~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
🍁 You are 12 years old and unlike the story board you are not a apprentice until you meet Asra.
"-54 bottles of juice on the wall, 54 bottles of juice!, take one down pass it around, now there's 53 bottles of juice on the wall" you sang as you walked through a forest to the kingdom of Vesuvia to see if there were any jobs available.
As you walked along you heard snoring.
"Huh?"
You walked closer to the sleeping person and saw it was a man. You observed him as his eyes fluttered open.
"Why hello there" he said as he got up and stretched.
"Hi mister" you said as you looked up at him.
"And who are you little one?" He asked.
"I'm (Y/N)," you said as bowed "what your name?"
"I am Asra" he said as you beamed up at him before you noticed a little snake "and this is Faust"
"Cute!, anyway do you know how far Vesuvia is?" You asked.
"A few hours down this road," he looks down from where you came "We're is your family?".
"Its just me," you tell him as you walked away "well thanks for the directions".
He jogs up to meet you.
"And why is a child like yourself traveling alone?" He asked you.
"I'm just traveling," You tell him as you both continue along "wether be it working or adventure I just keep on moving?".
He takes another look at you before asking "how would you like a job?".
🍁Now that you have a job let's see what this city has to offer.
"Your going away again?" You asked as Asra as he prepares to leave.
"Yes but I will return soon" he tells you as Faust slithers up your arm.
"Okay just stay safe" you tell him as he leaves the shop.
As you were getting ready to close you heard someone knocking on your door. Walking over you saw a lady with a scarf concealing her face.
"Good evening miss, We're are closing soon so you made it just in time. How can I help you?" You asked.
"I heard that you can tell ones future" she asked as she took of her scarf.
"Sort of, I'm new to all of this," you tell her "We're are my manners, I'm (Y/N)"
She was taken back seeing you had no idea who she was.
"I am Nadia" she tells you.
"Okay Nadia, lets head back and see what your future holds"
🍁You are like a little gremlin who drank ten cases of Mountain Dew.
After Nadia left, pleased with her fortune, you got ready for bed upstairs when you heard noise downstairs.
'Spooky?' Faust asked looking at the door.
"Helloooo?" You said as peaked your head out the bedroom doorways.
Once again you heard noise so before going down you grabbed a pillow and put Faust on the ground.
"If you are a thief I am armed and will attack?" You said as you slowly walked down the stairs.
The silence was frightening ass you walked down to the front. When you thought the coast was clear a shadow looked over you. Turning around you saw a plague doctor towering over you.
"¡ES UN ESPÍRITU!" You yelled as you threw the pillow at their face and ran to the stairs.
The person ran after you but just you then pulled out a broom and turned to them.
"Come any closer and I'll bonk you!" you tried so hard to seem threatening but you just looked like a angry goblin.
They put there hands up in defeat before taking off there mask.
"Well I didn't expect Asra apprentice to be so...rambunctious" he tells you.
"Yeah, well I don't feel like dying sooo," you point the broom at his chest "what do you want?"
"Well child I am her to get a little heads up on my future" he tells you.
"You could've just knocked on the door" you said as you lowered your broom but not before bonking him on the head.
"What was that for?" He asked as he rubbed his head.
"That's for making me think I was about to be murdered," You said to him as you lead him to the back "oh, I'm (Y/N), who are you?"
"You can call me Julian" he said as he follows you.
🍁You are always ready to help.
As you walked out the bakery after getting some pumpkin bread you accidentally bumped into someone.
"I'm so sorry, here let me help" you started to pick up the fruit the women dropped.
"Thank you" she said as you hands her the pomegranates she dropped.
"Once again so sorry about the mess" you tell her.
"It's no problem, thank you for helping me" she said as she left.
As you continued on you felt as if you watched. Looking around you saw a man staring at you. He looked hurt and sad. Walking up to him he started walking away. Picking up the pace you ran into a ally and saw the man there.
"Hello?," you looked at him as he stopped moving "Are you okay?".
Turning to you you realize this man was much taller then you. Looking up his cold eyes met yours of concerns.
"Are you okay?," you asked once more "you look sad".
His stone cold glare softened as you looked up to him.
"Be carful of those you trust" He said as he walked into a crowd.
Watching as he walked off you turned when you heard yelling.
"Are you (Y/N)?" A royal guard asked.
"Yes, That is me" you told them as the made way for you.
"The countess wishes to meet with you".
🍁Now you may have goblin energy but you are also soft.
You sat in the countess office wondering what you did. Were you in trouble?. Were you going to JAIL?!. Hearing the door open you stiffened in your seat and sat up immediately.
"It is lovely to see you once again (Y/N)" a familiar voice tells you.
"NADIA?!," You thought she was Reich but this is something else "your the countess?".
"Yes, I apologize for not telling you earlier" she tells you this with shame.
"Are you kidding me?," You asked "I thought I was gonna go to jail or something, give me a heads up next time".
"Well I'm sorry to have scared you" apologizing for the stress cause to you.
"It's fine," sitting down you relaxed "so what do you need?!".
"You see, the anniversary of my late husbands death is approaching and I need your help catching his murder?" .
🍁As a child one would expect you to be scared of ghost, Well let me tell you...
After once again meeting the lady you helped and learning her name was Portia you were lead to a room you were to stay in, but as soon night came you left your room to go and check out Count Lucios chambers to see if you could find anything to help your investigation. While making your way to the chamber you saw to little figures in front of you. Walking closer you saw....
"PUPPIES!" You whisper yelled as you walked up quickly to them "hiiiii".
