Veronica folded her arms over her chest, with ehr scythe still at hand, and stood awkwardly with the circle of men. "If you missed it, too bad. As if you hadn't known me anyway." She said, meaning her name. Durithill had said her name before he had disapearred with Lady Raine. "It's not like they're going to stay there forever, just relax, you'll get to see him again." She spoke in somewhat of a teasing, pathetic love-sick tone, raising a hand in the air and allowing it to flop in a girly matter, like this man was in love with Durithill or something. "So, who might you men be?" Her voice became stern again, keeping her hood over her head ho hide her features.

Taking it all in Nargarensis made several conclusions about the two before him. She obviously seems to be a demon hunter of some merit. Whatever her connection to Durithill is I'm not sure. He looked at the other one next. And he seems to be from the earth realm with sand powers, it would also seem that he's pretty full of himself.
Sensing that these two may prove to be troublesome in the near future he stood tall and said, "I am named Turver and I'm a bounty hunter from here. I seek the large bounty on Durithill's head." Another one of Nargarensis' traits was being able to lie with extreme proficiency.

'I care not what you are or do unless you get in the way of honour or water. Beware the call of the cicada, 'tis the screeching of demons.'
He rattled his body and cloak, making a cicada call from his water debt rings clashing together. He sensed subterfuge, but not the direct outlet of the lie.
'Now would you like to sit and talk peacefully, or do you wish to taste the teeth of the Shai-Hulud?'

Veronica raised an eyebrow. Although this couldn't be seen, the smirk spreading across her lips was. "Ye both seem pretty odd t' me." She said, raising her hand and tapping her index finger on her head. Valentine imitated her father's voice, in which no one knew. She tended to to that, often for sarcastic or odd quotes.

'If you walked amongst the Bedwine you to would seem quite strange.'
He shakes again, giving off the cicada call. Amongst the Ichwan Bedwine it was a threat or challenge.
'And I would expect a demon hunter to see through the subterfuge and deceit.'
He spoke of himself and the human-like exterior that hid a heart of black glass and blood of black sand. He was Azhir,a sand demon that could shed its soft shell and reveal a horrible monster.

"Oh, please! Give me a break." She hollared, leaning foreward, as if when she spoke, it was more forecful. "Relax! I never ment to threaten you!" She hissed, now leaning back against a thick-based tree. "All men are odd, strange creatures to me. Don't take it as an insult." She scowled at the sandman. "Now take a breather. I'm certainly not going to attack you, I had to intention of it."

"Hmph," Nargarensis snorted. "The only condition to me speaking on peaceful terms is if mister sandman here stops speaking in circles. Otherwise," He brings his hand up near his face with his palm facing him and clenches it into a fist. "There are other ways."

'So you know little of the Azhir I suppose. A demon hunter should know all her prey, even the ones who do good. I am Adromelek of Dead Irem, lost city taken to the Great Erg.'
He spits at the ground at her feet, a sign of respect amongst the Bedwine but not amongst other groups.
'It is good to meet a mortal with the kind of bravery to hunt the dark brothers.'
He looks at the other.
'But you are threatening, and you show no respect. The desert wind would likely strip the skin from your bone before you could listen to our warnings.'

"I've heard of your kind." She said with a smile as he spit near her feet. Most would have taken this action to offense, but she simpy bowed, also for a sign of respect. This man had lived in those harshe living conditions, and at least he respected her.
"No, boys.. Boys, please!" She said, holding her hands out as if to stop the arguing. She's already seen enough with Durithill and that male council member today, she didn't need another incident. Raising her hands to the edges of her hood, Veronica pulled down her concealing cloak and shook her head, to free her silver locks. "What is this need for this arguing, honestly?"

'There is none save the heat of water to long in the sun and rage to long in the soul. To spill water would be pointless here.'
He runs each of his daggers across the tops of his cheeks, allowing a single drop of blackish blood weep down and onto the ground before sheathing his knives.

"hey, buddy. Relax!" She said, holding out her hands as if to tell him to stop. "No need for that kind of nonsense." She said, followed by a chuckle.
As the sky began to lighten, Veronica shook her head and pulled her cloak's hood back ontop of her head. "Well, I best be off, boys. The light of day seems to be breaking." She said with a depressed tone before picking up the end of her cloak and pulling it along with her as she spun around to take her leave. "Until we meet again..." And with that, she disapearred into the forest..

'May the winds of the Great Erg see to it we meet again.'
He smiles and makes the cicada rattle at the dark one. He too disappeared back towards town. He wished to go visit his friends among the sands.

Nargarensis saw Veronica leave and decided it would be best to disappear too. He quickly summoned a portal and walked through it and closed it immediately behind him.

(Wow, you all are so active. XP)
As Violent left into the blackened path that lay ahead of her, she heard Midnight make small sounds as if saying something that sounded important. Violent stopped her feet from taking another step as she glanced up at her excited bird that sat onto her head. "What is is Midnight?" She said in a soft tone, realising all her anger from before. The bird called back to Violent, a weak smile creeping to Violent's face as she looked behind her at the path at which she had emerged from. "So... Raine was here, once again..." She said in a teasing voice. Letting out a small sigh, shrugging her shoulders, Violet closed her eyes for a moment's hesitation, shaking her head, before opening them again, her gleaming purple eyes shinning in the moon-light, thoughts of memories flashing throught her head. "..." She stayed silent as she continued to walk, finally making it out of the dreaded forest to the dim-lighted streets.
"What to do now?" Was all that she thought as she remember what Durithill's last words to her were. A chuckle emerged past her lips as Violent shook her head once again. "It's only in a matter of time... he'll change, I know it..." With that, she silently walked down the empty street, heading into the bar which she hadn't known everyone she had met had been eariler that evening.
Opening the door, Violent took a seat down at the bar, gazing around at her surroundings, looking at the many people that were there, as thoughts filled though her head. Raine... Violent sighed, bypassing an oppetunity for a drink from the bartender as a expression of frustration and serious thinking overcame her face...

((xDDD!! What do you expect? Imagine with more people!? ;o))
Emerging from the forest rather quickly, Veronica stretched and pulled her cloak firmly over her body. This was the time of day she hated, when the sun was rising. Ughh... Damn. I should get some rest.. She though, then turning her head in the direction of her family's house. Or visit Hikaru.. A wide smile spread across her face. What was more enjoyable then visiting her baby sister? Well, she wasn't really a baby, but she was younger, much younger then Veronica. Hikaru was merely eleven and looked much like Veronica.
Turning the direction of her footsteps, Veronica began to walk towards the house in which she lived years ago. Rapping her knuckles against the cherrywood door, Veronica heard little running footsteps towards the door. With a wide smile, Veronica pulled down her hood and waited for her sister to answer.
With the door flinging open, A little girl with short silver hair looked up at Veronica, a large smile spreading across her face. "Mom! It's Veronica!!" Hikaru stepped out of the way and let go of the door handle, running down the long ceramic hallway. "It's Veronica! It's Veronica!" She yelled happily.
