Her name was Ash.Kenji thought deeper, she had been a warden. Once designated with guarded the elvish prison that housed the evil spirits of the land. The warden had been egregiously wounded and was evacuated just before the humans attacked.
There she had learned of their G.o.ddesses capture, and while the spirits that gave her power were stolen away too, she alone had the martial ability required to fight without their support. She had tracked down the G.o.ddesses disappearance to the human capital, and there had found naught but her end.
Kenji was crying, unable to go any further. The woman"s bravery was peerless, several of her companions having lost their lives along the way. In the end, even she had died, none the wiser that her "G.o.ddess" was a parasite that thought minimally of her.
But he also remembered the good.
Before Violet had arrived, the elvish king had died a cursed being terrified of sunlight. His curse had infected the others of the royale family one by one, all electing to put themselves into the ground before they withered as their king had.
Including a girl, barely born before she choked on soil.
Seeing that same girl arise without the slightest fear of sunlight...no one cared that she was purple. No one cared that she was blindingly beautiful, nor that she could summon purple crystals while not even a single year old. She had united them, and without her return, the elvish people of the Sun would no doubt fall back into the curses clutches again.
Rubbing the tears from his eyes, Kenji left the room he had been hiding within to meet Violet.
Instantly she seemed as if a walking angel once more, absolutely perfect in every way. And that"s when Kenji knew, this elf named Ash had been in love.
And apparently, was still very much in love.
The rush of emotions was as deep as the sea, as strong as a gale and as intoxicating as absinthe to leave Kenji swaying. His pupils dilated, his vision turned rosy, and all thoughts but Violet left his mind as soft as a summer breeze.
She was beautiful, s.e.xy, wise and brave. She was n.o.ble, kind, romantic and fierce.
She was perfect.
"Kenji...are you ok?" Violet said with a hint of a gorgeous smile that pierced Kenji"s heart like an arrow. Extending his trembling hand, he clasped them in her own and drank deeply of her mere image until his heart bounded fast as a rabbit in heat and his ears were filled with the bellows of love.
"Y-yes..."Ash- Kenji said. Pulling his hands away, sanity returned for only a short time before he once again returned to staring into Violet"s dreamy amethyst eyes. Like pools of violet speckled with pinkish-purple dots.
"I"m going to go wash up, you should come with," Violet said.
Ash was helpless to refuse, following like a personal attendant.
The next hour pa.s.sed like a dream, Ash scrubbing Violet head to toe, while she stared slavishly at Violet"s naked body. Ash served her dishes for her, after checking it for poison with her own tongue. Ash opened doors for her too and fulfilling even her slightest whims with gusto- nay, with the utmost fulfilment.
Once they returned and found Tenko angry at being left behind, Ash just pushed the wolf girl aside and continued to obsess over increasingly minor details of Violet"s physique. The curve of her hips, the gap between her thighs, the soft lips and softer eyes.
Until they were interrupted, that is.
"Ladies, how are you this very fine evening?" Said Almanac, his usual two girls glowering at them from the second floor.
"Could I invite you upstairs for a drink or -" Having placed a hand on Violet"s lower back, Almanac soon found Ash"s boot-knife at his throat.
"Back. Off," Ash hissed with twitching eyes and a volcanic feeling of hatred for this man who would touch her dearly beloved. That back"s was only Ash"s to touch, and even then with the greatest respect and a heart filled with devotion.
"Do not threaten a wizard and expect things to go well for you, my dear," Almanac whispered as his eyes turned to slits. Yet smiling he seemed not at all alarmed, even while the happy bantering of the nearest adventurers died out, and all eyes fell upon the quarrelling trio.
"Kenji, stop," Violet whispered and blushed furiously.
Slowly, Ash pulled away the blade- Kenji clawed his way back into his own mind. Immediately he closed his eyes so as not to see her, and stopped breathing so as not to even sniff a hint of that intoxicating scent.
"Pardon me," he said as he stumbled to the door.
"Dearest elf, are you quite alright? I didn"t mean to scare you," Alamanac said, grasping Kenji"s shoulder. Shoving his hand aside, Kenji forced himself away.
"Nearest Guild leader, it is I who should apologise..." Kenji made it out of the keep and into the night. Even though that was the chance to finally grow close to the guild master, he could not risk Ash taking over again.
It would be a fate too horrible.
