''The truly faithful need not fear the spider's embrace.'' - Elise [Disclaimer: I do not take credit for any art posted on this blog.]

[vengence-of-nature-deactivated2]

"Pitty. Such a thing sounds as if it would at least be a source of amusement, even for a bit. Sadly," she sighed, "fortune has not favored me either, as of late. I have been searching for a stray wanderer, however, if you wish to join me. Perhaps we could even make a  game out of it, toy with someone a bit."

[spiderqueen-elise]

Elise tried to not look disappointed by that fact but nodded over to Zyra. "It would have been most wonderful. To see such mess being left behind while I watch from my webs," she murmured. Things happened however and she just shrugged the subject away. She felt for the woman but grinned slightly to hear that they both could make a game out of it. If she had to admit that she actually liked a champion from the institute it would be Zyra. She understood the how the Spider Queen thought. "We could make quite the duo. Playing with the poor victim or victims as we laugh at their despair. I quite like that idea. Your thorns and my poison can go hand in hand."

[wearallthebelts]

"Hehehe, I guess that is true," She said grinning, "I did make quite a mess of the place, Fathands and Hat Lady weren’t too happy with me about that one."

Upon Elise taking her hand, Jinx shook it firmly, smiling at the spider queen.

"Well they told me I could pretty much blow up anything with no repercussions while I’m on the field!" She exclaimed in response to Elise’s question, "And honestly that alone was enough to sway me, not to mention free rooms and food!"

[spiderqueen-elise]

"Fathands and Hat Lady?" Her brows furrowed forward at the silly nicknames given to the detective and her partner. It wasn't something she would have thought of and she was sure even little Annie was clueless to how strange it was that a woman came up with it before her. "Quite the names for both of them. I'm positive no one had even gotten close to thinking of that," she assured.

The spider laughed under her breath at how things could easily win people over. She was persuaded with showing off her power and getting the praise from summoners that saw her true strength. Plus it was good that she could easily be surrounded to the humans she used to sacrifice to the Spider God. "Seems like quite the offer." Elise gestured for Jinx to follow her as she strolled down the hall. Jinx certainly was a weird one and the spider took an interest to it. "Everyone gets told something different and some are disappointed with what they actually get. I don't think you will have a problem with what they told you."

[icebornqueen-deactivated2015082]

The only times she felt this sickening chill spread through her body was when a certain champion was near by. Her eyes glanced to her left to catch the sheer blue color of the Ice Witch. Elise stood up straight not wanting to look like a lesser being to someone who also liked to consider herself as a Queen. She managed to let a formal smile appear on her face as she veered around to full face Lissandra. "I didn't think you'd want to mingle with the people among here," she stated.

Lissandra matched the smile with her own polite and queenly smile; more subtly, she shifted the ice beneath her as she straightened her back, making her just the slightest bit taller than Elise. “Is that so?” she asked, her tone neutral as could be. “I find it useful to intimately learn the capabilities of these champions, droll as they can be. Did you come for the same reason…what was your name, now…Elise?”

[icebornqueen-deactivated2015082]

Lissandra’s eyebrows quirked at that, though it was impossible to see under her massive headpiece. “Rightfully your title, hmm? …Spider Queen it is.” What a droll domain to claim queenship of, she thought. Then again, Elise’s power was remarkable, so perhaps there was some wisdom in her choice.

"Do you, now?" Lissandra asked, interest genuinely piqued. "…Perhaps you and I could sit down and have a small chat, Spider Queen. I could make tea…I do hope you prefer it iced." She laughed lightly at her own joke, her lips in a cold smile.

[spiderqueen-elise]

Elise took pride in the title she had been granted by the Spider God. Soon, hopefully, she could even be called the Spider Goddess if he became completely pleased with her loyalty to him. It was the power that came with the position that drove her to be the creature she was. Though she was surprised to see Lissandra had taken it all too simply rather than put up a fight like others. Interesting, she thought. "It would only be right of me to call you by a title you prefer as well or do you prefer the title 'Ice Witch'?" 

