Still upset at the men around her, she decided to keep standing, while everyone was sitting. Deciding to occupy herself, she opened the foof cupboard, and took out a banana/ She ripped it, and made a loud sound as the peel dropped in the trash container.
She began to chomp at the innocent banana, as if it were some one's head....

Aura rolled her eyes. "You think?" With another shake of her head she took at seat at the table with both Circi and Vincent. She tapped her fingers again then stopped them and covered the one hand with the other to keep from repeating the action. "So...I heard your brother...is with Niah..."

Another Chomp.
I am so New here!....
Chomp
Who is this Niah? And who is this man, who seems to be Lady Aura's... Man?
Ugh, why'd she have to be a man lover anyway!? Men are just problems... all they are, are a bunch a hot air wrapped in skin! She began to think of her brothers, Gint and Fayther... Problems.... Quickly she chomped those thoughts away in the innocent banana.

"Thats what I heard but I doub't I know much more about you" Once again he looed back over his sholder" I think il see you later sweetcakes, I think I make your friend uncomfortable" he turned around with a smile" You look like your really enjoying that banana" Before she could respond he was gone, disipearing into a cloud of mist.

She mushed the banana around in her mouth for a few seconds after he departed.
WHY AM I SO MEAN TO MEN?
She swallowed her last bite.
Oh yeah... They're air heads! She sighed and sat down at the table, across from Lady Aura. Feeling no regret for the way she had acted, but still showed a little resent for not responding as he left.
Maybe it's a good thing... nothing good ever comes out of that large black hole of mine!

"That man is so fickle at times. No matter...he needs to play babysitter to his brother anyway." She said the statement more to herself than to Circi or anyone else for that matter. Aura watched Circi for a moment and almost laughed. Well the girl seemed to have an obvious dislike to the twins. But then again they had that reputation of being a bother...at least Alexander did more so. "Men..."

Finally!
"Yes, I agree!" She breathed out in a growl more than a sigh.
"I don't understand... What is this place, and how many people live here?"
How many men to kill? She thought as she got up to get an apple this time.

Aura raised an eyebrow at the girl's fervent reply to her statement. She decided not to touch that subject, it seemed rather sensitive. "There's nothing to really understand Circi. This is just a home that was set out a good distance so as not to be bothered." She paused for a moment and thought the number out. " And maybe roughly around twenty of us are here."

Hmmm only twenty... so at most there are 18 men...
"Oh. I guess, I thought of something like a folk tale... whatever. It's not like I'm staying here for long..." She looked down to the ground, and took a pitiful bite out of her apple.
"He's been missing for so long..." She whispered under her breath, unknowing that it was easy to hear in that quiet room.
Another pitiful bite...

She knew better than to push subjects that shouldn't be pushed. She had learned that the hard way quite a few times. "No... no folk tale of the sorts or anything. This place is what it is. Though some of the people here would probably contradict me upon that." Pushing herself up from the table, she made her way over to the bar and poured herself a glass of wine. "Well Circi, regardless to how long you are styaing...make yourself comfortable and right at home. Now if you'll excuse me I have some planning to attend to and some sleep to catch up on." She gave her one final nod and a smile before walking out the kitchen and down the halls to her room.
((I'm out for the night.))

Circi nodded back, and sat in the kitchen for a while. She slowly nawed at her apple, and threw away the core. She opned the food, cupboard once again, and pulled out a juicy pear. She slowly munched on it, as she sat at the kitchen table.
Baldar... Where are you?
She got up from her seat, and walked down the halls. Walking aimlessly about the manor. Still eating her pear.

Saradin whittled away the previous day and night doing something that he had feared and longed to do for quite some time now, he read. The tiny book he brought home with him was Uhsinakar's journal, and most valued gift he had left with the world. Under its soft-bound, age treated cover was sealed a bit of him. A few kind words written in his old habitually haphazard style
to calm the mind and heal the soul of any who happened to peruse its contents. For Saradin, it was chapters.
I'm glad you decided to read this at last. I did somewhat expect this though, you to still be holding onto your horrors so tightly. But you've come a long way if you are taking the time to read my journal. I remember the days when you couldn't read, and the handful lessons I'd managed to get you to go through. I guess you've changed from the time you thought it to be a waste... like such a large child. That made you laugh didnt it? Another thing you've found yourself able to do, you have my congratulations. You are still walking around with so much grief, and you dont want to give it up I know, but so many others already have absolved you, including your victims.
To answer your question, yes, I did know that my actions would get me killed you know I was smart enough for that. You're always the pragmatist, Saradin. But I couldn't let that change my goals, or my ideals. And I didn't live expecting to die either, instead live for the time we are in, taking things as they come.
One thing I never would have believed is just how long you'd live, and always sticking to your decisions. I admired that in you, your conviction to things even if they were destroying you, thats real willpower. Yes, I know you think the same of me, but I'm no saint despite what Idalla has painted me to be since, and dont you start in on me either. I was just doing what I could when, where, and how it was needed.
You've done a lot of the same, so cant we consider you a saint as well? Dont deny it, its all in the desire not just the attitude and accomplishments, and yours is a bit rusty but still pure minded. See what I mean? Awkward to be called a saint, isnt it? Heh, I mean, I even married a demon. Thank you for accepting her by the way, it means a lot to her that my friends see her the same way I do.
For hours Saradin sat in a quiet corner of the great hall, reading and smiling as he passed through the final twenty pages of Uhsinakar's diary only to flip back to start of those pages again and read the new text that had filled the space. It was like actually talking to him again, hearing his kind voice and feeling his gentle demeanor in the air around you. One thing was always certain, every page gave the answer to some long asked question and the solution to a long suffered problem, if only he'd the will to truly listen.

