The coldness of the air lingered on without any end, any reason to think it would be any nicer than this. Not as though it were possible to be much nicer, the shadows that lingered upon this place being endemic of all the rumors and stories that she had come to hear of here. Dahlia, a place of darkness and unease, certainly living up to its name, leaving little imagination, little reason to think that this were a place that she wished to be.

Far from it, if anything, she would have preferred being anywhere else. Her first time in Fiore in however long it had felt, and already she felt out of place, uneasy. The circumstances of her trip having hardly been much worth enjoying either, subjected to the uneasy tidings of the coast, the abrupt departure, the hasty exit that they had found themselves taking, their luxurious setting within Joya now turning into that of this abandoned hellscape.

“Hardly a place to lay one’s head,” she mused aloud, her company, the creature to whom she were still having fun understanding, fully comprehending following just behind. Granted a physical form than that of the aberrant true self to which it sometimes took, she could not help but appreciate the thing’s appearance now, having taken over the body of another whom so long ago had found themselves at the mercy of her, forced to abandon their soul in order to spare the lives of the family that they had put to ante. For a time she had been struggling to figure quite what to do with it, too attractive of a body to dispose of, but something for which she had found herself at a loss in how to properly handle.

How fortunate indeed, that the arrival of a girl so desired to find some sort of reprieve and salvation that she would come to offer this creature, having sought a contract for their own respective freedom, only to be denied that themselves, instead forced to serve her instead.

“Feel free to speak. You may serve me now, but I did not go so far as to provide you with that host to simply allow you to grumble,” an invitation as much as a threat. However the creature may have regarded it, they quickly understood the message being conveyed.

“Dahlia is a frightful place. The people, they aren’t much keen to wishing to be here.” It still felt odd, if not incorrect, the idea of being in servitude, having a body that were not its own. The creature, for as much as it found itself confused by everything that it was experiencing now, there was some level of delight that came with it too. Its servitude to the woman aside, there was a sense of freedom, far more than the restrictive past that had long plagued it. “Why have we come here? Surely you know of the place.”

“I do, but that does not change there can be something of value here.” She turned towards the creature, rubbing at its throat as it became accustomed to the sound of its own new voice, “I would expect that you could appreciate that fact.”

Some more time later, the streets began to further and further blend in, the mystique that may have come with traversing through a decrepit region having more than lost its appeal and luster. Now, simply just a revolving door of a gloomy sight transposed with another gloomy sight set to replace it. She was done with it, frankly wondering just what it was that motivated her to have made this trip, to agree to depart from the luxurious place of living that she had set up for herself within Joya to come here. Nothing to gain it felt like, nothing to appreciate or want to remain here for. Just a lot of run-down homes, fog, and other lackluster elements to all of it.

Even just the sounds around them, the liveliness that she had come to get used to within Joya was not here. Instead there being little more than an eeriness that lingered, a sound that she could not fully put around her, but one that she knew was here all the same. It lingered on more and more, at times her actually coming to maybe think that it were getting louder, only for it to fade away as her suspicions grew.

She heard the howl before her new servant did, an ear perking upwards, enough to draw her attention. Her new travel companion quickly caught on a moment later, her eyes darting in all directions, not quite sure where to expect any sort of assault. In their boredom and droll venture through, the alleyways that had seemed to be mirrors of one another had prevented them – certainly at least her – from appreciating just how vulnerable they were. What direction had they quite gone down? She could not say with any real certainty. Were they safe even? To the outside sources, certainly not.

But as she lowered her hand towards the deck of cards that lay there attached to her belt, she could feel it, the vibrations of the creatures that desperately sought release. A chance to hunt. A chance to play. A chance to dine. Feeling it, hearing the cries of the creatures that had sworn themselves to their service for just the opportunity, the fear and worry faded away from her, replaced instead by a smile, a wicked look of glee that remained upon her face.

“Just maybe, you will have a chance to play,” she said softly, her words floating with the lingering whispers that lined the air. The aberrant, adjusting itself to a sense of hearing far superior than that of what it had once been used to, could not help but be curious. It knew little of its new master, of what she were capable of, of what she were looking to achieve. All that was clear were her manners of influence, that she spoke so softly and convincing as to have itself bet its own freedom in a deal that it should have immediately known to be a trap, it could not help but look on with both interest and disgust. Curiosity and intrigue combined with fury and disdain. Those feelings would come around with time, the woman knew. It may have been the first aberration that she had managed to convince in quite some time, but the circumstances surrounding it were ones that it should have greatly appreciated and have been thankful for.

Eventually, it’ll come around.

They came from the shadows just ahead of them, their appearances hardly that of a surprise, not particularly impressive for them to see either. Many of them, perhaps no more than a dozen or so, gathered behind one another as though there only a single leader. Wolf creatures. Wolf men. Whatever they were called, she recalled the stories of them, tales of them being vicious creatures. Apparently this country was full of them, as if there were another reason for her to find this place terrible. It was her first time truly looking upon them now, and though they tried to move forward with some level of intimidation, they moved back slightly, perhaps not out of respect, but rather intrigue.