The spider let a tiny chuckle escape her lips as she liked that the immortal could joke about her own power. "I'm not much of a tea fan but I think I can agree if the conversation isn't dull," she replied. Words spread easily among the corridors of the institute which was unfortunate for those who were the main topic. She preferred to know things beforehand so it came handy to hide in the shadows and listen carefully to what was being shared. 

Her head tilted slightly so she could see if anyone was standing behind Lissandra. When the coast was clear she turned attention back on the immortal and gave a small nod. "You know what I hate more than annoying humans? The ones that are completely unaware that they have pissed me off by being half an hour late," she answered her own question before the fellow champion could open her mouth. Her jaw clenched tight as she decided that she would deal with this properly when she could. "Seems my tasks have been set back. If you would like to have that chat then it would be quite an experience but if not then I will go to my room to rearrange my plans."

[vengence-of-nature-deactivated2]

Zyra looked up from one of the many potted plants within the halls of the institute to greet the arachnid queen in turn. “Ah, Elise, greetings, how nice to see you. Caught anything interesting in your web lately?” The plant always admired how Elise worked- after all, both were masters of a bait-and-catch style. Plus, Zyra was no stranger to the beauty and grace of a careful executioner. She couldn’t help but be intrigued by the spider-lady.

[spiderqueen-elise]

She nodded her head to agree with the statement of how nice it was to see her as well. They seemed to work in similar ways and understand things that others may not be able to comprehend. The question brought a small grin on to her face as she took a better look at one of the potted plants near by. "Just a few more terrified humans and I once caught a secret that would have caused chaos on its own but it seems to have disappeared." Elise shrugged lightly then and took in the sweet aroma of nature before turning to Zyra. "How have you been? Has anything been gored by your thorns?" she asked curiously.

[icebornqueen-deactivated2015082]

The only times she felt this sickening chill spread through her body was when a certain champion was near by. Her eyes glanced to her left to catch the sheer blue color of the Ice Witch. Elise stood up straight not wanting to look like a lesser being to someone who also liked to consider herself as a Queen. She managed to let a formal smile appear on her face as she veered around to full face Lissandra. "I didn't think you'd want to mingle with the people among here," she stated.

Lissandra matched the smile with her own polite and queenly smile; more subtly, she shifted the ice beneath her as she straightened her back, making her just the slightest bit taller than Elise. “Is that so?” she asked, her tone neutral as could be. “I find it useful to intimately learn the capabilities of these champions, droll as they can be. Did you come for the same reason…what was your name, now…Elise?”

[spiderqueen-elise]

Elise didn't take the height difference as intimidation since she was sure she could cause as much harm as anyone in the institute. Instead she found it amusing and only let a slight of that fact display on her face. "Ah, yes. I see your reasoning to be here then," she murmured. Her eyes caught the Ice Witch's eyes and merely widened her smile not at all affected by the forgetful moment of her name. She knew how some of the champions worked especially the ones that loved to consider themselves royals. They liked to appear superior to others just like she. "Or you can just call me by what is rightfully my title, the Spider Queen, Ice Witch." The spider spoke calmly and gave a simple nod as she took a few steps closer to Lissandra. "Though I am here mostly to do a few tasks. I learn about others through the talk of those who don't know how to keep their mouths closed."

[wearallthebelts]

"Yup, that’s me!  My reputation seems like it’s gotten ahead of me, everybody’s already heard of me apparently!"

She gave an exaggerated bow to the now designated Elise before coming back up with a broad smile and sticking her hand out in greeting.

"Nice ta meet ya Elise!"

[spiderqueen-elise]

"Hard to not be heard of when you wreck complete havoc to a city. Especially one that is supposed to be well protected by Caitlyn and Vi," she declared. Elise loved chaos but she didn't like it to be as messy as Jinx caused it to be. The spider was pleased by the bow the blue haired woman gave her and decided to give in to the human greeting. "So, what did the summoners say to get you to join the institute?" Her hand then reached out to grasp Jinx's extended one.

