Welcome to Gaia! ::

Earendil chuckled as he picked her up and held her close to his chest and headed out of the Dining Hall towards the outside.

"Usually if you fall asleep," he replied with amusement, "it means that you need to rest ... but if it's something important, I'll wake you up."

Now he understood writers when they wrote about swallowing their own tongue. So many things he use to read on the abstract concept of emotions and now he could understand them! Lore oculd not help but stare at Elnara, the dress style was so far removed from what she normally wore.

He coughed, akwardly and nodded, "Yes," he replied finding his voice, "I think we're all ready."

He rose form his seat, watching the playful fabric move to her form.

Earendil chuckled again.

"Well, if I think there's something important that you wouldn't want to miss, I'll wake you up," he promised. "But if there's nothing happening and it's all just boring, then I'm going to let you sleep, all right?"

"She's right," Lore replied softly, "It is."

Very, very pretty he thought to himself, though it seemed in the times the scraft would reveal a bit, that she was hiding her own scars. Even Lore, thorugh knowing Elnara, knew there were times he should be grateful, he had never been hurt that badly. At least not physically.

Elnara blushed even more deeply, but said nothing as she led the way to the front of the castle, and outside.

A short while later they arrived at the city. The white walls of the buildings and the city itself almost seemed to glow in the early morning sun, and though they were passed on both sides by elves going in every which direction, very few of them bothered to give them a second glance.

The first level of the city was the beginning of the business section. The first three layers were made up of the market, the craftsmanship shops, and then the artisans. On each side of the white marble street were elves calling out their wares, and Elnara relaxed as she felt the familiarity of it all stealing through her.

Lin giddy with excitement pounced on the first step, wiggling her body up onto it. She had tried going up the stairs in the inn by myself though she was sure they weren't as tall as the stairs here. Though climbing on large rocks helped too, but still, it took a bit of manunvering to get herself up. This is how she would try to climp up the steps, placing her arms up and lifting herself up, slowly a step at a time.

Elnara smiled up at Lore and reached up to take Silvrendir from his shoulder. "It's a quiet day today," she commented. Then she looked up at him again, and her smile widened. "So what would you like to do first?" she asked him. "Visit my grandparents? Or my old friend?"

Really those were the only two things that she particularly wanted to get done today, anything else was secondary.
