Arial is Liam's older sister, and the person he hates most in the world. She was born seven years before Liam, and ever since he was born they had been rivals. For attention, for grades, for awards. Arial was always a bit cruel though, no matter how compassionate she was. She was concerned with her family, her life, and the Wiccan society in general, but was willing to sacrifice one part if it meant saving all the others.
After Liam was kidnapped, she led one of the search parties to find him. But when he returned with Zamikar inside him, who once massacered an entire Wiccan village, she saw him as a threat. She (claimed) to be sorry for it, but she secretly had him publicly exiled, hiding her own influence except to Liam, who after he was exiled she told him the truth, and then stabbed him in the back with a poisoned dagger before he could react that knocked him unconscious. She left before he had time to kill her in rage.
Arial, as a result, was assigned the job as Watcher. A Watcher observes the outside world, to watch for any threats to Wiccans, including Exiles. They are the only Wiccans that are allowed to converse with Exiles without some special reason. Additionally, a Watcher is given The Watcher's Grace, a ritual which increases the strength of their powers, and even gives Wiccans access to additional magics that they don't normally have. Only an Elder Wiccan Council can bestow this, or even know the ritual. Even the subject does not know it, because they are kept asleep during it.
They also have authority to kill anything they see as a threat to Wiccans. Including Exiles.
Equipment: Watcher's Staff: Allows her to find any exiled Wiccan, no matter who or where they are. Will give others false information that may lead to their deaths.

Arial Mitchell's Story
- Seen 18 Times • Page 1 of 1
"Oh. Well, okay then" Liam said, not quite sure what else to say as Renee disappeared back inside quickly. He had this feeling Gabby was in danger, but then again, he had a feeling Rhoan was going to try and sacrifice him as well, and that might not happen, so he decided to leave it at that for now. He could just be worried. He hadn't been worried in a long time. The feeling felt strange to him. He had been scared, threatened, exhausted, frightened, lately happy, curious, but worry? He had not felt that particular emotion in a long time. Maybe he felt like this just to remind him of that emotion?
When Renee got back and they started heading towards the Ice Cream shop, Liam felt multiple things wrong. For one thing, he knew Zamikar was close, so the commotion ahead he could only suspect was him. But, there were other things too. Was it Tayrn? He wasn't sure.
As Renee received her text, a voice behind him mentioned something. "I guess its a day of forgiveness then".
Liam recognized the voice almost instantly. He turned around, and was face to face with his older sister. And suddenly, his entire demeanor changed.
"Hell..." Arial managed to get out before Liam outright punched her in the face, not holding back his demonic strength from Zamikar as well as his own natural strength, which normally might not be that much except anger itself, without any magic, seemed to greatly increase that.
"Okay, I probably des...." his sister started to say, regaining her balance, when Liam punched her in the face again with even more force and anger. He didn't really care what anyone thought about him right now, or any punishment Renee might give him. He was far too pissed off right now. Because this was the product of over a year of focused anger. Hell, Zamikar pissed him off less then her. His own sister.
"Hold on! Will you let me...". He interrupted her again by kicking her in the stomach, causing her to collapse onto the ground. He then launched another punch at her, only this time she grabbed his fist. "Will you let me talk first damnit!"
Every streetlight for about twenty meters suddenly had a violent electrical explosion. "What? So you can rip another life from me! Or what, so you can finally try to apologize, justify your actions and remove all your guilt? Because fuck no, nothing will ever make up for what you did! What the hell are you even doing here anyways!" Liam looked at her staff, and put two and two together. "Oh, so that is why you are here. To finish the job right? Your a Watcher after all, the only kind of Wiccans who can casually converse with Exiles....and has the authority to kill them".
Arial stood up as she used some healing magic on herself, and had just a minor grin. "Only if I deem it necessary. Believe it or not brother, I did not come here with the intention of killing you".
"You stabbed me in the back! Literally, with a poisoned knife!"
"That was just to put you to sleep, and it was not a fatal stabbing, which was on purpose. I guess you can say I am here to check on you, and see if the rumors are true you are no longer with Zamikar. Also maybe to explain what I did. I am sorry for what I had to do, but with Zamikar in you I ha...". She was interrupted by Liam kicking her in the shin, causing her a great deal of pain, and he let go of his fist.
"Renee, I am sure you already figured it out, but here, lets have one person here think of their family and manners. This is my bitch sister, Arial" he told Renee, spitting at Arial. By the tone in his voice, it was fairly clear he was probably going to punch her again.

