Sute the Witch
Sute blinked at the boy, who was quite forward. Shaking his hand carefully, she noticed how similar their hands were in size but not in texture. Hers were much rougher and scarred. Suddenly feeling a tad more self conscious, she slid her hand back and let it twist in the fabrics that covered her legs. Never had someone, let alone a male, influence her that much. She must be spending too much time alone and it's affecting her mentally. Yes, that was it.
"Ah! Well, that makes them easy to find, my dear boy! Messy red hair and pink hair, not all too common in Taakeira, but you never know, human child. But I will need a safer place to search. Shall we head back to the city and take it from there? Sute, we have the coins to buy a room or two no?" The girl flicked the coin purse and a nice jingle followed. "Excellent! Now all we'll want to do now is head back!" Sute nodded in agreement before she twitched at a rustle in the bush. Looking at Cole, she could only imagine how little he knew of fighting. Never one to underestimate but she didn't like innocents getting hurt. She was an innocent at one point, scorned for something she couldn't help. Her need not only fight but protect the strange boy for now, grew.
So when the large warboar crashed through the leaves, she quickly tackled Cole out of the way, a soft and quiet growl escaping her usually silent lips. Getting off him, she glared at the snorting animal and raised one hand. A dark, sickly essence filled her hand, slithering off and down her arm. A fear magic that she used often to escape when killing wasn't an option. Zelig only watched calmly from her shoulder and she evaded the boar's second charge and slammed her hand onto the snout and eyes of the beast, barely missing the large set of quad horns. The monster squealed and bucked trying to remove a phantom menace. Spotting their chance to flee, she grabbed Cole by the hand and began to run towards the city, mentally cursing the gods that she had to use magic in front of a person who could tell someone from Gar, even if he had no idea that he held that power.
