Aurelia Rising

"The most sincere truths are revealed in the scorch marks of dragonfire."

- Aríon IX Danaryon

Though everyone had looked glad to see her, even Comak in his grumpy way, they weren't willing to embrace her in celebration. They were all exhausted and soaked in mud and filth. Aurelia herself was barely clothed, and even though the others had been wading through a marsh for the better part of the afternoon, Aurelia was the most rancid. She didn't even want to think about what sorts of liquids were covering her from her time in the goblin piles.

A short walk past the edges of the marsh, they found a place where the tree were spaced far enough apart to string up their tents for the day. The men and women split up, shed their clothes, and dove gleefully into the waters of the river. It was frigidly cold. Cool with mountain melt which had flowed many miles to grace their skin with goosebumps. The water around the three women turned brown with filth for a time before gradually clearing, and even Aurelia's usually wandering eyes found no room to admire her women. The scratch marks from the goblin that morning were bright and red along her forearm, and now that she was clean of filth she could see them clearly. The beast hadn't penetrated too deeply, but now that she had washed her wounds in the water, the dull throbbing they had been reduced to ignited in to fresh stings of pain.

They clambered up the rocky shore out of the cold waters of the Tiber river, shivering as they rushed to dry themselves and dress in warm clothes once more. The sad tattered remains of Aurelia's blue dress lay where she had tossed them by the shore in her haste to get clean. The sight reminded her of her hidden passenger hidden inside her below. She had honestly gotten so used to the full feeling of it's presence that she had forgotten it's presence. She silently marveled at it. She was a big girl, but it was a big egg all the same even proportionally to her body. The more experienced priestesses of the temple back in Rome had sometimes boasted about their ease of giving birth, but she was no devotee of Ceres to have trained her body so. She put the thought to the back of her mind, she had more important things to think about. Namely, spending time with Thessa and Junia.

She sat on a rock while Thessa worried over her wounds like a mother hen. She felt like a whole new woman now that she was clean and dressed in her pink stola (actual clothes!). Thessa wasn't talking very much, and had checked over every part of Aurelia multiple times as though she was ensuring it was still there. Aurelia had humoured her gladly, she was sure she'd have to confront whatever monsters lurked behind the tauren's eyes, but that would come later when she was willing to open up.

Iri had disappeared sometime after Aurelia's dramatic appearance in the marsh, but she wasn't worried. The sprite was her own person, and Aurelia had no doubt she was exploring the nearby forest, or peaking down at her from afar. Weirdo.

The men had finished washing themselves some time before the women had, and had set up most of the camp and dug a rudimentary firepit where Gaius was now stirring today's dinner. She received the second delight of her day, the first being when she had reunited with the group, when Junia had stumbled over to the pair carrying a pack designed for someone clearly larger than the woman herself.

"My pack!." Aurelia exclaimed. And would have risen to her feet if Thessa hadn't pressed her back down.

"I know we were supposed to leave everything we could behind..." Junia said, her eyes looking anywhere but Aurelia's. "But I just couldn't bring myself to toss this as well."

"So that's why you had my stola?!" Aurelia said. "And here I thought you had dropped the rest along the way here. I didn't see it at your campsite."

Junia dropped the heavy pack beside them with a heavy thumphf! She only let out a small grunt of relief, to her credit. With her free hand, Aurelia grabbed the pack and lifted it closer so that she could confirm it's contents. It might have been mostly for sentimental reasons, but sure enough, everything was still there just as she had left it. She spread her arms wide and brought Thessa and Junia close against her, squeezing them tight. Thessa let out a small eep! as she was smushed, while Junia simply hugged her back stronger. It might have been a hard few days, but they had made it through the other side intact.

Aurelia prayed to every god she knew that it would stay that way.

The three of them sat in Aurelia's tent. Dark had fallen on the river valley, and only the barest glimpses of stars could be seen from under the canopy of trees. Iri had finally returned, to her relief. She had given her quite the stink eye when Aurelia had tried to talk to her, and had simply perched herself on Aurelia's head and begun to braid her hair. She seemed to have quite the fascination with the stuff. Thessa was resting her head against Aurelia's shoulder, holding her arm in her hands as though to bind her to the spot, while Junia sat across from them with her legs crossed.

"So..." Aurelia began, not quite sure where to start. "Do you guys want the full story? Or just the important bits."

"The whole story!" Thessa said firmly from beside her.

"All of it, please." Junia said after a moment of consideration.

"Well... uhhh... you know how there was that mountain there, right?" Aurelia began. And so she told them of her desperate flight up the mountain, with Iri bouncing along in her hair. Of how the orcs had chased her right to the highest peaks, and off into the air. She told them of how she learned to fly, and tried not to let on just how close it had been between the Aurelia in front of them now, and the red splat of Aurelia which could have been. She told them of her search for shelter in the cliffside cave, and how she had searched for day and night without food to find them. When she got to the part where she had seen the great ork host, darkness descended on Junia's face, and Thessa's eyes widened with fear.

