Roleplay posts: 246
Age: Ageless and eternal.
Physical Description: At an average 5'7", Naenia is of an equally average figure, albeit with noticeable curves. Her eyes are a brilliant blue, and her hair, which is various shades of blonde, falls to her lower back. Her features are pleasing, many would likely even call her beautiful, but her attractiveness is tempered by her usually solemn expression. Given she is an angelic being, Naenia possesses a pair of shining white-feathered wings, large enough to easily lift her frame aloft and fly swiftly for long distances.
-------------------------
Clothes and Equipment: Most frequently, Naenia can be seen wearing her angelic armor, and indeed, none have seen her outside of it; in truth, she possesses the will to transform her armor (and scabbard and blade) into any number of appearances, including intricate hooded robes and simple dresses (or in the case of her weapon, a holy book to better channel her holy magics). Aside from this, she also carries a sword (and its companion scabbard) which is used as a focus and channel for her holy magics.

On the lower slopes of the Norkari Mountains lies a lush valley, heavily populated with trees and filled near to bursting with animals. A river runs through it, passing under a long-abandoned temple. White spires and domes thrust upward past the treetops, the pristine alabaster columns and promenades protected from the encroaching greenery by powerful magics still not depleted, and warded against attack or intrusion by those same ancient magics. Its hallways and rooms remain comfortably lit and warmed year round, filled with furniture and books warded against the ravages of time. It is in this place - not easily accessible by foot - that the archangel Naenia the Watcher makes her home.

With @nephilim held securely against her body, Naenia flew speedily over the forest that surrounded the abandoned temple. Then she swooped in to land lightly in the courtyard, tucking her wings against her back again and cradling the boy against her chest as she began to enter the temple proper. There had to be a way for her to contact Spero. Perhaps.. praying to him? That worked for mortals, would it work for her, as well? Keeping him held close, she began to murmur quietly, almost whispering, her tone filled with urgency.
"Great Seraphim, Lord Spero, I humbly beg that you turn your attentions upon me. I am Naenia the Watcher, and I have a boy with me in great need. He is of angelic birth, his parents are missing, and he has a badly injured wing. I cannot heal him. Please, I need your help." Moving inside the temple's empty halls, she wound her way through the lower levels, passing warded doors, more hallways, and beautiful gardens, until she came across a library. It was filled with books, but more importantly, there were tables and soft cushions everywhere. She set Aechon down on one of these and sat beside him, gently petting his hair once more. "There, here we are. Hopefully my friend will be here to help you, soon."

The trip in flight had been nerve wracking and more so with the pain from his bruises and the broken wing. But his death drip to the front of Naenia's clothing never faltered, even as they landed and he felt the gentle bounce of her step when she walked. The peaceful solitude settled into him with each room and garden they passed, and she would feel some of his fear trembling ease as a result.
He didn't want to let go when she attempted to lay him out on a table but with enough coaxing he would eventually relinquish his hold and lie down. But if she would let him, he would keep a small hand intertwined with her own - too afraid to let go.
Those water-filled eyes remained up at her, pleading silently for relief and still filled with fear. "N-Nae... i-it hurts... ... I-I want Mother... my w-wing..." He grimaces and lets out a whimper, body drawing up just a bit as pain throbbed through that broken appendage. "M-Make it better, p-please, Nae..."

Not long after Naenia's pray was made a pillar of light struck down in the courtyard. It was not the form of Spero who stepped out of it though. The figure that came out in a stumble was a man. The man was a bit taller than Spero, broader at the shoulder, with hair as white as snow. He shared the Sephrim's rugged features though his were not in humanly handsome. Once he collected himself the man stood tall. Though he may not be Spero he possessed a similar aura. One of confidence and peace, though this man's aura was tinted by a hardness that Spero did not possess.
Jayce had been traveling in the far north when Spero had appeared before him. The paladin had not seen the Seraphim in nearly a century, but the angel was unmistakable. The lord of hope had asked him for a favor and he had agreed without hesitation. There was a child that needed healing and protection in these ruins. There was already an angel present, but Spero had been evasive on why she was insufficient. It did not take the paladin long to locate the blood trail and he soon came to the library door. Raising his fist he knocks firmly.
"Guardian Naenia? Are you within? I am Paladin Istilix of the faith, I have been sent by Lord Spero to aid you."

