A black scaled bipedal creature stood tall upon one of the many dunes in the desert. His deep emerald eyes scanned the great expanse, arms holding a rifle at the ready. The lizard-folk hunter stood there, tail flicking from side to side, eyes focused and even though he suffered through the heat, he was determined. Nalin's target was somewhere nearby, he had heard the screech, the terrible noise of a corrupted gryphon and it was exactly where the nearby villager's had told him they had seen the thing, but now it was nowhere to be seen. Suddenly he heard that terrifying screech again, but this time it was far too close for his comfort. Turning about he saw that the creature was right there, talons coming down upon him. He had no way to defend himself in time, or even to get a proper shot, so he braced himself for pain. The creature swiped and clutched on to Nalin carting him off further into the desert and away. Finally the creature dropped him from on high figuring the fall would kill him. Nalin landed in a roll and got up as fast as he could, his entire world spinning. Dropping his rifle he prepared himself for the creature's second coming, eyes focusing on where the great corrupted gryphon was charging from, body shaking off the pain from the impact he had just received. Steadying himself he reached behind him to pull out his greatsword, the beast letting out a shrill sound as it impaled itself upon his blade Nalin letting out his own grunt as he pushed to embed the sword into the beast's chest. Even as the corrupted gryphon died its claws raked out at the air near Nalin, the lizard-folk hunter kneeling down low to avoid the talons. When all was still he took himself from under the creature, grunting as he yanked his blade free. Looking around he realized he had no clue where he was, and furthermore, no clue where the village with the commission center was.

Travel through the desert felt terrible in heavy armor. The heat didn't bother him so much as the effort of slugging through the sand with his equipment. Experience in this place had taught him to tread carefully through the dunes. Sometimes the large masses of sand could give way and swallow any who were unlucky enough to happen upon them into the earth, never to be seen again. Nalin looked around for any landmark, any at all, but he couldn't find a single one. Not one to give up hope, he continued making his trek through the desert, picking a direction and sticking to it diligently.

Time seemed pointless to keep track of, but the sun was still high in the sky and he certainly felt exhausted. His eyes were heavy and his limbs felt numb. He needed shelter, a place to rest, somewhere where his mind could rest and prepare for the rest of his journey. It was then that he saw fortune smile upon him. An expanse of red stone rather than sand appeared before him, and along with it a cave directly in his path. He had only to walk just a bit more, survive just a bit longer and he would have his shelter. Even if he didn't have water, he would get out of the sun, and off the damnable sand. It wasn't long before he made it there, wasn't long before the feeling of the sun beating down upon his horned head faded away. The shade of the cave felt inexplicably cool, but his body was so heavy, so very numb still. He found himself upon his knees, eyes half-lidded. Perhaps he had expended too much energy, too much time wasted in the desert, he was only at the entrance to the cave and he couldn't find the energy to go further in. Eyes shutting, his world growing dark, he passed out upon the cool stone of the cave, his body finally giving in.

Nalin awoke half way to the feeling of being dragged against rock. It was terribly uncomfortable, and he swore he could hear feminine grunting. Still his eyes were shut and he couldn't bring himself to stir fully. He was fading in and out at this point to the sound of someone urging him to wake up and stay with her. He didn't know who she was, or if she was even real, but if she was he would have to thank her when he could get himself up. Eventually he allowed himself to pass again.

Nalin's eyes broken open slowly and he sat up. His head hurt a great deal and his body still felt so heavy, his mouth so dry like the rock he was upon. Eyes adjusting to the cave he saw the form of some strange blue creature before him. A sort of avian bipedal female in barely any clothing with a nervous look in her eyes and plenty of fur. When she noticed that he was awake she presented a small bucket to him. Nalin looked to the bucket and saw that there was water within it. Grunting, throat dry he sat up fully hands moving to grip on to the bucket. With her help he got the bucket up to his lips and drank graciously, gulping down that cool liquid that felt like a dream against his parched tongue and throat. When he finished they both lowered the bucket to the cave floor and he began in a raspy tone, "Thanks...I thought I was done for out there, dead...I probably was until you found me. What's your name?"

The avian like female spoke quietly and rather quickly, a nervous mess it seemed "Nymph, and don't worry about it. I'd rather not have a dead body...not that I wouldn't have helped anyway just uh, don't worry about it."

