"Yes I know, all to well." He smiled, thumbed back at the imps. "But I can usually go around unnoticed." He scratched his head. "Feels like I've been wandering around for a little whiel now." SHe was being rather gentle with him, and he quite liked that. Such a nice change.
"Labyrinth?" He hummed the name around in his mouth. "Labyrinth....sounds kinda familiar. Maybe I'm from around here."
He patted his stomach. "I am rather famished. Do yuo have any fruit?"

"Maybe you've....bumped your head." Sounded reasonable, didn't it. Didn't remember who he was or where he was, yet things sounded familiar and he knew the Underdark a little. Made sense to her. But as he patted his stomach she gave a smile. "Of course we do." And she would of told him to stay there and she'd be back...but she feared Jaun and Jell may pop him in their mouths as a snack again. Scooping him up in her palm once more she walked into the kitchen. A few slaves there all still bearing collars, already working on dinner for the night. They exchanged looks, be it because Piper was in there or that fact that she had a thing in her hand, they didn't know. But she grabbed a bowl, chucking several different types of fruits in it and then walked back out into the dining room, setting fairy and bowl both on the table. Pulling over a chair she sat down, elbows propped on the table watching him, resting her chin on the back of her clasped hands. "So, you just...ran across this place?"

He stood, tore out a chunck of apple, and sat on the side of the bowl to eat it. juice dripped down his arms, but he doidn't seem to mind. "Thank you very much." He munched.
"I thought of that possiblity when i ralized I couldn't remeber anything. But I don't have any head injuries." He shrugged, "but there could be any reason for that. I am qite small afterall. Doens't take much to knock me out."
The bit of apple snapped in his teeth. "Basically, yeah. I don't know hwere I'm going, so I just choose a direction and hope for the best."
He looked around agian. "And what is Triumverate Fortress?"

"Triumverate Fortress is...home." Yes indeed it was and she better get used to that idea, right? Though she regarded him with a smile as he at that apple, she herself picking a strawberry from the bowl and snacking on it. "Yes, your size does make it very possible that you can easily get knocked out and thus get amnesia of sorts." A thoughtful look before her triple colored eyes, still a little dull, went back to the fairy. "But you're welcome to stay here. Don't worry, Jaun and Jell won't try eating you again." Because she said so. "So then, what shall I call you until you remember your name?"

"Home you say? That may have been hwere I was headed. But then aain, maybe I was heading away from home." He smiled.
"I suppose I'll stay here for now. No better place at the moment, I think." He kept looking around while sancking, mowing his way through that bit of apple. "Not a bad place certanly." he laughed. "The imps wn't catch em off gaurd again. I've learned my lesson."
He licked juice off his fingers and arms. "I suppose you can call me Blue for now, since that is what I am. It will do for now."

Onyx finished brushing her hair, being all shiny and pretty now, and let her up, though he noticed she tensed.
"Anything else I can help you with or do for you?"
Malik nodded, and took the two items, and stepped on the redish shimmering portal expecting Kieran to follow, which translocated them to the mail floor at the top of the stairs leading down below.
"Piper? are you about?"

"Alright then, Blue it is." You know...her life focused around a lot of blue, didn't it? But another smile to him. "Good, it's nice to have new people around, makes this big place more lively." A look to the imps then back to Blue. "As my father says, it's best we learn from our mistakes the first time me make them, so as not to repeat them and have to learn all over again." Piper finished off her strawberry, resting her chin on her hands again like before. "The place and the way things are done take a little getting used to, but not much." Then a look over when she heard her name called. "In the dining room a'mael."
Kieran followed with all too much zest, as per usual behavior. "Nifty."

He chuckled. "Then I must have made a pretty big mistake somewhere along the lines. Means I have some big lesson comming up." He look to the imp twins. "I mean, bigger lessons."
He stood and falpped his wings a bit. "I'm pretty accomodating. After all, I'm small. I don't eat much, and it doesn't cost anything to cloth me. I don't need a room, I can sleep on a pillow just aobut anywhere in the house." He smiled again. "I'll get used to how things are done real quick."
"I-I think I'm all right for now, thanks." She cleared her throat. "I really should be getting back. I'm sure the Oracle needs me for something."
She went to the door, opened it. "I suppose I aught to say goodbye to my host though. Would it be rude of me to leave, without first thanking him?" By him she meant Malik. By say goodbye she meant to remind him of his appointment with Meilikki.

