Danel, Mammon, and Manitos knelt in front of him waiting. They were expecting others today. He said he wanted Semyaza here, and he got it. At least they all managed to accomplish something. As for everything else, there was reprimanding to be dealt out. His nails tapped on the edge of the armrest and the door opened slowly. In walked the halfling, followed by three men. Good. They were all present. She whispered something to them and pointed to the floor before kneeling before him. When the others followed suit, his golden eyes lowered to the tops of their heads. Halfling. She raised her head and he motioned for her to stand. The girl jumped to her feet with a chirp and stood uneasily before him. "Um, hello, My Liege. I've brought them for you like you requested -- Semyaza, Azrael, and Sariel." She motioned to each of them. He waved his finger for them to rise as well and she tugged on Semyaza's sleeve. What of Azazel? You said you could do this. "Y - yes, My Liege. I do -- I can. I have it all figured out. You will have Azazel before our next meeting." He nodded and she returned to kneeling. Danel, what of Temeluchas? I do hope you have good news. There was a harshness laced into his words. The Dark Angel rose to his feet and nodded his head solemnly. "Yes, My Liege. Temeluchas has been obtained. She is currently residing within a shard from the Hall of Mirrors. While she is not dead, she cannot cause further trouble. She is well contained. After we've succeeded, you may break it and determine her fate. Within that amount of time, she should return to her old self." Contained was not dead. Danel, I warned you about messing up again. The angel knelt, spasming and crying in pain. Manitos! "My Liege," she chirped, rising to her feet. "I ... I have some disappointing news." She flinched as he leaned forward. "You see, after further searching, we've come to the conclusion that the Gates are most likely not located where we had reason to believe they were." We? "I," she corrected. Manitos fell to the ground beside Danel in pain. Does anyone have good news? The talons on Mammon's feet clicked against the marble floor and he rose to his feet. "Your Highness, I have been following that one you spoke of -- Xathanael. I believe she has led me to the location of your brother. She's been underground for a few days, but should be surfacing soon. If she does, Leviathan will be able to return to us." There was a long silence. Mammon looked uneasy, like he was trying to figure out whether or not he would be on the ground as well. The Morning Star nodded, pleased. Good. Go. You are dismissed. His talons clicked against the floor again before he fled the throne room. His golden eyes settled on the three newcomers. Semyaza, it is a pleasure to see you again. My, how long it has been. Your boy there will go with the halfling to bring Azazel. I am tired of waiting for her arrival. As for the two of you, his gaze fell on Azrael and Sariel, I want that shard and you need to start building an army, not killing off the army.
We were all lame at picking usernames in 2009. That's why you become premium, so you can pretend like the original never existed. ~~ P.S: Hola mi amigo.
[/url]"I think you look better with them than without." Ooooooooo. He was a charmer. She smiled brighter and grabbed Adam's hand, pulling him out into the hall. "So um, yeah. This is Hell, and all that jazz. The Dark Angels are pretty big on appearance, so it looks a lot nicer in here than it does out there. I live outside, but my place isn't as ranky - dank as a lot of the demons. I have class." She fanned her face with her hand dramatically. "I could live up there, in MidWorld, but that would involve always having to use the glamour which is just laaaaaaaame." Her lips pushed out into a pout and she let go of Adam's hand. Ahranna stood in front of the staircase leading up. She glanced hesitantly over at Adam. The fun would have to wait, unfortunately. She cleared her throat. "Any who, he um, He wants to see you. We each have our own jobs and responsibilities. I think everyone will be up there -- Danel, Mammon, Manitos. Oh! I have to go find that Alistair guy. Shoot. I knew I was forgetting something. And that um ... what's - his - face? Whoever Sariel is. I don't remember his name. All I know is he keeps beating up lesser demons in the basement, which is not helping with our whole 'building an army' thing. Stupid. I hope we get to work together. That would be fun. I have the best job." Ahranna looked around uncertainly for a moment. "Wait right here. I'mma go grab those other two right now so I don't have to make a second trip. If any demons come upstairs, be careful. They are a lot stronger here than up there." She gave him a quick smile before taking off down the hall.
