Amelia smiled as Alihi took the tea, sitting absently on the foot of the bed so she wouldn't have to hover over Alihi like a doting mother. At the comment of a galdr, her smile fractured a little. "Galdr? Those are songs from the herons, right? I think someone explained them to me once." Amelia ran a hand through her hair and sipped from her own mug of hot tea. "What happened with some bird song?"

"Although one thing that bugs me was that I saw no Heron in that room. So how was the galdr going around in that room?"

Tibarn and Ayra had a nasty reputation of airing their dirty laundry in public, it seemed. He swatted one pillow out of the way, and caught the second, but the last hit him right on the leg, which just made it hurt more. He glared at Ayra for a long moment, but in his mind he couldn't help thanking her. Now he could get it healed without losing so much pride, because he was being forced to! "Fine," he growled in the most contemptuous tone he could muster, and he stormed off to find anyone who could use a stave.
A few minutes later, after Rhys had healed him up, he went up to his room for a moment and returned in a pair of fresh silk pants and sat down again. "Hmmph," he grumbled. "You're lucky I love you, or... something," he snapped, the wind swept out of his sails.

Soren nodded to Amelia and Nometal in acknowledgment before proceeding.
"I don't know if it was even a heron singing. However, I've managed to memorize the lyrics now that I've heard it twice.
...The last lines have something to do with Order. There are mentions of rivers and streams, as well as a voice. Was that the song you heard?"

Amelia listened thoughtfully. The song was entirely foreign to her. Then again, galdr had been something she was only introduced to thanks to the FEF Kingdom, and she simply went along with Soren and his statement of the song speaking of 'order' and bodies of water.
"I don't know how a song could have done more than be pretty," she commented, "unless it was a special one, like how specific songs Nils plays help boost morale or lend strength."

Well there's that thudding again.. ".. there must be a trigger in their somewhere.." Fiora said quietly. "I think I need to get out of here for a while, my head is pounding again like before I'm not quite sure why either."

"Oh, hello, Alihi and Fiora. I see you've awakened. Hello to you as well, Soren." Valter said as he walked into the room. "Ah, yes... that sounds like the one I heard right before I lost consciousness..."

Alihi rested her chin in the palm of her hand, setting the mug on the floor. "I'm... not sure. The song was... alluring, though. I... I don't know how to describe it."
She gasped slightly. "Yeah! That was it! ..." She rested her head in her hand.

"I recognize that last part, only because that was the part I heard when I walked in. But that sounds about right. Just where did it come from?"

"Yes, galdrar behave much like Nils's abilities."
The mage gave Fiora a strange, knowing look. He had sensed something troubling her when the lyrics had been spoken. "...My apologies. Feel free to lie down, we're all worn out from different causes. You too, Valter."
He shook his head and spoke at the ceiling. "This is a wretched winter we're having..."

Amelia blinked. She was still not quite sure what was going on as Fiora mentioned getting out of there, and Alihi began to look sleepy again. "I don't get it," she said uncertainly.
[[So hearing this song makes you pass out or something? o__o"]]

"It's alright Soren, it's not your fault for this. I think I need some air though. I'll be back in a while I suppose..." Fiora ran out of the room, towards the front door whisteling to Snow along the way.

(I think so. Is Fiora a heron OC, or the Peg Knight from FE7?)
Rhys took the remaining mug and took a nice swig, swirling the flavor around in his mouth...
"MMMMM!"
Rhys swallowed, then started fanning at his tongue.
"Ah! Ah! HOT! Still hot! Ow!"
Rhys considered going outside and dunking his tongue in some snow, but knew full well it was too much effort.
"Aaaagh... Still, it's taking that firewood group a long time... OW! WHY IS IT STILL HOT?"
He had taken another sip. The tea itself was quite nice, and it wasn't burning his tongue off, but it was still very warm liquid.

Alihi shook her head. "I-I'm alright..." She muttered, trying to reassure herself more than anyone else, even though no one even asked if she was alright.
