A Prophecy of Tainted Silver Ch. 03

Corbas walked up to Chrsiti and, despite his still-embarrassed state, managed to squeak a quiet "yes."

"That's what I thought," Christi said, "Mels, cover our rear, I'll take the front with Corbas. We have to be prepared for anything."

Mels nodded, unsheathing his sword, and took position behind Ezzi, who was followed by Vai.

"Everyone, stay close!" Christi commanded, and they continued down the hall.

The party traveled through the ruined manor. Mels kept his head on a swivel, closely evaluating every possible danger. The house, according to its condition, was filled with all sorts of trinkets and curios. The halls were lined with rusting suits of armor, which were surely ancient, as they were unrecognizable to Mels. Though to call them "suits" was a bit misleading, as they were seemingly designed to only cover the naughty bits of either men or women. Lewd paintings and tapestries followed a similar theme, depicting humans engaged in acts similar to what happened to Corbas at the landing.

And the lewd whispers of before did not stop, subtly tempting him with promises of pleasure. As he surveilled around, he also kept an eye on Christi, her golden hair falling down her back, obscuring her cape. Walking with her staff, even from behind she presented an image of confidence and power. Mels couldn't help but admire how well she had adapted to her promotion. He thought back on the past year, all her training and preparation, a fierce determination he's ever seen from her, even before he joined the House.

Of course she doesn't hear the voices, he thought dejectedly. It was hard not to compare his station to hers, and if he'd ever reach that point. He shook his head of his thoughts, and returned to his surveillance, only to look down to see Ezzi smiling up at him.

"Mels, can I tell you something?" she whispered to him.

"Yes, but you don't have to be quiet," he responded, though he found himself watching his volume as well. They had just entered a large, sitting room, complete with an immense, stone fireplace. Opposite was a destroyed wall that seemed to lead to an outdoor courtyard. Above the entrance to the sitting room, Mels had seen a large tapestry depicting, of course, a lively orgy in a glistening hot spring.

"I just want to say that I think it's sooo sweet you care about Corbas," she said.

"Oh, thanks," he said with uncertainty.

"In fact, its almost like you can't help it," she said with a knowing smile. Though Mels thought she was too honest to be hiding any great secret about the holstaur - or herself for that matter - it did make him wonder.

"Mels!" Christi shouted, facing the group. "Above you!"

He turned and looked up back at the tapestry, to find the occupants within now moving.

And fucking. A lot.

"Ooooh!" Ezzi said, wiggling her hips back and forth. "You know Vai, we have a few paintings like that, you think there's a spell to make it move too? That would be sooo-"

Ezzi squealed when she was picked up and moved by Mels, as a nude woman landed in the spot Ezzi once stood. Looking up, he saw a vacant spot in the middle of the party of flesh.

Before any of them could react to the woman, she moaned loudly as if orgasming, and then turned to dust, settling onto the floor. The room then fell into an uncomfortable silence.

Mels, still holding Ezzi, looked up. "Christi?"

"Mels, watch out!"

From the same spot, a pale ball of flesh burst from under the floor. It expanded rapidly, turning into an enlarging bundle of arms and legs.

And it was moaning. Loudly.

"CHRISTI!" Mels shouted.

Don't get pulled in! he heard in his mind as arms tried to grab at him and the kobold. He struggled to wield his sword against the rising tide of flesh as Ezzi wriggled in fear in his arms. They both backed into the hallway entrance as the debauched wall of intertwined bodies grew large enough to reach the ceiling. Moaning and squirming, the pile of flesh bulged against the entrance, causing the wood to creak and strain. Mels put Ezzi down, who was at this point, more fascinated than afraid, taking his sword in both hands. Against the faceless orgy, he did not know what he could do, as the wanton voices in his mind grew even louder, but he remained stalwart.

The wood of the entrance moaned against the weight of the trap, but it held, and eventually, it grew silent. Aside from, of course, the lewd slapping and moaning of the amalgamation of fucking bodies before them. The pungent smell of musk was even worse, intense enough to invade every breath.

"This is insane!" Ezzi said, staying close to Mels. "What do we do?"

"I..." Mels stuttered, struggling to maintain his well of holy magic within him. "I-I think we'll just have to find a way around."

