 .::Current Attire w/ Lucifer & Weapon::.
.::Theme::. ❖Current Mood❖ ☬ What is the right path?.....The sounds of drinking and soft lute tones played within the underground bath house, men relaxed within the steaming baths as women were either joining them in the relaxation or serving ale to the customers. Within one of the private bath rooms, the steam filling the air as Jezbel laid in the water. With the steaming hot waters relaxing her aching muscles, the demon seductress only sighed softly with pleasure as she picked up a small cup of ale, sipping on the alcoholic beverage. Placing the now empty cup on the edge of the tub, Jezebel closed her eyes as she began to think about what everything happened. Clearing her mind, she began to think about what happened when the demigod himself, Vincent, gave her a choice. This was something she never truly felt. Having a choice was something she never really had. She remembered the times when Daichi would send her out to kill his enemies the best ways she could with no questions involved, the blood of her contracts dripping off of her scythe with no issue...this wasn't the case for Vincent though. Her body shook when she tried to kill him as though there was something stopping her. Opening her soft blue eyes, she looked out to see Lucifer relaxing on the other side of the bath in his wolf form, soaking his fur in the soothing waters which made the young demon assassin only smile sweetly before closing her eyes once again to think. Think about why her body didn't want her to do it. Was it because the realms really needed his help or..or was it her self conscious telling her not to..,'Is...Is my heart trying to tell me something? Am I growing feelings for him or...no, that can't be it..can it?' She began to think about what had happened back in Greece, how she helped the heroes get away from the same demons she called allies. Closing her eyes, she knew she was no longer on Master Daichi's good side but that was her choice. She made a choice, whether it was the right choice for herself or not. She knew the consequences of her actions and now..now is not the time to fight with herself. Opening her eyes once again, she saw something quiet interesting. With her arms hanging relaxing on the edge of the bath, the stared down five men who were staring her down with weapons, calling her a witch, how it is the Eternal Flame telling them to burn her on the stake,"Umm...this is a private bath, darlings.." The mob yelled out to kill the witch with fire which only made Jezebel only sigh in annoyance, wanting only to relax and think but instead, a group of mobs are about ready to throw their torches straight at her. With this, Jezebel only stood up slowly, the water glistening off of her soft dark skin as the mob hesitated slightly. They just stared which only made Jezebel place her hands on her hips before speaking up,"You know, it's impolite to stare...now you'll have to be punished....sick 'em, Luci" One man turned to see the shadow of the corner began to grow larger as Lucifer stood straight up on all fours. The man only let out a quick girlish scream as the Demonic Wolf threw his head straight down at the human's head, chomping on his upper body with such force that blood began to squirt out with intensity. The four other mob members screamed in terror as they were splashed with the blood of their comrade. While the madness was happening, Jezebel only sighed as she moved her hand over her body, slowly dropping her hand majestically as purple aura began to flow around her bust and her waist. As the aura spread down, her body began to be covered with a elegant dress as she quickly thrust out his right hand to summon her scythe, the blade shining the color of Lilac Diamonds as she only smirked on one side of her cheek. Her eyes blinked only one more time as the aura flowed over her eyes to quickly disappear to show her glasses re-appearing on her face, opening her eyes quickly before dashing straight toward the mob who were too slow to notice. Swinging her scythe to the side, the blade completely separated the man from his legs, both sides dropping with blood splashing all over but interestingly enough, not on her. Lucifer only smiled as he threw the man he was gnawing on like a bone straight into the water, making the blood begin to pollute the bath water before noticing the third man swinging the fire straight at him, yelling about how the Eternal Fire will envelope the Witch and her Demon. Lucifer only stared before forcefully breathed out of his nose which instantly extinguished the fire from the torch. The man just stared before the next thing he knew, Lucifer turned with his back feet toward him before kicking with his back legs which pushed the man straight into a concrete pillar, splattered now with blood. The last two men ran straight toward Jezebel, one man swinging his broad sword straight toward her neck which the dark skinned demon seductress only smirked before the blade immediately stopped from Jezebel's left hand stopping it with two fingers and her thumb. The man looked at her scared as she just stared at him with her soft blue eyes, knowing this man had made a huge mistake but not as big of a mistake as the man who was behind her. Wrapping his left arm around her neck, the man's partner tried to choke her out which Jezebel only laughed before speaking up,"Now now...are you trying to tease little ol' me..." The man just looked at her in confusion before Jezebel quickly flipped the man over her own body with her right hand, slamming the two men together which they fell on the ground. She looked to see that the men were in a position where she knew Vincent would have a perverted response if he were to see this. She only sighed before speaking up,"With this trespassing offense, this shall be your punishment..." The man on the bottom looked from between the man's legs who was unconscious on top of him had wide eyes as the Demon Seductress summoned a Lilac Diamond Bladed knife in her left hand before throwing it straight down into the man who was on top's head, going through the man's eyeball and into the privates of the bottom man. The man screamed in pain as Jezebel only stared before Lucifer spoke with a deep voice,"Why did you call me Luci? "I thought you liked that nickname? You are my cute little Luci~", Jezebel replied, placing her left hand on her left side of her waist, looking up to her large companion before smiling softly to see the annoyed look on Lucifer's wolven face. Softly giggling, Jezebel looked back at the mess the two have made before speaking up softly,"Lets go before the authorities find out what happened...Lets head back to the ship." Lucifer only nodded softly before Jezebel looked back down at the the man who was still screaming, shaking her head softly before turning around to open a portal behind her. Lucifer only growled at the screaming man before following Jezebel through the portal, disappearing from the bloody crime scene. Is it okay to let your heart lead you?..... ☬

