Date: September 1st, After dinner
The day was over, FINALLY. Goodbye stupid other creatures, goodbye stupid conflicts and goodbye stupid twin. Let's just say that things hadn't gone well at all. After the explosive first class, Eyildr had kept on fighting with her sister, not agreeing to her point of view. No matter how convincing Elevine was trying to be and no matter the proofs she had, the oldest twin couldn't come to an agreement with her; it couldn't be right, she had to be wrong. So as soon as she finished her diner, the nymph rushed to her room, locking the door behind her. She wanted to be alone and think, her sister would only be allowed to come in if ever she was forgiven for destroying the entire beliefs the black haired girl had cherished ever since the age of 6.
Eyildr was currently sitting on her bed with her legs folded on her chest, so she could hold them. Shifting uncomfortably every few seconds, she kept grumbling her thoughts in despair. Of course, her reaction had been immature earlier, during the class, but.. it was a reasonable thing to do when you lost control over the situation and; thereby, your emotions? She was scared, that was all. Scared of what she would become if she couldn't be the one her mother always wanted her to be. The girl sighed loudly and sent a look at the door. She might have been a bit excessive this time.. She had barricaded the door by pushing an entire wooden furniture in front of it. Why was she always so immature whenever she had an argument. Normally, Eyildr would have distracted herself by trying to control the water running in the pipes, the rain outside, or anything of the kind really. But today.? Nothing. She knew that she would never be able to control the most wonderful element that existed and it broke her heart.
Pain shot in the torso of the nymph, it was as if she had to accept the death of someone; she wasn't able to. What was she going to do now? She had been completely ridiculed in front of the entire group of new students that attended the class and now Pharos would probably hate her as well. She had been so despicable this morning; it wasn't in her usual behavior. She felt terrible about it now, she'd have to go see her teacher tomorrow and explain to him that she would never engage in such behavior again. The nymph hoped that it wouldn't go in her record or anything of the kind, she didn't want to be expelled from the school and separated from her twin.
"AUGH!" she growled in frustration, "I'm such a moron!!!!!" With that, the girl flopped violently on the side, trying to suppress her frustration. However, she wasn't really calm and she had misjudged the distances, ending up in a burst of pain in the head of the young nymph. Eyildr winced in pain and tried to pass a hand on her forehead, as if she could take the pain away.
Strangely enough, it took no time for the loud and constant ringing to come to an end. Last time she had hit her head so hard, the nymph had heart the ringing for more or less 10 seconds aka, an eternity. Careful, she sat up and took deep breaths; this entire anger thing was completely stupid, she should simply go see Elevine and tell her that she was sorry for her immature behaviour and that, although it would take some time to get used to, she would try her best to adapt herself to the actual powers she had. She would never be an ocean being, that was all. She would develop her potential in the field she was actually granted at birth, that's it that's all. Yes. That's all.
Motivated to make things better, Eyildr ran outside of the room. Reaching the hallway, she sent a mental location, trying to find the place where her sister would be at that time. Outside, near the woods. Alright! The nymph took a turn, heading towards the staircase and bumped into someone else. The child yelped in surprise as she flopped to the ground. "I'm sorry," she mumbled, rubbing her forehead but surprisingly painless.

The first day here was finally coming to an end, the sun slowly setting down as the students headed back to their dorms or to the cafeteria and campus to hang out. The curfew wasn't there just quite yet so a whole lot of people just tried to enjoy their newfound liberty in the school. Her host had been so exhausted, he had quite literally fainted as soon as he had been curled up underneath the blankets of his bed, leaving the demon alone and bored for the night. As she floated up in his room, giving him a glance every now and the sleeping form of the boy by her side, going back through everything that had happened today. Well the first class had been....interesting, to say the least. The creatures here were diversified and weird, and while she had seen and lived it all, she had still been a bit surprised at a few of their abilities. They were pretty rare after alll. The two twins had seemed the most unstable and easy to pester to her. She took a mental note of that as she pondered some more about the school- it was a great place to have managed to get in. Thanks to Portal and his sweet, stupid face they had gotten accepted and her along the way. She had promised to keep herself in line, and she would! After all her deal with Portal still held up and she had to protect him, which did mean not causing mayhem in the building. She frowned. Really, she nearly regretted having said such things- if every order day would just be following the brat to class, it would be horribly, terribly, impossibly boring. And if there was one thing she loathed, it was boredom.
