Application for Drizzt Do’Urden (Forgotten Realms)

((Spoilers for the Legend of Drizzt Series including The Orc King))

Change

It is what happens with the passage of time, whether we mere mortals like it or not.
It is the wave against the rock, the falling of the shore into the ocean.
The challenge is to see this as change and not pure

Mel, by nature, is not a mercantile sort of creature. However, Christmas is coming up and Brice's present will cost quite a bit. While not one to usually approach applicants thinking directly about the bribe, it's useful in this case.

'Nice swords.'

[twoswordpsycho]

"Many thanks," he said. "Are you familiar with a blade at all?"

[totallyluminous]

Mel half-smiles, thinking of the sword made of light she uses to frighten demons into getting the hell away from her.

'Yeah, I suppose you could say that. Mine's not like one of yours, though.'

[twoswordpsycho]

"What matter of blade is it," Drizzt asked with a smile, hoping to hear more tales of adventure. "What manner of warrior are you, if I may ask?"

[totallyluminous]

Erm, a pointy one? Mel pretty much knows that her sword banishes demons, and that's enough for her. She shrugs.

'I'm not an all-out warrior. It's just, you know, if they're not listening...' She makes a stabbing motion. 'My sword can change shape if I want it to, but it's mostly a shortsword. Nothing fancy,' And it's not magicked so it speaks to her or anything, 'But it gets the job done.'

Drizzt listened in curiosity. This young woman was not a warrior, yet she possessed a shapechanging blade.

"Not a warrior, eh," he said. "What do you do?"

[totallyluminous]

Mel tilts her head, hair spilling over her shoulder. 'I...guess I heal, mostly. Stop the bad. I'm like...the opposite of a demon,' she clarifies, unsure if he has angels in his world. 'There are a few of us here.'

Drizzt furrowed his brows and looked at the girl. This could indeed be an interesting encounter.

"You are a celestial?" he asked.