After coming through the portal, Valencia stopped and looked around confused. "What the hell? This isn't Rivia..." Valencia pulled out the rune again as Layla came through the portal. She examined it and noticed the magic was weak and needed time to recharge. "Bad news. The portal malfunctioned and brought us here... This isn't the outskirts of Rivia. Where are...?" Valencia rotated 360 degrees to spot a withered sign saying 'Novigrad.' Valencia face palmed and let out a heavy sigh of annoyance. "You're kidding me? We're in Redania?... Sh*t, we're not even in the right continent..." Shukurai appeared beside Valencia. He too was a bit displeased. "Rivia is a long way from here on foot. Can't get there by flight." Valencia continued. "And we have no money for horses. We should find a tavern in the city. Maybe word spread fast enough of those Diamond Dogs?"

 Theme:Here...Seeing as these are blurred I guess I wont be answering that... ●...If only I could figure out what happened... ● Layla camne through the portal ready to see what was on the other side would she see people in renaissance clothing? Would she witness a war with horses and swords? A woman carrying buckets from a well? When they entered they were on some dirt road with a sign that read Novigrad, upon hearing they were on the wrong continent and that Rivia was else where she frowned,"Well this is going to be a long ride so to speak", said Lalya as she nodded toward Valencia,"You mind if I give you two nicknames while we are at it?", as they walked down the dirt road in search for a tavern;

Valencia nodded about the nicknames as she began to walk with Layla towards the city. "Sure. What do you have in mind?" Shukurai turned from his human form into a small lizard dragon then scurried onto Valencia's shoulder. He then climbed into her hood and hid in her hair. Poking his adorable small dragon head out from her hair as they walked. Valencia chuckled. "If someone is disrespectful to us, poke out and set them on fire." The small dragon Shukurai laughed. "Will do." They approached the gate to the city that was surrounded by a wall. Shukurai hid quickly in her hair when a guard approached them. "Halt. State your business in Novigrad." Valencia looked to the guard and spoke calmly. "We seek the nearest tavern for food and rest. Perhaps work." The guard gave them a stern and skeptical look as he judged them. He nodded slowly. "Very well but we better not have any trouble with you two." They opened the gates and let them pass. Valencia noticed strange looks from the Guards towards her and Layla. It was starting to bug her. Once through the gate Valencia and Layla got a lot more weird looks and some stares from civilians. Valencia grumbled to herself irritably. "F*cking Old Ages... People here are so f*cking rude..." Shukurai mumbled from her hood. "I'm not burning the city, Vae..." Valencia rolled her eyes then spots a tavern further down the mildly crowded road. The sign slightly creaking as it swung in the breeze. "There's one just ahead." She lowered her voice and whispered to Shukurai. "Shuk, when we get inside, see if you can pick some pockets. We need some coin." Shukurai's black snout poked out from her hair and mumbled in her ear. "You know I hate stealing... I'll only take enough to get by. You're gonna have to figure out how to get a pair of horses..." Valencia sighed knowing he would make them do it honestly but wouldn't completely let them suffer. Honorable little sh*t. "Fine..."

