"What you mean?" Jim cried out in anger "Monica is Lust's Servant?"
"I mean that and more!" Crimson said "She now serves the Sin Lust, Alurava!"
"So now, as well as you, We now have Lust involved!" Ryodjn asked not liking the fact, there were two of the Seven involved "Anything else you like to tell us?"
"Serisun, the Sin of Pride, im sure is involved now as well!" Crimson said smiling "In fact, thinking about it, whoever behind all this, needs their help!"
The rest of the group, just looked at Crimson in shock. A few days ago, most of them didn't even know the Sins had a form, never mind even meeting one of them. Now, they were all involved in something bigger then they could have forseen, involving 3 of the Sins and as yet, hidden evil. Andy and Jim, were having a hard time dealing with what they just heard, feeling way over thier heads. Calla, was feeling a little unsteady herself, but dealing with it better then the males. Ryodjn, had kinder expected something like this, but still didn't like this.
"Crimson, can you try and explain what you mean?" Ryodjn asked, feeling he needed to know more "Why makes you think that who ever behind it, need Lust and Pride help?"
"Alurava, helped me make the ring, like me, she is connected to it!" Crimson began, as if speaking to a class of school childern "Also like me, she had to give it certain aspects of her power, which would explain alot of things!"
"Like what?" Calla asked "Meghan's hasn't become like Monica?"
"Meghan can't become like Monica, that something else!" Crimson Continued "but the ring is changing her, be it slowly, in form and mind!"
"I not getting you, what has all this got to do with lust and the ring?" Andy said "what do you mean, Meghan is changing?"
"Andy, I gave the power the power to make the wearer wishes true, to be able to access the deepest dreams and desires, then to shape the world to reflect that desire" Crimson explained kindly "Lust, gave the ring her abilities to enhance the body sexually, make other desire more, to be able to know any lust filled desire, so that the ring may grant the wearer desire in that area too!"
"Sounds like it pretty powerful!" Andy said, now beginning to gasp how dangerous this ring was "No wonder it so dangerous!"
"More so then you could understand!" Crimson said, smiling and pleased that Andy was starting to grasp the truth "But it's power should be more limited then what it's been doing recently, this is were Monica comes into it and explains Meghans changes!"
"Monica, is connected to the Ring, how?" Jim asked, not liking were this was going!
"Each time Meghan makes a wish, with the ring, it needs energy!" Crimson said "The bigger the desire, the more energy is needed, to grant the wish!"
"So, what this got to do with Monica!" Ryodjn said "The ring must have all the energy it needs?"
"No, that the point, it should not be this powerful, one of the safe guards i binded into it's creation, limited how much energy it could draw, from the planes of light and shadow!" Crimson said, childing Ryodjn "But there is a way around this limit, the ring can be given the extra energy needed, through the other two connections!"
"What are these two other connection?" Jim asked, feeling he already knew the answer.
"Me and Alurava of course!" Crimson said, seeming to delight in this fact "Of course, for reason im not gong into, who ever behind this, knew i would never agree to help in this way, that left only Lust to supply the needed extra!"
"Okay, i can understand Lust involvement, but the energy being used by the ring recently" Calla said, or maybe it was Devika, guiding her otherself "I know enough to know that kind of energy come at a high cost, Alurava must be destroying herself, channaling that level of power for so long!"
Crimson also seemed surprised at Calla insight, then to everybody surprised he walked over to her and kissed her lovingly on the forehead, and smiled with pure joy.
"That exactly right, Calla, Alurava is destroying herself, meeting the rings needs" Crimson said smiling still in delight "Us Sins can not die, some of us do take on materail Bodies, Lust is one and it her materail body that she is destroying and that she also needs!"
"If she needs a materail body, won't she become much weaker once her body is destroyed?" Ryodjn asked "Some how, i can't see her wanting that?"
"Your right, Alurava enjoys her materail body greatly, as you can imagine, it about the pleasures of the body for her, which is why i believed her to be on our side!" Crimson said "But now i know of Monica and that changes everything!"
"Why is Monica so important to Lust then!" Jim asked, getting a very nasty feeling in his gut.
"Monica is more then just a servant to Lust, the fact that she likes blood, the way she changing, how Protective Alurava is of her, can only mean one thing!" Crimson said, as if the conclusion was clear to all "Monica is being made ready, to become Lust new body!"
