Tamuril chuckled to himself, now where did she hear that? probably that guard from before, Tamuril would have to pay him a visit. Not only had she just rubbed something ebrassasing into his face, she had to complete the torture by pinching him. Even know she was the queen, Tamuril could not just let this pass.
He turned, adn followed her down the hall. He soon caught up to her. He walked beside her, his eyes focused straight in front of him. A small grin appeared on his face, as his lips slowly began to open. "Perhaps I did have fun. You know, it's funny though. I also heard you had fun sleeping in the dirt. I'm sure the many insects and worms within it would appreciate you as they eternal lover." Although he was beeing slightl impolite, he still laughed out loud.

Takara looked over at Tamuril, the corners of her lips twitching for a smile. "Luckily I enjoy sleeping in the dirt." She replied as she started walking down the stairs. "Clean dirt is soft and warms up, very comfortable to lay down on. If it has bugs and worms in it, it means that the dirt is healthy. Clean dirt smells wonderful." A few of the gaurds who heard her speaking were glancing at each other, and they were even looking shocked at seeing her smiling. "I bet that walls are soft and comfortable, too."

Tamuril looked down at her, almost ignoring what she said. Although a smiled he did have on his face, it was mostly because of something else. She was becomming warmer, nicer, and seemed to smile more often. Although this may not have seemed much, he was glad to see his queen, and family member become happy.
Tamuril almost forgot to say something, though he barely got some words out. Although he wasn't sure if she was serious or not. "Honestly, I never knew that dirt could come to posses those traits." The walls actually quite clean most of the time, although not to comfortable to lean up against, Tamuril figured."Although I was asleep, I'm sure the walls are quite pleasant as well." Tamuril had chuckled, than remember what he was going to do. Although she turned it against him, he would have to seal the torture."Oh, repaying the favor now..." He brought his hand up, and then quickly pinched her cheek. He had returned his attention back to the hall, wondering by the queen was oing back to the library.

Takara shook her head, still smiling as she looked back to the steps that were in front of her. She pushed back some of her hair behind her ear, tilting her head off to the side. She paused, looking around herself in order to remember which way she had to go now. She had already been on the level that led out to the streets beforehand, so she was already very close to the underground levels. She turned herself around, looking at Tamuril with a curious look on her face.
"Are you going to follow me?" She asked as she folded her arms behind her back, still keeping her head tilted. "Because I am going to spend a few hours in the library. Rather boring for you, correct? I highly doubt that you desire to spend such time getting to know books upon books. Or perhaps the Memory Book pulls at your interest? Perhaps not, you were half asleep last night, kissing the walls so lovingly...."

Tamuril turned and looked at Takara. At first it had seemed that she didn't want him there, although later she seemed to be thinking of how Tamuril would feel. He put his hand on his chin, pretending to be thinking thoroughly. To be honest, the memory book had caught his attention. "I care not if I'm bored, I'm not trained to be worried about beeing bored. Plus, I am a little interested in the memory book." He turned his body to face her completely, his face becomming a little more serious."And sometimes people may beg to difffer, I'm sure you'd get lonely."
Tamuril walked past her, not waiting for a reply. The night before he hadn't paid much attention to the hallway, but his footsteps appeared as if to disappeared after he walked. Some sort of magic caused this for sure.

Takara nodded, turning and walking beside Tamuril down the hall. As they got deeper, the magic of the disappearing steps began to occur. The door appeared, and Takara briefly held the door open for the other. Once he was in she shut the door and it faded away, and soon after they were inside of the hidden library. Takara herself went over to where the picture of the brook was, holding the arm that had the fire jewel forward. The wall opened up, and she gestured inside of it for Tamuril to venture into if he wanted to. As she walked away the passage stayed open, though she didn't really notice this as she walked around. From what she knew, only having both jewels could make the wall open. She'd been down here several times, but never had anything like that ever happened.
Nothing else would happen, and Takara eventually stopped in front of where a picture of the castle was. She looked at it carefully, folding her arms underneath her breasts as her eyebrows went together. She was absolutely certain that this place had even more secrets, all that she had to do was find them. Not that it would be easy. She started again, moving slowly as she clasped the diamond of air tightly. She was just hoping that it might give her some type of a clue. She glanced over towards where the Memory Book was, hoping that Tamuril didn't decide to take a peek at what the book had written about her. If he did, she'd just have to live with it. That was the way life was.