[/url]Ahranna skipped down the halls with an enthusiastic smile on her face. There was a visitor. ~ One of her friends had come to play. Danel informed her of Adam's arrival last night. She wondered if he would recognize her in her true form. The glamour always played down her looks. She thought her horns and black masque were her best features. The silly humans never got to see her that way. Harrumph. Oh well. She hopped to a stop in front of his door and knocked twice with a bright smile on her face. When the door opened, she threw herself into his arms. "Hi Adam!" she greeted cheerfully before pulling away. "It's Ahranna from New Zealand. Do you remember me? I hope so. I remember you." She have him a spiraling poke to the chest before hopping back a step. Ahranna glanced around the hall before her big - doey eyes shined up at him. She tugged on a lock of technicolored hair and twirled around her finger. "It's so cool that you're working with us now. I hate having to hide my horns. Do you like them?" She stroked the black bones sticking out of her head. Ahranna gave him a big grin and clapped her hands together. SOOOOOOOOOO much fun could be had now.

[/url]HE FIGURED THINGS WOULD END RATHER SOUR AFTER HE THEIR TALK TO ALEJANDRA. SHE SEEMED INTERESTED UP UNTIL LEON SAID SOMETHING, BUT THE FACTS WERE THE FACTS AND SHE NEEDED TO KNOW JUST HOW DANGEROUS THIS WAS GOING TO BE. HE LET BRANDON TRY AND REINFORCE THE POSITIVE AFTER HE DAMPENED THE MOOD. LEON WAS JUST PRETTY SURE HE'D NEVER BE HAPPY AGAIN -- NOT IN THIS LIFETIME. HE STEPPED AWAY FROM BRANDON AND ALEJANDRA. THE KID WOULD PROBABLY DO BETTER WITHOUT HIM. "IT WAS NICE TO MEET YOU MISS. SO YOU IN THE MORNING." HE GAVE HER A HALF WAVE AND A NOD BEFORE MAKING HIS WAY BACK UPSTAIRS. JOSLYN CAME OUT AND ANNOUNCED THAT SHE HAD RECEIVED A TEXT MESSAGE FROM KAI THAT THEY WERE RELATIVELY ALL RIGHT. SHE TOLD THEM OF THEIR CURRENT LOCATION AND HE HAD RESPONDED SAYING THEY WERE ON THEIR WAY THERE. THAT WAS GOOD. HE PATTED THE GIRL ON THE HEAD BEFORE CONTINUING ON. LEON KNOCKED ON SAM'S DOOR. "HEY, YOU IN THERE?" HE FIGURED HE SHOULD CHECK TO SEE HOW THE WHOLE FIRE STARTING THING WAS GOING. LEON MAY NOT BE ABLE TO WORK OUT HIS OWN ISSUES WITH HAY SUN NOW, BUT THAT DIDN'T MEAN HE WOULDN'T KEEP HELPING SAM WITH HIS DESIRE TO BE BETTER FOR XATHANAEL. HE OPENED THE DOOR WITH A TOWEL OVER HIS HEAD. "What do you want?" "THE CAMPFIRE -- HAVE YOU MANAGED TO START IT YET?" HE ASKED. "Oh, that? I started that before that hotel got attacked. Why are you asking now?" HE ASKED, PULLING THE TOWEL DOWN FROM HIS DAMP HAIR. "YOU NEVER TOLD ME YOU MANAGED TO ACCOMPLISH IT. I FIGURED YOU WOULD WANT TO KEEP GETTING BETTER, BUT I GUESS IF YOU DON'T, THEN WHATEVER." LEON SHOVED HIS HANDS IN HIS POCKETS AND TURNED TO WALK AWAY. "Whoa whoa whoa, hey! I did plan on telling you," THE BURLY MAN MUTTERED. "I meant to tell you, but then, everything went to shit and you didn't exactly seem to be in the best of moods. What's the next thing I should do?" LEON TURNED BACK AROUND WITH A SHRUG. "IF YOU WANNA KEEP WORKING ON IT, JUST COME FIND ME IN THE MORNING. MY BAD MOOD ISN'T GOING TO KEEP ME FROM HELPING SOMEONE, JUST SO YOU KNOW." HE RAN HIS FINGERS THROUGH HIS HAIR AND GAVE SAM A WAVE BEFORE HEADING TO HIS ROOM TO SLEEP. Kai fell asleep on the plane.
