"Time became difficult to measure during the process, the mix of energy felt both uplifting but also alien. Ortha's power felt vast, an endless pit of something that felt akin to the cosmos, yet measured and metered like the physics that governed planets.
Chimes. Crackles. Fire. Cold - the sounds all combined as the spell took hold with increased tempo and focus. The behemoth in Kalrath's arms leaned into the demon's embrace, before the power forced his body to expand slowly, upwards and outwards - returning his proportions.
Soon, Kalrath felt the weight of the behemoth pressing back against him, muscular arms slipping underneath his and fully embracing him in a tight and incredibly warm hug.
Loud drafts of wooshing air reached the demon's ears, as the once stubby tail now swayed behind with the volume befitting of the tall creature that now pressed against Kalrath's body.
"See, that wasn't so bad was it?" The larger Ortha spoke, a smooth and rich tone, "Congratulations"
As I look at the creature, no behemoth, it seems that the roles were reversed. I was a few feet of the ground, held tightly by the, now large, beast's embrace. It felt like he could crush me at any moment, but his mannerisms proved otherwise. He was happy, perhaps a bit childish, with my success. I'd admit I was as well, even if my face did not show it much...
"Thank you. I assume this would be you normal size coming into worlds? Or at least, what is comfortable for you? I could possibly accommodate you more with a larger size, if you prefer,"
"That's a tough one to answer!" The behemoth happily replied, the hug unrelenting, "This is definitely the more common size I am used to, since it allows me to explore different worlds and cultures without being a nuisance, but it all depends on the summoner"
Ortha paused for a moment as if in thought, "Think of it like there's some far off distant ocean which is my full form, and the summoner - through thoughts and will - can pull some of that ocean into their spell. If you pull more, the bigger I am"
"On the size thing, that's up to you Kalrath! The size of a creature is not a measure of their strength or stature but the quality of their heart and soul. Use what you feel is more comfortable to you"
"I see."
I expected a proud and arrogant, maybe annoyed, summoned creature. But, I see before me a friendly beast, like a close companion you haven't seen in a long time.
"Hopefully I did not pull you away from what you were doing before. Curious, what do most people want you to do when you are summoned, and are you usually bigger or smaller then?"
"Honestly I don't recall what I was doing!" Ortha laughed heartily, "Time is not really relevant when hopping around the multiverse, it always makes me happy when I land up in a new place to meet and explore, though your care is most certainly appreciated!"
"As for what people want me to do? I've gotten requests to fight for them, to explore for them, to re-nurture nature or even to shape the stars for them"
"Sometimes it's for a show, and sometimes its to create an Oath with me. Really, it's all too varied to summarize here and now. Why did you summon me?"
"Um..."
I should probably tell him the truth, lest I cause him to lose his happy mood.
"...in all seriousness, mostly for practice. I expected something smaller, let it wander a bit, then send it back...or worst case fight it back. I tend to be more physical than magical, you see. I apologize."
"If needed, I can send you back, or is there anything I can do for you to make your stay more hospitable? "
Ortha blinked, but then offered a cheeky yet gentle smile, "Well, you did manage to summon something small. Admittedly, mayhap not by design."
"No need for that, I can leave when needed. You summoned me but you didn't perform a binding summoning. If you plan on using a familiar in future, you must remember to attempt to bind it to your will or you may have quite the fun situation on your hands."
"As for the physical side, you are very well built my friend - but don't let that stop you dabbling in magic if it interests you. Now!" The behemoth all but barked, "Why not show me around a bit? Enough about me, how about more about you."
"Of course, their is a bar I frequent, if you would like to go, for a start? I'm sure the local patrons would love to have you there."
"A bar!" Ortha practically smothered Kalrath in excitement and muscle as he hugged tightly and happily, "Those are always fantastic to visit. The best place to hear about your world, and to experience what everyone is like!"
"Oh! Tell me what kind of bar is it? What patrons visit?" the behemoth continued, his tail wagging happily with loud swooshing noises.
"Quite a nice place, it's more like a combination of restaurant and bar, quite nice atmosphere."
"as for the patrons who visit, a manner of different races: demons like myself, some behemoths like you, even some phoenixes. The owner is a dragon, and a quite friendly sort, he would love to have you!"
"Well!" Ortha beamed, "Lead the way Kalrath, let's see what this world is like. Wonder if they have those 'party games' I often see. Arm wrestling, darts, the like"
"Oh! The darts was a fun one, though I don't think it was built for someone with my body type. You throw these little pieces of metal at a round board made of cork, but when I threw it, it went clean through the wall."
"Of course, but it maybe your lack of power control, than your body type, we will see when we get there. I can see Lucio being quite content with your presence, and maybe rub it in Varg's face a bit..."
