"Of course you can come." See he had a good idea. And then a look to Arthur as he came upon the scene as well. "You want to come to Arthur?" Nope he didn't address adults with titles...after all he was raised to think his family was above everyone else's in some aspect. "We're taking Isleandra on a tour. You can bring up the rear." Because he was leader on this journey.
Isle gave a giggle at the enthusiasm and then a look to Galesen, tilting her head at him and giving him a smile, he wasn't half bad looking and Isle was known to indulge a fling or two. She cleared her throat, trying to adjust to speaking in common since everyone else was. She could just get used to the accent. "Yes, why don't you join us Galesen? After all, you can see the things above the doorknobs while Malikhai and see the things below. Besides, if this tour includes...outside..." was it classified as outside?, " then we need someone to protect us. Two little elves and a bard I'm sure aren't too imposing."
He sighed, knowing that he was coming off a little too harsh to his son's questions but they were tender spots that he didn't want to deal with really. Though an raised eyebfow look to Zahara as she took up the subject and expanded on it. Did she have to do that? Why couldn't she just leave it alone and not worry about it anymore?
But thank little elves for wandering minds sometimes indeed. And he took Zahara's answer and put it to someone else. "Whatever you want Zykariel, you know I'm not picky and you were a good partner today at work. So you get to have whatever you want." And Sevilin would try to cook it. ANd yes he was in part trying to make up for being so short with the boy. he coudln't help it...he was a little stressed right now.
Of course it didn't take long for someone to notice the dog, Keely in this case who walked over and pet each head. She was used to seeing him and often spoiled him. After all, she vistied Meilikki enough these days. "Hiya boy." Taking the case from him.

"Oh goodie." Then a glance over to Arthur and Lharika let go of Malikhai and walked over to Arthur. "Yeah Arthur, please come with us? It'll be lots of fun."
"I can have anything I want?" Glancing at Zahara to make sure.
"That's what your dad said."
He grinned happily and licked off the last bit of peanut butter. "I want cookies and ice cream and a little piece of chocolate cake with some hot fudge on the side?"

Well it seems that Arthur arrive just in the nick of time, it seems that little Malikhai was going to talk Isle on a tour of the place and he offered Arthur to come along if he wanted to, well as he thought about it the surface elf looked over at Isle for a second, then smiled lightly as he looked down at Lharika who came over to him. "Sure why not? I wouldn't mind coming along it would help to 'refresh' my memory of the place..." His voice trailed off a little bit as he looked down at the tiny blue skin drow. "And with you as our leader I believe that this tour will be excellent." Though his attention turned back to Isle when she had to clear her throat so she could speak to him, it seems she was switching back and forth between languages for everyone which after awhile would be annoying for her. "Well with my sword at my side I'll be able to protect all of you from the dangers outside if a creature happens to come across us." He said with a light chuckle and sighed lightly as he looked over the little group, they are going to have a fun time on this tour as long as Malikhai would stay as cheerful as he was, he was so cute, Piper and Malik should be proud to have a child like him.

Deidricked barked happily at Keely. He loved comming here, little kids to pet him, wonderful Keely to feed him..."Keely! Can I have a treat?" Dog at heart. "That's a letter for Piper. My Mistress wants to see her." He tapped a tooth. "I think."

