    COTY

    Assailant -- Year 226

    QOTY

    "But the dream, the echo, slips from him as quickly as he had found it and as consciousness comes to him (a slap and not the gentle waves of oceanic tides), it dissolves entirely. His muscles relax as the cold claims him again, as the numbness sets in, and when his grey eyes open, there’s nothing but the faint after burn of a dream often trod and never remembered." --Brigade, written by Laura

    such is life, such is death.



    “Now that’s an idea,” she said with a wicked looking smile that didn’t quiet reach her eyes…but did show a glint of fangs hidden between blunt equine teeth. “I do quite enjoy hunting.”

    She hadn’t always. It had taken her some time to determine what it was that her body required for nourishment, and longer still how to get her strange body what it wanted.  Hunting only became activity that she enjoyed – that she craved – after her trip to the mountain as a youngster.  The faeries had taken her equine form and given her a lioness’ body to live in as she learned what it was to be a predator.

    And the costs that came with such a lifestyle.

    It was during this task that Livinia learned of bloodlust and of the danger it posed. She still struggled, occasionally, with the need to hunt and draw blood even when her body was sated. The very mention of the hunt stirred something inside her, but it was easily quieted by her intrigue for this stranger who the shadows sang so sweetly to. 

    She did wonder, for more than a fleeting moment, what she would do if they were confronted by these monsters. Perhaps she would be more concerned if she knew what they were capable of – what they had done to her mother’s favorite pets.  But her ignorance of the true threat that lurked in the shadow was enough to keep her attention entirely on the stranger.

    ”And what about you? Are you a hunter or are you…” Her voice drifts off as she observes him more closely – her crimson eyes again drawn to the shadows she knows so well. Because he certainly isn’t prey.

    ”Something else?” is what she finally settles on. Somewhere in her mind it registers that she should probably introduce herself, or go through the normal formalities expected when meeting someone.  But she quite likes this game, and is rather attached to the more interesting direction this conversation has already taken.