 Theme:Here...Seeing as these are blurred I guess I wont be answering that... ●...If only I could figure out what happened... ● Layla smiled at Valencia,"Well yours is easy I was going with Val for short...", she stopped as they began to approach the gate,"Though shukurai's was.. a bit harder..", she said quietly as they approached she let Valencia do all the talking and then as they entered they got daggers by nearly everyone in the town including the guards,"I suppose they are just suspicious of strangers it honestly pretty common among.. humans", she told her,"Most people are just noisy and want to know what you are if you stand out", she then noticed the inn up ahead,"I think we should see if they have some work I mean I could pick a few crops or clean a stall or something to help us out", she told Valencia as they came upon the inn there was rucus inside and then the next thing you know some guy was tumbling out drunk and coughing as he made his way down the road stopping into a nearby allyway to take a leak,"Oh gosh I forgot about the hygene...", she said feeling disgusted for a moment;

 .::Witcher Armor w/ Younger Artis::.
❖.::Theme::.❖ ☬ I'm here to do one thing, to kill monsters...Ugh..Novigrad..A place where people always felt so high and mighty, not a care in the world as long as they are protected by their religion. The religion of the Eternal Flame. Artis always hated coming here but unfortunately, he had no choice as he walked alongside his horse. Lighting up his tobacco pipe, the annoyed witcher walked up to the front of the defense wall where he was immediately stopped by two guards,"Well well..if it isn't a mutant.." "He's kinda a ugly b@stard isn't he", the other soldier continued to insults as the two kept their hands resting on the hilt of their swords. Artis kept his hood up but his scars were never going to be truly hidden but in all honesty, he didn't care. He knew that he had work to do in the city so with that, Artis groaned tiresome before using the Axii sign on the two soldiers. The Axii's magical ability was to make the two calm themselves and walk away, but instead, the soldier who called Artis ugly looked toward the other soldier before speaking up,"You did what to my sister?" "Wait..what? What are you talking about", The other soldier spoke up before getting tackled to the ground, giving Artis a chance to go inside, which is exactly what he does. Walking in with his horse's leash in hand, the tired looking Witcher looked around to see so many people walking around. The sounds of thunderous applause in the distance was meant for the burning of two people, one male and one female. This was in one of the many courtyards as Artis walked through to head toward the tavern, hearing the priest yell out about how the woman was a witch and the male was a man conspiring to help her. What a piece of horse sh!t this place was that was polished into looking like a paradise. ..In all shapes and forms. ☬