[wearallthebelts]

"Thanks!" The criminal said enthusiastically, "I’m quite proud of it and it’s my favorite!"

"So what’s your name then, miss Spider Queen?"

[spiderqueen-elise]

"I'm sure you are," she said, trying her best to not sound judgmental. A prideful grin marked her face as she raised her arms while straightening herself out. She wanted to look like the royal that she felt. "I'm Elise. The name of a true queen so be sure to remember that." The spider then went back to a more relaxed position as she looked over the blue haired woman. "You must be Jinx. The criminal that is wrecking havoc in Piltover. Your reputation has flowed throughout these halls."

[kirrys]

[spiderqueen-elise]

"Teemo, you look good enough to eat."

[wearallthebelts]

Woah, I like your outfit, spider lady!

[spiderqueen-elise]

"Of course, you do. It’s fit for a Queen," she said, grinning. Her eyes gazed over the lean woman with blue hair and bright, crazy seeming eyes. "Your outfit is definitely something else."

[wearallthebelts]

Wait, are you a queen?  Cus that’d be cool!  I’ve never met a queen before!

And yea, it is!  I made it myself, what do you think?!

*She makes a triumphant pose, showing off her odd and very skimpy outfit.*

[spiderqueen-elise]

Elise scoffed lightly as she raised her head up high. "The one and only Spider Queen. Though other queens," she snarled the word, "such as Ashe would probably find that they are better than me." She gazed over Jinx's style and held back the smug grin that wanted to escape on to her face. "It suits you quite well."

[wearallthebelts]

Woah, I like your outfit, spider lady!

[spiderqueen-elise]

"Of course, you do. It's fit for a Queen," she said, grinning. Her eyes gazed over the lean woman with blue hair and bright, crazy seeming eyes. "Your outfit is definitely something else."

[the-fallen-angel-morgana-deacti]

Morgana listened as Elise cleared up what exactly her followers were looking for. “Power? My, our forces seem to be searching for the same things, just for different purposes. While we seek revenge, your disciples wish to please your god,” she said. “It is indeed strange, as you say, how they are not willing to fight, but want power. Perhaps it is that power that will give them strength, security, and peace of mind. Hmph…” 

She looked on as Elise displayed her poison’s extent. “So your god’s poison is something far better than that?,” Morgana asked, intrigued. “Do tell me what you can, if your spider god allows you to? Your poison may have easily burned through that tree, but have you tried it on immortal skin like mine?” The Fallen Angel wasn’t suggesting that Elise give it a try on her at the moment. Heavens, no. “But, I’ll gladly take a sample and I’ll report back to you my findings. I’m sure your god will be pleased.” 

The Fallen Angel grew a little uneasy and suspicious at the mention of any changes to her body. A woman’s body was her business and her business alone. She was thinking twice now before letting foreign bodies enter it. What if Elise was going to double cross her in the end and make her like one of her spider god’s followers? No, she didn’t want to think about that possibility, but it still had to be considered. 

"If it’s sacrifices you want, many of Noxus’ poor and sickly are perfect for your god. Does he like his sacrifices full of pain and spite? I’ve got plenty, and those mortals are a dime a dozen," Morgana scoffed at the idea of just rounding up measly mortals for poison. Well, if it was as good as Elise said it is, then she figured that it might be worth it. "As for changing my appearance, I must know the full terms and conditions of this… change. Forgive me for being so skeptical, but I really must blame some past acquaintances I’ve had for my suspicion. They, too, offered me power in exchange for a change to my appearance." 

Gulping a little, Morgana didn’t dare say what became of her after that ordeal. A monster now resided within her body and there was no way that she knew to get rid of her. Returning Elise’s bow with a short, curt one of her own, she replied, “I do not expect you to get involved with this war. Your spider god would not want to waste any energy on a conflict that is worlds away. I do appreciate your offer, though, Spider Queen.”

