Welcome to Gaia! ::

The princess nodded smiling. "Yes it does and why I myself don't go near it. I too can use fire based abilities. Though in this mine they had found a few various crystals that seemed alive. Pulsing with energy as if it was a heartbeat in it's self. This you can see various obstacle courses as well as a target field." She said pointing out as a few people ran into large crystal pillars trying to figure out the quicker movements.

Though it seemed no matter how the pillars was hit took no damage from people crashing into them and people balaning on the top barely even moved it showed.

The princess giggles a little as she points to a young girl looking around age 9. "you see that little girl in the fire like dress? she is a first year new blood. Just turned a few days ago. see the orb of light above her? it follows as a glowing line forms to show her progress." The girl took off fast as the light zipped over spots turning color if getting too close and turns red if she crashed which she did into a crystal which lit up the person on the top wobbled a little and yet kept balance.

"You see it is to help control and master when to turn if you fail you hit the obstacles, the impact is absorbed into the crystal as energy and this line tells you where you need more focus based on the color. which those who mater martial combat must learn to master balance no mater what." And just as the princess explained that one young boy jumped up to switch legs ending flipping himself by hitting himself in the head with his leg flipping off being caught by one of the teachers. "this is just kinda like a exercise yard not only for guards, But just training to get used to daily movements after the change. Over here as you see people throwing energy or elements making these crystals light up.

The teacher will do it then have the student copy the pattern kinda like a real life simon says color pattern match game. We reward with special toys and play time those who do good. They even get tokens to go buy something like a blood and chocolate milkshake. or blood cake to treat themselves, We make it challenging per level of activity. first days get an escort or holding their hand through it until they are comfortable enough to do it on their own. Kinda like when someone first learns o ride a horse they got someone more skilled near them to keep them from falling off."

The princess said showing her to the areas where there was a water pool and a human stood making the water move to entertain a group of youngsters that had not yet found their elemental power. "that is where your sister will help retain her water powers. Those kids well they had an illness but had alot of potential and so mom had them turned. they still have not found their element or those who had just sit when resting between different courses to be amazed with a show of water art. there are several humans here yes. But under guard those who well have not chosen to be immortal.

They are more to be donors. Also there is a cafe where humans and vampires help train the young turns how to feed without killing. you will be requested to participate as your sisters feeding source, You need not to worry though. We first use a fake blood soll it is an elastic leather crafted blood skin. Kinda like a water skin but it holds donated blood instead of water. it is the beginning training that way a person does not die if someone can not fight the feeding urge. Also at the cafe you can sit and relax having meals like normal with Lyra. We got non blood made foods. like cakes and regular milkshakes. the ones with blood added are vampire only foods. So as you can see we do offer a wide veriety of training for newly turned blood immortals. It's a more accepted term then just vampire.

So I must say it is wise not to just yell out the term vampire specially if your well not one. Because of the past vampires where seen as blood thirsty never quenching their thirst monsters and usually got humans out numbering them to kill them as that word was screamed out. So it have become a less likeable term.Your sister might just start out guided running laps around the circle part of the mine. so she can get used to her speed without much turning this way and that which could be more difficult for her right away." the princess explained.

Sinestra took Lyra's hand at a ramp to a lower level which was the circle that was a gradual turn. Helping her to walk at human speed. "Thats it just creep your muscles. This area is a subtle turning area to get you used to your speed first to help you adjust to ho fast you go I will hold your hand to help you so just keep up with my speed if you can we will walk in a circle normal like a human like your used to walking. and when your ready just enjoy the thrill of the speed and adjust gradually as you need Lyra sweety." Once she walked like a human speed a few people zipped out up the ramp appearing and walking like humans at the top of the ramp.

Specially when the break bell rang "Base circle break the queen has a new turn needing full access." rang out all over and people zip over to watch.

"There now wasn't that rather easy to do? now have you walked in a circle like this before?" moving at human speed she made a single small circle in front of Lyra then stopped. "If you have then this will be easy moving walking like your used to for a human in a circle like that will get you around this ring just like I did that small circle." Sinestra explains smiling softly before taking hands with Lyra again.

Sinestra laughed a little "Okay you see how to do that tight of a turn, you do that when walking as you do to speed off just by normal walking like you are used to from before you becoming an immortal like us, and you won't hit anything as you move along this inner circle." She said taking lyra's hand. "It's okay sweety, I can hold your hand if you like as we move along to get you used to moving faster then your normally allowed, Each station of the various courses are split into groups. This is just to get you used to moving fast." When lyra would be ready Sinestra would take off holding Lyra's hand if she wanted taking a few laps.

