friends all knew how attached to living creatures I was, so it wasn't uncommon for one of them to come to me with an adoption opportunity or notification of a new shop opening. It was just another one of those times...
I was sitting in front of... Oh, it had to have been my older sister's cafe that afternoon. I always stop by on Fridays when I'm not working, though I'll have to admit Marshal's kept me on my toes these past couple of months. I swear the man has no life. But I've gone off topic. So I was sitting out front, enjoying a normal winter cocoa and a damn good book, when one of my good friends, Ky, spotted me and dashed up. She had this huge grin on her face, barely hidden by that stupid mask she insists on wearing. I couldn't help but smile as I put my book down and looked up as she plopped down in the intricately carved, dark wood seat across from me. Vamp really does have good taste in furniture.
But anyways... So Ky plopped down and huffed a bit.
"You look out of breath. Run all the way here?" I asked, smirking at her behind my mug.
"Laugh it up, an' I won't tell you my news," she grinned back, and I knew no matter how much I annoyed her, she'd tell me anyways. Well... Maybe not.
"So, what's the big news?" I asked, replacing the smirk with a genuine smile.
"Well, I found this awesome shop. It's a little time consuming, they need a lot of care, but I know you'll be interested," she replied after telling a passing waiter in a red scarf what she wanted. I leaned forward, no doubt that gleam only a proposition like this could bring into my eyes.
"Tell me more."
"Well, they're really fantastic creatures, with unique personalities," was all she said.
"Do you have a picture, then?" I asked. Ky never could describe things very well.
"They're having an adoption tomorrow night," she replied, handing me a flyer, address and all, "Why don't you drop by and see for yourself. But don't you go for the little happy one. I'll just have to kill you if you do."
And I knew she probably would.
We parted ways and I was rather intrigued by this shop, so I decided to drop by and window shop a bit. When I got there and poked my head in there wasn't a soul to be found.
"Well, no use in standing out in the cold," I told myself and stepped in. The decor was astoundingly beautiful and I had half a mind to redo my guest suite. There were statues and paintings and it was breathtaking. But mostly the paintings of the animals. Surely that couldn't be what they were "selling"! They were amazing, a perfect mixture of tamed pose and wild beauty. They looked positively breathtaking. I expected such a high price, and to find one like some of the other "children" (for I don't truly consider any of them pets) I'd adopted, I could have swooned right there. But then, no price was ever too much for them. Now I was determined. I hadn't even had time to look at what were up for adoption before I dashed out and sprinted through knee-deep snow back to my Barton apartment to count the money I had left in the safe.
"Perfect..."
Day 2, Friday, January the thirteenth, 2006
Okay, things have gotten weirder and weirder at home. This charm I received, er... bought, has brought along with it a bout of bad luck as well, I believe. In the past two days, I've fallen down the stairs twice, gotten my tail smashed by something unknown, bitten several times in my sleep by a sleepwalking dragon (That I don't blame on the charm... totally), and several other odd accidents. I'm not even accident-prone! I'm gonna stop by this house tonight and see if I can figure this out. It's damn confusing, I'll say that...
Day 3, Sunday, January the twenty-ninth, 2006
I have just signed the papers allowing my Dumyr, as it is to be called, to stay in Baarikmet, its home city. It was a difficult decision; on the one hand there was it being raised in my household and becoming used to the family, on the other was learning the ways of its people and growing among its own kind. I could not let that opportunity pass. My newest child will stay in Baarikmet, and I will start to make more time to be able to visit. The others have also agreed to send letters and little trinkets to make their presence in the Dumyr's life known as well.
Day 4, Tuesday, February the fourteenth, 2006
Today is Saint Valentine's Day in my culture. It is a day when lovers celebrate the feelings they have for one another. Or a day to remind those, like myself, who do not have a significant other that we have something so nice to look forward to when it comes along. It also marks the first day that I feel the sharp pang of missing Sekhmet. I mean, I haven't met her yet, but I have received pictures and am beginning to wish I was really a physical part of her life. I know, I'm just a fretful mother, "Is she warm enough? Is she afraid of the dark? Is she getting along with her mentor? Does she hate me...?"
That is the pressing one. What does she think of me, sending her to learn instead of taking her home with me? I can only hope that she understands, if not now, then eventually. I would probably be heart-broken if she hated me.
All I can do is hope she doesn't. The others miss her too, especially the little ones. They're wanting to play with her and won't take my no for an answer. xd And yet they won't take the time to write her letters... *Sighs* Children.
Day 5, Monday, March the sixth, 2006
The flowers have begun to bloom. They are so beautiful, all reds and golds, whites, and many blues and purples. I wish Sekhmet could see them. I wonder, can she see in colors? Coco can. And so can Nimue, Merlin, Arven, Rogue, Tucker, Sabine, Mei, Lana, Dash, Kivanti, Vortez, Holly, Cleo, Orchid, and Amora, so I think she might, too.
Coco is my lifeline this spring. He has become quite the little gardener and he helps me greatly by telling me which beds need the most tending and such. I think it has something to do with his psychic gift. I've given Merlin his own bed this year, in hopes of stopping him from raiding my lilies for bouquets. He's actually tending it well and has taken to bringing Nimue there for picnics on cool days. They make such a cute couple.
Amani has adjusted well to our large family. She's still shy, but she's made friends with the dogs Merry, Pippin, and Jacques. I watch with Amora and Coco from the kitchen as Pippin and Jacques, the younger two, chase my little lioness around the yard.
I tried to take a group picture for Sekhmet to have, but Larry and Lance cannot sit still for more than two minutes and Arven has become more and more reclusive. I wonder if she's hiding something from me. She's been gone from Kirit for much too long, so maybe she is pining for him. God, I hope not. She's one of my first children and I couldn't bear for that ray of sunshine to fade.
So of the children have written letters to Sekhmet, though I'm not allowed to read them. I'll send them just as soon as I can.

