Candy looked at Rhia, smiling slightly still, she'd seen the reaction to her brand, she got that from most people, which wasn't surprising. She backed off and watched, and then the wall exploded...what in the name of the nine hells was going on here? She looked at the thing pointing at her...and backed the hell up, sinking down and pressing into the side of the hearth. Her breathing was very quick as she struggled to not hyperventilate, she really wasn't one for combat...if one couldn't tell. She scurried away under tables, ducking quickly between the stunned townspeople's feet, trying to make it to the hallway and to her room, she needed her cloak if she was headed outside into this weather.
She made it into the hallway eventually, panting with the effort of making it into the hallway. She hurried down and snagged her cloak from in front of the fire, pulling the familar darkness around her, it had mostly dried, thankfully. She tied it, and slipped her money pouch into the bag into it's pocket and looked for a way out, time to run, time to run, just don't stop and look behind you because it'll be right there, stalking you. Just like the eye, if you were so inclined, and she wasn't. One of the few things that had happened to her in the past few months that she was thankful for, she'd seen what the eye could do to you...drive you mad. She shook off her momentary reverie, and slipped out of the small window that was in her room, and fell with an "OOF!" out of it, before quickly making it back to her feet and taking off into the woods.

((I do believe it's time for Mehran to catch up with the Times. Darn administrative mind, so responsible before the fun!))
Mehran nodded at the creature before her. The iciness of his demeanor struck her two-fold; his evilness had a frost to it, as well as his simple state of being. The Storyteller was well-off standing away from him. She'd grown accustomed to the warmth of the South and didn't want to feel the chill in her bones. Next time, she'd see to it that the battle came to her. In the meantime...
"You have me to thank for your release; me and my djinneyeh, Pyra." Mehran nodded to her djinn. "You've served me well. Do you desire to return to your bottle?"
"No, Master, with your will, I'd stay here and guard you." Pyra clearly did not trust Tormir. It was just as well; Tormir was the type to trick. Mehran grinned, privately. No one was more sly than the Fox.
"Therefore, I do believe a favor is owed in return." Mehran's eyes, ever their unique shade of gold-red, shimmered in the limited light left them. "What it really comes down to is, do you want to be refrozen? I can leave you there for an eternity...unless you acquiesce." Ah, extortionism...

OOC: wtf skeith! frost elementals!?! 0.o ans wtf is a goblinoid lolz! and what artifact and what girl is he talkin about? BIC: Witesh quickly changed to her true form when the the slim figure pointed her way. Her cloak fell to the ground as she leaped from the chair between Skeith and the ice elemental. Her fangs, white daggers gleaming in the low light, were bared and ready as the crazed farmers fled for their pathetic lives. She didn't really even pay notice to Candy, she just took her as one of them... "I'm guessing that your the Death Knight that he speaks of..." she growled back at Skeith, not taking her fixed eyes off of the slim one...

Rhia counted her coins for a moment before the elemental had managed to push through the wall. She looked up from the coins, sliding them back in the hidden pocket and looking at the strange, crystalline looking creature, then over to the side, seeing it seemed to be talking to that same familiar face.
"Oh dammit, Skeith.. How did we end up in the same fecking tavern?!"
Rhia grabbed up the meager things she'd brought for sale and pushed them out the front door and to her wagon, throwing them in the back and hoping she didn't destroy too much. As she jumped in the back to look for her crossbow, she saw a small, grotesque looking version of a human running towards her wagon.
"Oh what the hell do you think YOU'RE after?" Rhia yelled and grabbed her crossbow, shooting once but watching as the creature dodged to the side and her bolt buried it's self to the fletching into the ground. She reloaded quickly and watched as the creature jumped at her, one clawed hand grabbing onto the edge of the wagon. Rhia took aim and shot it again, this time nailing it between the eyes.
She looked to the side, hoping her horses were still attached to the wagon, but unfortunately for her, it appeared the stable boy hadn't been lazy in this stable and had actually done his job. She cursed under her breath and grabbed her bolts, taking aim at the next creature that stood near her, letting loose another bolt.

