A chubby, tanned fairy with tiny little wings that looked like feathers bumbled around the forest looking for a certain winged-faunness. He carried a small parcel wrapped in a fine silk fabric embroidered with gold threads.
Upon finding the home of the intended recipient of this package, he placed it on the ground in front of the door. He knocked three times then fluttered off back to his home, happy to be done with such exhausting work.
Wrapped in the fine silk is a small box with a necklace made of the most beautifully wrought gold the island would ever see. Obviously made with great care, the necklace featured two serpents whose open mouths formed the clasp. The necklace is inlaid with many dazzling jewels and is exquisite in beauty and value.
Inside the box is a note.
Quote: Dearest,
This precious gift I bestow will grant thy eternal youth and beauty. Take care of it, and be warned to not speak of it to anyone, lest ye be cursed with tragedy and barrenness.
Keep it safe and remember, tell no one.
~ heart Mother
((Remember, Lust will know nothing of this, or who this "Mother" person is. She can wear the necklace, and radiate beauty unlike she ever has, or she can hide it and keep it safe; it's your choice, but remember, she will be cursed if she tells anyone about it. If you have questions, feel free to ask.))

Lust had just settled down when there was a knock on the door, sighing she got up and walked over to it and opened it noticed a Mellon flying away which just made her curious "wait!" She called but was too late, looking down n the ground she noticed a box "eh...?" She said as she picked it up "whats this?" She asked herself softly as she walked inside with it and sat down with, looking the box over "such a pretty box" she said to herself as he she started hearing a cry from the upstairs bedroom, her old bedroom, she placed the box down on the table and ran up the stairs and into her old room. "Darling, whats wrong?" She asked as the baby yawned "food!" She said as Lust smiled at her "alright darling, come on, lets go get you something to eat" she said as she picked the chick up and cuddled her, walking out of her bedroom and down the stairs with her and took some fresh meat she had cut up finely for her earlier and took it over to the table and settled back down with her, feeding the chick who ate happily but kept her eyes on the box every so often.
After about half an hour of feeding the little one she got up and wiped her hands and put the dish in the tub of water and walked back to the chair and settled down with the bird "shall we see whats in here?" She asked the little chick as she picked it up, settling the cute on her lap and opened the box, opening it she looked in shock at the beautiful necklace inside and after what seemed like half an hour to a little bird she nudged her mothers hand who looked down at the chick and smiled before looking back at the other. "Whoever sent this they must have made a mistake, maybe it was meant to go to my Aunt or one of the other Goddesses, i am nothing but a Demi, nothing more' she said looking the beautiful jeweled necklace over and placing the box on her lap so she could use both hands and shook her head "no, this is totally not for me, maybe I best try and get a hold of my Aunt or Grandmother, maybe they would be better off with it, she would at least be pleased to know it would be in good hands then.
As her mommy was looking the necklace over Aella was getting into the strange thing that was next to her, after digging around a little she pulled out a piece of paper and was happy to just tear it it shreds, happily giggling "what on earth have you got there?" Lust asked, looking down at the chick, pleased she was happy but then saw the writing on it "hang on darling" she said as she placed the necklace down in the box "it has something on it" she said as she took the piece of now bitten and a little bit torn paper from her daughter and read it out loud to her daughter. After several moments rereading it she took note of the warning before placing the note back in the box "sorry baby but I will get you something else" she said as she picked up the necklace "m...mother?" She said softly "I have a mother?" She didn't know what to think, she was surprised she had one and questioned why she didn't want to be known about till now but she was a little skeptical also, why would someone claim she was her mother? Then again, who says she even WAS her mother? She was the daughter of a Faun and a God, she had a CONNECTION to the Gods, ANYONE who would want some power or was greedy or something could have easily given this to her to make her just think it was her mother just to lure her into believing that it was her mother yet come after her to try and get to the Gods.
Lust shook her head, conspiracy theories can be left alone, she put the chick on the table and took the box over to the mirror and placed it around her neck, the necklace looked beautiful, she was, if only a tiny bit, happy to have received such a gift and from a Pae who may possibly be her mother! But then reality hit and a sense of dread, how would she ever make it up to the Pae she thought was her other father? Himeros had been treated badly by her and now...now she had to find a good way to apologize to him. "Aella, we have work to do" she said as she picked the chick up, wrapped a blanket around her to keep her warm and walked out of the house, closing the door behind her, she wasn't sure how she was going to be able to make it up to him but the least she could do is start by apologizing to him.

Upon putting the necklace on, Lust will have found the clasp disappeared. There is no way to remove the necklace. It is enchanted and not even a blacksmith can dent the delicate filigrees or chain. The first part of the curse is complete.
Remember, Lust cannot speak of the necklace.

