"Well, there was no harm in what you saw my dear elf. I am fine today, though I am supposed to be training, so technically that is what I was doing." She carried the book as she plopped onto a table near him, her tail swishing curiously and her ears perked up in her happy state. With that inquisitive smile she looked back to him, "So if you find it somewhat useless, then why use it? Other than the whole expand your skills reason I mean. And how are you today, Nelphean?"

K'erith slowly wandered up and down the halls of the old manor,
"I wonder what this place is." he thought to himself, he had simply woken up, as he usually did, in a place entirely new to him. He had a talent for appearing somewere at the wrong time,
"I wonder what trouble I can stir up here." he snickered as he found himself facing a large, open room with a fireplace and a few tall, comfortable looking chairs. He noticed the large oak door near the end of the room "That must be the entrance, no harm taking a look outside." he glided over to the large portal, not stopping to open the door, he knew he could just go straight through. His face instantly smacked hard into the wooden door,
"Odd," he whispered, "first time that has happened." he tried again, this time at a quicker pace. BAM! The door had the same effect. "Cant get out? he wondered, he grabbed for the doorknob this time and quickly jumped back with a yelp, it was almost like the place didnt want him to leave, he shrugged off the thought and headed down the hallway again.
"Might as well find out who lives here..."

Tyler looked at Cymarron and smiled "Hi Mr. Cynammon. Why can't I see these things?"
Nailah looked at Cymarron. "Things we shouldn't speak of around the child?" She wondered what had happened but didn't want to scare Tyler. She decided to let it go. She nodded to Turik. "I'd love some thanks." She looked at Aura for a moment who was staring brokenly at her sais. Her sais were also broken. Niah was going to say something but she decided it would be better if she left it alone. She pulled Tyler's mac and cheese out and put it on a plate. Then she handed it to Tyler. "It's hot" she admonished gently.
Tyler picked up the fork and shoved some in his mouth. "Ouch!" He pulled it out quickly and blew on it.

"Tea, Cymmaron?" he asked, then shook his head in embarrased laughter, "you dont drink tea, do you?" he handed a cup to Nailah and poured her some tea from the kettle. Llew's mischevous head popped out of his rucksack and bounded over towards Tyler, barking playfully.

"Me, I am as fine as I could be with my sleeping patterns recovered... More than four hours a day... I can't stand it..." Nelphean laughed in his melodic voice, and his eyes fell into Bastet's.
"I am learning it for a different foe, one with scales and wings great as a house. It causes more than fire damage, and can be altered to only cause sonic or force..." Nelphean shruged, "My your eyes are bright..." His eyes closed slightly, and his grin grew bigger.
"As long as I am not fooled by what I see, I shall be able to over come most of the evils down their. I have fought many of them before once or twice, but never on this level in these numbers..."
"I see that you have learned to control some of your magics..."

Nailah accepted the tea gratefully and blew on it. She took a sip and sighed with pleasure. "I haven't had tea in ages."
Tyler looked at Llew and said "I gotta eat first then I can play." He started to eat happily.

She shook her head, "More than four hours a day? How cruel, I do not expect you to stand it." She of course enjoyed sleep to a point and always enjoyed listening to his voice. "It seems that you are as knowledgeable about magic as ever, and I am guessing you know how to alter it? Or plan to learn?" He knew things she did not and implied things she guessed at.
"But I am sure you have evolved since those times when you have fought them, and you do not have to fight alone." She strived to make sure he knew that.
With a slightly annoyed twitch of her tail she nodded, "Yes of course since my emotions are linked ot my magic, I have to concentrate on how I feel to use them. Levitating is easier, however barriers I am having trouble with."

"I could have guessed as much, your spellcasting is sometimes reffered to as sorcery, and not 'real' magic." Nelphean's hands motined in the air in an arrogent fashion, "When push comes to shove, and the sorceress is just as powerful."
"How are you feeling now?"
"Come sit with me and enjoy our time together."