She seemed so nervous, so skittish, but Nalin could worry about her later. He needed to get back to the village, but his body felt so weak. He was still so sore. When he tried to stand her hands moved to grip on to his shoulders lightly, helping him up slowly and making sure he could keep himself up. He needed to get his armor off, needed to rest without that heavy stuff on. With very little shame his hands moved to unbuckle and unhook his armor, letting the chest piece fall to the floor along with his equipment, his shoulders rotating, hand rubbing at the back of his head.

Nymph now was hiding behind the bucket she had in her hands, she couldn't believe that this stranger was half nude now and they had just met. Being polite she decided to offer the wear traveler free use of her home, "Uh...there are springs in the back where this water came back, if you want to wash down and relax."

The sound of cool water on his scales had Nalin sighing happily and his hands working on peeling his lower armor off as well, "That would be fantastic, I don't know how long I've been in the desert, but I can barely hold myself up let alone all this damn armor...maybe a quick dip might do me some good."

Nymph looked up only to hide herself again and squeal, "You could be less open about your nudity stranger!"

Nalin chuckled and rubbed at the back of his head, "Sorry...I was just eager to get that stuff off. Besides, you'd see me naked in the spring either way. Oh, and the name's Nalin, and I'm in your eternal debt basically for saving my life."

Nymph turned to lead the rude stranger back to her springs, she had never met a man so unabashed about being nude openly, but then again he was right, he was going to be nude in the springs so either way it didn't matter. As she walked she spoke quickly, "No need to worry about that. Once you're better you can be on your way and well, not worry about this place. I'm not being defensive just, I don't want you think that I did this for any favors...that would be rude."

Nalin quirked a brow. She was certainly the weirdest female he had met. Entirely too shy and her words were far too quick, but in a way he thought that was cute. Perhaps he would bother her just a bit, or at the very least take in her sights as she wasn't unattractive in the slightest. Her thighs were large and exposed through the small dress she wore, a feature which he valued greatly.

Nymph could feel the stranger's eyes on her at all times. He didn't seem like a bad person, not at all. She was a bit worried when she had smelled such dangerous magic from him, but all in all he seemed like a relaxed person which wasn't terrible at all. The smell of such strange magic unnerved her. She would have to make an effort to be more kind, be less awkward around him, there was no reason for it. Once they made it to the springs she took a deep breath and set the bucket down turning to face him, only to see that his cock was fully erect and his eyes were firmly glued to her thighs. Cheeks flushed she cleared her through and gave his snout a soft flick, "...We're here."

Though she had just flicked his nose and cleared her throat in such a manner. Nalin looked up to realize that she was smiling, her cheeks still flushed. Blinking he moved to walk past her, eyes looking over the grand expanse of spring water in the cave. Eyes wide he wasted no time in getting a leg in the water, letting out a hissing breath as he felt the cool stuff soak into his scales and sore muscles. Another leg in and he sunk himself until only his head was free of the water, eyes closed and mouth curved up into a happy smile.

Nymph smiled upon seeing this. Seeing the joy in his expression upon entering the water was almost entertaining. Sitting beside him she decided to open a bit and begin asking questions, "So why all the weaponry? Are you a soldier?"

Nalin's eyes popped open and he looked up to her, "Well, no, not really at all actually. I'm an eldritch knight, but I hunt troublesome creatures for an occupation."

Nymph brought her knees up, hugging them to her chest as she rocked back and forth, musing upon what he had said, so he wasn't a soldier, and nothing too terrible, "Eldritch knight...explains why you smell so weird...your magic is strange, nothing like I usually catch wind of over here."

Nalin turned to pull himself half on to shore, looking up at her with a quizzical look, "You can smell magic? Type of power is that?"

Nymph smiled just a bit, "No real power...it is just something I can do, besides. It isn't that interesting, I'm still more curious about you. How did you get lost in the desert?"

Nalin sunk back in to the water, chin resting upon the stony cave shore, "I was in a battle with a corrupted gryphon, a terrible creature that I was hunting down, and it snuck up on me...it dragged me far out into the desert and I couldn't find my way back like an idiot."

Nymph giggled, "If you're as bad with directions as you say, then perhaps the village was closer than you thought...and I hate to break it to you, but if you're speaking of the village I think you are speaking of, it is far in the opposite direction of this cave."

Nalin groaned and sunk further into the water. Nymph crawled to the edge of the water to give his head a soft kiss, "Poor thing....I'll take you back home when I can...but for now you can stay here with me...I'll take care of you."

