Welcome to Gaia! ::

Las Noches is a massive fortress which can be seen for miles in Hueco Mundo. It consists of a main building with a domed center surrounded by several large towers and smaller buildings. Atop the dome are six smaller towers (or as they appear), which seem to contain areas such as Aizen's throne room and the Espada meeting hall. Like everything else in Hueco Mundo, the main building is colored white.

Las Noches is easily the largest building structure in the Bleach universe, appearing as large as (if not larger than) Seireitei in Soul Society.

The inside of Las Noches' dome simulate the living world and Soul Society's blue sky, its more than likely that the area under the dome is like Urahara's training ground, due to the sky and seemingly endless plains. The position of the halls within the palace can also be adjusted, allowing the one operating them to direct the movements of intruders.

Due to their immense power, the top four Espada are forbidden from releasing their Zanpakutō within Las Noches.

Izumo's slight breathing could be heard from behind his brother. He too enjoyed the peace but knew it would not last. With another yawn and a ruffle of his hair, he looked down at Lostt. "You feel it too eh?"

Izumo laid down and stared up at the midnight sky. With a sigh he closed his eyes, calming himself into his own little world of peace. His mind pondered on several things but the main one that stuck out was why Lostt never refereed to him as his brother. They were both created by Aizen and trained by the "family" and such. So why did he never call him that, or even treat him as such.

Lostt's eyebrow twitched as yet another of the espada walked in to his little area. "Good to see you Muke'aniya." Lostt relaxed once again and his tail twitched into movement until it began to write something in the ground. "T....I....M....E.... H....A....S.... C....O....M....E" Lostt sighed once again and pushed himself up from the inviting sand. "Oh well, guess their is nothing we can do for now. "Izumo, go and see if you can find the Cero espada would you?" Lostt knew he perfered brother but their was something about that word that left a bad taste in his mouth.

Old man looked away somewhat disappointed, but this was expected. He took a step back and looked back at them. "SO I take it you aren't taking sides are you?" Old man wondered what it felt like to be relaxed. It's been a while for his since he caught a break, but hopefully all of his troubles where gone at this point. He was just enjoying this moment and not looking forward or behind him just yet.

Rai thrust his arm out as he walked through the door, pulling Izumo out of his sonido. "There is no need to search for me. I have been here all along." He said, eyeing the rest of the espada that had gathered. "You are correct." He said, seeing the words that had been written into the sand. "The time has come. The time for the new espada to make our presence, but first, a few things need to be accomplished." He said, smiling widely.

"I do not know of what you mean Borracho, and besides now is not the time for taking sides, unity is what we need now." Lostt crossed his arms and rested his weight on his left leg as he looked over at the Cero Espada. "Right Rai Shogoi, Cero Espada." Lostt didn't bother bowing; really the thought never crossed his mind. "So what are these things that we must do before we make ourselves known? I am sure we are all dying to know." Lostt's tail began to flick about at his... strange joke.

Rai smirked at the other espada. "We, don't do anything. All of you will be staying here. We don't want to weaken the defenses of Las Noches, now do we." He said, his voice cold and uncaring. "And it seems, that none of you have any manners. I am the King of Hueco Mundo, and I expect to be treated with the respect that my station has given me. I will not sugar-coat things, you are all my pawns to do with as I see fit. I will let you hold no reservations on that, although, I do commend you on your powers, otherwise, you wouldn't have any use to me. I give you my respect, and I advise you to do the same with me." He added, his eyes narrowing at the espada in front and beside him. He then spun on his heel and walked back through the doors into Las Noches, heading to the throne room.
