Welcome to Gaia! ::

Oh, bother Seth thought to himself, leaning against the doorway of the chamber. His hood was placed to cover up the cloth that covered his eyes. Technically, Seth was a part of the council representing the Myrukan people. Nobody stated that he had to sit with the others, however. The constant chatter of the civilians already gathered was begining to hurt his ears. Even worse, the hairs on the back of his neck told him that he was being watched, by a great many people. Myrukans were few, and Seth still had his weapons on him, which was allowed by the guards due to his status and disability. For all the civians knew however, he could be an assassin. His head snapped in Rikku's direction as she spoke, the only voice to catch his attention. He had never truely met her before, but she sounded young. Even without his eyes he could tell who she was, the respect was tangible in the air. Seth could feel who she was. Though he could almost always remember a person's voice, hers always seemed to leave his mind after hearing it. A phenominon that puzzled him, but he could not be bothered to look into. He knew who she was, and would every time she spoke.

He dropped his head moments later however, keeping the blindfold out of sight. If they noticed he was Myrukan, they would most surely know he was their representitive. Seth didn't want to be bothered to sit, and speak with his so called equals. Seth was a man, outcast by other men and accepted by those who are like him, his opinion would mean little difference on the council anyway. So, he waited, and listened to what the meeting would tell. Hopefully he wouldn't need to get involved. Though, some things that were brought up during meetings really did seem worthless to Seth, and it made him wonder why he had to drag himself here to listen to them. Sighing, his left hand pulled the cloak's hood down just a little lower, as he continued to wait.

Sunia sat on a flower as fairy size and watched the insects around her. She saw a bettle roll over on it's back and went to help it back to it's feet. "There you go." She smiled and the bettle went on his way. She flue strait up and looked around the area for anything the could harm the insects or animals. "Hm..." She looked in all directions.

Rikku sat at the table looking around. The Myrukan council member... maybe he got lost or something.... "We are missing one." She said looking at the empty chair at the council, and scanning the crowd before seeing Seth standing on the other side of the room, leaning up against the door way.

"Well we cannot start the meeting until all members of the council are here." One of the older men on the council said setting his hands on the table.

"Yes we can... The Myrukan Representative, has told me that he has urgent matters to attend to, and he will be unable to attend this meeting. I told him that his presence will be missed and I would really wish for him to be here but I understand." She said making up a lie so that He didn't have to move, the councilmen shook his head and mumbled something under his breath, but just sat back in his chair. Rikku stood out of her chair and began to speak. "I now call this meeting to begin, if I am not mistaken we are here to talk about the Day of Oracles that is coming in a couple of weeks." She said looking to the other Councilmen to see if they had anything to add.

Maia sighed loudly, "Finally, we're starting." Her voice carried loudly, and she cringed, "Whoops," She added in a mere whisper, "That was unfortunate." She peered around, seeing potential enemies contained together in the same room was a laugh, in her opinion, they struggled to make peace. Unfortunately, it was an act she'd seen before, tribes and whole races always attempted to create some sort of peaceful bond, only to have it shattered by one person, always one person...

Maia groaned and looked up to the ceiling, quietly this time. She liked being in charge, but no one seemed to like having an old spirit like her around, she was at first jealous of Rikku when she was born, but after a trial of events, the kitsune became attached to the girl. She now spent most of her idle time following Rikku, making sure she was okay, like a guardian angel.

Sunia spotted Mizu and the Lizard Man in the distance. "Whats going on?" She flue a little closer and then took behind a tree. She remained quit as she sat down on a leaf to watch. Scared she wanted to run, fly far away, but she was frozen in place. This is a big problem, a very big problem. She looked around and then watched Mizu go back into the water. Carefully she took to the sky as got closer to the dead Lizard Man. Taking to her human size she landed gently onto the ground. She got down to her knees and closed his eyes. "May you rest in peace." She said as one tear fell from her eye. "A life ended to quick." She stood back up and walked to the edge of the water. Her wings began to moved and she lifted off the ground. Pushing her self foreword, she began to go over to water looking at what was happening below. I need to tell the leader of the Lizerd Men about this.

This is what Seth was hoping not to happen, one hwere he would have to get involved. Standing, he placed his bow back in it's holster, and made his way through the crowd of people, towards the council. "Calm yourself priestess, you are the will of this land. Act in front of your people as respectably as that role implies." Seth said, calmly sitting down in his chair, albeit hesitantly. He did not turn to the councilman that had spoken out, the priestesses point had been made. Due to the tribes closenesswith the lizardmen the Myrukan people were attending the festival as well. If the councilman spoke up again Seth would assist in silencing him, ending the issue. "As for the matter at hand, burn the crops, destroy the farms, but leave the people be. They can well enough survive without their homes, for a time." Seth spoke, after clearing his throat. I'd better not regret taking part in this meeting. he thought to himself, pulling his hood back, and removing his blindfold. They knew what he was, there was no use in the blindfold now. Running a hand through his hair Seth sat back, straight in his chair.

While waiting for the other councilmen's, particularly the priestesses reaction, Seth began to ponder if he would attend the festival. Probably not, there was always stuff to do, and little time to do it. Then again, he had never missed the festival. He didn't get to see his people very often anymore either. Putting it into the back of his mind Seth scanned his useless eyes across the council chamber, already regretting saying something.
