Off in the distance, you could tell whenever the wind was still, Rheaus was practicing his spear skills, keeping sharp as ever. The need for this was not felt or seen in more recent experiences at the school or in the dimension as a whole, really; not being the warrior he was seemed to be an aftershock of the fall from the throne, and though it may not have seemed to be boiling beneath the surface the Zora was exploding now with furious strikes at nothing. It was likenable to a cup of superheated water: so hot it didn't boil; but as soon as an impurity is introduced... Bang. This was the reaction, but the catalyst surely was the battle. Everyone was focused on healing, but the prince knew war too well to rest after one battle.
Eventually, though, the Zora would have to take a break, especially at the pace he was going. His bowl had been left by one of the drinking fountains. Goddess, how he hated that water! But he supposed if it never actually tasted it with his lips it would be at least bearable. As he filled up his bowl he caught the eyes of a strangely studious and somewhat stoic-looking man sitting there with legs staggered. He gave a nod.
"You aren't training? You're lucky," he said shrugging. "Scholars have it easy."

The fae glanced up when he was pulled from his studious world by a voice. Sharp eyes watched the other, then softened as he blinked and realized the person was simply being polite. Or as polite as the words that came from his mouth were. "I suppose it can be seen as 'easy,' " he muttered, checking his place in the book before closing it, not even bothering to mark his page. "But I also enjoy it." He stretched his neck, then rolled the weariness off of his shoulders. "I am a mental fighter anyways, not a physical one. Though I suppose one of my techniques is useful for only deterring a battle."
"Mm... I suppose that's fair." Rheaus shook the testosterone out of his head, gently, or at least off the tip of his frontal lobe in the form of a droplet of sweat solution: one third Zora sweat, two fifths debris, and the rest an approximation of "water" from the tap system.
"That may have come out wrong," he said as he partially idolised the man and his mental abilities. "The goddesses have given each man his birthright. This is undeniable. If you are satisfying your own directive, then I have nothing but congratulations for you. As I say, for some this is not so easy." At this moment introduction time was almost up.
"I am Rheaus, Prince of Zoras." He was feeling good today so he decided to leave the title in. "In times of war the throne must fight with the plebeians, so here I am." Feeling the sting of awkwardness, Rheaus pointed to the book to give the man a turn to share.
"What is it you study, mental warrior?"

Goddesses? Mm. How strange it was to Dante to think of someone that he would give his own worship to. He supposed a god or goddess would have to prove him or herself to the fae before he would provide energy for them. He wondered if this entity had met them personally or if he was someone that was blindly introduced to a faith and was asked to follow it of his own choosing.
"I commend you on your own physical prowess as well," Dante said with a nod. "I would not choose to be on the battlefield beside you. I would be quite the burden, but I am certain that you could hold your own."
"Dante Pierce," he finally said, offering a pale hand with painted nails for the other. "I study the plane of the mind, and I specialize in the subconscious. You could say that analyzing dreams and nightmares are... a hobby of mine."
Dreams? That sounds like work for the bloated intellectuals in the Hylian states. Hm... No, I mustn't think that. There were plenty in the Great Bay who studied the mind. Perhaps this man... No, that's ridiculous. He wouldn't know theories from another world.
"That seems like it takes quite a bit of study; forgive me if I say I don't think it sounds very sure." Rheaus glanced at his spear as he said this to imply the alternative in terms of sureness. Then he took his hand when offered. So smooth. There hardly any signs the man ever left his books...
"Well met. I'm sure you aren't Hylian," Rheaus said making note of Dante's rounded ears, "would it be too much to ask what race you are?" This was a funny question coming from the only Zora in this dimension, but often the curious are illdefined.

"That it does," Dante said with a coolness to his voice. "I have been studying the subconscious since I was five." When the man looked to his spear, the fae's eyes followed to land on it as well. Even when provoked with thoughts geared towards another's mind, this being turned to violence.
"Well met. No, I am not Hylian, nor do I know of these beings in the 'Great Bay'; however, I am a nightmare fae. My apologies on having no other beings like yourself in this plane. I do hope that you are able to find many friends while you are here, though."
"I see... Quite a long time to study anything. It's impressive." At this point there seemed to be some kind of story waiting in the Zora's eyes. He dismissed it, though, opting to focus on the word "Fae."
"Fae, you say... That seems familiar." You could practically see the ghost of the thought repossess its former connection. "Ah yes, I remember. In Black Magic it was used for little beings made of fire. Where I'm from they're called fairies... Forgive my ignorance, but you don't look like--unless!" Rheaus seemed astonished at his new thought. So much so that he took a step back in awe.
"The only fairies taking human form, that I know of, are the great fairies! ... You aren't one of those, are you?" Prince Rheaus was like an innocent little kid. All he had was questions for the world, because all he had was answers for himself.

