ROLEPLAY HQ - my-dear-princess

@Ruvik the Unchained Predator

The golden morning, baptised by the sun and the sweet spots of the star that was the centre of the known universe, trickled out threads of gold as sumptuous as the hay that one could turn into the priceless element. She had been thinking of weaving and tapestries and how the world needed to be filled least it turned into a void. Anahita Usoro, aged 30, with a slightly chubby waist, nice hips and upper body and soft arms and legs, looked quite pretty in the sun. It was one of the kindest things her first husband had ever told her when he was alive. When he had waiting for her hand and she had to accept out of royal duty. She had felt he could have been a good man when he had stated these words. Only to be disappointed by an empty marriage bed and holy nights, when the moon pouring in was her only company and the only way she would feel less lonely. Personifying the cradling rock of waves as a Haloed Angel visiting her for a confessional bathed in light. Pining for a husband who did not love her and would rather bed the more slender and brash maids of the palace and the quixotic ladies of the court. The noble man died in battle, selling wears and become a demonic sacrifice. Anahita had heard the news from a messenger, who had been fever sprung for a day and a half, and still worse off until he was roused to tell the tale. They had burned most of his body, not his head, which they later, after eating his charred remains, decided to crack the skull open and leave it out as a scarecrow to feed the carrion birds of prey. People had expected her to weep and she did, for such a horrible death she could not have wished on her worst enemy. Though, he had been one of her worst enemies — always yelling at her, slapping her when he thought was fit, saying as a wife she wagged her tongue too much. She had lived in marital hell but most of her relatives, aside her mother, told her to endure. For she was a princess, and princess were meant to endure. Anahita had been

widowed when she was twenty-five and since then she had stayed widowed. Marital prospects had been slim as she was the eccentric princess whose former husband before death did them part, would sap

on rumours and tell everyone she was a freak of nature and her nurture as princess was the only saving grace she had possessed. Her name in courts had been sullied and more so due to the economy of infidelity her husband had kept and wrought. She could not have boded well after so much and so she had lived a quiet life. Full of self imposed exile and celibacy, as reminders of intimacy were heralding the dreadnaught of betrayal. However, Anahita was a young woman of so many thoughts and ideas, a creativity that could bring a joy to the sun. She had never been seemingly frail or weak, never had been so damsel like in her actions. She was not dainty, as full of face she was full of life and adventure followed in her veins as adrenaline. It did not make her seem lady-like. One day, she and a cousin were walking near a beach when a large snake appeared and bit her petrified cousin. Anahita ran around distracting the snake with tremors in the sand and killed it with her slingshot as it got too angry seeing the dust her cousin kicked up. The snake was a large cobra and many were impressed. Not her relatives as much, for this proved to them she was more charismatic peasant than elite princess. It was these episodes that made her at times repress her body's need for the wild and untamed. She was the one who could speak to wild horses and tame most of them. She ran with the Peacocks and Ostriches in the palace grounds. She had bonded with a White Fox named Tule and a Llama she named Jezebel. She even had a goat named Morse who was a pygmy Billy goat and entertained the fox and befriended the Llama. Anahita was bred for the hills, the valleys, the mountains and the vast expanse of the wild. She was not a princess for palace walls and yet entombed there she was, without much love for her and more chagrin at her existence. One thing she had entertained, is she now had a choice. Anahita had known that being thirty and widowed came with many disadvantages in prosp

02:28

ects of marriage. Yet, it also came with opportunities and boons one could not ignore. Now, she could, without a doubt, entertain a life with a Chivalric Knight — the one meant to come here today, in the palaces, after defeating the Demon King, whose hordes were responsibility for the murder of her first husband. There was jubilation all around as the Demonic wars were finally finding an end. All her adult life, she had been witnesses to deaths from all around due to the raiding demons hellbent to conquer the continent of her origin. Though, Anahita was an afterthought in the festivities that trailed everything. She was an older, widowed princess and some of her cousins were younger. They had all decided they would try for the hand of one of the Group of Knights who had felled the Demon hordes closest to the King and one of the Kings himself. When she had voiced to meet them they had spoke of her ill as if her experience was merely sexual seduction and none of beauty and personality and a wisdom she could offer. Anahita quietened, as she could see her desires were yet again, relegated to the pavillion of broken dreams. She was lesser than an afterthought and more of a burden. She wondered which was worse and what could be done. Deep in thought, a few tears came out. Would she always be in the peripheries of happiness? Could she never be truly united with an equal? Someone who understood her and did not think her odd and stupid. Who did consider her a lady despite her interests and her need to be in nature. She could only sob. The world was unfair and she had no way of knowing any form of bliss with the mores and conducts within these walls. What could she do? Did she need to play the victim to get her prize? Did she need to be saved by saviour to savour all the symmetries of sensuousness?

02:28

Was her sexuality only valid when she was virginal and untouched? What was the harm in wanting? Why was she lesser? In her tears, she wanted an answer. @Candy no party

"Sigh.... These humans only seek one thing and only one thing, destruction of our land. They want to take away every piece of land that belongs to us and turn it into their farmlands, new castles for their wars and in the end, the complete annihilation of our kind." Those were the words of the Demon King Aliastor. He knew well what this all was always about. They threw some brave knight at the front lines and asked them to beat through the Demon defence lines and get and face off in a duel the Demon King. And sure enough another brave soldier was preparing to achieve this "heroic" breakthrough the front lines. As the battle was continuing Aliastor was visited by his brother Daimon, who felt concerned about this process. "I see you Daimon. What is it that you want to talk about in the middle of a battle?" As Aliastor was sitting at the throne room, in this enclosed empty room, that extended over a 100 meters, Daimon was entering the main entrance door to see his brother. He was walking through the carpet that was laid out from the main entrance door, up until the throne room, that had a huge engraving of a serpent dragon, standing besides the Demon King, giving this appearance that the Demon King's back is always guarded by the serpent. From the both sides of the hallway, pillars were evenly spaced out, but behind them was an empty darkness, one where the moonlight couldn't reach from the top dome that was extended from the entrance of the room to the throne. In this sort of rectangular form that illuminated the already dark room. At the very throne room there were two long candle sticks with 3 candles lit for each showing the throne in all it's glory. This inviting scene was leading the Demon boy Daimon up to his dear older brother who was sitting and waiting for something. As if he was waiting for his impending doom. He rested his head on his right hand and on the left hand was holding a glass of wine.

"Mine own lief broth'r! what is't yond both'rs thy mind?" This made Aliastor chuckle a bit and he responded that it's not how he wants to communicate. "hehe. I've been practising. Thou must know that some words are good for good o'l conversation in thy mother language. Though she art not my mother. I still respect thy love for thee mother nonetheless." Daimon took a few more steps and then looked up in the sky that was shining through the dome. It was then when he realised that the time was not the brightest. "Thou must fight off the humans my dearest brother! Thou must not fall!"

"SILENCE!" Aliastor stood up and walked up to his younger brother and looked him dead in the eyes. "Thou must understand why this war is not in thy nor my nor the interest of the demon kind." Aliastor calmed down a bit and then looked for a safe place. "Thru must understand that this has to end someday. I must try and talk with the brave knight they will send to see me.... I am tired. Whatever happens. Don't do anything harsh. Just stay there and once this is over you will know what to do." Aliastor then used his magic spell and threw Daimon up in the ceiling and locked in a spiritual cage, where no sound could come out of him but Daimon could see everything just perfectly fine and hear everything just as well. What was his brother thinking to do right now was not clear to Daimon, but all he could do was watch as his brother sat back down the throne and picked back up in his arm the very glass of wine. It was at that moment when the main hall door was kicked open by a brave knight who extended his sword and walked up to the Demon King. The knight proclaimed as he walked forward "Demon King! Your treachery ends here. Give up now or die a painful death!" Demon King on the other hand was not amused. He just waved at the brave knight and then in an amplified voice said "Isn't it a modest practice to start thy battle with the conversation. Thou must know that thy predecessor hath cometh here 5 years ago and hath not been killed by my hand."

09:00

The brave knight stopped in his steps and then stared at the Demon King as he was standing up from his throne and approached the knight, while still holding up the glass of wine in his hand calmly. "Thy predecessor hath cometh here and listened to my plea to stop this nonsense. Thou must know that if thou won't cometh back and hath died, then the war will go on for next 5 years. Thy King has planned this though. If thru cometh back to the front lines, thy king will punish thee and kill thou in a horrible way. Then thy king shall say that thee were killed by the Demons and thy ashes shall be eaten by my demons. Here, take this drink and then thru and I shall cometh to the table and talk thy situation." The Brave knight had listened and then laughed to himself. "Wouldst thou shutteth the FUCK up? I don't care who is right who is wrong!" The knight says as he runs up to the demon king and pierces his heart with the sword. To this Demon King just looked in the eyes of the brave knight and said. "I see... you are looking only for fame and glory." The Demon king was not resisting, he was only holding onto the glass of wine which he wanted to give to the knight in a kind gesture. But as the moments passed, he couldn't stand on his feet anymore. Last thing he could see was his brother looking at him with horror in his eyes as all of sudden the world around him began to spin around.

Aliastor the King of Demons was killed in the palace. As the knight had cut off the head of the Demon king, the palace began to crumble and shake. This scared the knight as he wanted to have his glory alive so he took the head and his sword and ran out of the palace. As he had exited the palace, hundreds of demons left the battlefield and were entering the throne room, to be greeted by the sight of the late Demon king's headless body laying on the ground still holding onto the glass of wine, which by now was spilled on the floor. At this stage the Demon King's spell had lost its power and let Daimon fall down on the floor where everyone saw him. All demons were clueless of what is going to become of them now. Some screamed revenge on the human king while others calmly waited for Daimon to say something. After all he was next in line to become the Demon King. "Brothers and Sisters. Today thy King hast perished. We must honour his wish of peace and prosperity. But before that let the humans leave the battle field and celebrate their small victory while we must grieve the loss of our loving King." These words were anonymously accepted among the demons who all gathered around Daimon, who was walking up to the corpse of his brother and held it in his arms. Mourning his brother's death. Preparations were set for cremation of the Late Demon King which was attended by almost every Demon who wished to pay their respects to one who lead them for over one hundred years. As Daimon was overlooking the ceremony of his brother's farewell he was hatching a plan to seek justice in his brother's name. If these humans seek to take away what's dear to them. Then he shall cometh and take from the humans what's dear to them. He decided that when it's the right time to humiliate knight and rob him of his glory while at the same time take from the humans their last hope of actual glory or victory.

