The Frostback Mountains War redo

Jacylen looked down at his hand and stared until she shook him off. She sheathed her sword and looked around in anger. "My elk." She said, her mind was rather preoccupied and she turned to the elk. The buck was almost done being skinned.

Dalivite snorted. "Well I'm fighting in a war. What do you expect." He snorted. "And what happened to you? Go diving in lava?"

Ashlynn rolled her eyes. "No I was trapped up here," she growled and her hair fell forward. It was as red as her eyes. Her skin was a dark tan.

It was then that it clicked to Dalivite just what she was. "DE- DE- DEMON!" He stammered in a yell and fell right out of his bar stool. He shuffled to his feet and ran out of the tavern in a hurry towards Jacylen. "DEMON!" He screamed.

Ashlynn got up and walked out. "Wow, Dwarves are sensitive around us. So the rumors are true."

Jacylen looked from the boy to the screaming Dwarven prince. Her eyebrows furrowed together and she stared from one to another. Dalivite ran right up to Jacylen and tugged on her elbow, that was how high he could reach on her, and pointed into the tavern. "DE-DE-DEMON!" He screamed and began to look like nothing more then a large child. "Prince..." She sighed, and pulled him off of her.

Ashlynn was five feet from the Elf and Dwarf. "And the sad part is that I haven't even changed yet," she smiled and there were perfect white teeth.

"Oh... You weren't talking about me? OK! That's good. Now, why are you so scared of a demon? My family used to have a friend who was a demon, but some priest came and killed him. We were so sad... That guy had been such a good neighbor!!"

(Sorry late post)

Ashlynn growled at the thing and her teeth sharpend. Her eyes brighter.

Ashlynn growled more, "No, that was my sister. She's nicer than me." She looked at the Dwarf and changed her teeth back. "I live to serve those who need me and frighten those who don't."

Dalivite shuddered. "Demon spawn! Foul creature and monstrosity that preys on mortal souls. Tormentors of the innocent and defilers of the light!" He shouted in horror. "Shadows that trick children into following them to doom."

She laughed, "I don't steal children, and im nicer than who is trying to kill you. Im doing you a favor and not making you pa—" another deamon crashed into her. Teeth sank into her ams and claws ripped at her chest. She turned and fought back. The other one lunged for the Dwarf but was caught by a chain. It brought him back ashlynn who killed it. She was panting. Her claws formed to fingers and her teeth were blunt again. A wound was open on her temple but healed over.

Dalivite's eyes were wider then what should have been possible. He took a step back, and then drew sword. "What is going on!"

Ashlynn spit out blood. "That one was after you. There are more coming." She left, but a note apeared in his hand. "It would be wise to hire me."

Dalivite looked down and then growled with anger. "I don't deal with Demons!" He yelled and looked at Jacylen. "You gonna come with me to the capital?" He asked her, and she nodded. "I'll protect you with life." She said roughly and the two carried the elk to the platoon in the tavern, hardly skinned and left the fort by foot towards the huge hulking mountains.

Ashlynn growled at his stubornness. She knew that this was a no pay job and sat on top of the tavern. She continually smelled for any signs of other deamons.

"Yes," she hissed. "I was assigned to him wether he likes it or not. Both God and Satan aggreed that he should live as long as possible." She sniffed the air again. "Im the most experienced and have killed many of deamonds protecting him sinve brith."

(Is that just typos...?)
"I see... That's really cool! I don't really know what I did since birth. I had... Issues..." Tokage said, and balanced on his tail. "If you want I can help you... I'm going to be here a while anyway to restock my supplies I can just go in there and keep any eye out for suspicious people and try to distract them... I could also do something like have my lizard follow him, though that might be troublesome because of the goo... No nevermind. No lizard. He would cause trouble."

Dalivite shivered. "I hate demons." He complained and Jacylen nodded. "All dwarfs fear them, some even say they live in the caves where soldiers fell in battle. Slowly feeding on the innocent souls as they torment them." He shivered once again. "Anyways. I have a friend who might get us a ride into the mountains. Its a long walk and I need you fit for battle." He said and pointed at the mountains. "I'd say... thirty miles to the Capital outskirts. Another ten to get to the war room...." He estimated. The capital city was in the near summit of the tallest mountain. The top was actually open, an eruption long long ago before the dwarfs were building underground had blown the top clean off, leaving a shaft of light and sky to flow down into the city. Of course they had added a ways of keeping rain and unwanted visitors out now, but before the city would flood every time it rained.
