Guu'd Night, Sweet Princess
#1
It was a peaceful beautiful day in Camelot, and then there was Guu.

There she is, jetting through the gate like it was nothing. A group of scouts dart out of the way as the pink princess sailed passed them. Just then, a thought crossed their minds collectively, one that came in a monotone female voice: ‘Sorry about that.’

Suddenly, she came to a screeching halt, minus the screeching as she was in the air at the time. She paused in front of wooden sign, glancing if over like it was the most important sign of her life right now. In some ways, it was.

‘Dalaran or Minas Tirith...’ Guu thought as she hovered in the air.

Just then, one of the scouts had regained his senses long before the others. He looked upon the pink haired one who nearly took his head just a moment prior. In his anger, he pulled out his bow.

One of the other scouts noticed his teammate arming himself and whispered out.

“No, Pablo! Don’t!”

Pablo the guard didn’t listen, he pulled an arrow from his quiver and drew his bow.

“We don’t know if she’s an actual threat, we don’t know how powerful she is. She’s literally flying, please think about this!”

The guard aims carefully, the tip of his bow directed at the back of Guu’s head. Easy shot, from this distance.

“Pablo, no!” The second scout finally got to his feet and ran for his teammate. However, he was too late, his friend fired his arrow, sending it hurtling towards the pink one’s head…

Guu proceeded to snatch it from the air without even turning and chew on the spine of the arrow as she thought.

“Dalaran… Minas Tirith...”

Pablo, in shock and awe, fell to his knees. He then proceeded to bow down, face in the dirt, hoping a genuine a sign of apology would make the monster in front of him spare his life.

After a few minutes of thinking, Guu suddenly stopped, whirling around to spy on the the guards. The ones that weren’t face down in the dirt, jumped at the sudden movement.

‘Weirdos.’ Guu said in their thoughts. The arrow floated out of her mouth on its own, planting itself in Pablo’s Quiver.

Guu turned in the direction of Dalaran and took off in a sudden burst of acceleration, flying at top speed towards the city in the clouds. She had never been there, but she had heard so much from the Dataverse. It’s shame a she couldn’t visit on better circumstances.

She passed the time by wondering to herself; what kind of punishment would the wizards have for her? She considered the possibility of death and banishment. Both seem kind of extreme, but she had no idea the severity in which wizards enforce their laws. Both options were a curiosity of Guu’s.

Despite competing in Dante’s Abyss, braving ancient zombie dinosaur infested swamps, and signing up for oHarmony, she has yet to experience death. What does it feel like for everything to just stop? The idea excites her, and kind of terrifies her.

Banishment was a whole other matter though. She knew a lot about Diablo from brief time with Tearen Wover, but she knew that she needed to take the trip herself down there eventually to see it for her own eyes. She knew this, but she wasn’t sure what she would encounter down there. How did the demons of hell compare to her father? She almost wanted to find out! Bet those demons knew how to wield a pitchfork or two!

Her mind began to wander again, she considered other possibilities. What if they wanted to run experiments? Would they put her through painful tests in some wizard lab to further understand her eldritch body? Ooh, what if they had her on some romp in rat infested sewers? What if they needed a maid? All of these were delightfully boring punishments, either would be perfectly suitable for her needs.

However, Guu’s thoughts were interrupted when she was suddenly thrown in the air by a passing flying creature. A woman, riding through the air on a pegasus. Guu briefly thought about summoning a flying donkey, but then considered that would come off as more Jesus-y then Eldritch-y.

She landed on the ground and started to summon something else, a flying beast that embodies the true spirit of the Eldritch bloodline.



High above the clouds, the pointed spires of Dalaran reached for the greatest of heights. Wizards and mages went about their day, when suddenly a giant 5-foot winged platypus landed in the streets. The magic users stared in confusion and curiosity as the pink abomination of a princess stepped off her noble steed. She waved to the crowd, her hand steadily growing more fingers with each wave as she stepped into what is the bounty’s claims office, or at least that’s what the dataverse told her it was.

The princess walked casually up to the front desk. The lady occupying the front was a stout young woman in colorful robes. She was scratching a quill against a piece of parchment when Guu suddenly leapt up onto her table, giving her a start.

“Uh...” Said, a little bit shaken but quickly recovering. “Oh! Hello little girl, how may I help... you?”

