Amethyst Ashuria sits in her study, idly thumbing a vial of some sort of purple liquid, deep in thought as she stares at the book in front of her. It's some variety of old alchemy textbook opened to a chapter on psychoactive trinctures and other such things. She sits, maybe waiting for something or someone to need her or theother, or maybe just wanting something to break the monotony of whatever she's thinking about.
Rishi There's a knock on the door, before it opens a little and Rishi sticks her head in. Her hair swings behind her, sun kissed golden blond instead of it's usual dark color. "Are you being busy? I am having something most important to be telling you."
Amethyst Ashuria's ears perk as she turns to face Rishi. There's... an expression her face, though not a terribly readable one. But finally she gives a little malicious grin and tosses the vial towards her. "Been thinking about Amethyst, give her that would you? I think it might help. Try some yourself if you're curious."

She kicks her legs up onto her desk and asks, "What can I do for you, Ms Fleshweaver?"

Rishi Rishi comes inside, catching the bottle almost absently, before cracking it open and sniffing it, before recorking it. She tilts her head, considering, then says "Fleshweaver is being more of a ...title. I would be appreciating it if you would be calling me Rishi."
	 Rishi sits in the chair on the other side of the desk and... her expression is also hard to read, which is unusual. "I know you are not being fond of me. I am not knowing exactly why, but there are being ...plentiful reasons. So, I will not ask." She looks a bit hesitant. "I just wish you to know, this ...I suppose it is being the gift? I did it because I was thinking it was the right thing to do. If it is not changing your opinion of me, I would still have been doing it." 

	 she hesitates again "that said it is also being a bit of ...the creepy, people are telling me." she sighs. "...I can be eating the souls of the spirits and the Fae. But...I do not have to be immidiately doing the digesting of them. And....I was being there when Glorious died." 

	 "I could not be claiming all of it but....if you would be liking your broken Dream Souled confederate's soul back, I will be giving it to you."
Amethyst "Rishi." Ashuria nods. "Well, you did threaten me on the first day we met, and you somehow got my daughter who was a devote immaculate when she left to suddenly become lovers with not one but /two/ daughters of Luna. I have words about her choices of mate." More quietly she adds, "nevermind that there's three of you so far..."

"But she will not hear a single word from me about it."

And then she drops her casual demenor and looks much, much more serious, "You... what? I, I can't bring back the dead Rishi! But I guess I could try to untwist his soul and let it roam... I was hoping that he'd be free upon his death to reincarnate and eventually rejoin us. I wish you could've captured all of it or would've captured none of it."

She lets out a sigh, "But sure, give it here and I'll take a look."

Rishi "I am being most apologetic about the threats. Ammy..." she frowns "She did not speak of you much and I was thinking that her mother was being the full blooded Fae. You are knowing how it is being with them. Threats of violence to be making sure they are knowing not to be trying to eat you are the standard practice."
	 Rishi headtilts, "I am not ...actually being sure how she met Frosty, but .... they were being the first people in the long time who were accepting me as ...myself. I had ...closed myself off. I helped people, but ...stayed apart and moved frequently. They ...." she sighs, a distant happy look on her face "They gave me a place to be staying...friends..." she sighs again "I expect that I will likely be dying in their defense some day." 

	 Rishi shrinks in a little, but says "I am knowing that you cannot be returning the dead to life, but.... Well, it is seeming that some of our cohorts can be very ....thorough when they are destroying someone. I saved what could be saved. I was not being certain how the process worked, and I thought it was being best for you to be checking on it, before allowing his soul to be released."
Amethyst "Ah, well, that's a tiny bit more understandable." Ashuria says, "Given the nature of fae I don't blame you for wanting to be sure that I would not bring harm. Though, you have a Crowned Sun in your midst. Even if I was a full blooded fae I couldn't harm you if I wanted."

"My daughter refused to tell me about how this all went down as well, and then resisted my attempt to look into her memory. She's gotta a lot stronger since she was down here. But don't sell yourself short, you seem like more the type to get her and you out of death. Don't be a martyr just for the sake of it."

"As for the soul, I, see. Well, thanks for saving what you could. How, exactly, are you going to give it to me? How do you have it stored to begin with? Do I need to make a soul gem for his soul to go into?"