A nod to all in present company and he took hold of Lark's hand and lead the little group off, leaving his parents to his decisions and what not. He was going to play good host now. Which of course did lead on a tour around the house...non too exciting really, but it was for him and he pointed out all the quirks. But yes, since he was accompanied by adults, the tour eventually lead out to the stables and what not. "And there is where mommy does her work...unlike daddy who does his inside in the basement. I'm not supposed to go down here, and I can't ride yet. Mommy says I'm too little on my own. " Pouting some at that.
Isle merely stayed cheerful through the whole experience, after all, she had never been to the underdark. A few deep mountainous caves and what not but never the underdark. However, going outside, she pulled a stone from her pocket and held it to her eyes, the teal orbs suddenly taking on that strange glow again. That was better. "I'm sure you'll be big enough soon Malikhai." A rub at her eyes...it was always uncomfortable at first.
"Sure, dessert for dinner, why not?" Yes he was letting the child have sugar for dinner...not that he intended to eat it himself, he wasn't feeling the mood for food...often didn't when he was off kilter. Moving around the kitchen some and cleaning up some things he thought were out of place.
"Of course you may." Keely's pockets were always full of treats, even the meat kind seeing as they had nightmares around the place. Thus a piece of jerky was pulled from her pocket, three pieces rather, and held out to him. "Really? I do believe Piper was just thinking about paying her a visit too. Great minds think alike though." Giving a little giggle and scratching each set of ears. "Hopefully a casual visit."

Lharika added her own two cents to a few of the places Malikhai took them, telling Isle little stories about the adventures she'd gotten into down in the underdark. But it was Malikhai's tour so she always let him choose where they were going to go and say what he wanted to say first. "Piper is just trying to keep you from getting hurt Malikhai. Show us the lake next. It's the only monster free body of water in the whole big underdark!"
"I get to have cookies for dinner! Did you hear that Zara?" he asked quite pleased with himself.
"I heard." Indeed Zahara's eyes were quite wide at Sevilin's acceptance of the child testing him. Zykariel knew he usually wasn't allowed to have sugar for mealtimes but he would constantly test both of them to see if they would capitulate. Apparently now, he was going to. "Zykariel finish your snack and then clean up before you go play." Thus walking over to Sevilin and reaching for his arm. "You, upstairs. We need to talk, right now."

Well Arthur stay all nice and happy while on this tour, he could tell it was boring he just came along because they others had asked him to, but he noticed how the little drow was all excited when pointing out certain things of the house and he was being really polite to them which, Arthur noted, was a definite plus in his book. Though when they were brought out to the stables Arthur wanted to bring out Brahnel and show them his new steed, though he would have to wait since the little blue drow wasn't finished with his tour yet, when Malikhai said that he wasn't able to go down into the basement Arthur lightly laughed at that and patted the little guy's head. "Don't worry about that yet Malikhai, your young and your still learning new things about life and right now the basement is not fit for you but one day you'll be allowed so don't worry, and riding? just give it time and you'll be enjoying it soon enough." Though he turned his attention to Isle who seemed to be rubbing her eyes a little bit, of course Arthur was a bit worried he is always like that when he thought there was something wrong. "You okay Lady Rainsong?" He asked with a light smile. Though when she answered Arthur nodded and turned back to the children with an idea in his head. "Well Lharika do you want to see my stallion Brahnel first? I just go him today and he's really beautiful I think he'll like you and Malikhai, but there is one catch: You guys cannot take him for a ride, you can sit on him but no riding okay?" Well why not let the little ones see Brahnel? It'll be a good experience for them and they would get a kick of seeing his Zephmare.

"Brahnel is yours now? Did mommy sell him to you?" After all, he knew all of those horses by thier names. He spent loads of time around them, especially the little foals which mommy let him handle if he was careful and didn't try to ride them. They were too little just like he was. A turn to Isle. "Mommy sells the horses, but not to bad people." Tilting his head at her as he noticed the actual glow coming from her eyes. "Mommy can do that too." Pointing of course. "How come I can't if you and mommy can?" A look to Lark. "You've done it too before. Is it a girl thing?" Obviously just now noticing that he didn't do it too. But then lake distraction and he got all excited. "The lake! Nothing bad lives in our lake! Mommy takes me out there all the time and sometimes daddy goes swimming with us too." Before another look to Arthur. "Brahnel is a show off."
Isle merely continued in her melodic chuckling, idly fingering her flute from time to time out of habit. Bards did that, they couldn't help it...and beign an elf...well there was a melody in everything. Though a look to Galesen, that glow in her eyes adding to her accent for that whole etheral thing she had going on. "I'm fine...just getting used to an ability I haven't used in a while." Returning her attention to the little elves that were all energetic and what not. "I take it underdark water isn't overly friendly, yes?"
"No fuss when it's bedtime thought." Though his attention shifted to Zahara as she stepped over to him, reaching for him to which he took a step back from her to stay at arms length. He never did like being grabbed at. "No we don't, we're fine. Zykariel, go on, I'll get it." Waiting for the boy to slip down and trot off before he headed to the table and picked up the peanut butter smeared plate and taking it them to the sink.