With a thoroughly surprising notification from Adam, Danel was on his way to the surface. He was surprised to hear that they managed to accomplish catching Temeluchas. When Adam was involved ... well, things usually didn't happen -- like at all. Oh well. There's a first time for everything. The mist parted and he was standing on the top of a temple. Interesting. There was a clear division in sides and sighed. One look at where the flames were, was enough for him to not want to risk anything. FREEZE. He licked his lips and approached Adam and Alistair. "Looks like you guys had some fun up here." His wings flapped behind his back and he set one hand on each of their respective shoulders. "We have a slight pit stop to make on the way back to the palace." The mist wrapped around them and they were gone before the others could acknowledge their presence. When it cleared, they were standing in the woods and the temperature was at a significantly cooler degree than before. A group of five teenagers sat huddled together and he sighed. Danel snapped his fingers one more time, activating the Freeze once more. It would be easier to bring them all back if he didn't have Soren fighting with him. He motioned for Alistair and Adam to help him. "Apparently they thought they could just leave -- children. Could the both of you grab onto them?" It only took a minute and when they were all linked together, the mist engulfed them a final time. It dissipated once they reached the Nephilim's room. The children had unfroze and looked both disoriented and confused. Soren had used all of his energy trying to get them out of Hell, so Danel wouldn't have to worry about him attempting something so stupid any time soon. It would take him a f e w D A Y S at least to recover. He patted Mali on the head and she smiled up at him with a pleased look. Whatever. Danel walked out of the room with Adam and Alistair and pointed to the door at the end of the hall. "That room straight ahead there is Semyaza's. It'll be your room now. The one next to it on the right is Israfil's and the left is Samuel's. Alistair's is next to that one and is now back in working order. Um, I'm not really sure what Regulus is up to, but he's been spending a lot of time in the basement experimenting on all the rogue demons down there." He started to walk away before stopping in front of the door on his left. "Oh, this is Harbonah's room by the way." He knocked on the door before disappearing down the hall.

⎡WEARING ✑ DAY⁝ 66 4/4 ✑ WRITING⎤ ⎣LOCATION⁝ Aztec Pyramid ❮Mexico City, Mexico❯⎦ Sal was giving some sort of big speech. Apparently during all of his unconsciousness, he missed a lot. His reddish - brown eyes fell on the body laying on the ground. His thumbs circled his temples and he was pretty sure he might have a concussion. ‷ Regardless of the act that had been committed though, that does not change the fact that we are separated from the rest of our allies and need to regroup. As such, we should leave as soon as possible. Though, that does leave the two pressing issues of what to with the body of the deceased angel and what to do with our friend Doctor Grey. I personally have no opinion when it comes to whether we take him along or not, but I would like to hear the opinion of the rest of you. ‴ Kai looked around. Adam didn't look happy and neither did Henri -- ‷ Stop your whining. It was Araquiel who killed her, not me. ‴ Henrik looked down at the body, and Kai followed his line of sight. That was the person everyone was so afraid of? She didn't look too harmless in that state. ‷ Alistair had no problem with letting us die. He's been on their side the entire time. If anyone has no problem with being back - stabbed in the future... He's no friend. ‴ He licked his bottom lip and shoved his hands into his pockets. That wasn't really fair now was it? About that, you and Araquiel share the same body, so actions your angel makes in your body are your responsibility. You can't just pass off blame. Everyone is still going to see your face at the end of the day, not Araquiel's. You can't deny you were probably thinking about it. I see the way you look at everyone, like you're one blink away from taking out everyone. I'm not disagreeing with the fact that the group always runs into this guy when she's around, he pointed to Alistair and then the deceased body of the Dark Angel, but it doesn't mean he killed anyone either. Didn't he save that Leon guy like ... twice or something? Plus, Sal's right. If she was really as bad off as Adam and that guy said, then there was no need to stab her just yet. She could have been helpful, especially if she was in Temeluchas's pocket for a long time. She probably heard stuff, not that we'll know now. Kai stepped closer to the body and nudged it with the toe of his shoe. It didn't do anything, as expected. He sighed and glanced back up at the others. Can we just ... I dunno, do that burning thing to it and leave? Does anyone here have those fire powers?
