[color=FFB6C1]Location: The Slave Market – Undoubtedly Happy to win, the auction for Rote & Jehenne.[/color][/center]
[hr]

Louise smiled kindly about winning the said auction for Jehenne & Rote for the Company, which made her definitely happy about that. She wanted to cheer because of it, however, her enthusiasm went down slightly when the Auction Master said he could have disqualified her from bidding because of intimidation. The hatred, which was burning in her heart for her father Steven was ever presence in the back of her mind. It will always be there ever presently in her back of her mind because of what he said when she walked into his study, five years ago. [color=FFB6C1]”I will keep my outbursts and other such things to a minimum since it would suck being disqualified.”[/color] Louise said, with a slight nervous to her tone. However, she specifically remembered something specifically, which she got the proof of credit in form of a banknote. It was specifically signed by Cocheta, which is her boss of the company. [color=FFB6C1]”I do have a proof of credit, which is this bank note for five million gold. It was signed by my boss Cocheta.”[/color] Louise responding to both questions. She gives the banknote to the Auction Master, with the leader of the Company’s signature on it. It takes her sometime to sign all the papers that the Auction Master gave her to sign. The signing one’s name constantly is a bit of a pain, but that was over to say the least.

She felt like she was being watched by someone, which caused her to look around. It didn’t take much time to look for the person in question, since he was definitely not conspicuous at all. The spear, which he wielded and the flowers in his hair was a bit strange nonetheless. It didn’t help she really didn’t have any outside interaction with anyone since she was trapped within the von Hammerwhirl Estate as a prisoner or slave in a sense. [color=FFB6C1][i]”What’s his problem? Guess he doesn’t like the fact I use my name… it is definitely tarnished because of my father Steven’s actions.”[/i][/color] Louise thought to herself, which she decided to look back at the Auction Master.

Louise noticed the branding iron, which glowed with High Magic that would burn Rote and Jehenne’s flesh with a brand. It made her winch a bit mostly because High Magic can’t be healed with magic but only like a doctor with medicinal aid can heal. However, she saw Rote step back, which what happened next in terms of what he had said caused her to be pretty afraid. [color=FFB6C1][i]”The Old Gods? I remember my father talking about all the religions equally as bad superstition belief systems. Which didn’t hold any traditions other than gaining a large cult of brainwashed followers… However, he outright hated the Old Gods more than anything… But traditions like my father’s were definitely not something to be followed either. But my mother does worship the Existence Church though...”[/i][/color] Louise thought to herself, with a slight bit nervousness to her whole body as it shakes a bit. However, she tried to act like it didn’t really bother her, however, it made more sense in why that mysterious man specifically said displeased now. It made more sense now than it did before. Even though it definitely made her more determined to deliver Jehenne & Rote to the Company’s HQ now more than ever. 

Louise saw the Auction Master quite irritated by the whole situation, which caused him to call the guards to seize Rote for the Branding Iron in question. However, what Rote had said before he was branded by the Auction Master, caused her to worry a bit more. She was definitely now trying to hide that worry on her face to make sure that no one knew that she was worried. [color=FFB6C1][i]”He has definitely given me a bit more feeling something bad is going to happen. Then all the years I lived with my father Steven. If it wasn’t for my mother Raina, I wouldn’t be here buying these slaves… I guess I should be grateful for the small things in life. But how callous my father was in that sense… I hate him for that specifically.”[/i][/color] Louise thought to herself, with a slight look down. However, then the branding iron touched Rote’s arm, which causes her to wince in pain because how he screamed definitely didn’t help her situation. She glanced to Jehenne when the Auction Master addressed her, which she felt like she was going to wince again.

Then the Auction Master turns to her specifically to talk about the magical stones and the Brands in question, which control the slaves magical powers. She decided to definitely take a mental note of these said magical stones because it was unique and felt more like a more advanced version of the slave collars. Even if a slightly simplistic, since they are magical stones. [color=FFB6C1]”Auction Master, I won’t lose them, since they aren’t probably replaceable. It would be quite dumb to lose said magic stones.”[/color] Louise said, with a simplistic smile on her face. It was definitely interesting to be for sure, however, the whole thing wasn’t what she wanted in her life. A Conspiracy in the town she moved to get away from her mansion, which is very far away because of her asshole of a father. 

The Goreflame Staff crackles, pops a bit and speaks with a distinct tone in its voice, which sounds like an older woman that sounds quite motherly and protective. It felt like it was speaking in a whisper, which was most odd to say the least. [color=DC143C][i]”Louise not many people would understand or would care what a slave has to say. Why should you, because I can tell when you are nervous or afraid? The constant threat of death living in your home probably didn’t help your feelings towards your father specifically. However, do not worry about what was said by Rote Kaufman...”[/i][/color] The Goreflame Staff’s Motherly Voice whispered. It was telling the truth since it has never once lied in its life as it was with Louise. The mother always never believed in conspiracies because they are always misplaced or what not. However, the Goreflame Staff was created via a ritual sacrifice, which caused these three souls to live within the staff for the rest of their lives but they never once regretted their decision. 

This was odd, which it has never done before it speaks yet again, with the same voice, which whispered towards Louise. [color=DC143C]”Every single person are quite unique since they all share a free will. But the figment of their desires outweigh the set goals of each individual to something greater as if it is tempered by an outside force of magic that is all around us. Me and my children, which are within this staff only wants to protect you Louise. And your free will and desires are quite similar to ours, the freedom to be free from the shackles of rules. However, must follow certain laws of the land or you will become shackled like the ones on this stage have became.”[/color] The Goreflame Staff’s motherly voice. It was telling the truth about this part of what it spoke, which following the rules of certain people are a detriment to your growth while others are not. However, how you reach those rules that aren’t a detriment to your growth is a long, wild, and destiny usually has something to deal with it.

Louise had to stare at her staff for a bit because it confused her for the first time in awhile, since it spoke twice in succession, however, the first time was a whisper. She was obviously a bit taken aback by what the Staff had said both times. [color=FFB6C1]”The Wisdom you spout, Goreflame is a bit overwhelming is sometimes. However, I am grateful to you for helping me find my way basically, when I walked from the von Hammerwhirl Estate to Venedig. Wish it wasn’t a long walk and travel by boat to reach here...”[/color] Louise said, with remembering the journey. It was long and tiring, which definitely hurts to remember, her feet hurting so badly. However, it sounds like Louise was apart of a highly rich family, which lived in a big mansion but was disowned by her father in how she acted when she flared up in anger. She rolled her eyes because she remembered what the tattoo was created out of, which is why she cannot get rid of it by her magic, the same on the branding iron. [color=FFB6C1][i]”...I hate my father for making my mother Raina tattoo me for something I had to do but he was grateful to me, for burning down my childhood home because he was wanting to make it bigger and remodel it to his traditional standard… I don’t ever regret what I did because I wanted to be free from those god awful traditions and my father’s gaze.”[/i][/color] Louise thought to herself, with a definite annoyed look on her face mostly because of it.
