Tamuril was about to eat, but his trains of thoughts was caught by Takara. She sure was acting weird, but who could blame her? She had technically just died. She was probably confused at what happened, why it happened and mostly how it happened. People just don't suddenly drop dead.
Tamuril's confused eyes were looking at Takara. "Takara, what's wrong? Is it what just happened to you?" Tamuri had to know, or else he'd remain worried until he did find out. "Hey, maybe she's crazy? Maybe falling in love with you made some of the screws in her head loosen up a little?" Sloth said into Tamuril's head. "If you want to give your opinion, please put some effort into thinking of something sane..." Sloth laughed lightly. "Fine, be that way! I think I'll just leave then!" Sloth seemed to leave Tamuril's head, receeding back into dormancy. "Good ridance..." Even though Tamuril knew SLoth was gone, he just had to say it anyways. Although Tamuril did have that small conversation in his head with Sloth, it would appear as if nothing had happened. Not even the pendant turned any color, he just remained the same as he did before.

((Tamuril is having conversations with people in his head and pretty jewelery. =D))
Takara looked up at Tamuril, bringing her hands away from Eveel's food and letting the dragon reach up and take a piece. "Hm? Oh... I suppose." That was all she responded with, making a movement with her hands. She'd been taught that shrugging was vulgar and so it had been "smacked" out of her when her teachers would slap that stick against her hands. That had been years ago, when she was still being hidden away. They would snap something like a ruler against her hands whenever she would day dream and do something that they didn't want her to. For things like dancing Takara got smacked on the back, and sometimes pinched to make her bolt up-right. "Pain is beauty." That was what her mother had told her once, and Takara had heard it many more times afterwards. Takara then noticed a plate with a white soup and bread, and knew that that was hers. It was what the cooks would always send up to her, and what she would usually order. Tuscana, one of her brother's favorites. She reached out and pulled the two items towards herself, then placing her hands together and lowering her head. She gave a silent prayer to Eros, the god of earth, Alexia, Domicus, and then Maria goddess of water. It was a common prayer, used to thank all four gods. There were more gods, but because those four were the ones who created the world they were brought to thanks for things like food.
Takara just ate about a quarter of what she had been given before stopping, wiping her mouth with a napkin and then setting that in front of her as well. A messanger than arrived, telling Takara that the council wanted to see her. She sent him off, looking over at Tamuril and giving him a gentle smile. "It is getting very close to nightfall, so be sure to get rest. I will see you soon." Takara then stood up, Eveel setting his own food back on his plate and then jumping up onto her shoulder. Takara laid her hand on Tamuril's shoulder, giving it a gentle squeeze before she turned away and left.
Now they were in the halls, which were mostly empty save for a few gaurds standing... well, gaurd. In one of the empty halls Takara stopped, turning her head to look out a window. Night had already come, and now the moon was shining brightly even though it was only half full. "...I miss Shin." Eveel suddenly remarked, making Takara turn her eyes away from the sky. She reached over, pulling the baby dragon from her shoulder and holding him softly.
"I do too." Takara answered, looking down at the dragon as she rubbed her finger against his cheek. Her garden... she didn't think that she could go there again. Knowing that Shin had been brutally stabbed to death there, his blood spewing out and being soaked up by the soil. And Tamuril, standing there over him. When Takara looked at Tamuril she didn't see the killer, but when she saw that pendant around his neck, his image seemed to bend. It wasn't hard to believe that Shin was dead, she was used to death. It was always around her, leering over her shoulder and wrapped its frozen fingers around her neck. But just the fact that he was gone.... That sweet boy. That sweet, adorable little Shin, holding his cat Kirra and touching her stomach to feel the kittens that were waiting inside. Then he had changed too, gone off and attacked Tamuril with that burning hatred of rage and jealousy seething in his eyes. Why Shin? Even Shin was dead! Now all that she had left was Tamuril and Eveel. She hadn't even had time to mourn over Shin's death, her attention suddenly pulled over to Tamuril who was so close to dieing too.
"I miss Shin very much." Takara added softly, Eveel closing his eyes and leaning against her cleavage.

((The idea came from PoP. Well, not the pretty jewelry part but the conversation part did xD. O_o, Tamuril run away? ;o))
Tamuril looked over at Takara's meal. She had merely eaten a quarter of what was given, but at least she did eat. Tamuril, however, was quite hungry, and ate everything given and a little extra. The meal today, a simple composure of potatoes, steak and some vegetables, had been made exceptionally well.
Tamuril wiped his mouth with a napkin, much like Takara did. His head turned to the chef. Out from his mouth came compliments for his meal. He soon left the kitchen, and chased off to where Takara was going. Even if it was a coucil meeting, he still had to protect her there.
Tamuril walked through the halls solemly, searching for Takara. Around a corner, his eyes caught a peice of her dress. As he approached the corner he heard something that instantly struck a pain into his heart."I miss Shin very much." Tamuril looked down at the ground shamefully. Shin was that spy. Him and Takara must have gained some sort of special relationship, and Tamuril came and killed Shin. Tamuril imagined how much pain he must have caused to several people. His hand became a fist, and smashed into the wall. Anger built up inside of him, as a low'pitched 'Dammit...' came out his mouth.
Tamuril turned around, and bolted down through the hall. In less than two minutes he had made himself on to the roof. "Damn damn damn damn damn damn damn!" Tamuril said, falling on to his back. His eyes looked up into the skies, glancing about at the stars. HIs arms and legs were spread out, the light, chilly breeze swaying his clothes about. "Maybe I should just leave...End all of this suffering..."