09:01

Two days after the farewell ceremony of his late brother, Daimon gathered his servants and prepared himself to head to the human lands. His plan was simple, head inside the castle and capture the princess of the kingdom. Take her and demand that the brave knight comes and faces him in a duel, where he would defeat him and revenge his brother's death. As Daimon had entered the capital city, the timing couldn't have had been better than he could wish for. The soldiers were returning from the war and the brave knight was in the front, waving his hand and accepting flowers from woman. But he was not there to kill the brave soldier. That would only enhance his glory. What he was there for was to crush the spirit of the entire Kingdom. Daimon had entered the castle keep and ended up in one of the rooms where he noticed a rather beautiful looking lady, who no doubt was a princess. "I have to admit that a princess looks really beautiful in the sun. I think I heard that you want to be captured by someone and have a brave prince come and rescue you. Or maybe that brave knight over there. I can give you this opportunity. Would you accept it or you can't take such stress." Daimon extended his arm and smiled at the princess "Will you come with me? Or you want to stay with thy family. I am not a monster. I can't take anyone without their permission. That is our rule of honour."

Anahita looked at the Knight and realised it was a fool's errand to expect anything from such a man. The Knight was happily accepting such flowers from her younger, unmarried, possibly chaste cousins. Their happiness overflowed with the all admiration and adorations for them. And she, like the maiden of Cinder, swept up ash in the sun. She could not see much anymore as tears wettened her eyes and face: She was coming to the conclusion that life was uncertainly unfair. That there was nothing in it for her aside the humiliating of wanting and never receiving. She could not do anything aside feel like she could just die of boredom. The heat was now not a friend, the sun spots jeered at her. She was alone. She was alone, aside this strange man coming her way. Anahita stared in complete shock as she saw who and what appeared to be a Demon. Crowned with a white head of hair, contrasting with her thick brown, and with horns, curved that would give the Billy goat. Morse, she had a run for his money. Anahita actually wanted to scream. She did not understand how a Demon soldier, Noble, what he was she was not certain, interlope so quickly in the castle? Wait... The Knight was surely brave...but...was she that good? There was not a scratch on him. No mortal injuries. How had he slain The Demon King? If one can so easily come into the palace? Surely, she had not hear of any magical device he had carried with him. The man constantly boasted of his skills but she had not heard him fell a large demon of any kind. Anahita chose her next words carefully, "I do not know why you think so — I cannot trust your intentions. What I want and what I need may not be the same. Also, what I want may not be something I can manage. As you have told me. The stress of all of it could kill me." She took a step back as he extended his hand, "I cannot come with so easily. I do not know your intentions." Though, something about him did seem trustworthy. "Tell me. How did The Demon

09:55

King die? I want to know, did that so-called brave knight over there, cheat?" Anahita speaks confidently and with actual respect, "I am sorry. For I do think it is proper manners to give condolences. I am just curious because the Knight looks unharmed and not really wounded. And you can easily come into my palace. What is going on here? I just wish to know." @Candy no party

Daimon took a few steps back to free the area for princess. "My brother indeed was killed by that knight." Daimon said in a passive voice, but small hint of anger was heard over it as he took a deep breath, not letting Princess say anything else and instead just interrupted her and added to what he had already said to add to what he was saying "He was killed by that knight just as my brother had offered peace talks, without any defence or preparation for a battle,that kngiht had struck my brother down and cut off his head, right after running away like a coward he was." Daimon looked out from the neighbouring window and saw the parade going on. This angered him much as how these humans were celebrating the death of his dear brother while he was sitting there plotting his revenge. "My intentions are clear. I want to bring you to my castle and have you wait there and bait this very knight to rescue you. I must insist that you will have the luxury of having your own room, your own garden, where you can look over flowers and anything you wish for. If you do behave well, you might have the chance to join some hunting seasons when it comes to that time. We treat our so called prisoners with respect. After all that's what a honourable person would do...right?" @Ruvik the Unchained Predator

"Okay, I will go with you. Can I bring my fox, Llama and Billy Goat?" Anahita actually smiled at him. She was happy to go with this demon. "I...I am sorry about The Demon King. If what you say is true. I do want genuine peace between us."| @Candy no party

"Do not worry about your friends princess, I am sure that you will see them sooner than you think. But right now we are running low on time." Daimon says as he grabs princess Anahita's body by her waist and pulls her close to his chest, warping her in his cape to ensure her safety from both the arrows and the elements. Right at that moment he jumped out of the window height in the sky and created an explosion behind them to attack the attention of everyone attending the parade that was meant to mark their victory. But now it was to be their determent and glaring proof of failure. "Besides, I am just alone here. We can't get far away if there's more of us coming along. You are a smart girl." Daimon was gliding down and attracting so much attention around him and the princess making sure that even his Majesty would see what is happening right now. A long trail of smoke was following him as he was landing on the ground where a few soldiers were waiting for him with their spears raised to apply injury. This was nothing for Daimon as he swept them off the road with a single hand gesture and landed on the pebble cobblestone ground, spreading a huge shook-wave around him, making the closest people and knights fall back on their knees "My name is Daimon, the Demon King! I am here to challenge the man who had claimed to kill the Demon King himself. I shall await you at the very place where you had done your.... so called heroic feat and rescue your princess there."

12:16

Daimon looked dead in the eyes of the knight who just thought that he was going to be the hero of the world, yet at that moment he was cautious and tried to keep himself calm, to not make him look like some kind of coward that he really was. Daimon turned around and holding in his hands the princess he started to make his way towards the King who was sitting at the exterior chair, awaiting the caravan with the brave hero. His every step was calm and slow. His stare was one full of arrogance and confidence. A few knights were forming a formation to try and defeat the Demon King Daimon, but they all were swept aside by Daimon's magic. He took every step calmly and held his gaze up to His majesty who was sitting at the throne worried about his well being. Every step being slower due to how many knights were attacking him and trying to either cut off his head or rescue the princess out of his arms. But all these attempts were futile. The distance between His Majesty and Demon King was about 10 meters. Daimon stopped at his tracks and looked at the princess in his arms and after back at His Majesty and made the following statement.

12:17

"Your daughter will be in good hands, I give you the oath. I will await at my place to see who truly cares to come and rescue her. However if you yourself arrive to rescue her, I expect a diplomatic oath that would end this stupid war once and for all. We too want to live a peaceful life!" Daimon made the statement and then jumped up in the sky gliding off to the land of Demons. He was gliding slow and calmly watching over the crowds that were following him through the streets of the city in an attempt to either take a better look at him or to maybe even catch him. All these attempts were futile however, morose they all made him chuckle. But something caught his eye. It was the head of his brother that was sitting on a display plate. He had no clue what would be done with the head. He made it his mission to retrieve the head. As such he glided to the closest tower and placed down the body of Anahita and told her to hold tight and to not make any movement. As he was going to return shortly. Drawing his bloodthirsty sword he jumped back in the crowd with a single intention, return his late brother's head. He made a few steps in the direction of the remains of his brother but in front of him stood the same knight who had killed his brother with his very own hands. "Huh, it seems your glory seeking has no limits. I applaud your bravery but today is not the day when you perish. I have reserved a special treatment for you when you have arrived at my castle o hero of cowardliness."

12:17

However the brave knight ignored those words and thought to himself that he would rather be severely injured here than to be forgotten. After all that would give him the luxury of the injured knight. Daimon however did not want to let that happen, so all he did was with one swift swing of his bloodthirsty sword, he disarmed his opponent and calmly walked besides him to collect the last remains of his dearest brother. Jumping in the air with back to the Princess. "My horse is awaiting us at the city outskirts." Those were the words of Daimon as he appeared seemingly out of nowhere and took back Anahita in his arms and jumped back down from the tower holding her in his arms. They landed perfectly on his horse named Thunder. The horse was a standard demon horse with horns that were poking to the back of the head. The skin was smooth and dark like the night sky and the eyes were red with a small glow that indicated it's demonic spirit. Daimon made really sure that Princess Anahita was holding tight because the horse was swift and speedy. Riding through the forest giving only the wind a chance to keep up with them. "Hold on tight we are going to be there soon." Daimon said as they were driving through the forest into a field that seemed like a no man's land. This sight continued for a good while until behind a hill the top towers of the majestic Demon kingdom were rising up. Daimon had managed to return to his motherland. And after a few more minutes both of them had crossed the castle gate. Greeted by the servants who applauded their King for the gracious return back to the home.

