Set in the Overlord Universe

"Bound by the First Law of the Lesser Demons I summon you, Legion!"

The Chaos Demon, Legion, is summoned and bound in an Orb. It shall be held there for as long as the caster wishes or until the Demon has fulfilled the caster's greatest wish.
Legion can communicate with anyone bound to itself, usually the caster, and can influence their thoughts and actions. Weaker willed casters will find themselves more easily influenced.

Well, we got a book, got the first spell done, got you a familiar, so let's get you some food.

Fruit trees and some berry bushes could have fruits and some wild animals like rabbits or chickens can fill you up if we cook them and clean them. Got to see what's available first.

She puts the crab on her head and heads outside.
The land beyond the basement is completely barren..
Far away there is the Land of Abel, enclosed by a large imposing wall.


I don't think there are any berry bushes out here.

Signs of wasting, not good. We're going to have to get you on a high calorie diet soon. And either your memory is faulty, or your magic bloodline has been helping to sustain you. Probably the latter, given that you don't get sick as much now.

Puberty is the last major period of rapid development for your body. Your voice deepens a little, you get more body hair, your hips widen and your boobs grow some, and your brain physically changes. For some people with magic, they become fully capable of learning how to use it at that point.

If you aren't getting enough to eat, your puberty will not occur correctly. Another reason I needed to look at you.

>>380784

Ah, good, a crab familiar. I believe one of the powers they can grant is water breathing, though it really depends on the skill of the summoner and the bond between familiar and mage. Perhaps you should name it.

>>380793

Ah, a wasteland. Well, no country is completely isolated. There will be trade routes, caravans, people moving around. We can get food from them, if nothing else, and get a ride out of here to somewhere with better long-term prospects.

Might want to keep it simple for her. She's a hungry girl. Food first, bodily functions second. Take a look at that book and see if there is a summoning spell for food. If not, well... then we hunt.

Place may be barren, but I bet there are some creatures here and there hiding in the shade of debris. Besides, might be a few weak monsters you can kill for food and cash. Monsters always seem to have cash and cash means food.

Well other then magic that puberty thing doesn't seem all that important. Besides I have boobs. And hips, I can see them right now. Well, hip bones at least.

Also there are a 'few' carts that come by throughout the day and most go straight into the city. I could bug them I suppose.

As for the crab.. I dub thee, Mr. Crab.

"Tell me Mr. Crab, what can you do?"

She places the crab down. As soon as it touches the ground it scuttles away. After a moment it comes back with a stick.

Aww how cute.

She eats the stick

"Go get more sticks, complete your.... Whatever you were doing!"

Mr. Crab fetches more sticks and puts them in a small pile. With a click on his pincers he lights the bundle on fire. The fire sparks with an unnatural blue tint. A strong breeze passes over them but the fire still remains. Mr. Crab settles in as if saying that's about all he can do now

Well shit.

Get down on your hands and knees and grovel before her, saying you're in desperate need of help and you have no money and you'll do ANYTHING to pay her back for some food. Tell her you have a bit of talent for magic and found this book about summoning. You can call your crab over and show her that it's your familiar.

Don't show your face to her throughout this. That is probably what they're freaking out about. Heck, we can't even see your face.

Man, we just need to get our research skills on or join a community of signed Cancers, either evil or good, who gives a shit, because the world will hate you anyway.

I'd ask if there's a place or refuge for Cancer's where they can hurt people minimally while still managing to enjoy life. I mean seriously, civilization probably has gone through enough time to make something that hopefully isn't a concentration camp. Then totally ask if that refuge is a concentration camp because fuuuuuuck that. And nursing homes. No nursing homes either.

Asking that should prove to her that you mean to be good-natured and she may spare you for it. The probability that she is willing kill a good-natured rational being is about 60% near Abel's place, slightly better then what I assume is now and very much more worse then anywhere else except for Angels, sociopath's focused on preserving "good", and apparently traders.

...oh that witch did NOT pull the 'die in the fire because you cause bad things to happen' card.

Is there a speaker function on this orb? Because I have a shit ton to say to her.

First off; That's pretty bloody ballsy coming from someone hiding in the dark. Doesn't matter if your potions need to be in the dark, YOU DON'T. It's a cowardly tactic and to be fair you sound like a bumpkin of a mage.

Know what manifest destiny is? It's when bad shit happens because people think it happens. Look at this girl. Poor thing is hungry and sickly because douche nozzles like you think she's harbinger of death and disease. You know what causes diseases? Being filthy, malnourished, and generally poor living conditions. ANYONE could be become like that in her current situation. Hell, the whole 'not dying from wasting away' thing is probably WHY she is still alive and kicking. She is not the cause of the curse, it's you LOT who cause it by treating her like a monster!

That leads to numero three: The whole parent abandonment thing. You know crap about her and you drop THAT on her head?! Holy crap are you a dick! Try saying those words to some normal child and pat yourself on the back then. You don't know what she has been through and are simply making assumptions based on 'prophecy' for all we know, they wanted to protect her from dick hats like you. Besides, what would you do if people said YOUR race was a blight? Would you roll over and let yourself be burnt to ashes or would you live?

I am not even sure we should even work for such a biggot Tracey. If I had the ability to manifest a arm out of this orb I would punch that condescending racist bastard in the FACE.

Since those were merely suggestions and not commands Tracey does what she normally does when confronted with something she doesn't feel comfortable with
she runs.

She runs away and when she feels she's far enough she drops to her knees and cries.

Don't beat yourself up Tracey, that jerk knows nothing about you and likely never will. Too bad for him/her/it, because we are going to upturn FATE ITSELF to get you your happy end.
