This is a small field that leads to the lake. The flowers are like a chorus, and they follow you as if you were the sun, their song always being heard. They actually "sing " along with those who sing to them, and it is a very sweet thing. People who come here will be finding it hard to be in a bad mood. The flowers are what makes this field special. They are like hundreds of friends for someone who is lonely. It is truly magical, this place.

X, The Kind Traveler  It was night time, and almost completely dark. Total silence filled the empty field. Suddenly, some of the flowers started to tingle, and then the faint sound of guitar strums could be heard, followed by near silent whistles.The sounds started to get louder, and some flowers opened, lighting up the field.
The siluette of a young man could be seen. Then the song became slowly louder, and seemed like the instruments were changing. The young man sat down, laying against a tree nearby due to fatigue. He had walked for miles, completely alone with nothing but his music and the wilderness for company. The moon came out from the clouds, and the man's eyes glowed a faint blue light. [Song Link]

Caliaphy
Trotting quickly into the field, Caliaphy hummed quietly as she walked. Until she noticed she wasn't the only one who was visiting the flowers today. This aggravated her slightly, but she wasn't about to leave without getting what she came for. Caliaphy began to pick only the normal flowers, just as she had always done. She would never dare pick one that she knew gave off sound. Caliaphy wanted to get her things and get out before she was noticed by whoever was making the flowers "sing". She listened though, and she did think that it was nice. Looking around for a quick moment, Caliaphy could not see anything but a tree in the distance. shrugging her shoulders she went back to work quickly, humming along with the existing tune.

X, The Kind Traveler The man yawned, and heard something move.He took a deep breath, and strummed his guitar again. Then the flowers imitated the sound of the guitar, and both him and the flowers started a string duet. The flowers glowed as they "sang", allowing anyone nearby to see him.
The man yawned again after he finished the song, and his eyes started to get closer. Some dripping noise could be heard, then the reason to his fatigue become clear. He was injured. Blood was dripping from his head and almost all over his body. His shirt was slowly gaining stains of red, and the man closed his eyes.

Caliaphy
As Caliaphy gathered flowers and listened to the music, she wandered much closer to the not so distant tree than she had planned. She looked over quickly at the tree then back down at the flowers in front of her when she saw a man with an instrument. The music had stopped and this caught Caliaphy's attention and she turned her head back towards the man. Curiosity took over and she slowly started to make her way towards him, partly because she had never seen an instrument like his before, and she had never seen him before. The closer she got, the more obvious it was to her that he wasn't alright. Caliaphy moved a little quicker towards him, being cautious that it wasn't a trap or anything.
Once she was under the tree along with him, she knelt down and saw the blood. She gave an aggravated sigh and rubbed her forehead. "I will never catch a break will I..." She groaned under her breath before her demeanor switched from annoyed teenager to concerned nurse. She shook his shoulder gently, and her tone that would have been harsh and rude toward the stranger was soft but stern. "Wake up, you can't close your eyes right now alright?" Caliaphy didn't even wait for a reply before she was ripping the bottom edge of her dress for a makeshift bandage and inspecting the source the source of the blood.

X, The Kind Traveler The man slowly opened his eyes, the glow becoming more visible as he opened his eyes halfway. Panting a bit, the man coughed a little. He looked up to see a woman with blonde hair. He smiled a bit and laughed a little.
"Are you an angel? Or a demon?" He asked, almost in a whisper. The man grunted and coughed as he started to stand up, supporting himself with the tree. "Whatever you are... thank you". He looked at the blond girl and stood silent for a bit. "....I can see your wings"

Caliaphy
Caliaphy backed up a little when the man stood up, out of cautiousness, then she pushed her hair behind her ear. "You're welcome, but you should sit down, just for a little while longer." She spoke softly and sternly. Then she stretched out her wings, looking at them through the corner of her eye, then looking down at the ground. "Yeah... Can't really hide them." She let a hint of sarcasm escape into her voice, but it wasn't meant to be taken wrongly. "What happened to you anyway?"

X, The Kind Traveler The man sighed and looked back at the girl. "Long story short, my family sent one of their search and destroy teams after me again..." He said with a slightly annoyed tone. The man touched his forehead and looked at his hand. "It's still bleeding.."
The man looked at the girl's hand and saw the cloth. He took it and wrapped it on his head with a faint smile. "Again, thanks. My name's X, yours?" he asked in a friendly tone.

Caliaphy
Caliaphy face palmed as he took the cloth, realizing she never even did her job. "I-I'm sorry you stood up and I got cautious-" You could tell through her tone she was embarrassed, and she rubbed her forehead before looking up at him again. "uhm, anyways, I'm Caliaphy yada yada yada. A search and destroy team, huh? Why would your own family want to do that to you?" Caliaphy's tone had switched from embarrassed to not amused to a bit of shock. She was raised in an environment with two extremely loving parents, she didn't even know that parents could treat their child that way. She put a had on her face and leaned her cheek into it, losing all thoughts of caution to thoughts of curiosity.

X, The Kind Traveler X cracked his neck a bit and clicked his jaw. "Ah, much better. Its a pleasure to meet you Miss Caliaphy." He said bowing down to her. "As for why my parents are trying to kil me.... well there's three main reasons..." X said as he scratched the back of his head.
"First off, I was an accidental, I was never planned, and I was everyone's scapegoat." he said with a sad sigh. "Second, they said that I have to do with the worlds colliding, and the main reason as to why we lost half our fortune in the crash, and third, I stole the sword from the family heirloom, Twilight's Guardian." X drew the sword, that was notoriously heavy. He spun it in his palm and sheathed it back. "And if you think that's bad, I stole my father's will, and I get absolutely nothing in it"

Caliaphy
Caliaphy gasped as she listened to him tell her about his parents. All her usual acts of hostility were out the window because she loved her mother and father so, she couldn't even decide what was worse. Her parents being brutally murdered or his not loving him at all. "But you're their child! They should love you no matter what kind of stupid things you do!" she wasn't at all acting like herself, she was just taken aback. "that's so sad.. " Calaipjy was quiet and genuinely sad for X. Then she piped up again. "that's a wonderful weapon even though it is stolen."

X, The Kind Traveler X sniffed a little. "Yeah... I know they should, but not many people appreciate what they have, even if they lose it". He strapped his guitar onto his back and packed away his violin. "As for the sword, it's rightfully mine. I'm the first heir of my family, so I should at least be able to claim ownership of the family's blade." X started to walk away, but turned back to Caliaphy. "Once again thanks, but I'll have to be on my way. Sorry that I can't pay back though, I don't have any money on me. And although I don't have a place to go, I don't think the animals here will very much like a person like me entering their homes."

Caliaphy
Caliaphy gasped slightly as she listened. She just hadn't heard of something like that. "Goodness I just couldn't imagine something like that, my parents were the complete opposite." She watched him as he packed up his instruments, and remembered that she liked the his guitar sounded. "I liked the way you played that thing, it was nice." She pointed to his guitar then crossed her arms and lifted a hand to her cheek, leaning into it. Caliaphy thought for a a couple moments, then before he could leave she piped up quickly. "i have a place for you to stay, if you want it." She thought for a moment if this was a good idea, but then discarded it, she wanted to let people stay at the castle again anyway. Just as it used to be.

X, The Kind Traveler X blushed a little and gulped a bit. "Umm... If it isn't too much trouble..." he said nervously. X turned around, still blushing, and walked closer to Caliaphy. He drew his guitar to play some music along the way. X looked directly into Caliaphy's eyes, and strummed his guitar a bit. "I'll find a way to repay you soon, thanks."
