In the Mind of a Green Sun Prince (Exalted/Nasuverse)

Reader mode
I would like to point out that there is no good way to phrase what basically amounts to "You just fucked up so badly it's been decided that your ass is getting possessed by a demon so you can fuck up even more. Also I am said demon. Hi."
 
Definitely need to learn Eldritch Secrets Mastery as soon as Kiritsugu hits Essence 3.

Not sure what other charms he'll aim for to better sneak in and get his daughter out.

Does he know the fake priest murdered his wife?
If so, that will probably be on his agenda.
 
[X] Comforting. It's not his fault he failed, he's only mortal. But, we have something that will help him never fail again.

Except it's not possession. We're here to give him the power to make things right. That's what the deal (ostensibly) is. Kiritsugu will still be in complete control of himself.

It doesn't often end up that way though.

Kiritsugu is at his most broken now with his relief at saving Shirou being his only balm. Strike while the iron is hot!

Basically he's at Willpower 0 so if we were to come along with our Charisma 5 prowess we have a decent shot at convincing him.

[X]Helpful. A hand offered at your lowest point is the most seductive and it would not do to start a partnership in a false deal. Aproach him. Help him get the boy out of this damnable conflagration and commiserate with his weakness.

I hope I created a trend, because more Infernals is always awesome!

Minor spelling issue fixed.

    The first thing that the man notices is the music. A harp sounding around him, soothing and calming.

    He turns, and sees you. You wonder what you must look like to him. A woman taller than him, with hands that branch into many smaller fingers that weave through harp strings that only appear for a brief second, and gold hair that moves of it's own accord.

    You smile kindly at him. "Are you okay? Do you need help?"

    He gapes at you for a second, and you see him reaching for some strange flame piece on the ground, before he stops. "What are you?" He asks.

    "A concerned spirit." You frown, and kneel besides him, looking at the bruised body of the boy. Your hair moves to him, as you go to bundle him up, but the man flinches. "Be not afraid. I mean no harm."

    He looks at you for a second, and then nods. You bundle the child up in your hair, and smile at him. "Where shall I take him?" You ask. You're not quite sure what humans do to care for their young. You would have just given him over to a Neomah.

    He looks at the sleeping child. "This way."

    He leads you to where you see some large carriages with flashing red lights on them, with no horses in sight. Humans in white climb out of them, and start combing the destruction, whilst near them a large red carriage (Moving under it's own power? Is it an artifact?) pulls up, as humans in yellow use a long line that spews water to put out the fires.

    The man has you put the child where the people in white will find him, and then has you retreat, so that they don't see you. They take the child, and usher him to one of the white carriages, which rides off towards the city.

    The man smiles a little, then frowns as he turns to you. "Who are you?"

    What do you say?

    [X] My name is Azzaria, if that helps. I'm a...*realize he probably doesn't know what you are*a musician, I guess the word is? That thing you hear is my instrument-time. What you're hearing is your past.
    --[X] If he asks you to stop, admit you really can't-to stop playing really does not do fun things to your biology, and you'd die pretty soon after that.
     
    [X] "My name is Azzaria, but my name is of little importance right now. What is important is that the world is broken..." You play a sad, somber tune on your harp. "Things were better once. They could be again. You could make it happen, with the blessing of those who sent me. You have only to accept it, and the power to slay even the hateful gods who ruined this world would be in your grasp."

    The Exaltation will kill us if we take too long. Best to make the offer sooner rather than later.

    [x] "My name is Azzaria. I am here to give you something: power. The power to fix your mistakes, to fix everything. You simply need to accept it. However, you must accept it quickly. If you do not the power will burn though me and kill me."

    I liked this-

    This is a very good point. We should tell Kiritsugu that the power we hold is going to kill us. Offer him a chance to save us. In his state? He'll agree for sure.

    Not sure how to phrase it, though.

    -And so this was my attempt. However, I feel it's just a base and I'd appreciate if someone improved it.
     
    [X] " My name is Azzaria, my kind are called Angylakae, and this tells you nothing. I hail from a far distant realm, sent here by the Creators of Reality themselves, to make an offer. Within me burns the spark of power, and should you take it, you shall be granted power, and limitless potential for more; all in exchange for agreeing to restore the reality to its true form and end the torment of its makers. Will you agree, relieve me of my burden? My power is relatively short, for it is killing me".

    Something like that? too much waxing poetics, I know. But I really can't think of anything else. Technically, it covers all the basics. Save the world, save the creators of the world from unending torment, save us from the burden of exaltation.