Valencia shrugged her shoulders. "That or 'Vae,' will do. Rhymes with 'Fae,' which is just another name for 'Fairy.' My brother gave me that nickname and I still think it is cute." Valencia giggled lightly. Shukurai mumbled to Layla from Valencia's hood. "Just 'Shuk' is fine with me. I know my name can be hard to say in a bad situation. I hate it but it is my name..." Valencia sighed as she knew the truth of his name and it sucks. Poor guy. She then twitched her nose in disgust as she thought about the hygiene of old ages but wasn't bothered by the guy in the alleyway. "If you think that's bad, you're in for a shock... It can get a whole lot worse... I can hunt deer or make deliveries across the city. Even if I have to run my a** off." Valencia turned her attention to the soldier yelling and accusing a woman of witchcraft and the man she was with a conspirator. Valencia was beyond disgusted and wanted to butcher the guard along with those with them. Shukurai could feel her heat raise and tried to calm her down. "I know this is obscene but we can not interfere..." Valencia spoke quietly with an angry grit of her teeth. "I hate humans like them..." "I know..." Valencia had no choice but to turn away. Just as she began to proceed to the Tavern, she noticed the white haired man walking ahead of them with a horse. His hair was a buzz-cut which was unusual for this age with a couple of scars across his head. Then noticing his the satchel from behind she tapped Layla on the arm and pointed to him. "Hey, look at him... His hair is not like around here and his satchel...is that the insignia of the Diamond Dogs?"

 Theme:Here...Seeing as these are blurred I guess I wont be answering that... ●...If only I could figure out what happened... ● Layla smiled as she said,"Ya know what Vae and Shuk are fine forget I said anything", she said feeling slightly awkward around the pair strangely considering they went through alot already, upon walking and seeing people burned she felt her stomach roll,"The smell of burning flesh I feel like this isn't the first time..", she replied softly looking upwards she seen the man Vae described He was wearing some kind of cloak for he had a hood but it seemed she was discussing his 'buzzed hair' in which she seen nothing of but she wans't sure what she meant about the state of dress, (pretty sure he is wearing the armor in the picture provided by spoiler), Layla cleared her throat,"OH yea looks different.. mhm..", she said trying to make her seem like she wasn't crazy maybe she had foresight or something and see this guy in the future in a different lighting she didn't know!

 .::Witcher Armor w/ Younger Artis::.
❖.::Theme::.❖ ☬ I'm here to do one thing, to kill monsters...Walking underneath a brick underpass through the city, the tired looking Artis found exactly where he was needed. Over by the edge of the tall defensive wall, the witcher noticed the taller building that was quite interesting. The sign hanging over the front door told the name of the Tavern, The Rosemary and Thyme. The sounds of Tavern Ladies and glasses clinking against one another could be heard on the outside of the tavern where Artis, in his cloak and witcher armor, was walking toward the door. His satchel swaying back and forth with a discolored Diamond Dog patch against the flap as he opened the door to see women a plenty along with different warriors from all over Redania. Some soldiers from Novigrad was there but odviously drunk from the smell that covered around them. Like a dog had took a pi$$ on the three. Placing the mouthpiece of his pipe between his lips, Artis sighed softly before sitting down at the table near the corner as one of the waitresses asked what he wanted,"..something strong..and to talk with Zolton please." ..In all shapes and forms. ☬

Valencia looked to Layla with a slight embarrassed blush. "I didn't mean to upset you. I respond to both, really..." She gave an awkward smile but was honest. "If you want to give me a more personal name, I will gladly accept it." Shukurai said to Layla as he tried to make her feel better. He was especially not one to judge. Valencia had her moments. The smell Layla described made Val wrinkle her nose in disgust. "Ugh. Let's get to the Tavern and I'll see if I can get a better look. I could've sworn I saw someone else..." Valencia thought perhaps there was something in the air. She was convinced she saw a military man in that hooded mercenary. Valencia shook her head and continued into the tavern called The Rosemary and Thyme shortly after the hooded man. Once he had taken a seat was when they got in. Shukurai scurried from Valencia's hood and into the shadows. He began to pick pockets for some coin as Valencia and Layla looked for a place to sit. With her head low, Valencia tried to get a better look at the man. The satchel was hard to see in the light but she noticed an empty table cross from the one he sat at. Valencia decided to take a seat there. Shukurai returned and Valencia suddenly felt her satchel get heavier. She opened it to see how much they had. "One hundred crowns. We can work with that." Shukurai climbed back into her hood but spoke to both of them. "Layla, Vae wasn't completely delusional. I got a better look at the mercenary. His satchel is old with the Diamond Dog sigil on it."(All I saw at the time was the military one. Sorry about that. sweatdrop )