[spiderqueen-elise]

The spider let out a giddy laugh as she shrugged as she did not understand the mental reasoning of her followers. They were all quite beneath her when she thought of them and she disliked having to communicate with them. She wished she could just deliver them dead to the spider god but he preferred them alive. "Well they seek to be gifted with the powers I have been given. The spider god isn't something they completely know of. If anything I blame them for being selfish," she stated nonchalantly. Elise wanted to scoff at that explanation but she couldn't bring herself to do it. She had been just like them once until her god was kind enough to make her into something better.

She tilted her head slightly at the questions brought up from Morgana and nodded taking them into consideration. Her poison was strong and she had just shown an example to it so she didn't mind the curiosity from the fallen angel. "I haven't tried it on immortal skin. When I poisoned your sister, I injected it into her blood stream with my strong fangs. After that I didn't get a good look at her neck to see if it had left any damage." Elise tried to remember if maybe she had caught sight of it but eventually just gave up trying. Her eyes closed as she wondered if the spider god would be unpleased of her handing out too much information to someone like Morgana. Then decided it wouldn't be that bad as there was no reason to go behind someone who didn't want any part with the angel war. Reopening her eyes she looked over at Morgana once more. "My poison can easily burn through human skin. I can switch between poison as well. Paralyzing them or making them feel ill by the second which sometimes involves becoming delusional. The spider god can do a lot more," she explained casually.

Elise shook her head at Morgana and then latched her hands behind her back as she paced a bit. "He likes the sacrifices to be full of life. Young or old but they can't be weak due to illness. They can be broken souls but if they are in healthy condition then it's perfect." She stopped and brought her fingers to her temple as she rubbed it gently. Her mind racing to still figure out what could be better than mortals to her god. "I have tried bringing him animals around the shadow isles before but it did nothing. I thought of giving him some of the summoners I quite literally detest but that would only start an unnecessary war that we don't need," she sighed.

Her eyes then snapped over at the fallen angel as she questioned her change in appearance. Elise expected that to be a question but she had not realized it was because of other deals. She nodded and got into a more relaxed position as she gestured to the woman before her. "Do not worry. I only meant that you may look very menacing to the followers as the way you are. They need to be willing to make the trip." The spider then demonstrated by making her extra limbs disappear so she looked more like a normal human woman. "I can help you with that or the spider god can. Nothing bad." She wasn't trying to make crazy plan to then back stab the angel. All she wanted was a boost while making a trade for it.

"He would have me stripped of my power and forced to survive in the shadow isles by myself if I was to involve him," she said in all seriousness. She allowed her extra limbs appear and then gazed over them in happiness. "My price for immortality is great but I do like the power that comes with it." Her hand then reached out as her eyes stared deep into Morgana's. A smile tugging at the corner of her lips as she hoped the answer would be the one she wanted to hear. "So is this a deal?"

[the-fallen-angel-morgana-deacti]

Tormented Soul (Open)

[the-fallen-angel-morgana-deacti]

So Elise did understand her ordeal. Morgana was impressed, for someone called the Spider Queen, she was one of the farthest beings from acting obnoxious and all high and mighty. True, she did mention the god that she serves, but the Spider Queen seemed to grasp the notion of mortals’ willingness to fight. Also, she was wise not to take sides. Morgana preferred that instead of the few fools that dared to ally themselves with her. They only meant that she had someone else to protect, someone to lose. 

"I’ll be sure to give you a fight that’s pretty interesting to spectate. Your followers could even get a good kick out of it," Morgana chuckled. "Although,  I do have to appreciate your offer on the poison. Get on the good side of the spider god? Why, aren’t you his most devout follower? His Spider Queen?" She looked a bit puzzled at the thought, then pushed it aside, "If you are offering, I’d like to hear what the terms are, then. I’ve read a little bit on poisons across Runeterra and haven’t found at least one account on the spider god’s. I assume it’s perhaps one of the most dangerous." 

