Tell us about Maveth and Pandoras first meeting! 👀
Actually, I’ll do you one better, here’s a small fic about how that meeting went :)
Death, and his Descendant
A loud ringing sound pierced the eardrums of a small half elf girl, only fourteen. She carefully opens her eyes to the black and lifeless void. Her head is throbbing with the worst pain she’s ever felt, and her vision is blurry.
Pandora sits up, realizing in doing so that she was lying down to begin with. Looking around, she sees nothing but pitch black. The ringing has gone away, only to reveal there to be no noises.
No sound, no visual aspect, no anything.
Until she hears a voice.
“Hello, Pandora.” The voice is an amalgamation of different voices, thousands— no, millions of different voices. At the sound of the strange voice, she jumps violently and curls herself up into a ball in a poor attempt to hide from whoever was talking to her.
“Oh dear…” The voice is now a singular voice, deep, but gentle. She feels a hand on her shoulder. Jumping once more at the gesture, she smacks the hand away and turns around, using her legs to push herself away from whoever the hand belonged to. It is at this point that she realized she was crying, why was she crying? Why was she so scared? What happened?
Looking up, she sees a man that looks very familiar to her. She’d heard plenty of stories about her relatives, including him, but she’d always been told to never say his name out loud to anyone other than her family.
“…Maveth…?”
“So you are familiar with my real name.”
She nods
“I’m sure you are curious as to why my name isn’t spoken to others outside of our family?”
“Mhm.”
“Many people believe that saying my real name brings bad fortune. Besides, many don’t even know my real name anyways, and I prefer that it’s information that stays within the family or those you trust dearly.”
“Oh…”
“Follow me, dear, there is much to talk about.” He offers his hand, Pandora takes it and he pulls her up off the “ground”.
The two walk over to a newly summoned sitting area, two armchairs sit on either side of a long dining table. They are only slightly lighter in color than the black void surrounding them, but Pandora is able to see them. She sits on the left end, Maveth sits on the right.
“I am sure that this is very difficult for you.” He starts, “Seeing me was probably the last thing you hoped for, especially considering your death was rather… traumatic.”
She doesn’t say a word, only nods.
“Now then, if you have any questions, I will answer them to the best of my ability.”
Pandora thinks for a moment, her headache had since gone away, allowing her to think and see better, “Who was that lady…? And why did she want to kill me so badly…?”
“Ah… her name is Alice Ripper, she was hired by a man named Lazarus to kill you. He is the eldest child of Valerie and Gabriel Lockwood. I’m sure you can understand just from that why he wanted to kill you.”
“…why can’t they just leave us alone?”
“I’m not sure, my dear. I wish for the same thing however.”
She sat silently for a moment.
“Is there anything else you’d like to ask me?”
She thinks, what else could she ask him? Well, one thing came to mind, but she doubted that it would work. It was worth a shot though, she was already dead, how bad would a simple “no” be?
“Could you… show me your actual form? I appreciate you using your mortal disguise but I think I’m calm enough now to see you how you actually are.”
Maveth gives her a curious look and a smile, “You’ll have to be more specific, I, can be anything.”
“I never expected the god of death to be unwilling to flaunt his god form.”
“! Well… you are certainly persistent. I respect that. If you could stand up?”
Pandora carefully stands up, and the table and chairs disappear, Maveth himself also disappears into the darkness. Soon, she hears a chuckle, it’s the same voice from before, but it has the same surrounding sound that the first voice did.
“I am up here, dear.”
She looks up to see four pairs of irisless eyes peering back down at her. He was a shadowy figure, made of up black smoke or black fog. He had large horns, along with some large feathered wings, he had no mouth, and he looked to be wearing a cloak with armor of some kind.
He was exactly what she expected, an amalgamation of all things capable of dying, plants, animals, aspirations, happiness, and most importantly, people.
A gigantic hand is offered to her, it’s one of many hands Maveth has. Pandora climbs into it and he raises her up to eye level with him, er, face level would be more accurate.
“Now then, I’m assuming there is still one more question you’d like to ask me?” He tilts his head.
She nods, “Would you…” she takes a deep breath in, “Would you be willing to give me a second chance at life…?”
His eyes widen, “While you are not the first to ask me that question, I am curious, why?”
“Huh?”
“Why do you think you deserve a second chance?”
“Well, for starters I’m only fourteen, and I was murdered very aggressively.”
“…”
“But I also still have things I need to do in life. For my family. For even myself maybe…”
“And those things are?”
“I want to see the world, I want to see what experiences I could have. I’ve been cooped up in a mansion most of my life, I want to see what’s out there, I want to make friends and have experiences. But more importantly, I want to find my brother, he disappeared when I was only eight…”
“Victor.”
“Yeah…”
“Hmm, I see.”
“So? What’s your choice?”
“My choice is this, I will give you a second chance, under one circumstance.”
“That being?”
“You must become my champion.”
“!!!”
“Now, before you jump to any conclusions. I am giving you this time to figure out who you are, and I am giving you this time to find your brother. But I am mostly giving you this time to train for this position. I see in you someone who is capable of being what I need in a champion, someone who is compassionate and kind, someone who can sympathize with those struggling. That’s what people need in the afterlife, they usually need someone to simply talk to.”
“…”
“So, Pandora. What is your choice?”
“…Alright. I’ll do it, and I’ll use the time I have left wisely.”
“Just remember, if you die again, you will have to stay here permanently. Understood?”
She nods.
“Well then, I suppose it is time for you to go home then, wouldn’t you agree?”
Before she could answer, everything goes black again and the sharp pain in her head is back.
She opens her eyes, she’s on the ground in the snow, just outside of her family’s home. Looking down, she sees that her nightgown is covered in blood, and so is the snow that was beneath her head.
There’s also something new.
Her hands and forearms, along with her feet and shins, are now a transparent navy blue, only her bones are showing, they shimmer almost. She feels her head, the back of her head is wet, presumably with a mix of blood and snow, but the wound is gone.
Just to be sure, she touches her forehead. It’s definitely gone.
“Pandora!!!” She hears a familiar voice call.
Looking up the stairs, she sees her mother, whose face is wet with tears.
Oh. Her family must’ve found her when she was talking to Maveth.
Her mother rushes down the stairs and hugs her tightly.
“I thought you were dead…!”
“I was… for a little bit.”
Diana pulls away, her eyes widening in realization, “Oh… your hair.”
“I know, I need to wash the blood out.”
“No no sweetie, your hair. It’s white.”
Looking down, she notices that her mother is right, her hair is blizzard white now. She looks back up at her mother, who is now wearing a sorrowful, but also strangely proud look.
“You’re the next one, aren’t you?”
She nods.
“…you know, I always wondered. I used to joke with your aunt and say he really liked you because you were always playing with and feeding the soulfetchers. How did your talk with him go?”
“He’s about what I expected him to be. He was nice enough to try and not scare me though. He seemed to like me I guess.”
“Well I’m sure he wouldn’t have chosen you if he didn’t like you, my love.”
“Yeah…” she fiddles with her hands, Diana looks at her sorrowfully.
“Come now, Pandora, it’s far too cold out here to be playing in the snow. Let’s get you inside and cleaned up, maybe a nice bowl of soup even?”
Pandora smiles
“I think I’d like that.”
