Blood. Blood, every night, the blood. Flashes of her nightmare always seemed to play back to her, the worst remembrance of that dark day and the horrible dreams that had followed it since coming when she was nearest to the two sisters that she traveled with. Every night she caught a glimpse of the "Bloodied Paradise" that the horror who had destroyed her old life had promised, that it said her sisters were working to create but that the pair vehemently denied knowing anything about.

She woke up in a tavern bedroom, alone. Her sisters had paid for it, usually being the ones who managed their trip money instead of the younger Oria, but had skipped out early without waking her for some reason. It was hardly the first time she'd woken up alone though, and her gear was all right where she'd left it.

They were in a tiny inn called Jester's Retort in the town of Asylum. They were here on a job, retrieving an artifact from a shrine to an old god located in the mountains to the Northeast, but a storm had come over the area and they were currently stuck. The snow was coming down hard and heavy, and she could hear that the wind was as strong as it'd been the night before. The oaken floor creaked softly as she stirred on the large bed, the down bedding soft against her bare skin, but as they were waiting at this point she had time to lay around if she preferred, the room dim due to the cloud cover outside despite the early hour.

"Haa..." She sighed whipping the sweat off her forehead from the intense nightmare, peering around the room Oria tried to locate her twin sisters but seemingly they were nowhere to be had. She stood up gather her gear and putting on the warm matching outfit her sister Oeia had specially tailored for her and the eldest Ordella. It always bothered her how they all shared the one room though the Inn thankfully had two beds for each group, usually Ordella and Oeia would use one and Oria the other but that didn't stop their midnight activities.

"Don't think about it...Damn it..." Oria muttered trying to repress the sounds of sisters moans, their tongues exploring every spot that was pleasurable. Ordella ordering Oeia to her knee's to..."UGH NO!" Oria nearly shouted finall putting an end to that train of thought it'd had been difficult enough trying to suppress her lower member when it started reacting to the moans. Although she had requested that she'd be in a separate room Ordella merely scoffed at the notion giving some excuse how they were on a budget. Oria had said she would not give yet ever since she started adventuring with her elder sisters this had become a constant problem one she feared that'd she give in to soon or later.

'I suppose I should be grateful the demon wasn't there otherwise this night might've been the worst...I should find my sisters so we can get this quest done and get off this snow tomb.' Oria thoughts finished grabbing her Halberd to find her sisters so could form a plan to tackle retrieving these artifacts.

(Find Oeia and Ordella in the Inn or if not inside inquire their location and follow suite.)

Getting dressed, Oria found that she was still fairly cold, the piercing chill of the storm roiling outside penetrating the thick oak walls of the tavern. Retrieving her halberd and going downstairs, she would see that her sisters had left their weapons upstairs, and when she found them huddled by the fire downstairs they didn't seem to be planning anything. The place they were staying in was old, she could feel that in the somewhat stuffy air and hear it in the way that the wood creaked around her. There had only been three more guests when they'd arrived in the aging inn in the remote town, a man in flamboyant colorful garb with dark skin who had kept much of his face hidden, a woman with pale green skin and pointed ears who had proven both noisy and cheerful while boasting of her exploits the night before, and a well armed burly bear of a man with short gray hair and dark sunken eyes. All three were also in the common room, as well as the wiry innkeeper who seemed to be tending things on his own today, the two serving girls that he'd had aiding him the night before no doubt sent home.

Only the last was doing much in the way of moving about, cleaning the tables and putting the chairs in order. The chill of the storm had kept most of the townsfolk at home, and he had had only a few patrons the night before. Their room hadn't been cheap if Ordella's quiet griping had been any indication, but she didn't seem too bothered now as both she and Oeia were clutching steaming mugs of some dark frothy beverage.

Re: Sibling Rivarly (Feris)

'I guess the white scenery from the window should've tipped me off.' Oria thought glumly walking back to her room laying her weapon aside her sisters. She returned downstairs getting a look at the odd bunch of adventures who seemed to be here all to reluctantly. Oria eyes darted over to the old inn keep thinking about if she should get something to drink too, she didn't feel at all parched so she dismissed the notion. She started approaching her sisters trying to pass all the other patrons without catching their attention.

Yet when she crossed the dark man with the colorful garb something inside her stirred. She had always prided herself on sensing out the evil in people even if around 90% of the time she was dead wrong, leaving her sister Oeia to sooth over the offended, while Ordella scolded her on making such baseless accusations. 'No I can feel it! He's got something! But I don't want to be scolded again...What do I do...I know! I'll be real quiet about it.' She thought innocently assuming the man maybe wouldn't be offended if she just made the accusation quietly instead of blasting it like 'Your hiding something evil-doer!'.

