Part Twelve

“Oh God.”  Raven’s hand went over her mouth as she stared at the bloody aftermath.  “He pulled out …”

Alex turned to Moira eyes flashing with rage, he could feel the energy building up within him.

Wind began to whip around all of them, as Janus calmly twisted his hands, making each tornado grow, eyes focused on one person.

“Stop.”

Everything and everyone froze.

There was a partial red glow surrounding Alex.

Sean’s hair was pushed sideways, as tears streamed down his face, mouth half open.

Raven was partially turned away, hand reaching for Charles.

Charles stepped in front of Moira.  “Why?”

Sylum Inspiration: Xena

Medjai: Hunter

 

Xena committed numerous horrible deeds from terrorism to piracy and murder and at one point became known as the “Destroyer of Nations.” Her journey down the path of evil arguably began when her beloved brother was killed during an attack by the warlord Cortese. Xena vowed revenge and became estranged from her mother as a result.

Xena became the leader of an army and aligns herself with Borias whom she effectively seduced away from his family and the two join forces. The two became lovers and after a time, Xena became pregnant with her son Solan. It was during her pregnancy that a significant event happens.  Xena traveled with her Army to North Africa where she hoped to build an alliance. Subsequent Borias betrayed Xena lead to her being hunted. While on the run, Xena found her way to a powerful noblewoman. Shye cared for Xena as she never had been before, treating her as a friend who was only interested is helping her become a better person. Under her friend’s guidance, she learned to put aside a great deal of her hatred and pain. Additionally, she gave Xena the metaphorical title “Warrior Princess,” intending that she be a major catalyst for change in the land.

Borias and Xena reconcile and renew their alliance, only to break it a final time and to split their forces between them, with Xena proved the stronger of the two. Borias was killed in the forthcoming battle, and Xena gave the newborn to the noblewoman so that he will be kept safe and protected.

Her life fully changed when she’s confronted with Ares, the God of War, in battle. He’s impressed by her skills and has thoughts of bedding her. She refuses him and attacks, only for him to reward her by Turning her.

Sylum Inspiration: Boromir

Medjai: Lead Hunter

 

After Boromir’s mother’s death, Denethor his father, became sombre, cold, and detached from his family, but the relationship between Faramir and Boromir only grew closer. The brothers greatly loved and highly esteemed each other, and neither in childhood nor in later years was there any jealousy or rivalry between them, even though Denethor openly favoured his elder son.

When the time came for him to go, Boromir hated leaving his younger brother behind.  He knew he would take the brunt of their father’s madness, but he had been called to serve his King and he was duty bound.

Faramir had told him not to worry.

Boromir became King Richard’s Captain of the Guard. He took care of everything Richard needed, even warming Richard’s bed at night. He was the only soldier left standing when the Infidels captured Richard in Jerusalem.  He continued to do what he did best and protect his king.

One day he was dragged out of the rooms they were being held in, and thrown into a dark cell. He had already been whipped and beaten, many times, and each time he refused to scream. He had been surprised at how caring Richard had been when he was dumped back into their room.

This time he knew it was different.

Sylum Inspiration: Evie Frye

Camelot: Hunter

 

After being Turned, Jacob and Evie were sent to Masyaf, and then to Egypt with Proximo.

It was there that they learned skills to enhance their natural fighting styles.

When they returned to London, they took over Nico and Sherlock’s job of protecting the City.  A few years later, Jayadeep was sent to them for training.  They thought it ironic, but took him in no less.  Evie knew the kid (despite the fact they were the same age) had a small crush on her, but she made sure he understood her preference didn’t lean towards men.  They ended up good friends.

Leading to her Turning him, when he was mortally wounded.

Evie was glad to have Guin in her life, not having had a woman’s influence since she was young.  The two became firm friends, and if ever needed, she guarded the Queen.

She also took to Galahad, the two becoming friends who enhanced each other’s youthfulness.

She knows Jacob stays more aloof to other Clan Members, his loyalty strictly for Nico, she can relate as she has a soft spot for her Sire.

Rumor has it she may have had a child before she was Turned, but this is only hearsay.
