Welcome to Gaia! ::

She raised an eyebrow at them all. The clicked her tongue and turned from them, waving a hand dismissively. "Nelphean, got it." She stopped her walking for a moment and looked to Eclipse who had come in with Serino. "You, watch Serino, Ecara, and those three." A point to the trio of Nelphean influenced friends. Aura then flicked a piece of hair over her shoulder, and adjusted Durandal slightly before walking to the infirmary, stepping into the room she closed the door for privacy's sake. As mentioned lying there were Nelphean and Bastet. She figured that since there were only the two of them lying there and that no deaths or serious injuries had been told to her, that everyone else had faired quite well. She cleared her throat and quietly walked up to the edge of thier beds, standing between the two. Her gaze went to he elf. "Nelphean?"

Eclipse watched her walk off and grabbed Ecara by the tail with his teeth as she tried to follow. "Let's just give mommy a little space, huh? What you think? Don't want her screaming at us too." When she stopped tugging her released her and turned azure eyes up to the trio. A snort. "I apologize for her. This is isn't what she expected to happen while she was gone. Not in the least."

The gem transported him as planned to where the collar's mystical signature was. the place had obviously been torn into, to which the figure only grinned. if what Malik wanted had cut loose and done this, it would be that much a quicker job. he put up his indigo hood to his cloak, and knocked on the manor doors, politely waiting to be allowed in to say his peice to whomever owned what at least was a lovely home.

"Do you hear that knocking?" Kellendel said as he examed the wolf. "Shadow planar... I think... Not much of a specialist. I accidently found Nelphean..."

Nelphean looked at the sword, and then towards Aurahkah's eyes... They seemed, more clear... More beautiful... Nelphean found himself drowning in Aurahkah's eyes... "Others..." He said slowly, forgeting where he was... "Vik, Nailah fine... Ke'Nel cure rest..." His voice sounded deeply distracted, his eyes never left Aurahkah's.

Nelphean eyed Aurahkah, and stepped closer to her, slowly closing the space until he was at arms reach. Each of his hands griped Aurahkah's wrists and he spread her arms apart. He stepped closer, and his nose brused up against hers. "I don't know.. what... is..." He kissed her.

Kellendel looked at the other two planar creatures, one obviously from the shadow plane, the other was a horse. That could mean anything. He examined the beast, but his attention kept wondering towards the little girl. "How old are you, child?" The elf enquired. He knelt down beside the girl and looking into her multi-coloured eyes, "You seem too..." He attention suddenly was drawn to the library, where a great aura was emitting from behind the doors... too strong to be any of Nelphean's cantrips... he was exaughsted and couldn't... Kellendel stood and ran towards the door, but Xail and Rain intercepted him, and he could not explain.

Aura stood stunned for a moment, before she yanked, but found Nelphean holding her wrists. A shadow walk found her her freedom and she reappeared from the move a few feet behind Nelphean, hand over her mouth and shocked expression on her face. "Nelphean! What do you think you are doing?!" Now she glared at him.

Ecara was having a fine time, loving the attention she was receiving, much like her father often did. A giggle and fanged smile was given every now and then. Then her ears dropped in confused fashion as her giver of attention abandoned her, and then got even more confused as his friends seemed to be against him. Realizing where he had been heading she instantly got worried. "Mommy?" A step forward only to be stopped by the hoof on her cloak. She turned to the wind horse, tugging on her cloak. "Serino, up!"

Eclipse eyed him. It seemed like a rather odd request of anyone...or the existance of the manor and it's inhabitants was more wide spread these days. Backing off he gave the man a nod. "She's preoccupoed right now, but yes, do come in."

He stepped inside, taking a look around with little interest save for when he saw the massive claw marks that only something as big as Cymarron in it's..other self...could create. "My thanks. I don't like to be a burden, but if you coudl please let her know I'm here I would appreciate it greatly. It's a pressing matter to my employer."

Cymarron, in his den, was presently being choked and released, in order to keep him right where he was, lest he catch the faint scent of Malik around his servant and react harshly.

Kellendel shrugged, and guess that the elf had contaminated himself, as the evil aura was still where it was... almost... Kellendel turned towards Aurahkah... "Say, could I have that for a moment?" He pointed at the sword.

Nelphean walked to the doors, he felt very calm. The sensation was gone, but what the hell was that... WHy did he attack Aurahkah so fiendishly... He looked at his hands, and felt his pulse... His heart raced... He looked at the doors... Suddenly, they seemed very... thin, very... The elf fell over and went to sleep.

They seemed so casual about it. And that had her guards up in an instant. A look to Eclipse and she spoke to him privately, via mind link to avoid the others.

A nod from the wolf, who then promptly shadow walked through the wall into the library. He sniffed at Nelphean who was lying on the floor, apparently in sleep. Eclipse snorted at him, then sat down near him, playing guard dog to the elf. Good thing the shadow born wolf didn't need sleep.

Outside the room, Aurahkah righted her posture, the hand she had around Durandal's hilt tightening as her sai occupied hand reached back and replaced the gold weapon. A look from the wrapped sword to Kellendel. "No." If she didn't know it's extent there was no way she was going to hand it over to anyone else. "There's more important things to focus on..." Of course she meant Nelphean.

Ecara stopped her struggling as her nose picked up something new. Scanning the room she saw someone she hadn't before. One ear dropped back. "Serino."

Serino raised his hoof, allowing her some movement but followed after the girl as she took tentative steps towards this man. He had been asked to watch his friend's daughter, so he was.