She stumbled on her words a little bit. At first she saw the tiny child in a cute pink dress and light pink hair, but her gaze eventually met with the kid’s eyes. Those cold emotionless unblinking eyes. As she continued to watch, she was quietly beg for her lids to close at least once, some sign she was even looking at a human.

After a long excruciating silence, Guu finally spoke.

“I am Princess Guu, I believe you have a bounty on me?”

“Princess… the leader of the wacko city in the Tangled?” She said, somewhat surprised. Stories have spread about the city of Ambrosia, in how they reveled in their oddity. There were even talks about about sending some wizards over there to study such a population.

Tales of their leader go far beyond odd. Some say she’s some sort of magical girl that focused on reality altering magic, others say she’s an eldritch abomination in a cute little disguise.

“Both are technically true.” Guu said.

“What?” Says the lady.

“Nothing.” The enigma responded.

Guu, in a display that would cause the lady to recoil in shock, reached her hand down her throat and pulled out a glass jar. She placed it in front of the woman and unscrewed the lid, handing it over to the lady. She reluctantly takes it, surprised it wasn’t wet with saliva.

“Anyways, I’m turning myself, please set that forward.”

In a flash of light, Guu transformed. The lady shielded her eyes from the glow. As the view cleared, she peered over her hand to spot that the princess had turned into a 3 inch tall fairy in a yellow dress.

The Guu fairy daintily floated into the bottle, the woman without thinking, screwed in the cap, trapping the princess inside. She lifted up the bottle up to her face to get a closer look, she spotted the princess giving her a thumbs up.

Guu was walking around the walls of her jar, humming a nonsense tune, when the door to her holding area opened. Two figures walked in, closing the door behind themselves. The two men seemed at odds in almost every way with one another. The first was clearly a warrior, a veritable mountain of a man, clad in full armor and covered in scars, an eyepatch completing the look. He carried a rolled-up paper, the latest edition of the Black Horse Courier under one arm. His gaze was steely as he took a seat, and unfolded the newspaper, matching stares with Guu the entire time. Guu stuck her tongue out by reflex.
 
The second figure was an almost unbelievably thin wizard, though his long white beard and star-and-moon hat did not help. A trim monocle sat above an angular nose, and Guu could not shake the feeling that the man had been stretched. The wizard had a large tome which he placed upon the table with finality. Guu glanced up at him pleasantly, sliding to the bottom of the bottle and standing still, fairy wings glistening slightly in the lamplight.
 
“Princess Guu of Ambrosia.” The whispy man said, using an official kind of voice, though it was a little too nasally for Guu’s liking. “I am inspector Obsiquies and this is Inspector Furn. You have been charged with the assault of His majesty’s subjects and perhaps more alarmingly the theft of a star piece from Dalaran’s agents. You have pleaded guilty on both accounts!” The wizard sniffed, and adjusted his monocle.
 
“Do you have anything to say in your defense?” he asked with a skyward glance. Guu seemed to ponder this for some time, long enough that Obsiquies glanced down again.
 
“Yes.” She said at last, but seemed to think that announcement sufficient and said nothing more. There was a silence in the room, broken only by Furn turning a page of his paper, eyes still locked on Guu. Obsiquies seemed slightly at a loss, but given that the progression of the interrogation fell to him he attempted another approach.
 
“Will you tell us why you gave the star piece to those insufferable ninjas?” he asked. This time Guu barely let the words out of the wizard’s mouth before answering.
 
“The undead T-rex wasn’t my fault.” She said matter-of-factly. Obsiquies blinked and leaned closer to the bottle.
 
“A physically ambient necromantic leviathan? It worked? How did it move? Where there any residual feathers from the…” Obsiquies’ barrage of questions was halted by the drawn out methodical sound of tearing paper. Furn finished ripping out one page of the courier, and packed it into a single clump which he then dropped onto the floor, single eye still fixed on Guu.
 
“The crime.” He said simply, and Guu could not help but envision a bulldog, he just needed the ears. It wouldn't be a cute bull dog though. Obsiquies coughed and straightened up, adjusting his wizard's hat.
 
“Quite right, quite right! Princess, I will need you to explain the events more carefully. Do follow my line of questions please, it will expedite the process tremendously.”
