Death Itself

[Robin]

"You can resist him, Adanessa," the man on the ground below her said pleading for his life.
Robin was hovering above him. Her white wings had a shadow on them even in the sunlight. Her black eyes were streaked with gold and her black hair fell upon her back with great ease. She had a look of pity for the man below her. She lowered to the ground. Her feet landed softly on the cold surface between the moutains.
She knealt beside the man and whispered, "I don't think you understand. I can't resist him. Atleast not now."
She snapped her fingers and her wings disappeared.
"Adanessa...." the man looked worried.
Robin put a finger to her lips and the man didn't say another word. Fear was in his eyes.
"His hand is on you, Mase. I'm sorry but there is nothing you can do."
She put a hand to his chest as her hand glowed black. The man looked toward the sky. She removed her hand.
"Any last words?"
The man looked at her, "Why me?"
Robin smiled, "I guess you shouldn't of killed that girl. If you hadn't, it'd be Gabriel coming for you and not me. Also, you'd be destined for Heaven, not Hell."
She put her hand back on his chest. The air flew out of the man and he layed there lifeless.
Robin's eyes closed, "I should be sorry."
The man's body disappeared and Robin stood and looked toward the sky.
"I am sorry."


(occ: Since Leonardo disappeared, Robin was left without an RP. I hope this is ok. I was hoping the plot would write itself. )

Evander was standing on a small mountain overlooking the scene below him. He sighed. The time of his kind was over. In the old times the cities used to be filled with shrines dedicated to him and the other spirits, but now... Their places have been taken by other religions. Evander had to face it. The time of deities, demi-gods and spirits have waned.

Then suddenly he started to smirk.I wont let that happen. He thought in himself. He would find a way to make the people believe again in the ancient spirits. Evander looked at the angel beneath him. Maybe she could be usefull to him in some way. Evander was smirking. Soon the world will know his real name. With that final thought, Evander started to walk down the hill towards the angel. When he was close to the angel he just pretended to be a normal mortal, a traveling scholar. Evander made a small bow. "Greetings young lady." he said acting like he didn't see what the angel did a few minutes ago.

[Robin]

Robin heard the voice and turned around. She wore a slight smile that didn't match the expression on her face. She looked him up and down.
'Young lady?' she thought to herself.
Her hair blew in the breeze and a few strands strayed across her face diagonally. Her eyes feel on to his as she tilted her head just a lil to side. She didn't know what or who he was but she didn't tend to trust many people.
"Hi, you are?"

[virgillius]

Evander faked a smile. "Oh ofcourse. I haven't introduced myself. Where are my manners." He took another small bow. "Evander, Evander Almathea. Traveling scholar." Evander looked at the girl with a weird glance in his eyes. "And who are you, young lady?" He stretched out his hand. Evander's body seemed to have an unusual effect on the surroundings. The air seemed thicker and colder.

[Robin]

Robin didn't take his hand. Her eyes were cold and emotionless.
When she spoke, her voice was in a cold whisper, "Adanessa, also known as Robin. Satan's right hand."
Robin's smile faded just a little but the corners of her mouth hinted at a small smirk.
"Tell me, Evander," she added emphasis on the name, "what brings you here?"

[virgillius]

When Robin said she was Satan's right hand a mortal would be scared but Evander just smiled. He lowered his hand. "Well, I'm a traveling scholar and i was passing trough here to studie some ancient ruins a couple of miles away from here." Evander examined her xompletly, even her soul. His eyes gained a black glanse for a small moment.

[Robin]

Robin's voice remained steady. She didn't know who this man was or why he had even approached her but she knew something wasn't right.
She didn't care to ask him why he was talking to her. She didn't care. She showed no emotion on her face and her heart, what was left of it, was untrusting. Her mind, however, was curious.
"You obviously approached me for a reason. Mind tell me what it is you want?"
Her eyes became streaked with gold once more aa she watched him with suspicion.