"Zahara has a couple too. She works with Piper sometimes I think. But she likes Nightmares better, she just doesn't like to say it around the rest of the horses." Thus lowering her voice to a whisper. "I think she thinks it hurts the other horses feelings." Then looking at Malikhai for a minute she thought about how to tell him that she had to do that sometimes to see down here since it was so dark adn she didn't have the sun anymore. But then he started talking about the lake which was one of her favorite things and she joined him in excitement. "Not at all Isle. Piper took me to the other lake one time and something tried to eat my toes!"
She crossed her arms and leaned back against the counter shaking her head, waiting for Zykariel to go off and play as well. "No we're not Sevilin. What is your problem? You are clearly upset about something. I'm picking up on it and so is Zykariel. He thinks you're mad at him." A shake of her head and she picked up a rag and walked over to the table to scrub at the now dried on peanut butter. "What happened to piss you off so much? Arthur being himself again? Malik give you too much work." And then she paused. "Or are you mad at me?"

Arthur nodded to the tiny drow. "Yeah he's mine now, I plan on taking him out for a ride sometime later on, to get use to riding him." Though he blinked a few times when Malikhai just bluntly said that his horse was a show off, though after a minute or two the elf just laughed and smiled. "Well you maybe right little on but I don't mind me and Brahnel accept each other fully and are glad to be together." Yup Arthur was proud at the choice he had made when picking his steed and from the moment Brahnel starts to live with him the elf will always take care of anything that the horse needs. Though Arthur looked back to Isle and nodded lightly. "Yeah using a spell that you haven't done in a long time can bug you a bit." Looking down at his hands the elf flexed his digits a little and nodded lightly at them. "I know the feeling." He said with a light grin at Isle before turning back to the little ones. "Alright then since you don't want to see him I guess we'll be going to the lake, I've been there a few times so it's a prefect spot to visit." Of course that last bit was directed to Isle, she didn't need to worry about the lake and with his comment on the subject it should convince her to go with them.

Dragomyzl let out a laugh, it seemed that once again his mood has changed. "Pretty Elf, she's silly. I no can't leave world, Elf Lady said so. I find Dragon's eye Crystal, I smash, save world." Dragomyzl flashed the woman a grin, much like a child, who believes that he has spurted out great words, but in fact has babbled only nonsense.
Again his face was contorted in pain, his emotionless features returned to his face. Why had he let himself become part of this fiasco? Was he destined to be stuck in this putrid body, with them? "Please ignore my sudden outburst. If you are as sure as you say that what I seek is not here, then I see no reason to stay here, but I will require a guide, someone that knows this world, it's obvious that I do not. Any chance you could point towards such an indiviual?" He asked, his voice once more emotionless.

