Lus looked from Cecilia to Lucas. She had no intention on joining into their arguement. However, he did have a point. It cannot be a direct attack, it'd be too bluntly obvious that they were behind it. "Cecilia, please do not take offense of Lucas's bluntness. But he is right, we must not make such a direct action as of yet. Perhaps after they declare war, sure. But I have no wish to anger them until they are already too focused on other attacks to realize what has just happened."
She felt across the table until she felt Lucas's shocky hand and squeezed. Then she heard voices of newcomers and heard the amazed voices. They'll need air soon! She motioned towards the windows and a strong gust blew into the castle, supplying all with more oxygen than they'd probably even need. "Princess Talia, please come in, I can only apologize that I didn't think you'd be coming so soon."

"Strange..." was the only word that hit Kat's mind. He looked over at Artemis. How come she had heard him, and Illusion had not? Was Illusion simply choosing to ignore him for the time being? He blushed a little, and looked back down at his hands with shame. It must be the latter. He knew that Talia's arrival probably marked significantly higher importance at the moment.
He could figure this out, he told himself, he was smart enough for it. He hopefully glanced up at Cecilia, to see if they would be leaving soon.

Talia, who was looking at all the people in the room, focused on Illusion.
"Oh, it's okay. This place is lovely. I've never actually been here before." She smiled at Illusion. "Oh, what was it you wanted to see me about?"

Ellen was still looking around when a strong gust of wind came bursting in through the windows. She jumped a little, startled by the suddenness of it, but then was very grateful realizing that her lungs were not getting enough oxygen before. Her attention then got turned back towards the actual people in the room. They all seemed so serious. This must be about the oncoming war.

Illusion nodded her head tiredly. "Talia, I'm going to be honest with you. There are rumors circulating around saying that Xin and Violet have made a treaty. If they were to declare war my country or yours will be their targets. I asked you here to purpose an alliance between our two kingdoms. Together we will be stronger than alone in these coming times."

Katczinski took a deep breath, or rather a deep one for a citizen of the air kingdom, as he smoothly made his way out of the room behind Cecilia. By the time they had left, a ghostly shimmer marked his disappearance as he made himself invisible to the world once more. He offered his hand and his invisibility to Cecilia as the proceeded away from the kitchen.

Moriarty frowned a little as he watched Kat make his way out of the room, but didn't say anything or even bother to look at him as he did so. He stood still with his arms folded waiting for the drama to end to give him a chance to do something fun. He had caught the disappearance of Artemis, and a wry smile crossed his face as he removed himself from the room, watching her walk away and following her quietly, working to stifle the giggles that were escaping him intermittently.

Artemis continued to walk down the halls, not sure of where she was going. As she turned a sharp corner, she could swear she saw something out of the corner of her eye down the hall. Her body fell rigid as she realized that it was coming from the room she was just in, and walking this way. Quickly, she put her back against the wall and waited for whoever it was to walk past her, possibly even turning into that hall.

Moriarty grinned as he watched Artemis hide back behind a wall. He giggled loudly, echoing through the halls like the ghost of a little girl. "Hide and seek!" He mused. "I love this game. Let's see what happens when I find you!" He continued to casually stroll down the hall, singing a little tune to himself. When he reached the bit about "Come on if you think you can take us all" it would seem to her as if little shadows were flitting through the halls. He continued to stroll as his little song slowly dug it's way into her mind, and the effects were subtle.

Artemis almost heard the guy start to talk and panicked. He obviously knew where she was and what she was up to. She began to sneak down the hall, using the air under her feet to make absoluetly no sound. The song began to sink into her mind, making things appear surrounding her. She stopped and almost screamed, the only thing keeping her from it was the fear crippling her throat closed. The only thing worse than not knowing who someone was, was having them follow you singing a creepy song.

Moriarty peeked around the wall, where he had expected her to be, but when she was no longer there, he frowned a little. He continued to sing softly as he softly walked down, hoping to catch another glimpse of her. He could feel the air being moved, used for something, somewhere in the area, so he homed in on that. "I am the key to the lock in your house that keeps your toys in the basement, and if you get to far inside you'll only see your reflection, and either way you turn, I'll be there." The choice of music was starting to get more on the deranged side as he moved along. I thought the point of hide and seek was to stay and wait to be found... He whined in his thoughts.

Artemis stood there, unable to move. She could feel the air move around the guy that was following her, and he was close. There was a door to her left. She quickly ran into the room and closed the door behind herself. There was no lock, so she forced a load of air onto the door, sealing it shut. The music finally stoped along with the seal. She was in a small storage room. As she hear the guy continue to move down the hall, she hid behind a few boxs and continued to force the air onto the door.

Moriarty followed until he heard the sound of a door shutting and began to feel the air pushing up against it. He frowned as he looked rather helplessly at the door. He didn't have the strength to contest that kind of pressure, but then a thought occurred to him. He smiled as he leaned up against the door, slowly waiting, and doing nothing else. It wouldn't be long. In that dark and close room, the claustrophobia would do his job for him, and he knew it. An air elementalist trapped in a small room? That's never a good thing. He was hoping that she would start to feel the same yearning for open space and fresh air as he did.

Artemis put all of her energy into sutting that door tight. She began panting as she felt the pressure of a body leaning agianst the door. She realized that it was him, but he wasn't pushing. Well, that's rather unexpected... She thought to herself. She could have sworn he would have fought. She realeased some of the pressure, but not enough that if he decided to fight suddenly that she could put the rest of te pressure right back up. She still couldn't figure out why. Is he waiting? Just wainting for me to get bored? She smiled to herself. If he thought that she was going to give up soon, he was wrong. She had spent almost her whole life hiding. A few hours wasn't going to kill her. By then someone would figure something was wrong or, at least, he would leave of boredom himself.