Sinestra smirked and said "now lets go faster Lyra, its okay to let go and speed down this circle track. Just think of it as a race course and your trying to get a first place win. Also the crystal are soft and absorb impacts which is why I used this mine to become a training ground for new turned vampires. Which not everyone likes the term vampire. Bad history associated with it, so if asked just say blood immortal." Sinestra said kindly.

The princess rolled her eyes at hearing others mumble about Lyra getting special treatment and whispered to Hitana. "Watch this." The princess walked up behind the mumblers and spoke loud enough. "Excuse me? who said Lyra was being treated special or getting top level treatment? You also went through this training with the Queen, But yet you don't have the power over water do you? No you do not.

So what if this new turn has the ability to manipulate water, Infact the queen herself had taken time to help you adjust before passing you onto another less busy trainer so she could deal with things she is needed for. Like she does for everyone. She makes sure you are able to do well on your own before she passes the training duties to another more qualified to give you the proper training in a timely manner as the queen has royal duties to take care of." She said quickly and sternly knowing it might startle a few of them.

A man walked in with armor different then any other it looked like shiny metal as if his armor was like a mirror. Looking to the woman spying with her shadows. "Tsuki, you just had to go trying to have fun with those people didn't you." He said shaking his head and sighed.

"MMn that is one bad angel seal on your shoulder. How many times have I told you that you had to be careful with people you don't know young lady? This is exactly why I have said this to you many times. 'If you don't know them don't mess with them.' Yet what you do?" He said in a bit of a half lecture at her, acting as if he was her father.

"Oh yes, Everything went fine dear. The queens plan went off without a hitch. I don't think those people will be anymore trouble now. And fortunately there was only one angel in that group you played with. I do hope the King of Sindya likes the gifts the queen left him from us delivering them." He said smirking and looked to Tsukihime lifting her chin. "Besides dear you judging by this mark it will only activate in a member of the royal family's presence when you talk about it.

Though I can kinda guess what happened. And yet you don't seem shocked I can see that mark when no other can." He said smirking more a bit and waited for her response.

The princess giggled a bit smiling now. "Oh just relax. But yes Mother does this with all new terns unless there is more than one at the same time that would be the only time she wouldn't help a new blood get readjusted to movement. In mothers words. "I only offer a gentle guiding hand and a subtle push the rest is up to you." As she has told many even myself." The princess said ruffling and massing up the mumblers hair now.

Sinestra smiled easily keeping up with Lyra. "Kinda fun going so fast huh? If you think you can manage on your own I will let you and just go all out slowly working up to master control over the subtle turn of this circle with your speed. just think you can walk the next 10,000 mile run in under a second now if you wanted. Though wheres the challenge in that ya know?" Sinestra slowly pulls away letting go of Lyra's hand and winks. "Race ya keep up if you can." Sinestra said pulling away slowly going slightly faster then Lyra.

Her father smirked. "Serious... being my daughter all this while and had not figured it out?" He said as he stretched and fiery wings like a phoenix fold out of his back the back in as he tilted his head placing a hand as a warm feeling emitted from his hand making the mark crack and break on her shoulder. Removing it from her shoulder with ease.

"I am a phoenix knight sweety. even if he commands the birds I can counter him they will obey me more than that pompous old coot can get them to. Makes me regret ever calling him my brother." This man grunted groning at that last part.

Sinestra wrote and it stayed with them in the air. "race me see if you can keep up. Believe in yourself as I believe in you." She wrote to make sure Lyra understood.

The man smirks to Tsukihime. "Tsuki dear, I don't think he will. He might end up being too busy trying o find where his kingdom vanished to." He said laughing smirking a bit.

Sinestra smiled as she raced seeing and challenging Lyra to go faster to get adjusted to how fast she can go. rying to make it a game to show it can be fun.

The princess walked in smiling. "I see you two are doing well. Lyra congratulations on learned to control everything so elegantly. I am glad you find the fun. Mother has a gift for both of you.if you would follow me to her throne room." The princess said smiling softly giggling.

Outside troops of the banner of Synda did arrive but they was not armed for battle. Yes phoenixes was with them but so was a few dragons. However the king was not present only the queen who got out of her carriage and a lot of wrapped boxes was placed behind her as well as two magnificent steeds. A table and chairs was placed in the open as the Queen sat looking to be waiting for something. Looking proud and kind, not heartless like the king nor oppressed like when there with the king previously.

Sinestra was sitting waiting a large hall full of other vampires who dressed for a ball like gathering as she waited for Lyra and Hitana to arrive.
