Osseth's altered form reference has been completed!

[askvekpa]

(@watchful-lady-of-shadows) “Aw, your little one is quite sweet!” Osseth said to Amalthea, a smile on her face. “It is nice to see others treat Necrozma who have lost their light with the kindness they deserve. In my home realm, we have specific temples made for restoring injured Necrozma. I understand that they can be dangerous, but treating them like monsters or parasites… it always rubs me the wrong way. They deserve help and respect just as much as any other creature.”

“In any case, I’d love to hear more about what it’s like to care for Cipher! I am also curious as to how you were given this duty, if you don’t mind sharing of course.”

It’s rare for non Ultra Space beings to hold Necrozma in such high regard, so I thank you for your kind words!

In our universe, Cosmog that grow up to be Lunala and Solagleo are eligible to be selected to help safeguard Necrozma. Only one Necrozma can exist in Ultra Space, as it disrupts the natural balance otherwise.

Being Necrozma’s shepherd is the highest honor for our kind! Vekpa was initially chosen but decided to shirk his duty and vanished centuries ago.

And that is why I was selected to watch Cipher.

Cipher is a special case… not only are they missing their light, but also their other half… It seems to believe that this other half is here on Earth, so here we are!

(@watchful-lady-of-shadows) “You speak of your family name as if they are well known.” Osseth began, having noted the hybrids words from earlier, “Out of curiosity, who are your family, and what is it they do to gain such recognition?” She paused for a moment before adding on. “And, why is it that ghost types are viewed negatively?”

[ @watchful-lady-of-shadows ]

[ ID: A grayscale drawing of Shauna smiling with a ":3" face with clear distress. She's shown from the shins up and directly facing the viewer. Shauna's appearance is as described here. End ID ]

Shauna: "...!!"

She slowed down upon spotting Osseth. She recognized this Pokemon from old stories that were passed along in the Hestia family.

Beware of the serpent that lives in shadow. It cares not for mortals. As it pleases, it tears apart mind and spirit.

Supposedly, such a Pokemon was so dangerous, it needed to be sealed away.

[ ID: A grayscale drawing of Shauna similar to the previous image. She's frowning slightly, looking somewhat wary. End ID ]

Shauna: "?"

But having been staring at Osseth for a while, she didn't pick up such malice at all. She looked more friendly than scary; rather, not scary at all.

Her shock and hint of fear gave way quickly to curiosity, barely. Then she remembered that Osseth was asking her something.

Shauna: "Oh!"

[ ID: A grayscale drawing of Shauna smiling with her eyes closed but with a strained expression, and holding the note in question. She's shown from the shins up and directly facing the viewer. Shauna's appearance is as described here. End ID ]

That said, she was still a little timid. Just a little.

Shauna: [We have the largest noble house in all the Isle. We study magic, and teach it to those that wanna learn. But our noble house is very, very strict. Only the best of the best get to be one of us.]

Then, a pause. Her previous, almost proud demeanor shifted immediately, into something that vaguely read as resentment.

[ ID: A grayscale drawing of Shauna similar to the previous image. She's looking to the left with a small frown and holding the note in question. End ID ]

Shauna: [In our family, we use them as familiars for help with doing tasks. Because ghosts constantly hunger for energy, and we get more than enough to share that energy from our patron deity, Hestia, they get to have as much as they want only when they do what we say.]

Shauna: [We're not really supposed to talk to familiars. But mom did.]

(@watchful-lady-of-shadows) “A champion rank trainer? That means you’re pretty strong, right?” Osseth asked Shinji, carefully settling on the ground in her altered form. Granted, she didn’t know much about what it is trainers did, but she did know this much! “What pokemon work alongside you to achieve this rank? I know you need at least six, but I’ve heard some like to switch up their teams.”

@eeveelutiontwos

Shinji, who had stepped inside to get a drink, did a double-take. It took everything in his power to swallow the drink he had in his mouth and not choke or spit it out.

Gi-Giratina?! And a mewtwo?! B-But how?!

Pon: They've heard how strong you are Shin! Maybe they want to battle! They asked to see Lue and the others!

Shin: B-Battle?! Ermahem! O-Ok! I'll s-show you my team..

The trainer cracks the door open and shouts.

H-Hey guys! Come out here real quick!

Soon after a Lucario, Zoroark, Furret, Hydrapple, Clodsire, and Quaquaval come out, all of which stand flabbergasted upon noticing the pair of legends.

