💫

Between the curtain, the shroud of dreaming and waking, I can feel the awareness around me, yet my mind remains trapped. I feel my hand grasp onto something, though I don't know what it is, gritting my teeth together...

Hand in hand with Nimue and Uncle Kev, we walk down the steps, an eerie purplish light surrounding the succubus and incubus who guide me. There's only a few feet distance I can see with this light that radiates from them, walking to the beginning pathway to a home, light coming from within and warding off the darkness. As they stand where they are, releasing my hands, I turn to look up at the two of them.

Nodding my head and breathing out slowly, I take steps away from my safety, walking up to the door. After knocking the door, it's a few seconds before it opens, and a large impish creature presents itself with a bowl. It tilts its head to the side, observing my appearance and I...he.

Offering me the bowl, I look inside and see many different colored fluorescent rocks, their light glow holding with a pulsating light. In awe, I barely notice when he glances over my shoulder and at first, I think he's checking with Uncle Kev and Nimue, but then I hear footsteps running up near me and the air moving from above me.

I gasp and take a few steps backward, smaller versions of a few demons descending upon the bowl and each taking a fluorescent rock. I'm nearly knocked to the ground as they rush by me to move to the next home, my heart skipping a beat when I look back and an incubus boy a few years older than I stand in front of me. His eyes look me up and down, though I hear Nimue state, "Dorothea is the daughter of the earthen plane's King and Queen."

The young incubus shows his respect, "Queen Vossen," bowing his head a moment.

"She's not human," Uncle Kev clarifies for the young incubus.

He tilts his head to the side and says, "I've never seen one..."

They're not allowed to cross the veil, drawing their energy from one another within this plane of existence.

There's a darkness that crawls up from the base of my spine, creeping to the base of my skull...

...I don't like it, a draw pulling me forward that I refuse, and I tell him, "Stop that."

His eyes widen and he looks completely embarrassed, shaking his head, "I-I'm sorry...I didn't mean to. It just...sorry." His wings extend from his back and he pushes off the ground without another word, flying out of my sight quicker than I can follow his movements.

"Dorothea?" Nimue furrows her brows and more so asks Uncle Kev, "She knew what that young incubus was doing...? How?"

Uncle Kev shrugs his shoulders, stating, "I don't know, but I do know that she's capable of understanding when others are influencing her or attempting to with magic as well."

Nimue admires, "An extraordinary young girl."

"Kid, are you going to take one?" The imp's voice is much gruffer than I've experienced before.

"I..." I'm more taken aback by what just happened.

Nimue urges me and says, "Go on ahead, it's safe."

Nodding my head, I walk back up to the imp, reaching for one of the rocks and withdrawing a vibrant fluorescent purple one. I tell him, "Thank you."

It's his turn to be taken aback, not accustom to the kindness of others. It takes him a moment, but a few seconds later, he replies, "You're welcome," before edging back inside and closing the door.
