The Demons of Watchwood Forest 2

[Harri-chan]

The little girl's blue eyes widened, and her mouth fell open as she heard what the Princess had planned for her. "Wh-What? But... ". Words failed her, and she was left shaking her head in disbelief, her pale, freckled cheeks going increasingly pink. She was used to leading an order, a town, a whole religion. She was used to politics and battle... and could not imagine anything further from her own life, than that of a young Princess.

Without realising, she'd grasped at the dress of the Princess, having been utterly lost in thought for several moments. "I can't be your daughter... I have my own daughter!", she said, shock still etched across her young face. "I... I kissed you yesterday!", she continued, as if she could prove she would be able to better serve the woman as an adult. The talk of being raised made her feel as if her entire personality was going to be remoulded by the Princess.

She swallowed a deep breath as she heard what the Princess said about worshipping Rose, and she felt a shiver run down her spine. "Princess, please... she's using you as a puppet... you're stronger than this. You don't need her protection and guidance... you don't need to give your Kingdom over to her... we can work together and defeat her... and you can rule without any Demons being involved!", she pleaded.

Krystal's green eyes gazed straight up into those of Lady Rose, her hands lightly grasping the cloth wrap around her thighs as the Seductress spoke. Drawing a deep breath, she nodded her head, but did not speak. At the suggestion, she slowly rose back up from her knees, standing taller than Heulwen, and perhaps even Rose herself. Lifting her hands, she lightly grasped the Demoness by the shoulders, and then leaned in, pressing her lips to those of the other woman to kiss her deeply.

[Blaze]

James swallows hard. He was handy with his knives sure, but this guy was dead and he doubted he got to this position in death by being weak. But there was really no other way.

"I accept your challenge."

[Vomica]

Ovvar goes about noming on the plate set before him. The man glances towards the kind after the momnet, "...knowledge is what I lack. It is what I need. I can, perhaps, slay any man that stands against me. But if that being is more than a man? ...well. I do not know how to anniliate them. I am being honest. Death is pernament for us mortals, but for the demons and those that stand with them? ...I'm not so sure."

Lifting her hands, she lightly grasped the Demoness by the shoulders, and then leaned in, pressing her lips to those of the other woman to kiss her deeply.

The Princess sits down on the bed, pulling Ginny into her lap. "Now now... calm down little one. I know your worried... and I'm happy your concerned about me. But Rose isnt evil... that is just what the church would want you to think. We have worshiped the spirits for hundreds of years... and they have always helped us in our time of need. You will learn all this soon enough. Wartime is not the best time to be raising a little girl, I know... but with you as my daughter... I can stop my father from trying to force a suitor on me." Her face brightens. "With you as my daughter, I can raise you up as a proper princess of Watchwood... and one day you can be Queen after me."

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Rose kisses Krystal back! Holding her close... the priestess soon smells her sweet seductive smell all around her. ~Relax....~ Comes a soothing voice... speaking to her mind! As she feels her body tingle... power and pleasure filling her up. She felt her curves press against the voluptuous swell of the other woman's... She could feel her breasts and hips swelling larger... her skin growing impossibly smooth and flawless... her hair slowly grows softer and silkier... to those watching it was as if pure femininity was being injected into Krystal.

James swallows hard. He was handy with his knives sure, but this guy was dead and he doubted he got to this position in death by being weak. But there was really no other way.

"I accept your challenge."

"Good..." Comes the reply... as the sparkle in the eye sockets of the corpse grow brighter. There is a moment of silence, then with a rush of air and dust an ethereal image bursts forth from the body of the dead king. A man, broad of shoulder and bright eyed... dressed in the same armor as sits on the throne, charges forwards towards James. A long spectral two handed sword glittering in the darkness.

Ovvar goes about noming on the plate set before him. The man glances towards the kind after the momnet, "...knowledge is what I lack. It is what I need. I can, perhaps, slay any man that stands against me. But if that being is more than a man? ...well. I do not know how to anniliate them. I am being honest. Death is pernament for us mortals, but for the demons and those that stand with them? ...I'm not so sure."