[/url]❥ There was a heavy thud behind her back and Marina lifted her head to see Sangria looming over her, with a body laying on the floor. Just great. She sighed, gathering up the cards. Sangria knelt down beside her -- helping, what for? -- with an amused look on her face. ⦇ I have to say, hun, you certainly know how to start a party. Maybe I was wrong about you after all. ⦈ How great of you to notice. Marina rolled her eyes. She really did not care for Sangria's approval. It mattered little to her. The wine temptress was still helping clean up her things, though most of it was already stacked up. Her eyes ran over the presentation once more and she seemed please. Augh. ⦇ Ooh. It looks like this game of yours really would have been something ... I can just imagine the explosive sense of passion it would have brought in those pawns. ⦈ Sangria appeared mournful as she placed the last of Marina's things into the pile. The brunette scooped them up in one arm, leveling her gaze with the drunken twit. ⦇ Maybe even more passionate than the game that brought you into existence, Coooooordinator ... ⦈ How dare she! How dare she bring up the game and sound so condescending towards it. Sangria did not know whom she was toying with. Marina would not stand for this. Her eyes were blazing and her heart raced. Sangria could act as fake as she wanted, but Marina knew the truth -- she empathized with her. She could read the emotions of every Valen in here, even the ones that thought they were so clever at hiding their feelings. She could tell what the temptress was really thinking, and it was neither praise nor comfort in the cancellation of her game. Marina was done with her. She rose to her feet without a word. Sangria took a sip off her cup filled with dark liquor. Yeah, just keep drinking. That was what she was good at, right? The music changed and it seemed to elate the other woman. ⦇ Oh! It's your theme song! ⦈ How cute. ⦇ That is so sweet of you to say, Sangria. ⦈ She smiled through the anger. Maybe there was still a way - a way to save them. She just needed to try harder. She needed to find Devyn and Rhia. Rhia might know, and she shared a common interest with Devyn. The other immortal most likely hated her and they had not seen one another since arriving here, but Devyn wanted Chester and she wanted Harley and Theodore. There was common ground. If anyone would be forthcoming with answers, it would be Rhia. She was sweet like strawberry milk and had convinced Theodore that she was his sister. She obviously was not, but perhaps she would pretend once he arrived here. He would need someone, someone more than her. Even without the game, Harley and Theo would probably hate her for making them into this. She hated being this. Without the gameboard, could she bring the versions she knew, not whatever pair would have been in this new board? Marina wanted them to remember her, but she did not want them to suffer again. She choked on air. ⦇ I could use some fresh air. ⦈ She gathered her things to leave, rising to her feet. Marina only made it a few steps before being interrupted once more. Augh. Sometimes her powers were a burden, like now. She just wanted to slip out undetected to search for Devyn and Rhia, but the people here were not going to let that happen. ⦇ You know, if it's worth anything, I'm not much of a fighter. Too much excitement for my tastes. No, I prefer to just sit and talk. Well, usually, anyways. ⦈ How great. He was a talker, among other things. He took a seat near where she was, popping the bottle open after fully settling into his spot. She sat down beside him at the new table. Garret -- he had told her his name before the presentation started. The only bright side was that if he was a talker, she could perhaps coerce some useful secrets out of him. ⦇ I am glad to hear you are not as much of a neanderthal as the rest of them. ⦈ Her smile was sweet, but the racing of her heart sent tingling sensations throughout her body. She needed to calm down or she would overwhelm the whole bar. She did not want to excite them into a frenzy with her emotions. The empathy worked both ways if she was not careful. While she could read others, she could also influence others with her own. ⦇ So, that said, let's try to get to know each other better. ⦈ Garret poured them both a couple of drinks while speaking. ⦇ Of