"Are you really sure there were that many?!" Thessa asked, though her voice was filled more with dread than with inquisitiveness.

Aurelia just looked down at her, nodded gravely, and drew her into her bosom.

She then told them of the scramble on the goblin trash piles, maybe one day she could tell this story with humour in her voice, but for now it was too raw and real for her half-naked scramble to be anything but ghastly. She kept her account of the captives, and of the men's bodies to herself. She didn't want to think about how close they had come to such a fate. The rest was easier, of how she spotted the leavings of their camp the previous day, and had followed Junia's marking of grain until she had found the river, and eventually to how she had spotted them as pale splotches of colours against the dull greens and browns of the marsh.

"I quite liked beavers before now, but I think I'll have to resist the urge to charge screaming at the next one I see!" Junia added petulantly when Aurelia finished her story.

There was a long moment where no one said anything, simply soaking in the tale and the company of the tent. It was Thessa's partially muffled voice which broke the silence.

"You said you found a large egg in the cave you slept in, but the only thing I saw you carrying when you arrived was your spear. Did you leave it behind?"

Aurelia paused, then blushed slightly. Looking down between her folded legs, or at least she would have been if her cleavage wasn't in the way. Nestled deep inside herself lay the egg. She had been going to reveal it's presence to them soon enough, and she supposed now was as good a time as any. Where at first she had fashioned herself a sort of leather diaper from the torn remains of her measly armour, after shedding them she had found that she didn't need the help to keep the egg safely stowed inside. Whether that was a product of some unique quirk of her body she wasn't aware of yet, or a result of the eggs large size, she wasn't sure.

Hiking up the pink folds of her stola, and spreading her legs, she revealed her womanhood to her women. They both stared at the gap between her legs.

"Yes, Aurelia, you have a very nice cunny. But what does that have to do with anything?" Junia chided, not understanding.

"Sometimes I forget how weird you are." Said Thessa. "I honestly forget that you don't always have a cock that would put horses to shame down there."

Aurelia ignored them and began to breathe deeply, gently clenching and unclenching internal muscles, slowly pushing at the mass inside her. If there was one thing that all the girls of the temple had been taught thoroughly, it was how to deliver and help deliver young'uns. She just never thought she would use it to push out a baby that wasn't even hers, or humanoid at all for that matter. As her nethers began to pulsate, Junia and Thessa's eyes widened.

"You don't mean you..." Junia was about to say when the first flashes of brown-bronze began to be visible.

Aurelia breathed deeply, controlling her breath and trying not to let on just how the actions made her feel physically. She drew Thessa tight against herself instinctively, but the tauren paid her no heed. She was busy looking down at the spectacle to protest. With every pulsation, more of the egg was revealed, before retreating back slightly. Two steps forwards, one back. As it emerged, it was coated with a sweet-smelling sheen. The texture was oddly bumped and ridged, in a natural pattern that none of them could identify. Not that Aurelia cared for the reason in that moment, judging by the colour of her cheeks and the tone of her breathing. With a wet pop! the widest section was free, and the rest came smoothly in one long motion, followed by a small deluge of Aurelia's excitement. All three of them gasped, though one was of a deeper tone than the others.

They beheld the egg which lay on the tent floor between them. Aurelia was the first to break the tension, reaching down to pick it up with a hand. Her other covered her dignity once more, though not without satisfaction. They beheld the shining metallic object in her hand in the dim light which penetrated the tent from the campfire outside. It glinted off the sides of the egg in odd ways, both from the slightly reflective surface of the egg, and the Aurelia-provided coating.

"You had that ENTIRE thing, shoved up your..." Junia said before trailing off, her face dumbfounded. Thessa was more accepting of matters, and seemed to take it in stride. "What sort of creature is it?"

"I have no idea." Aurelia answered truthfully. "And Iri didn't seem to have any idea either." At the mention of her name, the sprite looked up from her work and harumphed indignantly, seemingly annoyed to have been known to be ignorant of a manner relating to the living beings of the wilds. Aurelia couldn't see much back there, but the sprite had been at work a long time by this point, and she seemed to have lost no enthusiasm for braiding her hair. She had felt the strands of her golden hair be drawn back, and they were surely now in some convolutedly complex braid of Iri's devising, but that would have to wait until later.

"I'm not sure exactly what sort of creature it is, but it'll probably grow up to be pretty big judging by the size of the feathers in the nest." Aurelia said.

"How do you even know it's alive?" Junia asked.

"I guess I don't, but I'm pretty sure it is. Otherwise, all this trouble keeping it warm is going to look all funny." Aurelia replied.

"And shoving it into your cunny is just that then? An excuse to keep it warm?"

Aurelia blushed. "Well, I had to keep it warm all around for a long time, and needed to keep my hands available..."

"Whatever you say, feather-tits."

"Hey!"

