every bait and switch was a work of art
"Your parents sound very wide indeed." Safrin muses, her lips twisting prettily into a smile. Lifting an eyebrow and nodding for Ellyra to continue on, the goddess listens as the young woman makes her ask. However as she falls to her knees, Safrin is there before her in a heartbeat with her palms against the woman's shoulders and her fingers gripping her warmly.
"Never kneel, daughter of the earth and stars." Her parents might have tended to the Grounds, but now Ellyra was asking to be raised to higher heights than those trod upon. "Rise then Ellyra, and become one with the Old Gods." So saying, she will feel a lightness in her feet that forces her to rise. As she does so, it will fill her bones like laughter, rising in the back of her throat like a joyful scream that etches itself on her very soul.
From the depths of her heart comes her first form—one of many. It is carved from cunning and strength, beauty and deadly danger wrapped into a package so perfect that even Safrin is smiling when the transformation is complete.
Open your eyes, Ellyra. And tell me how it feels.
Ellyra has been attuned! Her first shift is an African lion!
