Walking through the forest late at night a light breeze tickled his face no good scent on the air, "why did I yell it wasn't the smarts thing to do *Sigh*" he comes to a stop near the watering hole looking around to see if anyone was near see the cost was clear he sits down on a near by stone leaning down to pick up a hand full of stones to throw lost in thought.

Ashen remained silent, arms crossed as she watched the moon light dance on the gently rippling water. her hood up letting the shadows of the night and tress cloak her. She had talked with Fallen, about purging the Demon within her, which caused her her rage. causing her to fight with all around her, her friends...her family.
letting out a quite sigh she looked up to the moon, her leg dangled as she let it sway back and forth. closing her good eye, she thought of the talks she had with the drow. only to be disturbed by splashing. turning her head she saw Wulfric. skipping rocks along what was once gentle waters.
she remained motionless, watching as he continued.

Picking up on the scent of a demon in the air he stands up fast and armed his battle axe's blade gleaming in the moon light thought's of what Arkon said to him start flowing through his head "Mephisto"he said quietly his rage growing thinking is the Scale safe looking for the first real fight in long time eyes scanning the surrounding area shifting his eyes so he can see better in the dark the moon picking up the now red eyes and wolfish grin. as the air starts getting colder and colder in a large area the Norseman.

Rafaella packing some items before her departure of what the Norseman called "The High Heavens". She packs up the little one and heads over to see an elder who would be appropriate to drop off the little one. "Hi Gabriel, thank so much. Sorry for doing this on such short notice... I.." She gets stopped by the Archangel before she could finish. "You are needed, and I understand. Your little one is as you know, in good hands. He'll be sent when he is ready. You know how the time difference works. Say hello to the Norseman for me will you?" The Archangel said before sending her off.
Arriving in the same place she did almost a year previous, she starts walking around. "Wildgard! Home away from home, albeit dysfunctional. Hmmm, very dysfunctional. I do miss a lot of the people here." She said out loud. "Last I was here I got Ashen livid with me, I didn't mean to. I also got the monk sad, I hope Aera took that cure. I hope those necromancers are not around anymore." She said before choosing the Silver Scale to head to, to place her items by before continuing her midnight stroll. Upon coming up to the home, she notices a hole in the wall and the ground looking as if it was attacked by a person that was studying a mix of magical abilities, fire bring the main one. "Oh my. Which Wizard was it? Or was it that bizarre Wizard I heard about... Argno?" She said looking at the destruction. Taking out a piece of paper and a quill she writes in bold letters 'RAFAELLA'S ITEMS' then placing it on her stuff and placing in view of where only someone coming out of the Scale would see.
Leaving her stuff in a place she trusted, she decided to head to the forest. Walking at a fast pace it didn't take her long before she reached the treeline. Walking in, she started feeling very strange. The hairs on her started feeling electrified. "Is there a lightning Druid nearby?" She thought to herself. Continuing through the forest, going deeper and deeper. Feeling more and more weird, not quite knowing, yet feeling worried, but not for herself. "Hello" She called out loud while pulling out her sword. "I hold no prejudice against any beings. If there is someone there, make yourself known." She says while continuing deeper, putting up wards against undead and minor wards against demonic beings. "Please excuse me for placing up wards, I've been in Wildgard long enough to know the chaos here. It should be understandable. Make yourself known and I'll remove them." She continues getting closer to the watering hole.

Hearing the voice of someone he knew in the air liston to see who it is as the voice gets closer it's Rafaella "Rafaella I am near the watering hole tread lightly we our not alone get here fast" looking around to see if there is a clear path for the angel to take pulling out his longbow and drawing an arrow giving the tip a frozen glow that can be seen weaker then a touch but bright enough to see what is around you in a small radiance and firing it into the air "look to the skies" he shouts dropping his bow and picking up the battle axe.

Ashen remained silent, Wulfrics nose was more keen then she realized. to smell her even from down wind? either his scene of smell was as good as hers, or Cinder was more powerful then he let on. more reason to purge him from her body and sooner the better.
Ashen watched them, knowing now her presence was making both of them uneasy. with a simple flick of her wrist she held a small orb of flame. violet in color, and completely controlled. she choose to say nothing, but simply make her presence known

