Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Follow close." Tony instructed as he places his hand on the tunnel wall. He closes his eyes and uses small seismic vibrations from their footsteps lead them through the tunnel. "Well, if I'm correct we're in the west wing of my tunnel system down here; meaning that when we reach the end we'll come out right by lake located deep in a thick forest. Faraway from this slave market and very difficult for the guards to track us through the thick woods."Tony explained as he guides his hand along the dirt wall of the tunnel.

"Yeah it's a long walk. I would fly us with wind but then I wouldn't be able to see where I'm going. I haven't quite mastered using both of my abilities simultaneously yet; it's a process." Tony explained as he continues to guide her through the cave. He hadn't even thought about the time of day or planning ahead to make a camp. Normally he would continue on or just sleep in the trees since the cold air of the night was relaxing to him. Having Fortula around really helps remember what it's like to be around someone that he can trust.

"Element Guardian? Hmm, I like the sound of that, Element Guardian." Tony repeated over and over again until he felt he was starting to sound like a broken record player. "So these Legends, how old are they? Like are we talking before the dawn of time old, or like grandparents old?" Tony asked trying to think of something to keep the conversation going.

When Tony heard Fortula say she was 91 years old, he instantly thought of an old picture of his grandparents and found it very hard to believe. She is still young and beautiful, and to say she is 91 is clearly stating that she is too old for him.
"Stories of my ancestors? That would be interesting to hear, I never really knew how I came into my powers. They just sort of appeared." Tony said trying to get his mind off of their age difference. "My dad told me that they might have came from my mother's side of the family, but I didn't know my mother at all."

"Uh...No your age doesn't bother me...!" Tony jumped as her question caught him off guard. Tony was always use to being the oldest in the group of friends he had, but from each of his mistress to masters he's been treated more of a child than ever; so he finds it a bit awkward to hang around people that's older then him. It's no offense to Fortula, she's actually the first person he's been with that wasn't trying to be dominant over him, and he didn't want to lose that confort.
"...It's just...Oh nevermind, it's a bit silly and...childish." Tony sighed as the words left his lips.

"It's just I've been alone for so long I don't how to act around you." Tony began but then realizes what he's said and quickly tries to correct himself. "I mean alone as in acting solo, you know? Being on my own for so long that I have nearly forgotten what it's like to be around other people. It's not that I like you or anything..." Tony paused with his face turning bright red. Luckily the tunnel was too dark for Fortula to see his embarrassment.
"...You see what I mean? I feel like a kid all over again." Tony sighed again as he calms down.

"You really do got it all don't you? Elven warrior who's father's a priest and who's mother's goddess; it's not wonder the slave trade abducted you. You're all around awesome." Tony smiled brightly as he let's out a bit of a laugh, and then a curious thought crossed his mind. "So what's my soul's judgement?"
