Not candy mountain...

[Onides Une]

"I used to look normal..." she shrugged. "I call myself a Tiefling... Which makes me feel better. But fact is this place was practically once ruled by the christian god and I looked like the demons cast out and damned forever too remain in hel or be some bad omen or a monster to scare children." he opened the can of worms with that question. And she gave her explanation of it but her true answer.

"Honestly I wouldn't mind it so much if it didnt matter so much." she looked at him. "No I don't hate the way I look but it's been quite the curse."

[Lucifer]

He nodded in understanding.

"God's children can be cruel. They are imperfect children."

He'd let out a small sigh through his nose before slowly rising to his feet.

"So I believe you were in need of aid, were you not?"

[Onides Une]

"Um... Yes." he was right ti bring her back on task. "Right... I am looking for a daughter of Aries. She is Alive and finding her will be one part of my quest that I can complete."

[Lucifer]

"And what is it you want to know? I'm sorry if it seems obvious, but my power works in a very specific way. One of its many catches, along with its cost."

He'd say offhandedly.

"I need you to link hands with me and reach inside yourself like you are praying and ask for the knowledge that you want. Only then can I help you."

[Onides Une]

She couldnt help but look at him strangely. But he mentioned her praying to ask and she'd shift in her seat and thought about a way to go about this.

She linked hands with him and took a deep breath. "I need to find the living daughter of Aries, I pray to know where she is and I pray that you'll help me do just that..." she knew of old prayers while she wasnt someone who prayed much she knew of things. She read books and him being ab archangel she wondered of she was doing this right. "... Amen?"

[Lucifer]

The lights in the room flickered and his shadow seemed to grow to envelop the room and everything in it. His hands would be hot to the touch, almost painfully so, but his grip was tight and unbreakable for the young woman. His eyes burst with light like the dawn as his voice rang out like a chorus of angels fighting a hoard of monsters. Each word was beautiful and terrible to behold.

"The daughter of Aries is surrounded by the never-ending storm. It's weight bearing down upon the strong to crush them under heal. None who live may venture to the place of the damned that she resides. The monolith of Cousta Bojer."

The light would dim and the room would return to normal. Well, almost normal. Except that holding the Angel's hand would not be the demonic looking girl he had carried in, but rather a normal looking Redheaded woman.

Oni has lost access to the "Ultra Oni Power Up!" Qi for the next five threads. She is able to use any secondary Qi she has unlocked in events and when the five threads have ended her normal appearance will return once more.

[Onides Une]

Something didn't feel right she tilted her head from either side it was something like she'd feel well rested and good enought to have felt light headed. She it was her hands that she saw and ahe jerked them from Apollyon's her breath ceased in he throat

She felt herself and stood trying. To see if this was real. If it were Mr. Leon she'd not be able to tell otherwise but as she tried to form words breathy fragments of them only came out in shock... Just shock.

"The monolith of Cousta Bojer..." honestly it sounded like an "oh my god" with the tone she used however it was literally the only thing that made sense right now. She couldnt stop gliding her fingers and her eyes over her freckled skin. She darted her gaze between this Angel and herself. "... The cost was my Qi mutation?"

It didnt seemed like a bad price to pay. It was like having one less thing to worry about as she would be traveling. But that might also be unfortunate. She'd not be at all sure. She also remembered Barker mentioning the place... If it held any significance she might just need to find out.

[Lucifer]

If he was surprised by the changes that happened to the young woman he didn't show it. She quickly deduced that the price was her Qi mutation, her appearance reverting back to that it had been before her powers had manifested.

"Does that displease you?"

[Onides Une]

She shook her head hard. "Oh No-no not in the least displeased... Just disbelief." so much so. "I... Oh my goodness." she couldnt help but smile and a weak giggle forced itself from her. "I do not care if the spell only lasts a few hours or forever..." she'd be quick to slip her arms around him and hug him with her thin arms. "I thank you for this second chance and be like some cheesy Cinderella."

[Lucifer]

He would wrap his arms around her in return, his embrace strong and warm. The spark of divinity humming within him.

"Good, I would hate to see you displeased."

[Onides Une]

She'd let go of him and spot her things. She caught sight of herself in the mirror before picking the bag and poncho. She had forgotten what her original eye color was, and she was still smiling with those emeralds shining boldly.

She looked to Apollyon. An uneasy feeling fell before her. She didn't want to leave... She felt the need to hurry but also the though asking "why the rush, it might be rude..."

"Apollyon... I'll be back for sure. I doubt you realize it but I feel like I cant say thanks enough. From one outcast to another, lets not be strangers." She'd hoped he would agree.

She'd lift her bag... Wholly crap it was heavy and she wondered how she carried this thing all the way here.

[Lucifer]

"Please. Call me Lucifer."

He'd say before reaching into a pocket to pull out a small crystal. It shone with a black light inside, swirling and writing within its confines.

"Should you have need of it, shatter this crystal and invoke my name. I trust you to know when the time is right."

Either way he'd put a hand on her shoulder, giving her a comforting squeeze before withdrawing his hand.

Oni gains Lucifer's Crystal!

Oni's soul has a Mark of the Beast. Please make a notation of this in the Qi section of your bio

[Onides Une]

She blinked twice. Lucifer... Her pale lips pressed in a thin line as he gave her this crystal. It was too late to judge him from the stories she heard. Immediately... She simply took the crystal and a deep breath.

"Alright... Lucifer it is." she looked at him, really tried to see him in a new light and she couldnt. She didn't know what to do with this very giving Angel who'd already earned her trust. What would she do with the one known as the Devil? Honestly all he'd done and all she'd heard she couldnt change her mind. She had already made it up probably. He'd helped her and she didnt have to climb a mountain to deal with more tempered Gods.

"Then wish me luck, and hopefully I will see you sooner than you see me once more." saying she'd hope it didnt have to come down to use it but she was grateful for the stone.

Pulling over her head her poncho and shouldering her bag she'd head on the next train out.

[Lucifer]

He'd smile warmly and watch her depart. His smile vanishing as she left his gaze and he'd make his way back into the church. The holy aura around him dimming into something much darker as the wings shifted to be a deep purple in shade. His expression cold and bored as he made his way to the deepest parts of the church where he had a chess board set up. It appeared there was a game in progress, and if one was to set them side by side. It would look identical to the board that was set up in The Earth Dragon's home, being tended to by Sean Barker.

He'd simply move a pawn forward.