Of course Naenia let him hold her hand. In fact, she sat on the table beside him, gently stroking his hair with the hand not held in his. "I know, sweetling. I trust my friend will arrive soon and he will help you. Then we w--" The sudden surge of holy power from a nearby courtyard cut her off, mostly because she could tell immediately that it wasn't Spero. Her body tensed, and she pulled her hand away from Aechon's head, beginning to gather magic in her palm. Just in case. There was a chance it was someone coming for him, and she would not let this child be harmed. When there was a knock on the door, however, she let the magic fade. Spero had sent someone rather than come himself..? Odd. Still, she trusted whoever Spero trusted.
"We are here. Come in, Paladin." She resumed petting Aechon, eyeing the newcomer thoughtfully when he entered. "Thank you for coming so swiftly. This is Aechon. I found him in the mountains."

"You are welcome, though Spero is to thank for my timely arrival." Jayce strides into the room not even stopping to properly great Naenia. His eyes affix on Aechon and the child's condition brings a grim look to his face. The grimness lasts only for a moment though. He quickly replaces it with a gentle smile. The smile is a bit forced, but there is a genuine warmth in the paladins eyes. He crouches down next to the child and says kindly. "Hey there little soldier. I know you feel pretty rough right now, but I promise I am going to make it all better. Before I do though I need you to do me a favor. I need you to be calm and I need you to be brave. Can you do that while I work?" Jayce would wait for the child to nod in the affirmative. He was not a skilled healer and the child's injuries were quite server. Fortunately you could make up for a lack of skill with sufficient power. Placing a hand over the child's eyes and another on his stomach, Jayce summons the Seraphim's seal. There is a pulse of holy magic as it manifest's, it would call to the souls of the two angelic beings. It speaks of the celestial realm of the absolute love the light provided. Their worries and ills would be soothed at least for a time. As Jayce works he would talk to the child of small things. "What is your name? What games do you like to play? Where your favorite places to play?" He would steer the child's thoughts to happy places. Avoiding topics that might upset him, such as where his parents maybe. For now he needed the child calm and unmoving. The healing would take perhaps an hour and when he is done Jayce would slump with exhaustion. The Seraphim's seal was exceptionally draining.

The boy cast his stare up to the man, and he felt weaker - he called him a soldier... even with his face stained with tears and sniffling like a baby. He had to be brave and strong in front of him... his father would want that. To be a strong warrior, like this man. He managed a choking cough before he could speak. "I... I-I'll try... sir..."
He tried to remain as still as he could manage, still very much in pain until he felt the surge of holy magic. Then he began to feel his aches and his fears and his worries ebb away. His eyes eased shut as the hand remained hovering over them, and one could easily see his body begin to relax. When the man continued the call of the holy aura he took a breath and let it out slowly - surprisingly with hardly any pain.
"I'm... Aechon. I like drawing... a lot. I like books and scrolls... Father's library has a bunch. I like it there. It smells nice, and he would read with me. I... I like playing in the trees when Mother brought me to visit. They were so alive... like magic. They have their own heartbeat... you know?"
Aechon continued rambling on until he slipped from consciousness, falling into a heavy slumber as every bit of tension eased away. His little chest would rise and fall slowly with deep breaths drawn and slowly released. At least he was no longer awake to feel any pain that might remain after the mending.

That Spero hadn't come himself was still odd to Naenia. Why had he sent this man? A concern that ebbed away as the holy magic appeared. It also took with it the sorrow that plagued her, well-hidden, and the heartache, both caused by Samael's apparent abandonment.. and the utter surprise she felt at a human, even if he was a Paladin, being able to use the Seraphim's seal. How was this possible? She would ask later. For now, she continued to gently thread her fingers through Aechon's hair as the magic did its work, and she listened to the boy answer Jayce's questions with a small smile. He was being so brave. When he fell asleep, and the magic came to an end, her smile faded, and she fixed Jayce with a questioning look.
"Thank you very much for your assistance, Paladin Istilix. But I feel I must ask, why did Lord Spero send you? Are you to help me find the boy's parents? And how is it that you can use the Seraphim's Seal? I thought that was something only the Seraphim could use." Her voice was quiet, so as not to awaken the slumbering boy, and she gently placed both of his hands on his chest. Then her arms slid underneath his little body, lifting him from the table and carefully placing him on a nearby pile of cushions, being sure not to jostle him enough to awaken him. Her full attention was fixed on Jayce, awaiting answers to her questions.

Jayce gets to his feet with only a small groan of protest, the groan was due to exhaustion rather than age. It had been forty years since his youth was returned to him. Despite how long it had been it was still odd to move without aches and pains. He grabs a chair with some nice cushioning and sits down in it. Much better. Finally he turns his face to Naenia and answers her questions.
"If you mean why did he send me instead of coming himself I do not know. All he told me was that there was a child who needed healing and protection. He did tell me you were already doing so, he was unclear as to why you were insufficient. I am willing to help you find the boys parents. In regards to the Seraphim's seal..."
Jayce adjust himself in his seat a bit more comfortably.
"Common misconception. Any who have taken their eternal virtue can learn the seal. It is simply very rare for a mortal to travel that far down the path of virtue. So far as I am aware only three living have done so. Though I will say it is not as powerful in mortal hands. Now do you have provisions? Healing takes a lot out of people both I and the child will need food."

