Reen through her fire ball at the talking knight. "Shut up! I don't care. We only want to get OUT of the stupid castle!" she growled. "Those puny knight were just in the way." Reen landed at Cell's side and looked him over. He wasn't that bad, she could heal him with her water power. Only problem was to get out and get rid of the bands. She sighed as she looked both ways. She noiced that the knights came from all the directions, but they didn't bother with the ceiling.
Reen grined as she lifted Cell with her wind manipulation. At this rate she is going to faint from useing it so much, but this was a time of need. "I'd love to stay and chat, but..." Reen said as she and Cell started to raise higher up above the knights head's and reach. "We've got to flew!" This that Reen hurried her wind to move herself and Cell through the castle walls.

Tamuril had muttered something before slipping so quickly into sleep that it surprised Takara. She smiled before she pulled his blanket farther up, tucking it underneath his chin. Then just as before she started writing, stopping once to order more paper and then resuming. She would glance over at Tamuril every once in a while to be sure that he was sleeping well and then begin writing again. Eveel had joined the knight happily into slumber, curling up on the unwounded side of his chest. Takara herself was used to not eating or sleeping for periods of time. These habits usually went on and on even though she knew that it was bad for her health.
Once she heard a cry of pain, making her halt and look up. Were those two still out there causing trouble? She looked back down at her papers, finishing the paper and then reaching down for another one.
'I have to wonder how much longer this war will go on. And will I even live to see the end of it? And after the war ends, what will happen next? All that I can really do is make sure that nothing gets within Trusar's way. I will be sure that that king of Ehsar will die in the end of this. His soul will burn in hell....'
Takara stopped when she noticed that she pressed the pin into the paper, so hard that the paper had ripped. She merely stared blankly at it for a few seconds before setting it off to the side and writing on another paper.
EDIT: Hours passed, and by now Eveel was on the floor playing with a ball that a maid had brought for him. Takara's hand was back over Tamuril's as she watched the dragon tumble over the ball, light from the sun filtering in through the windows.

Once again Tamuril was in that room with that other essence. "Damn, looks like I'm back here." The other essence walked up to him, a crazy smirk on its' face. "Aww, you're disappointed to see me?" Tamuril put his hands behind his head, and began walking in circles. There was nothing to do but accept the essence now. "Tell me what your name is at least!" The essence frowned at the question. "I'm telling you, I'm you, Tamuril! But if you insist, you can call me Sloth." Tamuril put his hand on his chin. "Sloth, eh? Fine then, Sloth it is." Hours passed as Tamuril and Sloth sat in the room, not realising that hours have already passed, and it just felt like two minutes. "Sloth tell me, why am I here?" Sloth looked up, surprised at the question. "Because of the pendant embedded in your chest, your conscience enters this realm when you sleep." How annoying this might become. Sloth was already annoying as it is, and to be forced around him was really annoying.
Tamuril's eyes flickered open as light hit them, the soreness once consumming him now gone. His energy was almost completely returned to normal. His head looked over to Takara, and she was srtill there surprisingly. "Well, good morning." tamuril said, sitting up very easily. "I hope you got some rest..." He looked around his bed for some marks that might have showed that she did.
The knight jumped to the side, dodjing the fireball. The knights lost grip of Cell as he was lifted away along with Reen. "Ley are not much of a threat anyways." The other knights halted their chase, and began to account for the ones lost.

Reen glanced at Cell with a smile on her face. "Don't worry. I need to find a safe place to get you frist. Then I have to heal you and make sure you down injure yourself anymore." Reen said, almost in a motherly vioce. "The knight said the queen had the keys. I'll find a way to get them from her or find them myself, k?" As Reen said all of his they came out of the castle and into the nigh sky. The sudden out burst of more wind to use, Reen smiled. She loved the feeling flewing gave to her. It ist part of the reason why she always flouted. She didn't care for showing off, she just loved the air. Her cloak fluttered behind her as she found a nice place to land. It was outside of the city so they couldn't get in much trouble for it. Reen set herself and Cell to the ground. Once her feet touched the ground, Reen set to work healing him. Water flowed from her outstreched hands and went all over Cell healing as much at it could.

