Wondering within the Deep. (closed) [Violent, gore & Adult]

[Myth]

Here within the twisted trunks of the tall trees, hunched over by there very leaves. A Canopy so thick that Sunlight can hardy touch the cold wet earth the roots fed from. Darkness thrives within the black misty earth, far away from the bright, beauty of the sunkissed meadows and the Grate mystical trees of the fay folk and Rulers of the forest.

Large Heavy paws squelched through the gloomy pathways of the Deep forest realm, Its owner was hard to see, a ghostly looking creature traveled toward the swamp. golden glow pupils pieced threw the blackness of its eyes, looking out for the sign of a weary traveler who took the wrong turn. Grimyth Enjoyed the dark paths he traveled, the smell of the damp misty air and the fresh water from the spring that created the large lake of water.

Then out of the silence, was a rush of movement a few yards from where the Doom dog Stood. The rustle of leaves, brambles and the quicken pace of hooves upon mud.

"Lunch time" Grimyth grumbled lightly, a large toothy grin like the crescent moon at night. Dark Red saliva dripping from his jowls. Grimyth began to Sprint along side the sound of movement, hoping to gain by getting ahead of the pray. He was still translucent and used his ghostly ability to weave through the trees. He caught sight of the pray about 3 meters away through the thick thorny brambles.

With the Last few heavy stomps the Hellhound's neck and eyes burst into hot orange flame, Jumping out ahead of the Large heavy hoofed Stag.
The Stag Cried out in surprise skidding in the slippery soil, it had no choice but to try and fight the six foot predator.
Grimyth reared up, twisting his body to avoid the sharp spikes of the antlers, Yet when his attempt to jump over the animal, he felt the stinging slice of his flesh being torn from his underbelly. He was Flung up and over the Stag, but the effort was a loss as Grimyths vice like jaws clamped round the Deers Rump, Razor sharp teeth and claws sunk in ripping flesh and braking through the pelvic bone.

The final Thud followed by a loud scream cried out before the deathly silence struck, the whispers of hot breath hit the cold air as the Hound panted away. He broke the silence with a long grone, as he finally attempted to lift his body up off the soil, and look at the damage done to his own body.

"Arrg!...Dame the creator for giving thees creatures bloody antlers..." He grumbled loudly, after releasing his clawed grip from the stags throat. He lifted his right arm following the three long bloody scrapes along the sides of his ribcage. With his free paw a thick black substance started to emit from the very pawpads. Hot tar like substance was dripped upon the open flesh.
Grim winced from the burning sensation of the pain, yet once done he finally picked up his meal and limped back to the lake.

(OOC: All Are welcome in the Swamp, creatures of the darkness (evil) are welcomed even more so. No idea why the stag was running in the 1st place, but grimyths always been a "finders keepers" kinda dog, lol)

[kirchhoff42]

Ceriaos slowly moved thru the swamps and heard a cry. "go see what happened" the shadow yelled in Ceriaos head. with a sign he starts running towards the sound. after a little he saw a dog. when he came closer he suddenly hides behind a tree. the shadow asked "why did you do that? i wanna see what that is." "no you don't i have fought that kind of creature before. its a doom dog. and don't try anything smart. some say that they can see the soul of it's target" the shadow slowly appeared behind Ceriaos "that was not smart said. now I am curious" and slowly turned and looked out behind the tree. "lets go say hi" "why? it will kill us" "you forget that we too are creatures of the dark now". Ceriaos thought a little then shrug and stepped out behind the three. he waved at the doom dog...

[Myth]

The hellhoud's ears twitched from the sound of movement around him, stopping halfway through devouring the stag to seek out the cause. He then spotted a shadowy figure come out from behind a tree, It took him by surprise to see that the being was in fact waving to him. Grimyth had to look behind him in case he waving to some one else.

The surrounding area was just about visible to the ordinary eye, the green glow from the fungi illuminating parts of the darkness of the deep woodland. Only the lake Grimiyth had chosen to rest beside had a three meter gap within canopy, letting in faint rays of sunlight touch the water.