Shin stared at his newly fat cat, not knowing the queen went away before Ratic could speak to her. "Kirra..." Shin said in a shocked vioce. Kirra looked up at him and purred. He peted her, but decided she was going on few rans.
Ratic Watched everything that happend in silience. After the queen left he watched Shin and his cat. Wondering why he didn't say anything to the queen. After a moment he thougt about what the queen said and started laughing.
Shin and Kirra stared at Ratic as his sudden laugher seemed to die down. "What was that about?" Shin asked as Kirra meowed, seemingly hungry for something to eat.
Ratic breathed in and out before replying. "She's turning into a fat cat...And you looked shocked at that."
For a moment Shin stared at him before his eyes narrowed and he said, "What do you mean by that? Kirra was a skinny cat before I was taken. Now look at her! The cat is howeling for more food." Shin nearly cryed in saying the last part. He's never seen her fat.
Ratic tried not to laugh at Shin's stupidity before laughing out loud again. When it settled Ratic said, "She was the queen right? I can tell she likes cats. Now, she is the queen, she has a cat, the cat will get fat because of that."
Shin looked at Ratic with a questioning look. He turned his attention to Kirra meowing for food in his lap. He pet her, picked he up, and stood up. He needed to get her something to eat. She might as well get fat. She's never been able to with how little food she could get. Shin could relate because he went through most of those moments with her. Shin walked out of the garden, with Ratic following. He went staight to the kitens and asked a cook if she could spare some fish. After five minutes the fish were placed in front of the cat on a plat. Shin sat crowslegged and watched her eat with Ratic nearly breaking into an other laugh from above.

((-evil laugh- Fat cat! Fat kittyyyy! ...Bwahahahaa....))
Takara had gone around the walls three times and yet nothing had happened. She retreated to the middle of the room, going over books and opening a few. If she were a secret, where would she be? Somewhere carefully hidden, obviously. The diamond around her neck remained silent, exactly what the diamond that she wore on her wrist did. Was there anything else hidden away within these walls? Were they in the walls? She even searched the books, looking for anything that looked different. She also reached out with her magic, trying to feel for another source. When nothing came, she pulled it back, pausing where she stood.
'There must be something else.' She thought to herself as she closed her eyes softly. 'There is, I can feel it. Perhaps it is not in this room, but another....'
Come here, queen of fire and ice. Takara, come here....
Takara snapped her head to the side after hearing a whisper. There was no one there, only empty space. No one there. No sound. Just books.
Come here.
She looked in back of her, her eyebrows going together. Come here. Where was it coming from? Follow ink. Then it stopped, the whispers fading away. Had Tamuril heard that? Takara looked to where he was, and after a while when she saw that he wasn't coming over to check she knew that he hadn't. She returned her attention to what it had said, deciding if she should do as the voice said and follow 'ink'. Ink? Black? Shadows? As her eyes moved around, she saw that the shadows nearest to her was a book shelf. She stepped slowly over, a soft breeze going over her hand as she readied to attack anything that jumped out at her with wind magic. Nearing the shelf, she followed it, all the way to where it ended near a wall. Another wall? But what was the point? She'd already searched this place. Was she losing her mind? If so, Takara wasn't even sure if she should feel surprised. However her thoughts were switched when she got closer to the wall and saw that the picture on it was of the castle. She brushed her fingers against it, and she felt the ground beneath her beginning to shift. She stepped back, the ground silently opening up. It stopped at her toes, and from what she could see, there wasn't anything there.
She felt something push at her shoulders, so hard that it made her fall forward. With a small cry of surprise Takara fell into the hole, hitting the ground at what felt to be ten feet of falling. Landing, the ground above her shut, leaving her in darkness. She sat up, a small light coming from somewhere in front of her. The diamond of fire pulled her wrist forward, and so she followed it where it tugged in. A small while later, the fire diamond dimmed down, the light disappearing. Takara found herself in another much smaller room, with something that looked like a large egg, six inches long and three inches tall. It glowed, and for a moment she only stood there looking at it. The fire jewel pulled once, fading away again. She nodded, stretching her arm out and touching it lightly with her fingers.
The surface of the egg cracked, and she brought her arm back. Something black and whip-like popped up, going back in a moment later. She watched as whatever was inside broke off the top of the shell, staring at it.
"What in the seven hells...?" Takara mumbled to herself as a small, tiny baby dragon peeped its head out. It blinked, looking around itself. When its eyes landed on her, it almost seemed to smile with its large, round golden slit-like eyes. It made a small whistle, trying to crawl out from its small prison. Still shocked, Takara reached over, holding her hand out to the small creature. It grabbed onto her fingers, climbing up and laying down on her palm. The dragon whistled again, wagging its tail as it looked up at her innocently. It had little claws, with a long snout without any teeth. There was a pair of wings on its back, though they didn't look mature enough to be able to allow the dragon to fly.
"...A... a dragon?" Takara whispered to herself, the little animal still wagging its tail.
"A, a dragon?" It repeated in a high voice as it lifted its head up. "A, a dragon? A, a dragon?"