She crossed her arms, not breaking eye contact with Elise. “I also have to commend you on your understanding of things like war,” the Fallen Angel let a smirk come upon her lips. “Too many tell me that peace is the answer. Like you said, we all have a bit of fight in us. In we fallen angels’ case, we’ve got a lot of it.”

[spiderqueen-elise]

She carved a simple design on to the branch with her nails as she spoke to Morgana. It was easy to lose track of life when the conversation was at least entertaining. Elise thought she was the best but that didn't mean she couldn't hold some respect to certain champions like Morgana or Kayle. Maybe she did still hold on to some of her sweet ways from when she was nothing but a mortal. That thought made her winkle her nose as the following images of her being used and to weak to do anything towards others. Now she was a changed woman and she preferred it this way. The words that slipped from the fallen angel's lips made the spider laugh lightly while shaking her head. "You may get my attention but my followers are all too interested in power. Some are too afraid to even fight but claim they want to be strong. It's strange," she says in disbelief of her followers.

Elise grinned a bit as she nodded as to agree that she was the spider god's most devoted follower. He possibly had a few more under his eight legs but she was the queen after all. She just thought there was nothing wrong with getting to a higher position. Goddess could suit her well. "I am but why not climb higher when given the chance?" The look on Morgana's face was granted but she just continued to smile. The spider accumulated some saliva in her mouth and once she was sure it was enough, she spat at the trunk of the tree beside her. Sizzling sounds could be heard and in seconds the wood had disappeared, leaving a hole behind. "My poison can't even reach what his can do," she said, trying to make a point.

The woman then slipped down from her seated position on the branch and stood firmly before the dark haired woman. If they were about to make a deal then it should be done professionally. "My terms are simple. Mortals sustain the spider god quite well but I have been trying to figure out if there is something better." Elise then brought her eyes to stare directly into Morgana's. "You seem very knowledgeable and thought maybe you knew a solution. If not then I just need a hand in bringing in more of my followers. That would mean changing your appearance a bit to look more approachable but I can only take so many at a time," she finished, hoping the angel understood.

The Spider Queen replied with a smirk of her own as she did a mock bow. "I have yet to be part of a war since I don't like meddling in things that aren't part of my ideal or such but it's just something that happens. It's part of life." 

[the-fallen-angel-morgana-deacti]

Tormented Soul (Open)

[the-fallen-angel-morgana-deacti]

The Fallen Angel nodded, and kept a keen eye on Elise as she lifted herself up. “I agree, just talking about the tyrant is leaving a bad taste in my mouth,” she spat out with disgust. Morgana was glad to know that the Spider Queen was able to at least agree with her on this much about Kayle. The Judicator would have to think twice before ever thinking about approaching  Elise again. Elise was not necessarily a friend, but she was certainly someone that suffered at the Judicator’s hand for almost no reason at all. That is, unless Kayle had absolutely lost any sense of self-control and just lashed out at a fellow dark creature like Morgana. In that case, the Fallen Angel was sure that she was going to return the favor. 

"Ah, yes, the big question that people are always asking me," Morgana smirked at Elise’s remark. "What shall I do once I’ve slain her, you ask?" The Fallen Angel’s sinister tone quickly melted away into one that sounded far less harsh and more solemn. "The one thing that I’ve learned in this world that I’m sure of, is that peace is the greatest lie of all." She smiled a bit as she quoted her ex Darkin lover. "Angels love to fight almost as much as humans do, and that is something that I can’t change. What I can change, however, is the balance of power in the heavens." 

Morgana spoke with a renewed fervor and confidence. “With Kayle out of the way, the righteous society of angels will crumble, and that is where my Fallen brethren and I shall take our place. For millennia, we have suffered for the betrayal of our own “divine” brethren. Their cries for peace shall be heard no more. We had enough of their lies and foolishness. They are the ones that are beyond redemption, not us,” the Fallen Angel continued, a faint glow in her eyes as she spoke. “You’ll hear the Judicator’s side of the story soon enough. They offered peace. We simply bit back the hand that betrayed us in the first place.” 