Sending a last look to the boy and deciding she would be able to feel if he was in danger tonight, which she strongly doubted- after all she wasn't his goddamn babysitter - she would be able to come back in the snap of her fingers. So she floated a few inches above the ground, slipping past and outside the door. The hallway seemed empty at this hour, but even if it wasn't she doubted anyone would be able to see her. The only ones she'd look out for would be the teachers and stronger beings but even then up to now it hadn't been much of a problem. Portal was pretty entertaining on his own but it was kind of fun to get to see new stuff other than the human one- oh humans were fascinating in their stupidity and how easily you could trick them, but after a few hundred years, it felt a bit repetitive. Something fresh was much appreciated, that much she could affirm without doubt. She looked at her nails, a human habit she had found herself picking out out of sheer curiosity, and since it was pretty fun she just kept on doing it. The Mindscape was great for going around without getting bothered by anyone or anything, but it sure as hell was boring when she was under so much restrictions. She couldn't scare or play with anyone, could only mostly be the demon of service for her fleshbag. Ugh. What a chore.
Before she could even get much further in her inner thoughts, she felt someone bumped into her and stopped right on her tracks. Being taller and well- obviously stronger, she hadn't really budged from the impact, mostly surprised that she hadn't quite felt it coming. Then again, it was surprising that anyone at all would be in the Mindscape... Looking down at the small being that had just ran right into her, she saw it was only a little girl- and not just any little girl. The strikes in her hair and the clear color of her eyes, plus her petite appearance was a dead giveaway. She was one of the twin, one of the two Nymphs she had had seen earlier today during the class. Well that answer the who question, but it still gave her no clue as to why she would be quite there exactly- on this plane of existence. Well from the way she was walking with her feet against the ground and not above it proved that she was either very weak or quite inexperienced in the matter. To stop the kid from getting suspicious, she stopped floating all together, her feet pressed against the ground as it was for the nymph.
"What are you doing here?" Her voice sounded weird, almost double yet not quite so- slithered pass her lips in that weird manner in something that sounded not quite human, but not quite unfamiliar. Perfect to make most people she'd whisper at freak out from what she had gotten. She was standing in front of the little girl, in her most "usual" human form. A long mane of red locks pressed up against her back and framing her face, bright strikingly blue eyes, rather tall and with a mature look to herself. She was wearing something weirdly enough magician themed- sleeveless vest matched with a light blue undershirt, the cuffs neatly folded, all of that with some nice black pants and shoes. If it was only of her she wouldn't dress up everyday, but Portal had complained more than once about how she couldn't go around naked, which was really such a weak human idea it was both fascinating and sickening. A bit like magicians. The reason she loved them was for how pitiful there were, thinking they had anything to real magic in their hands. How pathetic and very...human.

"What are you doing here?" said a strange double cored voice. It wasn't the type of things you usually heard when you bumped into someone. Most of the time, you would expect a normal male or female voice to tell you to watch out, or that they were sorry for not looking at where they were going either. But this time, it was nothing like that. At the realization of the weirdness of the reaction to the impact Eyildr looked up in surprise. She couldn't synthesize how the voice that had spoken to her could ever be heard. Who was that person? An older student or a teacher maybe, but it truly didn't seem to be the case. The surprised expression turned into a frown as the nymph realized that she couldn't place the face back on someone she had met before. Carefully, the child lifted her body back on her legs, always keeping her eyes on the other being. She had to be careful if she didn't want the events to unfold against her.