"I do indeed owe you. My thanks to the both of you. However, there is a slight catch to this all. Even your djinn couldn't tell you this about me. As I owe you, I will indeed show you. You may have a use for me in true form..."
Saying this, Tormir stepped back and shed his brigandine. The djinn looked at him with the most curious expression. He grinned and looked back. "Something wrong milady? You need not be alarmed. If I wanted the two of you dead, you would be thus." It happened very quickly but he was sure a smart one like Mehran wouldn't miss it. He grew, reaching nearly twelve feet in height. His features melted from human to something grotesque. Something in human. Something demonic. One moment a large man with a slight look of decay to him was standing there and the next it was a Balor. The near 12 foot tall humanoid Tanar'ri(demon) had a small mane of something, bull like horns and batlike wings. His hands were clawed and he was wreathed by a ring of frost. Most of his kin followed fire but not Tormir. He chose ice as his following and oddly it had just been turned on him. He had bestial features to his face but other than that looked vaguely human. His command of magic was tremendous and his skill as a killer was more than enough to be reckoned with. When he spoke again it was a deep rumbling growl. "Now what would you have me do most esteemed savior of the dark ones? How might I serve you?"

((OOC:: I hope this introduction is alright, as I haven't read the roleplay. Tell me if I need to change anything, or Rhia, if its too awkward and you want me to enter in another manner.))
A sigh of relief passed through the rose-lined mouth of a young lady, one who was terribly weary from her wanderings, and glad to have found civilization in the form of a tavern. Though she doubted her senses as it had been days since her last encounter with anybody, and it was possible that her mind was playing tricks once more. She didn't trust herself after happening upon what she believed to be a dancing mushroom. Shivers went down her spine and shook her body as she approached the small building and placed her slender hand upon the door's handle, when she noticed a bolt fly into the ground right next to her. Needless to say she jumped, a bit startled (rightly so), and looked to its orgins. A pretty woman fending off midgets. "Huh." She shook her head, convinced that she was just delirious from her lack of sleep. "But," she muttered to herself (she has a bad habit of it), "just to be sure..." The maiden unsheathed her prized rapier, Aer, and almost skipped to one of the small humanoids, impaling it on the end of her sword. The sudden tang of copper on her lips piqued her curiosity and made her wonder if the range of the blood spurts depended on how hard her thrusts were. So she started poking it. Agayne, and agayne, until she was quite satisfied with its mangled corspe. Only then did she realize that she had ruined a perfectly decent dress when she looked down to see blood splatters in various locations across her admiral's coat and boots. "Oh, bother."

Rhia looked at the cute maiden worrying over her dress which she has just given a healthy dose of blood spatter to and actually stopped shooting to physically scratch her head. The girl had repeated stabbed a corpse which Rhia could've sworn made her look like she was going to giggle only to follow it with such an understatement at the look of her clothes. She rose an eyebrow and jumped off her wagon, giving the girl no more thought as she had other things to preoccupy herself with. She looked to the side and saw another creature approaching the small girl before her. She shot another bolt into that one's chest and reloaded, creeping to the side to see how many were left in the tavern. It seemed as if everyone in the tavern was stuck, simply staring at the creatures.(OOC: or else not posting.. cough, cough)
Rhia dropped her weapon to her side and sighed loudly. "Oh for feck's sake... kill them!!"

"Kespin'lich endr onvis!" Skeith yelled out at the Warlock. It was black speech used between dark magic users. Skeith had told the warlock that his blood would be quite sweet... Skeith eyes let off a powerful blue glow as so did his sword. He smiled wickedly and released his spell he had been charging. The icy goblins that ran at him, their flesh seemed to melt like snow on a warm day. They let off a horrible smell...
"Diana, he wants you. What are you hiding?" Skeith yelled at Diana as he ran through the warlocks minions. "Don't just stand there run or fight!" The frost elemental came smashing down on top of Skeith with a mighty blow. His left arm had been frozen solid. Skeith knew he was in trouble but still had tricks up his sleves. "Bidroi dumûlarz matûrz" Skeith chanted and the dead around him began to rise, looking to feed for their new master...

"I hide nothing!" She yelled in confusion while watching the Death Knight raise the dead. Then she took aim on the slim figure that controlled the frost elemental, hoping to be able to stop its raging at the source. He didn't even see her coming. She aimed for his jugular and launched herself off of her powerful haunches, fangs bared and ready to kill. He got lucky and she missed. He had raised his arm and she had gotten a hold of it instead, but she didn't let go... She proceeded to drag him about the tavern shaking him about like a rag doll as her teeth tore away the muscle in his arm. He screamed in shock and pain, and she grinned loving it... The Death Knight was right, she thought, his blood is quite sweet.
Before she knew it she was surrounded by his minions. She called to the ferret still upon the table, "Loki, find me a blade! Hurry!" The ferret dropped to the floor and disappeared. She ran dragging the wizard with her, but the horrid creatures were getting closer with every step soon they would be upon her, it was only a matter of seconds... At least I've distracted the frost elemental some what, she thought, ...now where is that damned ferret!?!
