Description

One of Enyo and Riika. They were going to be clothed but....I sort of liked it like this so...for now it'll be left as is. There's still work to be done but I'll save that for when I get to coloring XD Story of my life huh?

The pose was taken from [link] from :iconfalln-stock:'s gallery.

Enyo and Riika have a unique relationship. First I should explain a little leading up to their meeting on Enyo's side since I've already explained how Riika came to be by her side.

Enyo "died" in the war of the druids (I promise I'll do an Enyo one soon and explain all this). She faced off with the man responsible for destroying her life time and time again. In the end, Enyo knew the only way to kill this corrupted druid was to cast a spell of the gods' judgement, a spell of purity. It would destroy her enemy but sacrifice her life at the same time. They never found her body, only her scimitar jammed into the ground through her cloak.

Scarlet, Enyo's best friend and cousin refused to believe that her friend was dead. She became a knight and spent most of her time telling the story of her time with her closest friend.

After many years, Scarlet heard a rumor of a spirit wandering the lands. Some said it was evil, but the elves, especially the ones from Enyo's home town, said it was one of their own. Scarlet traveled to the forest surrounding the mountain that Enyo had died at. It had been destroyed because of the sacrificial spell. When she came to this land though, it was completely regrown, perhaps stronger and more lush than before. Not far from the very mountain the elf had died at, Scarlet found the beginnings of a small villiage. In that village was a cloaked person. Leery at first, but somehow knowing who it was, she turned the form and found her best friend smiling back at her. This land that had once been destroyed was now Enyo's realm. It was granted to her by the gods, who Scarlet found out had taken in the druid's body and left the soul to wander till they decided that the world needed the druid again. She was now an extension of the earth, a living goddess. Here she would take in those like her, those who had been forgotten because of whatever tragedy they had come across.

Riika had come to her because of the betrayal of her sisters. When Riika's sisters had tried to kill her, Enyo and those who were already under her care came to her aid. Enyo healed the wounds as best as she could and granted Riika with an ability she called spirit sight that would allow the drow to see where her eyes no longer could.

Scarlet couldn't stay in Enyo's lands. She had her own responsibilities, her own family she had to tend to. Riika filled the void that Scarlet had left in Enyo's life. Both trusted the other with their lives and eventually grew so close that others swore they were reading each others thoughts. Enyo was the family that Riika never had but had always longed for and Riika was the one indestructable soul that couldn't be taken from her like Scarlet had been in her life.
