Welcome to Gaia! ::

A grin crossed the liquid figure's face as he motioned with his finger that she come closer. "Aww come now, don't be so hesitant. Come on it. The water is great.." Yawgmoth taunted. Maybe she couldn't get a rise out of him just yet, but he was sure going to try and get one out of her.

After all, she was his toy and that's what you did with toys. You played with them until they either broke or you got a new more fun toy to play with. Yawgmoth was certain that this firecracker of a woman was going to entertain him for quite some time.

"We told you, it is only a part of us now. We think maybe we should've stayed submerged longer. Perhaps you would've thought this something else, a hot spring perhaps and gone skinny dipping had we not shown up. We would've enjoyed seeing the shock on your face then." He replied as the liquid figure splashed back into the stained water. All the great mass of black began to swell into one spot near the shore line before the familiar black puddle formed on the solid land. The lake returned to its crystal clear and vibrant self, the stains of Yawgmoth no longer present. The liquid on the ground formed into a liquid version of Yawgmoth but like usual became his solidified self. "There, if you're going to be such a brat about us in the lake. It is normal now." he said crossing his arms over his chest with distaste.

Yawgmoth shrugged. "Keep talking, we'll merge with the water now that you're in it and rip them off of you if you'd like. You haven't won yet, we just have chosen not to fight back at this point. We're enjoying watching you squirm." Yawgmoth said stepping further away from the lake and onto dry land.

The Dark King chuckled and shook his head with a light sigh. Turning back towards her he said "There are far worse fates than death. We can simply torture and rape you, day in and day out until we grow bored of you. Trust us when we say your will power will be none by the time we're done with you if we do that. We are quite adept at this magic business. Beating you within an inch of your life and then regenerating your wounds solely to repeat the process is not a difficult task. Think first, of what we could be capable of before you make such taunts and jabs little girl. We are able to do things to you that even your darkness nightmares cannot express." The tyrant finished, a sadistically gleeful expression adorning his handsome face. Yawgmoth simply sat down on the grass and watched her, observing, waiting for her response back. She could live in denial if she wanted, but the truth of the matter was that he was very very capable of making every statement in his words come true if he so desired.

"Not necessarily. We usually don't keep them around very long" Yawgmoth replied with a shrug. Her words proved more true than she could ever imagine. It was the fact that she stood up to him so boldly. Yawgmoth had never been afraid of a challenge, he welcomed them all. It's what gave his life meaning nowadays, finding the next thing the next obstacle to overcome. "Coward you say? We do not deny being power hungry, that is why we have an empire and why it's an empire paved with the blood of those who stood in it's way. We wanted more power and we went for it. But it is in that statement alone that disproves your coward accusation little girl. We have never been afraid of anything, any challenge we went for it, any battle we fought it, stood up for our family we did it. We are far from a coward. Fear is merely an instrument of a tyrant." Yawgmoth said running his hands through the grass he sat upon. "Never one of those people you say? Clearly you have never seen the horrors of the Phyrexian Empire. You wouldn't be the first Earthling to think they have a good grasp on things. On what's frightening and what isn't, what breaks your mind and what doesn't. You know so very little Ayla, So very, very little. Whenever we decide to break you finally, we will show you what the word terror really means."

She nodded a bit. "I can no more take the blood lust from you than you would be able to put it in to me. Though I may understand better now, I do not know how I feel other than knowing I care very much for you and your well being." she said softly, still leaning against the tree for comfort. Though she could not see clearly, there was something in his voice. "You are preoccupied?"