Her voice filled with strong determination, Morgana didn’t care that Elise probably thought that this feud was stupid. It was the very purpose of her existence. “Many Fallen have suffered and died since the gods forsake us, it was only fair for us to reply with a massive genocide of their own spoiled kind that were allowed to eat, drink, and sleep soundly at night. Now, no one is safe while Kayle’s brand of tyranny exists. I am not looking for peace, but change. The Fallen shall have the lives of security and prosperity that they were long denied, and I want to be the one to give it to them.” 

She let a moment of silence pass for Elise to take all her words in, if she even cared to. “As for the poison, I’ve been tempted with such propositions before, Spider Queen,” Morgana said. “I mean no offense, but how do I know you’re not just leading me to tangle myself in a web of lies?”

[spiderqueen-elise]

Elise was done with the woman as she couldn't even be reminded of her without growing angry. The Judicator had certainly put on quite a dramatic show in front of the guards around the institute and that was enough for the spider. To see the look on the guard's faces as they were in disbelief to how the blond was behaving was a treat in itself. The woman agreed with Morgana's statement by adding, "I was hungry but now I can't possibly think of food without wanting to gag." Never was she the one to go ahead and act in such a manner but the angel had brushed her the wrong way too many times in just one day. 

Those words were something even she could agree with as she gave a small nod, not wanting to interrupt the woman as she spoke. Her nails tapping ever so gently at the branch beneath her as she imagined a peaceful world. It was impossible as there was always going to be hatred and negativity. No one was perfect and certainly no one was completely nice. A world without war or killing was just a dream that would never come true. Especially since giving sacrifices was the reason she was still alive till this point. The blessing of the spider god making her immortal but only if she brought him victims so he could feed from. Elise would never stop doing that, she wanted to live and be this strong creature she had become due to him. Her eyes gazed over the fallen angel for a second with a soft smile on her face. "Who doesn't love a fight or two. Nothing is better than to feel the bones of someone you dislike crack and to see them cry out in pain." To most she probably looked delusional as she smiled happily at the pain others felt but maybe Morgana could understand her. "We all have a fight in us. Some just have to prod a little harder to see it come out," she stated simply.

She couldn't possibly imagine the war between the fallen angels and the ones that sat comfortably in their peaceful homes. It wasn't one she'd like to be part of and thankfully she was here doing her own thing. She could hear the sheer confidence in the woman's voice and it was hard to picture her not getting her way. "I see. Well now it's all a game of wait and see then. I will just sit in my web and watch as the story unfolds," she said, glancing up to the skies. The battle would continue happening until who knows when and until it was over those blue skies would always be filled with the most interesting of fights.

The spider grinned almost like a cheshire cat as she turned to look back at Morgana. Poison was her specialty and it was what the spider god mastered in after all. A web of lies and deceit was easy to make but why go through the trouble when the angel could not be killed by hands that were not of her own kind. "Because I want to get on the good side of the spider that gave me this power. If you help me out then he will be willing to help you which will greatly help me. I rub your back and you rub mines, isn't that how it works?" she asked, smirking lightly.

Morgana cringed, “She’s more or less the same as she was before I was branded Fallen. On the contrary, she’s the one that would call me a stubborn mule, but I suppose some things just never change.” The Fallen Angel cracked a sinister smirk. “I would also highly recommend against running into her again. At least someone else can understand how the “righteous” Judicator is surprisingly bad company.” She was intrigued that Elise understood this at the very least about the Judicator. Morgana figured that perhaps she should start showing the Spider Queen just an ounce of respect.

