Requiem for the past [solo] Empty Sun Aug 30, 2020 7:15 am

Ryuko

Tap... tap... tap... Slowly her steps walked along the docks that would lead her on a path toward the lighthouse. She had no particular reason for visiting the lighthouse, after all, it wasn't like she was meeting someone there. No, instead she wanted to take a moment to enjoy some peace and quiet away from society. She knew that this early in the morning there wouldn't be any people, well aside from the elder who took care of the lighthouse itself which was ideal for her.

She quietly ascended the path toward the lighthouse, allowing her mind to do what she had done so many times in the past few years: reminiscent about the days that were gone forever.

It was odd how powerful dreams and memories could be, to the point it was as if she was lucid dreaming. She could feel the hand of her lover guiding her along, Fia's hands had always been a bit rougher and stronger than her own, but her grasp was always so delicate and gentle when it involved her.

"Come on Princess~ We got to sneak up there before they notice us~" That voice, that was always filled with such a playfulness despite her rougher looks was something Esperia found so endearing, so charming in its own way. Even as they arrived at the lighthouse, the sight of nobody being there caused a soft grin to emerge upon her lips. "Heh~ guess we can sneak up to the top~" It was something they had done so often back in Baska, sneaking to the top of the church and enjoying the beautiful view from up there. Even as she climbed she could feel her heart overflowing with joy, and soon they finally arrived at the top of the lighthouse, the sight of the sea in front of her, and the port of Hargeon behind her.

"It's so beautiful..." Esperia whispered softly, while Fia remarked with a teasing smirk. "Not as beautiful as you princess~"

There was a momentary pause, just the thought of enjoying the sight alongside Fia was more than enough to fill her with such joy, such delight. But it was also at that time that Esperia's mind forced her to recall that those beautiful memories were but a dream, a dream of the past. It was that realization, that it was a past she could never reclaim that made Esperia's eyes start to tear up, soft sobs coming from her. "Why... why did you leave me behind?" It was a question the dream had no answer for, not even the Demon Lord of Lust could answer that question for her.

"It's unfair... First Lia left me for Ali..." The memory still stung, of how her childhood crush had chosen Alisa over her, a choice that had a lingering effect for years, one that she was only able to deal with thanks to Fia's love. Fia's emergence into her life was like a blessing, being able to finally say that there was someone who loved her, a love that was exclusively meant for her was such an amazing feeling! She truly thought that she would be able to spend her future forever at Fia's side, a wonderful utopia as long as they had each other to rely on. "Then... you disappeared..." Another sob escaped from her as she looked up at the distant sea, her hands gripping the railing of the lighthouse. "I tried my best to find you, but you never returned... And by the time I came back even Ali had found someone to love, someone to marry."

She shook her head lightly in denial. "It's unfair! Why does everyone else get to experience the things I want?! The things I desire?! What did I ever do to deserve this?!"

But once more no answer came. It was unfair, this whole world was unfair to her. The fact there was no answer or explanation to be given for it only infuriated her. "Asmodeus! You can hear me!" The cry of the young woman made the demon lord manifest at her side, tapping a hand against her cheek as she hummed softly. "Mai~ Mai~ It's hard not to hear you when you're shouting so loud~ What is it that you want my dear?"

The words spoken by the Demon Lord made Esperia turn toward her, her eyes narrowed into a glare. "I have enough of this... This chasing of dreams, of desires... What good is it if it keeps slipping out of my hands?!"

Esperia's outraged cry made Asmodeus ponder for a moment, humming softly. "Dreams are ambitions we keep chasing my dear, that is why they are dreams."

Of course Esperia was quite displeased by this statement by the Demon Lord of Lust, shaking her head violently. "Screw that! You been longing for it so long? You can have it! I want to make a deal with you."

The words caused an eyebrow to be raised by the Demon Lord who mused softly. "Negotating with a demon hmm? And what is it that you want to offer me?" Asmodeus inquired, taking a step closer to Esperia as she stood right in front of her vessel. "You been wanting my desires, my dreams, my lust? Well, you can have it! You can have them all!"

A sparkle of interest emerged in the Demon Lord's eyes as she focused her gaze onto Esperia's eyes: sorrow, anger, longing. So many emotions were flowing through her right now. "Of course a negotiation would require a suitable compromise, what would you want from me in return?"

