@[Rouhi]
She wears her scales like her father, across her shoulders and hips with a thin trail going up her spin. A swipe of the glimmering serpent-hide covers the high points of her cheeks and another accentuates the very tip of her nose. Her eyes are the color of tired emeralds but the paper thin pupil seems to seethe with an unspoken rage just looking for an opportunity to present itself. Khuma slinks through the forest, head held high and ears trained forward as she begins her hunt anew. Wane had given her a precious son but another year means another aching, tender heart to devour. Her tongue finds the pointed tip of one of her sharp teeth at the thought.
The fallen queen weaves between the trees, hips swaying gently with each careful step like a lion comfortably touring its own territory. The snow crunches beneath the weight of her hooves but she doesn’t seem to mind announcing her presence to subtly. She turns that pretty head when she hears another nearby, running and running until he seemed to find the perfect spot. Her feral eyes watch him eagerly, admiring the color of his body and the shape of his shoulders. Perhaps he could give her a child with wings. Maybe even a daughter. The thought ignites the fire in her chest anew so she draws closer, long strides fluid and ethereal when she closes in. She lets her shoulder brush along the length of his body as she approaches from behind, stretching her head out to whisper softly into his hear. “You look like you need company,”she says quietly, letting her warm breath spill across his skin before she pulls her head away once more. But she keeps her body pressed lightly to his as she watches him, chin tilted down all soft and coy. “My name is Khuma.” Though she isn’t cold, she feigns a shiver to see if he’ll press closer to her. The oil slick scales shimmer across her cheeks when she tilts her head curiously. khuma.

She watches him, eyes examining the way his lip curls around each syllable when he offers up his name. His face is kind like Wane’s but there is a quiet innocence there as well, without the hunger she had used to lure him in. Khuma sighs happily when he leans in against her to try and stave off some of the cold. Her question, though, causes her ear to turn in his direction while her eyes drift to the rest of the forest before them. Should she be honest with her new companion or would it be better to lie for now? She leans her head against his neck and gives a light shrug of her shoulders.
“I suppose it was time to leave my den. I was just lucky enough to bump into you,” she says softly, her voice all sweet and thick like honey. “Where do you live, Rouhi?” Khuma ignores the snapping twigs nearby. She’s always been overly confident in her own strength and so she tends to ignore little noises or things that go bump in the night. The only thing that interests her now is where this one lives if she can use him to find her next target. Someday she hopes to snag herself a king or someone with power but for now, her heart only craves strong children. They fill the void Tatter and Varus left behind, but soon her young will need her strength to give them their own foundations. “I don’t really have a home, myself. I’d like to find somewhere warm to settle,” she mumbles dreamily against his skin. Wane probably still inhabited the Icicle Isle and, while it had been a fine home to hatch Salvage, she’d rather avoid him for now. Smashing his heart to pieces wasn’t at the top of to-do list it seemed. The Chamber had been tolerable during the winter and an absolute paradise in summer, she remembers with a faint smile on her face. Anywhere like that would be ideal for her to raise another little egg. khuma. RE: Keep dreaming all you want; Khuma - Rouhi - 01-17-2019 keep your dreams in check Rouhi |
