Balthazar blends with Celestial

Life, Milestone

After coming to Ariuk's aid when he saw her body in the alley, Balthazar was subjected to a scared Celestial, forcing a painful and violent blending out of despiration, leaving him severely injured and without memory of his previous unblended life.

Ghostly fog rose from the body like steam in cold air, not just from her mouth but from her skin, her face, her wound. The fog shimmered with colours as it moved flickering like the stars. It swirled with quickened pace generating more energy as it went, it moved like fish in a river. The stranger began to panic; he did not understand what was happening.   It was waiting for the ceremony, waiting for the chance to bond with another, it was waiting for the ritual that would not come. Like a scared animal the spirit began the panic. The irrational became rational, the impossible became possible, the forbidden became option. The determined Celestial jumped, as weak as it was, and latched onto the first being it could find. Such a melding was forbidden, not just as it had initiated from fear and with force, but it was a betrayal far worse to the Celestial’s fellow brethren – the chosen host was a Daemonkin. Such an abomination of both races would not be forgiven lightly.
