NOTHING BESIDE REMAINS — Maye was not the first plant-based beast that Aurum had met, but that didn't make her powers any less impressive. Especially when they were looked at in conjunction to the fact that she was undead. The angel knew very well just how draining occupying an undead form could be, his mind wandering back to when he had been a hellhound. While he had eventually grown used to it, the stench of death and the phantom pains that had echoed throughout him had been difficult to deal with, even on good days. However, considering how handily the lioness was gripping onto the foliage around her, it was clear she had grown used to this life. Perhaps she didn't have the same issues that he had once had, occupying a half rotted form that somehow held itself together.
The angel came padding up beside Elsweyr, shooting a silent glance in the cheetah's direction. He had certainly noticed her changes recently, but had been avoiding bringing them up. Whenever she zoned out, he figured she was just thinking over all that had happened. He didn't want to make things worse, or somehow upset her, so he just kept his mouth shut, waiting to see if she would come to him. For now, he let his focus drift over to Maye, intently listening to what she had to say. Like most who came onto their lands, she was looking to join, and that certainly wasn't an issue. So, with his thing tail flicking from side to side in a faux wave, Aurum rumbled, "If you're looking for a home, then you couldn't find a better place than Tanglewood. You'll certainly be welcomed here, if that's what you'd like. My name is Aurum... what's yours?" He couldn't help but be enchanted by the lioness's story, curious about her powerful elementals and undead form. However, it was probably best to just start off with names. — OF THE MAN WHO WAS BORN AND DIED A KING.