Renée was busy focusing on the scuffle ahead that she didn’t notice the female until she heard a voice talking from behind them. Turning around to face the female, she arched her brow at the girl seconds before Liam punched her in the face. Gasping, Renée didn’t even know what to say or how to react, which it wouldn’t have mattered because the kid punched her two more times. Standing there kind of like a moron, the eighteen-year-old knew that the two knew each other, but she wasn’t quite sure how and she sure wasn’t sure why he was punching the girl in the face. Finally, after he kicked her in the stomach, the unknown girl grabbed Liam’s fist, but that wasn’t the end of his anger. Snarling when he was the obvious cause of all of the streetlights exploding, Renée smacked him hard across the butt, but said nothing because the two were still bickering back and forth at each other.
Even before he explained to her who the girl was, Renée had put two and two together and figured out it was the sister that had tried to kill him. Squeezing the bridge of her nose, she just let them talk it out, not even sure if her swat had even phased Liam. When Liam kicked the girl in the shin, interrupting her, Renée had had about enough. As he introduced Arial to her and spit at her, Renée grabbed him around the wrist, yanking him backwards with a snarl,
“I get that you’re pissed off, but you’re making things explode and punching her before she can finish. Let her speak her peace and we can move on or whatever. You don’t have to forgive her, but just let her explain why she did what she did.” Renée shook her head, still wanting to know what the other commotion was about.

Liam barely managed to register Renee's smack, he was so filled with rage. When Renee yanked him back and told him to let her speak though, there was still anger in his eyes. "She betrayed me. I was her family, and she betrayed me".
"I had to. Zamikar exterminated entire Wiccan settlements, tortured hundreds! It was the right thing to do!"
"You stabbed me in the back! As in, an actual literally stab in my literal back. You had me exiled! Family doesn't do that!"
"You were a danger! Every demon would come and attack us if we did not do what we did" she yelled. Liam simply scoffed, and her expression alone seemed to indicate there was more.
"Yeah, and how well did that work? You exiled me, but I know they still went after the settlement. To try and use my family, and ex-family, against me" Liam told her. She didn't seem phased at first by the "ex-family" part. And Liam said it with a venom that seemed both natural and unnatural to him. His emotions were genuine, but he was not at all used to this level of anger or spite.
"Liam, broth..." she started, but Liam punched her in the face again.
"You lost the right to call me your brother a long time ago".
"Alright, alright, fine, I will give you that. But you might want to change your tone Liam" Arial told him. "Our parents, well, your birth parents, they died during one of the first attacks. So as much as you may hate me, I am your last blood relative".
"Cousin Jemal, Uncle Reggie, Aunt Sally, Cousin Mardo, need I go on?"
"That isn't the same. And Mardo and Sally are both dead as well".
"They are better then you. Trying to wash off the blood on your hands wont work, you have far too much of it and the wounds go too deep".
Arial stopped for a moment, and looked back at Liam, concerned. "Liam, what happened to you? I just told you our parents died, and all you did was tell me off and act angry. What happened to my sweet little brother".
"He was killed with a poisoned knife" Liam told her. "Am I upset? Yes. But I am channeling so much deserving anger right now it is being drowned out. After all, you are the one who got to eat a meal with them a day before they died".
"No, I didn't. I did not anticipate all the fallout of you leaving. Or of my involvement in that. The family, your friends, my friends. Everything sort of fell apart" she said. "You just couldn't make my life simple, could you?"
"Mom, I am really sorry" he mentioned to her, clocking Arial in the face again. His anger seemed to be venting though. He was no where near as angry as he used to be. He was more upset now. "But this was not my fault! I was a victim!"
"I had to. Zamikar exterminated entire Wiccan settlements, tortured hundreds! It was the right thing to do!"
"You stabbed me in the back! As in, an actual literally stab in my literal back. You had me exiled! Family doesn't do that!"