For a moment Esperia remained quiet, her gaze cast down as she muttered softly. "everything..." The word caused Asmodeus to blink in bewilderment "That's a bit vague my dear~"

Yet Esperia wouldn't be turned away from the path she had chosen, looking up at Asmodeus. "If I give you everything, I want everything in return! Dreams! Desires! Ambitions! Lust! I want them all!"

The words made Asmodeus start to laugh heartily, to the point tears started to gather in her eyes. "You want to experience all the desire in this world? To become submerged in dreams and lust? To experience it all? Mai~ I never imagined I would meet a girl that could be 'that' greedy."

Esperia knew it was greedy, to expect she could experience that all, to take such a thing for her own. But at this point she didn't care. If the world was unfair to her, then she would be unfair to it in return!

"Can you do it?" The words made Asmodeus smirk at her. "Darling~ I am the Demon Lord of Lust, desires and lust are my playthings~ It is quite simple for me to grant you such things."

However, before Esperia could answer the Demon Lord she raised a finger to Esperia's lips to silence her. "But~"

For a moment Asmodeus's interruption made Esperia go silent, looking at the demon as she waited to hear more. "People might not be agreeable to your decision, I guess one could say they might find it greedy. Some might even go as far as labeling you a witch for using those powers to gain what you desire."

Was it alright for her to do that? To obtain the things she wanted without regarding what other people thought or felt about the matter? Then again, when did people ever stop to consider how she felt?

A firm nod was made by Esperia in return to those words, her thoughts on the matter clear "I don't care if they will think of it as being greedy, they can even call me a witch for all I care. As long as I get what I desire."

Esperia's words earned a smile from Asmodeus, the finger on her lips slowly pulling back to tap her forehead lightly. "Don't say I didn't warn you my dear~ Although you will be changing, since you'll be drawing closer to my existence, you will start to look like I did before I became Asmodeus. Are you still fine with that?"

Esperia shrugged her shoulders lightly. "Looking like a demon of lust doesn't seem like a bad trade to me." The words made Asmodeus snicker softly as she replied at the smug remark. "Glad to hear you can still make those remarks~"

For a moment Esperia felt a powerful surge of mana coursing through her being, but right at the same time it began her vision grown blurry and she staggered backwards against the lighthouse' beacon, sliding softly onto the ground as she watched Asmodeus smiling down at her. "Sweet dreams my adorable greedy witch."

She wasn't sure how long had passed since then, although it was only when she felt a light shaking of her body that she started to slowly regain her consciousness. "Miss? wake up miss! Are you alright?!"

A worried voice beckoned her mind back to reality as she slowly opened her eyes, a shake of her head attempting to dispell the drowsiness she had suddenly felt. "Where---am I?"

Esperia muttered softly, looking up at the elder who was worriedly gazing at her. "Hargeon-" Esperia nodded her head weakly in return. "Ah right, the lighthouse... Ugg, she couldn't have warned me about this first?"

raising a hand to her forehead Esperia noticed something peculiar: her hair had changed color, but it was not just her hair: Her entire body seemed slightly different, and even her mana felt somewhat... wilder, unrestrained as it flowed through her being.

It took her a bit of time before she was finally able to convince the elder that she was alright, and after thanking him for his care she descended along the tower, although as she glimpsed into the water she could see her reflection was... different from what she remembered.

"So this is how you used to look before you became Asmodeus?"

The question made Asmodeus manifest at her side, lips curved up into a smile as she nodded her head lightly in return. "Yep~ Fortunately for you not a soul on Earthland will recognize this look aside from my old mentor."

That sounded interesting, Asmodeus had a mentor? Perhaps something she would ask the Demon Lord about at a later time. "So what do you want to do now Esperia? Going to dream about the past again?"

Esperia shook her head lightly as she approached the port. "I got enough of living in the past, we did have a bargain~ You got my desires and lust, and in exchange I wanted all of it. So that is what I'm going to do~ I'm going to experience it all: lust, desire, dreams. And then I claim them for myself~"

Esperia's playful remark at the end as she continued walking made Asmodeus smile sheepishly. "You really are starting to sound like a Witch of Greed~" Yet as Esperia approached the tavern Asmodeus' expression grew more serious, her gaze cast skywards. "I guess her time will soon come master... I hope by then I will have prepared her enough for what is to come."

Indeed, Esperia might had given up her dreams and desires of the past in exchange for the means of claiming all the desire in the world as her own, but that seemed to had been playing right into the hands of her mysterious benefactor...

What could it be that Asmodeus had in mind?