She quietly moved astride the man and whispered "Hey your not planning anything bad are you?" She asked the man trying to phrase her question in a way not to offend him.

Moving towards the Anudorian man in colorful garb, he looked surprised when she made her accusation, veiled beneath a question. Indeed, he seemed surprised to be addressed at all, his tone puzzled as he muttered something in his native tongue which Oria couldn't understand. It seemed to take him a moment to figure out the meaning of her words, however, and Ordella and Oeia looked over just in time to see his expression darken into a scowl. He muttered something else in Anudorian before spitting in heavily accented Crolian; "Fuck off and mind your own business."

Her siblings began to shift, preparing to intervene, but the foreigner stood up and walked off, leaving them to walk over to Oria smirking knowingly. "Smooth," Ordella remarked dryly. "Who did you insult this time?" Oeia asked, concerned.

Re: Sibling Rivarly (Feris)

'That wasn't a no!' Oria thought, smirking at the man's possible admittance to her accusation. She readily prepared to follow suite with another until she heard her sisters words, blood freezing at Ordella's most of all. "Um I...Well...He..." She mumbled trying to find the words to defend herself but it was hard knowing who she was speaking too.

"I just asked if he was planning anything bad...I didn't call him anything like last time..."She finally admitted explaining her actions probable confusing the other patrons and making her sisters possibly wroth. Since Ordella had told her constantly to ignore the feeling she got at these moments. "Yet he didn't say No or how dare you! Which means!" She began to say excitedly but when she met Ordella's eyes, her words again began to falter and she went quiet. Knowing of the scolding to come or maybe her sisters would take her seriously like the first two times that ended up a disasterous waste of time in Ordella's words.

"You what? You don't.... Uck, Oria!" Oeia asked, annoyed, before turning to the man who was growing increasingly annoyed at Oria's presence. "Please, forgive my sister," she said, turning to the angry man, "she's not really... Good with people. She didn't mean any harm, she was just-" Oeia was cut off from her apologetic waffling by the man that Oria had addressed her question to, who loudly said; "Just fuck off, the lot of you! I've had it up to here with you witless Crolian cunts! Your father ought to have disciplined you more! Then maybe you'd know your place!"

That made Oeia frown and recoil slightly, and Ordella scowled darkly, but before she or Oria could offer further comment she grabbed them by the arm and simply pulled them away. The man got up and left the common room, heading for the stairs, and once he was out of earshot Oeia sighed deeply and settled into a chair. The other guests and the innkeeper had turned to stare at the exchange, but they all turned back to their own thoughts and business as things settled down again.

"Oria.... What have we told you about this?" Oeia said with a sigh, "you don't just... Go around harassing people like that! Not on a baseless hunch!" Ordella, though still frowning in the direction that the man had gone, nodded and said; "Yeah... He was an ass, but you didn't even know that until you started interrogating him. You seem to think that about damn near everyone... You've gotta keep it together sis!"

Re: Sibling Rivarly (Feris)

Oria scowled at his outburst readying herself for a flurry of retorts! "Well you-Hey!" Yet before any could be made both she and Ordella had been pulled away by Oeia. Leaving the man to withdraw to his quarters upstairs. As the trio sat down in their little area Oria noticed the glares she got from both her sisters. 'Oh dear...This is gonna hurt...' Was the last thought before the tongue lashing began.

This time however Oeia and Ordella scolded together giving Oria little room to even consider a defense. Her head continued to get lower and lower as the scolding continued it's assault until her self esteem was all but demolished. She'd love to say it will never happen again but she couldn't bring herself to do so and it would also be a lie. This sensing of hers was the only weapon against the dark forces that sought to harm the innocent and her sisters. The only talent she had they'll protect them and possibly prevent another massacre like in her village. Though that man didn't possessive the malevolent aura of the demons that ravaged her hometown she was suspicious of any aggressive aura that passed her path. Though she managed to ignore the smaller ones for her sisters sake, ones that she felt of darker design she tried to approach but was always stopped by her sisters before she could even investigate it.

"Ugh...I know...Sorry..." Were the only words she kept repeating quietly as her head was hung low, whimpering like a puppy who had disappointed her owner. This is how the scolding ended usually Oria would apologize but never swear to do it again. It was her fight against the forces unseen, and would do all she could to keep her sisters far from it.

(Whimper like a beaten bitch~)

Seeing her so disheartened, Oeia's scowl softened into a simple frown, and ultimately she let out her frustration with Oria in the form of a deep, extended sigh while Ordella continued to stare in the direction that the Anudorian man had gone. "Just... Try to keep those feelings to yourself, alright? Or at least just come to us first before... Confronting anyone?" she requested once again, an old request that Oria had heard more or less every time she pulled one of these stunts.

