A Wolf Among Sheep [M]

[Astral]

Astral sat on at a table hidden in the corner of a tavern. She had a cloak on to hide her appearance. Her tail was wrapped around her waist and her wings were tucked in close. It was rather uncomfortable but she was willing to bear it. A hood hung over her head so that nobody could see her face. Their were whispers about a strange person sitting in the corner which was obviously her. For some reason nobody dared to approach her. Perhaps her mysteriousness kept them away. Astral was here for one purpose. She was looking for rumors. She had already checked all the markets and shops and couldn't find anyone who could cure her of her heritage. Half of it anyways. So she stayed here listening for any rumors about any powerful magic users. She found mingling with the humans hard to deal with. She felt like strangling them all and she would have to later after she had taken care of more serious problems. Astral continued to listen in her dark little corner of the tavern.

As he steps through the doorway, making his way into the tavern, Ronan's head turns side to side as he shifts his gaze. Shifting his gaze he takes a moment to scan his surroundings for a moment as he makes note of the people in the tavern, a soft growl escaping the male as he glances around. Though he didn't like humans to much, he couldn't deny that they made some good food, a lot better then what he could make. Not only could they make food but some of the other things they made came in handy but at the moment the only thing he thought on was the food, which had brought him here.

Shifting his gaze, something caught his attention, a smell that caused the male to turn his gaze towards the corner with the cloaked figure. His gaze only remained on the figure for a brief moment before it shifts as he looks to an open table close to the table the cloaked figure resided at. Though it was not in the corner where he normally sat, it was close enough and from the looks of it, it didn't seem any others where sitting around the figure. With a table in mind he begins to move once again, working his way around tables and past people before coming to one of the open tables, one sitting next to the one the cloaked figure rested at. Taking a seat, he made sure to sit with his back to the wall though he sat so he could see the cloaked figure from the corner of his eye, and for a moment he simply watched the cloaked figure.

Astral could hear someone approaching further than anyone else before and from the sound she could tell they were heavy which meant it was probably a male. As the man drew closer she dared to look her dragonic eyes visible for a split second. It was a very tall man with muscles that weren't bulging but they were clearly defined. He probably thought much of himself. He probably thought himself better than all the humans here. If Astral could she would consider changing into a purely human form and beating on him just to humiliate him. Astral wondered why he sat near the corner and why he sat near her. He probably didn't fear the unknown. Astral turned her attention back to listing for any rumors.

After having taken a seat at the table, Ronan leaned back into the seat to relax a bit, however since he was in the company of humans he didn't let his guard completely down. It wasn't long after he had taken his seat that Ronan's attention is taken from the area around him and the cloaked figure, as a waitress makes her way over to his table " Greetings sir, what can I get you? " she asks with a smile as she looks at Ronan. Setting his attention on the female, he shifts his gaze over her appearance for a moment before lifting his gaze to her face " Some stew and water will be fine, " He says with a nod. With the request, the waitress nods " I will have it out in a moment, " She says before turning and making her way from the table he sat at.

For a few moments he watched the waitress as she walked off before finally turning his attention from her. Turning his gaze from the waitress he sniffs at the air a few times, lifting his head slightly to get his nose into the air. Before he turns his attention back to the cloaked figure. He could not make out the figure under the cloak, though he knew something was off about whoever was under the cloak. It was not the normal smell of humans that was coming from the cloaked figure. " Hmmm, " he murmurs lightly as he glances towards the cloaked figure.

Astral's mind would have filled with everything violent as Kirnardaz tried to have some effect, and he spoke into Astral's mind.

"Look at the bartender... See, he hurt you..." Kirnardaz created a small illusion of a bartender with the exact facil features he had tortured her with, and slowly made everyone in the room seem to her that they had that face. It just so happened that he didn't change his face.

He tried to make her look in his direction so that se would see him.

[Astral]

Astral wasn't looking at anyone so she didn't notice the illusion that was placed on her, but she still heard the voice. "Get out of my head." Astral yelled out loud. She took her scaly black hands out of her cloak pressed them against the place she once had human ears. She dropped her head on the table and continued to press harder. These voices were really starting to irritate her. She wished they would go away already.

Keeping an eye on her from the corner of his gaze, Ronan remains silent after telling the waitress what he wanted, waiting for her to bring the food he had ordered back to his table so he could eat. All of a sudden the cloaked figure yells out causing him to turn his head and look to the figure, though as he heard the voice he could tell that the figure was female. Setting his gaze upon the female in the corner he watches as she brings her hands to her head, though her hands were not like normal hands but rather appeared to look black with scales, nothing like that of a human hand.

" Interesting.. " he says as he watches the female as she drops her head to the table, still covering her ears with her hands. With the outburst from the cloaked female, everyone in the tavern would no doubt be looking at her just like he was looking at her.

[Astral]

" Interesting.. " Astral heard. She brought her hands back into her clock and sat back up. She looked at the people in the tavern her black scaly face and eyes clearly visible. "What are you all looking at?" The anger inside Astral was starting to build. She hated these people staring at her like she was crazy or something. They were the crazy ones. "Does anyone know of any powerful magic users?" Astral decided to ask. As soon as her question was answered she was going to start killing people. If it wasn't answered then she was going to start killing people slowly.

With his gaze still set on the female, Ronan gets a look at her face when she brought her head up and began to speak. Much like her hand, he could see that her face was scaly as well, though she sounded as if she where a female, he was not completely sure if the cloaked figure was female. The cloaked figure did indeed seem somewhat interesting to him, if the figure was a female he couldn't help but wonder upon how she looked under the cloak.

As she spoke again, he raised an eyebrow at her question about a magic user. Having no answer for her, he remained silent though he keeps his gaze fixed on this strange and interesting female. Glancing away from her for a brief moment, he looks to the others in the tavern as well, seeing that others had their attention set upon this female as well, though given her outburst it was a given.

[Astral]

Nobody responded to her question and they all kept staring at her. She had had enough. It was time to rid the world of some more humans. Astral cast off her cloak and stretched out her wings and tail. She was so glad to finally have them free from their constraints. Astral wore no clothing underneath the cloak she didn't see the reason for it. Her whole body was covered in scales anyways.

Astral went for the first person in front of her. She grabbed the man by the throat and picked him up. She slightly dug her claws into is neck his blood streaming down her fingers. "I could kill you right now. Beg me and I might, otherwise this is going to take awhile." Astral said with much malice in her voice.