As Lust ran out to the main meeting place of Pae she looked around and whilst she had this feeling Himeros wouldn't be here as he wasn't exactly one for crowded places she did start heading down toward the Lake, maybe he was hanging around there looking for someone to try and get with for the night.

The only main meeting place for Pae'il, the Head Quarters building, was destroyed over a year ago. The only Pae'il hanging around there will be those still rummaging through the debris, which by this time, has mostly been cleaned up.
The distance between the old HQ and the Lake is close to a hundred miles by foot/hoof. Little less by wing. Take that into consideration when having Lust zip around looking for someone.
On the beach where Lust stood waiting for a deity parent that would not come, an older Pae'il approached her. In the distance, it was hard to make out who it was, but as the figure got closer, it became apparent the figure was wearing a dark brown cloak without a hook. It was a faun, possibly female. Her branch antlers were worn and broken, having seen better days and she was covered in dirt and debris. She walked with a subtle limp and her left hoof was noticeably cracked. She carried a gnarled walking stick with a thick handle. The sand was proving a bit of challenge for the elderly faunness, but she walked with purpose towards Lust.
((Himeros is a deity, and unless specifically called to live on Telrunya, they reside on their own mist-shrouded island called Dolandor. The proper way to get a deity's attention is to summon them via their altar. There is a thread that describes this here -- however, Himeros has nothing to do with this NOTICE, so you would need to do a PRP to take care of that business. I'd like to keep personal RP out of these Notices as these are official shop cannon RP which should serve as future reference sources for some of the details of the setting and plot. This particular story is associated with Valentine's Day plots, not necessarily the metaplot, so it will be done in stages throughout the year leading up to Vday 2014.))

As Lust was roaming around looking for the God she hadn't realized how far she had actually come from when she first left but, and as much as she didn't want to, she had ended up on the beach and just stood there looking out at the surf and smiling softly to herself "Atlantis..." she said softly, wondering how her friends were and looked down at the sleeping Pae in her arms "and you, my dearest, will one day meet him and his friend Twinkleshine, I am sure you will love them" she said as she bent down and kissed the little ones forehead and made sure she was kept warm, not wishing to have the cool sea air make her sick. "I guess we will look else where" she said as she turned and started to walk down the beach, enjoying the cool breeze and the sand under her hooves but was about to turn back up onto the grassy area to start heading back the way she came when she noticed something heading for her and while she wanted to just leave the Pae coming towards her, something telling her that it may be safer to just let someone else deal with her she ignored it.
Lust started walking towards the other, noticing as the female got closer, that the poor thing was limping and her branch antlers looked like they had seen better days and so she rushed toward her, being careful of her daughter, and stopped beside her, she had always been taught to help Pae in trouble and so she wasn't about to leave this Pae hobbling down the beach "my name is Lust and this is my daughter Aella, Ma'am, would you like some help?" She asked as reached out a hand in hopes the other would accept.

The older faunness moved slowly, looking at Lust, and the odd child attached to the winged-faun. "L-Lust! I've been looking for you, Dearest. I've searched everywhere for you."
A glint from one of the gems in Lust's necklace caught the faunness's eye and she smiled. "I see you found my old necklace." She opened her arms to embrace the faun demi-god.

Lust took her hand back and stepped back and looked at the Pae, thoughts of how skeptical she first was when she got the necklace came back to the front of her mind, hugging Aella close, hoping she will stayed safe and asleep she looked at the other and smiled kindly at her "i'm sorry, I don't know what you are talking about, I made this necklace myself, Scuba Steve dropped the materials off for me to use and I just finished it earlier today, it is a beautiful piece, yes, but I guess I am a little biased" she said, thoughts still churning inside her head. Should she trust this Pae? Who says that this Pae IS the owner of the necklace? What proof has she got to show that the necklace is hers? Is she REALLY my mother or is she just wanting to get to the Gods or my father through me? And given that a Mellon dropped it off where is this Mellon now? Are they not bonded to the Pae who has befriended them? Of course Lust wasn't 100% sure about Mellons exactly, they are around, she has seen them bonded to Pae and she loves her Aunt's Mellon but other then that basic information she hadn't really learnt alot about Mellons.
Lust stood there looking at the other as she wrapped her daughter up a little more and held her closer to her and stepped back once more "if I may ask" she said, deciding to try and act as normal as she could "could I please ask your name?" Even if she did know this Paes name she couldn't really go around asking others about this woman, the note stated that I should keep the necklace a secret which means that asking questions about this woman IF she was her mother, would be breaking the rules of what the note said but still, maybe, somehow, she could possibly do her own research.
