"you look as if you've seen a ghost." @ofangelsanddemigods roswyn to raven
Raven stepped back, eyes deeply fixed on the Woman's figure. He wasn't even blinking, he was expecting the unexpected - any kind of unexpected - happening any second.
He never trusted his eyes only when something unusual happened, and his eyes would have certainly betrayed him this time... Gorgeous-looking woman, with a bride dress and the soft voice of a Siren. Probably the same deadly too since she had no heartbeat and her scent was... What? Surely not human, nor... Anything. His mind was still trying to put the puzzle pieces together when she spoke.
Having to deal with a vengeful spirit was the very last of his wishes. And unfortunately, many of those spirits weren't even aware they were dead. "Oh, I was just charmed by your beauty, my Lady..." he replied in the most predictable way. "Why are you wandering alone in such a solitary place? Won't you ruin that lovely dress?"
