"You should have seen it before. This place was a mess."
He himself aws not all to certain, but after speaking with one of the workers there they found that they could find the new king in the tall bulding nearest the forest. It wasn't a grand place, and rather modest, but looked well secured. They inquired to the gaurds their reasons for comming, and they were allowed in.
In an office like room, where a boy and some men were looking over plans for the city, Moon and Kat were allowed to enter.
The boy greated them. "Hello travelers. What have you to offfer the new city of Honoursfield?" He smiled at them. He wore no crown, but looked clean and well kept. Moonstone supposedthis was the young king he had heard about.
"King Gerard." Moonstone bowed. "We come to offer medical aid."

A grin. "I thought you didn't wear socks..." Oh that was fun, he just caught her a lie. Though he was feeling spiteful all the more as she yelled at him, flailing her dagger about everywhich way with his eyes followed withoout flaw, barely concentrating on her any more. "He should of used chalk or something similar. And you're that someone why now?" He couldn't resist poking at her.
Nym flopped on the floor. Oh man...Sev...coem get me. i ate way too much...far too much...why did I eat that whole thing...that was such a bad idea. A rather pitiful sad, help me chitter from him as he lay there stretched on the floor. Sevilin!
Pushing past he he scooped up Nym, having him rest stretched out on his stomach on his forearm, one hand petting at the creature as he turned half of his attention back to Zahara. "Obviously your knowledge of runes, lacks..." A pivot on his heel.

She just glared at him, "Next time I'm sure he'll be more courteous. And I"m cleaning it because I don't want Malik seeing it and knowing my luck Malik will be coming through here before one of the slaves can get it done." She rolled her eyes at him but concern replaced anger as she heard the sad chitter. "Oh Nym..why did you eat that whole piece of meat? You silly creature." She shook her head and watched as Sev picked up Nym and started to walk away. She alternated between anger and concern. "How am I supposed to know anything about runes Sevilin? Unlike you, I didn't chose to study runes. Instead I was focusing more on clerical studies!" Then another glance at Nym. "Is he going to be okay?" she asked chewing on her lip.

Kat smiled nervously at the young king, he was close to her age, and quite handsome to. "We know that there will be need of medical nurses soon. And we were of a mind to offer our services." She cast her eyes down but found herself looking at him from under her lashes.
She cleared her throat a little. "we were hoping there would be somehwere here in Honoursfield we could set up."

He spun on her instantly, that horrible angry flash to his eyes and his expression stern, hand clenched in a fist with one finger pointing accusingly at her. "Clerical studies that you think make you the best thing int he world and that nothing else matters and some aren't even deserving of those abilities!" Oh look she hit a nerve again. "And don't you speak to me of choices at all woman! You wouldn't know one if you were slapped in the face wiht one!"
Though his outburst seemed to turn perplexed at the fact that seh was chewing her lip and asking about Nym. What the...? A look down at the feerret. He'll be fine, we eat like that all the time...his body is just little." Another pet at the creature as he got his wits about him, letting that facade of anger drop back into place and let his voice turn venomous once more, mocking as well as he looked to recover himself. "Playing for Malik's good graces, how amusing...I thought you were above that."

The King smiled. "That would be ah great ideah." He was quicklt losing his accent amoung the higherups. And talking with O'Konner. They had more people comming in everyday, and not meany held the old tonge. "There is ah building down center street you can rent out. The owner lives on the top floor, and will rent out the first two. Speak with him, and he will get you what you need." He wnet back to his work, obviously busy.
Moonstone bowed his thanks, and left to find this building.

Well she glad to know that Nym was goign to be okay but that brought her to the rest of it. Immediate anger at his comment about her catering to Malik but the rest of it stunned her. She jerked back like he'd slapped her and replaced her dagger in it's sheath at her thigh. Now what had brought that little outburst on? "I never said clerical studies made me think I'm the best thing in the world. And I don't think you aren't deserving of anything." Ah she saw what was happening here. He was still under the impression that she was just like any other female Drow he'd ever known. She watched him for a moment and then said quietly, "Sevilin, have I ever smacked you for saying something or getting out of line? Have I ever brandished a whip against you? Have I ever put you into a humiliating position just so I could laugh at you? Have I ever told you that you were lucky to be alive and only because of my good graces did you remain that way?"