@Ruvik the Unchained Predator

Anahita did not know if she should be pleased that he was treating her with respect or made the sarcastic comment about her being a "smart girl." She wanted to say more to him but things happened very fast as she heard was apt with for demons. She wanted to tell him they should probably cause less of ruckus, but he did not seem interested to listen to her. And, the blood splattered and she screamed: "Stop! Don't kill them!" Yes, she knew he was rightfully angry but killing all these men and women knights would not help serve them well at all. She was okay with injuring them but if maimed too many, how would anyone believe him, let alone her? She wanted to say more, say something, "I am actually his niece. My Uncle has more than one daughter, with various women. The official princess is —" If he had given her time, he would have told him that she was one of the less important Princesses of the Kingdom. That she had widowed in the Demonic Wars and that she had stayed widowed for five years of her life. And, that she may look a bit younger, but she was thirty. So, the suitors stopped calling in some ways. She was screaming the way Daimon just moved around. He was definitely not human and so was his ascent to top of places, marvellous even if it seemed with ease. "Wait! Don't hurt the Knight!" In true honesty, she was not sure what she had expected. If this man was talking about peace why was he causing such mayhem in the city? She could understand his motivations. Though, she could see from his action an unseasoned hand. As they got the horse, she was feeling the wind knocked out of her. Anahita attempted to hold still but did not know how to approach this situation. Anahita had agreed to go with him but she had not known of the violence that would follow. She looked at her blood covered body and started to sob. Then cry. What the hell was all of that? She started crying really hard. She was surely scared and did not know what to do. <@59386749449

Daimon had dismounted the horse and made sure that lady was safe at her place. He handed over the head of his late brother to the servant who was awaiting his return and as soon as he had received the head, he was filled with shook. He didn't like this one bit. But it was also a relief that the remains of the dearest King Aliastor where all gathered together. Ready for the needed ceremony of paying the final respect. Daimon at the same time had pulled down from the horse the weeping body of the princess and guided her inside the castle. He told all the servants that no demon shall put a finger on her while she was at the castle as a guest. At that moment he didn't think much of it at all as he guided the lady through the streets to the castle keep. The walk was short and before long they entered Daimon's private chambers. There he finally sat down alone with princess Anahita. He placed his arms around her neck and pulled her close to him for a hug. After a little while he noticed that she was soaked in his brother's blood and could pace two plus two together to make the conclusion that she must have been in a shook after what had happened over the capital city. "Fear not my lady. I had not hurt or killed anyone from those innocent people. All I did was return the head of my late brother. I think it's most important that his remains are reunited in one whole."

14:21

He was holding onto her for a little more time until it finally had hit him that besides was sitting a really beautiful and soft woman. That thought filled his mind and then he realised at what he was looking at...This small sensation made him a bit nervous, as he continued to hold Princess Anahita's body but his gaze had ventured to the area which had been seemingly screaming for his attention. As Daimon was looking down, he moved his head from the top of her body to the waist to hold her body closer to his and calm her down after the great shook. While simultaneously he was having his eyes fixed at the chest opening that was giving him a really nice visual. He couldn't believe that such a beautiful lady was a widow without any suitors, tho that mustn't have been true. Surely there were at least a dozen brave men gathering and planning her rescue mission. Daimon wanted to have a little bit more of a peek as he had in reality never seen what woman's chest looks like... even less feels like, so he seamlessly tried to push up his arm just ever so slightly touching the bottom of her chest, pushing it upright just so slightly. But the moment he felt that he might have overdone it he pushed the elbow back down and just held her in his arms calmly.

@Ruvik the Unchained Predator

Anahita calmed down in the hug, "I am sorry, you told me not to get stressed. But I seemed to have already failed that task." She joked to alleviate the tension between them. There would have to be some time to get acclimatised to him and his nation. Anahita sighed though, "I wished we could have bought Tule, Jezebel and Morse." She named her animal friends as if she was listing human family members. Well, they made her sane and gave her comfort and joy. It took her a while to realise that she was in the inner chambers of The Demon King, Daimon. Instead of looking at the obvious luxury of the place she did say softly: "I am really sorry about The Former Majesty. If he had surely been trying to broker peace. Then, I am sorry he had slain by a cowardly knight." A part of her was angered on her own naivety, "I been so blind and stupid. You must forgive my lack of foresight here." In this Anahita, had also forgotten she was in the arms of Daimon. He was more comfortable than he appeared. She was looking around, hence, could not fully see his expressions. "You know you had me on the word hunting. As a princess, I am not always encouraged to leave the castle premises and to go to places that require more protection." She says this with some sighs, thinking of how she was more a woman of the mountains and valleys. How the wild comforted her rather than the boundaries of the four walls: "Whilst it is true I am not as important as my cousins, I am still of the House of Uroso. It would not look good for my Uncle, The King, to have his Brother's only daughter be taken hostage." "Uh, why are you staring at me?" Anahita looked at him not really understanding his gaze, "I am pretty sure you do not mean me any harm." She wondered if all demons were into exo-cannibalism? She did not think The Kings would be? Maybe the soldiers? After all, she knew eating the meat of your enemies in some cultures was a rite of passage or even a rite of vengeance. Then he did tha

00:38

t gesture and Anahita looked at him with shock: "Is that...a jest?" She was not really amused as her husband, once or twice, did this during their time of 'mandated courtship.' It was more formality than affection, more custom than enthusiastic consent. Anahita trembled, "That is not funny Lord Daimon. You may kidnap me, with or without my will. Yet, you cannot seek to amuse me by my expense." She got out of his arms, feelling embarrassed by The Demon Lord's forwardness and his nature to prode her as a laboratory specimen. It was a shame as she had shown him ample respect. She had crossed her arms against her plump chest, only unknowingly accentuating her delicious cleavage. She was all soft fat and muscle, her wait not slim but great for strong hands to take comfort in holding and her flesh was the wine of pleasure. She smelled of a kind of innocence, a sense of truth, she had endured much yet she was also in some ways pure of tongue. Lies came to her less and so did deception. She could only ever be herself and therein lied the problems. For who wanted a princess who spoke her mind and did not behave? Not many people. Even a bratty prince met the rod. It seemed only a King or Queen had the allowance to be as open as they pleased. Anyone else was, well an obstacle. @Candy no party

Daimon's blood pressure was now rising up to a new heights. And seeing Princess look at him with that gaze of disappointment was not helping at all. It was a shame and embarrassment combined to Daimon that he dared to do something like that and now that his curiosity had gotten the upper hand he regretted every bit of movement that he did just seconds ago. When demons blush it's clearly visible for the female demons, but for male demons it's a bit different. Their horns are where most blood cells are stored. Hence if you break a horn from a demon, then their powers are getting dwindled. These horns are their best indicators of what they are feeling right now. If their horns glow in bright blue tone, it means that they are amused and curious about what is going to happen. The trademark villains light. However when Demons experience jealousy or envy, their horns light up in yellow colour. This transparency can sometimes be seen even a few hundred meters away. One of the reasons why Demons are so honest and understanding of each other. Their feelings are already showing more than they wanted to. When Demon is angry, their horns glow in bright red colour, showing their anger and rage as bright as the burning flames of pit of hell. Sometimes the glow is so powerful that the horns even start to heat up and there have been some legendary cases of them catching fire when a demon hasn't had controlled their rage in time.

01:15

There are a few more glows that indicate the feelings of the demons. And one was right now glowing in front of the princess a slightly pink glow. A clear indication of embarrassment. Daimon had placed his head down in shame about what had happened and tried to find the right words to ask for forgiveness. But no words would come to him in time. "I am sorry... please don't tell anyone that I got a bit... excited. I will be shunned upon if someone learns of my mistreatment of a hostage. This here is my brother's room, please use it as you see it fit." Daimon picked up his gaze at the mirror and noticed that his horns were exposed, which caused the pink glow to just amplify. He seemingly had taken off the coverings of the horns at some point without realising it, so he placed them back on and fixed them at the top of his head. "And uhh... about the hunting. I... I will see what I can do. There's one planned in a few days. I will ask my servant to call in a lady demon to help you change and get yourself fixed up. We don't want to have you walk around in dirty clothes."

@Ruvik the Unchained Predator

Anahita immediately felt really embarrassed herself. She should not have made, well The Demon Prince feel ashamed. She did not know of his anatomy. However, she presumed the horns changing colour was indicative of something that signified some sort of embarrassment. She then went and touched his hand. "I am sorry, Lord Daimon. I did not mean to sound rude. I just...My husband was not a nice man." She sighed, "He cheated on me a lot. Found me strange, left me alone for days and then came back with the smell of other women on him. Ladies I met in court. I used to feel so humiliated when they looked at me with a sense of knowing. On how they had spent the night with my husband and not me." These were sad memories and she slowly wiped her tears. "I usually get emotional thinking of such things. The Nobleman husband may have died but his venom still persisted. I have always been an odd woman with loads of intuition. I knew when it would rain and when when the crops would ripen with the fruit. I could tell some limited forms of fortunes to people. I was called a witch and even a demon by many. So, my husband spread rumours of me, on how I am a monster underneath. So people stayed away from me." @Candy no party

Daimon was sitting silent, he didn't know what to say or anything. Even the pat on the head was something that made him feel various emotions, which would have been indicated by the horn's lighting but now as they were covered, Princess Anahita wouldn't be able to see them. "We demons have many sets or rules of honour. One of them being that you never turn back on your partner. Those rule breaking are punished by having your horns cut off." Daimon just looked on the ground, in his younger's mind there were many wishes, yet he couldn't do anything about it, thinking that it will just make his situation even worse. His curiosity would be his downfall it seems. "Well right now I am still like Lord Daimon, that one is true, but after a week there will be ceremonial coronation. Then I will take my brother's place. Just so you know."

