He snapped back to the present. "Oh, nothing. I was just thinking of the training regeame I had to go through." He said. "It was very difficult, even for the warriors of my city." He looked back into the past. "It tested all your strength, will, endurance, heart, and devotion." He said, looking at all the tests he went through. (I'm signing off for now, my friend wants to use the computer for a while since I've been on all day. So see you later.)

Walking briskly back to his room to assure himself solitude, when he came upon a small crowd of servants, escorting someone -no, not just someone, the Queen Takara- away. She was apparently unconscious. He stopped to watch them go before returning to his room. It was none of his business and he would not involve himself, no matter how curious the situation was. Then he felt a flickering sensation in his mind, as if someone had turned on a light, then quickly shut it off, but it wasn't a switch to some light in his head. It was that switch that allowed one to talk to the Gods. He remembered it clearly, and wondered (with much hope of course) if Hosvanji had, in fact, survived. He knew it was all wishful thinking and that death could not be reversed, even for the Gods. Then who? It didn't seem like they were trying to contact him, in fact there had been only one other God and one Goddess that knew he existed AND worked for Hosvanji. The God had been the figurehead for an ancient religion, the name forgotten in Cedric's mind. The Goddess had been an elemental, of which he could also not remember. The two had spoken with him once, and had never played a prominent role during his life, hence his forgetfulness.

((I finally caught up with all the reading xD))
Tamurils eyes opened slowly, as the blur that he saw faded and the image of a ceiling appeared. He looked around himself, noticing he was in the infirmary.
Tamuril slowly got up. He was beggining to regain his strength. All he could remember was talking with Takara before passing out several minutes after that. As Tamuril kept on trying to remember what had happened, the doctor entered the room. "Oh, you're finally awake I see." Tamuril's eyes blinked, he was confused why he was there."If you're wondering why you're here, it's because it appears you had been poisoned, an odor and tasteless poison. It must have been snuck into your food. You're lucky to be alive, if it were anyone else they would have probably been dead."Tamuril clenched his fists. He had gotten careless, even if he could not smell or taste it. "I feel fine now, I'l be going." The doctor was going to say no, but he knew it was pointless to try and stop Tamuril.
Tamuril quickly got on his clothes and armor, and walked outside. Quickly after he left the infirmary though, a Guard ran up to him and told him the news of Takara. "Thank you. I shall go and make sure it doesn't happen again." Tamuril ran through the halls, searching for her private garden. It only took him a few minutes to locate it, he did know the castle like the back of his hand.
Tamuril stood outside the door. He knocked on it, he didn't enter though, it was her private garden after all. "My queen, I have heard the incident that occured with you, are you all right?" Tamuril still felt bad. If he weren't unconscious he may have been able to prevent it.

Takara turned her head when she heard Tamuril's voice from behind the one door that led to the garden. One last glance at the statue of Alexia and she stood up, walking over to the door. She still hadn't answered, and wouldn't until the door was open. She unlocked the door, stepping back as she opened it. There he was, looking a little pale but nevertheless like himself.
"I am fine." She replied as she put the key away and kept her eyes at him. "You look ill." She added before she turned her head and looked over at the fountain. "Do you want to come out?" Saying 'come in' wouldn't make any sense because the garden was outside. Takara's eyes flickered back over to him, though her head didn't move.

Tamuril breathed a sigh of releif. At least she wasn't hurt, by the sounds of it. Than he thought, had he still looked ill? He did know all of his energy hadn't yet returned to him.
Tamuril looked at her deeply. He turned his eyes away for a few seconds. "It appears I had been...poisoned...shamefully without my knowing...the doctor said it was a poison called Dorgoth Brandy." tamuril had once heard of the brandy, but he knew little of it. It was supposeldy a very rare poison that was said to be very lethal.
Moving away from the subject, before he became red with embarrasment. "Uhh, sure." tamuril stepped into the garden, looking around it. Compared to the other one, this garden seemed quite nice. The plants seemed to flourish quite nice here. It didn't take him long to notice the statue of Alexia. Tamuril walked up to, observing the stone statue. "This is..Alexia, is it not? If I remember correctly, she was Goddess of wind. She looks quite beautiful." It had been awhile since Tamuril last seen a statue this well crafted before.

Dorgoth Brandy. Takara watched Tamuril pass her, shutting the door as her eyebrows went together. It seemed as if Tamuril had somehow gained an enemy of some type. Once the door was locked she walked up next to him, wondering who it was who had poisoned him. He should be dead now. Takara's eyes stayed on the back of his head before she said anything, looking at Alexia.
"Yes. Alexia is the goddess of the wind, knowledge, and everything pure." Takara told him as she looked at the statue. The statue stood tall and proud, wearing a long sleeve-less gown. Her feet were bare, and one hand held a harp while the other held a feather. The feather was long, and it circled around the entire statue to where it looked more like a whip than something from a bird. Alexia held the feather over her head to the side, and water ran down the feather. There were parts where the feather was cut and so water would pour down.
"I believe that she is the maker of the diamond of the wind." Takara added as she looked up at Alexia's face, the goddess's voice still going through her mind. She fingered the clear diamond around her neck, a warm feeling going through her hand. "...Her voice is very clear..." The queen stated, though her voice was hushed as she was remembering the goddess's voice. "...It almost sounds as if she's singing...."

Khnui He snapped back to the present. "Oh, nothing. I was just thinking of the training regeame I had to go through." He said. "It was very difficult, even for the warriors of my city." He looked back into the past. "It tested all your strength, will, endurance, heart, and devotion." He said, looking at all the tests he went through. (I'm signing off for now, my friend wants to use the computer for a while since I've been on all day. So see you later.) Karasi smiled and nodded. "It sounds like something one of the elders told me once. He said that the training had been very strict when he was young, He could not pass the requirements, and thus had been sent back to our village." Karasi remembered that conversation quite clearly, for it had been just before she left. He had told her not to be to dissapointed if she failed in her goals. She had no fear of that however. If the girl could not get training here, she would find another who would train her, bring her up to hte level she needed to be at. Anything she needed to do to gain entrance to the Royal Guard, as well as the Mage Divisions. They had now reached the central courtyard. Karasi did not see anyone, she supposed that she had been welcomed in while the one that was to meet her was being informed of her arival. Who was to meet her, Karasi did not know. Still, it was probably better taht she had arrived before them, as she did not want to make a bad impression on anyone here.

Tamuril kept on staring at the statue, until he head something quite awkward. "Her voice is clear? You can hear her?" Tamuril tried hard to hear anything, but nothing came. He expected that much. Maybe it was because of that jewel she was wearing.
Tamuril walked out to the balcony. The fresh air was refreshing, considering he'd been unconscious in a solitary room for a little bit. He had taken a couple deep breaths, enjoying them. He turned around and looked back at Takara. He was wondering what she was thinking, it was always so hard to even try. She seemed either very moody, depressed, or something he couldn't put his finger on.

He looked at Karasi. "Yes, your training can be difficult too. But ours...." He paused for a sec. "Tended to put people into comas if they weren't careful and refused to acknowledge one's own limitations." He said to her. "I almost went into one, but I was able to achieve what we called ckaskh-ehuehi." He looked into the courtyard. "Which is basically a higher form of mind over matter, to a point where one can basically go berserk and still see friend from foe" He looked back at her. "Although I haven't quite mastered it yet, it helped stay out of a coma and keep me sane."