"Well, unlike her, I do have a sense of humor, although it is a dark one at best. But, yes, she really can’t take a joke. Takes things far too seriously, to the point that I think she will eventually lose her mind over such things. It’ll be a great opportunity to overwhelm her stupid armies that will blindly follow her into the fray," the Fallen Angel took a more strategic approach to the matter, thinking in terms of how this would help her in battle. "Her body and armor may be strong and protect her, but it is really her will and soul that are weak.  I will make sure that I’ll utterly crush both." 

She figured that Elise wouldn’t mind the dark tone in her voice. The Spider Queen herself was a dark entity of Runeterra, she could understand that, right? “Ah, yes, your poison,” Morgana remarked. “Oh, all that armor, yet she’ll crumble to the ground with just a drop of the strongest poison. I have yet to apply any of those wonderful qualities to my own magic, but I suppose that was one of the best things that you could’ve done in that situation. Who knows, maybe the poison helped knock some sense into her?,” she chuckled at the thought of her running around with the poison clouding her judgement and numbing her body.

[spiderqueen-elise]

Elise wrinkled her nose, unsure of how the fallen angel put up with the woman that was her sister. If she had been her sibling, she would have probably fed her to the spider god by now. "I don't know how you put up with her though I'm sure there are things about you that may drive her insane," she commented. The wind around them picked up for a second, making her shudder lightly out of nowhere. She wasn't necessarily built for the cold so she couldn't stop herself from cursing under her breath for the breeze to come to an end. Then she shook her head as she looked back up at Morgana as if she had lost her damn mind. "Never. I never want to bump into her again." The Judicator could go through any bad situation and she would just laugh at her pain. That angel had crossed a line that the spider could not just easily forget. She then waved her hand as to dismiss the whole topic. "Just talking about her is ruining the moment. Let us just push it aside," she suggested.

The woman liked the way that the fallen angel thought and nodded lightly as if condoning her acts. She lifted both her arms and grasped the nearest branch to the ground before pulling up so she could rest herself upon it. Elise much preferred to be off the ground and when she had the chance, she took it. Her left leg rested on her right one as she placed each hand beside her to keep a good grip on the branch. There was no need to fall in front of a fellow champion and look like an idiot. "Tell me, Morgana. What do you have planned after your sister has been slayed? This seems like the event everyone is waiting for even you." Her eyes stared down at the angel but not in a superior way, it was more out of pure curiosity. "But will you let it just go dull afterwards?"

The spider smirked as she had quite the poison to take anyone out if she wanted to. Kayle was just stronger and she hadn't expected her to be able to handle the amount she had placed in her. Then an idea popped into her mind making her lean forward from her position. "What if I told you I could give you poison that was stronger than mines? Would you take the opportunity to get your hands on it?" she asked with a small hiss at the back of her throat. This could very well work out perfectly for her and why not help her out a little bit at least. Just a push.

[the-fallen-angel-morgana-deacti]

Tormented Soul (Open)

[the-fallen-angel-morgana-deacti]

Morgana didn’t quite like the slight attitude that Elise was giving her about the matter, but she let it slide. As far as she knew, Elise had no reason to even put Morgana in danger, except for her own amusement. Then, she remembered the remark about Kayle. “Oh, really now?,” the Fallen Angel smirked. “I clearly haven’t been giving her enough headaches, Elise. I’ll be sure to return the favor, for your sake.”

She paused, taken aback by Elise’s question. “Well, the real question I should be asking you is why you confronted the Judicator anyway. Not exactly the most sociable of beings in this world, yet all are drawn to her,” Morgana scoffed in disgust, crossing her arms. Sighing, she then quickly apologized for her suspicions, “Do pardon my strange questions. This week has been an uneventful, but difficult one to bear.” 

The Fallen Angel chuckled, “I can only imagine having to bear through this week after fighting that tyrant, of all people. She still packs quite a punch.  Of course, it’d be quite difficult to ensnare such a well-armored, armed, and flying target. I’m sure if you lured the fight back to your web, you would’ve stood a much better chance. Even with her holy fire and sword, your spiderlings are a force not to be reckoned with, when in large numbers of course.”

