Chapter 20 by Darth_Halford Darth_Halford

What's next?

You make a strange acquantaince

"Well, now that the trash has shown itself out" You hear behind you. The disembodied voice from before, but close, as if coming from an actual person, you turn around, to find someone actually behind you. They looked female, and quite tantalizing, but not like any being you saw back home. There were some traits that seemed close to elvish, some that reminded you demons, and a great deal that was, for lack of a better word, alien, to you. Whoever, whatever they were, it was naked, and admittedly quite attractive

She smiled at you, and despite her unusual appearance and unusual entrance, she seemed genuinely friendly.

"I'm sorry" You begin "I don't understand"

"Well, now that he's pushed you away, the two of us can finally talk. Girl talk, as it were."

Your eyes narrow in confusion "Do I know you? Have you been following me?"

She laughed gently "Forgive me for my bad manners. I have been having my eye on you, ever since Daricke took you on."

"The Dungeon Master you mean?"

She laughed "Oh, that man and his titles. I told him such things confine him, but you've seen how stubborn he is. At any rate, yes, the one you know as The Dungeon Master" there was a mocking tone in her words as her fingers rose in quotations.

"Sounds like the two of you have had a past than"

"Quite, yes. You could say I'm your Fairy Godmother, if you take my meaning."

You shake your head "No, sorry, I can't say that I do."

"I Enlightened him, just as he Enlightened you."

"You taught him to use magic?"

"That's a reductive version, but yes"

"So, you can bring me to a new...." your head moves around looking in **** hope as you struggle for the right word "A new home"

"Certainly, though I don't really need to. Anything he or I could do, you can do."

"But how? He didn't teach me that, or give me all of his powers"

Her smile was constant, as she shook her head "He didn't have to. It was yours all along."

"What do you mean?"

"Think of yourself as a candle..." She said as she raised her hand, with two candles appearing, one lit, and the other not. "You have everything you need to burn brightly in you already. If someone gives you that light, that spark..." She brings the flame from one candle to the other, and your eyes fill with a flash of blinding light "than you burn on your own, and there's nothing the first can do to stop you from burning as bright, or brighter."

"So you're saying I could always have been a...whatever you call yourselves?"

"Yes and no. The potential exists in you, and in any sentient being, but unleashing that potential needs someone who has already been Enlightened."

"Look," You say as your head starts to hurt "I'm really happy for the introduction miss, and the information, but can we start over, slowly? I mean, I still don't even know your name."

"Oh! Right, Forgive me again. My name is Dresca. Don't worry, I'll help fashion more comfortable environs..."

What form does 'comfortable' take?