Rishi "I am not planning on being the Martyr. And my control over my form is being such that I am...most difficult to injure. But. I would rather be dying myself than letting anyone be harming them."
	 Rishi headtilts, considering. "It is being difficult to describe. ...I think the best way to be thinking of it is that I am having a ....pocket in my anima that the soul is staying in. If the city is not already having the soul receptacle, then yes, I am thinking building the soul gem would be for the best. Once it is being finished I should be able to be transferring it by touching." she headtilts again. "...Possibly I may need to lick it."
Amethyst "I'll see about making a soul gem. The recipe for them is somewhere in this book. After that I'll take a look at it and do what I can to ensure that his soul can continue its cycle." Ashuria says

R "And Rishi? Please, as a favor for me, keep my daughter safe. She's even worse than her father and he's missing. It would not be hard for Amethyst to get herself tangled up in something that she can't deal with, and then not back down. You know how she is by now. So, can you promise to do your best? For both our sakes."

Rishi Rishi nods. "I will be keeping his soul most safe until you are having them gem ready. And I will be most happy to be of any help in the fixing of it that I can be."
	 Rishi sighs, face falling slightly. "I am very, very much wanting to be protecting her but ...well, there are the times when I am wondering if she is not aspected of the air instead of the water, with how she runs into things. There are times when she is not accepting of my help." She looks Ashuria in the eyes and takes her hand. "But, I am promising you. I will be doing all of the things I can be doing for her and to be protecting her. I am loving her."
Amethyst "Maybe together we'll have what it takes to ensure he can be reborn." Ashuria smiles. And her face falls too, "Eesh, she even pushes you away? Gods I think we might want to make a sorcerous companion or find someone to build an artifact that will stay by her side even when she refuses our help. Some way to ensure that she comes back if she goes too far. If only we had the magic of the old solars..."

She looks distant for a second, thinking, "Their sorcery was what made us Dream Souled in the first place, or more accurately, made us Sanskara. It made us immortal like the gods of Creation, true scions of the border between Creation and the Wyld, a soul and a spark of chaos, but when Elderloch's magic failed, so did ours. We grew weaker, and though we still reformed, but, it took us time each life to remember our past and reclaim our powers."

Rishi "I have been considering summoning the demon bodyguard for her, just to be sure....but I am not entirely trusting the decisions of the Sondok or other guardian demons. I will definitely be thinking more on these things."
	 Rishi hrms. "I am not being the ancient Solar. I am not even being The Witch Queen who rules Mahalanka. But I am having the solid Sorcerous Will so I might be able to be of the help. And....I may have found an artificer. One who is of the Twilight. I was planning to introduce her to Ammy, and eventually, to you."
Amethyst "Hmm, an Artificer, Twilight Caste, those are the ones who built this city to begin with. If anyone can restore its magic it would be one of them." Ashuria contemplates, rubbing her chin. "Maybe convince Amethyst to summon her own sorts. Even having a few spirits around her as bodyguards could help deter anyone who would try something. Failing that, you should, as safely as you can, keep pressing her to her limit so that she might grow strong enough to not need our worries."

"Demons tho, they each have a will and mind of their own and they do not understand the world we live in. Always be careful with them, for they may not always understand what exactly you want of them."

Rishi Rishi sighs. "They can be most troublesome, yes. Possibly I shall need to simply ...conduct the interviews to find the best guard for her." she shakes her head then grins "I will be doing what I can to be keeping her safe and to be encouraging you both to be talking more. Please send a spirit to let me be knowing when the gem is being ready and I shall be doing the same once I have been talking more to the artificer."
	 She stands and holds a hand out to shake, though she looks like she'd prefer a hug. "I know that I am being the horrible monster, but I am caring about your daughter." she smirks suddenly, "and, if you are wanting the grandchildren, I can be arranging it without the difficulty, so do not be worrying about ...all of us being ladies."
Amethyst "I'm sure you will find a way. I'd like to know that this isn't some fleeting fancy of my daughter first though, no offense intended, but she is quite whimsical sometimes." Ashuria says, and she grabs the hand to shake but surprises Rishi by pulling her into a hug. She whispers to the lunar, "Besides, you probably know that Amethyst isn't as at home with lady parts as she once thought she would be." Ashuria plants a tiny little kiss on Rishi's cheek and breaks the hug.

"I'll send a message once the gem is ready, and if I find anything that might be able to protect Amethyst, I'll send another messenger. For now, Ms Rishi, I should get back to work." She begins flipping through her alchemy book, then starts to gather materials. "A soul gem will not make itself."

Rishi Rishi holds her in the hug for a moment, before letting go. She nods and starts to leave, but pauses. "If there is being any other help you are needing, of the Sorcery or the Healing, please be letting me know. I am being most skilled and I am liking this place." and then she leaves.
