Well Arthur entered the room he took note on how well the room was kept, then he saw Meilikki and gave a light nod before finding his own seat on the other side of Isle with his katana on his lap, just like he always sits. So he watched silently as Malik talked and Piper gave the introductions of himself, Isle, Lharika, and her son, he gave a small nod and smiled lightly. "Hello Meilikki it's a pleasure to meet you." Though that's all he said as he leaned back into his seat, a nice comfortable chair which he was happy to sit in.

Rusty followed Deidrick towards the door and smiled when it made the comment of having no thumbs. He got infront of the creature and opened the door for his guide.
"Ermm... so Meilikki... She seems like a nice girl." He asked in a low unsure tone as he walked outside.

Keely gave a giggle. "Not that much. But my hair did get longer." The girl staying still as Meilikki straightened said blonde hair. Then another giggle as the woman gave explanations of sorts and Keely gave an affirming nod. "Lot's of paperwork on her plate and people being needy. She spends as much time on papers as Lord D'vinn, I dare say." No, she wasn't embellishing.
"Cliches are what hold things together sometimes. After all, we learn so many things through the little statements that have been memorized and repeated over and over to us, especially in our younger years." Isleandra never could keep her mouth shut too long, it just didn't happen.
Piper gave her own chuckle. "Well, we all have to play the responsible adults these days. You have Honorsfield and politics to keep up with and I have a toddler to occupy my time with. One whom is not eager to idly sit and tend to his studies and such." Reaching over with a chuckle and brushing her fingers through Malikhai's hair.
"Mommy!" Promptly shooing her hands away as he had decided that she was messing up his hair and making the red and black portion get all mixed up. The red was always supposed to broder the black, always. "And I do my work...when it's fun." Giving her one of those charming little grins of his as one of his hands held to his father's free one. A look to Meilikki as he decided to be curious. "Mommy said you used to be a oracle...did you teach her how to be? She's our oracle when me and Zykariel play pirates." Weren't children's understanding fun? Never mind that Piper wasn't really an oracle, or that Meilikki didnt' even know his best friend.

Meilikki set Keely on a stool in front of her and started to braid the girls hair. "Yes, too much paper work. But at least I keep busy."
"One with the proper words does not need to relie on the cliche to express ones feelings. But alas, words escape even me sometimes."
"It seems we both of have children to look after. Although I can understand soemone wanting to be a mother, but I can't understand anyone wanting my job. It's much to stressful, if your trying to do it right."
"Teach your mother to be an Oracle? why yes, I did. I taught her everything she knows. She learned so well, she can see when you're being bad."
"My Mistress is a woman." Said Deidirck happily as he bounded out the door and down the street, then back again. "Come this way Rusty, Moonstone is this way." He trotted off at a good pace, three heads barking as he went.

Lharika had picked this time to revert to the shyness that manifested itself at random points. Kieran had tried to cure her of it but it still poppped up every once in a while. Isle was her cover right now and she just scootched closer to the other elf.
"I dunno. It's swimming around down there." He glanced back up at his father then reached his hand in the water and swished it around before dropping the rock into the water and watching the thing lurking snatch it before it could drop very far. He giggled then searched around for another rock to feed the thing. "I think it's a fish Daddy."

Malik stayed quiet though Piper made him sit down, and his son promptly got up on his lap.
"though I think there is someone else here that is interested but shy as well."
reffering of course to the other elven child in the area.
"And paperwork is a good an important thing. not everyone can remember every detail all the time, and paperwork helps with that by cataloging and recording."

Rusty followed the happy and bouncy Deidrick. "A woman, right. That's what I meant... A nice woman...."
As he followed the beast he looked around creating landmarks for himself. That way the next time he wanted to go to Moonstone's or anywhere important he'd know where to go. Well at least that's what he hoped.

Tarathiel froze when the tall blue skinned elf, or what he thought was an elf with blue skin, recognized that he was hidding. The cat out of the bag, so the child saw no reason to be so subtle in his oberservations, and rolled around the corner, and leaned agains the door frame. He looked about the room more carefully, memorizing specific traits on each person. Later, if he saw them again, no mater how much they grew, he would recognize them as being part of this group. Even should the blue skinned ones dye their colour pink, Tarathiel wou;ld be able to spot them in a crowd. He was not doing this for any reason beyond childish curiosity. Testing himself maybe.