Renée was growing extremely impatient with the whole situation. It was clear the two of them had a lot to work out, but she wasn’t about to let him keep punching Arial in the face. It reminded her way too much of Gabrielle and that made her realize that something wasn’t right with her younger sibling. Half paying attention to the conversation at hand, she filtered through her phone contacts and sent a text to one of the Judicarius to see if they had heard from Gabby since she tended to keep them in the loop of things. While waiting for a response back, she glanced back to the siblings, frowning when she learned that Zamikar was pretty much the reason Liam was exiled.
When Liam punched her again, Renée squeezed the bridge of her nose, not liking how full of anger he was, because it just wasn’t like him. Then again, how would she react in his place? Pretty much the same, she supposed. Her frown deepened upon learning that Liam’s parents were dead. Well, no, that wasn’t why it deepened. It did so because of how he didn’t react. Grabbing a hold of Liam after he punched his sister yet again, she scooped him into her arms, kneeling in the process. Both of her arms wrapped around his body and he held her against him, shaking her head.
“We’re all victims in the end, Liam. You’ve got a right to be angry, yes. But, right now, you need to calm the hell down and stop punching Arial. Calm down and actually process what has been said and stop letting your anger rule your mindset.” Still holding him, she blinked as her phone dinged and she glanced down at the message, releasing at least seventeen different swear word combinations.
“Oh, damn it, Gabrielle…” She kept a hold of Liam, but slumped down a little.

"Yeah, I know. I won't apologize to her though, she needs to earn that, if its even possible" Liam told Renee. He seemed to be calming down already, but at the time time he also looked like he was about to punch her in the face. "So, why did it take you so long to tell me then? Is there actually some shred of decency in you that feels guilt?"
"Liam, you know me better then that. That is why I am here, I am seeking forgiveness and I want my family back. Then again, you haven't had any reaction to our...oh wait a second" Arial said, as she realized something based on his reaction and question. "You asked how long. You knew! You knew our parents died! How! Who told you!?"
"What, so you can exile them as part of you revenge? Tell me, what was your plan anyways? Come down here with news of my parents deaths, try to relieve yourself of guilt? Well, sis, I am not telling you how I got my information. What are you going to do, exile me? Oh yeah, you already did". Liam's reaction made a lot more sense though. He already knew about his parents. Which means he had grieved a long time ago. His tone suddenly dropped from anger to sadness though. "If you really want redemption though, you can start by telling me if they suffered or not".
"They died somewhat slowly. A demon attempted to torture information about you from them, but he killed them on accident".
Liam had to resist the urge to call that demon an idiot. I....I mean, Zamikar could have easily done it. He pushed that thought well out of his mind though. It was not his normal thoughts, and he did not want to be like Zamikar. "Alright then. Fine. But if you even think about complaining about how I made your life difficult, I will do something worse then punch you in the face again. Is that clear?"
"Alright, I admit, that was wrong of me to say. I just, I want my little brother back. The kid who used to give me an apple when I got sick, or go skinny dipping with our friends every morning, or who was the best singer of his class" she said. Liam wouldn't have believed it had he not been seeing it right now, but was his sister crying? No, he was absolutely sure she was probably faking. Plus, it was hard to tell anyways, because she looked away. Still, Liam wasn't sure if it was fake or not.
"Well, you killed him with a poisoned knife. I am all that is left. And I am not going with you, I am staying with Renee. She is my mom now, and she is certainly more family to me then you" he told her. His voice started with spite, but it switched to something softer. This was the Liam Arial remembered, and Renee was more familiar with. "But, if you are really serious about this whole redemption forgiveness thing, then you will have your chance to prove it. But I will never live with you, understood?"
Arial nodded. "I understand". She then looked towards Renee. To be honest, her feelings were conflicted. A small part of her did want to kill Liam, stop all the trouble he caused, then maybe blame it on a demon she would kill, bring that back, and gain fame and respect again. But Arial was not that cold hearted. She did feel some guilty with what she did to Liam, and he was the last family she really had. She missed that, she missed her family. She wanted it back, and she wanted forgiveness. And hopefully, this Renee would not get in her way. Especially if it meant having to deal with her pushed Liam only further away. "Gabrielle? Who is that? Maybe I can start by helping you with something?"
"Liam, you know me better then that. That is why I am here, I am seeking forgiveness and I want my family back. Then again, you haven't had any reaction to our...oh wait a second" Arial said, as she realized something based on his reaction and question. "You asked how long. You knew! You knew our parents died! How! Who told you!?"