"Okay, okay," Ezzi said shakily as they turned towards the hallway. Mels concentrated as they made their way through the halls, leaving the fleshy trap behind.

Christi, are you alright? He thought, trying to listen for her voice. Moments passed, and he received no response. His stomach began to tighten. Christi?!

***

The silver mage stepped back into the exit to the inner courtyard, which she had opened with her magic as the orgy expanded before her. With one arm she protected Corbas, who had Vai on his back, and with the other she wielded her staff against the trap of flesh. Its growth was such that it braced against the walls and ceiling, crushing the ruined furniture underneath it. It bulged as it pushed against the wooden constraints of the room, and it even began to pour out

"Is that thing going to expand for forever?!" Vai yelled over the moaning. Needless to say, Corbas was shaking in silent terror.

"Not if I stop it!" Christi responded, "stand back!"

Corbas obeyed as she took a stance on the stone path. She strained as holy magic burned through her body like lava flow. Taking on the utter onslaught of corruption was akin trying to part a oncoming tsunami. The effort was enough to make her sweat, but she stood fast as she countered the demonic spell.

Vai and Corbas witnessed her feat in the form of a ball of light coming from her staff, growing ever brighter. Within the sitting room, the wall of flesh bulged and pulsed like a beating heart until, finally, it settled and stopped growing. What was left after the struggle was a sitting room completely filled by the orgy, and Christi wobbling on her feet as she took deep breaths.

"Are you... alright?" she managed between gasps, turning to Corbas and Vai.

They both nodded. "Are you?" Corbas asked meekly.

Christi responded with gasps, planting her staff and leaning on it as she knelt. "I just need a moment of rest," she said to the ground. "That was one of the most powerful Corruptive spells I've ever encountered." A small voice in her head reminded her that she'd only been a mage for a few days. "The library here might not be worth it." She closed her eyes as her brain pounded in her skull. The stress prevented her from reaching out to Mels on the other side of the wall of flesh. Fear gripped her as she could only hope that he and Ezzi were safe.

The feeling of helplessness bubbled up in her like bile, but she choked it down. She had to keep him safe. I have to.

Christi lifted her head to see Vai and Corbas looking down at her apologetically. They looked at each other and nodded in silent agreement.

Vai leaped off of Corbas' back to offer her a hand. "Then, let's find the others and regr- AAAHH!"

"Vai?!" Christi said as the kobold was pulled away from her. In an instant, she was dragged by an unseen force into the overgrown garden of the courtyard.

"VAI!" Corbas shouted. Before Christi could react, he galloped into the shrubbery after her.

"CORBAS, WAIT!" Christi shouted, but he was already gone. She groaned as she stood on wobbling legs, fighting through her exhaustion as she jogged into the garden. She pushed past the overgrown plants, trying her damndest to listen for them. She used her staff as a walking stick as she searched for her party members.

"CORBAS! VAI!" she called out for them. In the thick of the garden, the overgrowth and the cover of night made it seem she was deep in an exotic jungle. She wanted to continue on but her fatigue forced her to lean against the tree to catch her breath. She tried to listen for Corbas and Vai, but all she heard was the ambience of the garden, masking the possibility for another sexy trap.

She wanted to continue, she had to. But her body was completely depleted. That feeling of helplessness crept back to her again.

I have to keep them safe, she thought as she began to black out.

But it's sooo hard sometimes, right?

Christi lifted her head, thoroughly confused as she heard another voice in her head. She looked around, still seeing nothing but the garden.

Hmph! A mage for a week and you, like, already forgot about me?

The voice's ditziness, it hit her like a flying rock.

Crystal?

Ding ding ding! It's meeeee!

Somehow, she was energized hearing her own air-headed voice speak to her.

Crystal, she thought, still leaning against the tree. I-I'm sorry I haven't spoken in a while.

It's okay! Even though I literally live in your head so you have no excuse, I forgive you! You've, like, been through so much recently. For instance, how could you let those two bitches fuck Melsie-poo like that?! Now they won't stop making fun of him!

Christi tried to think over Crystal's inane ramblings. They should be in sync, effortlessly swapping places. But she's now referring to Christi in the third person. Had she been suppressing her?

OMG, you're right!

Huh?

I have been, like, totes suppressed or whatever! And my ramblings aren't... that word you called them!

We're not in sync anymore.