The food is well made and tasty, obviously the king's lack of appetite was not due to any failure of the chef's art. He nods to Ovvar. "That is the question. How do you kill that which is already dead?" He closes the tome with a thump. "The demons are not alive in the way we are. They have no body of their own... to do anything they have to find a host. But even if this host is killed... they just bleed out of the corpse and look for a new one. Sunlight is said to kill them permanently, but the places you need to search will likely be hidden away in the dark..." He trails off... frowning.

"There are ways... there are tales of ancient mages crafting spells to capture or destroy souls. There are stories documented in the archives that tell of the first men in these lands wielding weapons built to cut and pierce souls as well as flesh. I've had my men searching through the old treasure vaults in Overwatch for such a thing, but I have a feeling whoever is behind this has likely thought of that and secreted them away. Some of the old armories show evidence of burglary..." He pauses... taking a sip from his goblet.

"Make no mistake. This is not a natural phenomenon. There is someone flesh and blood behind this. If this... war... is ever to end, we need to find them."

[Harri-chan]

Ginny squirmed and wriggled as the Princess demonstrated just how weak she had become by pulling her onto her lap with ease. Her cheeks flushed pink, and she found herself staring at the chest of the pretty young woman while her soothing voice flowed through Ginny's ears. Her chest tightened slightly as she heard this wasn't just a silly bit of fun... but that the Princess actually did have need for a daughter in this plot to overthrow her Father and the Church.

The thought of being Queen of Watchwood should have been a thrilling prospect, but there was too much between now and then. Beside, she still didn't want to have to think of this woman as her Mother! Lifting her head, she met the gaze of the Princess and blushed, "Everyone in the Kingdom knows you don't have a child, Princess. They won't accept some story about you taking one in... they'll demand royal blood. This will never work... ".



------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Krystal let out a moan as the kiss deepened, and she closed her eyes, her fingers brushing through the hair of the Seductress as the tingles ran through her body. Heulwen and Caileanne watched in silence as the tall blonde priestess started to fill out. The child looked curious, but the white-haired paladin seemed impatient. Krystal pressed herself closer to Rose, their bodies rubbing as she wiggled her hips from side to side, causing the thin material around her thighs to swish back and forth.

[Blaze]

Jame's eyes widen as he quickly stands up from his kneeling position, his knives instantly in his hands. He knew that against a blade that size, blocking would only earn him numb arms, so he waits for the ghost-king to get close before sidestepping and slashing at his throat!

The Princess just giggles. "Oh but thats the fun bit! Once Rose gets back we will do a little ceremony... which will change peoples minds about that." She grins. "The no one will question that your my daughter! Rose has assured me it will work~"

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Rose continues kissing the tall priestess... who soon feels her lusts inflaming. She wanted all of the pleasure and power flowing into her... she wanted it desperately! Meanwhile, the blissful haze of pleasure that Nevrina had lived in for so long begins to subside... as the lust spirit drains out of her... leaving her feeling empty. Her body retains its voluptuous proportions and unearthly beauty... "A parting gift for being such a good girl~" Comes the demon's voice in her head before she vanishes completely... leaving Nevrina alone and in control of her body. She could still feel the lust that Rose had stoked in her... but now there was no pleasure from the demon to sate it...

Jame's eyes widen as he quickly stands up from his kneeling position, his knives instantly in his hands. He knew that against a blade that size, blocking would only earn him numb arms, so he waits for the ghost-king to get close before sidestepping and slashing at his throat!

Unfortunately as the thief steps to the side, the king stops... taking a step back and sweeping out with his two handed sword in a large arc.

[Harri-chan]

Ginny's chest tightened as she heard the next part of the plan, "What? A spell like that... it would take a ridiculous amount of power, far more than even Rose must have. If she had the power a spell like that would take... then she wouldn't even need to have allied with you", explained the little girl, unaware that far away, the Seductress was right at this moment recruiting her own paladins, priestesses and mages to aid her cause.

Her pretty green dress rustled as she squirmed in the arms of the Princess, all the grown up talk and memories of power making her feel so ridiculous in this tiny little body. However, even her own claims that their idea was impossible didn't ease her worries, as so far everything seemed to be going to plan for Rose and the Princess. For a moment, she was silent, as her mind ran over everything she'd been told, and then her eyes widened with some sort of realisation.

"I knew from that kiss you preferred women... ", she blushed.