He Growled slightly in warning then the sent of the creature came to him, something he was in fact quite familiar with within the underworld.
"What lowly creature of the darkness, dears to disturb me from my meal?!" The Dogs Deep voice boomed towards the deathly pale figure walking towards him.

[kirchhoff42]

when Ceriaos heard the voice he stopped and lowered his hand. "i am Ceriaos the walking corpse." he said slowly moving his hand towards the dagger in his shoulder. "hey fellow dark creature." the shadow said "how is the stag?" Ceriaos started walking again.
around 5 meters from the doom dog Ceriaos asked "i have given you my name now what is yours?" Ceriaos eyes glowed a little because of the stench of death. he tried to pull the dagger but the shadow grabbed his hand. "let him speak."

[Myth]

Grimyth's lips curled up in a silent snarl, warning the corps if he should step any closer. He then Lifted himself up, standing on all fores to defend his kill. Then Lit up as the corpse peached for the dagger in his solder.

"IF you think that tiny toothpick will protect you, think again." He Growled, before relishing where the second voice had come from. Grimyth glared at Ceriaos, keeping one large paw firmly on his food. Then His malevolent Cheshire smile grew on his face once his lit eyes gave him vision to the shadow world.

"Thouse who fear me call me many names under the moon, but you may call me Grimyth" He Replyed moving forward slightly so he was between the Corps and his food.

"As for you O' Demonic One, The stag is divine and sweet. Yet i'm one to share it to just anyone, What brings you here to my territory?" Grim Added as he sat on the half eaten stag, licking his teeth clean from the blood and his own drooling saliva.

for the past few days there had been dreadful tremors in the earth, growing more and more each time. Grimyth had gotten use to them by now, but still found them irritating nonetheless.

Yet this Was difrent, This time it was as if sky itself had struck the earth, a Huge explosion louder then thunder swept through the forest from the direction of mountains.

"WHAT THE?!" Grimyth Barked as his head shot up and turned in the direction of the sounds. "What was That!?" He asked.

[kirchhoff42]

Ceriaos was going to answer and was caught off-guard by the explosion and slipped on the wet ground, fell and knocked his head on a rock. “great now he is unconscious. Just give me a second” the shadow said and faded into Ceriaos. Few seconds later he got up but there were something different about him.
He looked at Grimyth and smiled. His eyes were red and there ran a thick green fluid from them. His teeth were no longer like a humans but sharp. “much better and what the heck did just happen” he looked up at the mountain. “shall we find out?” then he looked down at the stag “don't worry we don't want to take your kill. We don't need food”

[Myth]

"Sure, Bloody Tremors have been scaring of the food recently, maybe its a sign to explore the land beyond the forest, toward the mountain...if it is just a mountain that is." He Replied still looking in the direction of the blast. He tilted his head and looked back at Ceriaos now looking even more deathly then before.
Grimyth then scoffed at the thought of not needing to eat food. "I'd say that's lucky, For me my hunger is my own curse, at least now that I've eaten you wont get to see my irritable side for quite some time." Grimyth smiled evily.

He Then Took hold of the rest of the stag in his jaws and like a alligator the rest was gone within two bites. nothing by the constant flow of blood thickened drool. "Well. Hope you can keep up, Bonebag?! You can tell me a bit more about yourself along the way. Don't get to see eather of you two creatures roaming the Earthworld. Then again i'v not been summoned to the underworld myself for quite sometime, no idea what there up to thees days." He Barked as he began the journey through the deep. Following the long pathways lit by more luminous fungi.

