Chapter Text
Pearl had two sisters, her little sister PearlescentMoo, and her older sister DullStar, whom she loved dearly, in spite of their differences.
And from the outside perspectives, there were many differences indeed as tended to be the nature of a Hels.
Pearl is kind and caring, always willing to help others, she was social, she rarely actually got angry.
Dull was nothing like her sister.
Dull was rude and violent, destroying others' works, she was rarely around if it wasn't so she could fight someone, she was wrathful. Where Pearl looked ethereal, Dull looked demonic, her body coated in scales and feathers in contrast to Pearl's fur and feathers. Pearl's eyes were white and blue, Dulls were black and orange.
And yet, Pearl adored her sister, and even stranger, Dull loved her sister as well.
Where others saw a violent monstrous killer, Pearl saw her sister, who was with her for years, who raised her and their youngest sister alone.
Her own flames burned her face, body riddled with wounds that never healed from battles. She fought for them.

Pearl soothed them, her pale skin soothed Dull's rough burns. They lay together on the mushroom island, Moo slept on Dull's back as Pearl curled in front of her, her sisters' large wings covering her in warmth.
“So, how’s the new server? Having any fun?” Pearl said sleepily, yawning from the heat.
“Well…” Dull’s voice gave her signature growl, getting into the story.

Starting in the nether was… a surprise. An annoyance for many, particularly Dull.
Dull watched as the server started to go into chaos, many already began to lay claim that the nether would be theirs to claim.
Dull didn't care for that, she simply blasted a hole into the fortress and flew out, seeing Pisces follow her out, True following behind before they disappeared into the smoke as Dull flew at rapid speeds.
Eventually her senses echoed and she stopped mid air, staring downwards at a lava lake.
There you are, just what I looked for.
Dull rose into the sky, grappling the rocky ceiling and dive-bombing into the lake, her feathers fired forward, cutting through the air and ripping a hole into reality as Dull flew straight through it, catching fire.
The portal opened deep inside a cavern deep below the servers mushroom island… before Dull charged through and blasted a hole straight from bedrock to the surface.
It didn't take long for her to fly into the sky above before landing nearby, charring the area around her landing.

“I have the island all to myself, those idiots can't take it from me, working on drying the lake around it honestly, keep them away.”
Her story was interrupted by the sound of Pearl snoring, having slept from the warmth surrounding her.
Dull smiled softly, she didn't care about much, but she did care for her sisters, seeing them happy was always worth more than anything.
