Am I part of them? Are they part of me? |
Flynn's grip tightened on Lelana for just a second before going back to the loose hold. "Because Ganon is patient! Every one hundred years, he lays n wait 'fore risin ta try n stomp out Hylia's warrior n the princess. Why should we go n be impatient n gathering power for him." He shook his head, watching as the rest backed up, but mother remained impatient.
"'sides. Some people up n lock up outta fear of you guys. What if ya do it ta her n we go n lose a potential healer n fighter for our lord's cause? She ain't really ever left n traveled up till now." He keeps his posture straight, and his eyes trained on the Skulltula walking forwards. "Yall're pretty good at scarin people outta their minds when ya wrap em' up. Not ta count what yalls bite does." He sighs, looking down at Lelana's spear. Just maybe the mother would think she did drop it out of fear. Something to help him, he couldn't rightly betray Ganon. There's no telling what would happen to him. Besides, he didn't want to.
He said he'd be loyal if he saved him. Ganon saved him, he promised loyalty, and Flynn didn't break promises. He'd do his damnest to find a way out of this.

Lelana was frightened there was no denying that so she decided to try her hand at theatrics and her legs started to crumple beneath herself as a look of terror spread across her face as the larger skulltila approached.
She wasn’t sure if he would find her act to be real or not but that wasn’t the point. Grabbing his arm tightly she whispered hoarsely “please don’t let them kill me, I’m not ready to face judgement yet,” her hands where shaking.
Let the enemy think she was weak. She would be ready for them if they tried to attack.

With a grating and unnatural sounding hiss, the larger skulltula backs away. “Very well. Do it your way if you must. If we ever see this one again though and she hasn’t sworn herself to the master it will go poorly…. For both of you.”
Walking back towards the cliff, she bites down on the still struggling lizalfos and she and her brood start back down the cliff. Looking for more easy prey. On that note, she turns around, shooting a thick strand of sticky web at the skewer of fish at the campfire, “We will take this to lure more lizard men. If she finds herself hungry after her change, find us. We are loyal servants of Ganon.”
Well, that certainly could have gone worse! FlynnLelana

Am I part of them? Are they part of me? |
Flynn tensed at the web, and watched as the Skulltula left. He felt a tiny wave of relief wash over him, and he was more than glad that the spider was at least kind of reasonable. "Get yer stuff." It was time to move to a slightly colder hiding spot. What are the odds he'd run into a fellow servant of Ganon all the way out here. "She says if ya haven' sworn yerself ta master, and she sees ya again, it'll go poorly. Fer both of us." Flynn let out a low sigh and shook his head.
"I know ya won't change, but she said if ya find yerself hungry after changin, find em." This was rough, it really was. And despite his usual PMA, he was having an incredibly hard time finding any positive out of this other than 'hey we're still alive.' "I shouldn' have done that. I pissed em off. But I couldn' fight em either, they were Ganon's own monsters, one of my kin n a way. N I promised Ganon loyalty if he saved me."
In all honesty, he should get her out of here as soon as possible and disconnect his self. This could go poorly, not all monsters would be as rational. They were all irrational in a sense, why should he chase off someone that's allied with him? Someone that doesn't attack him or stab him in the back despite being one of Ganon's own. "I don' know how I didn' smell the difference in em approaching, the Lizalfos must have fuckin masked it." He obviously looked deflated as he stared at the ground, frowning. While he was silent, he didn't react to anything outside of warning signs of an approach, and he waited for her to get ready.

She let out a heavy sigh and watched the breath cloud. It was getting much later into the late afternoon and the sun would be setting soon. She…no they needed to move. She gathered up the few supplies she had and repacked quickly. She flung her cloak into the pack too needing the cold to remind her to move. She didn’t need the comfort of warmth, not right now. She stooped to grab her spear not saying anything to him as she was lost in thought.
She could tell he was going to be a huge point of conflict within herself. Why would Hylia have granted her prayer to only have him relatively untouchable. She mulled this over in her mind, she didn’t have a reason to fight him. She had nothing telling her she had to. For the first time in her life she was faced with a choice that had real stakes to them beyond simple comforts. The mountain spirits where testing her, but now how she had imagined. Damned if she was going to let what she had thought she lost go again.
Resolutely she grabbed his hand, she knew of a safe place tucked back into the mountains out of reach from the many monsters in the area. She had camped there last night, yes it would be back tracking from her projected path out of Lanayru but…this was her choice to make. Her joy’s and pains where her own to embrace and if this was a mistake she would thrive on the moments of joy long after she reaped the consequences.
She had nothing to lose right now and everything to gain. Looking back at him, her face stern in its resolve, it wasn’t sternness for him though. Just at the gravity of the situation she found herself.
“Follow me, I know a safe place”

As Flynn was pulled towards a cave, he stayed silent as he searched for some sort of silver lining. Maybe... maybe Ganon wouldn't be displeased with him? Lelana was an ally of Flynn's. She was helping him so far, and even now, she was leading him to a safe place, at least, he trusted her to be doing as such. It could be an elaborate trap, but he doubted it. Nine years on the run could do that to you. "Lelana?" He asked, looking to get her attention for just a second as he stepped up to where it was obvious she had camped previously.
"'M sorry bout this whole mess. I really am. I jus' don' want ya thinkin me bein loyal to Ganon is entirely a bad thing." Ganon's world wasn't what everyone thought it would be, at least from what he's picked up on rumors. Well, he guesses to those that worship Hylia, it would be. "I jus' don' like the thought of ya thinkin poorly of me. You're the first person that hasn' attacked er ran away from me on sight." He was obviously on edge about the whole situation.
This wasn't a conflict in his life he'd thought would pop up. He just figured he'd serve ganon, and work towards using the Zora ruler as a worthy sacrifice to please him. He didn't think he'd ever run across a face that didn't want him dead that wasn't a fellow monster.