Shinji's Team Are Open For Asks

[pmd-waveringfate]

(@watchful-lady-of-shadows) “Hello there!” Osseth called to Vesta, landing lightly on the ground as her six legs took shape, “I was just a bit curious, the mew of my home realm aids us in creating varied life for our realm. Do you have such a role here as well, or do you prefer living away from such divine duties? I would not blame you if that were the case.”

The hybrid gazed at the giratina for a moment before looking down, her expression saddened.

Oh, how I wish I could take a break...Unfortunately, someone with my abilities can't take a break, no matter how much I want to...I...I had to learn the hard way... As for my duties, I did help create the world alongside Arceus. I also helped care for him when he was hatched. That was in the past however my main goal right now is making sure the prophecy comes to fruition.

The prophecy...I suppose someone was bound to ask. Well, it goes like this...

"There will come a day when the world's fate will be decided by four: the last member of a long-forgotten clan, a bastard child wielding stolen power, a human with hidden potential turned Pokemon, and a guardian who watches over them all. The guardian must guide and mentor the human and clan member until they are ready to face the bastard child in combat, only one side will survive. That side will either save the world or destroy it."

This prophecy has been stated long before Phil and Okko, and now it's time fo-

BOOM

The explosion startled the hybrid, causing her fur to stand on end.

T-That explosion...I have to go!

Without another word Vesta teleports.

Asks are now closed momentarily.

Oh dear, despite her long life, Osseth really had little to no experience with eggs. Most of her days were spent roaming her Void and maintaining her realm, not looking after eggs!

Still, perhaps she could offer some comfort and suggestions?

"There should be time after the egg hatches to collect specific needs depending on species, that is true, but perhaps you could gather more general items beforehand?"

"I am not the most knowledgeable on eggs myself, but considering you live in a city there should be ways to gather such information, like a library, correct? Perhaps it would be a good idea to visit and see what is needed for a child to grow healthy."

She paused, thinking for a moment before tentatively saying, "Raising a child would be easier with the help of others. Is there no one you know who could help you?"

(@watchful-lady-of-shadows) Osseth had tried to fit in front of the camera, she really did! But it seemed no matter when she tried the camera and device it was attached to just couldn't capture her full form. Dismayed but not beaten, she decided to just stick her large head in front of it as much as possible. All the Sableye would see is her large snout and parts of her silver plates, but it would have to do.

“Hello!” she greeted with a chirp. “It’s been quite some time since I’ve spoken to mortal pokemon of other realms! I see you are taking care of an egg. I do hope the little one is well! I must ask, however, how is it you plan to care for the little one? Have you gathered the general materials necessary to care for a child?”

OF COURSE I HAVE! I GATHER FOOD FOR MYSELF EVERY DAY, I'VE GOT A NICE SAFE SHELTER, WHAT MORE COULD THEY NEED?

[Conny's smile drops into a face of contemplation, quickly turning to something of horror as he glances around at the dumpster he lives in.]

...

ACTUALLY... NOW THAT I THINK ABOUT IT...

I. MAYBE. AM. LACKING. IN THINGS. THAT I SHOULD. HAVE. GOTTEN. MAYBE. JUST A LITTLE. I...

DON'T KNOW WHAT JUNIOR'S GOING TO HATCH INTO. I DON'T REALLY KNOW WHAT. EXACTLY. THEY NEED.

BUT I'M SURE I'LL HAVE PLENTY OF TIME AFTER THEY HATCH TO GET EVERYTHING THEY COULD POSSIBLY NEED!!!!

... right?

[worldtree-pokemons]

(@watchful-lady-of-shadows) Osseth gave a small bow in greeting, a kind yet slightly sheepish smile on her face, “Greetings, and apologies for the sudden entrance. You see, I enjoy observing different realms and comparing them to my own home. During my wanderings, I stumbled upon the portal left open by your companion. I’d worried something dire had occurred, but I am happy to see that is not the case.”

“I understand if you wish I leave, however, if you would permit me, I would love to learn more about you and your world!”

"... You, you're just like-..."

While usually in constant motion, the giratina's tendrils froze up the moment Osseth slithered through, his expression changed little, but his tone betrays his shock. She was almost the same, save for the colors and, more importantly, her tail wasn't miles long and free as the air.

"So it was true, just as the king said: infinite possibilities."

"You may stay, but I can not ensure that the others will welcome you as much as I do."

[singularity-and-co]

(@watchful-lady-of-shadows) Gently, silently, Osseth slithered forward through this foreign void. She’d explored many places, but this one was new to her. Even her reverse world had certain structures, sparse as they may be. It was so silent and empty. It unnerved her.