@Ruvik the Unchained Predator

Anahita could see that he was curious. "You know. I am going to be honest. I have not been with anyone for really most of my life. I want to know how it is like to be respected." She looked down with a blush, "Do you want to have an arrangement?" She was much bolder than many gave her credit for and she was not going to look at a gift horse in the mouth. @Candy no party

At this moment, Daimon was lost in a mist like place, he couldn't understand where he had gotten himself into and it was like Princess Anahita was pulling some strings. He didn't know what to do now. "an...agreement?" Daimon was thinking right now what would his brother have thought about what he was doing here. He just couldn't get his head together. His horns glowing pink and being so top heavy that he just couldn't keep his senses in place. Few seconds after Daimon lost his consciousness and fell forward pressing his head against Princess chest. This lasted for a few seconds as Daimon's body was rather heavy when not under control, so he continued to fall down and ended up on the floor. Laying peacefully, his horn coverings partially detached from his own horns showing the burning hot pink glow. The poor guy fainted due to stress @Ruvik the Unchained Predator

"Daimon!" Anahita knelt down immediately and craddled him in her lap, "HELP! SOMEONE PLEASE!" She checked his breathing and was holding him, "Please wake up! Please!" She did not understand why he reacted in such a way. She was so scared and she started to weep. @Candy no party

The door to the chambers opened and a calm demonic figure had entered with a face covered using a mask. The Doctor took a few steps and looked over the Demon King Daimon. "Ah poor Daimon. Looks like his young spirit is stronger than one might imagine. Teehee.~" Doctor or rather nurse was taking a good look at what Daimon's horns were at this moment, having a light tap on them. "Oh my... looks like the young boy has overheated." She took off the coverings of the horns, fully revealing the radiant hot pink glow "Alright. This should do the trick. Don't worry much about it. My husband had the same condition when he first met me. He fainted from the stress a few times. One of the reasons why I got so found of him teehee~" Siera applied a few cold cloths on the horns, cooling them down and after pulled up Daimon's body in the bed "He should rest right now a bit. And umm Lady. You shouldn't walk around with a dress covered in the blood of late King. Please change as soon as you can. It can be misunderstood by some demons around here. There are a few clothes over there." Said Doctor Siera as she gathered her things and left the room. @Ruvik the Unchained Predator

Anahita looked at the dcor came in. "I am really sorry I did not know..." Only to hear an explanation and her going 'teehee', "I...uh,...." Anahita blushed extremely red, "I am sorry...I did not mean to uh...I am actually...Thirty years old." She knew she was older by most maiden ages in human species so she did not know what to say or do when she heard what was being said. "Wait, what?" Hearing the rest of the explanation made her look in a way she had no idea, "Wait...I..." Anahita was so quiet, "I am a widow." She was ashamed and she knew why. She had not meant to seduce or excite The Demon King. She was merely being honest. He seemed curious and she wondered...she looked handsome. She did not mind knowing the comforts of a lover again. She nodded about the changing of the clothes. She saw what was a bathroom and she happily went to take a bath. The water in there was running, akin to a small pool or lake. She was giddy with excitement and then went and got undressed and jumped into the water laughing. So happy, the wilderness was her element and she looked so happy in it. @Candy no party

After a few minutes Daimon regained his senses and felt a severe headache. He couldn't handle it much. His horns were burning like hell. Daimon's brother Aliastor often had such headaches. He would often go to Daimon and talk about how he would sometimes want to cut open the head to let out that pressure and hurting pain out from there. It was as if the head was holding in something horrifying and wouldn't let go. At the time doctors didn't know much about the male horns and their effects on the health. But as time had progressed the medical field had found a way to help the headaches. The soft and cold horn coverings that would help ease the pain. Daimon was holding his head and slowly stood up from the bed. He tried to remember where his brother had placed the horns and remembered that there had to be some in the bathroom. Daimon slowly approached the door to the bathroom and opened it, holding his head while shifting from left to right. Barely being able to maintain his stance.... He opened the small shelf where the brother's horn coverings were laying.... and then he realised that he was not alone in the bathroom. Daimons Horns were glowing in pink flame. As he saw the sight for the first time...ever. @Ruvik the Unchained Predator

Anahita did not know Daimon was awake. She frolicked happily in the water and was washing her breasts, which were ample in size. Her cute chubby waist was visible and then she had put water down below as well. She had a slight, cute reddish brown fuzz down there. It was clear she did shave and clean it from time to time and she possibly needed to do again soon. She also had a thick and wonderful rump that complimented the curve of her sign. Even with the soft fats on her back and body, she looked absolute ripened for pleasure. Someone who would go well with muscles as though silk on stone. She hummed happily washing her hair. She was looking for soap and anything to wash her hair with — — Only to see Daimon staring at her. She gave a shriek and got into the water. Bubbles coming out and then she slowly came out, only her face visible, moving away from the light a bit: "King, I am happy to see you feeling better." She looked away, blushing. Though there was a wetness in her loins. She could not believe the way he was staring at her. Like, like he was amazed...was he? She did not know. @Candy no party

Daimon did his best to control his state. He placed on his horn coverings on his head and with a sigh of relief he could finally stand on his foot without the fear of falling down. It took him a few more seconds to avert his gaze. He truly had never seen before anything of such beauty and couldn't keep his mind in one place. "Erm. You are more beautiful than I thought." Daimon said as he exited the bathroom and closed the door behind him. Breathing a bit heavier than usually. He couldn't handle this state, so best thing he could do right now was to go for a walk. This roller-coaster of emotions was not something he had expected at all. He didn't know what to do now. To collect his thoughts he decided to head to his private chambers where he laid back in the bed and wanted to only rest and fall asleep. It was too much for him for a single day. @Ruvik the Unchained Predator

Anahita looked down and then decided. She did not wish to remain celibate and quell her wildness. It seemed God was giving her a chance and she would take it, the horns, so to speak. She then decided to get a small cloth for her hair and just walked into the chambers. She saw Daimon lying in bed and she smiled and went to it. She slowly got in nude in the bed and then caressed hi face: "Hello." She knew when he opened his eyes, he would see the wonderful surprise. @Candy no party

Daimon always slept in his bed almost naked, his only so called clothing at this point was his horn covering. He was sound asleep at this point in time and he did not feel the movements of someone entering the room, nor even entering his bed. He was clueless and 'slept like a demon' during the evening hour. "...." Daimon's body was not the expected muscular one, it was rather slim one, as he did not need the physical appearance to be strong. He was strong with being just a demon. When he's clothed, he looks like a strong and powerful demon, when he's nude, he is instead just a young demon who is defenceless and silent sleeping demon.@Ruvik the Unchained Predator

Anahita got up on top of him and slowly kissed his face.. "Wake up." She says this in softness, though there was a tone of slight order in there as well. She made sure he could see her curvaceous body and wholesome breasts and cute, chubby pussy. He wanted her to enjoy even just gazing her. She yearned to be looked. Not as a freak. But as a woman. @Candy no party

Daimon slowly but surely was waking up from his slumber, His eyes opened up, with a small green light illumination as he was still unsure about what was happening. He felt a slight top heavy push from his perspective. He couldn't understand what was it that was happening to him at that moment. "mmm... uhhh..." At that moment he was faced with the biggest beauty that he could ever imagine. This was instantly getting a response as his dick got swollen up and straight shooting up ready for action hitting against Princess bottom body making Daimon confused and aroused and ton of emotions that made him not understand if this is a dream or reality.

@Ruvik the Unchained Predator

Anahita grounded his cock a bit with her ass. "Do you want me to teach you ways of pleasure?" She softly kissed his cheeks, "I can all yours if you like. You honourable King." She meant it. He was handsome, loyal and strong. What else did she really need? Besides, he showed that fuck all Knight his place in the gutter with the offal and dung. She smiled at him, "Are you excited? I am not the best looking person, but I am happy to have summoned your..." She bit her lip, "Other powers." @Candy no party

Daimon was right now at the loss of words. He was unsure if this was a dream or not. All he right now felt was the soft and pointy scraping of his chest. He could feel every bit of detail as the chest was bumping against his, but that was not all of it. He wanted to know the true feeling of a chest, so he pushed princess body upright, in process accidentally penetrating her insides. He grabbed her breasts in his arms and began to fondle them, just to noticed that Princess body was slowly lowering down. At that moment he felt something that he never had even thought of feeling ever before. Something so warm and wet warping around it, engulfing his lower body into what could be described best as the warmest place ever. He didn't know what to do or how to react to this. He just froze in place holding onto Princess breasts with his arms. @Ruvik the Unchained Predator

Anahita had not entered his cock in but she did make her moist space twirl around his hardness. "You like these?" She bit her lip as she made him squeeze her breasts. She softly went and sucked his tongue. "Do you want me to be yours, Daimon? DO you wish to be mine?" Nuzzling his face she slowly kissed him a bit deeper. She could not not stop it. He smelled nice and he looked good. He had respected her and made her feel so good and safe. Ironically, she found him safer than any human man she had ever been with and this made her feel so, good in many ways. If Demons could like her she knew it was never her fault that her own human people did not. She was an acquired tasted and it was normal that the minds who thought her strange would never truly enjoy her company. She was happier being here. So, she was loving the moment. Being with him, made her feel validated in many ways. @Candy no party

"I uhh... uhm" Daimon couldn't comprehend what was happening right now. Was this a dream or not. He just was throbbing and shaking in excitement and anxiety. He was left speechless for trying to understand what was going on right now. "What are you going to do to me?" Daimon asked in an innocent and shy voice, as he looked at the breasts and continued to fondle them in his arms. He was a bit more curious at that point in time, so he decided to place his face between Princess breasts and just let them engulf him in a feeling that he couldn't even understand. It felt so soft and warm.@Ruvik the Unchained Predator

Anahita could see it and could sense it. She took it slower. She caressed his head as she had held her breasts in his hands. She could understand he was virginal. "Have you ever done this, Lord Daimon?" She spoke to him with respect and kindness. She did not wish to make him feel she was forcing him to do anything. There was a quietness in the room, the drowsiness of The New Demon King, the flickering essence of the moon and the ways light played with the dark marble of the floor mixed with ashen wood. There was a small fire in the fire placed that burned essences of red, blue and green. It did not seem to burn in yellow. As if to to lull people to sleep, a sensory lullaby. She was amazed by The Demonic inventions and the aesthetics of their space. They were not at all the savages the ways her people sold the propaganda. @Candy no party

Daimon waited a few more moment with his head being between her breasts. Waited for the right moment and then rolled around on his stomach placing his head in the pillow. He looked at the fireplace with a small silence. He was really anxious. They just met today, and already so much was happening. "Uhm if you don't mind. Could you please just lay on my back." Daimon liked having some weights on his back, it helped him to relax in a sense. After all right now there were a lot of worries that would come ahead for them. Probable battles and bloodshed. Daimon also was thinking about his brother's death. He just couldn't have his head in one piece. His horns were currently well celled down. He just needed to rest after such... long day. @Ruvik the Unchained Predator

