Tomo stepped inside and looked around, eyes wide. It was quite impressive, really. He stepped up to the offered chair and sat down. "Oh! I'd love a cup of tea." He said, looking around a bit, "Things are well for me, but how about you? War must be difficult."

Louis walked out of the room to get the tea. Ukiel looked at his watch again and then looked back at Tomo, "Yes, it certainly is. We just got out of a fight in a city called Rosfires. Got a really bad wound on my chest, so my friends tell me. I say is a beauty mark. I'll heal it soon. I'm tired." he saw Loius come in with a tray of tea and small butter cookies that he served Tomo and Ukiel and left. "The bloody Elders want me to attack the demons, but I was planning on talking to them, but they won't listen to me." he drank his tea.

Tomo nodded and took a cup of tea, "I also heard you are fighting with dragon riders." He said, sipping at his cup. "I have a dragon ally, Thorn. We've become very close over the past year. Perhaps he could start swaying dragons away from their riders. I think it's terrible that such beatiful creatures have to be forced into war."

"Those things hurt my Lady. She's still recovering from a really bad wound. Poor thing. She blames my beauty for her wound," he chuckled as he placed the cup down, "I was telling you of the demons. They say they would only hear to the owner of the lands there. You know who they think it's the Lord of that land?" he pointed at Tomo, "If we don't convince them to stop attacking we'll lose men for nothing and Ghost will have an opportunity to find what she wants. We have to convince them that we're allies."

Tomo nodded, "I will speak with Thorn as soon as I get a chance." He said with a polite bow. Never had he thought he would be talking war with a man like this. Or talking war at all, for that matter. "Why does everyone think I'm this imposing being? Do you know what it is about me that draws this whole thing to me?" He asked. The question was burning in his mind since he ever met Ukiel. Why him?

Ukiel's face went straight as a way of explaining came to him, "The Inn is in the middle of an area filled with war since my time, and that's a long time, Uehara. In your Inn live the strongest warriors around, Kai, Aitrus, Jadonima, Kaen, and etcetera. The demons and angels think that these warriors act to your command. Even the Elders think that. Many of my papers say that you control that area, like a King of some sort. Thus the word Lord next to your name. You have acquired respect and certain level that the leaders of the demons only want to address." he sighed, "I don't know what else to say." he smiled.

Tomo blinked and scratched his head, taking it all in. "Wow..." Was all he said at first. "Well, at least it makes sense, now." He murmured, taking another sip of tea. "Lord, eh? Hmm... So, I guess all I have to do is make sure the Muffin is well protected." He paused, "That reminds me... It seems the Muffin is changing somehow. Like... Like it's almost alive, somehow... I can't explain it more than that." He smiled, "But I know it's protecting us."

"Maybe it's a seal. When I talked to the prophets from gazillion years ago they told me they put seals to protect their houses, like a guardian. Let's see how I explain....like Asphiel being Kai's angel soul. He was also a guardian." From the door came in a giant like angel with a blue armor and huge wings, though the same size as Ukiel's (Uki has really large wings). He gave a book to Ukiel that grabbed it in seconds, "MY novel!! I've been waiting for it all day! Oh," he jumped down from his desk, "Lord Uehara, this is Castro, my co-second in command of my forces." Castro stopped him from talking and whispered something in Ukiel's ear in angelic. Ukiel's face changed from happy to surprised and looked at Tomo, "Something has happened. Can we cut our discussion short? Come visit at anytime, just open the chest, alright? Uhm, gate...." Castro stretched his arm and a gate opened to the Inn, "Take care." he didn't stay long as he ran out his door. Castro bowed in reverance.

Tomo nodded, stood, and bowed politely. "It was a pleasure to speak with you." He said with a smile. "Thank you." He said, setting his empty cup on a tray before walking back through the portal to the Muffin.

Ukiel walked inside from the portal and to the desk which had a map of the area of the Inn and with small figures representing the groups, towns, etc. He sat in his tall leather seat and waited for Tomo. He used his powers to make the bed and clean the feathers coming from the bathroom since he forgot to do so earlier.

Tomo stepped into the portal after Ukiel and glanced around. The place was always so impressive. "What did you need to talk about?" He asked, finding a chair to sit in. It was always hard to get comfortable in fancy places for him. Wasn't anyone's fault, really.

"You need to talk to the demons. We can't keep stopping them on their tracks. I've lost a squadron last time as we held them back. They'll only listen to you. They send me the rules we only need yo to say you would," he placed a gold figure on the desk, a small golden chest. "We can't keep pushing it back."

Tomo eyed the figure as he crossed his legs, trying to look more relaxed than he felt. "All I have to do is talk to them?" He asked, looking up at Ukiel. "Are they willing to negotiate something? Because this war is really starting to get annoying."

"How you think I feel," he got up and walked around, "They'll listen, but it'll be in their camp and said that we couldn't meddle with 'their chores' so they'll probably going to tempt you to stop them from killing something. I need you to talk and not react to whatever they'll do." he kept glaring at the chest.

Tomo tapped his chin as he thought. "That sounds pretty dangerous. Will I have backup?" He asked, ears perked strait up as he listened. He wanted to get every detail he could manage.
