The Heavenly Ruins

Aruna
Aruna stood before the statue of that woman, the one smiling like the sun itself. Asmeal was cursed with the burden of the light and twisted by its influence. Zeke the false demon carried darkness yet pushed forward with the power of a human. Lulu held a creature of darkness as her equal, even despite holding the power of light. Although her personality was eccentric, he held no fault with her ideals thus far. Light and dark magic were both wielded by the demon, yet he never considered if they could coexist. After spending that time with Lulu, feeling their bodies meld together in intimate touch... Maybe...
Wings emerged from the demon's back and he shot into the sky like a giant black rocket, a tail of dark stardust tailing behind him. His right palm glowed with darkness, his left a bright light. One side of the sky shined with bright light, the other blackened by shadow. The two forces began to spin meld and spin together, consuming each other but never truly mixing.
"....I can't conceptualize it yet, not fully. Why...? I made love to an angel for lucifer's sake."
Still it wasn't bad. The forces weren't really consuming each other, but mixing. Perhaps if he could mix the two elements he could advance his own magic, perhaps develop a new art. "What is light and dark really?"
YOLF:
Orcus
An unyielding voice boomed from the shadows, providing answers that the demon had not asked for.
"What a guileless question to ask in this place. They are each what shall be destroyed by compromise to the other. Fire and water. Or perhaps, vapor and ice?"
A man stepped out from behind a crumbling arch, inky lips curved faintly under a heavy hood, and the dark flapped about him like a cast-off shroud. He made no move to approach, only raised his head to the benevolent statue.

Aruna
"I suppose it would appear that way to a human," Aruna said, the light and dark being sucked back into his body as if it were a vacuum. The demon's body twisted and distorted upon hearing the newcomers voice, forming a sort of blob. All that remained on the blob was the bat wings as he descended to the earth. The form that emerged was Aruna's female form. The batwings shrank down to the size typical of this form and the demon approached with a curious look in her eye. Holding her head up, she sniffed the air around him. "Oh I was mistaken. You are not a human it seems."
The way he emerged from the darkness, it was something akin to the silent step and other dark arts. Still, what he said was interesting. It was probably what he himself saw in the sky. That is what the demon's magic looked like. "Destroyed by compromise," she said, staring into his eyes. "I suppose that is all I can muster right now. Compremise.... I wonder... if there is something beyond compromise? Tell me, what is your purpose here?"
YOLF:
Orcus
His gaze moved down to meet her, and then his head tilted the same direction. He spoke with confidence through a slight, lopsided smile. "You can call me Orcus. I'm a salvager of sorts, or if you'd prefer, a seeker of certain truths. To who do I owe the pleasure?"
yinsukin:
Aruna
"What a calculated way to answer that question Orcus," she said, sniffing him again like a dog trying to identify something. "My name is Aruna and in a way I would say I am similar, a demon seeking the truth. But you know Orcus.... there are many truths in this world. Coming to this place, this specific area in this city raises some questions. Despite not being a human, your presence reeks of one who is looking for things far outside of their depth."