It was a strange person, one could say. Around the female, Eyildr could see strong waves of colors floating. Waves of pure energy perhaps? All in all, it wasn't really the type of things that she was expecting to see at one point in her lifetime, and it freaked out the child. The person standing in front of her was quite powerful, there was no other explanation. If this was truly the energy supplies of the girl, that meant that she was capable of great magic. Through the years, the members of the village's community had told a few tales about creatures of a misty aspect that possessed immense capabilities. They were always described as different from the normal magical beings. Unlike them, they mostly existed in the Mindscape and only became visible to those without the vision over the veil if so they wished. Perhaps this girl was part of this extremely small community and had decided to attend school, or attack maybe (who knew), and that was why she was walking down the hallways right this instant. If it really was the case and she was in the establishment for evil purposes, then showing up in the physical dimension perhaps wasn't the smartest of ideas.
Eyildr sighed in relief, it probably simply was a staff member. One who gave her an awful lot of time to reply, if she had time to think all of that, but oh well. Since she seemed to be granted an additional 2-3 seconds, the nymph decided to observe the girl's appearance. Energy waves were something, but not all she could see after all. The stranger was wearing common clothes, for people of this generation, unless it simply was the vision of today she had thanks to the tv shows she had seen now and again. It was hard to know when you had no real contact with people aside from a nymph and a small human community who never bought new clothes. Apparently teens on the continent changed clothes with every season. How strange was that? The nymph mentally replaced herself on the right track and tried to detail the clothes. The girl was wearing a weird sleeveless vest that seemed to be proper to the serious women in tv series. Whenever they worked in offices, they had those uncomfortable pieces of clothes that completely restricted them. How did the sailors sometimes called it? Hm... yes! Modern corsets. They weren't meant to change your shape, but you had to stay so straight and strict with them that it was as if. Under that vest, the stranger was wearing another layer. A simply shirt of a basic light blue shade; something that the villagers would normally wear. To complete the clothes, the girl had added a pair of black pants. Overall, quite classy really. The nymph took a fraction of a second think of her own clothes right now. Perhaps there was improvement to be made..
At last, the child finished her inspection and returned to how she was addressed earlier. What had the stranger said? Right! She had asked about her whereabouts. "Well.." she started, trying to remember what she was up to. Right! Her sister, "I was heading outside to find my twin. I have to talk to her and the matter is quite urgent." That said, she tried to pass by the stranger only to be blocked by an invisible wall; she couldn't go further. The nymph sent a glance towards the other girl, was she the one restraining her? "Let me go, I really have to see her!" she said, pushing as hard as she could on the invisible wall. No success, she was still stuck. The child started growling but headed towards the other direction. She had took a right turn, when she was running for the staircase, but there was another path if you turned left. It'd take longer to reach the staircase, but she wouldn't be stuck. The nymph had run just about the same distance from the right corner to the invisible wall, when she hit a new one. "I don't understand.. what are you doing?" she asked, turning around to look at the girl with a mix of anger and fear drawn on her face. "Let me go see her!"

Her question was met with the blank stare of the child, looking at her in an odd mix of confusion and curiosity, as if it was the first time she had seen anyone like them. She was glancing from up to down and left to right as if trying to assess her, unsure as to how to react. She couldn't blame her, she was after all a being of pure energy with nearly no weaknesses, or so she liked to say. She wasn't replying, seemingly trying to process a few things before giving her an answer and so making her wait. It didn't matter much, time meant nothing to her as she was old as it was. She had been around for so long that it was all very fuzzy to her, seconds turning into minutes, minutes to hour, hours to day and days to weeks, weeks to years. As much as she lived to these beings' pace, her conception of time was entirely different and on a whole other level, so waiting a few more seconds wouldn't be the end of the world. Still, she decided to take that moment to do the same as the girl and examine her too.