"Oh, I...sure...." Anahita blushed, Did she make a fool of herself? She did not know. She was feeling terrible. She was feeling...dirty. Was she really that undesirable? She had never known any true love as lovers did. She was always forced to see happy couples and never have the same mirth. She was going to give up. She though a Demon would like her, instead, he too rejected her. She did as she was requested and laid on his back. The tears were soft. The feeling of being not wanted etched into her like a dagger in her ribs. Prickling at her heart each time she breathed. She felt like flotsam in the ocean being picked by the gulls. No compass. No sail. All Hail, the Erstwhile Princess. @Candy no party

The feeling of Princess breasts pressing against Daimon's back was a soft and beautiful feeling. Daimon made a sound of pleasure and fell asleep. The next morning Daimon woke up and looked over his back.He noticed that Princess had been pushed to the side giving a sight that Daimon was not really expecting to see. He noticed that princess was asleep, yet her breasts were compactly pressed together facing his direction. Daimon became really aroused by the sight and as the sun was rising, he felt a raging pain from below. Maybe it was all his desires. Daimon stood up from his bed and took note of how burning hot his dick was at that moment. He didn't know what to do. And then there was princess laying there, sound asleep. Daimon thought about what an idiot he was of not taking the chance yesterday. He just looked at the sleeping beauty for a few minutes, as she was sleeping with her eyes staring back at him. The large eyes where he was looking at. while Princesses real eyes were closed in the sleep. Daimon slowly crawled over to the back of Princess. He was looking at the backside and trying to understand what he was looking at. Then it hit him. "Shit... I have no idea what am I supposed to do now." Daimon thought that it will just magically get inside her body. Nope... he just was poking her but cheeks with his dick. Daimon wanted to try one more time. He took his dick in his hands and now pointed it at the clit and pushed it just slightly.... nope something was not right. He moved the tip a bit lower, nope... Daimon had became a bit frustrated at this point. He tried his best and then at one single moment he felt what seemed to be an opening. He slowly pushed it inside her body. Finally achieving the victory.... yet now he was thinking.... now what? @Ruvik the Unchained Predator

"What the fuck?! AH! OUCH!" Anahita got awake and started to sob a bit, "What...?" She looked at Daimon, "Please not, not too rough." She hadn't had sex in so many years, her pussy was virginal. And, The Demon Lord was big. She could feel him throbbing in her. She was panting a bit and sobbing. "Please, let me get accustomed to it." She felt almost a second hymen inside her just give way. She trembled not knowing what to do or say for a while. Only to notice, he had a bewildered look on his face. As if he had no idea what he was supposed to really do. At all. She looked at him and then realised how he was an actual virgin. "Let us take things slow, alright. I am not used to doing this much and you do not know how to do this." She smiled, as if teaching him the ways to make love and to know the joys of intimacy. "Now. Usually, the girl, or the femme, takes time to get into the mood. Our bodies and chemicals work differently, as the old mage told me. You should know that I take time to be wet down there. Then, " She pointed at her clitoris, "This is a place which allows me to have pleasure. It gets erect like your penis. However, my opening is there. This is where you go in. However, the best sensation for both me and you is when I wetter." She caressed his chest, "We do this by something called foreplay. It also helps you stave off your ejaculation but experience the joys of knowing you are pleasing your woman. Being good in bed, as The Wise Courtesan Lettie told me, requires art, science and skill. You must study the body as a warrior studies an enemy, but touch it as you would touch your weapon or steed or a priceless heirloom, with care and affection. And then you must paint it the paints on shield and armour, meaning you must be dextrous with your fingers, limbs, hands, mouth, sex and even your legs and torso. Think of it as also swimming." @Candy no party

Daimon listened to everything princess was telling him, and it all was like flying from one ear inside and out from the other ear... the only thing that caught his attention was that she had to be wet. For that Daimon reached his hand for the cup of water, warmed it up in his hand and then poured it down the but cheeks of Princess Anahita. This was followed by Daimon reaching down on Princess back and grabbing her breasts in his arms, after all he loved the feeling of her chests in his hands. He was not moving however because he had no clue what to do next. All he did was just mere actions and attempt to do anything right. @Ruvik the Unchained Predator

Anahita looked at him as he seemed to pour water on her ass. She was yelping, "No. That is not what I meant. Have you ever have had an orgasm?" She plainly asked him. She did not know how innocent he was and was feeling a bit strange by his lack of knowledge, A demon was being completely pure and uncertain. When she told humans this, they would surely not believe her at all. @Candy no party

Daimon was right now clueless about what to do now, he got so embarrassed and uncertain, if it was not for the cooling horns, he would have had fainted by now. Daimon just pulled out his dick and laid back on the bed. He just stared at the ceiling and then asked Princess "What's an organism?"

@Ruvik the Unchained Predator

Anahita blinked herself. "I...do you know why your cock...grows hard?" She could not believe The Demon Lord had no idea of sexual intercourse or, "Do you know how children are birthed?" She flushed crimson, thinking how he was so, untainted and chaste. It seemed completely uncharacteristic of someone with the title Demon and King, however here they were. @Candy no party

Daimon just stared into the far distance and tried to understand a signle word out of it. "I don't know. I know that my mother birthed me but I was never told the details." Daimon just kept staring at the ceiling clueless about what is happening now. "I just knew that girls pee from that spot and thought what would happen if I would put my dick inside there. I didn't know that you need to pour water at it or something..."

@Ruvik the Unchained Predator

"And, no one told you anything else?" Anahita found it strange that a Demon Prince, before he ascended the throne, had no idea about sex and sexuality. She had always stolen books to read when she was a child. "Did you never wish to know anything?" She asked, wondering if he was interested. "Does anything repulse you about this? Or, do you like it and wish to continue?" @Candy no party

Daimon didn't really know what was the proper answer to anything. His head began to hurt more and more from the emotional stress. The coolers had slowly become warmer and warmer, indicating that at this point in time Daimon was clueless about anything whatsoever. He just looked up at Princess and said "Sure. You can continue what you want." After saying those words Daimon laid back his head that was hurting so badly, he closed his eyes and tried to calm himself down however he could. He was so clueless that he just didn't know even where is he right now or what is happening to him. @Ruvik the Unchained Predator

Anahita decided to slowly kiss his face, "Shhh. Calm down." Then she sang a soft song, which was a more developed from a poem by an ancient artist a long time ago. She then stroked his hair and decided to slowly kiss him more. She had to be soft and slow about this as much as for herself as him. She got on top, and slowly, made sure his large length was lodged in her. She then started to slowly push and pull as though she was the tide. She could only moan at how good the feeling was when she set up the pace. She was making sure he could feel the wetness she had mentioned before, which could definitely rivalled the parched for water. She made sure he was feeling her muscles deeply stroking his member. How the pull and push was like the waves or like the way the wind blows trees in a storm. She was teaching him the pleasurable language of sex. How when couple there was a conversation that was ministration so many forms of exchanges. Deeper impaling the chemicals of each other in the bloodstream. An act as sovereign as flight through air. The alchemy of the matter and mettle of knowing two bodies in motion. @Candy no party

Daimon really enjoyed this moment, indicated by the calmness of his horns. He relaxed and smiled during the procedure. However deep down he didn't understand the appeal of the process at all. He liked it no doubt. Yet it was so foreign to him that he just laid down and waited for something else to happen. Something else did happen. At that point he heard a knock on the door and one of the demon servants, without opening the door, said that a knight was coming their direction and that Demon King's presence was required. Daimon gently pushed up the body of princess and held her in his arms for a few seconds. "We should get dressed and get ready. Looks like the brave knights have arrived to rescue you." @Ruvik the Unchained Predator

Anahita could see he did not seem to understand still about anything. She would not hold it against him in anyway. It was not her place to judge his lack of knowledge. She had voraciously read all her life and had been to pleasure houses to simply observe as well. Not everyone had this luxury at all. "Usually, the male member also moves. This is a position with me on top. Though, you can also be on top. Try to move your hips with me when you can. It allows you to feel a pleasurable friction." She attempted her best to instruct him. Though, she was not sure if he was following anything. It felt somewhat strange. He first husband had been relatively comprehending of sex. She would not say lovemaking as he did seem to know where to put things and pace himself just about right. However, he was not committed to her pleasure. Her husband had been more committed in getting an ejaculation when his usual women were not there to please him. The other thing was he did not wish to be too negligent of his husbandly duties. So, Anahita attempted to excite him. She tried to plan dates and sessions of pleasure. However, he rather have those with his Mistresses. The thing was, he felt the wife was there for not pleasure but performance. For a lineage, and also for some relief. Her husband did not think she was there to receive any pleasure. One day, out of anger, he had slapped her and told her no one would have wanted her besides him. That she was an odd woman and that much had been given to him to consider. It was true he did not find her unpleasant to look. Anahita realised the intimidation he had of her. The questioning and curious nature, mapped out with sensuality, alarmed and frightened him. It frightened many people so she had been mostly alone. Though now, she was wondering, if there was anything from her The Demon Lord wanted to know. With the sex, arts of lovemaking and knowing the pleasures of the body? She tended to animals and knew how to hunt. Would he i