When she stumbled upon the injured Giratina, it startled her greatly. It was rare she’d seen injuries so bad, and while she could understand if it was from performing divine duties, this place seemed to be one where gods rested, at least in this realm. It was this strangeness that prompted her to approach Singularity.

“Hello?” She called as gently as she could, trying not to appear aggressive as most of their kind were. “I do apologize for intruding, but I wanted to see if you were alright. I didn’t sense any foreign entity entering here, but then again this is not my home… Was this horrible injury done by another being of creation?” The thought was almost incomprehensible to her. She and her family were so close, but she knew that not all realms were like hers. She hoped it was not the case, but she couldn't deny the possibility either.

Singularity: I’m sure my form will knit itself back together soon. No need to worry haha.

*You can see the Giratina wincing in pain as he puts his hand towards the mangled half of his face.*

[watchful-lady-of-shadows]

Behold, legs!

[ask-the-diamond-kingdom]

(@watchful-lady-of-shadows) “Hello there, and sorry for the scare!” Osseth said to the three young mons, waving a tendril in greeting, “It’s been a while since I’ve visited a realm such as this one, and out of curiosity I wanted to pop in and check it out! If you don’t mind me asking, what is this community you currently reside in? Does it have a name?”

"A Giratina...woah. Is that what Aip was talking about when it came to Gods coming over....this is so soon," Haruto had the biggest grin on his face as he gaze up at Osseth. "I feel you and Az would get along..."

In the midst of his muttering, Haruto was brought out of his thought by the light squeezing of his hand by Finn. He gently pulled his brother behind him and smiled. "My brother already stated it....but I can go into better details about our location! We're in the Shiororis country! It's a very snowy country as you notice! Can't say I'm too much of a fan of it, given my type and all."

Haruto huffed. "Common Gods that tend to be worshipped here are the Natural Merits with Kyurem, Reshiram and Zekrom being the most prominent. We're currently in the Village of Veritas. The people here worship Reshiram! The Pokemon here are really nice. I was really nervous at first...since well...I don't have the BEST experience when it comes to villages."

The sequel to this. He got a giant slice of cake in the end!

@office-pokemons

[watchful-lady-of-shadows]

At the comment about their differing sizes, Osseth became a bit sheepish, "Ah, apologies. Most of my time is spent with others around my size, so I had forgotten how large I am in comparison to others. I do in fact posses the ability to shape shift! One moment please."

With that, her large body was encased in dark, liquid shadow, which begun to shrink quickly. After a moment, the shadow solidified once more, revealing her new form.

"Now it should be much easier and more comfortable for us to speak!" Osseth said with a smile, body held aloft on feathery wings.

"Now, about this realm! What a fascinating story, and a very effective solution. With how temperamental and territorial some gods can be, gifting each their own realm is practically guaranteed to make everyone satisfied. It sounds like the Arceus of your realm is quite lovely!"

"It's also very interesting to hear about your duties. You clearly play a very important role here, and from what I've seen you've done an amazing job! I am also glad to hear that you have plenty of time for rest too, taking breaks is always important, no matter what some may say."

At the explanation on Lunala and Solgaleo, Osseth nodded with a slight chuckle, "Well, it seems like our realms have something in common, at least slightly! For us, all Lunala and Solgaleo originate from two who are divine, the first of their species. They play an important role in protecting the cycles of day and night, and there is a great diversity in their duties. Oh, how lovely to hear about the differences and similarities we share!"

(@watchful-lady-of-shadows) ”Greetings, and apologies for the sudden visit.” Osseth said (currently in her origin form), giving the Jirachi a gentle smile and nod in greeting, “I enjoy exploring different realms when given the chance, and was very curious about this one! It is always fascinating to see how legends differ across realms."

"If it’s possible, I would love to hear more about this place and your role within it! My home realm has no Jirachi, though we do have plenty of Lunala and Solgaleo roaming the different spaces that compose it. From the sound of things, however, that is not the case for you.”

Being met with calm and politeness, the Jirachi slightly perked up from the sluggish posture; all they saw was a big serpent presented infront of the small desk, giving few good blinks and not showing much fear thanks to the gentle attitude she tilted her head

Being polite in return, she flew right back up, trying to catch up with the height of the giratina so they could talk eye to eye(?)

They gave a big yawn and stretch when saying it but then they cleared their throat quickly now.

