:: Dromius looked out over the party an dimmidiatly heard horrid laughter coming from a group of nobles. He bared his teeth and clenched his fists as he saw them laughing as a servent bent down to lick up some sort of liquid from the dirty ground. He hated them all. He felt like going down there and begin releave them of their heads. He managed to stay his anger but sliced a the head of a gargoyle off the roof of the building. It fell into a bon fire and hot ash and embers sprayed onto a noble. He ran out into the middle of the square stripping screaming at the top of his lungs. "ACK IM ON FIRE HELLP AHHHHHG!". The rest of the nobles laughed at his misfortune and one noble used a water spell to put out the fire. Dromius couldnt help but smile when the noble ran. Serves him right, thoght those flames arnt as hot as the flames he'd see in hell::

Elliot was in the middle of a slow-paced dance when he caught a glimse of the soldier-doll licking up spilled wine over the shoulder of his escort. Something of his surprise and horror must have shown in his face for, although his steps never faltered, the auburn man asked, "Elliot, is something wrong?" The boy shook his head, averting his eyes from the scene and wiping his face of emotion seconds before he was forced to look again due to a new commotion - apparently someone else had had the decency to clean the mess up and the nobles didn't seem too happy. And it seemed that another had caught fire by some freak accident, but Elliot didn't care about that. He was glad that Artemis had not had to humiliate himself any more and some small part of himself stored that emotion deep inside the box that contained all his feelings.

Artemis hadn't moved an inch from the floor during the whole incident. Should he be horrified for what happened to the noble? Grateful that he didn't have to taste the soiled wine anymore than he did? Or maybe he humored from the whole event. Perhaps it would be best to just remain where he was and not express any of them. But it didn't seem that was going to happen when he felt Kaya bring him to his feet.. helping him. "I-.."
He was cut off before he even truly began by the now enraged noble. "How dare you!" he growled, his face turning a deep shade of red from mixed humiliation and anger. "Who do you think you are to barge in here and cut short our entertainment?!" He reached a hand out to grab Artemis by his long hair and jerk his back to his side. Though his servant wasn't treated well, the man seemed possessive still yet. "Are you going to stand there like an idiot and do nothing?! Defend me, fool!"
"Forgive me, my Lord," Artemis said, giving only the smallest of winces from the hand in his hair. Once he was released, he stepped before Kaya. "We shall step outside as to not further disturb the party," he said. His tone didn't sound threatening in the least.

By this time, Ben's - Elliot's escort - attention had been caught by the sceen and their dancing had stopped, although he still heald possesively onto the other's arm as if he expected the other to dissapear if he did not hold on to him. He was, in his own way, very attatched and possessive of the young boy. Elliot remained expressionless, but he tried to catch Artemis' eye as the other got up and seemed to be readying himself to talk to the other outside. He somehow felt connected to this other - perhaps because he understood at least some of what Elliot himself thought.

"So be it." he told Artemis and looking over his shoulder he spoke to the noble once more."I apologize again, Sir. I will be more careful from now on". He faced Artemis once more and gestured him to lead the way." Outside you said. I'm afraid I'm not very familiar with this particular part of the city. Much less, this building. Care to show me out?"

Regretfully not having caught Elliot's gaze, Artemis nodded to Kaya before walking past the watching nobles and other magic-users. He led the man easily through the crowds, relieved to give his legs a little stretch. Out of the main room and through a small lobby-like area, put them outside the large, gaudy mansion. Once there, he stopped when he was just over five paces from the man and turned to face him. "You helped me," was all he stated, as if the action was odd in itself while his hand moved to push back his worn down cape to reveal his sword hanging on his hip. It could only be unsheathed when magically unlocked by one of his owners. Despite his forced loyalty, they still would not trust him with a free weapon.

"And why shouldn't I? I may have magick running through my veins but that was no more than a display of complete ignorance. What kind of human being would treat another man that way? I don't care what your position is in this strange society, but I know it's not right the way he treated you." Kaya stated this as if it had been an obvious fact. His voice remaining monotone and uninterested as usual, but his face held nothing but spite for the noble who he had tormented as he had. He wrapped his blackened wings around himself to block the night air from his skin, and hoped that the extra length of his kimono was enough to keep his legs warm.

Harmon heard some commmotion coming from the other side of the holding area, "Hmm... I wonder what that was?" He stood up and walked to the direction towards the talking. He looked at the people talking.
(Did I make it vague enough to join something cause I am not in the storyline yet. sweatdrop )

((You can join in with Elliot, if you'd like. ^ ^))
Elliot looked up at the man who had asked the question, but Ben answered before him. "Just some novice sorcerer accidentally screwing up one of his spells and humiliating one of our lords in front of the others," he said with his usual bright smile. "Nothing of consequence." He then frowned, looking over the other's appearance again. "You don't look familiar... are you new? Of course, I don't pride myself in knowing everyone in Magic, but I think I would remember most everyone..." he murmured, looking thoughtful.
Elliot, who had opened his mouth the answer the new comer, had closed it silently as soon as Ben had begun to answer his question. It was always this way... hewas the silent doll. Expressionless. He had never given it much thought - not until now, when he had met another similar to himself.

((If this is for me. Here you go. ^^))
Harmon glanced a little a Elliot wondering why he wasn't going to speak, but he disregarded it and answered, "I'm Harmon..." He stared quizically still at Elliot still wondering, "And your right I'm not from here. I'm from Hailo Ginslith," He wondered also of the magic he was talking about. What kind of magic and how they used it. He wasn't at all happy at people miss using ancient magic, "I was going to ask you something but I think that person was about to say something," he motioned to the person behind.

((Yes, it was for you. ^ ^ ♥))
Elliot looked and shook his head. "No, I... I don't," he murmured, amethyst eyes looking up at the other from under long, dark lashes. It was the perfect doll look - something that he now did unconsciously after so much training.
"Elliot, you're too cute!" Ben exclaimed, wrapping an arm around the slender boy's shoulder. Elliot was too used to this treatment to be phased and remained emotionless throughout.

"Hmmm... Must be my imagination," he brushed it off still thinking that he was going to say something. He passed that emotion when he talked to the person babying the boy named Elliot. He wondered why he didn't speak or show any sign of human behaviors. Well in any case he was also curious about the magic users of this continent, " Um... I was wondering," He asked the person hugging Elliot, " What is your name? And what kind of magic do you do here? Particularly this continent," He smiled.

"I'm Ben. Benji, if you want the whole first name, but I go by Ben," he answered with his usual charming smile. "We have all sorts of magic here. Summoning, of course, as is usual and control of elements - some people specialise in a particular element, you know. Like Elliot's parents - they have Moon Magic. My magic is mainly Earth and a bit of summoning, but I can also manage Water if I need to," he explained. Elliot, of course, could not speak here. He was not supposed to have magic.

"I am a summoner," He said as he pulled out his summoning tool, "Pact making and in battle in particular and I don't have an element," he looked at Elliot, "What about you? Do you do magic," he smiled lightly. He was wondering what he was going to say. He had been silent this whole time which is kind of unusal, well in Harmon's eyes. He noticed off hand that he was in a doll like state. Maybe even a servent of some sort of Benji's.

Shiyaa sat quietly on the roof of his own house, carefully fixing his kimono. He felt the need to be outside that night, so he stayed up there for a while after he was finished, staring up at the stars. Sighing, Shiyaa hugged his knees to his chest, still looking up at the sky.