Nalin looked up at her from the water and their eyes locked. For a moment he stared until he reached up to touch her cheek, thumb stroking at her soft cheek before he leaned up to plan a soft peck against her lips. A brief kiss that had his body shivering and her cheeks flushing a deep color. He had expected a longer resting period before Nymph caught up, but instead she immediately returned the motion, her own lips capturing his lovingly, passionately, but gently. Together they stayed there lips locked, Nymph's hands upon his shoulders holding him there, feeling over his strong form. As their lips parted Nymph moved from where she was to stand. Eyes closing she moved to shuffle free of her dress.

Nalin's eyes were locked on her now, watching her strip, one hand moving between his legs to grip at his firm member which felt warm even beneath the cool water. She didn't join him however, instead she winked beckoned him with one finger, an invite he took without need of too much urging on. Getting on to the shore he moved with renewed strength to her embrace, their bodies coiling with one another, tails curling against each other's, lips returning to that passionate embrace, arms wrapping around one another. Nalin had no problems with a flight of fancy, especially if it led to something more. Nymph was a catch, a beautiful and exotic creature he would love to keep for himself. Again their kiss broke apart, but this time it was nymph herself that did it. She broke their tie to trail down his body, her long tongue licking from his chest all the way down to his crotch and around his cock, teasing Nalin and causing him to shiver just a bit. His hand moved to the back of her head now holding on gently and gripping through blue hair. It was almost too much to handle, her tongue rolling around his crotch, barely brushing against his cock, never truly gracing it. He so badly wanted to order her to get on his cock, to suck upon it and stop teasing him so much, but he kept himself calm, letting her explore as she pleased, allowing her to tease him even if it brought an unbearable heat to his body.

Nymph could feel the heat coming from his body, from the way he looked at her, and the way his fingertips gripped through her hair. She loved it and wanted to experience more of it, but she knew she could only tease him so much before he popped. Deciding that enough was enough she dragged her tongue against cock, trailing down to the tip and moving underneath and back down to the base. She could feel his cock twitch, his legs shake against her hands and when her tongue met the tip of his cock again, she tasted salty pre gathering, dripping from his tip. Opening her mouth she brought his cock inside, bobbing her head back and forth again and again while her tongue danced and coiled around his cock. Massaging the underside of his cock she took a slow pull, pushing back to shove most of his cock in her mouth. His girth caused her to gag, but she soon was adjusted to it, pulling away slowly to present her open mouth to him as a gift, to show him that he could use her, abuse her mouth as he pleased.

Nalin soon read into her desires, both his hands gripping on to her head so he could hold on tight while sliding his cock against her tongue slowly. He could see that she was bracing herself, closing her eyes and preparing for his onslaught. Already he felt so close, his cock twitched, his body shook, but he wanted so much more from her. Getting most of his cock inside of her mouth he began rocking his hips back and forth. At first his movements were gentle, scared to hurt her, but soon enough he began rolling his hips faster, pushing in deeper, thrusting to her mouth even though she gagged just a bit as he became rough. Panting, Nalin wanted more and so he quickened the pace, thrusting in faster, hips working desperately to get himself off inside of Nymph's mouth. With one last thrust he found himself letting out a low moan without his own permission, pushing firmly against that beautiful tongue before letting out all of his cum against her tongue and pushing it deep into her throat with a thrust. For a while he stayed there panting, cock spurting cum and buried deep inside of Nymph's maw, but when he pulled it free he was still hard, still ready for more.

Nymph saw this and her cheeks flared. She had gulped down what he had given her and her own body's needs were rising as she saw the thick cock of a man in need, even after he had cum once. This time she didn't need to tease him, nor tempt him, he was in command now. Nymph squeaked just a bit as she was turn around and pushed on to her stomach, her hips hiked up high in the air so her rear was presented. Before she could lift her own tail Nalin had gripped and pushed aside the large thing, letting out a low hiss as he pushed his thick cock against her pussy. He had lost his mind in lust, but she wasn't about to call him back, no, she wanted more and would take whatever he could give her.