course, that is if you want to. ⦈ The tattooed Valen grabbed his glass and downed it in one swift motion. ⦇ Of course sugar. I would be delighted to get to know you better. ⦈ She left the glass untouched. Her elbows rested on the table and she set her chin down on her fists. Marina leaned over the tabletop, putting herself closer to Garret with a subdued look of ecstasy on her face. She bit her lower lip and bat her dark lashes up at him. He poured himself so more to drink, knocking back shot after beer after shot. She watched him closely, studying. Once upon a time, she used to be the best at reading people, though that was now due to a fact she hated to admit. It was not her ability to read people, just the influence of the Valens playing as her. His eyes were locked on her, clearly studying her as well -- for obvious different reasons. The bottle was to his lips, about to take a sip, when he seemed to have some sort of mild revelation. ⦇ Man, no matter how many times I look at you, I can't get over how pretty you look. ⦈ He said under his breath. ⦇ How sweet of you to say, ⦈ she purred. Garret poured himself more to drink. Did Valen ever stop drinking? She wanted to look around the room for Annalynne -- see where the Witch ended up during the madness -- but resisted. This was more important at the moment. ⦇ Oh, where are my manners? ⦈ Quickly, he grabbed the poured drink and offered it to her. ⦇ Care for a drink? I knew there was something I was forgetting. ⦈ He let out a sheepish chuckle. She smiled brighter and sat up straight, accepting the drink. Marina pretended to take a sip, but let the liquid all fall back into the glass. She cared little about drinking ever since becoming a Valen. There were more important things and she needed her wits about her -- not that alcohol could truly effect her anyway. She set the glass down and reached across, resting a hand lightly on Garret's forearm. She chewed at her lower lip with bright blue eyes sparkling up at him. ⦇ I was hoping you would come find me after we left the Hall of Games. I was ever so interested in getting to know you more. ⦈ She ran her thumb over the back of his hand in circular, massaging motions. Her free hand smoothed out the skirt of her dress and she crossed her legs at the knees. She felt herself inching ever so much closer. Men were the easiest to manipulate. Human or Valen, it was all the same. A pretty face could get you anywhere, especially when you were quite literally radiating sexual desire. It bored her. She missed Harley. They were the same, and yet he did an excellent job at never giving ii. It was fun to go back and forth with him and then ... and then when he did kiss her ... She swallowed a lump in her throat. Theo was like that too and he kept her alive in more than one way. She owed him her life and she felt for him in a similar way to Harley. What would she do, if she did accomplish her goal? Her heart was torn in two and yet here she was, putting up her facade to claw secrets out of male Valen for her own personal gain. She really was no better than the rest of them...♕ XX XX XX
❮ Reminder fledglings, tomorrow at midnight will be the full moon ritual. As always, classes will be a half day and lunch will ensue after the ritual. The Dark Daughters will meet at the same time. For those of you that have never partaken in a full moon ritual, it is a very special event. Merry meet, merry part, and merry meet again fledglings. ❯ The voice that ran through each of the students and faculties' minds ended as abruptly as it started. There was a nod by the professor at the front of the class and the rest of the students began to gather their things. It was almost midnight now, twenty - four hours before the full moon ritual. Lunch would start in just a couple minutes and fledglings vacated the classrooms to make their way down to the cafeteria. Some had short walks within the halls of the Main Hall, while others walked a great deal across campus from the field house and the stables. Chatter filled up the halls, reaching all the way to the cafeteria. The selection for food was as elaborate as always. It seemed to be filling yet healthy ranging from steak to salmon, always served with salad on the side. A table sits at the center of the room with an arrangement of food and drink -- an offering to the goddess Nyx, Mother of Vampyres.
