 ((lol far from it... i guess I'll start))
It was nighttime. The moon cast its eerie glow through the long windows of stone onto the wall. There were two high windows that the moonlight shown through into the mirror. This room was part of an old castle; almost no one entered anymore, except for the occasional wanderer. Its walls were stone, and the outside bore ornate carvings. the building itself was gothic style, complete with towers, dungeons, and flying buttresses. The room was large; probably about three stories high and 200 feet across; all stone. In it was a lone, full sized mirror hanging on the wall; embossed in silver framing with intricate swirls and designs. Along the other walls of the room, there were miscellaneous hooks, nails, and wires, revealing that this room was once used for something. Now only the mirror remains.
There was no person inside the room, yet someone was there. No human, animal, ghost, or any other form of being stood in front of the mirror. Yet, there was a clear reflection of a small girl sitting on the ground. Her legs were crossed and she was looking up at the moon and the myriad of stars. But it wasn't the reflection of the moon; she was looking out at the real moon. The real moon, which cast its glow over her face, even though she was facing it through the mirror, which "reflected" all things.
But Tsukiko wasn't really in the room. She was in the mirror. Therefore, she could look out onto real life, without taking a part in it.
This was the way that Tsukiko had lived every day of her life for years and years. Each day grew as only a passage to the next day. This cycle continued through years. The only joy in a day was that it was one day closer to the end of a month, and the end of a year. Tsukiko never knew why this aroused a slight excitement her, but that was the way she lived her life.
((sorry for that novel post lol... had to start it off with a nice description))

Leon sat on the roof of the castle, absorbing the light emanating from the full moon. His veil covered the blind, blank eyes, his face lay emotionless, as if he were simply a doll. He had been sensing a presence in the room below him. His power was now restored, and he no longer needed meditation, he grabbed the edge of the roof and swung into an open window in the room below. The room seemed empty, but he still knew there was someone here. He looked to a mirror, witch seemed to be the source of it. He felt the rim of the mirror, and looked into it. "You sit here for countless days and ours... why?"

Will sat under a tree, reading by the light of the moon. Next to him was a stack of more books that he had checked out from the library. He was reading a book on constellations. He looked up and started to recite some he had learned; Big Dipper; little dipper; orion;-He stopped mid sentence. He had heard a voice in the castle. He always sat by the tree but never heard a voice(although he had seen some adventurers go in and walk out). He put down his book, picked up his wand, and ran towards and in the castle.

Tsukiko smiled at the fact that someone knew she was there. During the night, she could move freely without mimicking other peoples' movements. The reflection of the girl stood up and looked at the child with the eyes of a wise old woman. There was bliss somewhere in these eyes now; most of the time they were blank. The mirror's rim protruded out into carvings that seemed to tell a story with no words.
Smiling a faint smile, Tsukiko held her palm to the surface, her fingers delicately brushing the edge of where her world ended and the real world began.

Leon took his fingers off the rim, he did not smile back. "A mirror dweller..." He said softly, he held his palm to meet hers, he felt a sudden warmth. He removed his hand and searched in his pouches, then held up a tag. "Do you want to come out?" He said, the tag had some symbols that looked like magic.

Will ran right into the large building. He saw many stairs and climbed them. When he got up, he saw a door. He was pretty sure this was the hight from which he had heard the voice. He opened, went in. He saw two beings. One behind a large mirror. Another offering a tag of some sort to the other. The one behind the mirror he had read about in a very rare and difficult book. Known as Arisedians, they were rare and trapped behind mirrors he recalled. At night they may run free Will remembered. Although the second was hard to guess, will figured that he was part of the race of Joulas. Will had no expression on his mouth but his eyes were slightly closed looking at the beings far taller than him. The Arisedian wasn't tall but Will was still probably atleast a foot shorter at a pitite 3 foot 6 inches.

Leon quickly turned around, dropping the tag and drawing a dagger. He held the knife tip almost to his neck. "What are you doing here?" He questioned. He examined the rod he carried and the way he was dressed.

Will smiled in amusement at how the Joulas had reacted and felt. Then put on a straight face and said, "Allow me to explain myself before you take drastic measures.". "I'm a young child, only seven years of age, and came here to investigate a voice I had heard. I was only coming here out of my own defense. This isn't quite what I expected but it happened." He continued. "Please forgive me if you feel intruded in on your own buisness but seeing as I was in the area, reading under a nearby tree, I felt that it was my buisness as to who was within my location that I was not aware of. I don't lie so you had ought to believe me." Will finished.

Leon acknowledged Will's smile, then sheathed his dagger, the response was satisfactory. "I can tell that you speak the truth, Apprentice. I apologize for my violent actions, But I advise you to take leave, this is no place for a human youth to be on such a night." Leon picked up his tag. He turned back to Tsukiko.

Tsukiko was indeed impressed that the other being had one of the items necessary to restore her freedom. She gave him a surprised smile. By this time, a small boy had entered the room, yet his age seemed to be deceptive. He appeared to have the mind of a superior being, even though he was human. Tsukiko held her palm against the surface again, and this time, a voice was audible. It wasn't that of an old woman, but a child with the old woman's experience. Her lips did not move as she spoke.
"Yes, I have seen a handful of dangers in this castle..." she said before turning to the other being who's race was only a legend to Tsukiko. "I see that you have the seal to preform the ritual, but that is not all it takes to restore my mobility in your dimension..." she said with a smile at both of them. "Thank you though, you seem very kind."

"This is not the ritual you think it is, let's see how this will go..." Leon said before sticking the tablet to the mirror, it cracked unevenly down the middle, but did not shatter. "Try stepping out." He said before stepping backward.

Will watched closely and intently at what the Joulas was doing. He knew it was a spell. But one he had scarcely read of and new little about. Never the less will did not leave. He stayed to watch and nobody could stop him. He glanced out the window and noticed rain clouds. He knew it would rain soon. But his books were in the back of his mind at the moment. Will was fixed on the mirror.