Sticking out your hand to them they sniffed it before nudging your hand. You scratched behind there ears happily as you cooed.
"Aren't you the cutest whittle doggy's!?" You said happily.
They one of them bit your pajama sleeves and started to drag you somewhere. Leading you to a dark hall the dogs let go and left you in silence. Looking down the hall you you felt something pulling you towards it. Walking you felt a presence.
"Hellooooo?," You looked around " Espíritu?".
When you turned once again you froze. In front of you was a humanoid goat standing in front of you. Missing a arm and with scarlet eyes it stared you up and down.
"Umm- h-hi?" Nervously you waved at the creature as it growled at you.
"Leave~" was all it said.
"...nope," you said as you turned and left the room walking hastily "nopenopenopenopenopenope...".
You kept saying that as you walked back to your room eyes wide; like a frightened fawn. Closing the room door you grabbed a pillow and blanket, hiding your bed until morning. When Portia came into the room and found you hiding under the bed to say she was worried was a understatement.
"What are you doing?" She asked.
"Rethinking my life choices".
🍁Now things start to become interesting.
After a long day of investigating and talking you still no clues to how the count died and if Julian was even part of it.
You heard yelling late one night but ignored it to go over notes from Julian's office.
"What are you doing?"
Jumping from your spot you turned and hit the person with a book.
"(Y/N) it just me!" Asra yelled.
"Asra?, what the heck!," You yelled back as you hugged him before jumping back "I'm soooo sorry!".
"It fine," he looks at the desk "looks like you've been busy".
"You have no idea" you tell him tiredly. Worriedly he looks you up and down.
"When was the last time you got a good nights sleep?" He asked.
"Two... three days ago" you tell him. You looked at the papers before letting your head fall to the table.
"You need rest" he tells you.
"I need answers" you said as you pick up paper but soon yourself was being picked up.
"Hey!, what are?!-" Asra flung you over his shoulder and walked out the office.
"Your going to bed" he said as you walked into your room.
"But-"
"No buts," Asra dropped you onto your bed and brought the blankets up to your neck "you need rest (Y/N)?"
You pointed before sighing in defeat. Snuggling up the the pillows you looked at Asra.
"Can you stay until I fall asleep?" You asked him sheepishly.
As a small smile appeared as he pulled up a chair and sat next to you. After a few minutes you were out cold. Slowly getting up he blew out the candle and walked over to the door; He needed to chat with Nadia. As the room fell into silence a white figure walked over to your bed side.
"They expect a child to stop this?" The creature thought brushing a finger against your cheek. Like a infant you cooed and rubbed against it, craving affection.
He pulled his hand back before leaving you to rest.
🍁You Are great with kids.
"Hello" you said crouching down.
You came face yo face with a young child who looked to be no older than three.
"What the matter?" You asked soothingly.
"I can't find mama" she cried as you took out your handkerchief yo while her tears away.
"Shhh,there there," you picked up the kid as you put on a smile "why don't we go ask the guards if they seen your mom".
As you took the child to the guards on of them recognized him as one of the cooks kids. Once at the kitchen you saw a woman running around frantically.
"I believe this one is yours" you said as the mother takes her child.
She thanks you to the point of you becoming a blushing mess. Finally leaving you met again with Asra.
"I expect many thing, but you being good with kids was unexpected," Asra said as his next question made you freeze "We're did you learn to take care of children?". He noticed that with children you always showed extra kindness towards them.
"Id rather not talk about it" you tell him as you start walking away.
"(Y/N)?, are you-"
"I'm fine" you tell him before going to get ready to got into the city.
🍁Now things start to get confusing.
You stood in a room with Julian, Portia, Nadia, Muriel, and Asra.
"I killed the count!" Julian yelled at Asra.
"No you didn't, we don't remember what happened that night" Asra said.
"Muriel do remember what happened?" Portia asked.
"No" he tells her.
"Well we cant execute him if no one remembers what happened, but then the people will become enraged knowing we are protecting Julian" Nadia was now pacing around the room.
"What does (Y/N) think?"
"(Y/N) tell them I did it"
"(Y/N) tell them he didn't do it"
"(Y/N)"
"(Y/N)"
"(Y/N)"
"(Y/N)"
"AHHHHHHHHHHHH" Screaming frustratingly you left the room leaving with everyone in shock.
"I think we broke them" Julian said as Portia slapped him upside the head.
🍁What do you do when you have a mental breakdown?, you rant to animals.
The night of the masquerade you were no were to be found, worrying everyone. In reality you were hiding out in the garden.
"...Julian is pleading guilty but doesn't even remember what happened so Asra is way he didn't do it leaving Nadia trying to figure out if he should be hanged. Portia is with Asra say he didn't do and Muriel... well Muriel doesn't know anything about that night. So now I got one person wanting to die, two saying he didn't do it, and the other two trying to figure out what to do and even I don't know what to do" Ranting to Mercedes, Melchior, Camio, Chandra, Pepi, Inanna, Malak, and Faust. Sighing in defeat you fell to the ground. Pepi came and sat on your chest.
"I like talking to you guys, best part is that you guys don't talk back" you tell her.
Hearing a rustling from the woods you turn you head to see goat man.
"You know what, screw it," rolling onto your stomach you looked over only to yell "hey goat man, wanna join us!?".
As he walked over to you all he sat in front of you.
"So goat man, what brings you here?" You asked him.
"Home" he tells you.
"Going home, cool cool" you say rolling back on your back.
"You?"
"I'm having a mental breakdown my friend," then a question popped into your head "you know, I never got your name?".
"Lucio"
"That's a cool name" you tell him.