Kat walked with moon down Center street. "He didn't say what this building looked like, how will we know which one is wich?" She looked around having no idea if they were goign the right way, or what to look for. " Hopefully it will be a good place, but will two floors be enough? I mean we're going to neeed tons of beds or pallets at least." She thought a bit as they walked. 'Maybe we could use mroe than on ebuilding? There must be tohers who will want to be medical nurses..."

"We'll just start out small first. Two floors will be fine, then we can move out. Although first we have to establish ourselv..."
And then he stopped and turned around, because he heard a voice.
"Kat?"

Kat froze mid stride, but it took her a moment before she could turn around. She knew who the voice belonged to.
She out up a hand and waggled her fingers a bit, and with a sheepish grin she said, "Hi dad."

Moonstone stepped back a moment, feeling this wasn't his territoy.
"Kat. I was on my way to speak with you." He put a hand behind his neck. "The farm will be migrating. The King has offered his some good land, in and around the forest. Once we get soem good grass growing down here, well be transporting the herd."
He then looked atMoon, and then back tohi daughter. "What are you doing in Honoursfield?"

He faultered again...say what now? The hell was she saying, speaking in questiond and soft tones. Though being perplexed only lasted so long. It was a trick, it had to be...lure him into a false sense of security and then lash out against him when he had his back turned and was vulnerable under her impressions of false equality.
"You don't have to say it for us to know that you think it, that you want to. You're just one of the ones who uses the ways of the very spider that you worship. Strike when least expected and perfect the suffering of your victims." Male drow in general of course he was speaking of, and also of a female drows nondescriminate killing. Though to male drow, there were worse things than death a female could do to them.
No, he couldn't get it out of his head that she was just like any other female drow. About five centururies of being around the vipers though would do that to a man. Stuck with thinking inside the box.
Nym chittered, gaining Sevilin's attention. Pulling himself to his hind legs he placed his forepaws on Sev's chin, nuzzling at his jaw. Calm down Sev before you work yourself up into a frenzy. She's not mean to me, that has to count for something. Hasn't even tried to turn me into a purse yet! Well...she did chase me, but she never hurt me even when she could of squished me at the stairs. Don't be angry I don't like it when you're angry, you loose control. Sev had a couple of anger management and rage issues.

Kat was surprised, mom loved there home... "Does mom know we're moving?"
She looked a little sheepish, as if she wasn't supposed to be there. "Well... Moonstone and I had thought to open a medical center here... with the war coming people will need attention... adn both of us knows a little bi tabout healing people, and we've been studying... we're looking for a place now..."

"You're mother was not keen at first...but most familes are moving out from down south and she's getting lonely with all the kids gone. She came over to my sie after a few talks."
He blinked, he had no idea his daughter knew such thigns. "Oh...well. that building over there is being rented out," he pointed to one a few buildings donnw. "Rob is renting them out cheap. OCme on, I'll take you to him." He started to elad.
Moonstone smiled and gave Kat a thumbs up.

Zahara stared at him again and shook her head, then sat down on the bottom step and ran her fingers through her hair. "I suppose I am that cruel. I suppose I do wish, hope and plan for the very moment when you step so far out of line I have no choice but to show you who's boss. I suppose that because my skin is the color it is and I am a female and my upbringing is Drow I have to treat you like something disgusting I scraped off the bottom of my boot. I guess you want me to bring you to your knees and force you to perform sexual favors for me as well." She shook her head, "I'm sorry that I've ever given you the impression that I am that way. I certainly didn't mean to." Why was it he couldnt' see past the fact that she was a female Drow? Why did everyone assume she was cruel and heartless. She tried so hard not to be and for what? Her shoulders slumped and she shook her head, "Maybe someday you'll see me for who I am not what you think I am. And when that day comes Sevilin Inthara, you'll make me very happy. Take care of Nym, he's one in a million." And while that last sentence implied an exit she just sat there, quietly watching him.
