Welcome to Gaia! ::

Camixi was on a mission. It was not a mission she had told anyone about before for a whole long list of reasons. This was a fairly simple mission, or so she'd thought, but no one had yet taken her up on it: Cami needed a guardian. Not a Guardian, with a capital G, because that was her sister Loki's deal. She wanted an Ashen Warrior, quiet and capable, to help her navigate the human world.

A few had already turned her down. The problem was that there wasn't a roster, or list, or any kind of comprehensive way to beg and plead with the Warriors to help her out. She just had to wander around the Death Commons and hopefully just figure it the Dusk out.

Currently she was eying down a blond, a bit on the thin side, but the Mother knew that size was no indication of ability. Summoning up her courage, wings flared for a moment as the filly moved in on her target. "Hi! Uhm...do you have a minute?"

Oh that was promising! Mentally Cami groaned and put her head into her hands but she was committed now. To just say 'I'm so sorry I was mistaken' and walk off just wasn't something that could be tolerated. Mama had taught her to never back down. Mama had also taught her how to poison someone without them noticing.

Mama's advice was interesting.

Rustling again in that dry, dusty way that the Famine horsemen all had about them the filly squared her shoulders and dead-on asked what she wanted. "I need someone to be my protector when I go out into the human world for my studies. I pay. Would you be interested?" She tried a smile to go with this (very) abbreviated version of her usual pitch, nerves showing in the way her fingers tangled together.

That was encouraging!! Nerves were replaced with excitement that she might have finally found someone willing to troop along behind her to make sure the little sage didn't get hurt. Camixi all but bounced forward onto the balls of her feet giving her an extra inch of height.

"I am! That's why I need someone to go with me. Specifically I wanted someone from Death because you are all much more serious and invested in what I'm doing than any other clan." It was obvious that a lot of thought had gone into this proposal.

Cami hadn't really considered that he had meant 'alone without another adult plus me'. "Are you interested? I promise it won't be too dangerous."

It was rather like all the lights went on in the room at once as Camixi became so completely excited that she actually lifted a few inches off the ground with the fluttering of her wings. "You will?!" She was equal parts completely shocked that someone had finally agreed, and confident that this was bound to happen eventually. "I mean, of course you will!" Laughing at her own ridiculous behavior she settled back down onto her heels, trying to give the warrior room.

"I'm Camixi, by the way. I look forward to working together!" She held out her hand in a very human gesture.
