Aura filled her glass again, bur refrained from draining it for a moment. A smile to Saradin. Part of her wanted to ask if he was alright, he seemed...off, but earlier that morning she had told her that she would agree with him and just 'let it go'. "Charmer...and no I haven't been talking to myself." She poked the book. "I was talking to the book." Like that was any better, really? "Doing? Reading and drinking."
"Well if your friend is here then you can come in. Mommy won't mind." Ah the logic of a child. She then abruptly pointed in the direction of the courtyard. "That goes outside. Don't worry, Cymarron won't bite." She giggled once, refraining from her own habit of the action. "Maybe you know mommy and daddy then. I have my daddy's ears and his wings too." Spinning around she showed off the little black wings.

Elias made his wy back out of the kitchen, he could help but see Cymarron there, his nose buried in a book trying to desperately to find its hidden answers. He smiled as he walked over to them, his hands in the pockets if his black slacks, his tie swinging to the rythm of his movements. His large broad fedora as always leaned forward and the side. He stopped next to Cymarron, and was about to say something when he noticed, something else entirely out of the corner of his eye, he had seen her only a few times in his stay here in the manor but knew who she was immediately. "Lady Pheuare it is truly and honor to have you back in this hallls." he said with a deep bow, he had no diea if could recognize him as he stared at her a lopsided grin on his face, and looked at her through his one complete white eye and the other the yellow of a serpent.

It hit Pheaura then...the wings. Such a contrast to her own. "Eclipse..." she ais in a small breath that managed to esacpe her mouth. "And Aura." Pheaura nodded to the girl. "Thank you very much for your help. My name is Pheaura." She held out her hand to the girl.

Tyler made a face. "Sissy stuff." he said referring to the flowers. He decided that this woman was okay since she had a friend here, even though he was...dead. He wandered back to where Mr. Nelly and Mr. Cynammon were and saw Mr. Cynammon immersed in a book. Sitting down beside him he said "What'cha readin' Mr. Cynammon?"
Niah watched Bastet head out her window and sighed. Never could do things the way normal people did. "Do we not use doors?" She watched her disappear into the trees and decided she might as well follow the same path. After all if she went through the door she might not be able to find her again. Sighing deeply she made her way after Bastet.

"We do bite, just not without a good reason.."
He muttered, one ear moving to the direction Ecara's voice came from, acting much like a radar dish to pick up what was being said so that it could be actually registered later. Finally, 5 series in a row correct. but not six. more growls and snarls that if anyone was present that spoke Vah, would know was a string of cursewords. Then he looked over to Tyler.
"Lady nailah gave us this to memorize. the Alphabet is what it is called. we are getting better at remembering the symbols, but we still make mistakes. after we memorize this, she said she would start to teach us to read."

Bastet walked for a little while, until they were far away from the Manor. Would not hurt her, but did not want interference. Her ears twitched and she moved them around at the sigh and turned to face Nailah as they stood in a clearing. "Did you use a door last time you left? You did sneak off after all. What is wrong Nailah? You wanted this conversation to be taken elsewhere."

She nodded to Pheaura. "Yes, mommy and daddy." She shook the offered hand. "Nice to meet you Pheaura." A giggle, then a grab at her jaw and lowered ears for a moment. Ecara then looked up at Elias. "Hello Elias." A brief hug to his leg before Ecara went about her own entertainment. Namely bothering Tyler and Cymarron. "Still shouldn't bite. Mommy will yell." She leaned against the arm of a chair. "I know the alphabet. I know two of them."

Tyler nodded and said "Cara's smart. She can read and knows two." Then he smiled. "I know the alphabet. Mommy taught me and she taught me a song for it too. A-B-C-D-E-F-G-H-I-J-K-Elmno....elmno....I always mess it up..." he stomped his foot on the ground and sighed. Then he looked at the other man. Mr. Lyus. He remembered this one mentioned when people were talking about Mommy. ANd he had seen him around that girl earlier.
Niah moved into the clearing and said "I simply know you wanted to speak about me leaving. And yes I did use the door. I left you a note...apparentely that wasn't enough..."

"So, what were you reading then?" The book found itself scooped up from the floor and careful lain across the table in front of Saradin as he retook his seat. It openned by his unsteady hand, and he took one look at the scripture before looking to Aurah. "Something old Id say. Must be prettty important for you to be upset at it. As for drinking, why the wine?"

Elias could help but laugh as the young Ecara gave his leg a hug. "It is funny how aimable that young one can be when she does not Esmeralda around to bug her." he laughed as he turned his face towards the Sir Cymarron. "Sir Cymarron, you whould give yourself a rest, you won't be much help to anyone if you're exhausted from so much studying. The answers will come in time, and the Lady Naliah will be just as impressed, you don't need to worry about that, I mean you do spend a very long time with her." Elias smiled, what was it with him? Here he was standing in front of competition and he was being nice, then again Sir Cymarron was a noble man, and if he lost Naliah, to her, god forbid, then at least it was to him.

Pheaura nodded her thanks. "Thank you." She took a few more steps into the familiar entrance. It was weired being just a guest here. She felt unnerved as she headed to the kitchen. She was determined and just kept putting one foot in front of the other. She enterned the kitchen with her head down. Her eyes suddenly seemed very interested in the floor as she headed to the door.

She looked at Tyler and giggled. "It's L-M-N-O." She pronounced it very clearly so that he could hear them all. Yes, that part of the song was confusing...people shouldn't of said it so fast in the first place.
Aura took a drink from her glass which was stopped at Saradin's questioning of the beverage. Oh right, he didn't remember that part. "I'm an avid wine drinker. That is when coffee doesn't have a hold on me." She strolled over to the table, looking over Saradin's shoulder, just as immersed in the book as he was. "Very old, and it's the book containing the two spells I used to bond Eclipse and bring about Ecara. She's been acting odd, I thought maybe it would help me out. But like all other parenting books," she paused and took a drink, "no help."

His hearing focused in on when Tyler recited the alphabet.
"Do that again? show us the symbol that matches the sound?"
adn glanced at Ecara with a smirk.
"You can read and write in two tongues. we can speak in twelve, just not write or read any of them."

Tyler tilted his head and said slowly "L-M-N-O....yeah that sounds right...but what's next?" He thought for a minute and sighed. "I don't like this song." He looked at Mr. Lyus and walked over. "I haven't met you yet. I'm Tyler and I know you're Mr. Lyus. I've heard of you. You like my mommy." he sized the man up through his five year old eyes. Wasn't really sure how he felt about him though.

"The only way to raise a child," Saradin said while shutting the book tight, "is to take care of it the way you know best. All I can say is that shes going to learn from all the love and affection that you grant her. Ecara's fine." He traveled to a cabinet himself and withdrew a wine glass that he set on the table beside his chair. "If you want to drink, then lets make it mean something. A toast to Ecara's love and health, may they last for her for as long as her mother has lived."
