"I know answers!" Draven Essence Eternity shouted joyfully as she zoned back into the conversation. She skipped up to Maurycy. "My eyes are my essence like a window to the soul!" The familiar saying showed that she had either learned how to read and had read it before, or she truly had seen other people before the tower had disappeared. "The tower left because no more remained, the tower returned because dark has regained!" She started to dance and sing her new found song around the tower, once again becoming oblivious to those around her. "Stolen power, now returned. Tis a matter of choice whether the power is relearned~"

Emeriss became a bit suspicious at Aura's little song, but only enough to shift her eyes to glance over. Well, it explains something if she knew why the tower vanished though being a part of the tower would probably make such reasoning apparent. She stood up again, this time lifting the sword she came with and starting to approach the entrance of the tower. "I think I'm going to go eat."

"Like I said, you ask alot of questions." Nelo tilted his head a bit. "Most, unnecessary. You need to learn what is important to the current situation, and filter out whats not." He sighed, and hung his head, just standing there while Aura danced around the room, singing. "Living on the streets of the city for so long tought me that..." As soon as food was mentioned though, Nelo's head snapped up, and he grinned widely, his fangs glistnening. His red eyes flashed, and he said, "Well, I am a bit parched..."

Draven Essence Eternity saw Nelo's fangs immediately and stopped her dancing, the words stopped as if her song had never existed. Though in all reality what she had sung was the truth. Though it was impossible to know how she knew. She began to cower a bit back from her friend, backtracking till she had near the stairs that had carried her down to all the new people. She looked alarmed but didn't make a sound as she turned and ran but up the steps as fast as her little legs could carry her. She had seen many things when those fangs protruded. Her mind could not grasp what they meant and it frightened her.

Emeriss didn't have to look back to recognize what had just occurred behind her. She could literally feel the bloodlust coming from Sumnor. Thinking on it for a second, Aura's pronunciation was a bit less confusing. Emeriss glanced back toward Nelo then up toward Aura at the stairs. Hmm... The soulless aren't necessarily the fearless after all. "Well, okay but I think this dinner date is going to get awkward." She replied before facing the door and pushing it open.

"Darkness..." Maurycy went silent for a moment to think about it. Darkness was something he had no definition of, all he knew of darkness was the existence of shadows, and that others seemed to see a darkness in him. "...Do you know all the answers? Is my soul even there beyond that window?" He had doubts at times that he had a soul. He had curiosity, but emotion was something he seemed to lack.

Nelo quickly forgot about blood at the mentioning of darkness in the soul. "Well, thats really your choice, but there are two ways to tell for sure. The first takes a while, but is painless. The oter well..." He smiled and laughed a bit. "Well... lats just say otion two has sent more than a few to the loony cell down in the King's dungeon."

Emeriss sighed and looked back from the door toward Maurycy, "I could fish through you to help you find it, if that's what you would like? I didn't sense one when you walked in though." Sorta why I have to go out for a meal now... "Anyway, I'll be back before sunrise." Emeriss turned and waved as she stepped out the door to the night fallen landscape outside, calling in through the door, "Does anyone want me to bring something back while I'm out?"

"Some steak, enough for all of us, and as fresh as you can find it." Nelo pulled twenty silver pieces from his pocket and handed them to Emeriss. "Buy it at the Karayan Co. Butcher Shop on Main street. Ask for a man named Aldon. Tell them you were sent by Sumnor, and he will set you up. I can grill the meat if you can fetch it."

Aura went to the top of the tower where her room was, it wasn't full of many things, but she did have a few toys that she had crafted out of things she had found around the tower before. She picked up a doll she had crafted out of a sheet, straw, and string. It wasn't a very pretty doll, but that doll made her feel safe as she hugged it to herself. Her friends were somewhat scary she realized, not that she wanted any of them to leave. She closed her eyes and tried to remember what she had seen when she looked at the one with fangs. Holding the doll to herself she entered a type of trance as she delved into the past. She saw a man who also had fangs, she saw him, though she didn't know who he was. She didn't understand all the pictures, but she enjoyed watching them.

"...I'm not getting older. I've been walking a few days, I guess it's probably time to eat. All that business about souls, if that even matters... I'll worry about that later." Maurycy said, and stepped out of the front door. He leaned against the tower outside and opened his torn umbrella, spinning it around and waiting for Emeriss to hopefully return with food.

Having been gone for a few hours, Emeriss returned wearing more casual attire, at least casual for her tastes. She had a belt scabbard for her new weapon and a stack of paper wrapped objects held together with a crossed rope to tie them together. Seeing Maurycy at the door, Emeriss waved gently to him as she smiled and called out, "Hey, Mr. Questions, if you could provide an answer, pray tell what your name is?" She continued to approach until she had reached the doorstep.

"Well... according to a piece of paper it's Maurycy." He said, with a tinge of doubt in his voice. "That seems like such a strange question to me though. To think of a name on a piece of paper, as if that word somehow sums someone up." His only knowledge of the meaning of a name was the piece of paper in his pocket with 'Your name is Maurycy.' Written on it. The only clue he had.

Emeriss noded, "I'm Emeriss. Well Maurycy, don't think of a name as a sum, call it a label. Something to be identified with rather than a total identity." She reached up to gently pinch his cheek and smile before stepping through the doorway and into the tower. Once inside, Emeriss held up the stack of wrapped steak cuts and approached to pass Sumnor. "I brought the steaks like you asked. Your butcher gave me some odd looks but I don't think late hour visits were uncommon to him."

"Ah, thank you." Nelo nodded and took the meat, and smiled at Emeriss, almost like she had just told a joke. "Yes, he does get alot of after-hour visits, due to the fact that he was once my father." He turned his head to the stairs where Aura had fled. He stepped up about four steps so that most of his torso was enveloped in darkness. His voice became soft, and he said, "Oh, Aura? Would you happen to know where a kitchen would be?" The sound was carried all the way up to the top of the tower, where it reached Aura's ears.
