The country surrounded by lightning...
One foot on the land and you can already feel it. The power zapping your skin as you look ahead, only a foot away from Morax, your arms placed by your side, feigning ease even though your finger twitches a bit, waiting for the moment that you'll need to summon your weapon by your side.
You can never be too cautious when in the territory of the deceiving kitsune.
"Morax, (Y/N). Welcome to Inazuma."
You bow your head a bit in respect to the electro archon and her familiar while your archon offers them a sombre smile, his words of comfort spilling from his lips so naturally that you easily tune it out of your senses, instead, you focus on the third new presence.
Unlike the electro archon and the kitsune, this one is quite... innocent.
Like they haven't been alive for too long. Blood as pure as a child. Memories never tainted with the gore and angst gifted to every person that you closely associate yourself with. Just their presence alone, you can tell that they are delicate.
Delicate and human, if you will.
Before you can think of any more complex questions in your head about this new human - if you can call any of you that -, Yae Miko giggles to herself before gesturing for someone from behind Beelzebul to step out of her shadow.
With a subtle quirk of your brow, you can't help but admire them, eyes so bright, skin so soft and smooth, their hair silky and almost the same shade as the electro archon's.
Disregarding the watchful eye that the kitsune has on you, you offer the new entity a bow, introducing yourself as one of the geo archon's loyal yakshas, all the while, the boy in front of you can't help but blush at your introduction. Not expecting to be treated with such high regard. Especially from someone who he has heard so many war stories about from the many poets and books in Inazuma.
How you had fought amongst Gods, even against some of them, and won.
He can see with his own eyes how the stories and portraits that he had found in the libraries hold no match to your actual visage.
With how you hold yourself, your presence matching that of the archons amongst you, if he had not known better, he'd have mistaken you as one of the deities. Your skin glowing despite the many scars and blemishes that littered your body. It makes his mouth gape just a little, his dainty hand subtly moving to cover his face when he hears Yae Miko giggle beside him, using his sleeve to cover his face even more.
"It-It's a pleasure to meet you, Dendro Yaksha, (Y/N). I am Kunikuzushi, the electro archon's puppet and son."
How beautiful.
You can't help but think to yourself. Your gaze drifting from his intricate clothes to his face, flushed pink beneath his sleeves that continues to cover half of his face. So beautiful.
Ethereal.
He may have been a puppet but he could very well fit to be one of the Gods.
Giving him a nod, you try your best to give him a small smile, lips a bit awkward after not doing such a motion for however long you can remember. But still, you try.
You can never treat someone such as him rudely. Not only is he the son of the electro archon herself, but he has also caught your attention.
You do not know why yet. Why a puppet created by a God would interest you.
Maybe it's the nature of him essentially being similar with you and Alatus. Someone who serves Gods so closely.
Or maybe it's the way that he may have been a puppet but with only a few seconds of meeting him, you can already sense that he is far more human than you are. Nevertheless, it is not something that you'll have to ponder on for you need to focus on protecting Morax.