As they sat and chat, the next activity which Aurelia had been missing these last couple days began to rear it's thickening head. Thessa and Junia too, had long since shed most of their clothing. Junia lay partially reclined, accidentally showing just enough of the space between her legs to be enticing, but not enough for her to actually get a clear view. Thessa on the other hand, was completely bare-chested. Her bountiful chest on full display in the dim light, though she was slightly hunched with shyness. Perhaps it would be a while longer before she would be completely comfortable with the common casual intimacy which came with being near Aurelia. Regardless, it had been two days since Aurelia had found release. A lifetime in her eyes, given the frequent daily releases she had sought for herself before and the stamina which pushed her two women to their limits daily.

Lust filled the tent. Aurelia was the first to move, disrobing the last of her pink stola and revealing the growing member between her legs. Soon after, two heavy weights settled in behind. They were drawn taught and inflamed with pent up lust. With the pretense that they would do anything else shattered, the other two quickly tore off what little clothes they still had on.

Aurelia pounced on Thessa, who let out a little yelp! before it turned into an moan of acquiescence. Her bare breasts had been teasing her for the whole conversation, and she would not be stopped form sating her needs now. She smothered Thessa with her body, and spread the tauren's legs as wide as they would go with her knees. Their difference in size was such that though their pelvises were aligned, Thessa's head only reached Aurelia's chest. She quickly used that nice little detail to her advantage, leaning forwards and burying Thessa's head in a sea of creamy titflesh. Her weighty cock lay heavy on Thessa's belly, drooling thick strands of pre. A monstrous sight to any unknowing observer. Aurelia drew her wide hips back, and guided herself to her prize with one hand. She let out a low groan of satisfaction as she slid home into Thessa's wet core. Thessa would have let out a loud cry of pleasure, but any sounds she made were muffled and dim.

She heard a keen of need, and looked up to realize that in her haze of lust she'd left Junia without any affection. So as she began to thrust deeply into Thessa, she reached out with a long arm and brought the needy woman close. Their lips seared against each other as they made contact, though Aurelia's tongue soon began to plunder Junia's mouth and throat, swallowing any moans or exhales.

Each contact she made with Thessa's hips created a meaty double slap of sound. Once as Aurelia's hips slammed home, and the other as her balls swung and slapped Thessa's hefty ass. The sounds quickly became wet and lewd as Aurelia's pre and Thessa's excitement began to spill from their joining. Both contacts caused delightful ripples and jiggles their soft flesh, creating a mesmerizing sight to Iri, who watched it all from a distant corner of the tent with wide bright eyes.

Merely kissing wasn't enough for Junia, or for Aurelia either. She caught Junia's wrist as it trailed down her stomach towards her own sopping neglected pussy. With one final lash of her tongue, Aurelia broke contact and swung Junia in front of her. The woman was about to protest, but Aurelia laid her down legs spread with the flower of her sex presented like a saturnalia feast. She dove in to her coveted meal, and Junia had to cover her mouth with her own hands to keep from waking everything from here to Greece.

The three of them lay there, writhing in pleasure and desire. Aurelia pressing Thessa into a mating press, smothering her in her huge breasts. The tauren clung to her underside like an infant beast to it's mother. Legs hooked behind Aurelia's hips, her hands either reaching around to grab a better grip, or luxuriating in the abundance of soft flesh about her head. Aurelia herself pounded powerfully with full thrusts, driving Thessa back and forth on the tent floor with the force of her lust. Her own arms were free to pin Junia into place and hold her steady so she could enjoy her feast. The woman squirmed and writhed against her mouth, moaning and gasping into her hands to keep quiet.

The delightful balance couldn't last. Though Aurelia's lovers might be able to crest the top of a climax and continue unimpeded, Aurelia herself could not. Each orgasm was an ordeal which shattered her mind, and the mind of the receiving partner. And she had not cum for two days.

She felt her balls rise slightly in their sac, too heavy to be drawn up completely. Thessa made a sound of both pleasure and dread as she felt Aurelia's cock thicken slightly in preparation to disgorge it's load. With a cry that Junia's pussy absorbed, Aurelia slammed home one final time before grinding her hips against Thessa's. Spurts of thick cum shot deep inside her, each one a deluge even compared to Aurelia's usually impressive displays. With their hips pressed so closely together, Aurelia's cock blocked any of her precious cargo from escaping. Each shot filled Thessa more. The woman herself was wailing incoherently into Aurelia's tits, her limbs spasming and shaking. For long moments they remained like this, Aurelia pumping her woman full of her love.

Eventually, the well ran dry. For now.

Aurelia raised her head from Junia's puffy cunt, and let out a long, satisfied exhale. Though they all knew this would be but the first of many loads, this one had managed to take the edge off of her lust. But already she felt her balls rallying for another round, her virility demanding more from her. So she looked up into Junia's eyes, and saw them filled with need and anticipation.

She just smiled, and pulled out of Thessa with a wet squelch!