Tamuril was the Memory Book, almost entranced by it's knowledge. It had almost everything about his family in it, how they died, when they died, and even when they were born. Tamuril had heard of such books in Myths, but he had never before witnessed one.
After about ten minutes, Tamuril had read everything on his families history. He decided not to read further on, knowing that that was technically none of his business. He placed the book from where he picked it up, and left the room to see what Takara was doing. As he walked into the library, he noticed she wasn't there. Had she gone and left him there without telling him? Tamuril doubted it, and assumed something must have happened to her. "My queen? Where have you gone to?" Tamuril went around the walls searching for another secret door, but to his dismay nothing had happened. When he did stop searching, he was standing on the spot where Takara was last standing before she fell.

Takara was brought back to reality when she heard Tamuril's voice. She nearly jumped, glancing back behind her and looking down at the dragon in her hand. "A, a dragon?" The creature repeated, tilting its head to the side. She shook her head, looking over at the dragon shell and picking it up with her free hand. Now she stood up, knowing that she had to do something. The pieces glowed, lighting up the small passage. The dragon was rubbing its neck against her palm, making a purring sound. Soon she made it to where she had fallen and looked up. "Tamuril?" She yelled up at him, though she had no idea if he was actually standing there above her. Or, if he could even hear her.
"Tamuril!" The dragon cried out, its tail wagging again. "A, a dragon! Tamuril!"
The ground above opened up, and Takara looked up at the light. The top was too far up for her to be able to jump up, so was she stuck?
"Tamuril!" The dragon yelled out in its high voice again. "A, a dragon!"
"Tamuril? Are you there?" Takara called out, the dragon following: "Tamuril? Are you there? A, a dragon!" Takara hoped that the dragon wouldn't repeat everything that she said. She shook her head, wondering how she would be able to get out. Then, the jewel around her neck glowed, the light spreading out over her body. She was lifted up, thrown right out of the hole. She landed on her feet, falling over from the messy landing as the hole sealed itself.
"A, a dragon!" The tiny creature said again as it jumped up and down in her hand. It stood up, wobbled, falling over onto her lap and tumbling. It looked up at her as it rolled on its back, wagging its tail again. "Tamuril? Are you there?"

Tamuril looked down below him, hearing Takara's voice. There was also something else, saying the exact same things over and over. As he kept observing, trying to figure out how she got down below the floor, a hole had opened up. Tamuril glaned down it, and as he did he notic Takra standing there. He still was trying to figure out how she got down there.
As Tamuril still looked down the hole, Takara seemed to be flying upwards. barely beeing able to dodge, Tamuril jumped backwards, almost loosing his balance in the meantime. When he was aware that Takara had just landed before him, Tamuril approached her slowly. Now he was really confused. "W-w-w-hat the fu-" Tamuril was no longer lookin at Takara, but the tiny creature that was wobbling on top of her. With the repititive words, Tamuril had guessed that the creature was the reason for saying the same words over and over again. The countenance of the creature gave reason that it was a small baby dragon. Another thing Tamuril had only heard of in Myths. "Is that a...dragon? How in Alexias name did that get down here?" How rude. tamuril had almost completely forgot about the queen. the shock from seeing a dragon was still quite overwhelming.

Tamurils eye twitched, his mouth half open like he was going to say something, but nothing ever came out. It was astonishing, a dragon appearing in the most unlikely place. Questions kept on coming up, like how it got down there, and who...or what put it down there.
'Tamuril'. It echoed through his head until he finally snapped out of it. He walked up to Takara, grabbing her arm and pulling her up. Tamuril was still thinking about the dragon, but decided to stop until a more proper time. "Let's go back, perhaps it will be easier to solve these riddles then." Tamuril turned around and began to walk back. The dragon had to have been there for a reason. Tamuril had a good guess why to. That dragon was probably placed there a long time ago for someone, such as Takara, to find. Perhaps this dragon was a solution to the end of the war.

Tamuril was pretty much dragged into Takara's room. All the other specaatators around were looking at them like they were crazy. Tamuril had even heard some say 'Theyv'e been spending alot of time together, you think they're...'If it were'nt for Takara holding his arm, Tamuril would have for sure taught them a lesson for saying that.
Takara had heard another voice...great. That was all she needed, get visited by those damn gods and make her collapse again. Although since she does seem fine, maybe it was something else. Than it finally clicked in his head, the dragon was the creature of protection for Ehsar. "Hmmm...was it a god?" Tamuril thought back to the last time she was visited by the gods, and they told her that they was another god controlling the king of trusar."The dragon is the creature of protection for Ehsar, perhaps that god controlling the king of Trusar has something to do with this? Although it may seem alright, the dragon could become something that we could live to regret..." It was always possible, especially for a god."You said you felt something push you in, making it innevitable to find the dragon. Maybe this was all planned by that god?" Tamuril thought about what he said. It sounded absurd, but what had happened to Takara of late didn't make it far from possible.
