Ariadne was irritated, but that was nothing especially new to her, in a world of incompetants she often found herself irate with the way one thing or another was run.. men were just terrible at everything, and in fact that was one of the reasons she was here.
Apparently one of her son's had gotten himself into somting, literally, and orb it seemed had sent him to the human world, and she'd come all the way above ground, to the world of the surface dwellers.. the word made her cringe.. to demaned to know what this worthless foo of a gblin monarch had been doing messing around with her family!
The G'eld's were not to be trifled with that was for sure! She shook her head in irritatio as she strode out through the messy streets of the goblin city. She hated being above ground, but the castle.. ugh.. it was hidous.. at least out in the maze it smelt right, it smelt of earth and stone, the glittery effect was tacky and bizzare, but she suppose she could deal with it. As she walked she made every attempt not to look up, the sky... it was horrible. It was only fit for the warriors and rogues rediculous enough to choose to travel under it.. and they often gave their lives for the cause..
Finally, settling under an arch in a particularl ydeep patch of shadow she aused, her red eyes still squinting slightly against the bright moon light.. At least it was better than the candle lit halls back at the castle.

Hana stalked the maze with a predators easy grace, redish brown hair fluttering in the sight breeze and leaving the sweet smell of poppy blossoms in full bloom in her wake. No sound did her bare feet make, the smell harboring her presence to world around her.
The oni's head tilted ever slightly, lips parting to show a hint of white at the creature settled in the deep shade. How very intresting.
She had been at the seams of the underground, prying into the life around her learning, figuring and trying to keep away from the castle but constanly keeping away from the populance. It was bad enough the King had learn of her and the likes of her kin. But watching had long since grown boring.
The eyes glazed laziy under half lids, before moving smoothing to the person of intrest. Perhaps, it was time to truely make herself know.

Ariadne despised goblins, they were foolish creatures and she had taken great pleasure in kicking two or three of them as hard as she could when she'd found them lurking outside the poor excuse for a room she had been given. Didn't they appriciate who she was...? The woman most likely to become on of the next Priestess's of Llolth..? A Cleric and a assasin in one.. ugh.. they were pointless little wastes of time to her, only elves came more into ther contempt at the moment, but there was always pleanty of contempt for them.
As she stood she felt on odd sensation on the back of her neck, she felt watch, and it set the wary assasin side of her more on edge than usual.. he red eyes flicked around her, but seemed unable to pick anything out.. the air was silent.. it was disorientating.. and.. what was that smell...? It was quite unknown to her drow senses... it was strange.. a sweet smell unexpected in the dank seeming place.

Lips parted fully as Hana came into view, clearly showing the bright sharpness of her teeth. Walking purposely she came closer, eyes never leaving the drows.
Silently the Oni slid beside the assasin, enjoying the quiteness of the shade and security of the arch. The feel of bare earth under her feet, rich and cool and the heat from the living skin beside her. "Good evening," she whispered out voice husky and deep.

Araidne had to admit she was rather surprised that her senses had let her down so fully... how had this woman gotten so close to her..? Her eyes lingered on the strange toothy smile for a moment, this affored her no clues however as to what the woman was.. Was she a danger..? She couldnt tell, so she had to stay on her guard. her initial responce to put a little distance between them if she could, while staying at least partyly under the shelter of the arch where her eyes wouldnt hurt and her vision would be better, she stepped to the side a little, keeping in the shade.
"Who is it that disturbs me..? Speak creature of the surface, for I demand an answer.." She was obviously a womam well used to getting what she wanted and no less... The far more pleasnt greeting of the other was ignored for now, as her surprised had irked her. Ariadne, the head of the G'eld family, was never surprised.

The dark eyes gleamed with quite laughter that would never be given voice. It was rude to laugh out loud. Was it really such a shock to the poor creature her sudden appearance? She smiled again at the thought, light glitting slightly on her canines.
"Does it matter who disturbs you?" The eyes lazily shut, clearly not seeing the drow as a threat at the moment. "Or would you rather have what as disturbed you answered? There is quite some different between the to and more then one answer for both."