"Don't worry about him thining I'm mad at him, I'll deal with it." After all, she wanted to be the babysitter, not the parent. But he spent a moment in silence, quick washing the plate he had in hand, drying it and even putting it away where it was supposed to go even. Reorganizing his thoughts in his head, trying to figure how to come off less hostile.
"Malik took it upon himself to tell Zykariel that we're Llothian, along with that the reasons of why I'm passive as I am. Apparently to quell the boy's fear of him." There, that was all he was saying about it for now. Looking down at the floor with that analyzing thinking about scrubbing it look.
"Silly Arthur." Shaking his head at the older elf. He was too used to hearing it all that he really didn't pay the horse talk any mind. The only talk about them he was really concerned with was the talking they did to him and if he could understand them. It was a slow process. "Come on!" Thus toddling from one area to the next, more pointedly the lake. He walked up to the edge and crouched down, plopping his hand in the water. "See? Nothing tries to eat me!"
Isleandra wiggled her blue tipped toes inside her boots. "Yikes." Before a look to Galesen again. "It's not a spell." Stated matter of factly before at the child's urging she followed out to the water. "Might fine lake indeed...ever go sailing on it?" Big enough for real sailing? Of course not, but you could float a small boat in there and it would be quite nice. Ah yes her love of sailing worked in the underdark as well...she just hoped her own sailboat would be fine back home. Isle crossed her arms lightly, letting her cape settle with the movement. Though then a blink and she looked at it. She had forgotten to turn it before she came, thus she was still wearing the brihgt yellow side on the outside. "Um, is it alright to be wearing this bright a color down here?"

"I think you're okay for now Isle. After all, we're on Twilight land and most things don't venture on here. That's why we're allowed outside though usually we have to have an adult with us. Just turn it next time you come out." She grinned. "I like the purple side better anyway." She walked over to the edge of the lake as well, the toes of her boots sticking out a little bit and put her hands behind her back, bending over and looking in. "Your boat's too big for this lake silly. Isle really loves to sail," speaking to the boys who didn't know her too well. "She's real good at it too. Daddy Kieran lets me go with her sometimes." Putting her hand over her mouth to stop a giggle. "And sometimes he doesn't know but I go anyway."
Zahara stopped scrubbing the table and turned to stare at him. "What?!" Malik had told Zykariel about Llothians. "Well how much did he say?" Did Zykariel know about instincts? Did he know the sexual aspects? Had Malik glossed over anything at all? It's not like he really knew what went on in that sort of society anyway. He just thought he did. What did the boy know? Had that heralded the family questions? What was Malik thinking? "You're passive because..." A shake of her head before sitting down at the table. "Poor kid. Did you talk to him about it?" Him meaning either Malik or Zykariel.

Arthur just let the little comment made by Malikhai just slip away and didn't let it bother him at all, though he hates it when people talk to him like that. "Oh well then learn something everyday huh?" He said to Isle comment and sighed lightly, nice way to make him look like an idiot, though that was clearly forgotten as they made their ways towards the lake and right when they got there the little drow just placed his hands in the water with no hesitation and he chuckled, how funny it is to see an elf so carefree of everything in the world and the only thing on his mind is fun and happy times. Though when Isle mentioned Sail that caught Arthur attention, so she sails huh? Well more new and exciting things keep on popping up whenever he was around this woman, she was very interesting, but when she commented about her bright colors Arthur shrugged a little bit. "It's okay you don't have to worry about anything around here we are pretty safe." Its true Arthur always walked to Twilight on a daily basis and he has barely encounter a wild creature he had to take care of, so the area they were in was alright. When little Lharika start to talk about Isle's love for sailing he listened very carefully and smiled a little at the girl's mention of her childlike ways. "Well I sail too, my boat is close to my house but I haven't used it in awhile since I started to live here at Twilight, but that doesn't stop me from going back to it and checking it very once and awhile." Arthur loved his boat, he has sailed as much as he could as a young lad and now he takes his boat where he knows he could go without too much danger bugging him, but there where times he had to defend himself from the odd pirates or thieves and what not but they weren't a big of a deal.

Three heads chewed happily on the jerky. She even fed all three heads, how nice is that? "I shouldn't think so. If it were urgent, she wouldn't have sent me. She'd need me if it were urgent." He was pretty sure anyway. "Keely is welcome to come too, if she likes."
Inside, Leaf was a little freaked out. This...corpse...should have been lefta corpse. With any luck it would just rot and whoever was inside it wouldn't be able to function anymore. She thought for a moment on his request. Send him a wild goose chase, send him to the right person...she didn't care wich.
"Go see Malik in the Fortress to the East of here. He will recieve you well."