Circi finally made it back to her room just in time. She finally took her last bit of her pear. Sher walked into her room, forgetting to close the door and threw the core away. She kicked off her boots, and sat on her bed. She raked her fingers threw her hair, which had been raked so much, most of the strands in her bun have fallen out.
Gint, Faythen, Pillther, Baldar.... She laid on her bed, forgetting all her hard core discipline, her cold anger for men. She let the tears fall out, she let them fall out of her eyes.
"Where are you Baldar... Where am I?" She quetly cried her sorrows away, all through the night. When she slept her dreams were filled with the joyfilled memories of her child hood, and of her Brothers, who were different from men... they were hers...
One dream was quite dark, and cold. Rain fell down on two figures. One was tall, with dark raven hair, and sea green eyes. HIs shoulders were broad, his face was stern but filled with laugh lines. The other was a slender woman, with dirty blonde hair, and sea green eyes. The rain poured on them both, drentching them.
"Baldar!" She screamed. And ran towards her brother. He did not open his arms, nor achknowledge that she was coming.
"Baldar?" She whishpered. His eyes were blank, lifeless, dull. His body limp, resting against a tree. The rain increased, flooding on them both. The air smelled different, almost like an ocean was near by. Circi tasted the rain, they were tears. She shook Baldar, his limp body went with her motions.
"Baldar you Idiot! Come Back! Don't leave me! Baldar!"
Circi awoke in her bed, her pillow soaked from tears. Her head ached and her stomach grumbled, but in her heart her dream still lingered.
Was that a dream, Or a nightmare?
She got up, her mind wandering, as she put on her boots, and walked to the kitchen to get some breakfast.

Azure eyes peered over the side of the red silk sheeted bed, watching the sleeping body that lay there through the red veil draperies that hung from the top frame of the four poster bed frame. So peaceful she slept...which was a bit odd. He assumed she had slept with Vincent, so he stayed away from the night. Seemed in truth that she had slept alone...at least her mind refrained from torturing her. She usually didn't sleep alone. He gave a snort, rustling the veils around slightly, and then fluffed his wings. "Aurahkah."
Aura merely remained motionless, her breathing slow and steady. She was rather quite comfortable and lost in her wonderful dreams of more wonderful times than she had actually experienced. She then rolled over and hugged one of her pillows to herself, mumbling almost incoherently into the feather stuffing of it.
He laughed and stood, shaking out his fur and feathers. Readying himself he gave a leap and landed harshly on the bed, making the body there bounce with the motion then straddled his beloved thief and began licking at her face. "Come on sleepy. You need to wake up."
She groaned and sat up, wiping at her face with the sleeves of her nightdress. "Eclispe...what time is up." She looked around and happened to catch a glimpse out of her window. Well at least it wasn't noon yet. Pushing the creature from her she stood and took to getting ready. She put on a pale teal halter style dress that left her back exposed, also revealing the tattoo wings that ran the length of her back. She also pulled her hair back today, putting it in a braid...she wasn't in the mood to deal with her unruly hair today. Yawning and giving a stretch she turned from the mirror in her room and strolled out into the hallway.
Eclipse followed behind, prancing around rather happily. It was funny, he could literally feel the happy radiating off of his Aurahkah. The ebony winged wolf trotted around her a few times, a blue blur streaking through the halls and skidding on marble floor. "Hurry up you slow thing you!"
Aura walked as slow and as lazily as she wanted to. No he wasn't going to rush he the traitor. He didn't come to bed the night before, so she had right to be upset. She was cold last night.
Eclipse whipped around to face her and stopped, his tail wagging when she stopped mid great hall to pet the creature. "Sorry about not coming to bed. I thought you were with Vincent."
"Haven't I taught you that it's bad to assume things?"