Reen smiled at her work. Cell seemed to regan some of his energy. Suddenly Reen fell to the ground, exhausted. She lifted her upper half from the ground and sorta roled her legs on their side. She was faceing Cell so she could talk to him. "I see that your better now. You mind having those bands on till tomorrow. I have no energy to get the key now." Reen said. Her cloak was slightly laying over her, but she was able to move it off with her tail. She hated confining herself with the cloak. She would have burned it by now if it wasn't her only help to shield her from everything the villagers throw at her. Reen have no idea why she always ended up in villages. It puzzled her.

((Sin stealer. D: ))
"Truthfully, I did not even bother to close my eyes." Takara responded as she set her things on the floor, looking over at Tamuril with a smile. She moved herself to where she was closer to him, glad to see that he was almost back to normal. During the night healers had come by to seal up the rest of wounds. By the end, they just said that he needed to regain his lost blood. Now his almost scarless body had been marked once again, though this couldn't be seen underneath the fabric of the knight's shirt. "I am used to going without sleep or food for a few days."
"Ooo, bad mommy!" Eveel chirped from the floor, rolling his ball back to the bed. Then he tried to jump up, but put too much power into his legs and soared strait over the bed and crashed into the floor. He popped back up a second later, shaking himself and then acting as if nothing had just happened. He jumped up onto Tamuril's shoulder, purring as he rubbed the top of his head against the man's neck. Then he bounced over to Takara, and as if he hadn't seen her for an entire week he instantly began to purr again and cuddle against her waist. Lastly he returned to the floor, attacking the ball again. He opened his mouth and pretended to blow fire, though since he hadn't asked his mother if he could do so he only imagined it. Then he tackled the ball, rolling around the bed and even underneath as he growled and bit at it.
"Whoever the two were that were causing trouble last night are gone." Takara told Tamuril as she reached up, tucking some of his hair behind one of his lightly pointed ears.

Reen giggled when she saw him look her over. Reen heard Cell's sad attemt at a purr. She frowned and turned herself over. Because she was a cat demon herself she let out a real purr. Her tail flicked as she laied fully on the cool ground. Unknowningly she purred a bit more then she would normaly had. The cool air, the openness of the field. All of it made her happy.
Sometimes when Reen get this comfertable she would sing. No matter who was near enough to hear.
"I dreamt I dwelt in marble halls. With vassals and serfs at my side, and of all who assembled within those walls. That I was the hope and the pride. I had riches all too great to count and a high ancestral name. But I also dreamt which pleased me most. That you loved me still the same, that you loved me. You loved me still the same, that you loved me. You loved me still the same..."
Reen's vioce wasn't that bad, especialy for a demon. She hit all the right notes and pitchs were they were needed. She placed her head in her arms and stared up at the sky as she went on.
"I dreamt that suitors sought my hand. That knights upon bended knee and with vows no maidens heart could withstand, they pledged their faith to me. And I dreamt that one of that noble host. Came forth my hand to claim. But I also dreamt which charmed me most. That you loved me still the same. That you loved me, you loved me still the same. That you loved me, you loved me still the same."

((I tried thinking up of a name, but got to lazy to do it xD. In turn, that name came to my mind xD!))
Tamuril got up and out of the bed, standing next to Takara. He was aware that healers came and healed his body some more, even though he was asleep. His conscience was still awake after all, and Sloth had notified him of the healers. His blood was fully restored now to, not because of the healers though, but because of the pendant. Sloth said that the pendant needed Tamuril alive, and would gradually heal him as he slept. "I guess this pendant isn't all useless after all." tamuril remarked, adn then explaining to Takara what he meant by it.
Tamuril brushed some of Takara's hair, just like she had done to his. The same hand caem back by his own face, clenched in a fist, and than revealing a pointed finger towards Takara. "Ya need to sleep more! Anyways, you don't look that tired. Let's get somethign to eat though. I don't know about you, but hunger is starting to dwell inside me." He paced his hand on his stomach, and started to laugh palyfully. It seemed like Tamuril was back to his old self.