She's quiet when she wants to be and wants to be treated like an adult, even though she's not. She's easily angered, however she does her best to bottle it up instead of lashing out and lowering what little respect she might have gained. She doesn't like othersvery much and chooses to confide in a mask she seems to relate to instead of another living being.

Arguing, the mean-looking mask in Kanesakht's hall, her Mommy
Dislikes
Pretty much everything, being called "Little", getting grabbed by her scruff, stupid rules, people who don't make sense, crowds
Quote
"Kanesakht-teph Sekhmet, you have passed your test. You have proven you possess the ability to look past outer differences and actions to the justice at the root of the matter and your duty to others. While you possess a burning flame, a desire to be strong, you are beginning to learn how to temper that flame." Kanesakht, after the test of the growing ritual
Named after Sekhmet, Egyptian goddess of war. She was depicted as a woman with the head of a lioness.

 AubriannaShe was a very nice person. Sadly, I havn't had the time to speak with her since our first meeting, but I got a very good impression of her. I hope we can have tea or something again sometime and hopefully she can help me schedule a time when I can visit Sekhmet.Nashrome & VethelkarI haven't met them Farlest & Mirrao I haven't met them Kytora & Hecate One of my close friends, Ky introduced me to the Dumyr shop. I thank her greatly for this and made her Sekhmet's Godmother. I've yet to heet her little ball of joy, however I can imagine what mischief she might get into.Joop & Antediluvian I haven't met them Trintika & Laima Kat & TarkHakim Reeshie My mother. I've never met her, but she sent me a picture of her and all of what she calls my brothers and sisters. I wish I could meet her, but she's sent me letters for when I can read them.MaggieKayaI haven't met her KalenaI haven't met her abhiSakta I haven't met her Akhetnnami & ShandarAkhetnnami brought me to Kane. I didn't get to know her, though.
Shandar's kinda like me, I think. He seemed... as little liking of our interaction as I did when he, Jahi, and I were above Marseth's shop.KanesakhtMy mentor. I guess I don't really like him, but he's okay. I don't like it that he sometimes makes me feel inferior and I KNOW he does things just to push my buttons. But I respect him and stay out of his way.Hanukhemetu & Rhiket & MagdaleneI met Hanu. He seems a little like a friend to Kane. I don't really know, though. He's nice and seems like he wanted me to like him. I guess that's okay, though I'm not sure I really want any friends. Maybe.
I haven't met his apprentices or wife. He came to visit Kane and me by himself. Marseth & JahiI met Marseth when Kane and I were shopping. I really don't like her. She's rude and funny looking and wears these big, long robes that keep her from flying. We were given wings for a reason!
I met Jahi the other day. He seemed... Kittenish, insecure. Well, he was a kitten, but... Nevermind. He's not really "my type". He'd probably bug me.Briseatn & MorcadesI haven't met them Enherumh I haven't met her ElethertaShe's okay. A little mysterious and she likes to talk over my head, but I kinda think she was doing that because Kane was, too. They didn't want to tell me about my first ritual because my decision needed to be an honest one.AldrasathI don't mind him. He's old, but that could make him wise. And he thinks highly of Kane. I wonder why.

