Welcome to Gaia! ::

Esabel stepped out of the portal and closed it as Cameron stumbled to a stop in front of her in the relatively dry area of the ruins of Kula's demolished home. She ignored him as she moved towards the ruins and knelt in front of the entrance, placing her hand on the ground in front of her and sending her dark energy into the earth.

She opened up the tunnels and started to head down into them but paused to turned back to Cameron with a face completely devoid of emotions as she considered him for a silent moment. She finally held one of her hands up in front of her face and blew over it, a tendril of her dark energy forming into a dark swirling crystal sphere that she placed in one of his hands, "This will take you wherever you want to go. Transportation problem solved," she told him softly then headed down into the tunnels.

As she moved further down into the tunnels, she made the decision that if no one was going to like her for herself, she was just going to be by herself.

Esabel glanced at the new stranger, even tilted her head at him a bit then gave a shrug of one shoulder, "How would you feel if nobody liked you the way you are? Constantly wanted to change you to be more 'normal'? Even hated you? They don't like me, but they all still want to use me for something. Master for payment, Cam here for transportation, even the nice man wants to change Esabel... So Esabel will be alone now," she told him simply then turned to head into the tunnels.

As she walked, her hips swayed beautifully, her steps delicately placed, and her mind a swirl of chaos that moved from thought to thought without ever stopping. Her dark energy spread out around her, moving down the tunnels to get rid of the stupid golems and ghouls and turning them all into sleek reptilian hounds that bounded around her playfully, a few shifting into miniature dragons that moved more like bats and ate like vultures.

But it was the level of power to her dark energy that was probably the true allure to her for most people. It was a unique power, something only she was able to use.

As Lareth had seen, and dismissed, she was delicately beautiful with a dark aura of pure evil wrapped up in the contradiction of pure innocence. She could be seductive without even trying and gleefully tear people to bits without any thought that it might be wrong to do so. But at the same time, she desperately wanted to find someone who simply liked her for who she was.

She tried not to listen to him. She really did. But he did sound a bit pitiful to her. She finally stopped walking and let the hounds mill around a bit, tilting her head at him as her dark eyes narrowed at his face. Her mind considered several things: that he might be telling the truth, that he might be lying to her, that her puppies needed to run off some of that energy, she needed to change clothes, she wanted to eat some plums for some strange reason, and her elbow itched.

The elbow itch she could do something about. The hounds, she sent running off down the tunnels. Him... She considered him another moment then gave a soft huff as she turned and started walking further into the ruins, "If you's is lying to Esabel, you get something bad to happen to you. Don't know what, but I'll come up with somethin'," she told him without fear as she looked into room after room along the way.

She finally stopped with a frustrated sound, "This place is boring now... I need new clothes and fresh plums and I'm not gonna find it here..." she commented then turned to the stranger, "Okay, do you know where Esabel can get those two things? I wouldn't mind a little bloodshed right now, but I'll take what I can get..." she said to him, sounding a bit grumpy over it but she really didn't have much choice in the matter.

She put a hand to her chin as she considered the options then gave a soft sigh, "Elves it'll have to be... Esabel is avoiding Master for now... Just hope Loki isn't too mad about his staff..." she said to him, adding the last part to herself as she remembered turning that into a snake.

She looked around and noticed that they were alone in the tunnel, her hounds having gone off to chase things, and tilted her head at him a bit again, "I could take us there, but portal tends to spit me out into odd places sometimes... Could you take us? I haven't been to the Elves in a long time..." she pointed out, clearly being way too trusting of the stranger.

"Oh! I'm Esabel!" she introduced herself as if she'd only just remembered to do so. Of course, she had only just remembered...

Cameron Saw that she was not happy as soon as she stepped through the portal. After a quick backward glance he saw that she had played a few tricks before leaving the throne room. He could not help but smile as he realized he liked this girl more and more.

Right before he was about to speak, he saw her kneel down and place her hands on the earth. He could feel the energy coursing through he as she pumped a little energy down and shortly after, the ground opened up to reveal a tunnel. He watched her curisouly for a second as she looked like she was playing with a ball. He accepted it curiously and rolled it around in his hand. He could feel her power go through it making it a little mystifying. "Alright well Esabel, I had not actually intended to own you. I wanted to make you an offer. But if it truly is your wish to be alone I shall let you be alone." He stuck the crystal in his pocket and started to walk away.

After walking for a few minutes, he could feel the power in his pocket. He leaned up against a tree and pulled it out, once again admiring the craftsmnship of the small device. "Well" He shrugged after one last backward glance. "Time to go off and earn some more income." He Held the Crystal out in front of him not entirely sure on how to use it. "She did say that it would take me wherever I want to go. Well, I want to go to the highest bidder for a contract" He said adding the last part talking to the stone.

A portal opened in front of him and he looked at it unsure for just a few seconds. "Well, here goes nothing." He said as he stepped through. He then immedietly appeared right in front of Esabel. "uuuuuh, I do not think that is how this is supposed to work..." He said staring at her