While she ran in the direction of Wulfric she could help but notice a violet flame, reminiscent of her elder Michaels. Upon getting to where Wulfric is she sheathed her sword and hugged him then she spoke to him for the first time in a long time. "Wulfric, is there another angel here? Is someone here from the Warriors House? There seems to be Michaels viole flame nearby. Who is here that is new? I'd like to meet them. Have you seen Aera yet? Sorry about all of my questions. It has been so long since I have been here, and I have missed you. Please tell me, is Ashen doing better. I hope she forgives me, I still feel badly for upsetting her by accidentally bringing you back. I miss her, she seems so motherly, fierce though but motherly. Ooh, I gather I missed their wedding, I really should have brought a gift. Oh, have you found out about the Winter Raider, your soul stones? Wait..." Rafaella stops, and has the look of sheer terror in her eyes. " Is she alright? Aera? Oh my goodness, what could he have done? Well, nobody came to visit and nobody was in Sovengarde. I heard no mention from Azreal. Where are they? Is it alright if I saw them? Was that what caused the hole in the wall of the scale?" She starts pacing around, freaking out more and more, then stopped. "I need to make sure she is alright. I remember how grief stricken she was. I may not personally experienced grief, but I know how it can affect someone. Add in a threat to their life, everything going on here. And why is that flame not calming me? My elders flame, or anyone that could posses his flame would calm me." She continued freaking out verbally, then turned to the flames direction. "Does Gaia have violet flames? The owner friend or foe? I don't know if it is or not as I have heard stories of the forest." She continues for a short time, taking a quick breath she took a moment to release healing energies that came as green light. "Well hey, when I start my warrior training. If my elder allows I may learn his violet flame. It's like my energy but instead of against undead like I do. It's against demons. Though I'm still getting used to demons that are friendly... As... Well... You remember Arkon explaining about Mephisto... Thankfully I still have my ability to sense intentions." She said before allowing Wulfric to answer her various question.

"Slow down Rafaella I'll answer one at a time first there is a Demon near by two I think it is responsible for that flame. as for Jarl Ashen and Fallen they never wed he was taken they made it back a moon ago and as for Aera I haven't seen her since I came back she is still a vampire" he said while counting in his head ~3,2,1~ looking at the sky and at the flame then a blue and white flickering light falling fast and landing in-front of the flame freezing the ground in-front illuminating the area for only a moment it was Ashen " ah Jarl Ashen sorry I almost hit you with that" looking over to the water then at Rafaella "do you want us to leave?"

"no, please...continue as if im not here...unless i can help...i am an Assassin for hire, do you need my talent? and family gets jobs for free, of course unless im not part of the scale anymore Pup, with how we have been treating each other lately...im not sure where my allegiances lay..."
Ashen spoke almost as emotionless as she looked down at Wulfric and Rafaella. with a sigh, she remembered her talk with Fallen.
"apologies....can i help?"

Rafaellas eyes widen. "Pup? How you've been treating each other? What happened to 'brother'? What happened to the woman who almost killed me for accidentally bringing back her brother?" She started saying while walking in Ashens direction. "That would technically make you, in a manner of speaking my sister-in-law. In a manner of speech. You know how worried sick that 'pup' was? What. And excuse my language. But what the hell happened to you? As you are family I have not the heart to harm you. How you managed to get a demon. How a demon managed to get a violet flame though is beyond me. I pray it one day does not turn on you and hurt those you care about. Whether you feel nothing right now or not. There must be someone that still gives you feelings. Still gives you life. As you said family. Someone with no hope would not say family.... What if this demon caused harm. My apologizes for stating this, but what if this demon has hurt, or does hurt a Fallen in the future? Please let me help you. I have seen you grieve, how many times. I know you don't want help, amend I can only help if you accept. But I also know you don't want pain to go around. Do you know how many times Wulfric wanted to come back to help you. How much he missed you. How much he talked about you. What has happened? I do not trust the demon. Of course... That's why I have come in uneasy. Of course why I have not been calmed." She says while getting close enough to Ashen she could see her but enough away both would be comfortable. "Listen, I'm sorry we didn't get to know each other well enough. I'm sorry. You... You asked if I need help?? Yes.. Yes I do. I need help to right the things that happened to you that are wrong. This doesn't seem like the Ashen you wanted to be. Not saying long ago was all to much the Ashen you wanted to be. I ask you to help me get you to be sincerely, genuinely happy. My gain, my sister being happy will cause me to be happy. I have no gains in deception, I'm no fallen angel. I have only despair in deception, I'd lose more. How can you help me then? I then shall hire you to help me." She speaks with her own motherly but respectful tone. Remembering all she could from what she has learned at Wildgard, on her travels outside Wildgard, from Wulfric as well as asking many others. "I'm a healer, it is my job to heal. What do you say?" She says, at this point looking directly into Ashens eye.