Who is that? Maybe I can start by helping you with something?"
Renée knew that Liam was right, Arial in his mind didn’t deserve an apology and she was behind him one-hundred percent. However, she also didn’t deserve to be punched over and over again. Letting the two of them talk while she fired off a reply text before scrolling through her contacts, trying to find Tayrn’s cell number, Renée vaguely listened, though she kept a grasp on him to keep him from beating on his sibling again. Glancing up at the mention of her name, Renée blinked a little before focusing in on what was being said instead of just half-listening. Thankfully, Liam was willing to give Arial a chance to redeem herself, though it made it obvious that he was going to stay with Renée, which was fine with her. However, she was suddenly wary of the sibling, wondering if she would go as far as to stab Liam’s new mom in the back just to get him back. Musing a minute, she just shook her head, deciding not to dwell on such negative thoughts.
“Hnnn… Gabrielle is my younger sibling. I thought she was away on a modeling shoot, but I just got word that she was kidnapped over three months ago. Usually, that’s how long her shoot’s last, but apparently, she never got to it. I never got the text back then because my phone kept auto deleting messages because it’s a piece of crap. If I hadn’t immediately gotten to this one, I probably still wouldn’t know. I’m going to text Tayrn to let her know… since she went looking for her earlier.” Renée sent Tay a text, blinking when the familiar tone went off right where the crowd was gathered.
“Oh! She must be in the crowd.” Releasing Liam, trusting he wouldn’t hit Arial again, Renée moved towards the crowd, looking for her mother before her gaze fell upon what everyone had been staring at. Her mother. Brutally massacred. Dropping down to her knees, throwing up everything she had eaten previously, Renée crumpled up and started to earnestly cry for the loss of her mother. Despite everything, she loved Tayrn with all of her heart and losing her twice was detrimental to the eighteen-year-old. That coupled with the message that Gabby was missing plus the pregnancy was just too much for her. It wasn’t long before she went into full hysterics.

