Less than an hours time 'til official dusk, and 2 weary mounts plodded into the outskirts of K'ethrl. It is a small farming community watched over by a Keep Lord of middle standing. The populus consisting of no more than maybe four - six hundred peasants and middle class merchants, most of them poor as dirt and living in hovels.
Many such community's were too poor to afford an Inn and Tavern, but K'ethrl was one of the luckier lower classed villiages. It had the lucky advantage of being the first spit of inhabitable land nearest the rocky outcrops of the Biathen caverns which are known for their limited quantity of Tiesrtn Ore, a rather precious commodity in these parts.
As they passed by the farmer's fields, the villiagers were busy herding in the livestock before darkness came. It was rumoured that many strange beats hunted their prey after dark, and there'd even been a few reports of peasant's who'd been attacked. As such, Sierra wasn't surprised to see people scrambling about, taking advantage of the last few moments of daylight before the shadows made it unsafe to be outside.
A biting wind had sprung up. It was late fall and the northern winds had started to sweep through the lands, carrying with them cooler temperatures. The elf maiden draws her cloak more snugly across her face, shielding her pale skin from the chill air, whilst masking her appearance now that people were starting to note she and her companion.
Reigning her mount in to a halt, she waits for the cloaked devil behind her to catch up.

Downwind and downtroddin', still, by having employment with an elf. Regardless that they had travelled together for some time, he still couldn't get past his prejudice towards his client's race.
He mumbled several curses to himself as he wrapped his heavy cloak more tightly about his body while he was bounced up and down from his horse's back. The Devil spouted a couple more oaths towards his greed of coin and then began to reason that he better get used to it instead of risking this profitable engagement with the Lady of....mystery...
There was still that thing about her that had Kain fascinated. Her tail and a-...a delicious tainted aura.

Golden eyes narrow as the Devil bounds up beside her. Luckily, from within the depths of her mantle, he wouldn't be able to notice the smirk that found it's way onto her lips as she noted his slightly 'jarred' expression. Kain didn't seem to be very a happy camper. She couldn't really blame him, she knew full well that he despised her from the very tip of those long pointed ears, to the toes of her delicate elven body.
:: I don't see what his problem is... ::
She was nearly startled as an all too familiar voice resounded in her head
:: What? You didn't really think that this tasty morsal had slipped my notice do you? Silly elf... You really are one of those that they'd call 'aloof'. ::
:: You have a point to make? ::
She was only slightly annoyed, and it showed clearly in the colour of her thoughts.
:: Yes. I don't see what his problem is, you've offered him wealth and a position of power... A creature such as he has need of nothing more than a means to fulfill his greed and bloodlust.... ::
:: You forget that I'm technically a creature of 'light' ::
:: By my troth!!~ You? An innocent and a daughter of light? Not since the moment your occursed parents had the heat and desire within them to concieve you child. ::
:: He knows no better. ::
:: Then I would have him learn dear sister-- You really are a tame thing. Your fragile sensibilties are stifling. He would do better to serve under a more voracious woman than you allow yourself to be... ::
:: ... ::
:: I will win this one to your side for you, and you will thank me. ::
It was as simple as that, with a mere flex of power that the inner demoness had been holding in reserve, biding her time... it wasn't dificult to overpower the already weakened and weary woman. Ra'kar had waited until Shin had rode ahead, for surely he'd come to his mistress' aide. But not Kain she suspected... no. He would embrace her...
"It's not much further now, food and strong drink await us... I have much to disclose with you my sinful friend..."
Something was different, surely he'd notice that much...

The waft of Demon power was emense and imediate. Kain's eye's grew wide in an instant, both locked to his companion...?
The She-elf was hardly at all recognizable, by energy standards. The instant alterations of Sierra had Kain's thoughts whirling in a spiral of questions- Was this an attack of some sort, a trick unto him?...perhaps a test...displeasure for his temperment, for he didn't beget the ideal Mercenary that he prided himself on when in the Lady's presence. No, this was different. A Demon he didn't doubt, but not like the lowly creatures from his dimension...
Still slighted from the change and more than confused/skeptic.
"A-Aye, Lady..."
He knew of posession and all that hoopla...not posession...a symbiote? The tail itself suggested it. His client was, indeed, full of secrets and some he wouldn't care to know but others....seemed to brigthen his mood...he would learn more about this changed "Sierra"...

Ra'kar chuckled as she spurred her mount into a canter and rode to where she knew the Rusty Nail lay in wait for them. Sierra had instructed Shin to warn them of their forthcoming when the decision for him to ride a few days ahead had been made. As she pulled up to the weather worn building, sure enough a spindly youth emerged from the lean-to that acted as a stables and caught her horse by the bridle. With a somewhat buck-toothed grin, the freckled lad piped up right away.
"Da's been expecting you missus, s'got the grub for supper cookin' on the hearth. Yer rooms are ready too."
"Thank you lad, here's a coin for your troubles. I'll give you two more if these horses are seen to properly. They need a rub down and a warm bran mash with their feed."
The boys eyes shone as he beheld the shiney bit o'coin.
"Aye M'am! I aint no stranger to hosses. They'll be looked after real swell!"
The boy waited to relieve Kain of his mount as Ra'kar headed inside. She wanted a bath, her body was caked in dust from the dirt roads they'd traversed. A girl of about 8 years old, rather plain in appearance greeted the woman upon entry...
"Child, where might we get a bath?"
"Out back there's the bathhouse lady, yer welcome to it."
"Thank you, send my companion there when he arrives please."
The demoness was already on her way out back.

