ORIGIN

Reseda limped into the bone room, her mending leg dragging behind. Dealing with the leg had been a real pain, since it had slowed her down way too much. But at least it, and her rib, weren't broken anymore. Her recovery spell had made sure of that. However, she hadn't healed herself since she was in Polaris. She probably should do that soon.

However, before she could sit down and give herself another refresh, her eye caught on an orange crystal. She lumbered towards it, wondering if this was the world's way of giving her compensation for her failure. No, she didn't believe that. But it was something.

She reached its side and faintly saw a gem within. A little thing, unhatched, and looking a bit disappointed. It couldn't hatch. She decided that she might as well help. Perhaps it was something that she could use later on.

She raised herself on her hind legs and aimed carefully. With a strong swipe, she smashed her leg down on the top of the chrysalis, careful not to go all the way through and hurt the thing inside. Cracks spun on the gems before it shattered under her weight and she quickly retracted her leg and fell back on all fours.

Reseda stepped back as a goat came tumbling out of the shell. It was, to say the least, just a goat and she couldn't help but feel disappointed. She was about to turn and leave when the little thing asked a question. A very simple question that sparked curiosity in her brain. She looked down and stared at the goat for a moment before smiling. "Of course!"

She lifted a claw and tapped it on the ground, summoning a spell she had never thought would be useful. A single yellow fruit popped into existence in front of them. Carefully, she slit the skin down the middle and opened it up to expose the soft fruit on the inside. She showed it to the young one and pushed it in front of it. "There you go, it's very tasty! I can make more if you're still hungry."

The name fixed it in place. Gluttony. Perfect. She gave the little creature a gentle smile. "It's nice to meet you Gluttony, I'm Reseda." She touched the ground again and, this time, more fruits appeared. About five of them, right in front of the hungry one. She pushed them forward, not bothering to open the peel anymore.

"I wish I could teach you the spell, but I'm not sure I learned it myself, actually. I'm sorry about that." Yes, it had been strange. It could have been because of the egg she picked up that had turned into the fruit. She had considered never using the spell and forgetting about it, but it seemed that this would be useful for this creature.

Was it the one? The one that would become Gluttony? Who knows. It certainly had the demeanor and the name right. Now to see if it would be worth her time. "Why are you so hungry?"
