    “The… a-ter?” The way Illia mispronounced it told him that no, she had no idea what a production was. “It sounds like you have a full life.” Lia wondered if maybe she should try to do more human things, the feeling spurred on by his positivity; the woman had cleaned her bowl whilst the Orc was...

    "Swords, and a few other things..." The man lay lifeless on the floor. Not literally lifeless. But the way he flopped around when his cage was banged and lay face down there afterwards gave Illia a little fright. In slight awe she hurried after the little demon, completely forgetting her act...

    Private The Great (Tiny) Escape

    A little scared…? Well, she was certainly startled. At first, the transformation left Illia aghast, but not with any kind if in-built fear-- humans feared demons. That was natural. To a Unicorn, death had never come at the end of a demons claws or fangs but in the hands of humans… and so, her...

    She was right; her ludicrous bowl-scraping and other actions had caused the Orc to positively glow and beam in a manner that she thought impossible for Orcs to do. They were scowlers and sneerers, their tusks shown off to the line of their gums in aggression as they snorted like bulls; but Roki...

    They'll be back. It was not as if she wished to make herself scarce; a month alone in the wilderness as a creature of company tinged the mind with a sort of sadness that could not be easily shaken, yet… with that admission, Lia paused her incessant chomping for a moment to spare him a solemn...

    “Without your disguise, yes. I do not think… you currently look frightening enough.” Illia said this with a hint of awkwardness, mostly because neither of them did. People did not take her soft features and sparkling eyes seriously enough as it was, let alone… with whatever Thraah looked like...

    Garnish? She did not know what a ‘garnish’ was, but by the look of pleasure upon his face the woman gleaned that her gift had been well received. It was perhaps only for the promise of warm soup that Illia did not seek to gnaw on the leaves herself (was it bad manners? Would it be rude?) and...

    Private The Great (Tiny) Escape

    Illia spared the other no emotion of surprise, but the subtle, single flickering of her eyes was her being taken aback-- it was not for the sliver of the others powers, it was for the idea that Thraah would leave her behind. Sure, they had no commitment to each other bar being held within the...

    She did not care a lick about his staring. If she wasn’t so thin she would have probably been beautiful, Illia thought idly to herself. At least to the two-legged. The woman had realized early in her adventures that mortal-folks wore clothes to curb some inner desire of theirs that made them...

    Private The Great (Tiny) Escape

    “I am afraid the universe is bound by laws… it is a natural truth of the world. It is simply that some species, they make rules that seem… to have been birthed from cruelty and nothing else.” Illia was not arguing, but gently reasoning; Unicorn’s and their laws were like a mane on a lion, they...

    Private The Great (Tiny) Escape

    Illia blinked her rounded, heavily lashed eyes in a manner that would be normal on most people, but on her, this was the first real emotion she had actually shown upon her face; surprise. They were the same. At first, the unicorn didn’t know what to do with this information as Thraah seemed...

    Private The Great (Tiny) Escape

    “I… did not mean to offend you. I meant… your kind... species...” Were species not a ‘thing’? A little scolded by the others words, Illia decided she’d keep her mouth shut on the matter lest she get into danger with a creature she knew nothing about. They were ‘trapped’ there, after all, and if...

    Private It's Not Done Cooking

    A large part of her was glad for the others’ breezy personality; many a-time others had bared their fangs at her for the lack of liveliness Illia spoke with, offended in some way by a tone they themselves had forged in their head. After all, she was not being rude, the woman was simply being...

    The orc’s kindness was taken for granted; it had been the appropriate response, after all. To allow a fellow creature to starve whilst you toiled over an entire pot would have been not a cardinal sin, but a moral injustice that would have to be scorned. If she had something to offer in return...

    Private The Great (Tiny) Escape

    What manner of… creature was this? As Thraah was hauled into her cell with all the decorum of a farmer catching a squealing pig, Illia wondered if she should perhaps move the sour-tasting hale-bale she had been occupying to make room for the new-comer… but that took effort. Effort was taxing...

    Private The Great (Tiny) Escape

    How loathsome. Why did the stalls have lookouts? The village faire had to have had at most twenty people occupying its few make-shift store fronts, so why had they anticipated thievery as if their little town actually attracted any kind of meaningful criminal front? Well and truly, for the...

    Private It's Not Done Cooking

    She was exceptionally talented at avoiding things. The Blight was the tang of rotting flesh, the souring of organs caught against any light from on high, the still-water of algae in many shades of green… and so, Illia simply wandered in the opposite direction. There wasn’t much that stirred her...

    Illia, The Tainted Stray

    CHAPTER II ; The path of the Stained, and History. To be ‘Stained’ is to be born into the world as anything other than a Unicorn. To put it bluntly, they believe that every other creature has a marked soul that allows them to commit the evils that Unicorn’s could not; these ‘stains’ grow...

    CHAPTER I ; Unicorns, the Tainted, and the way of the Just. For as long as magic has woven itself into the fabrics of Khurun, there have been Unicorns. Many believe they were a splinter of the first Devahni, those who were bound by an oath of loyalty to the forests to deliver a wickedness...