[kirchhoff42]

Ceriaos smiled and followed "i haven't heard from the underworld since this happened" he makes a gesture to his body "and before you ask. This happened then some FREAKS tried to summon me and there made a mistake and I was stuck in this body with Ceriaos” his movements were easy and yet forced like he fought something who wanted to control. ”i have traveled around with him for a while in his mind or as a shadow behind him. It's good to actually do something.” Ceriaos looked at Grimyth “what happened to you? I know I little about your kind and what happened”

[Myth]

Grimyth strode along the path, listing to His new Acquaintance's story happily.
yet when Ceriaos asked for his story in return, the doom dog paused in his stride with an stern, unamused expression resting in his face. He'd not though of his past for a long while, as usually the longer he lives the more of his past memory is lost to the shadows, yet there was one thing stayed hazy in his head.

He Tryed to find words to place, he pushed himself to walk on, then took a sidewards glance at Ceriaos.
"In a way..i was summoned to this world, murdered by men by the powers of the dark arts, only to be reborn and chained up for the rest of my days..." He told bitterly, thinking of the Sorceress of the guild.

"I was turned into this form to guard the Entrance of the sorceress guild, to frighten or devour any of there enemies. I was starved so i was too week to fight back, Yet When The leader of the Guild died his two brothers fought for power...The youngest cast a spell on my bindings so when his borther came to beat me i would get my revenge" Gimyth smiled at the last sentence then turned his head with a toothy grin. "I took my revenge all right..." She Chuckled Evilly "...I was the one who Destroyed that entire Place...leaving only the one who released me to rule over the bloody mess" He continued, His chuckle turning into psychotic laughter. As Images of that day flashed though his mind.

[kirchhoff42]

Ceriaos was surprised. His body moved but it wasn't him who moved it. The shadow looked at Grimyth weird smile. And after a little the shadow smiled back “i know that feeling. After my summoning the most of the summoners died. The rest died by them self. So I didn't get any revenge.” he jumped into into tree but slipped on the branch and fell but landed perfect. “whoa close one” he looked at grimyth “my body is kinda tied can I get a ride?”

[Myth]

(OOC: sorry for late reply, went on hols for 2 weeks.)

Grimyth had to ponder a reply for a moment, having never be asked to be ridden before. He looked to the corps, judging his size and weight. Then shrugged when finally deciding the answer.

"No ones ever asked me before...but Sure, guess i'd wouldn't hurt...would probably alto quicker too. Although if my neck should ignite, i'd stay clear of the fire my friend...for the living its like Ice cold water and fairly harmless, but spiritual flame for the dead is not so pleasant." He barked back, Crouching down slightly so Cariaos could climb on a little easier onto the 6 foot high Monster Dog.

Once again The Earth Shook once more, But this time it was no rumble but a huge, Cataclysm explosion. The Defining sound of tearing, ripping and earth crumbling Echoes through the woods, followed by a huge brush of energy of force. All Grim could think of doing was to dig his huge claws into the very ground he stood on, as the rush of air, dust and leaves that were ripped off there trees.

Grimyth could barley move, His Fire lit and burning ablaze, flames being swept by the current in the wind. He slowly turned his head, curios to what had become of his new acquaintances. "CARIAOS?!" He Roard back, ears waiting for a responce.

After a few minutes of calling the Waves of force began to subside, The sudden wave of air settling down leaving only the smell of dust that hung lightly in the air. "Wow..." He began, his breath heavy in his bony chest. "What a Rush..., Someone..or something has just created chaos upon this land.." He spoke, a cruel toothy grin grew. He could not see what caused the explosion, but saw the destruction around it, and judging by the small amount there was alto more to come the further they walked. He began to chuckle again, his laugh like that of a chain smoker as the dust in the air coated in inside of his lungs slightly.

He gazed through the trees and into the horizon, yet what was making him smile was the fact that many miles away most of the trees were no longer upright. To his poisoning hell hound mind this was something he enjoyed seeing, it was as if the very underworld had left a small gift for the world of the living. Grimyth slowly took a few steps forward, staring in awe.



(OOC: Since this little RP is working its way towards the major events happening within the main story of the forum, would you like to (maybe after a few more post here) continue this to "Meali's Tree" where the big huge explosion and flying debris is happening? )

[kirchhoff42]

ooc: no problem. and i agree that we shall continue to mealis tree.

bic: Ceriaos was prepared for the second explosion and stood his ground. he slowly climbed up on Grimyths back. "don’t worry the fire don’t have that big effect on me i am in a human shell.

ooc: sorry the short post i dont really have that much spare time.