Ariadne didn't like feeling like she was being teased, and this strangers relaxed countenance and her lilting tone almost felt like she was toying with her.. the Drow drew a steadying breath.
"Your name will do, Miss." She stated the person was evidently female, but she could ascertain no more, still, this was promising none the less, Women at least had sense in their heads, so the situation should be over soon enough. Just as soon as this woman saw that she had no interest in giving up her time to her beyond what seemed necessary to find out if this creature needed to be.. removed...
"I am Ariadne.. First in decent of the G'eld Family." she introduced herself proudly, he dark red eyes fixed on the stranger.
"What is your purpose here..?" It wasn't her home, but right now she was uneasy, and wanted answers..

Stillness, peaceful, Hana settled her self against the arch casually touching the drow, the mere brush of figner on skin. The smell of poppy surrounded her with their sweet scent and though it all she heard the gathering of a deep breath.
"Chiu, Chiu Hana," she husked out last name first as proper with her culture and race. Her fingers ran over her painted lips, listening carefully as the drow was intruduced. "Ariadne," she whispered softly, almost intimatly at the end. "G'eld," she purred the last. "Ariadne G'eld, why am I here? Mmm to be known."

Ariadne again felt herself decidedly unnerved by this woman.. this.. Chiu Hana.. What in the underdark was she anyway..? The uncanny smell as well was a little distracting, and every now and then she could feel her usually highly allert senses dull, this set her guard up though, for her senses where her greatest stregnth, and every precaution had to be used in the even of them becoming less effective.
"You are here to be known..?" She questioned, repeating the others responce,
"This seems an unlikely place to be known to anyone.. only chance brings me out walking, you cannot have known there would be any here would have had the chance to known you.."

"I saw you first and then I approached you only saw me till late," the oni replied. "Such, I came to be known to you and to know you." The woman ran her hand over the others hair, running though the sheet of white silk. "Such an unusual color. I heard of drows but I never truely belived what they looked like till now. "

Ariadne shifted slightly to the side, reclaiming her own hair from the stroking assult,
"We look as it suits us, and we are suited to our world, for the most part." She stated, her red eyes still fixed on the Oni, not really understanding what her game was, Ariadne was always suspicious, and there had to be a reason for this strange woman showing herself to her, there must be some plan being calulated...
"I can't say I've any inkling about what you are, or I'm sure I should have been curious in my own way, not that drow care so very much for the beings of the day and surface worlds..." she paused,
"What reason do you have for being in this pace tonight?"

A full smile slid onto the others lips, eyes crinkingly as she was intergrated. Suspicious, did she look, act so strange to be not trusted? Her kimono robe rustled as she leaned closer, eyes half lidded. "Perhaps, I wish to enjoy someones company, specialy one so bewitching such as you." Her fingers ran though her hair, spreading the sweet scent of flowers. "And perhaps, I thought you might like some help with a little problem. For a price of course."
THe sharp teeth grinned. "For you are here as well. Irrittated and hiding in the shadow arch."

"Bewitching?" Ariadne queried, clearly missing the point entirely,
"I have cast no magics over you, you would have known if I had, the magics of the priestesses of Lolth are far from subtle.." her eyes narrowed slightly at the following offer,
"Some help..? What could you do to help me..?" She demanded, squaring her shoulders slightly as if afronted by the offer,
"And.." he tone became suddenly wary again,
"What do you mean for a price..?" The Oni was right of course with her estimation of Ariadne's mood, it was with a good deal of irritation that she was lurking around int he shadows of the goblin kingdom, and nothing short of real anger would have coerced her into being there.
She just wanted to know why her usually adept son was prooving so useless at this very moment.

The oni eyes gleamed in hidden amusement. She tossed her hair, a soft warm chuckle coming out. "OF course, of course, why wouldn’t I know if you attempted to cast a spell over me?" The demon questioned softly. "Wouldn't I feel it?"
Her hand slipped into her robes, drawing out two silk cover balls smelling heavily of herbs and sticky cloying smell of flowers. The slender fingers ran across them. "Perhaps, I know a mean to an end of your little dilemma." No matter how much the drow denied she knew quite well she was on track. Why else would the lovely creature remain? “My price is my price and you will only know it when I come to collect.”
