In the back of her mind, she can feel her mongrel, the insistent press of his thoughts against hers'; dismay and cowardice, dispassionate unease and, above all, dislike. The thoughts wash and pound against her skull with a ferocity not unlike the brutal waves of the ocean, slamming against the spiny spires of her soiled shores, ceaseless, endless, volatile. There is no escape from the kitsune, no liberation from the depths of his infinite contempt -- and it is this that plays upon her more heavily than all else. Not only has she let her family down, her godly father and the hallowed ways of his black reign, but she has besmirched the honor of her companion, he who crafted illusions of most monstrous intent and concocted shields of poisonous thought. How she mourned bringing him into this world, cutting him from his shell of guardianship to condemn him to her faux victories and false promises; he should've been born to a better monster than her! Someone who would've allowed his nightmares to flourish and grow and catch and snag every unwary fly to land upon the sticky webs of his arachnid grasp.

There is a fever coming down from above, a blush of golden wings and flashing feathers, heavenly; and even in her state, delirious and weakened, the cruelest of smiles curl hazily upon her lips as one eyelid blearily parts to see the smear that is Fina { mistaking it for a lovely god. } Has heaven come for her? The ultimate damnation; to be stuck with harps and lutes and angel wings in all their frivolous majesty!

No. The gods have done her at least this little favor -- her head shifts on the bed of leaves, and she heaves in a deep breath (it rattles like murder!) There's a voice, a stranger's voice, all swathed in courtesy and attempted comfort which makes her skin crawl and she exhales. Seeds of fear burn into being, tattooing themselves upon her heart, poisoning her -- and why, she cannot quite explain. Perhaps it has something to do with the paternal compassion cloaked and robed over unknown thoughts; perhaps it simply sounds too much like... Illynx. And, picking up on this threat, this perceived menance, there grows into being a thing:

A nightmare, born out of Mongrel's magic.
It cultivates, ripens, into a malignant sentinent that is held back from Midas only at the whim of Confutatis' kitsune, whom diligently continues working upon it, making each detail ever more real. Imagine the surprise it will be when Midas receives a face full of sorcery!

NO.
And with a reluctance, the companion lets the nightmare subside without it ever having been launched at Midas -- only at command of his beloved.

Heavenly calls from a voice long-remembered makes the wolf stir, head lifting from the ground with grandiose effort, eyes widening. There, there before her, (well, in truth, beside her) is the girl from the Caverns, and a sudden alarm bolts through her swift as lightning. The devilry of Confutatis' decay magic swells from her skin, and with great effort she draws it back, deep within her, effectively shutting it off. What is this? Confutatis -- caring? For a mere stranger? For a naïve darling with worry on her face? Eat her. Kill her. Thoughts pulsing through on behalf of Mongrel, confusing thoughts. Thoughts of murder, even in her deathly state.

Her head hurts.
Fucking Basin.

"Illynx." And her magnificent skull once again drops to the ground, nostrils flaring piously as she drags into another breath. "Just... weak." Control yourself. Don't admit weakness to an enemy!

But Africa was not an enemy.
Africa... Africa was something else entirely.
Something special.