"This place, or well...realm, was gifted to us by Arceus herself. It was given during the so-called God War, where all the main gods we have here started to have arguments and disagreements about land and space, which started to turn into violent acts, insults, anything to steer each other into big conflicts. You might ask why Arceus let this happen in the first place; well, she was in slumber regaining her power from creating life, humans, and other fellow gods." she streached out in small thought again, floating in air calmly, her hand time to time reaching out to her ribbons to fidget with them

"I had multiple roles as Rising moon wished to trust only one lesser-god she might have made herself; I took up role of a peacemaker, a messenger and kept tracks of Moon's duties when needed, or just simply brought the weaker creatures their last wishes true..." She paused at last, falling quiet for a moment before just shaking her head as she quickly straightened out

Now all I gotta do is keep track of her duties and attendances at meetings, which I dont mind; I get plenty of centuries of rest." she chuckled to herself before continuing, "They are trying now their ebst to make it up to us and make our lives easier while still trying to keep us busy so we dont lose our minds by doing nothing."

"Hm anyway..." she took a small breather before continuing, "We do have other Lunalas here but only them, Eternal Day has Solgaleos; they act as cosmic guards; they are keeping threats away to enter either our realms or the earth's surface. They dont have the same power as Rising Moon but they are powerful enough."

toot!

[watchful-lady-of-shadows]

”I am curious..you look very much like a giratina ,yet so different ,may I ask why?”- @askatimegod

"Ah, greetings! I understand that my appearance varies from the standard quite a bit, so your confusion is understandable. There is a reason for this however!"

"I have previously mentioned Divine Epithets, however what I did not mention is that me and my siblings also have these epithets! Mine is 'Star-veiled' while Kuiper and Parcae are 'Moon-Veiled' and 'Sun-Veiled' respectively. These titles reflect on our appearance and our domains."

[watchful-lady-of-shadows]

[ @ask-valiant-victory ] Valiant @ Osseth: "Star-veiled? That sounds quite silly!" The fox happily smiled at her, his voice was as cheerful as ever but it was clear he had not a single clue what she was talking about. "You know you look quite ordinary for the offspring of something so monstrous and horrifying! Are you sure you and that THING are related?" He seemed to put an unusual amount of emphasis on the word as he spoke, "Perhaps this is some kind of disguise to hide your true nature? Surely you must be equally grotesque!!"

Osseth was a bit conflicted. The words, while undoubtedly rude and crass, did not seem to hold any real malice behind them. Was this way of speaking simply normal in this pokemon's realm? Were their creation trio and Arceus more forces of nature then living thing?

Though she wasn't a fan of him calling her parent a thing, she decided to er on the side of caution and politeness, answering the question with perhaps more gentleness then deserved, "You are partially right. This form is not a disguise, it is a true representation and expression of myself, however it is not my 'original form', to put it one way."

"While I personally wouldn't use the word 'grotesque', I do understand that my Abou is strange in comparison to what an Arceus usually looks like. Me and my siblings do look similarly strange, as that is our nature."

She paused for a second before carefully speaking again, "...I say this at the risk of sounding incredibly ignorant. While I understand realms may vary vastly from one another, I do implore you to be a bit more careful with your words. Your manner of speech may come across as a bit... rude and crass."

"I am very happy you like the gift!" Osseth said, thrilled. She wasn't the biggest tea drinker herself, but her brother was quite fond of it. When she mentioned she'd be visiting someone who enjoyed it like he did, he had all but demanded she take the best, highest quality blend he had. She was happy to see it had paid off!

"As for what I want to discuss, I was wondering if you could tell me more about your home here, if that is alright with you. What is considered common for you is something alien to me, and I would love to hear more about this vast realm you live in." She explained "Truly, I'd love to listen to whatever you have to say, whether it be about terrain, places, or people. This land is bursting with variety and life!"

(@watchful-lady-of-shadows) Osseth, in her altered form, approached Wo with a smile, a small wooden box held in one of her wings, “Hello, please pardon the sudden visit. It had been a moment and I wanted to visit again! Before, we’d spoken about chatting over some tea, and as a small gift I have brought some from my home here for you and your family to try. If you have the time now I’d love to chat more, however if you’re busy I understand. Either way, I hope you enjoy this gift!” She offered the box for Wo to take.

Wo was quick to acknowledge the presence of Osseth, going over to her upon seeing her outside Grasswither.

Wo: "Hello again! Please don't be afraid of repeated visits - I appreciate every time you choose to do so~!"

He looked at what was given to him, opening the box to see what was inside. His eye widened a little.

Wo: "Your present is very nice, my friend~ I shall make sure that everyone gets to try it, and I'll also save some to share with visitors too~"

He put it onto a free space on the trinket bookshelf.

Wo: (he turned to see the Giratina) "I am not that busy today, so I am free to talk. What do you wish to discuss, my friend?"