14:41

nterested to know how she is able to know of magical herbs and flowers? Knowing how to know the approachable wolves and foxes? The signs of deer? Anahita had no doubt he was an excellent hunter. Though knowledge was always to be gained and learned. She wondered if there was anything that would require them to get closer. She did desire peace and hoped for it. The Demonic Wars needed to come to a close. For her people and his. They could have some unity. What good chaos do when there were seeds of collaboration? It was the knock that broke the spell of the sensuousness shared between them. Upon hearing the words, she genuinely looked confused. "Wait, what?" She looked on to him as he stated they should get dressed. This did not seem right. Even when she rolled off from him, her juices trickling down, she wondered what was happening. "Daimon King, I do not think this is a fair fight. As I have told you before. I would not be as sorely missed as some of my cousins. Something does not seem right. I would advise you to treat this meeting with caution." She was using a washcloth to clean herself and somewhat stumbled as she tried to get dressed. As a Princes,, she was used to ladies attending her when they could. "I hope they did not come here to say you can keep me and they will still have the war instead." The probability of that happening was higher than it seemed to be even if it was shame to hear. They just needed to be careful. @Candy no party

Daimon stood up from his bed site and instantly headed to his wardrobe. His first task was to put on his necessary clothing for the meeting. The notion of a knight already arriving at the demon land was a rather unexpected one. Could it be that they are really caring for this princess. Yet... then again, princess claims that she's not important to the royal family, and that this all could be only a cleverly disguised trap. Daimon looked over his weaponry, there was his dagger, that he would often use for small tasks, and right next to it was his brother's sword. Daimon looked at the seal drawn on the sword and thought about how important this family's heirlom was. It could quite possibly be thousands of years old by this point. Daimon just couldn't comprehend the weight that was on his shoulders right now. The top priority was after all to negotiate peace treaty with the humans. Daimon was spacing out for solid quarter of a hour until he regained his senses from all the thoughts. He placed on his clothing and then prepared himself to depart to see his generals. His heartbeat was rather fast. He at some point got quite excited as in what if the knight, who's coming is that bastard who had killed his brother in cold blood. That would be just exciting news. Getting all fired up, Daimon put on his steel boots and opened the door. Right in front of him were standing two guards who were guiding Dr.Sirea to see Daimon's health condition. He was not up for it, but the monthly checkup was there so Daimon had to oblige, despite him being busy and anxious about what is to come. He tried to reason that this could wait for the later, but Sirea didn't want to listen any of this.

"Young Prince, soon I might call you young King, or whatever... I know you are anxious to see that knight, but if you are to fall on the ground from heat cramps or any other reasons, then it will be my responsibility to answer for those losses. Don't be selfish and let's go to the bathroom, where there's less people." Sirea was looking at Anahita, as she was saying that, she didn't like to work when people are looking at her all the time, even worse someone might get the wrong impression when a doctor is doing her job after all. "You know what you must do, get in the bathroom and I'll follow you just right after." Siera closed the door behind herself and shoved the way to Daimon with her hand. Right after she opened her medicine bag and took out a few bottles with various liquids in them. Gauze, a thin almost transparent fabric, and iron scissors. Preparing all these things for her was easy, she just burned them with a portable torch and went inside the bathroom. Inside the bathroom Daimon was already naked, ready to see the inspection, as Siera entered that room The door behind them was closed. Right after there was a silence that would be interrupted by the noises of the scissors. Then a small phrase was heard "Just hold on, this might be just a little bit painful." Daimon was grunting in pain, but holding up just fine. Siera took care of everything and cleaned up the blood with the potions that she took with herself, leaving the bathroom where Daimon was getting back dressed. "Don't worry princess, I didn't do anything to him, yet he didn't finish, I can tell. Teehee~" Siera took her items and left the room.

@Ruvik the Unchained Predator

Anahita looked at how Daimon acted. There was a lot about him she did not understand. She did not understand why a Demon Prince knew nothing about sex, orgasms, or anything, it seemed unheard of as princes and princesses needed to learn more quickly so they could satisfy things required for them and their betrothed. When Dr. Siera came she was curious to see what was being done. Only for her to lead him in the bathroom. She wondered on it. Wondering why there werte sounds of scissors. Only later, as she came out and said those words, she was incredibly worried. Going in to meet Daimon, she was curious. Did she do something to his horns? Was this what was being conversed about? She had no idea. "Lord Daimon, are you alright?" She called out to him. @Candy no party

Daimon fully got dressed and exited the bathroom, he looked perfectly fine at this moment. Looking a bit tired, after all these checkup procedures were not fun, they were exhausting and he just hated them. Yet it was necessary thing to be done. "Yes I am perfectly fine. I should get ready however to go. I'll see what happens. Perhaps you want to follow me and see the events as they unfold?" Daimon asked, however he was cautious about this, if it's a good idea at all. Some newest reports seem to be that the knight is not alone, that Daimon heard from Sirea as she was doing his health checkup. "But for that you need to get dressed. Despite you looking really nice being like this, we can't have you walk around naked, can we?"

@Ruvik the Unchained Predator

Anahita snorted at his statement,"Of course, I am not walking around nude. I do need like some clothes though." She went and wore a nice dress that was casual, had flower prints but still looked something a princess would wear. Daimon was not lying when he stated, he would take care of her as he had been doing all of that. @Candy no party

Daimon was standing at the ceremonial hall, talking with his generals, who pleaded that he would take some men with him for the communication. However being sure in his own powers, Daimon just kindly asked that all men should be prepared for heading to his site in case something does happen. Daimon was sure in his powers and this confidence could be his worst undoing someday. As Princess entered the Ceremonial Hall, Daimon looked at her with a smile and then headed to the exit. "Looking good, Princess, I heard that there are at least seven people there. And most importantly, your Uncle, or the King of the kingdom."

@Ruvik the Unchained Predator

Anahita did not like this; she went on to say. "I do respect your wisdom, Lord Daimon. I think you are like your brother in that regard. As you are honourable, however, I do not think you should underestimate the nature of your enemy and opponents. You do not know them. I am a human and I am telling you. I would glad work peace with you. Though, I am not such a valued asset. There is some scheme here I am sure of it." @Candy no party

Daimon took a moment to think about what Anahita told him "She's right, I will need two brave bodyguards for Princess Anahita to guard her from any danger possible. Her loss would be detrimental to our plans for actual peace." Daimon looked over the lines and chose two soldiers who stepped fourth and as it would happen, one of them was husband of Sirea. As soon as Daimon recognised him, he placed his hand on the knight's shoulder and gave him a blessing.

"Thank you Prince...." Verligis is a shy demon who by the appearance may seem to be the coldest hearted or most evil creature, yet only Sirea knows how awkward and cute he can be. This duality is something that many thrive for after all. He prepared his sword and then went alongside Princess Anahita and on the other side another demon knight.

"Whatever it takes Princess has to be safe at home. I hope that is clear." @Ruvik the Unchained Predator

14:16

Daimon then cleared his head a bit. "If it comes to that, let's hope we won't have to fight for Princess safety"

"What? You do not need to fight for me at all. I am not such a valuable person. If you want, you can return me or like keep me and kidnap someone more valuable." Anahita did not know what could help. Besides, she had thought...maybe Daimon would be interested in her. Though he had too many important things than romance in his mind right now. @Candy no party

"You are.... a diplomatic tool." Verligis said in a sour tone, he had learned a lot from his wife about the latest political events and knew quite well what was going on. "If you were harmed.... humans use it as just cause to war."

"That sums it up for now." Daimon said as he ordered the opening of the gate to move to noman's land to talk about the treaties with humans.

@Ruvik the Unchained Predator

Anahita nodded slowly and she felt well...ostracised once again. She wished she had Tule, Jezebel and Morse with her. Her animals friends would keep her company when she was not doing anything else. She slowly just sat down on a cushioned sofa and just sang songs. @Candy no party

Daimon was looking over his people who were standing at the guard duty. After he looked at the captive princess, standing there, presumably thinking about something important to her. Daimon had a quick thought in his mind about what can be done to help her. He did remember that she longed for her friends. However now was not the time to think about those issues. These issues might as well be solved by now. Daimon stood patiently at the castle gate. To his right a demon servant approached, holding on his right hand a white towel, and between his fingers two glasses, which looked like vine glasses, while on the other hand, which was pressed on the side, holding a silver plate, and in the hand a fine wine bottle. Daimon nodded at the demon and fixed his horn protectors on his head. One of the commanding officers of the gate guard shouted the order 'OPEN THE CASTLE GATE', turned to his majesty and with a simple nod returned his gaze to the horizon, where the humans were presumably waiting for the peace talks. Four demons ran up to the gate house and split in two pairs, one pair went to the right side as the other went to the left one. Both pairs grabbed onto a large wooden wheels, which were holding a chain that stretched up height to the top of the gatehouse. With a coordinated song, the wheels were being spun up by the demons, making the large gate doors to open up slowly, with a creaking sound of the wood and steel frame. The sound deafening opening of the main gate was accommodated by a large steel structure, that resembled a pattern of thousand steel squares being stacked on top of each other. The steel structure was not moving one bit. But as the doors were opened completely, from both sides in fact. As the structure went, there were two doors from each side covering this large steel structure (Known as portcullis btw)

13:10

The commanding officer of the gatehouse then gave his second command 'Rise the Varota' which was followed by the second not to His Majesty. He then returned his gaze to the horizon and stood still. The gate keepers then moved their hands to the second wheel, that was standing besides the large wooden wheels, used to open the main wooden doors of the gates, to another wheels which were used to open varota. Daimon then turned to Princess and calmly explained to her "I am unsure how you people call these things, but we call them varota, from ancient demon word meaning gate. Sometimes I am amazed at how much languages and history plays a role in how things are named. Don't you think the same?" As Daimon had made the small talk with Princess, the varota were rising higher and higher, with the sound of steel scraping against the walls of the gatehouse. Finally a huge clank sound was heard, accompanied by the gate keepers shutting the wheels in place. The demons were a bit exhausted by that point, standing and grasping for some air. They were soon accommodated by female demons, most likely their wives who gave them water to drink and helped them to head to the side and catch a break. Daimon thanked them and slowly stepped outside of the castle walls,which keep him and everyone else safe inside. He looked at the guards and informed them that if they see all of them being slaughtered at the no mans land, they are to shut the gates immediately and prepare the castle defences.

