Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Well, I think your help was wanted, but Bastet became afraid, and ran." Nelphean looked at his kitten, "She might have been struggling with an enchantment failing, and was seeking your help to correct it." Nelphean was calm, and staring at the cat, wondering how he was going to word everything as to not make matters worse.

"Do you think you could help her if she was in need?"

HE nodded, "To the kitchen." He said calmly, he turned and walked slowly, not trynig to make it look like he was trying to evade the cat. He looked at his cylinder... He wont be able to turn it on... OR will he... The elf walked into the kitchen to see two people he has never meet before.

"Hello, young Miss and master."

She crossed her arms and looked back to Saradin. "Doing what I can to make him comfortable. If this is what he wants..." A small shrug before she turned to him and leaned back against the table on her hands. "Your sleep...perhaps you're having nightmares and just aren't aware of it."

Nelphean shook his head, "I am not who you think I am, but Nelphean nonetheless." He sat at the table, and looked about, he was actually hungry... He looked about the room and at each person...

"I can't cook." He honestly admitted.

She laughed lightly at Nelphean's admission. "Join the club. Most of us can't." An encouraging look to Saradin. "We usually live on your cooking and leftovers. Other than that, its sandwiches and cereal for us." Aura found herself actually feeling better being around her friends, and her break down subsiding for real. Which was odd.

"Dreams, youve got to hit deep sleep to have dreams. Dont think Ive been out long enough." Not quite true, but he was right none the less. "All I know is that I keep waking up with a short gasp and lots of confusion." Taking a seat nearby, he turned it to the side and sat in it thus, using the back to lean against with his shoulder obviously trying to get comfortable enough to sleep even when he was trying to talk to people. "I'll survive, I dont have the will to go insane without sleep."

He followed Nelphean, and eyed the tube like it was candy..coudl he make the yellow light come out? before he saw the collars, settling over them and sniffing them, tracing over the etchings and titlting his head, pupils dialating and becoming narrow, like he was testing how they looked in different light.

"We are unfamiliar with these symbols. what do they mean? is the Eye good? or the funny cross?"

He purred lightly, tail swishing back and forth, and he idly sracthed behind his ears and kept his eyes moving form one collar to teh other.

Nelphean smiled at the kit, "She's got Bastet's eyes." He said softly, and he kissed the kitten on the head. "Somethings change, somethings remain the same. Yesterday, I could ahve kissed those lips, but today, I cannot." Nelphean wasn't treating the woman as a fool, "Do you know what made Bastet human?"

"Any food is good as any other." He really didn't like to eat, all it meant was having his intestines ripped out hurt more, but that wasn't likely to happen. "I remember feeding Rakka for a while." The elf smiled, "But that was long ago."

"Protection, and Life. you choose interesting symbols for us. but the eye is very pretty. and we don't think a bringer of death as us should bear a symbol of life. so we will take the Eye, yes we will."

His eyes twitched at all the talk about food.

"We can cook..we think. have memories of cooking. someone we hunted long ago. not sure if those here woudd like it...foods here are not like the foods we know. like that stuff you call Cheesecake."