------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Nevrina found herself kissing the taller Priestess as she regained control of her body, the whiteness returning to her hair as it's straightened out and formed into a ponytail. The elegant dress dissolved around her figure, revealing her curvy figure, clad in just purple lace bra and panties. Blushing, she continued to make out with Krystal as the Demoness was transferred between their bodies.

"Nev!", came Heulwen's relieved voice as she saw the red-haired woman transform back into her sister, albeit a far more curvy version of her sister than she remembered. Feeling the last of the Seductress enter Krystal, Nevrina broke the kiss and staggered back, letting out a little moan at the frustration caused by her new, insatiable lust.

The younger sister rushed to her and embraced her. It was returned, but Nevrina looked far from thrilled, "Heulwen... couldn't you at least show a shred of remorse at Ginny's defeat? I know you two didn't exactly see eye to eye... but she was our leader... ".

The Paladin backed up a little and smirked, "WAS... our leader. Face it, Nev, Ginny lacked ambition. She had her little city to rule over and that was enough... but now with Rose, we'll rule the entire Kingdom!". She kissed her sister on the cheek, and then turned, along with Nevrina and Caileanne, to watch as the Demoness took control of the Priestess Krystal...

[Blaze]

James's eyes widen as the blade is swing at him! He quickly ducks, the blade skimming his hood! He stabs his knives upwards, trying to stab the king in the arm!

She kissed her sister on the cheek, and then turned, along with Nevrina and Caileanne, to watch as the Demoness took control of the Priestess Krystal...

The princess smiles. "Oh dont worry your pretty head... we know what is needed... and are working on getting it." She says with a wink. At the little girl's final statement, she blushes. "I... what are you talking about?" She asks, looking away, face red.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sone Krystal's hair turns a deep scarlet... she soon looks like a taller version of Rose... as Krystal's mind is soon swamped with pleasure, pushed gently back as Rose takes control of her body, her moans slowly ceasing as a mischievous smile plays across her plump lips. Finally a cascading red silk dress appears on her form as she stretches. "Mmmmm... not bad..." Comes Rose's enchanting voice out from Krystal's lips. She looks over to Nevrina. "Sorry I had to cut our time short, sweetie..." She says with a wink.

James's eyes widen as the blade is swing at him! He quickly ducks, the blade skimming his hood! He stabs his knives upwards, trying to stab the king in the arm!

The blades meet the ethereal armor... seeking a joint in it... but the King sees his move and leaps backwards as the thief's knives scrape against the shining armor. He humps, drawing the blade back and squatting a bit... watching for his next move carefully.

[Harri-chan]

Ginny blushed at the wink, the fact she still found the Princess attractive made hearing all these plans even more embarrassing. She could have done so much by forming a union with the heir to the throne of the entire Kingdom, but now she would not be getting that, and was seemingly on the verge of losing her own order. However, seeing the reaction to her comment made her smile. Finally, something that had her slightly nervous.

"That's why you're making me your daughter. You need an heir... but you don't want to be with a man", she explained, looking a little smug now, despite being just six years old and in a pretty green dress. She sat up on her knees on the bed, red curls trailing down over her shoulders, her little hand reaching out to try and gently turn the Princess' face back to her. "Yet you still had Rose do this to me, even after the kiss. I guess I wasn't your type... but I wonder if I can figure out who is... ".



------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Nevrina bowed her head slightly as Krystal's transformation into Rose was completed, leaving the beautiful Seductress a little taller than before, but just as enchanting. "I understand, Mistress... ", she murmured in a calm voice, as her fingers softly stroked through Caileanne's blonde hair, although the child had soon left her side, rushing to Rose to hug her around the waist, her fingers grasping at the familiar red dress.

Heulwen nodded to the taller woman, "Very well... you kept your end of the deal... so I'll keep mine". The Paladin turned and walked back to her desk, where she unrolled a sheet of paper, and took a quill, to begin writing out names. Nevrina still looked a little uneasy at the dismantling of everything Ginny had built, despite her clear loyalty to the Demoness. "Mistress... ", she spoke, again in that quiet purr of a voice. "What will become of those who... don't willingly join you?", she asked, her white eyebrows arching above her green eyes.

[Blaze]

James squats himself, slowly walking around the ghost, trying to flank him. He knew he stood no chance in a fair fight...

It was time to get dirty.

Putting away one of the knives, he grasped the other with both hands and ran at the ghost!

