Fear was not something Evalin felt much anymore. Fear was for those creatures that knew death was but a breath away. Fear was for those who could live. Fear was for those who had much to lose... Fear was not something Evalin was lucky enough to have. She was alone in the world. Adrift in a sea of time, lost on a voyage without any clear end. Some called it strength, to not feel fear, yet Evalin knew the truth. Fear was what made people strong. It drove them to become better, more than they were before, pass their limits and achieve great things. Fear of death keeps people living, fear of being weak keeps them growing stronger. Fear of rejections forces them to learn and act in a proper way. If you do not have fear, in truth you are simply stagnant. Thus it was that despite the threats, and the bodily lifting of her form from the ground, Evalin simply felt... nothing. Her eyes roved over the constrictor, noting points where she could strike. The knife was not in her hands, but with this new power her entire body could be made into a weapon. No matter how strong the Dhani were, they were still alive. Thus it was a very simple thing to snuff out their flame.
Eventually she was set down, more words of so little consequence washed over her and Evalin simply watched impassively as the Dhani left, apparently grown bored with the entire situation. The res around her dissolved, and now she saw the error in her ways. She could almost kick herself for being so foolish. She had shown her magic to another, and surely word would spread... You were right my dear Tsenrika... I was a fool.
The shift in her mind confirmed the thoughts of the Irylid leaned toward agreement, She now knows... She is a threat, a loose end...
She will have to die... Be damned, another task that must be accomplished if all is to go smoothly. She blinked, suddenly remembering that Aka was still trapped. Stepping closer to the girl Evalin looked up at Aka's chained formed. She took a moment to enjoy the sight, the girl trapped and bound in restraints. In a way Evalin enjoyed what she saw, and...
Evalin smiled slowly, her face growing full once again as her teeth returned to normal, her djed returning to its usual shape. With hands and feet Evalin crawled up the device until she was face to face with Aka, looking down on the girl with a curious expression, "I can see why my Mistress enjoys such places as this..." Evalin traced a finger down the girl's neck, over her shoulder and the middle of her chest, "It is... very entertaining. Perhaps I will remember these acts in many years to come. For now Mistress... The craving is upon me. I require blood..." She licked her lips, leaning down over Aka, her teeth scraping her neck, about to bite when... The cuff on Aka's right hand opened.
Evalin leaned back, with a small smile, "As my Mistress commands though. I shall wait to be given and never take without her permission." With that Evalin threw her leg off the side of the bed, standing on the floor once more so that she could begin unocking the cuffs at each corner.
A show of merciful submission...? Tsenrika asked slowly.
Merely a ploy to gain trust. Evalin responded shortly. The last of the restraints were removed, and the nuit would step back, power her head with her hands clasped before her submissively.