"Go get something to eat," Ordella said, passing Oria a pair of silver coins, "what's left of breakfast is in the kitchen. The innkeeper said you can have as much as you want of the leftovers, just give him these."

Should she follow her sisters instructions and hand the innkeeper the coins, Oria would find that her options were sadly limited. A pair of cool sausages were sitting on a piece of greasy cloth, a pot of porridge that was mostly empty, a pair of thick white rolls, some apple slices, and a small pastry covered in blue sugary stuff was all that was left. She could also pour herself a glass of milk or water to accompany the sparse meal, as there was plenty of dishware on hand for her to use, and she could eat alone in here or out in the common room with everyone else.

 

[Feris]

Re: Sibling Rivarly (Feris)

"Alright sisters..." She replied still reeling from the scolding, raising herself up to move over to where the inn keeper was. She quickly exchanged the coins for some grub. Unfortunately it was rather small. 'One of those days ugh...' Oria thought bitterly grabbing what was left on the sparse platter and a glass of water, moving to join her sisters in the common room.

She sat right next to Ordella, trying to enjoy what could barely be called breakfast. 'Mmm not enough...No use complaining now though, just gotta suck it up Oria!' Oria thought went trying to ignore her stomach griming for more substance. She leaned her body against side of Ordella's trying to stay a bit warmer and pass the time until the storm possible ceased.

Ordella and Oeia would be uncharacteristically quiet as Oria rejoined them and ate her sparse meal, the food decent if not amazing despite being somewhat aged. The other patrons and the innkeeper were no less laconic, leaving the common room silent save for the creaking of the wood and the howling of the storm. The morning would pass without event, Ordella seemingly napping while Oeia opened a map and started looking over it, marking points on it and apparently planning their route North for when the storm finally let up. The weather was not to cooperate that day, it seemed, as by midday it showed no signs of letting up, and ultimately Ordella rose and stretched, sighing.

"Looks like we're not leaving today," she said, and without looking up from her work Oeia replied; "It's no surprise. We were warned about the weather up here." Letting out another sigh, Ordella glanced at Oria, "Wanna go try and find something to do in town? At the very least we could build a snowman or something." Oeia frowned, "doesn't she have something she should be studying? Her education was a little haphazard."

 

[Feris]

Re: Sibling Rivarly (Feris)

Oria awoke from her daze at Ordella suggestion perking up her head. "Sure sis! Let's go-" Yet before they could take off Oeia had put something more indoor friendly on the table. "Guh...I think I know enough to get by..." Oria defended her intelligence, though if any knew her brain better than her it'd be these two. They were after all her teachers, after they returned to the village. Oria's intelligence since then had improved substantially from what was offered in town. Though she was still far off from their level or any academic major.

Oeia simply frowned, her lips pouting in annoyance, and Ordella simply swept Oria out the door. A blast of frigid wind hit them as they left the tavern, but they had acquired warmer clothing for this trip and it was bearable. Ordella hastily put on her woolen gloves and hat, both knitted by Oeia and died red to match their clothes, and glanced around with a smirk on her face despite the strong winds and deluge of snow that was already piling up on their clothing and steadily turning them white.

The town was covered in a thick blanket of white, and no one seemed to be about save for those who had tasks that needed to be done, snow or no snow. "Over there! That looks like a good pile!" Ordella said, pointing to a big pile up of snow between a pair of buildings. She walked over to it, trudging through knee deep snow, "we can start here! Get rolling, we've got to make the bottom first!"

Re: Sibling Rivarly (Feris)

Oria cringed at Oeia's glance and even felt a ting of guilt. Yet before any of that could be taken into greater detail, Oria was swept away by Ordella to the chilling cold outside. Despite the freezing cold winds Oria found herself rather determined helping her elder sister roll and form up the snowman. Soon they had the basic frame of the snowman though how should they decorate him? Oria turned to her sister all bright eyed. "I think we should make him look fierce to scare away the storm!" She suggested while gathering up the sticks and stones they'd need for him.

It was a childish notion that such a thing could come to pass over just building a snowman. Yet one Oria was happy to make regardless!

(Suggest the type of snowman and roll for miracle?) XD

"Yeah! Lets do it!" Ordella replied intensely, pumping her fist into the air. "I'll go and get some of those icicles for teeth and pointy bits! You go find some nice big sticks for arms! Oooh, oooh, and then we need to find some stones for the eyes!" she said, before dashing off, leaving Oria to fend for herself in the frigid storm. There weren't exactly many trees in the village itself, especially not with large branches for her to use, but that didn't mean she couldn't find any. She would just have to go out into the woods bordering the town to the West, where there were plenty of fine old trees that could afford to spare a couple of branches for her and her sister's amusing pastime.