[/url]LEON HAD WAITED PATIENTLY FOR ALEJANDRA TO REPLY. IT DIDN'T TAKE LONG FOR A RESPONSE TO COME FROM HER, AND SHE SEEMED TO BE BURSTING WITH QUESTIONS. "Sorry. Just, please answer my first two questions. I shouldn't bombard you with so many questions at once." HE OPENED HIS MOUTH TO REPLY WHEN BRANDON CAME OUT OF NOWHERE. LEON HELD UP HIS HAND TO STOP THE BOY, BUT A RIVER OF KNOWLEDGE CAME FLOWING OUT OF THE KID. HE WANTED TO STOP HIM FROM JUST BLURTING IT ALL OUT RIGHT THERE IN THE LOBBY. NOT ONLY WOULD IT MAKE THEM LOOK LIKE CRAZY PEOPLE, BUT IT WOULD ALSO DRAW A LOT OF ATTENTION. THAT DID NOT STOP BRANDON. "So yeah, basically what being a fallen angel entails is traveling around the world in search of other fallen angels all whilst getting stronger to allow ourselves the ability to fight the forces of hell who kind of want to take over the entire world, because they aren't nice." LEON INTERNALLY FACE - PALMED. HE BURIED HIS FACE IN HIS HANDS. IT WAS ... SOMETHING. THERE WAS NO WAY THEY WERE GOING TO GET HER TO JUMP ON BOARD SO EASILY. BRANDON WAS ONLY OVER - VIEWING WHAT WAS GOING ON. HE SIGHED. WHEN BRANDON FINISHED, HE SHOT HIM A LOOK. LEON WOULD TAKE OVER FROM HERE. "So... Then that means...." SLOWLY, SHE STARTED, "I pretty much have no choice, then." HE NODDED. "I mean, from the way Mr. Straightforward put it, it's either I join you or die by being overwhelmed by Hell's forces." SHE TUCKED A LOCK OF HAIR BEHIND HER EAR. "Between you and me, not dying sounds like the obvious choice," SHE QUIPPED. "I mean, any sane person would choose to live. But, let me ask you this: This battle against Hell, what are the chances of us surviving with the people and the training you have right now?" LEON LOOKED UP AT HER GRIMLY FROM ACROSS THE RECEPTION DESK. "AS IT STANDS, NOT WELL. WE'VE BEEN LOSING OUR NUMBERS. TO BE COMPLETELY HONEST ALEJANDRA, WE CAN'T GUARANTEE YOUR SAFETY WHETHER YOU'RE WITH US OR NOT, WE CAN ONLY SAY THAT YOUR ODDS ARE A LITTLE HIGHER OF SURVIVING. HOWEVER, WE JUST HAD TWO PEOPLE DIE AND FOUR OTHERS WERE ABDUCTED." HIS EXPRESSION WAS PAINED AS HE RECALLED THE LOSS OF HAY SUN. "I'M SORRY. I JUST -- I THOUGHT YOU SHOULD KNOW THE TRUTH. THE THINGS THAT ARE GOING ON RIGHT NOW ARE HORRIBLE, AND WE ARE THE ONLY ONES THAT CAN PREVENT IT. THOUGH, THAT MEANS NOT ALL OF US WILL SURVIVE IT." HE DID HIS BEST TO FORCE A SMILE TO NO AVAIL. LEON SET A HAND ON BRANDON'S SHOULDER AND TOOK A STEP BACK FROM THE COUNTER. HE PROBABLY WASN'T HELPING THE SITUATION, BUT EVERYONE SHOULD KNOW WHAT THEY WERE GETTING INTO. "IF YOU NEED PROOF ABOUT WHO AND WHAT YOU ARE, WE CAN SHOW YOU. THOUGH, BRANDON SORT OF DID THAT, DIDN'T HE?" HE SCOWLED AT THE ONE WHO CAUSED ELECTRIC SPARKS IN THE LOBBY.