Reen glanced one more time at Cell before heading to the castle. It wasn't hard for Reen to use her wind minipulation to lift herself up and move around for at most 3 days straight. After having to lift herself and Cell up, Reen felt like she could go much longer then that. The cat demon flew over to the castle and stopped a little ways above it.
Looking down to the roof she spotted her beloved's killer. Anger boiled inside of her. Amist in that anger, confusion arose. Why had he killed him? What had her beloved done? Well, she would find out now. She had used a lot of time just wondering and not doing anything about his death. She could also ask were the keys were in her questions.
Suddenly Reen flew down and softly landed next to his killer. She would have landed harder then that is she had more weight on her, but she was only 95 pounds. The demon glared fire and daggers at the human laying infront of her. Flicking her tail in a pissed off way, Reen growled, "You. You were the one who murdered Shin! What did he do to get that??!! I had spent most of my life looking for him, only to find him on his dieing day. Tell me! Why did you kill him?!" A tear fall from Reen's face as her vioce went into a yell. "I must know. Shin and I were to get married. Who could you take that from me after searching for seven bloody years!" With that, Reen fell to her knees and burried her face into her hands.

((What!? NO! Tamuril must stay! -sobs-))
Takara turned her head when she heard something smash into the wall that was just around the corner, jumping in surprise from the sound. She waited a few seconds before going over, looking to see what had fallen and didn't see anything. It was only until Eveel went: "...Tamuril...." That she realized what had just happened. She went down the hall, but by then she knew that he was gone. She brought a hand, laying it on the wall and looking around, hoping to catch of glimsp of him even though she knew that he wouldn't be there. Takara reached up and placed her hand around the diamond of air, silently asking it to find Tamuril for her. Once it did she went to where he had gone, though as she made it to where the entrance to where the roof was she stopped, just opening the door a crack. Takara could hear him saying something to himself, though she couldn't quite catch what. Eveel looked up at her, tilting his head. Takara looked back but didn't smile or tilt her head like he had done, only closing the door and stepping away from it. Then she turned around, walking away as she held Eveel close to herself. She shouldn't listen to what he was saying....
A few minutes passed and she was back in the maze of the halls, though she knew exactly where she was going. Takara didn't feel like going to the council, considering that she knew that Tamuril had heard what she had said. Who knew what he was thinking?
Takara's first thought was to go to her garden, but soon afterwards she decided against it and decided to go where she hadn't been in quite a while. She traveled far down and into the hidden library where the memory book and where she'd also found Eveel. Takara found herself sitting on her ankles, the memory book opened on her lap. She stared blankly down at the first page that read "Takara Trusar I", Eveel on her shoulder. Eventually she shut it and stood up, walking back into the main part of the library and standing there.
'...Takara....'
Takara turned her head, hearing the same voice that had led her to Eveel that one day. Her eyes held no expression, though instead of staying silent she responded with this: "Yes?"
'Come here, child.' Takara at first didn't respond, thinking to herself for a few seconds before going to where the voice led her to. She suddenly felt numb again, just like how she always used to. She went to where she felt pulled to and saw that part of the wall had opened it. She went inside, the wall shutting up behind her. It was just as cold as it was how she felt, Eveel shivering in her arms. Then: "Please don't..." Eveel begged, making Takara stop, looking down as she felt something wet and warm against her skin. He was crying. "Please don't go down here. It's bad, mother, please don't go down here."
"...Eveel...."

Tamuril's body didn't move, even with the arrival of Reen. "She's annoying, I say." Tamuril closed his eyes, and amazingly nodded in agreement. "Yes, very annoying." His head turned, eyes finally opening. The pendant lightly changed color. "Can't she see I'm trying to find solidtude? Why does talk about Shin never leave me! I want to be left alone!" His mouth opened, but at first nothing came out. "Leave me! I seek solitude!" After a few seconds, Tamuril seemed to grow impatient with them not leaving. "I said leave me alone!" It was like he didn't even care where she went, or why she was going to where she was going. All Tamuril wanted was to be left alone, as more and more anger builded up inside of him. If he wasn't left alone, he might even transform.

With her eyes filled with tear Reen looked up. "b*****d. No I won't leave you alone. You have to tell me why you killed him. Tell me damnit!" Reen screamed. A fire ball formed in both of her hands as she aimed them at Tamuril.

