The girl adjusted her strips of fabric she called clothes, it was the remains of a flame retardant blanket, it seemed to be the only thing she could wear for long periods of time without it going up in flames. She wondered what the day had in store for her, she was a loner, she always had been.
Ahura took a moment to ponder what all he would do today. Travel? Nah, he did plenty of that yesterday...Do more and he would be completely exhausted by noon. Might as well take it easy and meet new people. Pupiless eyes gazed at the trees in front of him. "Hmm...I wonder if there are any travelers who could direct me to the next civilization..." He states plainly and to himself. Another breeze grazes his skin and the human begins a great deal of shivering. Shivering turns into shaking as fur covers skin. His bones reorganize themselves into their true spots and wings form on his back. Once the Angha had completely transformed back into his true self, he wandered into the woods.
His eyes were fixated on one point and his wings and long tail dragged the ground. Movements. Lots of movements. "Well...At least I'm not completely alone here..." Some were familiar. A deer, squirrels, birds...Just your average everyday animals. But some weren't. These unfamiliar vibrations had to be other people. He just knew it. "I wonder where I'll head to first..." There was an abundance of vibrations coming from the NorthWest. Plus his nose smelt the familiar smell of cooking meat. "Hmm...I'll go here first then." With that said, he bolts toward the direction of food. His hind legs kicking up dirt an rocks as his claws scraped the ground. A sudden thought came to mind and he wasted little time in voicing it out. "I just hope this community would be ever so kindly. I'd hate to run into an adversary..." He states as he makes his way through the brush and approaches the camp.
Zella stopped sparring when she got bored. She wanted an actual partner not water spawns that she quickly killed. She sighed then dived into the water again searching for fish. When she found enough she cam back on shore and her form became human again. She started eating the fish raw when something took her food. She jumped up and shot a blast of water at it and used the water around it picking it up and throwing it around. She finally put it back down and laughing. She pat the serpent on the head as it put the fish back, taking one to eat for itself.
Lodan could feel the activity growing around him. He sighed and jumped off of the building. He walked around for a while. Then he saw a girl in barley anything. He became worried then realized he couldn't see an aura from her. He could see many large dark spirits around her though. He walked over to her slowly before he realized that she was a demon. He smiled to himself before speaking up. "Sorry to bother you but I became worried when I couldn't see the aura of your spirit. Now I know why."
His energy ran out sooner than he thought and he became unable to continue flying normally that wouldn't has been a problem but this time he was flying higher than it would have been advisable and when he got tired began a free fall, he was forced to stop a few feet above the ground by transforming in fairy, because the reputation the fairies had he was trying to avoid changing in that form.
His blond hair grew and turned silver, his ears were more pointed and some weird mark appeared on his face, the good thing was that his height didn't change and his wings weren't like the butterfly although resembled those of another insect, fly was natural in that form si he landed softly near the camp and turned back to his human form, it wasn¡t very manly but at least still alive.
Garm, the Ice Wolf and his protector came to him running, he was following throughout the path, the boy walked towards the cabin and took something to eat.
"Sorry to bother you but I became worried when I couldn't see the aura of your spirit. Now I know why." He said. She flashed him one of her award winning smiles. She tossed back her white mane as she laughed.
"Intresting, those eyes of yours. Can you see my linage from all the way over there?" She had a small animal in her hand she had grabbed earlier with a shadow cage. She was slowly roasting it in her hands.
"You can come closer, I don't bite," Her voice was smooth and creamy, seductive. She patted the ground beside her inviting him to come sit.
"I don't call myself anything really, you can call me Faron." She smiled to play it off but she was a little ashamed of her heritage. Her powers were dark and terrifying, and she could easily destroy almost any life around her.
"Are you hungry fox-boy?" she gave him a seductive smile. "If that is what you call yourself." she used his own words against him in a playful manner, offering him some of her food.
He stops in front of the cabin and takes some of the fresh meat. Before leaving, he digs through a small bag strapped to his side and pulls out some silver coins for the chef. He knew he didn't live here and taking food just for the entire day, maybe two, just didn't feel right to him. Plus, the food that he takes decreases the amount for others. Ahura just thought that it was just an act of generosity. I mean...These people needed money...right? On further thought, he had no idea what these people used for currency. Maybe they just traded kills? If so, then Ahura will surely hold up his end of the bargain when the time comes for him to leave. For now, he thought he would just converse with the locals.