[virgillius]

Evander was smirking. " Is it forbidden to have a confersion for no reasons these days?" For being the right hand of Satan she was a little to nervous. Evander expected that a being of that power would be more relaxed. Unless Robin noticed something about him.

[Robin]

Robin smiled, "It should be for us to have this conversation."
Robin crossed her arms infront of her.
"You look like that's not all you want. So, may I help you?"
Robin smiled. She wasn't trying to be mean but he didn't give her a reason for coming behind her. Did he see what she had done? She was confused.

[virgillius]

Evander looked right in Robin's eyes. It seemed like he was looking right trough her. "Yes, there is something with you can help me." He pointed at the ridge he was standing earlier. " I stood there a couple of minutes ago and i saw your... 'abilities." Evander lowered his arm. "This may be a rather odd question but do you believe in the old deities?" He asked while frowning. "You know, i mean the old spirits. The time before your kind, The beings that created everything. Even your master."

[Robin]

Robin's smile faded slightly, 'I have to believe in my master, don't I?"
Her voice had a coldness to it yet she was mocking him.
"However, I guess you could say I believe in the old spirits. I'll be glad to help you acheive whatever it is you want done, within reason of course."
She smiled as her black eyes shined on the man before her.

[virgillius]

Evander had a suspicious grin on his face. "Good. Very good." Evander took his backpack and opened it. From it he took a scroll and looking at the edges and its state it was very old. Slow and carefull he rolled it open. The scroll contained a map of a giant temple. The temple had a central court and five addtional wings.

"This is an old map of an ancient temple. I was planning on going there before i encoutered you." He looked for a small moment at Robin and then back at the map. " The temple was built millenia ago. It is even older that your master. It was dedicated to a certain group of spirits. The oldest of them all. They were called The Creators." Evander laid his finger on one of the wings, it was also the largest one. "This wing here belongs to the twin spirits, Asatar and Aegwyn. Asatar was the spirit of death and Aegwyn, his younger twin sister, was the spirit of life and together they created..." Evander looked at Robin with eyes filled with excitement. "The Chalice Of Life!" He waited a minute before continuing. " This is one of seven sacred artifact left behind by The Creators before they dissapeared and it is my goal to collect them all to keep them away from the wrong hands. Because of the blessing of Aegwyn the chalice has the power to create new life, a child or grant immortality. But because Astar also gave some of his power the Chalice has the power to break through the barrier of the underworld and bring anyone back to our world in its original body." Evander looked back at Robin. "Think of what an evil person could do with it. A person with dark motives could live forever and nothing could harm him. It would mean the end of Valaer." He was scratching at his chin. " No, it must be kept safe. Will you help me with this, Robin?"

[Robin]

Robin tilted her head and smiled. Her black eyes fixed on him, "The whole thing is facinating. However," she paused slightly as her voice became cold, "how do I know you're not one of these dark people who could do evil with it?"
She sighed and walked closer to him, "I'm a dark person, yes. Maybe even sinister but I'm not evil."
She looked in his eyes, "And for sake, I hope you're not either. I harm people who deserve it."
She stood up straight, "Now that we have that out of the way. I will help you."

[virgillius]

Evander putted the map awayin his backpack and chuckled at the comment of Robin. " The right hand of Satan saying she is not evil... that isn't something you'd expect to hear." Evander gave her a small smile. "Don't worry. I judge people on the intentions of their actions. It doesn't mean that if you kill people that you are automatic evil, dark or sinister." He closed his backpack, swung it over his shoulder and started walking. Evander pointed towards the horizon, at two hills. "The temple lies behind those hills. The walk won't take much time."

[Robin]

Robin muttered under her breath, "It would be so much easier to fly."
She sighed but nonetheless followed him. She didn't entirely trust the man but she didn't not trust him. She had been walking for no more than five minutes before she spoke.
Her voice was inquiring, "What are you?"
