Welcome to Gaia! ::

Asalah nodded and picked out another date. She dared not touch the other date she had bitten into. She took a bite into the new one and her eyes lit up. After chewing and swallowing she said to Malik, "I really like that you've provided me food husband, but this date is far too sweet. I'm starting to wonder, perhaps did these dates come from a bad crop in your kingdom today or is my taste really off today? Which do you think it is?" She held out this new date in front of her and beckoned for Malik to come and taste it. She was slightly mad, but did not show this. Not to him at least.

"Every prince has at least one quirk." She told him. Even her brothers were like that. She watched as he walked away and onto the balcony before asking the question about her homeland. There are a few differences from her. There is more greenery, women don't show as much skin and of course the food and modes of travel." She answered him. "But my father, like yours, had many wives and children from his many wives." She answered him. She was going to be fine if her husband took in more women compared to the girls to the north that seemed to hate their husbands taking in more women.



Malik took in the idea. He wasn't always sure on that type of question. "Figs are like grapes. They come in many favors and each on is not the same as the last." He answered her as he continued on his meal. "You must just be a picky eater." He teased with a smile.


The Adviser looked at the young woman. It was an interesting question. "You may not leave the grounds of the palace unless your are visiting with the princes. The courtyards and gardens are open to anyone who is living here." He answered.

"I knew it." Eden huffed under her breath. She brushed her hair back, "Well, thanks anyway, I'll just retire to my quarters now." She felt a sinking feeling in her stomach and she turned back and went to her chambers. Of course she would be cooped up in this castle, as nice as it was. Her only excuse for leaving was to visit and man who had a wife already. Unless she had a son before the first wife, she would never be important anyway. What a way to end her years, and girl who was living any way she wanted and seeing every land available, reduced to a princes who could go no further than the garden. She got to her room and collapsed into her bed, tucking herself deeply within the Luxurious sheets and covers.

Asalah huffed and ate the fig without saying another word. "So what if she was a picky eater?" she thought to herself. The fruit she was eating felt slightly off to her and almost made her not want to it eat. But she did because that was what was there and she was hungry.

Eden tossed and turned for a few hours before requesting that a bath be run for her. She requested the whole nine yards, rose petals, oils, bubble bath and all. She soaked for an hour in the warm waters and allowed her body to relax. She had a big choice she would have to make sometime soon. Thinking of her choices, she wasn't any more sure than earlier. They all had wives they were newly married to. But to dishonor her kingdom by being sent home was not an option. She ran her fingers through the wet ends of her hair and continued to review her options.

Cure stood up straight and turned to her he lifted up part of her robe to cover her shoulder but then stepped closer to her "Your the first wife of mine who hasn't ran yet." he said his face close to her's "I'll give you a chance to run if you wish few make it out so if want to leave it better run." he said his hand on her bare shoulder rough skin agenst soft. he looked down upon her

Cure made a small smirk and let the shoulder of her robe fall it fell further now and he looked at Tien's eyes his seeming to dull a little a grew closer to her and bent down to her ear. "If that is what you really want...." he kissed the side of her neck with an devilish smile on his face