Staying near Aechon, she stood, too anxious to sit, and listened to Jayce's answer. So he didn't know why Spero had sent him instead of coming himself, but he had apparently been sent to protect the boy? That made her frown slightly. "Perhaps he is concerned that I will not be sufficient protection alone. I have no experience with children, after all. Not to assume you have any more experience than I, of course, but it would be the logical decision." She clasped her hands behind her and began to pace, moving silently aside from the rustle of her wings and clothing. That pacing halted when he mentioned food, and she blinked.
"Ah. Yes. Of course. Excuse me while I retrieve it." Leaving the room, she moved through the temple to the kitchen, where she gathered some of the food there. Bread, cheese, water, dried meat, some fruit, a couple of flagons full of mint-flavored water and tea. This was all dumped unceremoniously into a sack and carted back into the library, which was then set on the table near Jayce. Only then did Naenia sit, choosing to perch on top of the table and fold her legs before her rather than claim a cushion. "Well, thank you for answering my questions, and for healing him. Once the boy awakens, I will question him as to the identities of his parents. Perhaps then we will be able to locate them and return him."
She paused, and her expression darkened suddenly. It was clear she didn't much like what she had to say next. "However, given his state when I found him.. I have an unfortunate suspicion that his parents cannot be found. I do not know what I will do if they are deceased or otherwise unable to care for him. I suppose I will do so myself.. although I do not know how." Her gaze turned to Aechon, and softened noticeably. Poor child. Imagine being orphaned, then thrust into the care of a stranger.

Jayce scoops up a loaf of bread and splits it with a knife from his belt. He piles cheese and meat within and consumes the meal hungrily. Between large mouthfuls of bread he takes long droughts of water. He had hidden it reasonably well, but the healing had left him starved. He does not immediately address her statements. It was rude to speak with your mouth full and there were no time constraints on when he had to answer. When he finally had his fill he takes another long drink. He addresses her first statement with a slight frown on his face.
"I do have experience with children. I doubt he does and if you do not then I suppose that explains why he sent me. If the worst comes to pass I will assist you as best I can. It will be ten years before he can tend himself. A short amount of time in some respects and not something I mind doing since this is was a request from Lord Spero."

So he had experience with children. Somehow, that didn't surprise her. He'd been so good with Aechon while the boy was awake. Naenia gave him an appraising look, but said nothing on the subject as she resumed pacing. The thought of caring for a child was an odd one, but she was nothing if not dutiful.. her one Virtue was in Diligence, after all. That thought brought a wry smirk to her lips, and she nodded absently as her pacing finally halted. Then she sank down onto the cushions near Aechon, gently stroking the boy's hair as he slept.
"Then so be it. If his parents cannot be found, he will remain with me.. and you may also reside here with us, if that is what you choose to do." She looked over at Jayce, and inclined her head in a respectful nod, golden curls cascading around her face. When she raised her head, she gave him a small smile that softened her usually stern features in a lovely way. "I am more grateful than words can express for your assistance, Paladin."

The boy didn't stir a bit save for a slight shift into the cushions when he was moved. And he remained at rest through their conversation. When Naenia came to sit by him and stroke his hair he muttered something in his sleep and wiggled across the makeshift bed to bring himself closer to the bodily warmth that was hers, wings fluttering a bit and then settling around him like a warm blanket - the once broken limb now moving seemingly easily.

"You are welcome Naenia. I was happy to help and will be happy to continue to do so. It will be nice to have a firm purpose again and even if it is only for a time nice to care for a child again. I will tell you know though, do not fret over whether you can perform this task. No one has ever had a child and considered themselves ready. All that matters is that you are willing to care for him. The rest will sort itself out."
Jayce smiles at the angel. With the boy healed there is no forced levity in his smile. It is real and warm and patronly. Though his face is that of a young man his eyes are old, very, very old. If the guardian was paying attention she would have seen the pain in them when he spoke of children. Whoever or whatever this man is there was clearly more to him than meets the eye. Giving a little sigh the paladin sinks deeper into his chair and closes his eyes. Soon he is taking the deep even breaths of sleep.