Age: 16 || Species: Fairy/Naiad|| Status: Tree spying || Money:$Alek$
Elfriede was just walking around the school when she noticed Rheaus talking to some stranger. She stared at them for a second and then stealthily moon walked to the nearest leaf-heavy tree and climbed up it. If Alek had put the camera's up beforehand she'd have nice footage of whatever they were talking about. Laying against the trunk as she sat on a branch and watched them, she tried her hardest to look as inconspicuous as possible. 'Don't mind me, just watching you guys every so often from a tree.' She thought to herself, pulling out some of her snacks to munch on to help with her nonchalant look and because she was hungry.

Ashnight's cat ears twitched as she glanced at the girl in the tree and narrowed her eyes but smirked as she watched to see what the girl was doing. She mumbles a word and a cat demon appears and looks at her. She looks at the cat at it grins at her and runs over to the girl. It meows as it sits next to the girl and grins showing fangs as its red eyes glistened from the sun's reflection.
Elfriede was doing a pretty good job so fa- 'And what is that?' She thought to herself as a pitch black cat with red eyes and sharp teeth looked at her. So much for her 'not being here' routine. Elfriede stared back at the cat for a long while. Mentally she was gauging what to do, physically, she was munching with a straight face. Obviously, between the can and the Spider from Skyrim, the cat was less creepy. She could handle that. Reaching in her bag, she found a pack of fish shaped teriyaki. She held it up and tossed it, hoping the cat would take the bait and leave her alone. It was imping on her personal space.

if you want to know what spider she's talking about, go and look at the fairgrounds forum in the Augustine town center.

Ashnight Rose

The cat just looks at what she had thrown and looked at her like serious?! Do I look like a dog to you??? As it moves to her lap and lays there watching the person she was previously watching. Ashnight snickers from where she is watching she has always found her shadow cats different personalities amusing.

But that focus was quickly broken as the girl and now a new person began chatting over them.
Dante sighed gently, standing and holding the book under his arm. "My apologies, but I am unable to concentrate at the moment, and I do have quite a few assignments for both school and my own work to attend to. Perhaps if we pass again, we can discuss this topic further. It was a pleasure talking to you."
With a quick wave, Dante strolled off towards his dorm. [exeunt]
Elfriede sighed and just laid there under the large creepy cat. Glancing at the food she just lost to the ground she sighed again. When she noticed that one of the people she was listening in on noticed her, she sighed even louder. "Cat, you just gave up a perfectly good meal, and for that, I cannot forgive you." She muttered, giving in and scratching the big black thing behind the ears. Her eye twitched a little and she caught a glimpse of something silver. Turning her head to full attention she noticed a cat girl watching what was happening. Putting two and two together, Elfriede waved at the girl. "Is this your cat? It has too much sass, can you take it back?"

The cat purred as she scratched its ears. Ashnight looked up at the girl and saw her amusement was over and replied"Sure and sorry about its sass they tend to thing fetching is a dogs job." She causally walks over to the food she had dropped earlier for the cat and sat on the the floor before looking at the cat as the cat looks back at her as if they are having a silent conversation. The cat takes its time and gets up as it stretches and lightly smacks the girls face with its tail as it leaps down and nibbles at the food Ashnight was holding out to it. She giggles quietly at her cat smacking the poor girls face. She quickly says"sorry about that too and im Ashnight by the way."
Elfriede blinked lightly at the tail smack."Where is Alek? It's his job to get tail smacked." She muttered to herself. "--F" She said. Looking down at the cat who finally decided that it's sass couldn't fill it's stomach. Elfriede waved off the apology. "It's fine, Sassy McSassington was just reminding me why I don't pay a certain knucklehead to work for me. It's nice to meet you Ashnight. My name is Elfriede, but you may call me Elfi, or Fluer."
