The Empires of Terra

Terra, a world so similar to our own but different in so many ways.

The planet is home to many diverse populations, spread across the lands and islands that rise from the oceans. Humans, demons, elves and more have fought for control for longer than history has recorded.

You are the leader of one of these nations, and whether big or small you must guide it well. As the calendar prepares to record the beginning of the new century (1400 CE) many have begun to ask, who will live to see the next thousand years?

@mugin Eric is free to disagree still. Ash is just to much of a pacifist to run into a fight lol

Ash thought about Eric's proposal for a minute. He was having trouble recalling exactly how he discovered his powers, last night seemed liked a distant dream more than reality. How did he discover his power? It was a few moments of blissful silence before Ash had managed to actually remember what happened. It wasn't his transformation that had triggered his power, he'd had it for at least a week or so. He had just discovered it inside of him, or rather Eric had. Looking back he realized Eric's soul had known about his own power, and while inside Eric's mind it had guided him to it. Eric's soul had told him everything, his true name and what his power was. It had even awakened his own instincts on how to use them.

Unable to put the process into words Ash sent the memories to Eric, hoping he could tell what he was trying to convey. That was one advantage to their mental connection, words weren't necessary. If one understood it then the other just had to access the other's thoughts. Once the information had been relayed Ash focused on the last part of Eric's statement. The part about not running.

A fight with that man seemed like a suicidal mission, and playing his game would only legitimize it. The more he thought about it the more foolish it seemed to him. The man had been alive for at least hundreds of years longer than they had, time surely spent refining his powers. Even at his full awakened state last night he had been able to do nothing more than singe him, and that was at the cost of the hotel room being burned down. It was like a first day student trying to challenge a master, he'd just being toying with them.

'Babe, I have to disagree with you' Ash said through their connection, carefully choosing his words so he didn't upset his lover 'Yes we are strong but we are unrefined. I had to nearly burn down the building just to burn the man's hand, and even that was dumb luck. Besides, you heard him. The whole family has a vendetta against non-vampires, I doubt anything we could do would outweigh their immoral bigotry. He didn't even blink at my power, and I was literally throwing fire balls and turned the suite into hell. I think we would be better off just delaying our confrontation with him. He has centuries of practice, we have a few hours at best. I don't want to risk losing you to his insane agenda.'

The last sentence was taking on a distinct begging sound. The thought of losing Eric was to much to bare, and there was no way that Ash would be able to fight the impulse to save his lover. Even last night, when they were just talking he had been unable to control his urge to protect the guardian. A rather humorous thing, considering Ash was half Eric's size and looked about as scary as a toy doll next to the giant he loved more than life itself. Though he would never admit it Ash also wanted to go to Canada to return home, to Quebec. Though it was not a decisive reason it still lurked there, in the back of his mind.

Worried, hopeful, concerned

Time Jump- 8 hours

After their eventful night Ash had finally fallen asleep, exhausted from the night's events. His and Eric's bodies had proven to be a perfect fit, much to Ash's pleasure and surprise. Especially surprising considering how differently sized the two demons were.

With a yawn Ash sat up in bed, wiping the sleep from his eyes. The first beams of the morning sun were just entering the room, gently waking up the now full fledged demon. He had fallen asleep in Eric's arms, and smiled at the sleeping guardian's face. He looked so tranquil and happy in his sleeping state. As Ash looked around the room his mind slowly began to recall the night before, the fight and the man's threat (for he would never call the man truly Eric's father).

With some alarm he gazed around the room taking in the damage he had caused, with growing worry. A large chunk of the wall was missing between their room and the living space, half the living room was burned beyond recognition and the splintered remains of a dresser lay where it had landed, its contents long burned beyond recognition. This was going to be hard to explain, and it was almost guaranteed that they were going to be banned from the hotel once they got found out.

With a sigh Ash sat back, resting the back of his head against Eric's strong chest, pondering what to do. It was safe to say they were about to be homeless, and there was the more pressing issue of the man. He was going to clearly be trying to hunt them down, even if they escaped from the city. They did have some advantages though. Ash was fully transformed and apparently had fire powers. They were close to the Canadian border and he had Canadian citizenship. Ash still had some money in his bank account, only about a thousand dollars (that was originally meant for tuition) but it was something. Add to that the fact that Eric's family was apparently not popular with other demon families and things honestly weren't as dire as he had initially thought.

Ash silently reached his mind out to Eric's sleepy brain. He mentally poked the giant to try and wake him up, he felt bad about disturbing his sleep but they needed to plan. Ash mentally said through their connection 'Good morning my love. It's time to wake. We must plan our day'

Groggy, concerned, thinking they should flee

Ashburn

As the hydrolic system closed the suite door Ash slowly turned back to his partner to confirm he was alright. To preserve energy Ash let the fire around the room die down, but left the fire engulfing him intact. Not for him, but for a very aroused Eric who was eagerly requesting his presence.

The arousal through their mutual link made Ashburn smile, and turned him on. His clothes has burned off, so Ash's excitement was abundantly evident. The energy in Eric's soul powered him so he didn't even feel tired after that impressive display of power.

Ash glided to Eric with a warm smile on his face and evidence of his attraction to Eric blatantly visible. Ash narrowed the fire to his wings as he stood on Eric's lap, revealing his body as he gently kissed Eric's beautiful lips and Ash pressed his body against the giant's torso, bare feet resting on Eric's legs like a step stool.

Deep in love, turned on, protective and very happy

Here are the highlights in case my writing was hard to understand

-Ash made his final transformation and his heart stopped making him a full fledged demon

-Ash broke down the wall and now the apartment is on fire

-The fire is avoiding Eric so he can not be harmed by it

-Eric's dad just casually left, but got a burned right hand for his troubles