13:10

"Alright, let's head and talk with the humans. Keep the princess at a distance, we don't want them to steal her back from us." Daimon said as he took his first steps, followed by two knights who were walking close by and his servant who followed behind the guards. After six more guards in a column of two knights side by side, in two by six order followed behind the servant. After he knights Verligis took his steps and guided Princess calmly who was lifted up on a horse to keep up with the demon speeds. After them twenty more knights were following them in four by five column ready for the talk. While rest of the knights went up the castle walls and waited patiently. The entire castle went silent and everyone was holding their breaths now, waiting calmly for what was going to happen now. Is this the long awaited peace that everyone wishes for, or will this be start of another war... Nobody knew the answer to that. @Ruvik the Unchained Predator

When he started talking to her about the gates and the word 'Varota' meaning of gate, she had instantly seemed keen to discuss things: "Varota is an interesting word for gate as it signfied deeply with the word veritas which is truth. Hence, I am not surprised in your language the gate is akin to truth. Also, it has signfications with depth as I heard it used as a word for 'cistern'

14:00

She explained with enthusiasm as the wind blew her deep, brown, curly hair, "I also know Vorota means 'goal' in some languages and 'sale' in another. So, I can see why the word gate would have so many manifestations and they all are synonymous if not fully analogous to the word 'truth'." As they got into one of the most intrinsic formations she had ever seen she knew they were going forth. She hoped this was not an amnbush. @Candy no party

"That's.... quite insightful." Verligis was listening to everything princess was saying. At this point in time Daimon was no longer with us, so to speak. He was currently in his mindset, thinking about his diplomatic moves. In the meantime Verligis was deep in his thoughts as well. It was as if he was looking a little bit sad at that point in time. His mind being somewhere elsewhere. "I already miss my wife... heh still it feels like she's right besides me. She was quite busy this morning so I couldn't get my wishes of safe travel. It's not much, I know how much she loves me anyway, but I really love her sweet kisses." Verligis said in a stoic voice and kept marching besides Princess. His steps being long and silent, you couldn't tell how his next step would be, as if the sound and the movements were out of sync. This was not unusual for a few demons. Those tales about a demon coming silently in the night sky... this was why that would happen.

"Honey~"

"Heh it's so lively. I could swear that I heard her just now. I miss her so much already..." A few steps ahead Verligis froze in place and realised that it was not his imagination

"Darling~"

"Sirea? What are you doing here?" The young demon stood and couldn't believe his own eyes. Before him was standing his wife, covered in the black cloak of her profession, and her face covered in the doctor's mask. Her voice however was crystal clear. "You should be back at the castle, I can't have you in such danger."

"Someone has to keep a close eye that nobody faints during the peace talks... teehee. Oh and did you really mean it. That you love me so much and miss me already?" Verligis would never directly tell Sirea that he loves her, he couldn't ever bear such strong words without fainting. It was his small handicap so to speak. But now he realised that she heard everything he had said, and that made him so embaressed, that his horns began to glow, indicating to everyone what was happening right now. Some of the knights chuckled seeing the sight. Verligis and Sirea are known as the most favorite couple of the kingdom. Their silly love is loved by everyone, and gives a sort of template of true love between two demons. Sirea lifted up her mask and with a joyful smile kissed her husband. "My dear knight. I love you too.... You silly dummy. Let's get going before we get left behind~"

Verligis nodded and took Sirea by her hand, helping her fix her mask in place and walked together back to princess. "Hmm.... Looks like we are at the meeting place." Everyone stopped and stood silent as they watched Daimon took his steps to the discussion table along with his servant, placing the two glasses and waiting patiently for what is about to happen

@Ruvik the Unchained Predator

Anahita was envious a bit of the love between the doctor, Sirea, and her husband knight, Verligis. Though she was also very happy for them. She wondered if she would ever have love. The noble who was her husband did not love her and she was mostly left alone all the time. There was no reason Daimon would love her. She sighed. @Candy no party

Daimon looked over the human representatives who were all standing in a circle, he was unsure who arrived and who did not. "Is His majesty among all you?" Daimon asked in a polite voice. He just waited to see who was there. He was aware of the petty hero being there. But who else was there?

@Ruvik the Unchained Predator

Anahita could see he had not been here. Her Uncle was not here. She looked at the knights and some of the faces she clearly recognised. These were Knights who had been disgraced. Whose families had been forced into exile or prostitution. Her uncle was cruel and enjoyed being sadistic. She remembered a sobbing young girl was brought into the court nude and vegetables and things were thrown at her. She was leashed up as a wild animal and people made rude comments of her body. The young noble girl, whose father had been a knight, broke down emotionally, as her uncle said she would be a wench for the court now, lower than the servant. Anahita would not allow it. When one of the men tried to touch her she took the fruit knife and slashed his arm and hand. She demanded her Uncle never made this display again in front of her lest he want his wife to be find out of his Mistress in another kingdom. She had incurred his wrath then as he tried to make her starve then. Though temporarily, that young girl was made into a lady in waiting in her palace and seemed so grateful towards her for all the love and attention she started to give her. Anahita would not let such perversions to happen. So, she actually, accidentally stripped off one of the King's daughters in court. Seeing her ridicule and shame, and the fury of his wife, her Aunt, he started to tone down on how he made the fallen Nobles suffer. Her Uncle had always seen her as as threat. Well, she was one. She would not tolerate the horrible ways in which someone abused their power and authority. Now, she was reminded how her uncle sometimes treated Fallen Knights as well. The Knight who had boasted killing the former Demon King was here to seemingly prove himself. No...No...she knew better. The man was here as a death sentence even he did not know it to be sure or finalised. The Knight had disappointed the king when he had taken her and also felt The Knight had enabled him to make the king a mockery in hi

15:47

s own kingdom. This was both retribution and vengeance against Daimon and The Knight. The fucking git was here to die. And he did not even know it. "DAIMON! IT'S A TRAP!" Anahita screamed, surprising even The Knight. A horse came in carrying caustic liquid potion bottles and then - to her horror she saw it explode in front of the horses, killing the horse it was on. She screamed seeing the cruel death of this animal. One of the knights' heads blew up and shot in the air like some canon fire and then fell with a flat and soggy noise in front of them. This started to make many of the horses agitated and it seemed the human knights were realising they were scapegoats to prolong a war or be sacrifice for the human kingdom. They were not here to reclaim their honour in the slightest. Anahita screamed as further potion explosives ruptured out and created a cacophony and chaos. With some of the knights bodies being charred and burnt alive. The screaming of humans were rampant in the air. @Candy no party

"Verligis! Get Anahita back into safety! She's your top priority!" Those were the first words that Daimon said as the explosions had occurred. His mind was clear about what was going on right now, a direct assassination attempt. This was going to not go as they had planned thought Daimon as he ordered his demon knights to step back. His actions were the following, he rushed up to the humans and picked them up by their clothes and tossed them far to the back where his knights could capture them and after bring them to safety. Daimon's skin was covered in goosebumps as he could feel the shock wave of the explosions from the horse. He could somehow tell what was that in their packages. Just a slight shock and the mixture will explode. Daimon could smell the blood of the animal, it was still warm and made him feel a bit sick. He hated the smell of a warm dead animal, as their insides were falling down from the sky in an explosion. As he was going fourth to save his second human, a horses head was falling on his hands, with half of it's top being chopped off. The look of the dead horse's eye staring right at him was a tremendous sight. He couldn't keep his head straight right now. However his sense of duty made him snap out of it, as he dropped the head and grabbed more humans and tossed them to the backside to make sure the more of them are saved. The third man that Daimon picked up was a familiar face, covered in horse's blood, Daimon could recognize it right away, it was that pesky knight who had killed his brother. However right now was not the time to deal with old issues. There were new and more important issues at hand at this point in time.

13:00

"I would have loved to see you explode right now, but that can wait for later, right now you should live and see the true colours of your masters!" Those were the words of Daimon as he threw the body of the infamous knight to the back lines, for his knights to capture him and guide back to the castle. As Daimon was trying to save more mortal souls, some of the humans were trying their best to calm down the horses, three of them were trying to use their brute force to keep the horse steady in one place, but in the end, they managed to achieve the opposite effect of the horse getting more in panic, causing the mixture to explode, making the poor animal, alongside the humans explode into pieces, their blood splattering around causing more panic among the horses. Daimon tried his best to act fast, he took a few more humans and threw them to the backside, managing to save about 7 human beings in total. As he was trying to keep the horses in place, he took out his sword and cut open the bags that were attached to one of the animals, freeing it from the deadly self destructing container, guiding the animal back to the back lines. While he was doing all of this, he had ordered all of his man to retreat.

Sirea was looking at what was happening at this point in time in horror. She couldn't believe the cruelty that was happening right there and there. All she could do was to help any demon who would have had sustained any damage from the explosions. She looked at the front lines and noticed that only the animal's blood splatter was what had covered some of the demon knights. She got the order from his Majesty that everyone shall retreat. She looked at how all the knights had formed a formation of a wall of sorts and took one step at a time back. There were two roles the knights had been doing, one union was forming a straight wall formation with their shields to cover everyone else from whatever explosives could be throwing at them, this was mainly done to keep them safe. While other knights were picking up the human survivors from the ground, placing chains on their hands and guiding them to the castle walls.

13:00

Sirea was looking at her husband mounting the horse and running back to the castle. She was well informed about the importance in the peace talks, princess Anahita was playing, so she turned her attention to her duties instead. As soon as she saw another man landing on the ground, she wanted to see how His Majesty was faring in the field where just a few minutes ago, everyone hoped for the greatest peace talks ever. She watched as three man were holding together a horse. She had a terrible gut feeling about it so she took a few steps towards them and tried to call out to them to leave the animal alone, just to receive a huge blast from the explosion. Sirea fell on the ground and her mask was now covered in the blood. Her eyesight was now blocked by the blood. She didn't know was it her blood, was it the blood of a demon, or was it humans. The mask, that she usually wears for her duties has glass coverings for the eye lids. Those lids were now covered in blood. She just saw dark mist, as she tried to wipe the blood away from her mask, she felt a hand pulling her up from the ground. The front line soldiers had moved their formation forward to rescue her. While the gatherer knights had dispatched one soldier who pulled her up and wiped her mask with a piece of his shirt. At that moment she could just faintly see some figures walking around. She didn't have any clear vision on what was going on around. The knights had taken her in their arms and began to bring her back to the castle, where she would be safe.