[Myth]

OOC: Understandable.

Grimyth Looked back as he watched Ceriaos climb aboard the doom dogs back. Unhinging his claws front he ground he proceeded to click his knuckles and rotate his shoulders, warming himself up. The Fire in his eyes and down his neck had turned back to a blue flame. "Well, its your exorcism friend..." He shrugged knowing most of the dead hated the burning pain that was caused by his flame, yet so far in this kingdom things haven't been exactly what he was use too.

"Best Hold on Bonebags!" Grim spoke, then leapt forward into a gallop. "I't might take a good hour or so before we reach the centre of the destruction...but at least we can tell when were getting close!" He added through heavy panting breaths. Heavy paws stomping the ground at a fast pace. To those few small everyday creatures of the woods it would have been as similar rumbaing as the earth tremors was to Grimyth and Ceriaos.

It Felt strange to have the small feeling that something was on your back, the corpse hardly weighed a thing, yet the faint tapping from what was probably a bumpy ride was the only indication he was on there at all. It was a little irritating at first, but nothing he couldn't become use to in time. It definably beat waiting for these slow two legged creatures to catch up.

"I recommend you hold on very tight, coz if im to get there quicker imma gonna go through this reached trees...meaning...i'll be taking you into the shadow relm with me....but...if you let go.." He chuckled at this point in the thought of the outcome. "...that body of yours will either hit the tree face first...or get stuck halfway through it...wich is not a good thing whichever way you think of it." The hound explained weaving in and out of the trees at 60 mph.

"READY?!" He Called out.

[kirchhoff42]

ooc: are we post jumping now?

ic: Ceriaos felt the burn deep into his existence and manege to avoid crying in pain. though the pain was great he held tighter. but in the jump he lost his grib and fell off...

[Myth]

(Can do, it would take a while to get from the swampy forest ground to the centre of the forest so i thought I'd post a few before we made our exit.)

"What th..?!" Grimyth spoke, looking back after feeling as if he lost somthing.

Realising what, Grimyth rolled his eyes after seeing the bluer of the living corps in the corner of his eye. He did not stop but simply sighed, turned round sharply and came at Ceriaos at top speed. "Come 'ere Bonebags!!!" He Barked madly before opening is jaws wide, most likely giving off the wrong type of singles to the fallen rider.

Within the last few strides Grimyth made an attempt to scoop up Ceriaos and carry him that way instead. Giving the corps one last chance to get to the centre of the forest faster.

If his planed worked he would turn back and continue his previous plan of going ghost, invisible to most and able to walk through solid objects.

(OOC: Up to you if Ceriaos jumps out of the way or is taken by grim and carried "Nicely as a hellhound can" within Grim's jaws...After your reply we can Exit and enter "Meali's Tree" if you wish )

[kirchhoff42]

(ooc: sounds good. lets make our exit.)
Ceriaos landed face fist into the ground. The shadow reappeared behind Ceriaos looking down at him and scratchinghis head. "i think his leg is broken" it said as Ceriaos tried to stand but fell again. "and i think your flames was to much for hi." it looked up with a insane grin i think you need to carry him.

[Myth]

Grimyth chuckled as he herd the shadows words in his ear. "Got it covered!" Was his last words before scooping up the corps into his jaws. "..'op 'ou enjoi tho wide" he added through muffled words.

Then as planed His physical form faded as he walked into the path of the shadow realm, As if walking into a mad kind of negative form of the world they came from, all was dark yet everything had a small glow surrounding it, Here you could see almost every living creature pass, as it body temperature could be visibly seen in bright reds, yellows and blues.
Grimyth Galloped through The trees and even the huge rocks of dirt that had been cast off by the explosion.



(OOC: Grimyth and Ceriaos Exit here to, "Meali's Tree")