He was praying to the dead when the knight arrived, a prayer his people gave to help the souls that died a violent death get to the farplane. He looked up in time to watch the two demons about to fly off. Anger swelled in him as his eyes turned pitch black, he ran to stop them but was too late. So he jumped after them, his dirk out so that he could deliver a crippling slash. But they were too far gone, so he had to contend himself with falling down while watching them go. He landed on his feet, going into a roll. He went back to the area where the dead knights were, with looks of surprise and wonder directed at him. He stood in the middle of the massacre. He placed his hand in a certain gesture, and began to sing lilty while the hand made a circle moving towards and away from him. The song was sung while the souls travelled to the farplane, and have not been sung in at least a century according to Trusar time. It took a lot for him not to cry, since memories of his fallen comrades surfaced.

Takara smiled at Tamuril, standing up and holding her hand out for him to take. Eveel could be heard growling, his scales clicking against the floor as he rolled around. However seeing his mother standing up, he pushed the ball back to the bed and jumped up onto her dress. Then he climbed up the dress, claiming his spot on her shoulder as he blew some of her hair out from his face. Sometimes it could be difficult to climb up since Takara had such long hair, this being clear from the way he was struggling to free himself from her hair. Takara herself reached up, brushing the hair off of the dragon and removing it. He whistled happily, his tail wrapping around her neck as he leaned against it.
"Come on. I am sure that the kitchens will be happy to see you again." Takara told him as she grasped his hand, Eveel tilting his head. One of the soldiers in the room turned on his side, muttering something in his sleep.
Then a song reached her ears.... Wait... no. She could hear it inside of her mind, there was no sound inside of the room. For some reason, Takara knew who was singing, even though she'd only met him once. That man that had been with the elvian girl. Eveel himself had turned his head, searching for the source of the sound that only he and his mother could currently hear. Then, Takara felt something pull at her mind, drawing it away from her body. Eveel's own eyes closed and his tail went limp, the dragon falling forward and softly onto the bed. Takara herself loosening her grip of Tamuril's hand and falling down. As she landed on the ground her heart stopped, just like Eveel's.
"You have to understand
The soft
The sound
A harp's long memory
Can only echo so far
Demon's own blood
Betrays
Refrains
They are coming so close
Too close
Much too far
Betrays
Refrains
Crimson will spill
Oh how you will fall ill!
Soul will burn
Hell
In hell
Burn in hell
Oh so sweet
Oh so gray
Oh the pain
Such terrible, terrible pain...."
This voice echoed through her skull, Takara's body just as still as the blood that was supposed to be moving through her veins. Memories flashed through her head, and suddenly a path twisted itself through her mind. The song that Khnui sang still pushed through her mind, her death seeming to be controlled by the song.
Then, on an ending note....
Takara's heart resumed beating, and Eveel suddenly popped his head up, though he seemed to get up too fast since he dropped his head back down a moment later. Takara opened her eyes slowly, her fingers twitching. The song was no longer inside of her head, and all that she could really tell was that her body felt numb.
((Evil twists to come. D: ))

His voice faded into silence, he did a slow gesture to salute the departed. He then turned around and walked away as people stared at him. He sheathed the dirk as rounded one corner. He went into an uninhabited garden, where screamed loudly and punch a tree with such force that loose leaves fell and a small crack was heard. He stood, his head casted down as tears slowly came. He then started to sing again, but his voice was quiet and feeble. Extreme sorrow could be heard in his voice, as he mourned for those he had lost. A verse for every single person that was lost to him, and the list was very long. He soon dropped to his knees, as he continued to sing. Tears streamed down his face, as he came near the last verse. The last one that caused him the most pain, which he couldn't even finish the verse.