13:00

She heard many more screams and terror, she didn't know what was going on at this point in time, everything was red around her. To clean her sight, she took a piece of cloth and tried her best to wipe clean her mask to have a better vision. But each attempt was making the glass go worse and worse. At this point she had decided that it was enough. She took off her mask, asked to be placed on the ground and turned her vision to the no mans land where she saw two horses running freely at them and his Majesty at the place where the meeting would occur.... and then she saw his majesty and a few more people blow up.

@Ruvik the Unchained Predator

nahita had been screaming all this time. A horse's airborne intestines came at her and wrapped itself around her neck, making her screamed louder. Her uncle was cruel; he had decided he would get rid of her, some of the people who had earned his disfavour and start a offensive retaliation against demons, She was crying as she braced herself for the worse. She could hear the pained neighing of horses, demons screaming and human men, ravenous birds fly away screeching in defiance of the smoke, ash and blood. Anahita screamed out Daimon's name and wondered what was going on now. She saw only flashes of him in the distance; saving human beings as well as his own demon men. This act of nobility itself engendered and endeared him to her aside his innocence and his good nature. The fact he did not wish humans to get hurt. She saw Sirea on the ground and regardless of being protected by Verliges, she rushed out at the doctor and picked her up. "Come on! We need to move out of the way!" Anahita could see the bloody, explosive, chaotic pandemonium the supposed peace treaty had become. She was starting to cry; even if her uncle hated demons. All she knew was, there was no need for this much violence and destruction. Seeing a chaos of smoke, Anahita screamed: "DAIMON!" @Candy no party

Verligis had seen what had happened just now and knew that this will be a devastating thing to happen. Every knight on the castle wall saw his Majesty blow up on the battle field, making some of the knights go in panic. Their spirits were kept in place by the generals, who valued their duty more than what was happening on the field. "We must.... stick to the protocol. No matter... what." Verligis picked back up on his horse Princess and his wife and returned inside the castle keep. "Princess is the top priority.... She must be safe at all costs..." As Verligis and the last knights passed the gatehouse, the gate was shut close. Most knights were silent and acted with small pauses. "...General. We must... keep castle safe." Nobody knew if His Majesty was alive or not. But they knew what they had to do now. They all waited to see if Humans would use this disarray as chance to invade. @Ruvik the Unchained Predator

"NO! DAIMON!" Anahita was crying, there was no way she could just leave! If he died! That would kill her conscience as a stone to a bird! "I WARNED YOU ALL! I WARNED YOU!" She broke down. She could not believe her uncle would go this far. She refused to believe the kind, good heart Demon King, was dead. She struggled for a bit, then got quiet. She felt broken inside. All of this, for what? Anahita had wanted an attention of a knight. Found out he was worse than a barbarian thief. Now, she was to wither into annals of history, as the princess culpable for the death of a Demon King. @Candy no party

Sirea and quite a few other demons were currently on the verge of breaking down as well. But they kept their heads up and just waited for what was to happen next. They all observed the battlefield and tried to see if the humans would come and invade the palace at this point. "I... think that they... might ask for unconditional surrender."

Verligis took a note of what his wife just now had said and turned to his general who nodded in agreement. "I do.. believe so too. We just need to wait.... for humans to arrive."

@Ruvik the Unchained Predator

"You just cannot surrender! The humans are savages! You saw what they did! I will serve as witness! Please!" Anahita was completely desperate, "You just cannot...." This time, she was sobbing. The way all of the events unfurled. It made her feel her resolve was weakened. She could not do anything but have tears in her eyes and conviction in her soul. @Candy no party

"His majesty.... made orders crystal clear. No matter what...... keep the gate locked... and stay on guard until the nightfall..." Verligis said in a voice that was semi silent. Monotone and a bit sad. Demons just stood and waited for impending siege of the humans. The woman were weeping and it was heard through the entire field. As the nightfall was approaching, the torches were lit to illuminate the walls. This was there to keep the line of defense clear and safe.

@Ruvik the Unchained Predator

Anahita knew this was her fault. She began to cry, "I should never have agreed to this. I tried to tell him it was a trap." For the shortest time, she had known Daimon, he had always treated her with respect. There was never ANY lack of respect. Now, she was flung into an uncertain world. She had no idea what would happen to her now. She was also incredibly worried about the people here. It did not matter they were Demons. They needed to fight back. The humans had no right to perform a culling and a species scale genocide. There was no reason to do ANY of this. Daimon and the last king, his late brother, had done all they could do to strive for peace. She had to be the messenger of this. She could not give in. This madness would have to stop. She would honour Daimon, his brother and the Demon people. She would work hard to get them their justice and recognition. @Candy no party

As the bright shining moonlight was rising, Verligis was looking up in the night sky seeking some sort of a sign or an answer to what was happening right now. Most demons walked around unsure of what is the future holding for them. Their last King was no longer alive, most demons had seen him blow up. Some had even questioning the nature of how easily Daimon had passed away. Normally demons can withstand the blasts. Verligis even thought about one of the most severe blasts that he had received and even then it was something that his wife could have had mended for him. A few more minutes passed in the evening, and at this point most demons would take note of human camp being built on the opposite side of the nomans land. As it would seem to appear, Prince Daimon was correct about something, the humans were observing the events as they were occurring. Daimon had made it clear that no human were to be executed. This was one of the iron rules, as he had highlighted the fact, if humans were to see them punish or kill their comrades, no matter if they are criminals, pieces of scum or anything similar, then they would feel righteous in invading their lands and fighting the pointless war of extinction. After about a quarter of a hour, Verligis had turned his attention towards the intersection point, the one where Prince Daimon and the humans were dying from the cruel trap. He was looking at that spot in hopes that His Majesty would suddenly stand up and return to the castle keep. Despite how hard he was staring at the pile of the exploded bodies, he didn't see any movement. Verligis was concentrating so hard at that point that when his wife had arrived to see him, Verligis got a bit startled.

"Darling, it's already first hour of the night cycle. Aren't you going to get some rest?" Sirea went up to her husband and inspected his body to see if he is feeling well, isn't he tired or anything other bad had happened to him. She placed her fingers on his chest and run them down, trying to identify any injuries. After a concerned gaze, she made a sigh of relief and removed her face mask, revealing her smooth face and the small nose, that was surrounded by dark eye lids and her blue eyes, which are extremely rare among demons. Sirea pushed her head in Verligis chest and silently started to sob. She was used to see death of humans or animals, but death of the prince Daimon, and to see it first hand, she couldn't bear it. She placed her arms and grabbed onto Verligis shirt as she cried her heart out from the traumatizing experience. After a few moments she felt the hands of her husband warped around her shoulders, pushing her closer to him in a comforting hug. "Why are the humans so cruel.... Only Prince Daimon tried to see the difference between people forced to do evil deeds and people who were the evil deeds.... next prince will most likely be cruel." That was the current reality of things right now. If by the next morning His Majesty wouldn't show up alive, then the entire castle will fight for the next prince. Humans will use it as a chance to invade, when the kingdom is in a chaos, as the battle for the succession happens. "I don't know anyone else who would uphold Prince Daimons beliefs, so maybe you should do your best to achieve the throne?"

Verligis sighted and looked back at the noman's land. "Let's hope that it doesn't come to that. And how is the princess doing right now?"

"I barely managed to push her to go sleep. She's fighting like a warrior with determination... I hope she won't get in the way."

@Ruvik the Unchained Predator

Anahita could not sleep. Would not sleep. Did not sleep. How could she sleep when Daimon's possibly decomposing corpse was out there in the battlefield? The blast zone becoming a No Man's Land. She felt the weight of so many things, especially the death of so many Demons, Animals and Humans. For what? Her asshole of an uncle to make a statement. I have to leave. I have to find something that would stop the human advancement on these people. Anahita knew Verligis would not harm humans. No matter how much she lauded, applauded and admired their pacifist credo and convictions, she could not see them helping them win the war. What else could she do? She was not going to waste her way in this luxurious bedroom, Daimon had given her the privilege to stay in. She undressed and wore some better fitting clothes, meant to be used venture out into the world. In the tall window, she looked outside, in the distant human campfires. She could smell the burning of wood, ash and even, horse bones. The meat excavated was fed to tired and broken soldiers, who treated sustenance by their contents of fats, carbohydrates, Vitamin D and proteins, not by taste. The moon was out and in the sky it seemed both star and spectator. It seemed odd how a satellite dominated the night sky, even outshining distant suns burning away lightyears away. It was the moon, which eclipsed and highlighted many constellations, along with the dark veil of night. It always fascinated her, how a body that seemed foreboding in the hour of witches and spirits, made the time seem sacred, not fearsome. Her thoughts went to Daimon and his horns. How they also seemed to serve the satellite to his planet and sun. Triggering his emotions as a meteor shower. She smiled and started crying; even in the shortness of time, his absence was the weight of the stone that gathered and was strangled by moss. She wiped her tears and readied herself. Anahita knew she needed to venture out. Using bedsheets, she climbed out

07:44

the window. Going off to the night, and then hearing a familiar sound. A yap, a half-howl, from the shrubbery came out her White Fox, Tule. "Tule!" She contained her excitement as the beast jumped t9o her and started licking and cuddling with her. "Come on girl." Anahita knew she needed the fox as she tried to escape the castle grounds. There was no way from the Varota so she decided to follow Tule and see if she squeeze the way she had squeezed in. @Candy no party
