"Don't.."
He starts and looks at her, the raven letting out another sharp sound as it flies over and lands on the back of the couch, tilting it's head at her. Elias turns around, though he doesn't swipe at it as it jumps down onto Eva's shoulder, letting out a low warble.

Turning her head to look at it, Eva stiffens when it moves to her shoulder, starts falling over into Elias as her eyes glow with light, unmoving as creamy wings start forming behind her near her spine, headress with different colored feathers gold beads and two circle pieces of leather stamped with a Celtic knot adorning her hair

Elias stiffens at the sight of wings that looked like an angel's, and when the headdress shows he falls still, immediately recognizing what they were. His eyes move to the raven, who hopes down onto the couch with a ruffle of feathers and a caw, training a keen eye on the demon to see what his next reaction would be. Slowly, Eli turns and sits Eva back up, gaze moving slowly to her, suddenly wary. "Sparrow?" he asks quietly.

"Sparrow?"
Unresponsive for a few seconds after the glow fades, Eva suddenly gasps for air and jolts forward, right hand clutching at her chest, eyes wide as she coughs, left hand pressed to her head "Ow.." she whispers, voice cracking

"Ow.."
He leans back a little, eyes still wary as he studies her, and again he says, "Sparrow? Are you...okay?"

"Sparrow? Are you...okay?"
"My head.." Eva whispers, inhaling shakily as she starts to straighten "And my back. Wha-" words failing on her tongue, her eyes widen as they find the wings on her back, trembles "Elias?..."

"My head.. And my back. Wha- Elias?..."
"You're okay," he attempts to reassure, looking to the raven for answers. Though the creature only tilts its head at him. "But I don't know what's going on."

"You're okay. But I don't know what's going on."
"I don't understand." Eva whispers, voice cracking, tears pricking her eyes as panic starts to kick in "What am I? Why do I have wings.."

"I don't understand. What am I? Why do I have wings.."
He looks at her, his attention solely on trying to calm her down, so much so he misses the Raven leaping into the air. "Breathe. There's nothing to panic over." He swallows. "At least not yet. it looks like... An angel."
"A Valkyrie, to be more precise," murmurs a voice, the Raven shifting into a black-haired guy who stood with his hands in his pockets. "So relax, demon. The gods didn't just trick you to bring you to your end."
Elias's head whipped around quickly to the young man that stood near him, gaze sharpening as he put himself between Eva and the raven.
"And for bloody sake, I'm not going to harm her, either," he grumbles, rolling his eyes. "I'm a guide, not a threat, so put your fangs away."

"Not yet?... Your end?.." Eva whispers, voice cracking more before she scrambles back over the couch when the brid turns into a man, eyes wide as she starts to fall before she looks around wildly, wings keeping her off the floor, beating slowly, hovering near the ceiling

"Relax," the raven tells her, looking at her with rosy-red eyes. "Panicking won't do you any good-- just breath, settle down, and I'll try to explain."
"My end?" Elias echoes, and the raven turns back to him.
"It was only an expression. I know you and the angels aren't on the best of terms," he answers.
Elias looks to Eva as he stands, holding out a hand. "Sparrow."

"It was only an expression. I know you and the angels aren't on the best of terms,"
"Sparrow."
"Even if I was an angel, we would make it work, right?..." Eva whispers, trying to calm as she takes Elias's hand, slowly drifting back down to the floor, terror still in the back of her gaze "Um... What is a Valkyrie?"

"Even if I was an angel, we would make it work, right?... Um... What is a Valkyrie?"
"Of course," he says quietly, giving her hand a squeeze, then looks to the raven.
"A warrior and a chooser of fate," he starts. "The norse mythology revolved around Valkyries in battle, and those maidens would choose who would live and who would die in battle, and lead them to Valhalla. Course, that was thousands of years ago. Now, they've gained a slightly different purpose as they adjusted to the world around them. I'm sure you've seen the shadows by now, haven't you?"

"I have..." Eva whispers quietly, eyes wavering "I had someone protecting me, up until a few days ago. But she.." voice faltering, she presses her forehead to Elias's shoulder, inhaling shakily as she speaks to the raven boy "Why now?.."

"I have... I had someone protecting me, up until a few days ago. But she.. Why now?.."
"More than likely because your guardian has left you," he replies. "I was pulled here just a few days ago, sent to find you. But those wraiths are the fallen souls from the wars that have been waging on for centuries now, mainly blood shed by angels and demons alike." He looks at Elias, whose jaw ticks as he looks away.