She had led him back into the promenade and behind the large waterfall, there was a large enough cave that the back was dry from the spray of the falls but was shallow enough that she was sure there would be no monsters attacking her in the night. It had been her refuge for the last week and it allowed her to rest in complete stillness.
The falls masked her scent and predators would not find them. If they did track them her scent would be masked by Flynn’s and from what she knew of it that would be problematic to any other monster that wasn’t allied with Ganon’s. Speaking of which, she had to address the matter at hand. Her silence was making him unsettled, and the way he said her name…it broke her resolve.
She sat wearily by the remnants of an old fire in a nest of dried plants and shrubs from the previous occupant. It had kept her warm on some of the coldest nights. “I can’t pretend that I am not saddened by your current circumstance of which you have found yourself in. However, I cannot fault you for making the choice you did, it is also not my place to hold that choice against you.” Her shoulders sagged heavily and she removed the pack from herself.
“I know the last nine years has been hell for you…I tried, and poorly at that, to help you. I prayed for guidance and I acted on the answers I received. Those long years I learned, I trained and I looked for you whenever there was any news. But it was sparse and I was always too late. It wasn’t until the news spread that you had finally been killed that I found myself giving up on the hope I had at one point.” She clenched her fists staring at the floor of the cave as her eyes stung bitter tears.
“After all this time I still held onto a small shred of hope I would see you again…whether it was by Ganon’s answer or Hylia’s it is all mingled together at this point by our own prayers. The waters are muddled and its unknown what it holds.” She was silent for a moment and then looked up at him.
“I will never think poorly of you, I never have and I never will.”

Flynn sat quietly and listened to her words, his eyes lighting up just a bit before falling down the ground again. He smiled just a bit at the last of her words and he looked back to her. "Well, like I've been hoping, Ole' lord Ganon hopefully won' be pissed with me wantin to spare an ally n' a friend like you." He didn't finish with what he wanted to, but she was pretty damned awesome. A little warm light in this harsh ass winter that ... probably won't be happy with his evil plots, but at the very least, isn't unhappy with his decisions.
"Yer handsdown the best Zora out there Lelana, Thank ya." He finished quietly, laying backwards on the stones some, feeling the cold on his back but not as bothered by it as much as he would be by his lack of energy he's going to feel in the morning. He needed to get away from the promenade, his catches were becoming too scarce for him and the other Zora would likely notice. And no matter how hard he tried, he could not force his self to eat plants on his own. He did for Lelana, but that's just cause his doofus ass didn't want to hurt her feelings.
He kept a light pressure on his abs to supress a growl before sitting back up. "Floors a touch cold." He laughed out, crossing his legs to continue watching the piebald Zora.

She looked at the nest around her she had fleshed out in her previous stays, she could see that it was just at the cusp of twilight outside and a chill ran over her as well. They didn’t have the supplies or the time to build a fire, it would probably have been a bad idea anyway. She pulled the blanket from earlier out of her pack and her cloak as well, they were going to need to stay warm one way or another.
“It’s big enough for two…if you don’t mind sharing” she said brightly trying to hide her awkwardness at the suggestion “it’s going to be another freezing night and we don’t have the supplies for a fire.” Her stomach twisted violently

What was she doing? He watched as she looked raound and would up pulling out her cloak and blanket. Oh, shit, right, Flynn didn't have enough fire wood cut down in time to make a second fire. She had a point, an incredibly valid point, but Flynn also had his reasons to be apprehensive. How would a sleeping, hungry monster fare next to someone else. Much less that monster having been neglected any real contact for the longest time.
Outside of catching his prey or asserting his dominance over other monsters, he hadn't had much. "Oh.. you... have a point." Her stomach wasn't the only one twisting, and his made him want to just go to sleep in the frigid waters to escape from the fears and awkwardness he knew was going to come from this. But he wouldn't abandon her to be left up here, cold, in a damp cave. Standing up, he walked over to her and looked around the cave. Usually, he slept by the fire, but he didn't want to be left out in the open, exposed to the breeze comin in from the entrance.
Looking around, he walked over to a rock large enough to shield them from any breeze, and he stood next to that rock, sniffing the air to double check for any sort of dangers. No more fucking Skulltulas. He doesn't think he has what it takes to deal with anymore of that right now. Especially with his hunger setting in. If he got angry enough, he was liable to lash out and push the monsters back, on his side or not. He was aggressive and instinctive when need be, and he hadn't been as bad about it until Ganon blessed him.
And he wasn't the only monster of Ganon's that attacked their own kind when irritated. Lynel, Wolfos and many others, when angry, would lash out in a primal rage to chase off the irritant, or kill it if it didn't leave. His own instinctive rage was a primal one, so, there's that goin for him.
