| "Meanwhile, there's a gift that I would like to give Annafrid, so
long as the Gods and Goddesses are willing."
So, listening to her heart, the blue skinned Mountain Fairy begins to
make entreaties to her Gods and Goddesses to grant her this gift on this
one very special and brave woman.
"And what gift is this?" Annafrid asks, thinking that perhaps the fairy
would again give her something like that ability to tame any beast, "The
ability I was given last time? That would be nice...."
Chelene, eye's still half closed as she is still seeking favor
from on High, still manages to give off a laugh that is a combination of
fairy bells and bady's breath (very light, airy, and totally fey).
"Young one!" she laughs softly, "What I give you is well above and beyond
that last one.... for once this Gift is given, it can never be taken back
by any Being less than Those who were willing to grant it in the first
place!
"I give to you eternal youth and health - you will never age, will never
fall sick or die." she say, exultant as she Feels the Gift flow from her
into the young human woman, "You will remain your young, beautiful self
forever."
"Well, that will make the upcoming relation I saw more lasting," Astra
mutters to herself softly. Andrea and Chelene have sensitive enough ears
to hear that, but since neither one had seen the look that Annafrid had
given Jarlath.....neither knew what Astra was speaking about.
But be that as it may, none of them are privy to a quick but silent
conversation that is going on....something that only the mind's eye of
Annafrid can see.
Three Celestrial Beings are what she sees before her. Shocked and awed,
she gasps and bows humbly before them....showing the respect due to Those
as powerful as They.
One is a beautiful female angel.
One is a strange bein dressed in eldritch grey and black clothing and
wearing a strange facial decoration in front of his (?) eyes.
The last is a young seeming man that seems to be dressed in barbaric
splender of leathern garments....and chains.
"Before we can grant you this Boon," the heavenly angel says softly,
"Know that once given, we will not take it back. Also, the Others must
knows if you are willing to become their Champions."
"Know that you must not lie," the leather clad figure speaks, "For at
this point falsehood will prove to be your undoing."
Rule and Agent already knew that this one was capable and willing, but
this Ceremony was Mandated...so deviation was....a bad idea.
The Rayek incident had made Alowances for special compensations.......
-
 But, this was touchy
business, and if Annafrid didn't navigate this correctly....nothing personal....they'd
have to destroy her and put her in the Here After.
Go Back