 

[Feris]

Re: Sibling Rivarly (Feris)

Finding a few small rocks was the easy yet she found the town devoid of any loose wood or even sticks. 'Guess the townsfolk gathered what they could without traveling too far.' She thought glumly picking up the last stone she needed. She did remember the woods nearby when she and her sisters were on their way to this town. It was a small trek however and Oria felt she wasn't as good with geography as her sisters. However letting down her big sister Ordella made backing out a great nono!

Oria voyaged west to the edge of the woods hopefully arriving without incident. Once she did Oria would start gathering whatever twigs she could find posthaste!

Heading out of town and into the woods, Oria was just finding a few good sticks when she heard something odd upon the winds. At first it might have simply been just that, the howling of the winds, but then picked out a soft chant, a lovely voice that made her body freeze up, made her mind focus on it. It was difficult to pick out, distant, but then she heard a second voice dancing beside the first, every note making her mind sing with a pleasant sense of utter relaxation. She felt a soft tug to get closer to the source, deeper in the woods, to find what was making the lovely chanting that was just barely flitting through her ears. She had to hear it better, more clearly, but as alluring as that compulsion might be she could resist it and continue on, taking her branches with her to finish building the snowman.

 

[Feris]

Re: Sibling Rivarly (Feris)

"Well that should do it...huh?" Oria said picking up the last stick needed for the snowman until she heard the voice. Turning toward the direction of where it was coming, slowly stepping forward toward it until she caught herself and stopped completely. 'Weird...Why was I walking...Oh a voice...' She thought briefly before continuing to walk toward the singing voice. She continued to stop a few times going in and out of whatever trance that captivated her. Yet she couldn't gather her thoughts enough to have the wits to leave.

Trudging deeper into the forest with the sticks and black stones for the snowman, she drew close to the voice.

Drawn deeper into the woods, the hold on Oria grew stronger and stronger as the twin voices grew louder in her ears. The sweet music flitted through the woods, into her mind, creating a rhythm that her steps naturally adopted. It let her walk through the woods, even laden with her minor burdens, with surprising speed. The need to find the source of the sweet music grew stronger by the minute, and a few moments later a harp joined the mix, underpinning the two chanting voices and enhancing the effect even further.

Eventually, she broke through a stand of pines, walking down a path seemingly paved by lain stones, and entered into a small glade. The storm was softer here, the lightest of snowfalls that left only a thin layer crunching beneath her feet, and through that thin layer rose wildflowers of every color imaginable, a layer of them coming up to her waist. At the center of the glade stood a small boulder, and on it sat the three loveliest women that Oria had ever seen.

Each was possessed of pale blue skin, unnatural but lovely nonetheless, like fresh ice perfectly sculpted. Darker blue hair ran down to their lower backs in straight lines, save for the woman in the center who had curly locks of pure white. All three were naked completely but seemingly unconcerned with that fact, and the air around Oria felt warm and pleasant. Clothes were not needed here she realized suddenly, were even a hindrance to enjoying the pleasantness of the place onto which she had stumbled, and she was compelled to join the trio. On either side of the rock, sitting on it and facing away from the center, were the darker haired women, very similar in appearance with soft curves and hourglass figures, chanting out into the woods with eyes closed and soft smiles on their faces. In the center, farthest from Oria and kneeling on the boulder, was the third, the one with white hair, the one with the fullest figure, who was steadily stringing the harp.

The three produced a lovely tune, and the urge for Oria to join the trio was almost overwhelming, to indulge in the pleasant music, to enjoy it for hours on end in the company of the gorgeous trio.

Re: Sibling Rivarly (Feris)

Paradise...That is what she beheld within this place. She wanted to strip away all her clothes, worries, pains and join in the bliss of the song. As she brought her right hand to grab the center of her warm garb to start to strip her left rose out of protest. 'No...I want to join them...don't stop me.' Her mind protested the sudden reaction. However when her eyes got a better look of the naked pale women and the rest something seemed to stir in the back of her mind. 'They are different...Those that are different cannot bring us happiness!' An odd voice that wasn't hers replied in the corner of her mind. It brought her back to senses though only briefly.

Acting on it Oria closed her eyes and used both hands to clasp around her ears drowning down the noise. It still wasn't enough however the song still echoed in her mind and it's volume though quieted still was gaining power fast. She tried to speak, to shout, anything to interrupt it's rhythm but the song muddled her mind. Digging deep she could only recall the word her eldest sister said to a group of unruly mercenaries. Grasping it she tried to bring it to her throat to shout!