Glancing down at Aechon as he moved closer, her smile widened, warming notably. Naenia placed the boy's head upon her lap with a few gentle movements, and settled in comfortably.. she got the feeling she was going to be there for a while. When Jayce spoke, she raised her gaze from the slumbering boy's face and looked up at him. The pain in his eyes wasn't missed, and she wondered at its source. This man had a story, and part of her was very curious as to what it was.. but she wouldn't press him. At least, not now. She would get to know him better first.
"I am willing. If Lord Spero believes I can do this, I will have faith that I am up to the task." She looked back down at Aechon, watching him sleep in silence.. only to glance back up at Jayce when she realized he had fallen asleep, too. With both of her companions lost to unconsciousness, she fell into silent contemplation, gazing thoughtfully at nothing while her mind whirled. The first step would be figuring out who the boy's parents were.. and what had happened to them. Then they would proceed from there.

Somewhere in the next couple of hours, the child would begin to murmur and worm about in his sleep. His eyes would ease open, and find someone over him that wasn't his mother. He went very still and very quiet, peering up at her with uncertainty. It took just a few moments before recollection finally settled in and he relaxed - it was Miss Naenia. Still a bit uncertain with his unfamiliar surroundings, he remained quiet as he watched the angel that was looming over him.

Age: Ageless and eternal.
Physical Description: At an average 5'7", Naenia is of an equally average figure, albeit with noticeable curves. Her eyes are a brilliant blue, and her hair, which is various shades of blonde, falls to her lower back. Her features are pleasing, many would likely even call her beautiful, but her attractiveness is tempered by her usually solemn expression. Given she is an angelic being, Naenia possesses a pair of shining white-feathered wings, large enough to easily lift her frame aloft and fly swiftly for long distances.
-------------------------
Clothes and Equipment: Most frequently, Naenia can be seen wearing her angelic armor, and indeed, none have seen her outside of it; in truth, she possesses the will to transform her armor (and scabbard and blade) into any number of appearances, including intricate hooded robes and simple dresses (or in the case of her weapon, a holy book to better channel her holy magics). Aside from this, she also carries a sword (and its companion scabbard) which is used as a focus and channel for her holy magics.

Naenia was so lost in thought that it took her several minutes to realize Aechon was awake. When she did, she blinked, and looked down at him. Then a warm, comforting smile spread across her face, and she spoke quietly, both to avoid alarming him and to keep from waking Jayce. "Hello, Aechon. Do you feel better, now? Are you hungry? I have some food for you."

Aechon nodded meekly at her questions, more so the one about food. He really was hungry, announced by a quiet rumbling in his stomach. He gingerly eased into sitting up, feeling just a little stiff but at least he wasn't hurting. And he looked from side to side, watching as he flexed his wings out with very little problem. The broken one felt a bit heavy but it was moving and no longer hurt. He was okay with that.
He managed to get up on unsteady legs and wobble towards the table set with food, following his nose as it were, until he saw the knight slumped in a chair and sleeping. His steps stopped as he stared at the man, and subconsciously the child stood up a little straighter, remembering how the man asked him to be brave and strong. "He... he helped me. He made everything better, right?" He would look to Miss Naenia for an answer, presumably a yes, and then tip toe over to the side of the chair. Without another word he would lean over and wrap his small arms around the man carefully, trying to give him a hug with head resting on his shoulder. Even his wings ruffled a bit and came around to help extend the gesture. "Thank you," he whispers, trying not to wake him.

A large hand pats Aechon on the back. Jayce does not open his eyes, but his deep voice rumbles out.
"You're welcome little soldier. Thank you for being brave. Now go get something to eat, a good soldier knows to keep his strength up."
The large hand drops away and Jayce's breathing resumes it's deep slow pace. Evidently he wasn't sleeping though, if one had to guess it would seem likely he was meditating. Even in his meditations he wore a smile, there are few things better than receiving thanks from those you help.

Helping Aechon to sit up, Naenia remained where she was, watching him start toward the food. His sudden pause made her wonder what he was going to say or do, and then he asked his question. She nodded once, speaking softly in response. "Yes. He used a very powerful holy magic to heal you." Her gaze followed the boy as he moved around the table to where Jayce was sleeping, and something inside her twisted as he hugged the sleeping paladin, thanking him for his assistance. She wasn't expecting Jayce to respond, thinking the man was still sleeping, but the entire tableau... They almost looked as though they could be father and son, with their similar hair colors. She had once wondered if she and Samael would ever have children.. if it was even possible for an angel and a demon to do so.. what those children would look like...
Shaking those thoughts aside when she realized they were showing on her face, forming her pretty features into a cold and bitter mask, she ceased her introspection and rose from her seat, removing the remainder of the food from the sack so that Aechon could eat at his will. She even carefully broke the larger pieces of bread and cheese into smaller pieces, to make it easier for him to eat. Then she settled onto her seat again, folding her legs to one side of her body and resting her hands in her lap while her wings rustled and folded behind her. "Once you have eaten, Aechon, I need to ask you some questions about your parents, so that I can try to find them. Is that alright?"