A whimper escaped from several of those in the back, fearful of her, of the energy that radiated, the manifestation of the cards echoing throughout, a cacophony of demonic energies parading around them all, each of them as much desperately begging her for a release as they were lashing out at the pack with every possible threat and promise of suffering that they could imagine.

“You hear them, do you not? What are they saying? What promises have my servants made to you all?” Her words were cold, malicious in nature, evil in their fruition. She had them pinned in a corner, the expected predators having now turned into meek prey, terrified at what the woman were to do. Meanwhile, the aberrant stood there, watching in amazement. It could hear them too, the cries of creatures whom had fallen before similar fates as it had, though unlike it whom had seemingly acquired a much better deal by comparison, with every cry it could as much hear the agony that they were suffering. Those creatures, their existence were torturous, suffering eternal, and though they lacked any means of lashing out upon her – undoubtedly subject to the same accursed terms that made it unable to do anything other than serve her faithfully – there would be little doubt in its mind that it would not unleash all of their frustrations upon those beasts before them.

“I am new here, so consider this a unique circumstance you all find yourself within,” she taunted, the delight and absolute control of her situation radiantly spread throughout her voice. “Decide amongst yourselves of just whom survives.” She put a finger upon the back of a card, swiping it upward against the soft cardboard, causing a deafeningly loud cry of demonic energies to flood the alleyway, “Otherwise, I’ll allow my pets to play. The choice is yours.”

Barely another word needed to be said, as the one in front, the presumed pack leader, lashed out upon the ones behind it. Survival of the fittest, she rationalized, watching with a level of glee and delight that more than made up for the uneventful beginning to their time within this dog water of a place. Turning her head, she looked to see how her new servant was reacting, their eyes fixated upon the carnage taking place, not quite sure how to respond or think towards it.

“See, an offer that nobody would be willing to turn down. Their life,” she turned back to the carnage, barely any of the creatures left, now having put up a fight against the leader, likely one that would be the death of all of them, “Or the lives of the others. And look where they ended up. The same place.”

The cries and screams of the creatures pitted against each other, forced into a death match lest they be subjected to the cruelty that would have come by the hands of the demonic forces that stalked them, their excitement and desire to cause havoc overwhelming, if not making the brutal fight all the more vicious. But, as the sound seemed to die down and silence overcame the area, leaving nothing other than the cascading remains of the lingering essence in the air, she looked on, watching as the blood continued to pool beneath the corpses. The pack, the pack in its entirety, having been wiped out. The ones most unsuspecting having been felled first, the others who realized what were going on drawing protest, all of them waging their life in order to escape the greater threat in the mysterious woman and the demons that lingered throughout and all around her. Terrifying, enough that even natural hunters in this unholy land had come to fear.

“Now do you understand? You may find yourself relegated to that body. But your fate is far from poor. Think of them, think of those who drove them to that decision. Really, I gave you a gift,” she remarked, an almost insulting look in her eyes as the aberrant nodded in agreement, finally starting to realize just how good it had it.

“Good, I think you’re starting to get the grasp of this now. Took you a bit longer than I would have hoped, but I suppose all of this must be quite a bit of a shocker to you, isn’t it?” The dismissive, condescending tone within her voice, it echoed all throughout, the aberrant just nodding, speechless. Some out of disbelief, the sight before them, the brutality and without second thought that the pack imploded upon itself in its fighting still wholly fresh in its mind. But also of recognizing the power that was carried by the woman, the ease at which she turned them on one another.

The effortlessness that she conducted herself with, and the reality setting in as to just how quickly she would have stood to unleash that same brutality upon it. But, if there were any relief, it came in the fact that unlike those creatures that happened to have existed and posed a risk to them, there was not that here. The woman, as cold as mysterious as she was, also offered her a sense of freedom, one that had been denied.

While perhaps not ideal, the circumstances surrounding its situation were far from horrible.

“There’s no further need to waste our time worrying about some meaningless creatures that happened to throw their lives away upon a failed venture. Come, I wish to find some sort of civilization. Surely there must be there some within this God-forsaken place!” Giving no further thought or care towards the creatures, she departed, paying little heed to anything of the carnage, except perhaps the large pool of blood that had filled the alleyway, each of her steps deliberately avoiding stepping within the thick crimson beneath them.

“Come!” She called out, the thick fog distorting the view between her and the aberrant, the latter coming to their senses as they followed suit, their movements not quite as elegant, several steps painting a small trail that slowly faded away as they ventured, eventually what blood having tracked behind the aberrant body’s boots disappearing like that of the care that either the woman or even soon the aberrant paid towards the pack that only minutes earlier had threatened them.
