-The afternoon glow soaked the city of (The Location on the map just bellow the 'a' in Corvania) The warm orange rays doing nothing to elevate the heat for locals and travelers alike. One such traveling cart has just pulled into its destination, Bringing an end to its 3 week journey. Three passengers disembarked as the driver headed to meet an Elf patiently waiting in the shade. \\ a female Oni and Male dwarf begun unloading crates from the cart. No special cargo, food and wine, ores and wood. as normal as you could get. \\

No special cargo, food and wine, ores and wood. as normal as you could get. \\
 "Where did you find this one?!" The elf seems quite interested in the Oni employee, eyeing her over as a butcher does the meat. \\
 "I found her on the path from Oxtrad's borders, Says she was heading south towards //Hazelpost// she stopped me asking for coins ha" he laughed " Well its been a while since i had beggars so bold, instead I offered her a job. I could tell just by looking, she was strong and capable, also didn't talk much....wouldn't cause any unnecessary complications." the driver says with a wink "Plus, You know Oni are rare this far from the mountains and i was down two men, it was a boon sent from Tyr"
-Raishin continued unloading the cart, pretending not to hear the convocation about her, Her eyes are on the task but her ears are trained on their convocation. \\
+Raishin continued unloading the cart, pretending not to hear the conversation about her, Her eyes are on the task but her ears are trained on their conversation. \\
 Several weeks had past since Raishin started her journey to Reton, knowing little about etiquette in the world. \\ She took the first job she was offered, A great opportunity to 'Fit In'. \\ At first the Driver was belittling and rude although his attitude has softened its still obvious that Raishin is thought as lesser. \\
 She doesn't talk much but always listening. the one other worker was a lone dwarf, Good friends with the traveler, apparently a favor had been called in.
-The warm climate of Corvania was undesirable to most visitors, but Raishin wasn't bothered by it. \\ the sun was setting to this day, last task before supper, then bed. \\

 "Can the she-beast at least speak?" the Elf's piercing voice cutting through Raishin's thoughts. followed by laughter from both the Driver and Elf. \\
 "Aye, she speaks but not well, but they don't need to speak, without them your goods would have never made it." \\

 The draconif form shifted its head close to the flames. "They are but men, they will not change their ways without violence. violence is what teaches us, brands us" \\
 Raishin moves into a meditation form "the Monastery teaches me to control you, to control my rage and so control my violence. i have been taught-" \\
-"THATS A LIEE! Don't lie to me Zerker! lying to me is lying to yourself!" the astral spirit flared up, like a living inferno swirling around Raishin yet she remained still in meditation. "Grafted to your soul i am Zerker, you known nothing that i do not. I see your memories and i know you do not forget them." \\

-Flashes of the pain inflicted to her younger sister, the abusive parents, and what happened for them to escape, penetrated her thoughts like spears of hot iron, fighting against it until she slammed the ground with mighty strength roaring in anger, the Astral spirit vanishing and the fire disappearing as she is plunged into the moonlit darkness again.

+Raishin looking into the flames once again until eventually sleep overtook her, falling into her nightmares.
+a scream. \\
+her scream? no, younger? her sister? no someone else. \\
+Raishin's eyes snapped open dragged back from sleep violently as a piercing scream vibrated withing her ears. Raishin jolted to a stance, ready to fight yet her opponent was a a small Tiefling girl, no older than 5 or 6, tears rolling down her face and blood. she looked worried, scared, terrified, horrified, not of Raishin though. \\
+Then the roar of people, angry people came into notice. Raishin slowly peacing together what's going on. //Danger// Her senses flared up. she moved quick to see the orange glow of an angry mob approaching quickly. \\
+"This way! into the house! I saw the monster go there!" Drawing weapons.
+Raishin looking at the little girl, seeing her lost younger sister. she growled to herself and then softened her expression. \\ "This way little one. please" \\
+The Tiefling girl shook her head clutching her torn stuffed toy, the crowed approaching quickly and she took notice. \\
+"There is no time to argue little one. i will not hurt you a promise" gesturing for her to come over, The young girl did. Raishin wrapped her in a blanket and took her deeper into the house. finding a closet still intact somewhat she smuggled her inside. \\
+"do not leave until i say so" the young nameless girl nodded still with tears in her eyes but a glint of hope.
+Raishin walking out of the house and standing in the middle of the road, her face covered by shadow. a tower, a wall to protect. \\ the mob slowed as they approached. out stepped the same guard from earlier in the day. \\
+"You will leave, return to your homes, hold your families and pray the night is short" her voice echoed over the moonsoaked sand and there was pause before laughter.
+"We are here for the girl, the devil. We found her filthy parents within our towns walls. Expunge them we did but she escape. The lords work must be complete" Several voices erupting from the crowed as more chimed in with further filithy comments and slander. riling up. then the comments turned to Raishin. "She is a beast too. A DEVIL. probably related. They are spawning too rapidly" \\
+//They had killed the girls parents, probably right in front of her.// Raishin's thoughts turning into the draconic voice bound to her soul \\
+"You see Zerker, only violence teaches, they will NOT be swayed by your words...only...your...ACTIONS" \\
+The same fiery Astral energy began to manifest around Raishin once again. \\ "Filthy swine" Forming a mane of austral energy over her own hair. and a mask depicting the demons from lands far over the horizon. \\ "You are corrupt. DISGUSTING" \\ Her voice boomed, making the ground shake and torches held by the mob extinguished as some of them lost their balance. A Draconic Astral form manifested around Raishin with its maw gaping open. \\ "You cannot be allowed any further" \\ She plunged her arm into the maw, pulling out a steel KanaBo' laced with orange sunset ore. the weapon would have weighed a horse yet the Oni swung it around as if it were a twig. sweeping it around until in plunged into the ground, cracking through he stone road.
+The crowed looked shaken but wouldn't back down. "Its a trick! Demon Magic! it is trying to shake our resolve!" \\
+"That's right...dog fuckers. i am but a trick, come! test your metal, I will show you true strength" her voice booming, two voices talking the same Raishin's and the Astral dragon enveloping her flesh in Astral energy. \\
+A soldier on horse back was first to charge, Spear drawn, A small side step had it fly past her, a mighty punch delivered strait to the horses head, crushing it, pulverizing it as it squealed and buckled under the force of a giant. blood splattered from the creature as its rider flu right over head, collected by the draconic claw and splattered against the road in pieces. \\
+Rasihin Began to laugh as the horse spasmed and fell over twitching, Her chuckle erupting into a bellow, the madness of rage and hate drenched her expression. \\ She raised her weapon to the mob ,"Which one of your vile swine fuckers is next?!"