Kain dismounted and handed the reigns to the boy but not without first throwing the idea of telling him to be carfule of his mount's mouth. The horse seemed to have a distaste for humans and tried to take a n** from anyone that got near to it.
Kain rearranged his garments, getting the tight areas worked out. Comfortable and eager for that drink that Sierra had mention Kain stepped into the Tavern and perused the place in search of the Client.
Almost right away he received his answer via one little girl. He followed her instructions and sauntered off to find the Lady.

The tantalizing smell of roasting beef or something very near it, (you never could be sure what you were eating in these parts) would waft after the Devil has he passed through the building briefly.
Ra'kar had been somewhat dissapointed to find out that the 'bathhouse' was little more than a shack that could fit no more than 5 people at once and it lacked partitions... but that wasn't her quarrel. The water was icy cold. With a huff she flicked her tail tip into the small pool and instantly, steam began to arise from it's now heated surface.
Glancing about she spotted the towels that had been left for them. She was taking a step in that general direction when Kain came through the door.
She'd by now stripped off her mantle, and it was hanging on a peg, leaving her facial features clearly visible, thanks to several oil lamps that lit the small building. Slitted eyes locked with his, rouged lips grinning as she pushes crimson bangs from her eyes. He would note immediately, that the smooth perfection of her skin was now marred with tribal tattoos and markings.
"Yo!~"

Kain had already unlatched the top notch of his cloak and was in the midst of slipping it from his right shoulder when Sierra--the Demon...ess turned around and faced him.
The tattoos brought a sly wolfish grin to his lips. The moment those marks had come into his view all doubt about the sudden change of his Client's being had been washed away.
"Hello. It seems something is different about you or else you've been assaulted by an very cunning artisan."
This was not exactly "Sierra" before him but another sort of creature. The real question still remained however...why keep this a secret from him? The other question...why now?

Ra'kar's lips formed a small 'o' of surprise as she finished her step forwards, placing herself very near to the line of the devil's body. From here it wasn't hard for her to reach out and catch hold of the cloak. With a tug she would draw it from his body and in doing so, draw his body against hers.
"Who... What... Why..."
She croons as she drapes the cloak over her left arm, her right hand finding it's way to a comfortable place on the man's shoulder as she smiles coquettishly. As for her words, she didn't have to read the man's mind to know what he was wondering, it was all over his face, like an open book
"Good questions, worthy of good answers... but nothing is free you know? Especially amongst our ranks. So!~ Lets play a little game shall we? While we soak and relax, why don't we get to know one another a little better hmm? I think it's safe to say, we're both somewhat an enigma, so this should prove enlightening."
While it may seem that the demoness was coming onto him, it's likely that Kain would be comfortable with her actions. Amongst their kind, a certain extended comfort when it comes to intimacy and touch and anything deriving pleasure of the senses, is considered casual conduct and sometimes even viewed as a courtesy.
((No worries, other than a lil' nudity, She's not gonna' do much. It's just her nature to work an angle LoL))

Kain made the note of there being no partition in the baths...well, he certainly hoped that the current resident of Sierra's body wasn't the skiddish type.
"Well, I'm not sure about you...a bath would do these bones good."
At which, Kain stripped buckassed neked and settled into the bubbling pool. His expectation of the woman would be to turn her nose into the air and spout oathes at him while she tripped over herself on her way out. Then again, the NEW Sierra...he wasn't too sure, half the fun he supposed...
The muscled Devil sat calmly in the pool, drawing a cigarette from behind his ear and let it fall onto his lips. He began to raise a thumb towards the end, but held and shot a sidelong glance towards Sierra...
"I'm sorry, Lady. Mind if I add to this misty atmosphere?" indicating the cigarette.

Ra'kar let an appreciative eye wander over the well toned body of her companion, but not even a slight flush graced her cheeks, nor did her eyes soften. Oh no, this one wasn't bashful at all.
A few smooth tugs at fastenings on her own garments and the woman was undressed, paying no mind to the fact that she wasn't alone. Her ankle length hair cascading about her lithe and vuluptuous figure like a silken cloak spun of rubies, her pale skin marred by the demonic markings that traced over her pale flesh adding to her exotic beauty.
Yellowed eyes peered at the devil as he posed his question, slipping one foot into the warm water, her entire form exposed as she paused to look at him.
"Of course not... 'tis hardly a thing that could harm you or I now is it? You and I, we live in the fire and smoke of far more fatal things, isn't that right?"

Well...for an elf...not half bad. His eyes scanned the intricately tattooed woman as she hiked to the tub without any indication of him hiding it, what use would it do, she could obviously see him and...didn't ALL woman want to be looked at in an appealing manner? And if not...regardless if a slap followed his check-out, she'd no doubt giggle to herself and be complimented.
Kain needed no other hint of or hinder to light up his cigarette...not that it did much for him anymore. It just became a past time, really. Meh, once in a while when he could relax, the burning fromt he tube could sometimes calm his muscles. He locked gazes with Sierra and then looked around for his clothing...ah hell with it...he was on top of the situation...
As if someone just flicked on a lightswitch, another cigarette dropped from about 2 inches above his opened right palm...
"I'm sorry, did you want one?"
This only happened becuase a certain place, a personal sancutary that he held in behind those deep blue eyes of his...and that he knew about the pack of cigarettes strewn about the desk in that place of his...only now it was down one...Kain extended that one forward toward the firey redhead.