His body began to fill with rage, a slight eveil aura consuming him slowly. His eyes glared over at Reen. Why wasn't she just leaving? Did she want to fight Tamuril, and suffer the same fate as Shin? "The traitor attacked me, and so I defended myself. End of story, now leave me be!" He still hadn't moved a muscle, except for his neck and head. Even when Reen threatened him with her fireball, he still lied there.

"Why?" Takara asked Eveel, the dragon shivering against her.
"...Because...." Eveel whispered back, his eyes closed as another tear dripped from one of his soft golden eyes. He cuddled against her cleavage, whimpering softly. Takara stood there a few minutes until she felt the jewels push her, and without any decision of her own her legs started moving. She walked down the darkened hall, going farther and father.... She could feel it. Time was warped here. Was it going faster here, or slower? She couldn't tell. But her legs wouldn't stop, and she just kept on walking. For hours. Her feet began to get sore, but because she couldn't stop, she couldn't rest. Then the area opened up and there was another wide room, so wide and tall that she couldn't even see the ceiling or the walls. Only a door.
That black door.
With no handles.
A shiver spiked up her spine, though she stayed where she was, despite the fact that she did have control over her movement again. Eveel was crying again, wetting her dress though he didn't make any noise.
...And outside....
A knight raced over to the capital's gates, his horse's hooves crashing against the ground. Then he arrived at the gate, pulling the reins back and waving one arm desperately. "Ehsar is attacking! They're coming here for the Capital! Alert the queen immediately!" And so they did search. But their queen wasn't anywhere near where they currently were. Panic stuck, and so the council grasped control, sending out troops to prepare for the attack that was approaching. The entire castle was searched but to no sighting of Takara. They even searched the capital and for a period of time out of the gates but not even a single trace. Eventually the gates were only shut, men lining the walls while the council were spread out everywhere giving out orders instead of the queen of Trusar.
Back where Takara was, she was sitting on the ground, staring at the door with Eveel curled out against her lap.
"...So then..." Takara whispered softly to herself, her eyes beginning to close slowly. "It is all so simple to me now. It all makes sense." She looked down at Eveel, who was just trying to stay as close to her as possible. "This is why you did not want me to come down here." She lifted her head up, returning her eyes to blank black door. Come to think of it, it looked more like a wall. So how had she known that it was a door? "I am sorry Tamuril... Eveel...."
"No!" Eveel jumped, scratching her stomach and shaking his head. "No! No! No!"
"Hush." Takara responded, gathering him up into her arms and holding him close like before. She rocked him gently, singing the lullaby that Tamuril had sung to her. Maybe this wouldn't end the war, but just imagine how greatly it would help Trusar? She was sorry, very sorry, to Tamuril and Eveel. The only two who she knew really cared about her. But wasn't this how it should be? She was the queen of Trusar.

Tamuril instantly jumped up, snapping out of his anger. The pendant returned back to it's normal color, and Tamuril ran up to the edge of the rooftop. His eyes looked down on horror as he saw many Ehsar forces gathering. This was no minor attack like before, this was serious now. His head turned back to look at Reen, who was just standing there. "Sorry about Shin, but I cannot bother with you now. I will try and explain everything later." With that said, Tamuril hopped over the ledge. His decent came fast, and before he knew it he had landed hard on the ground. All around him were knights charging to the battlefield. "Knights, ready for combat!" Tamuril screamed out. He ran to where the combat would most likely take place.

Reen growled and trew both of her fire balls at the leaving Tamuril. She missed and just glared at him. Reen turned and walked to the door that went into the castle. The demon walked down the halls, noticing all the buzz going around about Ehsar attacking.
Maybe she could help a little after getting the key. Reen searched a lot of the rooms and hiding whentever a knight ran along. Soon she found a room that held the key. It looked like a high up person's room, so it must have been the queens. Reen grinned in trumphent and ran out of the castle.
The cat demon flew her way back to Cell. Noteing the forever aproching troups of the Ehsar emiper. She got back to Cell and started to unlock the bands once she touched the ground. When they were all gone Reen stood up and faced the direction the troups were comong from. "The Ehsar Army is coming to attack. What do you want to do? I plan to help the Trusarians." Reen stated.

He snapped back to reality when he heard the knights saying that they were being attacked. He started to run towards the main gate. His right hand formed into a stiff gesture in front of his face as he started to chant underneath his breath. The sheathes of his claymores started to glow darkly as runes appeared on it. The claymores then vanished from her romm and appeared in his left hand. He kept running although the spell worn him out quite a bit, with sweat forming on his body. He got to the gate and jumped on top with one leap. He resolutely stood at the front, claymores in hand. He then strapped on the claymores, and drew the blades. They were swimming with runes, as the blades sensed a battle coming. He held the blades in lined with his arms, as the points were aimed diagonally to the ground. His eyes cold and fierce, this battle he was going to fight was in memory of his people. The dreams they had, the love for themselves and others, and for revenge for what these wars has done to his people. They were gone, but he was here. 'til his blood oath he took so long ago was fulfilled, he was going to fight.