Long black hair adorned of white strikes- no, rather light blue- felt down to her lower back in waves quite alike to the one she so desperatly desired to control. Her skin as pale as it could get was constrasting deeply with her big blue eyes, and she found some irony in how she nearly looked to have the eyes of the nymph she wished to be. She was of a petite built, weak and frail, breakable in the snap of her fingers with her small height and thin body. All in all, a feisty young storm nymph with no experience and unexplored potential only waiting to burst out. Had she been older and more mature, she would have been interesting enough for her to write in the back of her mind in the list of students in this place, but she was young and inexperienced to a rather painful point. She had raw potential inside of her, but underdevelopped talent was useless if not trained well and it clearly hasn't been. As for their clothes they seemed rather normal for a nymph, only deviating from the norm in the way her dress was tied up in better her legs. One side seemed shorter thanks to it, and it probably allowed her for better movement. The low sleeves starting by her shoulders revealed her collarbone and skin still nearly as white as the fabric itself. The top of the outfit seemed to bulk, baggy where it met the skirt part of the piece of clothing, but it wasn't yet enough to hide her frail, weak frame neither how short she was. She was still only a child, a baby even, with only a few years of life experience to back up her basic knowledge of the world and of her own powers. What a shame. Storm nymphes were usually rather uncontrollable and hot tempered as their element, useless to her, uncontrolled power was not something she seeked. Though the young girl exploding and wrecking mayhem through the school.... Perhaps it could be good entertainment even if for a little bit.
"Well...I was heading outside to find my twin. I have to talk to her and the matter is quite urgent." She claimed before trying to pass by her, seemingly in a hurry but rather than going up the staircase, she bumped into an invisible wall. Adie wanted to laugh or at least smile at the look of pure confusion painted onto the child's traits but she retained herself, not wanting to break her cover quite yet. The girl glanced at her, confused yet accusating in her looks and it was quite the funny sight. "Let me go, I really have to see her!" She threatened her, the rage growing in her like a tsunami while the demon stayed still as ever, only to then try and push the invisible boundaries of her own spiritual limits. Getting frustated, she stopped and took a few steps back, looking to her left and heading up there to take a longer path toward the stars, only to bounce into the invisible wall once more. "I don't understand.. what are you doing? Let me go see her!" She finally snapped, looking back up at her as if she was ready to defend or attack depending on the situation, fear and anger mixing onto her features and man was it hilarious. But she didn't laugh nor smirk or even mock her, as much as she wanted to, keeping up her facade for the febble mind of the child.
Instead, she raised an eyebrow at the small limits of the invisible bubble, either the kid was weaker than she thought or it was her first time or one of her first times in the Mindscape. It was most probably the latter, which meant her body was still in her bedroom nearby. She stared at the girl, taking less time than her to answer her question. "I'm not doing anything kiddo." She spoke up, voice troubling as it has been the first time. She glanced around to the doors in the hallway, each one of them a bedroom and one containing the source of the nymph's astral projection. Without saying much more, she walked pass the child calmly and up to the door she had came out of moments earlier, pressing her hand against the material- well fakely so, as she had no other essence than in the Mindspace realm, making it impossible for her to interact truly with anything in the physical world. She could feel an aura coming from inside, same but a bit stronger than the projection of the young nymph. She turned around on her heels to face the child and stare down at her, blue eyes meeting blue ones, yet hers seemed a bit more unnatural- unnerving even. Way too blue, way too bright, way too everything. She stared down at her from her height, which she could do with ease seeing the difference in size between them. "Do you know where you are? I mean, not your physical form that's obviously knocked out cold in your bedroom. I mean do you know where you really are?" A smile plastered itself on her lips - not a grin nor a smirk, but a smile - and yet it was just as intimidating as the others would have been if only from how confident and strangely delighted it was. Actually, you looked closely enough right, you could feel how her whole being felt unnatural, felt...out of this place. Like this wasn't what it was truly supposed to look like.
"Because I sure as hell do, Whirlwind."

"I'm not doing anything kiddo." Eyildr froze, pushing on the invisible wall some more, to make sure that it was there. If the other girl wasn't doing anything, than what was? Something was keeping her there and if it affected everyone in the building, that was really dangerous! What was going on and who was keeping them caged like that? The young nymph observed the other girl, realizing only now how calm she truly was. The stranger simply observed her push on the invisible wall with no worries, or concerns or anything of the kind, she simply stayed there as if nothing really mattered. Perhaps she was a second year of something and that was the sort of initiation of the newbies that occurred every year. The point was to freak them out a little and round them up so they found a solution to the problem by themselves and get to the next morning with pride and that type of stuff? Maybe.. but then, why was her sister outside and why was a second year there? This made no sense then, it was a silly idea.