"WHo knows, may be for the best, right Blue?" And then another smile at him as he procliamed himself a highly managable guest, seeing as he listed all of his pros abotu himself. He had his point, being so small he didn't need much and didn't require much at all. Though she was a little dascinated by him...never say a fairy with feathers before. Piper grabbed another strawberry to munch on. "So, are you a fairy or just something akin to one? Forgive the question, but I've never seen something like you."

He chuckled and pulled back a long feather, looking at it, turing it at different angles. "I am a bit odd, aren't I? Who would have dreamt up a fairy with feathers?" He chuckled. "If I recall corretly, and I'm not saying that I do, I'm a bit of a genetic experiment, DNA splicing or some such science." He waved a hand vaugly in the air. "I wasn't born in any natural sense." He out the tip of his finger to his lipe. "I suppose you could say Iw as grwon. I'm not even sure if I'm remebering this right, mind you." He smiled. "Do elves know anything of such sciences?"

"Go ahead. It woudl be nice to at least say goodbye."
A little disappointment in the voice there. he didn't want her to leave. Maybe he'd make up for it by tormenting his twin or something.
"Will you be coming back, you think?"
Malik walked to teh dining room, and over to piper, lightly resting his hands on ehr hips like he had before, and kissing her on the cheek lightly. then a look at the imps.
"Behaving are we?"
And then to the...fairy thing.
"and what is that?"

He got a flinch...which she wanted to die over. How could she flinch at his affections...that was horrible. But she couldn't help it really. A look to Malik then one to the feathered fairy. "INdeed, I know an elf who knows of such sciences." A point to Malik. Indeed, he used to do that kind of thing back home...she always tried not to think about it. A look back to Malik and then a point to the fairy. "He's a fairy of sorts. Though we think he hit his head becaue hsi memory is fuzzy, can't even remember his name. Right now we're calling him Blue." A nod and a tug at her collar then a look down to the fairy again. "Blue, this is my fiance' Malik and the other elf taking to studying you is my father Kieran."
Studying indeed. Hey now, why wouldn't he right? But at least he was being polite about it, not poking at Blue or anything of the sorts. And a look to Jaun and Jell, who weren't at the moment dsetroying thigns. "You know when you two try hard enough you're quite well behaved." His eyes went to PIper. "And where did you find him?"
"In Jaun's mouth."
"Spoke too soon."
"I also found Terran's horse...and now Nightmare isn't too pleased with me in the least."

Blue slid of the bowl rim to stand on his feet. He gave a little bow to Malik. "Pleasure to meet you, Mailk. I hope I am not intruding to much into your solitude." He griined sheepishly. "I beg your pardon for me...sloppy disposition but there isn;t much I can do about being swallowed. Or nearly so." He nodded his head to Kieran. "Good day sir. A scholar I see? Interesteing, really. Can you tell me," he stretched out a wing, "Do these look more like owl feathers, or maybe hawk feathers...or what? It's been really bugging me for..." he scratched his head. "I suppose for some time now."
They came out of their trance like stare for a moment to regard K-man. They whispered. "He's really tastey. Do you tihnk if..." Jell pointed at Piper, made an odd face, Jaun pretended to whistle "..wasn't here, we could take a bite?"
"All right then." She headed down the stairs,he legs a tad shakey from the hot water. "I will be comming back to visit." She hoped that was a promiss that she could keep. She tried a soft smile. "As I said before. I need freinds." God knew she only had Meilikki and Warhammer where she was going. "And You can come see me too. Malik has the coordinates. Or if you want, follow the rumors outside Lostargace. They aught to lead you to us."

Malik looked at Piper.
"hey..raising the dead and creating living things isn't really in the same category there.."
He didn't mind the flinch so much. he knew it woudl take time. but to get her used to them, he had to give them to her. and other look at Blue.
"Almost looks like a blue skinned brownie with wings. but at least he knows to show respect and manners. that is nice."
Then a look to the twins.
"Your phasing is over in about two hours. I suggest you enjoy your time. and why do you insist on eating things? You're both lucky Nightmare hasn't eaten one of you. and as for Terran's horse.."
Back to Piper.
"Nightmare is not angry with you, I'm sure. more angry that I'll wager Nieran and Serino are giving her attention that Nightmare feels is due to her. the breed are much like the drow, or Tier'dal. those in charge expect all the obediance and attention."
Onyx smiled brightly, showing fangs.
"I'll see about visiting. and if not I do hope you get to come back, anytime you know. we're not going anywhere."
Especailly without the totem he gave back to Morelle.
"I'll always be your friend. no matter what, adn I'll protect you from anything if you have a need of me, Whirlwind."