Ahura sat down, making himself comfy before tearing off pieces of the meat and hungrily gulping them down. After the carrion was finished, he got up, walking over to just about any direction he pleased. After a couple of minutes of walking, his face collided with the wall of the cabin he was sure he got his food from. He yelps slightly and holds his nose in pain. "Ouch..." He mumbles before spreading his wings and gently flying off of the ground and onto the lodges roof. He rest his head on his paws, curling his peacock tail over his legs and his wings over his face. A little afternoon nap wouldn't hurt a thing...
Rilletta had not seen another being - other than her sea creatures - in what felt like eternity. Then again, time passed differently in the ocean. A year for her could be decades for the mortals. Opening her mouth, the most enchanting voice spilled from her lips. She sang and her voice echoed throughout a large expanse, drawing people to her. Rilletta was oh so very lonely in the ocean. She was all alone and she wanted company in the waters. Her voice was the most beautiful sound, it was more alluring than the greatest of singers for Rilletta was a Siren with beauty beyond compare and a voice more melodic and lilting than that of a thousand angels.
Her sadly enchanting voice reached the land and the skies. From her lips her voice was the dawning and setting of the sun, moonlight and honey from a forbidden fruit in a mystical land. Come to me. Her naked body, though made of liquid, appeared solid as it glowed with something more than human. She was a beacon for all sailors, for beings of the sky and land. Those who heard her voice would drown to reach her or live in misery without the enchantment of her Siren Song should they survive. Rilletta's voice was haunting and filled with tragedy. Help me. In a voice sweeter than nectar, she sang of the Snow Maiden.
In a dried land, namely, at the ends of a red scorching hell
There was a mansion made from ice.
And I strongly wish to tell you an ancient story about it.
That mansion was cursed because of the ice.
There was an strong seal put over it.
And in one room of that mansion, a girl of ice was locked up.
The girl was completely alone.
Until a day, by pure chance, she was surprised when a boy that lived traveling opened the doors of the ice mansion.
The eyes of the boy reflected the sad expression that the ice girl had,
so the boy decided that he had to help the girl.
The girl thought, "I am very glad that you have talked to me..."
But her icy face couldn't speak.
The girl rejoiced, "I am so glad that you are here with me..."
However, her icy face couldn't smile.
Once the icy girl felt the warmth of the boy, she melted into water.
Then, the water soared as if it had wings, and returned to the heavens.
In a dried land, namely, at the ends of a red scorching hell
The voices of joy resounded.
And I strongly wish to tell you an ancient story about it.
The girl that returned to the heavens became rain, and fell over the land.
It was a great, great blessing.
And in the middle of that rain of joy, the boy left that village.
Once he realized that the body of the girl had become that rain, the boy became greatly saddened.
And then, he departed on a journey to find the heart of his lost girl.
Completely alone.
The girl thought, "I am very glad that you have talked to me..."
But her watery face couldn't speak.
For the sake of her boy, the girl was glad to become the rain, and downpour over the land.
However, her watery face couldn't smile.
Once the icy girl felt the warmth of the boy, she melted into water.
Then, the water soared as if it had wings, and returned to the heavens.
"Thank you for loving me so much."
The girl was very glad to have become a blessing for the boy,
and she smiled for the first time.
The frozen heart of the girl turned into water when she felt warmth.
And maybe that was because the tears the boy shed for her were very warm.
Rilletta had been water for so long - she no longer remembered how to turn her body into flesh and bone. She did not even remember what legs looked like. But Rilletta sang and she hoped someone would come save her. With kaleidoscope eyes, she looked to the Heavens - and sang.

Golith was flying over a dense forest when he heard a sirens call. Normally he would have ignored the song but there was a deep sadness to it and he felt compelled to investigate. Flying low over the forest he landed on a beach. Looking around he spotted a figure. Taking on his human form he walked over to it and recognized the curved features of a women maid of water. Finally standing before her he asked, “Why sing such a sad song to attract others to you?” In his experience most sirens would sing a joyful tune to fill there victims with a light hearted feeling just before they were brought to a watery grave.
"Sasye irs ween gat guol roon yanje," she sang. In one room of that mansion, a girl of ice was trapped. "Ar sasye." The girl was completely alone.
“Why sing such a sad song to attract others to you?”
Abruptly, the Siren silenced herself. There was an eerie quiet after, as the waves crashed against the shore and the Girl made of water regarded the Boy who was a dragon. Rilletta parted her lips to speak but her being of water could not speak and even if it could, she did not remember how. Singing was very much different from speaking. Rilletta did not understand why the boy had not yet come to her. He had heard her song, he should be wading through the water to reach her by now. With sad kaleidoscope eyes, she drifted forward, her torso made of oceans gliding forward like a wave. Except she was not a wave, she was a beautiful creature made of waves. Rilletta drifted forward until she was close to the shore but still, too far away.