[Vomica]

"Make no mistake. This is not a natural phenomenon. There is someone flesh and blood behind this. If this... war... is ever to end, we need to find them."

Ovvar considers all of this for a few moments. He settles down at the table, and says "...and that is all I needed to hear." The secretive rogue offers the king a small smile, "Listen. You sound like you know what is actually going on. Before I came to speak to you, others had spoken of you either being a fool or the cause of all of this." He adds after a few moments, "I did not know sunlight can harm them... do we know why? Or how? ...it might be possible to copy that... or at least contain the light. I know some illusion magic, and that's all just redirecting light." He head shakes once, "Anyways. That brings up three points."

He pauses for a moment, "One. Do we have any knowledge, at all, who this person is? I'd think some one of influence would be the likely culprit, since they have access to all those deposits of power and knowledge. Or it's someone who can divine that information -- and that's just as troubling. Two. Are there any options, at all? I... perhaps the knowledge of these ancient mages isn't lost..." He trails off once more, and says "...and three. I fought a person in the Arena. Vilehand. He was a man -- but more, and at the same time less -- I won't speak of this outside these chambers, but whatever he was... is still out there." Ovvar hmmms slightly, and murmurs "...he was in the sun... was he... demon in a host?"

"What will become of those who... don't willingly join you?", she asked, her white eyebrows arching above her green eyes.

The Princess's cheeks are still blushed, as her head is gently turned to look at the little girl. She looks uncomfortable as she speaks, before replying as she goes quiet. "Its not that I didn't like you... but... you were going to try to undo everything I had done. I had to stop you. But I didnt want you hurt..."

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Rose smiles down at Caileanne, patting her head. "Such a good girl." She looks up at Heluwen and Nevrina. She smiles wider. "Ah... the fun part. For those that will not serve willingly, we will have them serve unwillingly. Well initially. Soon they will be quite happy to serve..." She looks at Nevrina. "I've left some of myself in you... with it is my power. Embrace it... and use it in my name to convert those who would stand in our way."

As she says that, Nevrina can feel a stirring within her... she felt the demonic lust-driven power within her... seeking an outlet.

James squats himself, slowly walking around the ghost, trying to flank him. He knew he stood no chance in a fair fight...

It was time to get dirty.

Putting away one of the knives, he grasped the other with both hands and ran at the ghost!

The king watches him warily... he is obviously not unaccustomed to battle, his skills not dulled by the ages. As the thief charges him, he meets his charge with another swing of the sword!

Ovvar considers all of this for a few moments. He settles down at the table, and says "...and that is all I needed to hear." The secretive rogue offers the king a small smile, "Listen. You sound like you know what is actually going on. Before I came to speak to you, others had spoken of you either being a fool or the cause of all of this."

He was a man -- but more, and at the same time less -- I won't speak of this outside these chambers, but whatever he was... is still out there." Ovvar hmmms slightly, and murmurs "...he was in the sun... was he... demon in a host?"

The king sighs. "The whys and hows are not known to me. The people revered the spirits as gods... very few people tried to study them. And those who have are now exiled from the city by orders of the Church. So I am left with little..." He stares out of the window for a moment, his voice weary and frustrated, then he looks back. "People call me a fool. And a coward... There was a time where I would meet such challenges with my sword, however... There is more at stake here."

"The Church has long watched us with suspicion. They do not like our ways. Finally they gave me an ultimatum... reform my country or face a Crusade on my lands. I chose the lesser evil... damning myself in the eyes of my ancestors and my people. We are proud, strong people... For ages we have defended our own ways... but the outside world changes around us. A war with the Church would bring fire and death... they would rather leave nothing standing of the woods or the cities than let them remain in 'heresy'. I was left with no other choice..." He puts his hand over his eyes for a moment, sighing... then leans back in his chair.

"But I ramble... my troubles are not to be your concerns. If you seek to know what it is you face... seek out the Soul Killer Knights. Exiled they were, I was forced to do so... but they know more than any living man about the spirits that inhabit these lands. They would not help me. But perhaps they might aid a stranger. They are not evil... but proud. I was forced to deal them a grave insult... and I understand their anger."

[Blaze]

James ducks, moving to the side to avoid the swing as he unclasps his cloak! Grabbing the hood, he hurls it at the ghost king, trying to obscure his vision!
