A calling
Posted: Sun Dec 18, 2016 7:59 pm
I have a thing about reading; I love learning about different spirits and such, and in do so, I also love reading different descriptions of spirits on many different conjurer's websites, and on the forums. But recently, I have read through most of the ones on Mackical Menagerie; and so kept going through all of them and decided to read over the demonics; again, because I have a thing about learning about different beings.
I never had any intention about getting a demon, but just scrolling through and reading, I felt a bit off. Well I guess not "off" in a negative sense, but the feeling of being called; which kind of confused me. I myself am a more neutral person in my mind, but I have always been iffy on the subject of Black Arts, namely thinking that they are mostly bad and what not; I would maybe consider an exceedingly Dark Arts companion, but I am not one for hurting others; in fact, it is specifically said in my house rules that I would never wish harm upon someone for any reason, no matter what. I have strong moral standards based on karma, and so I do uphold this rule very strongly. Also, being that most demonics are Black Arts, or at least to the point of them actually being able to be bound to humans, I always thought that they would make problems for those around them. I mean, for those skilled in demonics by all means, if you know how to deal with them, and that's your area of expertise then go for it; I respect and admire that. But again, back to this feeling. I had gone through some of the postings, matter of fact all of them, and had picked some out that felt a bit stronger than others, but not exactly what I was looking for.
I felt like they were dark, not exactly black arts, but really dark. I thought it was a demon; but again, what would a demon want with me. My family is a bit odd, its small too; which means that I take a lot of thought as to who becomes a new member. So I went searching; I was familiar with Lilith, and I knew that she was loved by many people and was very much respected, so I asked her if someone was calling me.
And behold, apparently there was; and I was apparently right as well, it was a demon, but not exactly. A demon dragon; very strong and dark; but here was the catch. My main concern about a demon not upholding house rules, and or harming people without my consent, was mentioned:
He specifically said that he would follow my rules, and never go against my will.
Okay, that's nice; and then the next part:
He has no desire to hurt humans or me.
But my main thought was, that he was concerned with my protection. This struck me as odd, for I had actually thought that the only other spirit, besides my Kitsune that I would be getting; would be a guardian.
This is, without a doubt, a favorable situation; except being that he is an entity. I have another entity companion, that I have seen and felt a few times, so I have a generic idea as to what they are like, and have seen no objections as to how my family feels about him, so I do think that accepting him into my family would be a good idea. But being that I have never had something so dark, which I do have Dark Arts, but nothing on a demonic level, I would still like input from people more experienced in this are.
He really does seem almost too good to be true; and I trust Lilith, and oddly enough, I feel like I trust him too. I don't feel any hesitation towards him, but I do need preparation; after all, research is very important.