Cymarron grinned lightly at Turik.
"Cymarron drinks tea, but only one kind of tea, it is used to help Cymarron see into the spirit realm."
His gaze moved to Tyler.
"Do you remember when Cymarron told you he had another shape? one that you would not want to meet? the rest of the pack met it. it was not pleasent, but it was needed so that other would be prepared."
He tore free a piece of meat and ate, guzzling down more eggnog while watching Tyler and Nailah for a moment..before speaking to Turik in celtic.
"you read much, you are seeking something, yes? perhaps Cymarron can assist?"

She smiled and moved to sit very close beside him and leaned against him some, "I always enjoy our time together. I am a little tired from magic and forcing the emotions, but fine overall."
"Why is it seen as not 'real' magic? It is because of the emotions? Hm, I say that could make it jsut as strong if not better in some ways so the sorceress can be just as powerful."

Nailah watched as Tyler finished his macaroni and cheese. She listened to Cymarron and wondered what form he had shown. It couldn't have been good. She waited a few minutes but didn't understand what else he had said.
Tyler looked at Niah. "I'm done Miss Niah." He carefully picked up his plate and brought it to her. Then he leaned down and pet Llew.
Niah took took his plate and washed it in the sink. She finished and looked at Tyler. "Come on sweetheart. You need a bath."
Tyler wrinkled his nose. "But I took one already."
Niah looked at him "Oh really when?"
Tyler thought for a minute. "A few days ago?"
"Not good enough little guy. Come one." She picked Tyler up and nodded to the others. "I will see you later guys." She walked out of the kitchen teh squirming boy finally settling in her arms.
((and im just not feeling it tonight..sorry guys...))

"You are limited by your inexperience with incantations and spellcrafting. Using your emotions is quite draining as you have discovered, and very much..." The elf's eyes light up for a moment. "You said emotions. I have a chalice that can manipulate emotions. A gift, someone thought I might want it but they were wrong. I use it on my self when I am depressed, but I guess I could give it to you to amplify your emotional state with less of a drain on your soul. You can make yourself feel whatever emotion you desire, and that feeling would be as potient as the liquid inside. It is fun to get drunk and amplify the happiness... I wish I could remember where that cup was..." Nelphean gazed into the corner of the room, and returned his eyes to Bastet. "My friend Mr. Grumbles is holding on to it for me. But I don't know where he is..."
"Oh, and yes, Sorceresses can be just as powerful as a mage in some respects, but they have a sever limit on the number of spells they can learn. Taping emotions has its limits. It takes you longer to adopt new spells, whereas I can just read them from a book, memorize them, and chant them out later."
His arm wraped around Bastet, and Nelphean swayed the pair slightly and gently. "What is your favorite flower?"

She leaned and swayed with him, turning her body more towards his and hugging him lightly. "I was far more limited before than I am now. And if I could change that then I am sure I can learn and change some more." She laughed a light laugh, "Pesky emotions that are now needed. That chalice would be very useful, but I do not want you to lack it when you are depressed even though you do not have it now. Hopefully though, I can help you feel better. And do you always remember all of these spells forever? That would be very hard to do."
She had to think the most on his last question because it had never occured to her before. Even for the time she spends outside. "Lilac would be my favorite I guess, I like the scent and color of it."

"Interesting", Nelphean smiled, Now to find out what this lilac is... "So, sweet, Bastet, have you ever thought of enchanting your daggers or sword?" Nelphean turned his head into Bastet's embrace, and returned the affection.
"Sorry, not much to say right now... What is your favorite color, and food, and weather?"

She had to laugh at him. Then thought, was it hard to make conversation with her? Hm. "Just say whatever comes to your mind, you can be random sometimes. But I like learning these random things about you. Such as Mr. Grumbles..." With that she raised an eyebrow at him with a questioning look.
"Purple or red, I eat fish often but will eat many different things, and I do not think I care about the weather because when I climb trees the rain or sun does not bother me much unless I reach the top or it is a bad tree... Care toa nswer the same questions?"