"not the heart to harm me?" Ashen laughed at the end. clenching the flame she held until it was chocked out. then from her great height she jumped down, landing on her feet as if it where nothing. walking toward Rafaella untieing her mask as she took the few steps it took to get close to her.
"every...member of my family has hurt me...EVERY MEMBER." Ashen growled as she got within a few inchs of Rafaella.
"you want to help me? no...theres no help any of YOU can give me...you could have helped him...but you didnt. i came back to get supplies and none of you offered to help. you all forced him and myself to walk into the dark alone...i dont give two shits anymore if anyone needs help, only him." As she spoke, the heat of the violet flames within her grew, the metal necklace and ring she wore and any metal on her clothing began to glow as hot as embers in a forge. even her eyes began to glow along with the strands of her hair.
"as for this..." Ashen pointed to her eye. "its a reminder...that i cant trust anyone but fallen anymore. healing from a holy being will kill me becasue of Cinder...give me one good reason why i should forgive ANY of you for leaving me alone...for leaving HIM alone!" After her rant ashen noticed she was rather pushy, fallens words echoed in her mind. growling she took a few steps back, the fires of rage still glowing bright in her body. closing her eye she focused and slowly the flame began to fad, along with the heat from her body. thought the metal only just started to cool it was still hot, as well as AShen herself. calming down wasnt her strong suit anymore.

Squaring off his body readying himself for anything "you met want to move Lassy no need to have him completely parent-less because someone has a temper and a hatred for those who did nothing choice or not" glancing over to Rafaella

Looking puzzled. "When did I say healing energy. I know that would cause pain as would my minor demon wards. Which is why they are not on. However the Scout of you would have known, and actually the assassin you currently are would know one can heal someone without using divine or white energy. Clearly you do not know me then if you could see me hurting someone. It is not within me. I can imagine why you are so quick to believe the opposite and nor can I be offended by your accusations. I cannot be offended by your words, I know where they are coming from. As you just said it. All I need to know and more you have just said." She looks at Ashen now with concern. "Then I must ask a few questions. Why do you ask if you could help, then say you couldn't care if people need help. How could I have helped you gather supplies? How could I have been there to make sure Fallen was not taken? How could I when I was not able to leave? Nor Wulfric. We couldn't leave. I was back on orders of my superiors and by their will could I come back. Something must be causing you to think either of us had a choice in the matter. As if both were there..... Oh no." Her eyes widened again while she sat down. "Oh no." She said again. "I... I am really sorry." She says, then takes a deep breath, readying herself for the worst, absorbing all of her healing abilities and angelic abilities to be temporarily human and gives Ashen a hug. "I'm sorry." She says before letting go.

Ashen froze to rafaellas embrace. why the hell was this angel hugging her. well she knew why, pulling away from her embrace she glanced to Wulfric then back to to the angel.
"I-I.. asked to help you becasue the Demon in me feed my blood lust, and makes me fight...but Fallen has begged me to start acting normal to the family...but i dont even know who i am anymore...letting cinder in awakened memories Lady Synaria locked away...this is the old me as much as the Ashen you know is." looking at Wulfric agian. "Hostility is met with Bloodlust and rage..." turning her gaze back to the angel. "kindness, is met with cold, and logic..."
taking another step back Ashen watched the angel and the wolf now. it was there move.

Rafaella still standing there as a human. "Logic?" She says out loud, the rest of her thoughts more internalized. "It only makes sense she feels some guilt, why else push people away. If she makes no time for anyone, she will be around Fallen all if not most of the time. She probably is never far from him. She must be feeling she needs to be there, regardless of anyone else competency, regardless of anyone elses intentions. Her blaming those who had no opportunity to protect him... It also must be internalized. This will be particularly difficult." She said in her internal discussion. Taking a breath in with a moment to focus on Ashens tone, noting how it sounds, how it made her feel then learning how to match it with her own voice. Folding her hands together she began. "Ashen. You are willing to blame those you had at least said you cared for. I am not claiming you to be a liar, I am stating your wording seems to be going in multiple different ways. You accuse them as if you would cast them out, to be worse than lepers, worse than the evils you have encountered. People that were given no chance to stop his abduction. You attempt to lay guilt upon people who, as you put it were in their own form of dark. I must then state that it seems with this, that you are attempting to redirect some guilt of your own you may feel. Do you, yourself feel guilt? Are you making a point to push everyone away to make it up to Fallen? I did not converse much with him, however from how he presented himself, it does not seem as if that would be what he would want. Then again due to how his and your dynamic works, you may not see how he presents himself to others, nor would he see how one may understand what he shows. So from what it sounds, you will wish to do whatever it is in your power to help him get back to how he once was an to make it up to him. For yourself, those who had a choice to be there when it happened, a choice when you asked for help, and for those who had no choice, that where logically unable to get supplies or stop the abduction. If that is the case, then it would only be logical as well this is how he wants you to be. As would he must be requesting your pushing people away. which in that case, we must respect both of your wishes and leave you be, yet near enough you may ask for help when needed. On the other hand, if it is that you are conflicted but Fallen wants you to keep people close, to a comfortable level. Whose wishes should we then follow? Yours, or Fallens? If you want to push us away what should we do if that is not then what Fallen wants." Rafaella finished, then flinched from the headache she was starting to endure. She remained, hands folded together, just a pale, wing-less human, her divine light still gone from her eyes, giving a soul-less look all the while hiding her soul.