Nymph squealed out as suddenly her insides were stuffed full of his thick member. She gasped and looked back at him whimpering just a bit, but he only growled and dug his claws into her tail thrusting harder still to her. He had shoved the entirety of his cock inside of her. It was almost too much to handle, it had almost even had her collapsing on the cave floor below, but instead she held herself up, taking every thrust, taking every slam and push he had to offer. His cock was thick, thicker than anything she had experienced and she loved every bit about it, the heat, the way he breathed over her, claws digging into her tail. It was all almost too much stimulation, but something she was entirely in love with. Again she felt his girth slam on home, pushing in as deep as it could and he suddenly paused. Panting she tried to see what he was doing and was greeted by fangs nipping at her neck. Gasping she groaned out and shook. He had leaned over her and wrapped his arms around her like an animal, biting upon the back of her neck as if to claim her. Her hips bucked back and again she felt the urge to allow herself to collapse as he thrust down against her again and again, the weight of his body almost too much to handle, but still she refused to go down. It wasn't that she was being stubborn, no, instead it was the fact that she wanted everything that he had to offer, everything that he could give her; even at the end of it she was a broken mess.

Nalin was in a high of ultimate pleasure, a heat he could not describe. His mind was clouded by said heat and all he could see was the urge to breed, the urge to plough inside of this strange female and claim her for himself. His fangs upon her neck, his arms holding her in place, the thrust deep inside of her pussy, occasionally his cock slipping out, but instead of moving a hand to help it in, he only thrust and thrust again and again until finally it hit upon the mark that he desired, burying it back inside of that wet pussy that he was claiming as his own. Close, he felt so close now as well. The pressure was almost too much to handle for his poor cock. His thick member inside of her, squeezed by those tight walls, twitched and throbbed so painfully. He wanted to cum so bad, but he wanted her to give in, to fall and finally let him fully claim her and so he pushed down harder loving the sounds she made, loving the fact that she groaned and squealed, her body shaking. Finally he let go of her neck to grin, he felt her insides clamp down and tighten, quivering accompanied by the sound of her squeaking and whimpering. She had cum and he felt it upon his cock. Loving the fact that he had pleasure her so much with how rough he was being, he continued pushing on, feeling that she was weakened, determined to see her fall.

Nymph couldn't handle it anymore. She let out a weak groan and fell upon her stomach, panting, tongue lolling out. She had no rest though, her insides were suddenly filled to the brim with hot semen as Nalin thrust once more inside of her letting out a loud groan to her ear. Nymph let out a happy sigh as his orgasm slowed down, her body still shaking. Feeling all of that thick stuff inside of her she giggled and looked back to him only to see that his eyes were closed and he was out cold upon her back, "A-ah! Nalin! Nalin are you well dear?" it was then that she cursed herself realizing that he was probably still fatigued from his fight and from the desert. She then heard his stomach growl and she sighed, or perhaps it was just hunger getting the best of him.

Nalin awakened to a small basket of desert fruit and the smell of something being roasted over a fire. He saw that there were cleaned chunks of meat upon the fire, roasting and he felt his mouth water. If he could he would have eaten them raw right there but instead he settled for biting on one of the fruit. Looking around he couldn't see nymph anywhere, but signs of her were everywhere, including her dress laid lazily over his body as a sort of blanket. His head jolted as he heard the splashing of water. Towards the spring he could see that Nymph was getting out. He winced, lowering his head as he saw her fully though. He could see claw and bite marks upon her neck and body. No doubt that was made by him during his lust crazed state. Rather than punish him, or give him a sour look; she gave his head a soft kiss, her eyes closed, her hands cupping at his cheeks, "I was so worried with you passed out on me Nalin...goodness if I knew you were that hungry I wouldn't have done what I did, but I did enjoy it and I'll be glad to have you here for a few days...unless you have business elsewhere."

Nalin's lips curved into a smile and he lifted his head to push his snout against hers in a loving motion, "Hm...I think I can stay for a few days and probably visit every so often...It'll only be troublesome if I'm needed off the continent, but I'm sure even then I'll find a way to see you Nymph...you're too special not to find again."

Nymph gave his forehead a soft flick before she sat down near him, a fruit in her hand, "Good, but at the same time bring a map...I don't want you getting lost trying to find me again, I would hate for you to die Nalin...you're special to me too."

Against the light of the fire they nestled against one another and without another word they watched the meat cook. Nalin had found something special in the desert and even with his tendency to get lost, he also figured he had a tendency to get lucky, especially if he was going to run into such special creatures along the way. Still, he needed to get paid for his job, but that could wait, he had more important things to attend to.