Christi sighed as she slid down onto the ground, laying her head against the tree. Another thing to deal with.

Hey! Meanie!

Crystal! Just, let me think! We still need to find the others.

Left in silence, she closed her eyes, trying to formulate a plan. Looking up into the night sky through the garden's canopy, her ears were still filled with the alluring ambiance of the garden.

And nothing else.

A realization hit her as she stood up.

Crystal!

Yeah?

I need you to take over for me.

Crystal was stunned into silence, allowing Christi to explain.

You don't hear any voices do you?

You mean other than yours? Nu-uh.

Okay. I don't know what it is, but since you are the corrupted version of me, whatever force that's trying to corrupt me feeds into you, weakening me, but making you stronger. Usually, this place would smother holy magic, but with you, I've unintentionally been building a separate well of magic!

Christi's enthusiasm was met with silence.

Huh?

Christi sighed. Look, I think I need to be gone for a while in order to build up my magic again. In the meantime, take over my body, and do what you do best.

Another silent pause.

I'm referring to fucking, Crystal.

Ooooh okay! Let's do it then! And this will save Melsie?

Absolutely.

Alright, I'm ready!

Christi closed her eyes in meditation, as she felt as if she were falling asleep. The noises of the garden fell away.

Christi?

Yes, Crystal?

I'm sorry for calling you a meanie.

It's okay, Crystal.

***

Crystal opened her purple eyes. Looking around her, she tilted her head, entranced by the exotic plants of the garden.

"Okay, let's find Corbas and Vai!" she said to herself, twirled her staff, and stepped forward, only to stop and look down at herself.

"Hmm, I'm not used to tits this small," voicing her thoughts. She concentrated as magic flowed through her from her staff into her body. She opened one eye to watch as her bust inflated slowly and her hips grew wider. Looking down further and turning around, she giggled as she felt her ass grow against her shorts and her thighs plumped. She stopped when each breast went from handfuls to as big as her head, and her waist inched past her shoulders.

"That's better!" she said gleefully, and pranced farther into the garden, causing her curves to jiggle delightfully.

She bounded forward, aimlessly for a few moments, before stopping in a clearing. Her heels clacked on a stone path. In the center was an ornate, marble bird bath, now covered in vines and moss. Oddly, there was still water in the bowl, perfectly clear, and glistening in the moonlight. It almost seemed drinkable

She was almost distracted by the water, but an unnatural wave of warmth ran through her that, paradoxically, caused her to shiver. Immediately, she raised her staff in both hands, looking around in the surrounding foliage.

"I know you're here, you big meanie!" she shouted into the air. Her whipping around nearly caused her bust to bounce out of her top. "Come out, and release my friends!"

The foliage and plants shuffled in response, causing Crystal to squeak. In fear, she clutched her staff to chest, squishing her bust against her arms.

"And who are you to command me, wench?" a voice called from the garden. Crystal watched as the source of the voice entered the clearing. It appeared as a large, uprooted flower, walking by its vine covered roots. It was covered in smaller pink and green flowers, and its stem was reinforced by similarly covered vines. From its large pink petals a female form sprouted, lithe and green like a fattened stalk, and comically busty. Its hands ran through its hair of grass and flowers, all while she looked down at Crystal as she stood two heads taller.

"Excuse me, I'm not a wench!" the silver mage correctly. "I'm a bimbo! It's totally different! And besides, only Melsie can call me that!"

" 'Melsie?' " the plant woman repeated, before bursting into laughter. Her sharp voice cut through the air. "Is the House so incompetent that a mage can break so easily in my manor?"

Crystal didn't respond, and instead put on her meanest face possible - a bit difficult with plump, bee-stung lips - as the green woman leaned down to meet her face-to-face. Her enormous breasts hung before Crystal, who glanced at them and, in response, grew her own breasts to be a bit larger. In doing so, they poured over her top, exposing herself to the plant lady.

"Who says I'm broken?" she said defiantly.

In response, the plant woman smirked and slapped Crystal's tits, causing her to squeal. She then groped them roughly.

"I'd say these are sufficient evidence," the green woman said, chuckling.

"Hmph, jealous?" Crystal said, which caused the plant woman to slap Crystal's bust again. Instead of covering them, the mage stood firm, arms open as her nipples hardened before the anthropomorphic plant. She braced for another slap, but instead, the plant woman studied her.