That coupled with the message that Gabby was missing plus the pregnancy was just too much for her. It wasn’t long before she went into full hysterics.
Liam seemed to have fully cooled down now, though he was still trying to slow his breaths. However, he did unclench his fists at least, so it was unlikely he would hit Arial again unless she said something that really pissed off. Liam was starting to have this strange feeling, like he actually missed her a little, but he wouldn't admit it.
When Renee mentioned Auto delete, Arial mused a little. "You know, sometimes I wonder why Wiccans don't use phones that much. Then I hear about stuff like that. Anyways, you said was kidnapped? So does that mean she isn't anymore?". Then, feeling a little nostalgic, she attempted a first step towards redemption. Friendly non-violent casual conversation about topics that did not bring up bad memories. "Liam, how is it that despite all the time since we last saw each other, your still as short as before?"
Liam almost punched her in the face, but luckily for her his sense of humor liked the joke enough not to, and appealed a bit to his nostalgia. It was a running thing between them that she would always call Liam short. And he always denied it. "Hey! I am not short!" Then he realized what Renee said. "Hold on, Gabby was kidnapped?"
"Yes you are Liam" Arial noted. "Your entire body was submerged in water when you were only a quarter way into the water".
Liam almost retorted, until he heard Renee crying and realized she went off towards the crowd. He decided to investigate, with Arial following him, only to see Renee's mother, Tayrn, brutally murdered. It was bloody, and Liam could tell just from looking two things. The first thing was that she suffered horribly, in intense pain. The second thing was that Zamikar was responsible. Sure, he couldn't be one hundred percent certain. Zamikar had acquired a number of disciples at one time. But, he was convinced beyond a doubt it was him. Because of what Tayrn had said to him, and that he didn't know her long enough, she was one of the few people Zamikar could hurt that would affect him the most.
"Its okay Renee. It will be okay" Liam tried to comfort Renee, but even he knew it wouldn't do much good. He wanted to promise that they would find out who was responsible, but if it was Zamikar, that could be a dangerous game to play. The fragment of Liam's soul that existed within Zamikar prevented him from hurting those he cared about, but they both knew he had other ways to make them suffer if he really wanted to. Therefore, neither Liam nor Arial knew what to say to Renee, but Arial knew what to say to Liam.
"It was him, wasn't it. I can see it on your face" Arial whispered to him. Liam did not reply, not yet. He just stood there, to see if Renee needed or asked for help with anything, unsure what else to say to her.

The first thing was that she suffered horribly, in intense pain. The second thing was that Zamikar was responsible. Sure, he couldn't be one hundred percent certain. Zamikar had acquired a number of disciples at one time. But, he was convinced beyond a doubt it was him. Because of what Tayrn had said to him, and that he didn't know her long enough, she was one of the few people Zamikar could hurt that would affect him the most.
"Its okay Renee. It will be okay" Liam tried to comfort Renee, but even he knew it wouldn't do much good. He wanted to promise that they would find out who was responsible, but if it was Zamikar, that could be a dangerous game to play. The fragment of Liam's soul that existed within Zamikar prevented him from hurting those he cared about, but they both knew he had other ways to make them suffer if he really wanted to. Therefore, neither Liam nor Arial knew what to say to Renee, but Arial knew what to say to Liam.
"It was him, wasn't it. I can see it on your face" Arial whispered to him. Liam did not reply, not yet. He just stood there, to see if Renee needed or asked for help with anything, unsure what else to say to her.

Aneres Coreveon wasn't dressed as obscurely as she would have liked to believe. The shimmering white kimono-style overlayer embroidered with golden moons down the sleeves, the long-hemmed fringe coming to rest just above the hemline of golden bell-bottoms. Beneath was a plain white top. A golden chain poked out from the collar but the rest of it was tucked beneath the shirt.
There was nothing Aneres could do about the bodyguards who followed her, but she had grown used to that to some degree. At least they let her style them at this point. It made everyone's job easier.
Aneres flicked golden braids to look one way up the street, then the other, then back again. A grunt from one of the bodyguards signaled that it was alright to cross. Halfway across the street she felt a slight tremor of energy. The bodyguards picked up their pace and hurried Aneres across. She didn't protest. They came to stop a stone's throw from a mercedes, a man perched atop the back.
"Did you feel that?" Aneres asked the man, half looking down her nose despite the fact that he was literally seated higher up than where she stood. Her tone wasn't pretentious but there was something about it that dripped with royalty.

"Bristol, very nice to meet you," Aneres extended her own hand and delicately gripped his. She frowned upon hearing that he didn't know what it was either.
"I am Aneres, as I prefer to be called," She regally addressed Bristol with a smile, "Princess of Aurealas. A pleasure to meet you. Is that what brings you here? Looking for the source of the disturbance? I will admit I haven't felt it anywhere else but here."
One of her Over's coughed. She rolled her eyes. They were always concerned she would reveal too much. Aneres had yet to do so.
