*Mystina cocked her head* I do not believe I've gotten to that text yet, in our library... I shall have to look that up next. *She smiled as she removed a string of jewels from Cora's hair, and sat it down on the table* I remember Kara said it was hot, there...
I didn't realize everyone was young, what kind of magic is in that area to cause such a thing? *She asked curiously, and began to think of what she had learned*

:::Cora's instinct was to shake her head, but she repressed it knowing her hair would become entangled:::
No magic... No one is old because the haven't had the chance to become old. Terra is new, and so is the majority of its citizens. The ones that were old were hidden from me...
:::But Cora didn't want to think about that now:::
There was one man though, older than the others, that I did meet...
:::But then she realized that she shouldn't think about him either... but she wanted to:::

*Mystina blinked, confused now. She was picturing all of the old people herded up, and kept in an area to be hidden, then realized that it was a silly thought* Hidden? How strange...
Oh! If it's new then that means... okay *suddenly she understood, older people may not be able to make a journey easily, it finally clicked*
One older man... was he the leader? *She smiled as she untangled another strand of jewels and sat it on the table* Goodness, I know these look beautiful in your hair, but, did they have to put so many in it? *She began to work untangling the remaining flowers*

Mm... he is the leader. Sort of. After Kal and Kara that is. James is the Speaker for the Elders. Kal and Kara are the prince and princess so...
:::She thought on it a moment:::
I forgot to ask what sort of government they had. I imagine that if there's a council then Kal and Kara don't have total rule. :::She tried not to shiver as she picture Kara ruling unquestionably:::

*Mystina shivered at the thought of Kara ruling, not really caring if it was noticed* I..would hope that there is someone there to control Kara, at least. Other than Kal, he appears to have his hands full already in dealing with her as a sibling...
She tricked me into kissing Luke, so, I do not want to think of what she could trick a kingdom into...*She giggled at the though and handed another flower to Cora*
Tell me more about it...?*She smiled at Cora* Almost done!

:::Cora paired the flower with the others she was holding. She side-stepped the request to continue about Terra for just a moment:::
You had to be tricked into kissing Luke? Something tells me that's not one of Kara's most difficult accomplishments. :::She smiled, trying not to chuckle when she thought of Luke being ambushed with a kiss by an excessively hyper fairy:::

*Mystina laughed, and grinned* No, it wasn't too difficult to accomplish, she asked me to do it as a favor... She also had me do a gesture that was not polite, and inform him I drank a bottle of herpes wine for him. I still don't know what herpes wine is but I need to look for it... I mean, there's all forms of wine from different times here, right? It should be there...
*She untangled the last flower and handed it to Cora* I think that's the last one, unless there are some more hidden in there. *She giggled*

:::Cora let out a breath of relief when all of it was out of her hair. She rubbed her scalp with her fingertips:::
Thank you, that would have taken me far too long if I had to do it by myself.
:::Then she looked over at some of the wine bottles slipped into wracks behind the bar:::
Hm... Herpes wine... I've had a lot of the wines here, that one doesn't sound familiar. I've also tried all of the wines they had in Terra and I don't remember any of them being called that. I don't know where Kara knows it from.
:::She considered the rude gesture paired with the comment though, and she thought it probably was a mean-spirited thing to say::: I'm going to guess that it's not good, whatever it is.

*Mystina smiled* You're welcome, I'm glad to help! *She tilted her head over the wine*
Well... Maybe we should ask Luke? I bet he could explain it clearly, he knew what the gesture meant... Maybe he'd know where herpes wine came from. Or what it was made out of.
I WANTED to give her a type of fruit that tasted horrible, just to get back at her, but I don't think I'll be able to aquire any... *she grinned mischeviously* Oh well...

:::Cora grinned::: It would have backfired. Even if the fruit tasted bad, any form of vegetation could be used to produce subsequent specimens and studied for any beneficial properties they might have.
:::She shrugged::: That and Kara would have pretended that she loved the taste, to avoid being defeated. I don't know why she acts the way she does...
:::The way she spied on James and I... maybe its good that she interrupted us... But Cora was already afraid of all the ways Kara could use the information against her:::

*Mystina giggled* Well, I wouldn't mind that... Though I was informed by someone I was not to give her seeds again. I wouldn't want her people to suffer because of how she acted. It should only be upon her only. At least, that is how I was taught.
I think that inside of her, there is a good person someplace... She just chooses not to show it. Which I find to be rather sad. *She sat down in one of the chairs* It may be to protect herself, so that no one can see the real Kara. If no one can see you, no one can hurt you.
*She looked at one of the strands of jewels on the table* I wonder what these are...
((Or she's had so much herpes wine that, really, she can't help but act that way.))

:::Cora decided that she didn't really care why Kara acted the way she did, and instead focused on the strand of jewels Mystina picked up:::
Hm... I don't know. I could have the substance analyzed, but I couldn't tell you if the stone has a common name.
:::She looked down at the rest of her clothes, wondering where her own clothes had gone. She guessed they were back in her room and she hadn't noticed. Not that she minded what she was wearing now. Somehow it seemed to fit just right. She found it comfortable, and flattering:::
Did you know that Kara and Kal come from a time just 20 or so years into a future version of my world?

*Mystina shook her head* No, I didn't know that. I knew that they knew about the brink, though. And about those who came here...
Is your world similar to their world, or is it different? *She tilted her head, curious if Cora had the same hot world as Kal and Kara had.*

:::Cora gave her a look as if to say "You've got to be kidding me":::
Do you remember the suit I wore when we first met?

*Mystina laughed at the look she recieved, and nodded* Yes, I do, but I didn't know if that was something you wore for your occupation or what. The first time I saw you, you were upset, and the next time I saw you I believe you still had the same type of uniform on.
