The Devourer's Husband

Fiery tales

it was quiet as Basil moved throughout the ring. That is until Pythor comes, he needs to know what Basil is planning and why he is acting so strange

Pythor: Basil, we need to talk. Lately, I've noticed some in behavior. You've been showing some violent tendencies. Care to explain?

Basil: Oh, Pythor! What a surprise to see you here. Violent tendencies? That's quite an accusation. I assure you, there must be some misunderstanding.

Pythor narrows his eyes, crossing his arms skeptically.

Pythor: Misunderstanding? I've seen you lose your temper a few times Basil. It not like you. What's going on?

Basil takes a deep breath, setting the decorations aside and walks towards Pythor, seeking to address his concerns face-to-face.

Basil: Pythor, I understand why you might be worried, but honestly, it's nothing serious. Life can be tough sometimes, and I've been dealing with personal challenges that have caused occasional frustration. rest assured, it doesn't define who I am... anymore

Pythor interrupts, his voice filled with suspicion.

Pythor: Oh, really? Personal challenges? What challenges could possibly make you act out like that?

Basil remains calm, trying to keep the conversation on track.

Basil: Pythor, I've always valued our relationship, and I don't want this misunderstanding to drive us apart.

So drop it already.

Pythor pauses, his expression softening slightly as he considers Basil's words. After a moment, he uncrosses his arms and nods

Basil: Now come. We must get the third Fangblade, we have no time to dawdle

Basil slithers to the meeting area followed by Pythor. It was time for him to take back what was his

Skales: Ah Basil, Pythor, Now we can begin.

*Timeskip Basil pov*

We were digging in a volcano. Here the third fangblade layed in wait for me

However I did sense a need for something, seeing all the Serpentine working together like this made me... proud

Basil: While we are digging would you like to hear a story?

Skalidor: Oh? Sure it will pass the time

Acidicus: Yes

Basil: Lovely! Ahem let's see... how about when I first met my dearest

This got their attention as I smiled. I'm sure they were curious but I'll have to leave out a few details

Basil: "Long before time had a name. Their were Serpentine, multiple clans with multiple faces all coming to be after my blood was shed into the sand.

The city of Ouroboros was made along with the tribes. I was happy, I had a duty to protect and lead my children to a happier future

But that's when I met them, 2 beings like myself. One of light and order, the other of darkness and chaos. We chatted away with eachother

Afterall their were other beings besides Serpentine, I couldn't help but be curious. However then life took its course a........ a... Serpentine died.

Full of fear and anger I went through every spell I knew trying to bring them back. Then the being of light showed themselves

Seeking to punish me for my dive into the unknown of the world. He cursed me to live without dieing and to watch as all of my children would die slowly but surely. I watched as they grew apart, eventually separating into their own tribes