I do not know how to be a human, she wanted to say. The Siren wanted the dragon who could transform into a boy to teach her how. I cannot speak.
"Ri-let-ta," she said carefully. She nodded proudly and she wished to smile but her watery face could not. It was hard to see her, as she was see-through but if you tried hard enough, you could see the unusual shapes of floating water that made her. Rilletta had a small, upturned nose and full lips. Her kaleidoscope eyes were the most noticeable feature of hers, being large and bright. Her long hair was a waterfall down her slim back. "Rilletta," she repeated.
Rilletta wanted to tell the boy she sang sad songs because she could not bring herself to sing anything but. Sirens sang the truth and Rilletta was sad and very lonely. She did not know if the boy who was a dragon would understand what she meant by 'Rilletta' but she was happy that she could at least say her name. "I am-" she paused, unsure of what word came next. "Siren." Rilletta had a unique and otherworldly accent. It was unusual but melodic and feminine.
"You," she said in her lilting voice as she pointed at the red-eyed boy. "are bird." She reached her hand through the water and when she pulled her slim fingers out, a small dragon swam into the sky from the surface of the water. Rilletta was very proud of herself for speaking so many complicated words.
"Come," she lilted, pulling a little further backwards into the ocean with her arms held out towards the pale haired boy. "Was yea ra yor pagle."
I am very glad you have spoken to me.

Just as quickly as it had started teh singing stopped. There was a long pause while Roth continued to wait as he retuned his mandolin
"Well that is disappointing," he said as he had only gotten through a couple verses. He shrugged and took another bite of the apple and slowly floated, more or less in the same direction. Roth hummed the verses he had heard and replayed the tune.
The sound returned but it was shorter. Almost like conversing. Roth knew many magical languages but he was too far to make out any of it. A book appeared before Roth titled 'Magical songs of the Magical World' He read the floating book as he followed the lilting voice in the distance.
"Not a harpy," he noted as he was heading towards the sea. Roth was no idiot but he did know he didn't know this language so he magicked another book before him. "How to speak Siren/Mermaid: Coral Reef Dialect and More!"

“So that is your name, my name is Golith,” he said as he watched the girl try and talk. From the looks of it she had forgotten how. As she continued to try and speak she named herself a siren, and named him a bird. Golith looked at those kaleidoscope eyes, something about them hinted that she wished to say more. They almost pleaded with him. She stepped back a bit and held out her arms, inviting him into the water. He held no fear of the water and so he walked into the crashing waves. He stared into those eyes again. They spoke volumes, they showed sadness and a deep want of something but he still could not tell what it was. “What do you need,” he said, “If there is anything I can do I would be willing to help.” He realized he was waste deep in the water now and vernable if she decided to stay true to a sirans nature and drag him to an early grave. He could hold his breath for almost indefinitely but still he couldn’t actually breathe underwater.
Scarny heard the a faint tune then soon after she felt the earth change. It confused her and the confusion transfered to her dragon who rose it head also confused. She could not tell why the earth suddenly changed. She rose and climbed onto the dragon. They shot into the air and she looked around to see how much had changed. It wasn't a large bit just around the lake. She flew over top and landed silently near the lake. She watched things unfold.
Zella saw the shape of the water take a form and became confused. She looked at the serpent who looked at her questioning why she put that there. "I didn't do it you big lug." She told him then got up leaving the fish for him to eat. She came closer and saw it was a siren. Then she saw the unfortunate victim and pushed him back on shore using the waves. She ran over and held her trident, now in full Undine from, at the siren. "Back away Siren! You are not taking another victim anytime soon! These are my waters!"
Ahura nods slowly. The explanation lacked a bit of detail behind it, but he didn't say anything. Everyone around here didn't even know who he was. How were they to know that he was blind?
"I have never seen you around before."
Ahura's face immediately washes over from a quirky grin to a more serious look. "My apologies madam. It seems I've forgot to introduce myself. You see, I'm but a small traveler. I trek from place to place, meeting knew people, learning knew things, then I go in search of another place willing to accept me in their domain." Ahura clears his throat. "My name is Ahura Mazda." He gives a slight bow of his head. "And what is your name miss..." He says with curious iris's that still seemed to drift upon the lake and onto the commotion.
