From the Seat of the Baroness, The foul, detestable creature known as the 'Lily Nymph' has been plaguing the forest for far too long. The creatures of the wild have been without the perfect law and order of civilization, and this has been considered as the "natural" state of things. But, tradition is no excuse for the flagrant disregard for decency that the forest spirits have for the honest citizens of the Barony. That is why, by order of the Baroness herself, a bounty shall be placed on the retrieval on the Lily Nymph. A ransom of ten years' of soldier's wage shall be granted unto the one who would take this creature on and bring it to justice at the seat of the Baroness. Be on your guard for the wiles of this creature, and when you return, her nobleness will surely thank you personally. The seal accompanying this letter shall prove to you the sincerity of this reward. -Discarded letter discovered and stitched to the book with the following note attached: "We have failed."

The earliest chirping of the morning fauna greets the weary travelers as they make their way through the forest glade. Each step they take warms their bodies as if the sun had risen ten minutes higher than the last. Despite the thicker and thicker tree cover, the heat and the light filters through, showing off the most vibrant of greens and browns and the veritable rainbow of flower petals. All around them, the wildflowers bloom, and where their captors step, the flowers seem to move out of the way to make passage easy. Or, perhaps it is that they know just where to step not to disrupt the organic path. Either way, their trek is only hindered by the exhaustion the three feel from the harrowing encounter from the previous night, where terrible beast beset them--horrors not of the natural order, yet primal. Tik Tik's heart beats out of her chest, and with the discovery of this new and wonderful grove, she cannot help but forget those troubles as l her whole body rejuvenates beyond her wildest dreams. Even the most beautiful of crystals and gems lining the walls within the mines cannot compare to the splendor of nature here. The birds are more numerous, the flowers blooming wider, the water babbling quicker, and the fruit bearing larger. She can feel the energy, the life, exploding all around her, even within her body. For the first time, Tik Tik feels her very body as a part of the land around it. What wonders there are, just by breathing the air. Could this truly be the home of a monster that kidnaps unwilling young women? But wait... she herself was kidnapped. Had she forgotten that fact so quickly? Why? The two servants of the Nymph step forward into the flower field and kneel down, bringing the two offerings before the largest of the flowers--an enormous lily whose petals rival the branching limbs of the tallest of trees. Its leaves make for regal carpet, and the roots must be buried down deep into the earth, far beyond this place. "Kneel before her," whispers the lizard, Slusk, "and all will be made clear." Tik Tik scrambles to her knees, her hands in front of her as she bows her head. She looks over to Adaeze, her gnoll companion, who smirks as she glances her back. "Three against two ain't bad odds," she whispers. "When the bitch shows herself, light her up." Tik Tik nods and takes a deep breath, waiting with charged fingers for the arrival of their quarry, the dreaded Lily Nymph, abductor of women, and scourge of the countryside. As the sun's rays hit the petals, the giant plant quivers, spreading out in a curling display, the stamen reaching high into the air, and resting within it are the forms of three naked figures. The woman in the center is the very definition of beauty. She sits upon the middle, leaning her back against the carpel like it is a throne. Resting atop her head are petals, curling down in a bouquet of color. Her own stamen rise from the petals like a crown of sorts that add to her charm. Vines drape over her form, covering up what mere mortals would consider her modesty, but Tik Tik knows that the Nymph merely presents itself in a way to tantalize its victims. Through long, drooping petals, one closed eye slowly opens, hazily taking in the sights before her. Through full and beautiful lips, the nymph smirks, rousing to full awareness and rising to full height. As she stands, the vines drape over her, just barely covering her most intimate parts as she holds her hand out. The woman who lies on her left stirs, awakened by her lover's call, and she holds the nymph's hand, alien fingers stroking gently over her rough, worker's skin. The woman, or it would be more appropriate to call her girl, stands to her full height, reaching just to the nymph's shoulders. She had reached adulthood only recently, and the curiosity of youth has not left her, though the innocence certainly has. Her hair is blond tinged with the slightest of red. Her thin form and slight curves make her not the most beautiful of creatures, to those who preferred the more full, curvy figures, but she is not without her own curious charm. Freckles dot her cheeks, her nose, and her shoulders, showing a series of imperfections that certainly mark this girl as her own individual beauty. The nymph glances downward, eyes locking onto her flower, and she tugs the girl towards her. The girl covers up the nymph's body from the visitors' view as the nymph's hands explore down along her back, forehead resting upon the lover, but her eye still focused on her servant Slusk. The lizard bows her head further at the sight, and Tik Tik notices the slight watering at the corners of the woman's eyes. "M... My lover," Slusk says, her knuckles buried in the dirt in front of her, "I... I have brought intruders to you, but... we were attacked... by the dark force's creatures."