 Theme:Here...Seeing as these are blurred I guess I wont be answering that... ●...If only I could figure out what happened... ● Layla smiled back,"Thanks.. Shukari", she told him quietly,"I'll think about a better one for ya", she promised as they made their way to the tavern upon entering the place was like a typical MMORPG style and it brought back video game Nostalgia sighing she walked forward to sit down with Vae looking as she pulled out the currency for the place,"He must be hiding it pretty well if thats the case..", she said looking across the table at the man, she tried to lean in and look at his sigil on his sachet which would represent the diamond dogs barely able to see it in the shadows she managed to make it out and turned back to Vae and Shuk with a nod of her head as seeing it,"When should we approach?", she asked her friends finding it not easy to approach someone about their past out in broad opening like this;

 .::Witcher Armor w/ Younger Artis::.
❖.::Theme::.❖ ☬ I'm here to do one thing, to kill monsters...Sitting there, puffing away on his pipe, the tired looking witcher stood there with his eyes looking down at the whiskey that was placed in front of him. Squinting his eyes, he looked to his right when he noticed a dwarf standing there. His hair was different shades of red and with his dirty apron over his chest as he spoke up with his arms crossed,"You sir looked like you needed a drink.." Artis sighed as he placed his hand in his satchel, pulling out something the dwarf raised his eyebrow to. Some coin that was about to be paid to him but the dwarf refused the money for once as he explained,"No no..I want you to try this whiskey sir. Made it myself. I call it the 7 Wonders Whiskey." Artis, who was still showing his annoyed look on his face, looked back toward the whiskey glass before placing his hand on it, cold to the touch. With a soft sigh, the witcher took the glass quickly, drinking it down completely before placing the glass back to the table. Artis could taste the hard alcohol in his mouth and yet, with his enhanced resistance to poison, the alcohol had no effect to him which made the dwarf sigh before sitting on the other side of the table,"..damn..thought with how strong it is that even a witcher would be effected by it. Guess I was wrong. I call it the 7 Wonders Whiskey because it has seven effects on the body..Sleepy, Grumpy, Sneezy, Happy, Dopey, Horny, or Burpy. It makes me a little bit hor-" "You aren't Zolton..", Artis rudely interrupted the dwarf as he just sat there, his cloak still wrapped around his shoulders and his hands on the table. The dwarf only sighed before rubbing the back of his head which hand long red hair going down, his beard long and braided. "You know..rude to interrupt a man while he's talking you know? If I interrupted my buddy, Pillow Shoes, he'd try to stab me. Guess the whiskey did effect you because you are definitely grumpy..", the dwarf replied back before taking his own whiskey shot straight up before placing it back onto the table before walking away, letting him know that Zoltan is just finishing up. Walking toward the two beautiful women at the other table, which Artis smirked as he knew that the two ladies were there for him, the dwarf's whiskey was already starting it's effect as the dwarf tried to use his charisma to try to swoon the two,"The name is Clingus...Clingus MiDingus..you two ladies like a shot of my famous 7 Wonders Whiskey?" ..In all shapes and forms. ☬

Valencia thought about approaching the man when she noticed the red haired dwarf talking to him. She tried to listen in over the chatter of the crowd. "A Witcher? He's been here awhile..." Valencia was astonished. Shukurai then noticed the dwarf approach and hid quickly. "Heads up. That dwarf seems..." Valencia nodded slowly. "It's obvious. Layla if you wish to approach, now's the chance. I'll keep the dwarf occupied." When the dwarf approached introduced himself provocatively, Valencia smiled charmingly at the dwarf and her gaze makes men weak in the knees. "Whiskey, hm?" Valencia looked to Layla next to her. "Have a shot before you say hello. Witcher's can be real hard asses due to their mutation but they're honest..." Valencia then turned to the man named Clingus. "We'll both have a sample. Why is it called 7 Wonders?" Valencia asked as she pushed a couple of glasses to the dwarf.
