Cylus 20, 719
Choby was a happy, go lucky young man. He still lived at home with his parents. His mother was a local baker, his father ran a courier business. This was the same business Choby joined when he came of age. And he loved it. It let him run all over Rharne and he was such a charming boy that he often got tips. Sometimes this was coin, sometimes it was a pie, sometimes it was a new pair of socks.
And it was this job that let Choby meet a young lady. Sybil. Sybil was a lovely young lass. She helped her mother run a flower shop. She was nice, she often brought fresh, donated flowers to the Order of Adunih so that the place looked lively each and every single day. The pair were in love. Though Choby hadn't yet asked, they both knew they were destined to be wed.
And it was that drive that pushed Choby to take a job that was normally given to one of the older, more experienced couriers. He accepted the job that would take him to Faith's house, down by Lake Lovalus. Most people would assume it was a normal job, just like any other, and most people would be right. The majority of days, delivering a letter or package to the Augustin residence was a walk in the park.
But that wasn't every day. It certainly wasn't this day. Choby was carrying a letter for Faith. And he was walking toward the property. He slipped through the gate, heading for the front door. It was still early, for Choby wanted to get this one done, so he could meet Sybil for breakfast. He even spent extra on this fancy smoked butter to go with the biscuits. He was whistling a tune, not seeing the huntress that was sitting beneath the window, next to the bushes.
Qit'ria came out here while Caza was still sleeping sometimes. She'd been feeling her hands shake when she looked at the little girl for too long. Her mind kept focusing on that last image in her mind before she died. She saw her daughter, being surrounded by those undead that she destroyed. Qit died, but she knew that all the undead weren't destroyed when she died. So what stopped them from getting to Caza and Faith?
She saw Choby approach the door and knock on it. She didn't know him. Didn't know why there'd be a stranger on the property. Her eyes grew wide. He was here for Caza. She rushed over to him, to shove him out of the way of the doorway, to yell and and attack him. But as she pushed, her hands disappeared into his back, and she fell into him.
And suddenly, she was him. She could feel things again. She could feel a heart beating blood through her chest. She was... alive. Her eyes grew wide and smiled broad. She saw the package in her manly hands. She looked back at the door, and knocked against it again. Deliver this, then try out this new body.
Note
I will leave this open to any person living in the Augustin Residence for 1 week. If no one joins in that time, I'll solo it out.
