Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Yeah, I think it was cause I had kept my head stuck in books up in the library. I dunno if I could be as chatty as I was back then, though; either I'd run out of things to say, or my mouth would run off from me." she also laughed as the two took seats a bit away from the commotion up front. It was nice to be able to talk to someone other than her brother for a change.

"Reading is a very healthy habit, though lately I've taken to observations, finally. I've been researching and studying the plants and animals back at home, and recording all sorts of stuff. Perhaps I'll make a book one day." she shrugged. "But I mainly do it for fun."

Evan looked at the boy as he was obviously having some family issues; most likely from the stresses of working with this whole marry-the-Golden-Fairy-to-stop-the-war thing. "Eh, I think everyone's been tense lately, with all the stuff going on." he agreed.

Elc laughed. "Indeed there are."

(( ... not really sure what else to put there sweatdrop ))

((Sorry, should have given you more to work with, I guess))

"Tell me," Koreck mused, not looking at Elc but instead the threads of the table cloth, "How much do you know about this legend of the Fairy of Gold?" he tried to speak quietly, as to not attract the attention of those nearby. He was quite curious as to how much information Veera had given out. The tale was quite extensive, and he knew that many of the less important details must have been left out. But he had never actually asked anyone. And since this man was the Oracle, he seemed like someone that would know more than most anyways. And Koreck was not one to withold interesting tidbits when it suited him to reveal them. Besides, Veera wouldn't mind too much.

Elc frowned and he glanced over at the Lady in question. "Not much, I'm afraid," he replied in an equally low tone, "Only that she used to be a human. I've only just recently returned from a trip to the human world, so I'm as in the dark as anyone about this." He looked at Koreck, curiosity gleaming in his eyes. "I was going to ask her some things tonight if I got the chance," he said slowly. "And you? Being so close to Queen Veera, perhaps you've heard something?"

Koreck snickered, "Oh I've heard all I need and more. Lady Veera is not entitled to keep information from me if I request it. But that's another story," he coughed, and folded his hands on the table, "Miss Faye has no memory of the transformation, which I suppose is for the best. Whenever a being turns from one thing to another, it is never without pain. Just having wings grow out of one back would likely be painful enough to make her faint on her own. She's lucky that whatever turned her into what she is now was merciful enough to knock her out first."

He shook his head, a slight grimace on his face He knew what that pain was like. He had to go through it any time he shifted forms, so naturally, he tried to avoid that whenever possible, even if he was use to it to some extent.

"Do you have any specific questions?" he cocked he head, pushing his thoughts aside.

It was with a small amount of surprise that Cain realized that he actually liked Evan. Well, wasn't that shocking? And once he realized and accepted that little tid bit he relaxed a little bit and felt less on edge and like he had to compete with the other prince; Maybe if he thought of Evan more as a friend and less as competion then if he didn't win Faye over and Evan did he could accept it more and be happy for the Wind fairy. Yes, that was it, that was exactly how he'd view things from now on. After all, he had no real quarrel with him. "I have a feeling that my father might actually disown me if I "fail him" this time, though. I've never been quite the son he wanted." Cain laughed in a slightly bitter but still amused sounding tone.

Evan noticed now that Cain seemed more relaxed now, as if he was more comfortable talking with the two. "Why would he do that?" Evan asked, rather surprsied. He knew that the family never got along well with each other, but they obviously needed a heir, right? Sure, they could put Lasarina in charge, but it'd still be a cheap shot.

Violet noticed the girl lean foward sudddenly, hanging on to every word. That was odd; perhaps they were more alike than she realized. "U-uh, well, I still have what I've got so far with me, if you want to take a look...just be careful." Violet said, and reached into her bag that was around her shoulder. She took out the decorated notebook and sat it on the table, being careful not to spill anything on it. She had no backup copy, but a notebook cover that was waterproof, to a point.