"I think you both just like to be able to see what you've accomplished and know that others may see it too and in your abscenses they will still be there to look at." Though a smile and a chuckle as Meilikki more or less gave the little blue elf an answer that he could just be delighted with. And of course that little bit of 'she's knows when you do things'. "Told you I was a good oracle. Though I seem to either always get marooned or I have to walk a plank..." A little shrug and a look to Meilikki. "Kids."
Oh that got a smile...before a blink and a look over to his mother...she knew when he was doing something bad? Like all the time?n Like when he put things in his pockets that he shouldn't or conned a cookie or played in their room when they weren't in there? Yikes..."I don't do much bad..." At least he hopped. Quick, look cute. Good, now find something to chat about with the grown ups because we want to. Paperwork eh? "Do you go down to the basement for hours on end and lock yourself away to do yours? That's what daddy does." And oddly enough, that sounded like it had been mimicked from an adult. Wonder who...
Keely all to easily assumed the position she was being pushed into and let Meilikki play with her hair. Hm, now that Lharika was around, maybe Keely could stay here for a few days. Yes, that would be a good question to ask indeed. Now just had to wait for the right time.
Isle still sat patiently though blinked as she felt the little elf at her side moving closer and she wrapped an arm around her. The girl had her shy moments that was for sure...though Isle couldn'y figure where she got it from, usually she was in everyone's face.
"Are you feeding it rocks?" Watching what his son was doing and indeed watching the fish swim around under the water. But he reached down and picked the child up, after all, it could be bigger than it looked and could want to jump out of the water and eat one little elf. Though there was opportunity here wasn't there. "You know, if you keep feeding it rocks it will be too heavy to pull in when you go fishing for it."

Arthur watched in silence as the ex-Oracle started to chat back and forth between the D''vinn's and noticed that this had no bearing on him, so there he was sitting there with a small look of boredom as he watched everyone and set when he looked over towards Isle and Lharika and noticed that they were pretty much the sane way. so at that moment a light bulb went off in his head and his face now had a small smile on it as he leaned towards the elves. "Hey do you guys want to go on a tour of sorts? It seems like we are not needed here anyway." Well might as well take them to go look around his home, hell he might even see a few friends of his while out there

Lharika's elven ears twitched and she glanced at the doorway to see another little elf sitting there. Who was he and why was he hiding? Did he live here? Though she piped up on the paperwork comment. "Daddy Kieran gets chained to his desk to do his..."
"No, just playing with him. He's eating the rocks for some silly reason. Silly fish, you shouldn't eat rocks." He squirmed when he was picked up since he really wanted to keep playing with the fish. "Daddy..." Immediately he stopped and blinked. "Fishing for it? Can I do that?" His eyes went wide wiht childlike fascination. "Will you show me?"

Meilikki did her best to include everyone in the conversation, but as it happened that prooved difficult, smiles were the best she could do right now.
"Indeed, the work is important. I would be lost without it."
She She shrugged, not seeing it important that anyone really saw it was she doing these things. "I simply try to bring Honoursfeild the prosperity it has longed for for so long."
A look to the child. "Of course. But then, your mother knows the truth, doesn't she? But no, I do my paper work where people can still reach me."
She blinked, looking over at Taratheil. "Don't just stand in the doorway, young Prince Taratheil. It is rude." She smiled. "Come in and greet our guests."
Deidrick jumped around like a pup at play time. "Come on Rusty, let us take the long way around. Burn some energy, and perhaps you won't be so skittish." He dashed off between the buildings.
Leaf had paused inside the temple, the place was dark and had an odd smell around it. She was uncertain what to expect here, as these temples were old fables at best. She looked over at Fin. "Any idea what we should be expecting?"

Tarathiel walked across the room, and stood near Mielikki before bowing, "Hello." He said in a casual voice. "I am Tarathiel." He shrugged, not knowing what to say, and moved closer to Meilikki.
Fin looked about the anicent and unused halls. "I guess we should find the most sacred part of the Temple. That is usually in the centre on some form of podium, or display." He looked left and right, "I do not see any signs of life, living or undead. I guess it's safe to walk forward." And he did so, right into a pitfall, which he promptly fell down.

"Skittish?!" It was the only thing Rusty could say before almost loosing site of the energetic three headed dog. He gave a kick with his left leg and started running as to catch up with the creature. It was really hard to keep up with such an bouncy creature.
He soon started to breath harder but he kept running. It seemed as if his trick to take landmarks was failing.

Leaf, being elven and quick on her feet, caught Fin's wrist befire he plumeted, problem being he had an impressive momentom going and she had nothing to ancore herself down. So, into the pitfall with him she went. She landed on Fin's stomach, knocking the wind out of both of them.
Recovery found them in...a very dark place. The onyl light cascaded down from the hole they'd come through. "The alter was up there."
Deidrick was only too happy to keep up his pace. "Whata re you?" He taunted. "An animal or a man! Get a little more feline!" He growled. "Use all four legs."