Siblings
Nimue:She's sweetheart, she has been since day one, almost a whole year ago. She likes swinging and lying on her favorite tree branch with her favorite person, Merlin. She loves him to death and it's hard to find one without the other.
Merlin: He used to be somewhat of a troublemaker, but Nimue fixed that. Or, she tried at least. The most trouble Merlin gets in now is tearing up the flowerbeds in search of the prettiest flower to give to his darling Nimue. He's learning a bit of magic, as his name suggests, but mostly he uses it to entertain Nimue. They do make a cute couple.
Arven:
Rogue:
Orchid: She is a very mature member of the household and is often looked towards for advice or help. She doesn't mind, of course, she likes to know that they appreciate her. She's a gentle soul and likes nothing more than walking through the gardens and singing. But she'd never sing in front of someone unless she really liked them. She grew up watching and listening to the BBC, so she has gotten into the habit of speaking with a strong British accent.
Vortex:
Holly:
Coco: He's got an open mind and can open everyone else's as well! No thought is safe from this little mind reader! Just kidding. He's a very quiet little guy and is more content to curl up in someone's lap on a cool night. He's very helpful in translating what some of the others are saying, even though he most of the time messes up on what he's translating.
Mei: She lived a charmed life when she was younger in the wild, she had good parents, lots of friends, and her best friend, a little male named Krad. However, Krad decided to go off exploring the land and everything went downhill from there. Her friends traveled away to find homes of their own once they had gotten older, an unusually long, cold winter killed her mother then a large predator killed her father. She withdrew. She became distant and spent most of her time grooming herself alone a secluded little clearing.
Then one day while doing just that, Krad returned and found her. She hasn't left his side since.
Amora: Prone to speaking straight from her heart, she is the embodiment of love. She sometimes speaks a little too much and her mouth often runs away with her, but one can't help but love her nonetheless. She can't stand fighting and tries her best to avoid it. Sometimes, thought, especially with Larry, she'll make an exception. She can't stand his selfishness and his immaturity.
Demeter:
Dashel: He is the older of the three Aduials in the family and is very protective of his little sister and her adopted daughter. He doesn't trust others very easily and keeps to himself most of the time. He has never told anyone, but he is slightly clostrophobic and detests crowds.
Kirilana: She is the exact opposite of her older brother, Dashel, even in her coloring. Light hearted and friendly, Lana loves meeting new people and exploring. She has her moments when she wants to be alone, but those are quite rare. She's very motherly towards the young Kivanti and would like nothing better for the little Aduial to see her as her mother.
She also has strong feelings toward another Aduial, Satoshi.
Tucker:
Cleo: She's a sweet little thing straight from the banks of the Nile. Named after Queen Cleopatra, we all just call her Cleo for short. She loves the smell of lotus blossoms on the crystal waters and was surprised one morning when her boyfriend, another vampire named Klaus, had filled our little backyard pond with the pink water flowers. She grew up listening to the readings of ancient Egyptian and she was soon working on other dead languages. Her favorites are Egyptian, Gaelic, Latin, and Greek.
Kivanti: She is the most recent, and possibly last, Aduial to become part of the family. She's very shy and slightly withdrawn, but she has good intent. She gets along well with Dashel because of their similar personalites, but she likes how much Kirilana cares for her.
Sabine: She is an interesting addition to the household, but we're glad to have her. When she was younger, she would have sudden mood-swings, but we think that she has grown out of them. She still acts a little bit like a child and her favorite thing in the world (Apart from Egan) is candy, but who's isn't? She likes making friends and feels at home in the shop she came from, playing with her little monster friends.
Larry: He is a selfish little boy and is more often than not vying for my attention. He's very energetic and, from what Coco says, often speaks his mind. He doesn't get along well with some of the others, Amora especially, because she stands her ground and often tells him off for acting like a baby.
Wish Bear: She's a kind Aukai who's main goal in life is to make other's dreams come true. She hates to see someone sad and wants to bring happiness to everyone, just like any Care Bear.
Sophie:
Charlie:

MerryPippinDJ
Jacques is Reesh's baby. He's a sweet little Scottish Terrior who loves sitting at her feet in front of the fireplace on a cold winter night. His favorite things are being scratched behind the ears and playing in the gardens with little children.RosalindDemeterHermesDaisuke
Berry's a quiet little mouse and is rather skittish around the other pets. She likes curling up in Reesh's pocket and falling asleep.