After passing a handful of miliseconds making that plan up, Eyildr realized that the other blue eyed girl was starting to process the situation as well. She had glanced at the hallway from which the nymph had appeared and even started to walk towards her room. The child followed with curiosity, wondering where all of that was coming from. Perhaps she had accidentally killed herself, when she hit her head, and right now a grim reaper was guiding her towards her body to explain to her that she had died and it was time to go. Please don't let it not be that, she thought anxiously. I don't want to abandon Elevine on a stupid argument. But the more she thought of it, the more it made sense. The other girl seemed to be in a high level of control over the entire situation, she had seen the invisible walls and done nothing of it, plus she had a really really strange voice that could only be attributed to someone from the other side. Well.. unless people in the physical world really would have two voices at once. Which would be really strange, by the way. The stranger got to the level of the nymph's room and placed her hand on the door. Eyildr frowned at the gesture, wondering if it simply was a myth that energies could go through doors. The young girl approached the wooden room separation and only now did it struck her; she hadn't opened the door at all, when she had run off. Worst of all, there were furniture blocking the said door!
Oh no, she thought, stepping back. The child's body was pierced by shivers related to fright. She looked up at the other girl and awaited the verdict with apprehension and concern. She didn't want to die just yet. The stranger stopped focusing on the door and returned her attention on Eyildr, who by now was pretty much a mess of uncontrollable shaking and trembles. The nymph tried to keep a calm attitude, but it was quite hard. "Do you know where you are? I mean, not your physical form that's obviously knocked out cold in your bedroom. I mean do you know where you really are?" The black haired girl bit her lower lip and looked down. Of course she was starting to guess where she was, but she didn't want to say it out loud; it'd make everything official and that, she couldn't stand. Staring down at her, the other girl had plastered a smile on her lips and seemed to be delighted at the reaction of the child. She enjoyed the incomprehension and fright of the nymph, she loved seeing how troubled she had made the child. Eyildr took a deep breath and clenched her fists, she had to stop showing her fear. "Because I sure as hell do, Whirlwind." She looked up in surprise, not expecting to be granted an answer like that. The child stared at the other one in the eyes for a while, trying to prove her point; trying to prove that she wasn't afraid of her. "No, I don't know yet. I have my guesses, but I'll try to figure it out."
With that, Eyildr walked to the door of her room and paused a step away from it. She took yet again a deep breath and stepped through. The door was cold and strange to walk through; it was like air, but denser. At last, the nymph reached the other side of the separation between her room and the hallway and she brushed off a shake. This wasn't a really pleasant thing to do at all. The black haired girl slowly scanned her room, looking for any sign of other energies or being, but there was nothing. With apprehension, she lowered her eyes to look at her bed and saw herself laying down, in a logical position that would follow hitting your head. It probably wasn't the comfiest of all, but if she was really dead, there was no soreness to worry about, thankfully. Walking slowly, as if judging each step, she walked towards the bed and shortened the distance between herself and the corpse. "What a silly death," she whispered to herself. She had always hoped that if ever it was her time to go, she wouldn't have the type of death that people would be ashamed to retell. Oh well.. what was done was done.
At last, Eyildr reached a less than a meter distance, from the corpse. She observed her body with sad eyes, seeing the paleness of her skin that would soon turn unnatural, the small trail of blood that had run from her forehead, the slow and repetitive motion of her stomach, as she breathed, the blu---- wait a second. The nymph rushed to her body and observed her stomach some more. She was breathing! She wasn't dead at all. That changed everything. She sighed in relief at the consideration that she perhaps could still be saved and stood up on her legs again, turning around to face the other girl. This time, her eyes showed assurance and pride, she wasn't as lost anymore. "I have no idea of where I am, but I know for sure that I am not dead and if you were here to claim my soul, your plan just completely flopped in your face, Phthalo."

