"Alright. But if you turn out to be a demon..." El said.
"Alright. But if you turn out to be a demon..." El said.
"Okay, Eminem. What's your powers? I've already seen people die after I kill them."
He gulped "well, I can do pretty much everything, um, move things, make fire..." He frowned "And you? What exactly is it that you do?"
"I'm the slayer." El said grandly.
"Oh, that's not intimidating at all, ah, and do you slay demons a lot?" he asked trying to keep his cool
"Not just demons. I slay vampires too." Eleonaire said, looking at her knife then back up at Merlin.
"oh! Well, that's reassuring!" he said "There are no vampires where I come from, but I have read of them...must be scary killing all those monsters, huh?"
"Not too scary. It's just the really powerful ones that are scary and...are you being sarcastic?" El said, narrowing her eyes at him.
opps! She had figured him out "No, not at all!" he replied but this time he let his tone show "I'm totally serious" he made an innocent expression
El grinned wickedly. "Riiiiiight." she through her knife into a wall.
Merlin did not flinch, really, he did not, maybe a little. He smiled "So you're good at fighting, huh?" he asks "I wouldn't survive without my magic"
"Of course I'm good at fighting. I have powers. What kinds of things do you do with your magic?"
((I just realized that El never told Merlin her name.))
"Well, I can throw people to the wall, or knock them out. sometimes even kill them but I wouldn't do that unless it was my only option" he tells her "What's your name by the way?"
"El." El said. "Does that mean people attack you a lot?"
He ponders his answer "I grew up in a poor village, many bandits came and went. I helped take care of them from afar, while the other kids trained with their fathers, a family friend, Gaius, helped me with my magic" he looks down
El hesitated. "I'm sorry. Your father's dead?"
Merlin grimaces "I'm not sure, maybe, I've never met him and mom doesn't talk about him. You? Do you have family?" he asks her
"Three quadruplet siblings!" El laughed.
"Yeah. So busy that my parents sent me here. They all needed attention from my parents." El said, pulling her knife out of the wall.
"Huh, well my mom always said that I was a quiet child, except when I was with my friends, then I was a trouble maker" he smiled, thinking about his home.
"Oh. I'm a trouble maker too. Back at home I snuck out a lot to kill vampires." El said casually.
Merlin gaped "You most be really used to talking 'bout, you know, all the killing" he shook his head "My friend Liam is just like you"
"Liam? Does he do magic too? And yeah, my life has been 'all about the killing' for a long time now."
He shook his head again "No, he doesn't. That's why we fought often, he always said that I could use my magic for more things but... My mom says it's too dangerous and she's right"
"So some people can do magic but others can't where you come from?" El asked.
"Oh, yeah. No one but Gaius and I can perform magic in Ealdor, my father did but..." He looked at his dagger "Can you help with this? I've never thrown a dagger with my actual hands, so I'm pretty much clueless" he says looking embarrassed
El grabbed it from him and threw it into the wall. It sunk in to the handle. "There ya go."
Merlin watched as his weapon stopped trembling, it probably looked easier than it actually was, he walked up to get it and then walked away from the wall. He grabbed the dagger like she had grabbed it and threw, he resisted the urge to use magic and win, but he didn't fall for the temptation and the dagger hit the wall with the handle and dropped to the ground. "I'm terrible!" He exclaimed, not that he was surprised
El frowned. "If you don't have superstrength, it will take practice, that's for sure."
((Sorry, it seems my comment was erased))"Well, there is a spell to enhance my strength, I could try that!" He exclaims and quickly murmurs a few welsh words. He inhales " I think It worked"
((Oh.))
"I think that's cheating." El said, despite the fact that she had superstrength too.
"I think that's cheating." El said, despite the fact that she had superstrength too.
His face fell "Well, no one has to find out, plus I've never held a weapon before in my life, what do you expect me to do?" he says in a weak voice
El's eyes widened. "Never held a weapon before?" she asked incredulously.
Merlin rubber his neck embarrassed "Well, it was mostly the grown men that protected our village, and I usually did farm work" he remembers something "But I used to play knights with pitchforks, does that count?"
El smiled. "Maybe." she said. "I don't think I've ever used a pitchfork though."
El shrugged. "I haven't had a watcher in forever so that could be fun." she said. Most of her watchers seemed to die really quickly, which was weird.
"Great!" he was exited to be able to give something that was rarely unique about him "So what's the story behind the name, why El?"
"El? It's short for Eleonaire." El said.
"My parents liked it." El shrugged.
"In my village, most of us have old names, so when visitors come by they don't call us by our names, apparently they are to hard to pronounce" he shakes his head
"Emmyrs isn't that hard to pronounce." El said.