[spiderqueen-elise]

It wasn't like Elise wanted to see Morgana crushed or hurt in any matter. The spider didn't hate the fallen angel but rather disliked everyone in some way. She didn't have a real purpose to have the champion before her to be in any danger except for the fact that she wanted some entertainment. The institute could grow boring and a bit of fun was just too hard to resist. Elise rolled her eyes as she tried to forget the dreadful moment with the blonde angel. "She is just as stubborn as a mule. I don't know how she was before you fell but I rather never bump into her again. The Fields is pushing it already," she fumed. The angel had certainly gotten on her nerve and it was starting to show. She sighed and stood upright as if to push away the events while trying to calm herself. There was no need to put her anger on to another especially if they couldn't care less about it. Her hand brushed back her hair before crossing her arms in front of her chest. "Your sister is difficult is all I will say."

Elise scoffed along with Morgana's words as she had dealt with the woman to know that was true. It had been far from enjoyable and she wished she could take it back. "I found her in the training grounds. Decided to tease her a bit but she was out of her mind. One moment she is acting like she is drunk and the next she is throwing insults at me while wanting a fight. She can't take a joke, can she?" The woman was stating this as calmly as she could, not wanting to blow up once more. Her hands balling into fists slightly but releasing after awhile. Morgana seemed more tolerable at the moment than her sister was. The Spider Queen nodded at the fallen angel as if she understood. Her nails tapping gently at the skin of her arm as she leaned her shoulder against a tree bark. "No need to apologize, Morgana. We all have our problems."

The woman sighed a bit remembering the searing pain she felt and nodded. "Yes, it wasn't easy. I had to endure quite some strength. I will admit she is quite strong but I was able to get my poison in to her." A smirk grew on her lips as she remembered that perfectly while letting out a small laugh. "My fangs can break through quite a lot so skin is nothing. Though you are very correct. On my area of expertise she would have quite some trouble against me. Oh well," she shrugged. This was strange as she hadn't exchanged much with the fallen angel but it was at least interesting.

The Fallen Angel held her head and shook it, protesting, “I haven’t been summoned a lot until recently, but I really do doubt that that’s the reason why.” Morgana rubbed her temples, hoping for the throbbing pain to go away. “You didn’t see anyone attack me or anything?,” Morgana threw a suspicious glare at Elise. “Not that I’d like to doubt a fellow champion, but what brings you here to somewhere so far away from the Institute and the Isles? It’s rare to see you out here, that is, unless you’re foolish enough to think that I’m some worthy prey.” 

Morgana took a stride forward to face the Spider Queen. “Besides, I didn’t even get to see any of your spiderlings wandering around,” she crossed her arms, a calm, unamused expression on her face. “We were never close or close to being enemies, but  I must ask that you be honest about what you saw just now.” The Fallen Angel cleared her throat before seriously asking, “Was I… acting like myself?”

Elise shrugged slightly as if she couldn't even have the tiniest of clues of what was wrong with the fallen angel then. It wasn't like she had seen the woman all of a sudden turn into someone else for the moment. Nope, not at all. Then her eyes veered to the angel's face and she let the most earnest concern she could pull off appear on her own face. "No, it was just us. At least it was only you until I got here," she replied with ease. She didn't think lying about the Blade Mistress was too bad as she didn't know how bad it could be at all. For now her curiosity of what the metal woman might do was winning. The Spider Queen chuckled lightly as she waved her hand to dismiss the foolishness in that sentence. "I know you aren't a prey. It would be fun to see your strength but fighting with your sister has given me plenty of headaches to last through the rest of the year," she said, sighing.

She arched her brow slightly as if confused by the sudden question. To her the Blade Mistress and Morgana were both quite evil in their own way and had almost the same personality. In her mind she wouldn't really be lying if she said yes so she nodded. "Why all these questions? You were struggling from this pain and that was it," she stated matter of factly.