After she had spoken, the child stared at her with wide eyes and clenched fists, the blue of her irises trying to reflect the confidence of the demon in hope that it would fool her into believing the poor act of fake courage she was trying to pull off as she had been trembling and shaking in fear a few mere seconds ago. "No, I don't know yet. I have my guesses, but I'll try to figure it out." Either this kid was truly an idiot or perhaps just really slow - was she so young that she didn't know what the Mindscape was? It boggled her mind, as the kid was a nymph and so didn't have the pathetic but somewhat valid excuse that a human would have of having never been in contact with such a place, or even just any kind of education about it. This one had none. However, she did act on her words as she turned toward the door, hesitant for a moment before stepping through the wood plate. For a split second, she wondered what that must have felt like for someone who wasn't part of the Mindscape but it quickly skipped her mind as she honestly didn't care much. It's not like way back in the past she hadn't had asked questions to whoever had a deal with her at that time, but she had stopped doing so a long while ago. She had simply realised it wasn't that important nor useful of an information, and had stopped giving it any thoughts all together.
She followed the smaller being, phasing through the door just as she had but not feeling anything unlike the nymph. If anything she felt her fake form slightly alter for a moment but it was so quick that it was barely noticeable, the tingly, smokey feeling only slightly entertaining if anything. As soon as she lays her eyes on the room, the body spread over the bed, placed in such a way the impact it had been through was clear confirmed her previous thoughts, even though she knew herself to be right already. Blood rolled onto the pale forehead, dripping down her cheeks and staining the sheets in a rather rag doll like display, one she nearly found funny in her own way. Physical beings truly were so weak in their mortality, it never ceased to surprise her pleasantly in unexpected ways. She was quickly snapped out of her observations as the girl had seemed to have notice her own form too, walking up to it slowly as if she was approaching a ghost. Well, if it truly was her first time it would make sense for her to be confused about seeing herself so upclose for the first time, an 'out of body' experience as they said.
"What a silly death." She frowned. What? Death? Was the girl so ignorant she had no idea at all of where she currently was? Maybe she thought they were in the Deadscape if she was as naive as to think herself dead. It was nearly laughable- did she not know the rules for the realms? She expected the students here to know at least the basic first three, even just know of them by their names or such but apparently this one truly had no idea at all of what was going on. The nymph sighed out of relief, which grabbed her attention again, and got up to face her with a new look in the pools of her eyes. They were now filled with assurance and pride as if she had just undone her masterplan and put her in the tight spot - how feeble people's minds could be were they not trained well, able to switch emotions around so easily.
"I have no idea of where I am, but I know for sure that I am not dead and if you were here to claim my soul, your plan just completly flopped in your face, Phthalo." Phthalo? Cute. A faint smile crept up her face as she simply let her imaginary weight onto her right leg, leaning on it as she crossed her arms and raised one hand up in the air as if to illustrate better her words and confident, nearly mocking attitude. "Your soul? I have no use for your soul child, nor do I even have a single glimpse of interest in it." Really? She thought a simple storm nymph soul would matter that much to her? She was weak and young, her power underdevelopped and that wasn't even talking about her mental abilities. She pointed to the body with her once raised hand, finger out and nearly accusing as if trying to crush the small being underneath guilt. "Besides, to be so weak as to get knocked out by just hitting your head is already pretty embarassing for you don't you think?" Taking a more relaxed pose, she looked down at her again with these bright eyes of her, making the obvious difference in height, strengh and confidence even more obvious.
"The deadscape is way past your capacities kiddo, it's already a mirable you made it out here in one piece?" She was lying of course, if anything the Deadscape was possiblyl more accessible to the nymph than the Mindscape, but she apparently had no idea how things worked so why not take advantage of that? She had seen the kid blow up earlier, seen how easy it was to mold her emotions, for the shame, the fear, the anger and the sadness to wash over her all at once, and it was just too hilarious to pass by. Ramiel was fun to toy with and she would never get tired of playing back and forth with him, but some new meat was never something she'd spit on, especially if it looked like such a fun one. Of course, she knew she couldn't truly harm or hurt the child- while she certainly hadn't planned to act like a good little demon, she didn't want to get herself in too much trouble, not quite yet. She could however, taunt her and make her snap. She certainly had made no such promises as to not annoy others had she? Her smile, mocking and clear, superior in every way was back on her features as she said in the most condescending tone she possessed, "Are you so dumb you truly don't know where you are?"

