Lumikki watched the waves reek havoc. She let her body sway with the push and pull on the ship. And when she saw a large one coming, the Daemon would simply take to the sky. The raining pouring hard down on her and the men, but as the wave struck. It sent most of them into the waters. The other bunch that were still onboard, were too fixated on distracting the shark, but the ones water side were panicking. The waves threatening to carry them all away, but she just watched, keeping them all in sight. X’s marked them all by the power of her eye, as she would watch them drift.
They miserable men began to beg and plead for the Revna. Hopping to sway her to save them.
”I already told ye. Make me yer Revna and win me favor. Now that yer lives, for which I already predicted, are in danger. I demand more of the fools who would dare doubt me and hold out on me kind offer….”And so they all did, all the men below and above would plead. Save for Kekoa who still focused on only his catch. Cursing his luck that the wave got in his way but still he tried for the shark. It’s fin appearing and disappearing with the waves putting all the over board men off ease.
And she would continue to make them beg. Until their singing of her praises and oaths of allegiance were met. Until they swore what little of their lives remained before her.
The Daemon who was looking down at them the whole time would make a wild grin, as the fools finally won over her pity.
And with her keen eyes, she got to work. She pulled her Abyss Spine from her void and swung it down. Many frost talons would form and scoop those taken. Even the ones that seemed the most lost and far away were easily sought out and taken into her grasp.
She will them for all to be back on ship, and as soon as they touched deck, they kissed the floors and sang her praises once more. Most of these men were brothers, and would never want to lose another. All of them but one, were moved.
Lumi looked to the shark still darting the waters, focusing her mana into her staff so that a disk may form and grow. She sent it toward the shark that could not dodge it even if he had wanted to. A frost talon came down to scoop him in his frail state, and keeping him above water killed off the rest of the life he had. When the shark laid limb, she placed it on the boat. Flapping her wings hard so that her cold gale would help the boat assure. The crew singing louder in their merriment. And they were set to honor their end of her pact.
When they touched land, Lumikki went for Kekoa’s neck. The rest would not stop her, part their oath, part they agree. There was a fury in them for almost losing their lives yet again. Usually Kekoa was sound in his judgement, but as soon as there’s a monster noted in the nearby deep, he throws away all regards. Their frustration melded with hers, silently agreeing to no longer set out for monsters.
She clamped down hard and froze him so he dare not strike her.
”Enough. I am tired of this. Feel free to kill yerself but leave the rest at home as ya do it,” she looked over to the rest of the men, the rain still pouring down hard.
”If this fool manages to lose his life, be sure the boy still has a home…” Most would nod. Moved just as much from her fury as her power and compassion. They not regret the pacts they made and hope that she would continue to watch over them when she would come back over.