Rules ✖ Signups ✖ Updates ✖ Discussions Merry meet, fledgling. Welcome to a new life, a new world, and a new you. Welcome to the Salt Lake House of Night! This might seem like a scary time, Fledgling, but never fear! As you start your journey through the ancient halls of the House of Night, these indispensable classes will aid you in your transition from human to fledgling. Within these walls you will find invaluable information about the history of vampyres. You will also come to a better understanding of your body’s transformation, as well as read words of hope from great vampyres of the past and learn essential foundations of rituals and lore. Now, Fledgling, learn on. A new life awaits you; your path to that magickal future begins here! "Was I filled with fear, uncertainty, and trepidation the day I was Marked? Of course. But soon I learned fear can be overcome by faith; uncertainty can lead to new beginnings, and trepidation can be vanquished by confidence. Being Marked is truly about the magick of possibilities..." - SHEKINAH High Priestess of Vampyres HOUSE RULES CLASS EMBLEMS CLASSES STAFF DORMITORIES DARK DAUGHTERS & SONS MENTORS/MENTEES RESOURCES ⓵ If you’ve been Marked by a Tracker, night has chosen thee. You will go through the Change and turn into a vampyre. However, if your body rejects the Change, you die. ⓶ If you are Marked, you must leave your home and move into the House of Night school, where you will take your place as a fledgling and live for four years. ⓷ At the House of Night School, classes begin at 8pm and end at 3am. The gym is open until dawn. ⓸ You can never be far from an adult Vampyre for long. And it’s not like you’ll turn into a pumpkin. It’s a much bigger deal than that. ⓹ Formal rituals are held at Nyx’s Temple twice a week. At the ceremony’s commencement, turn to the east, south, west and north to summon (in order) air, fire, water and earth. ⓺ If one of the cats at the school chooses you, you will belong to him or her. Not the other way around. ⓻ Every High Priestess is given an affinity, or special powers, by the Goddess. ⓼ If you ever leave school grounds, you cannot wear any part of your uniform (which is primarily basic black) and must conceal all tattoo markings. ⓽ Here at the House of Night school, there are no lockers. You will have cabinets in your homeroom. If someone steals something, the vamps will know it. As will Nyx. PROFESSORS What it signifies: The professors’ symbol is the silver embroidered image of Nyx with her arms upraised and her hands cupping a crescent moon. THIRD FORMERS What it signifies: The third formers’ symbol is embroidered in silver in the shape of a spiral that glitters in a delicate circle. The symbol – the silver labyrinth of the Goddess Nyx – stands for a new beginning for the third formers as they walk the Path of Night and learn the ways of the Goddess. A 3rd Former would be the same as a Freshman, but students vary in age. FOURTH FORMERS What it signifies: The golden wings of Eros are the fourth formers’ symbol. Eros – the love god – is the child of Nyx’s seed. The symbol reminds the fourth formers of Nyx’s capacity to love and also represents the students’ continuous movement forward. A 4th Former would be the same as a Sophomore, but students vary in age. FIFTH FORMERS What it signifies: The fifth former emblem represents Nyx’s golden chariot pulling a trail of stars. The chariot illustrates the fifth formers’ continuation of Nyx’s journey. The stars represent the magic of a fledgling’s first two years at the House of Night. A 5th Former would be the same as a Junior, but students vary in age. SIXTH FORMERS What it signifies: The sixth formers’ symbol is an embroidered silver silhouette of the three Fates, the children of Nyx. The sixth formers all wear the emblem of the Fates, the goddesses of destiny. The scissors signify the end or break of the formers’ time at the House of Night.

They have roughly about six floors, not every room is used. Each dorm has a lounge area and a kitchen. The bedrooms have twin beds with attached bathrooms and walk in closets. They are allowed to be personalized in any manner a student sees fit. The kitchens are always fully stocked with snacks and beverages, but do to the delicate condition the fledgling bodies are in, there is rarely any unhealthy foods or drinks in the in the cupboards and refrigerators. They are designed to keep the fledglings as healthy as possible to make the Change an easier transition. The lounges are on the main floor. They have large televisions, big comfy chairs and couches, fooseball / pool tables, cabinets filled with movies and video games. There is also a separate computer lab in each of the dorms with about ten computers in each for studying and whatnot. Fledglings are allowed to mingle in the dorms of the opposite gender. There aren't room checks or supervisors monitoring the dorms. They are given trust. The only rule being that they are not allowed in the opposite dorm after curfew, which is seven a.m. They need to be back into their dorms before the sun comes up, due to their sensitivity to light.

