Nytaer Awakening
Nym’s furious energy hit Proxy head on. It swirled around the Exclu wildly, before it took on its own purplish hue and coalesced into the form of a strange, batlike being...
Unlike Ryubliss, this creature’s aura gave off an almost malicious aura. It let out a squeaky yelp as its plush body was lowered to the floor. Proxy stared at the creature, utterly confused.
“What is this...?” She was perturbed by the being’s features. It almost resembled a Ryubliss... though in a twisted mockery of what the dreamfolk represented. Proxy scowled and spat, “You created a... a little demon... to haunt me, is that it?”
Nym’s maw split into a malicious sneer. She found herself slipping into her old accent. “Not’s juste this one, dear...” A blinding energy filled the room, packed with pure fear and resent... the opposite of what a guardian should be harboring. “I am’st going to curse you with a new beast... I’m going to give’st you all the suffering you’ve caused my domains.”
The little demon barked shrilly, and Nym raised a paw to point at it, her gaze deadly. “And yours will suffer, too. Yours fears will take form and suffer like me.”
Proxy stared up at her, shaking. She smiled nervously. “Have mercy...” She subconsciously found herself pushing the tiny being closer to her, almost protectively... “We’re family-”
Abruptly, Nym reared up and let out a thunderous shriek.
“Begone! Begone from these islands! Take your wretched demon-ilk withe thee!”
Proxy let out a mournful bellow as she and her curse were swept away, into the night... possibly never to be seen again.
Nym watched as her curse swirled about into the night sky, contemplating what she’d dared to give form to. For the first time, beasts of fear would run amok, now on par with their benevolent counterparts...
Whether good or bad, one thing was for certain... it was the Coming of a New Age in Arizel...