Eyildr observed the other girl as her expression turned into a smirk, clearly the nymph was missing important details of the current matter. She closed her eyes for a half second and breathed in, she had to remain calm and show that she still had some control over the situation. She might have been wrong in her last statement, but it didn't mean that she would let the other the advantage and control over the conversation. When she opened her eyes, the child noticed that her opponent had adopted another position that displayed confidence and knowledge. Calmly, Eyildr changed her own way to stand and waited for the other to talk, she would not let her win so easily. "Your soul? I have no use for your soul child, nor do I even have a single glimpse of interest in it." A slight growl escaped the lips of the child at the dryness and understatement that the sentence brought. Phthalo started pointing the girl in front of her as if she wanted to dismiss all the elements of her appearance. The child closed her hands into fists and started pressing her nails in her palms, she knew that her usual reaction would be to pounce, but it was not an option this time. The storm had to remain quiet and distant, she would have more control that way. "Besides, to be so weak as to get knocked out by just hitting your head is already pretty embarassing for you don't you think?" Eyildr bit her tongue this time, she started pressing on her tongue so hard that it would have normally bled, but this time there was no blood and no pain. She had completely forgotten about the nature of the environment in here; there was nothing physical in this place. "I might have knocked myself out stupidly, but at least that means that I can hit quite hard," she started, trying to support her worth in any way possible.
"The deadscape is way past your capacities kiddo, it's already a miracle you made it out here in one piece." Eyildr frowned, she had no idea as to what the other was talking about right now. She had never heard anything about different scapes. From the shows on tv, she had learnt that there was a sort of veil that divided the worlds, at least the ones of life and death. If the name was relevant, she hadn't reached the deadscape, which meant that she was either stuck on the veil or there were other 'scapes' on the way before reaching the world of the dead. Good. She had processed information smartly for once. "Are you so dumb you truly don't know where you are?" The nymph raised one of her eyebrows at the comment, presenting utter disgust at the comment. Phthalo perceived herself as so superior to her that it was becoming really annoying. "It's not a question of being dumb or not, it's a question of what you learn, idiot." The girl was starting to feel anger build up to dangerous levels now. Her veins were pumping hard, sending waves of burning sensations in her body.
Unnoticed by Eyildr, the room was starting to become windy. She was close enough to her body to have a certain control over her element. The nymph walked closer to her body, always keeping a clear stare at the other girl, trying to show no fear, but only confidence tainted with anger. "So here's my move. I now know that I'm not dead, my body is right here and simply knocked out. Considering that my body isn't moving at the moment, no one has taken over, if that's even possible at the moment. So if I happened to simply decide to get back in my body, I would manage." The nymph made a final step back, she now was barely 2-3 inches away from her body. "I just have to do this." Oh how she hoped she was right. The child bit her lower lip and made contact with her body, wishing to regain control and leave whatever scape of non-physicalness she was in. If she was wrong yet again, she would completely loose credibility towards the other girl.
An intense throbbing started resounding in the head of the child. The nymph slowly reached up to her forehead and ended up caressing a damp liquid. Hesitant, she took a look at her fingers and noticed blood. Partly dried blood, but still fresh. A smile grew on Eyildr's lips, she was back in her body! She jumped in excitement, "Take that Phthalo!" A sudden wave of dizziness hit the child and forced her to sit back down on her bed. She couldn't see the other girl anymore, that was great! Spiny, the child laid down on her bed and started to look at the ceiling with a proud smirk. "No matter where I ended up, whatever scape that was, coming back to my body and wishing to be in it granted me the capacity to. So if it ever happens again, Phthalo won't be able to get the best of me! I'll just have to practice." The nymph had spoken outloud because chances were that the other girl was still in the room, listening. After a while she would leave and return to her own business, hopefully. The child smirked with pride and yawned, not bad for a first timer.