"Interesting," she said slowly. "What's your name, wench?"

"Hey, I said-"

Another smack rang out as breasts wobbled back and forth. Crystal squealed.

"I asked you a question," the plant woman said. "Answer improperly again, and I'll stop being so nice."

Crystal, despite cringing in pain, looked the flower woman straight in the eye. "Crystal."

"Well, Crystal," the plant lady started, "I must admit you've intrigued me. You're clearly corrupted, yet a sliver of defiance lives on."

The silver mage allowed herself a proud smile as the green woman thought deeply. "That's right!" she said, "Now give me my friends back!"

The repeated command, instead of retaliation, caused the plant woman to chuckle. "Fascinating. You're clearly too much of a brain-dead whore to understand you're not in control here, so here's what will happen."

The roots of the living plant sank into the earth and she snapped her fingers, causing the surrounding garden to shake again. Crystal looked to see two bundles of vines burst into the clearing. In them, they held the missing Vai and Corbas. The kobold's legs were forced apart by the vines as she double-penetrated by two more. Another wrapped around her middle, snaked between her breasts, and shoved itself repeatedly into her mouth. She was as if she were bring fucked in a her holes by the living vines, causing her to moan around the invader between her lips.

Corbas was no better, as he was similarly suspended in the air by vines. He also had a vine stuffed into his mouth, silencing his moans and whimpers. Instead of penetrating vines, he was being pleased by ones that were split at the tip, blooming like flowers and revealing wet, wagging tongues. One of these vines was at the tip of his erect cock, while two more pinched and licked at his balls. As evidenced by his attempts to wriggle out of its grasp, the pleasure was intense.

Crystal was... entranced at the site, only for the plant woman to grab her face and looked into her eyes. "I will let these two go, and you'll be trapped in this manor with me, where I'll wring every last ounce of disobedience from you until you're begging to lap at my feet like a dog. But don't worry, you'll be saving your friends from Corruption like a good little silver mage."

Crystal thought for a few moments, and was about to nod her head, but something inside her told her that, if she seemed too eager, the plant lady might be suspicious. So instead, she pouted before the prideful green woman.

"Are sure that's, like, the only way?" she asked softly, covering her breasts with her arms.

The plant woman grinned. "Absolutely."

Crystal shrieked as vines erupted from the ground and instantly grabbed onto her, lifting her into the air. The vines tightened around her arms and legs, worming into her hand to force her to drop the staff on the ground, where the plant lady picked it up.

"I'm going to enjoy this," she said sadistically, as more vines began to rub up and down Crystal's curvy body. "But perhaps, you'll enjoy it just a bit more, wench."

Crystal attempted to wriggle out of the vines, which caused her breasts to wobble back and forth. Two blooming vines wrapped themselves around her tits tightly, causing her to yelp in pain. Even more so when the vines opened and planted themselves onto her nipples.

"Ow ow ow!" she whimpered. "Not so rou-Mmmphh!"

Predictably, a dick-shaped vine was shoved past her plump lips, muffling her protests. It immediately it began to fuck her mouth roughly, making sure to drag her lips along the vine, spit covering both it and her lips. She could only moan as she felt more tentacles crawl up her legs and along her belly. Three of them wormed inside her shorts, molesting her ass and pussy, pulling at them and ripping open her shorts, completely exposing her lower half.

The plant woman chuckled as she commanded the vines to flip Crystal over so that she looked at the ground. She felt a tiny bit of relief as she saw Corbas and Vai freed, lying on the ground and catching their breaths, before being distracted by a smack on her meaty rump. The plant woman rained down a series of spanks on both cheeks, causing them to jiggle under the assault. With each smack, she squeaked around the vine fucking her mouth. Eventually, the spanking came to a stop, only for vines to start rubbing the now reddened cheeks.

The vines grabbed her legs, spreading them further apart, exposing her dripping pussy to the plant woman. She laughed as Crystal's face flushed red. "Did I not say you would enjoy this?"

Two vines sprouted from the ground and rubbed their dripping tips against her asshole and pussy, teasing her entrances. The tortuous wait for their penetration ate at Crystal, causing her to try and cry out in protest one more time. It was met with a final smack against both cheeks, causing her to cringe in pain.
