In the woods, there is the sound of a child whimpering. Then a second voice, a boyish and child-like voice, shushes her quickly.
A lanky masked figure stands in the middle of an open field, its arms outstretched towards the sun.
*I would love to RP with Alonza, but only the Abyss would really have any real reason to interact with her and it appears to be needed elsewhere.*
The Abyss slowly approaches the whimpering.
Lester observes from a distance.
Two children, a young girl with long black hair and a older boy with unruly brown curls lean against a tree. The girl wears a dirty white night gown and wears disgusting bandages dried with blood around her mouth and hands. The boy wears baggy clothing and has bandages around his neck and deep nick on the bridge of his nose. They both look up quickly and the little boy brandishes a dagger "S-Stay back".
The masked figure has the mask of a colorful flower with big bright petals. Its eye holes are too small and leak black fluid from them. A wide smile is painted on the front.
The Abyss does as it is told. "Poor, dear children. Are you hungry? Lost? I can help."
Lester does a quick sketch and creeps closer, trying to keep in the taller patches of grass.
The boy stands protectively in front of his sister, his teeth bared like a vicious dog. The sister however watches with bright red crimson eyes.
The figure doesnt seem to notice. They keep reached out to the sun.
'Don't worry, I'm usually wary.' He searches around in the grass for the talisman
He finds it, but when he does, it seems to have a strange worm coiled around it. It looks like a tiny flesh-tone lamprey, smeared with black fluid. It "looks" up at him.

The Abyss doesn't react to the snarl. It instead conjures a plate of fried fish in its claw, placing it on the ground and stepping back.
Lester decides to experiment. He looks through his bag, eventually finding the item he was looking for: a sunstone, a fragment of stone about the size of a fist that glows with sunlight. He tosses it over to the feet of the figure.

The girl and the boy tilt their head almost in unison. The jump on it like rabid animals, their teeth ripping and tearing at the meat. The girl doesnt take the bandages off her mouth but somehow devours happily.
The masked figure looks over at it, tilting its head slowly. It wanders over without a word and picks up the stone as if it were a bird, so gently it holds it. It nuzzles the stone for a moment before putting it in its pocket and returning to staring at the sun above.

The Abyss refills the plate almost as soon as they finish. "I will give plenty. You need only ask."
*"Interesting reaction. But what does it mean?"*
Lester slowly approaches, since the creature seems harmless so far.

They look up and tilt their head before bowing their head a bit as a thanks. The girl leans over and whispers into the boys ear and chuckles. The boy chuckles as well.
The masked figure turns towards Lester a bit. It wears a green sweater with long sleeves and brown dress pants. It tilts its head.
The worm curls on top of the glove, as though it were invited there.
"Ask me to kill the Butcher." the Abyss commands. It doesn't seem used to asserting itself.
'Um, hey little wormie? What're ya doing here?'
The worm simply looks up at him and makes a strange whispering noise, its mouth moving disconcertingly.
"That is my son. The Butcher is an impostor."
The Butcher suddenly attacks the Abyss, to which the smaller monster simply grabs the blade and uses it as a handle to throw the Butcher about ten feet away.