[/url]❥ This was absolutely, positively, the most ridiculous thing she had ever seen. For a bunch of immortals, they were worse than the humans that did not exist. Annalynne had not even had the chance to sit down with her. Some other from the gameboard group had taken the seat without any regard. Not to mention, the table was damn well broken now. She jumped to her feet, backpedaling away from the Fairwynian that landed in front of her. Marina backed into another that put his meaty hands on her shoulder. She looked up to see his salacious grin smiling down on her and she swung her heel up between his legs. There was no way she was dealing with this right now. She slipped her way through the crowds and up to the bar -- no, not for a drink. Marina set her hands down on the counter and stepped up onto one of the stools. She climbed her way onto the counter, watching the chaos ensue. This was stupid and she was wasting her time. Why even bother trying to stop it? She sighed. ⦇ Excuse me, ⦈ she called out to no avail. ⦇ Excuse me! ⦈ Marina bit her bottom lip and raised her arms high above her head. Her words were laced with the seductive power she harnessed to the full extent. There were a lot of bodies in the room and she needed to command the attention of all of them. She gave the crowd a quick wink and a smile, even though it thoroughly repulsed her. She did not want the attention of any of them, but if got the mindless fighting to end, then so be it. Marina motioned for a change in music, wanting to get rid of the obnoxious bagpipes. The bartender looked displeased, but obliged due to the fact that he could not resist her at the moment. She licked her lower lip and shined a smile down upon him. That seemed to do the trick. This made her want to vomit, but their group already had a bad repoir with the people of Fairwyn due to whatever was happening at the castle. She did not want things to get even worse. ⦇ Look at you all -- fighting, and over what? Nothing really. Would it not be more fun to dance or enjoy one's company? ⦈ Subliminal seduction and pheromone manipulation -- between the two powers, it was not hard to influence the whole bar. The music shifted to something lively and bumping. Patrons moved together, bumping and grinding. Her nose wrinkled at the scene; this might have been worse. A hand reached up her calve and she kicked the person away. She sat down on the bar, hopping off of the counter. Her heels clicked against the hardwood and she smoothed out the wrinkles in her dress. The presentation she had set up for the game was scattered across the floor from the broken table. She squeezed between the bodies and knelt down to gather it all up. It was all she had left of them. Her hand rested on her chest, feeling for the folded up letter and sighed outwardly at its presence.♕ XX XX XX
[/url] LEON WALKED THE STAIRS OF THE HOTEL TO SEE THAT RECEPTIONIST AT THE DESK ONCE MORE. NO ONE ELSE SEEMED TO BE UP OR AT LEAST ACTIVE YET. HE HAD REGRETTABLY LEFT THE CAN IN THE ROOM AFTER HE CHANGED. HE FELT HESITANT TO APPROACH THE WOMAN, BUT IF VINCENT HAD SPOKEN TO HER LAST NIGHT, THEN SHE PROBABLY HAD LOADS OF QUESTIONS. HE STOPPED AT THE DESK, HIS GOLDEN EYES LANDING ON THE GIRL. WITH ONE GLANCE, SOMETHING ABOUT HER REMINDED HIM OF HAY SUN. ALEJANDRA HAD A FIERY SPARK TO HER, BUT NOTHING THAT COULD COMPARE. LEON LEANED ON THE COUNTER AND RAN HIS FINGERS THROUGH HIS FAIR HAIR. HE CLEARED HIS THROAT AND GLANCED AROUND TO SEE IF ANYONE WAS IN EAR SHOT. "EXCUSE ME. ALEJANDRA RIGHT? I WANTED TO TALK TO YOU ABOUT YOUR NIGHT WITH VINCENT." HE LEANED BACK AND SLIPPED HIS HANDS INTO HIS FRONT POCKETS.
⎡WEARING ✑ DAY⁝ 66 3/4 ✑ WRITING⎤ ⎣LOCATION⁝ Aztec Pyramid ❮Mexico City, Mexico❯⎦ Kai awoke for the first real time in days. He sat up with a splitting headache. His head was spinning and he had to set both hands down flat on the stone beneath him. Gravel dug into the cut on his hand and he winced, looking down at it. He could only vaguely remember receiving the cut to his hand before everything went black again. Trying to recollect all that happened over the last few days was like trying to open ones eyes through murky water. It was a haze and painful. He carefully looked around to see everyone up, save for Sal. Adam, Henrik, and that other guy seemed to be having some sort of conversation and he couldn't really process it right now. He tried to ask what was going on, but every attempt at using his power resulted in more head spinning. It took every ounce of energy for Kai to pull himself to his feet. He stood shakily and held his head. His reddish - brown eyes searched the faces of the other men and he squinted in the light. Is ... is everything ... okay? Kai held head and swayed briefly. His shaggy brown hair fell into his eyes and he blew it away, trying to see. They were apparently still at that pyramid and everyone appeared to be on edge. Something must have happened to keep them alive.
