The third room is mostly empty and has a big wooden chest in it full of her items and toys.

Lira walks over to the message board and stands on her tip-toes to see what was written on it, "gone missing. . . weird. . ." Lira studies the message one more time and then runs down the foggy town to her house which lay quite far from the other houses and quite near the forest, covered in moss and horny plants which Lira watered every day since nothing else grew. Running up the steps Lira disappeared into the narrow door way of her house and after a few minutes ran out again with a watering can and began watering the plants on the roof.

Deep in the darkness of his lair, Bedros sat mulling over a stack of old parchement, their leaves; fragile and coloured with age. He had been in his secret room for the best part of three days now, with nothing but a glass of oddly-coloured water on his desk.
He picked it up now, took a neat little sip, never taking his eyes from the paper he held tenderly in his fingertips.
Word had gotten out about his advisors, he didn't know how the little fools had figured it out, but he supposed it was something that not even he could hide for long. So here he sat, alone in the bowels of darkness, sipping strange water and reading non-stop.
He paused again, leaning back in his chair and taking a little time to rest his eyes. He supposed he would have to find a new advisor, but who?

Nova was wandering around the village until she saw Lira.
Lira was (once again) watering her roof. Did that girl have nothing better to do? Nova rolled her eyes. She could look at her own reflection for hours, She must be the most vain girl in town.
Suddenly she saw the message pinned to the tree. slowly she walked over to the tree and stood on tip-toes to read the message. why did they always have to hang it so high? She sighed and read the message.
"again?" She said softly "we won't have any left soon..." There was a sinister laugh playing on her pretty face as she went to sit by the shrine, stroking the skull ornaments.

Lira stopped watering her roof and jumped down from it, running back into the house through the narrow entrance and emerging out of it again after she got rid of the watering can. Lira turns round and sees Nova, a girl she wasn't very fond of and avoided most of the time since the girl had something against her watering her roof everyday. Lira walks a few steps up to Nova who was sitting next to the shrine and then stopped, not wanting any unnesesary talk.

Nova saw Lira walking by and suddenly stopping. Obviously the girl was jealous about novas good looks beacause she seemed to be avoiding her. "good morning" Nova said to her. "Care to join me? You can comb my hair if you like" and softly she added: "consider youself really lucky." She always carried a pocket-mirror and a strangely ornamented comb with her. It was made out of what seemed to be the same material as the shrine and had the same skull markings on it as well.

Lira nodded and started up walking again, since she had nothing else to do than to join Nova and comb her hair and she wanted to bwcome friends with the girl even though she annoyed her greatly. Walks up to Nova and sits beside her, "okey then". Lira never actually though Nova was beautiful, it was quite the opposite since she thought her hair was more long and pretty but she herself covered a mirror in her house because she hated them and didn't understand how one could stare at them for hours.

"So..." nova said in a soft, somewhat sinister tone. "The fog is great today isn't it? Covering up all.of.the.im.per..fections." She looked at Lira from the corner of her eye while she slowly spat out the words. She played with her nails a bit while Lira was looking at the markings on the comb. She seemed to be comparing them to the markings on the shrine ...
Nova flipped her hair back. "well, what are you waiting for?"

Lira glares at Nova, thinking of the day she'd burst of her kindness and do something bad to the girl, "I'm waiting for you to be quiet, less chat, more work. And anyway combing your hair woun't take much time becasue its. . ." starts combing Nova's hair, not saying the last word of her sentance, bursting with anger as she combs it, wishing to have the power over her kindness and jerk Nova's hair with the comb, still knowing that her hair is much longer and reminded herself that so she wouldn't burst with anger.

Lira started combing Nova's hair.
but she hadn't even stroked it twice when nova stood up and asked to return the comb. "there's too mich light shining here" Nova said, Jerking the comb out of the other girls hand and walking off to sit under the big twisted tree with the note on it.
Nova really enjoyed herself watching Lira restrain herself from attacking her. With a dim smile she layed herself down on the moss, ready for a nap.

Lira begins shaking with anger as she watches Nova lye under the tree after jerking the comb from her unexpectadly, " so you don't want me to brush your hair any more, anyway you need to wash it first. . ." picks up a ball of mud from the ground and swings it at the nearly sleeping Nova, at last her anger took hold.

Nova felt mud splattering to bits right beside her, Splashing over her dress. The NERVE that girl had! Nova was really angry but reminded herself that she hadn't finished toying with the girls head yet.
"You should work on your aim." She said, sitting up against the tree. "and I DO wash my hair... " The sinister smile returned on her young face as she looked at Lira. "You shouldn't lose your temper like that, people might think you're... up to no good... "

Lira shruggs, trying too keep her calmness once more, "Why should I? I still his you and thats good, at least it didn't dirty your pretty little face. . ." Lira thinks of something new to say since she didn't have a quick head like Nova, "You do wash your head? I never noticed. . . what do you was it with? Mud? Slim? Moss?" smiles, "me loosing my head? I never! Just training thats all. . . now don't move" Picks up a new ball of mud from the ground and pretends to take aim on the girl.

"hmm... Very clever... If that's all you can think of .." Nova sneered at the girl. but suddenly she was quiet because the girl picked up some more mud. Would she dare throw it? Nova didn't know what to do at first but then she decided to talk herself out of this. as usual.
She got up and said: "fine, I got it. You're SO jealous of me that you can no longer bare this. that's so weak" and she slowly started walking away with an odd grin on her face. She couldn't help but push lira to her limits. Nova had to amuse herself some way...

Lira clenched her teeth et laughed, "jelous? now really. . . why would I be jelous of your grey eyes and short hair? My eyes are far more fablous than yours and my hair is longer even if its the same colour as yours. . ." begins coming closer to Nova, quite quickly, still aiming, ready to throw it right into Nova's mouth to shut her up for at least once before comeing back to her nicce self.

Bedros sneered, pushing away yet another scroll and reaching up to rub at his temples. A dull ache tapped through his skull and it was beginning to annoy him, now it sounded like there was something going on up in the forest.
Gritting his teeth, he pushed himself up, the chair he had been seated on rocked dangerously, but he stabilised it before the wooden furniture toppled to the ground. "Irritating children, disturbing my work." He huffed, his face twisting into a somewhat strangely grotesque sneer as he left the small underground room.
With long strides he reached what appeared to be a dead end, pausing to scoop his cloak from a jutting rock. He fastened it about his shoulders, and reached up, pulling the hood over his head so that it would shade his eyes from the sun. The fog was not doing a good job at keeping the ghastly light away.
Then he reached forward, pressing a palm against a secret notch in the wall and the rocks shuddered, slowly grinding out of the way to allow him to pass. A spray of light hit him as he began to navigate the passageways, which only grew stronger as he reached the stairs that led up to the entrance of his lair.

Nova saw Bedros coming out of the big gap leading from the lair.
She wondered for a moment what he was doing up here... especially with this light. In a split second she noticed the angry look on his face.
She turned around at lira and sneered at her: "looks like Someone is in trouble" and quickly she ran off.

Lira stared at Nova run off and then at the town leader in fear, still holding the mud ball she flung it at Nova with all her might, hoping to hit her in the back and then fluttered up the nearest tree with her small demonic wings, hoping he didn't notice her in all the mist and fog and sits on a branch.

Oh he noticed them alright, pathetic little creatures thought they could hide from him, did they? He snarled, pale white hair fluttering in his eyes as he glanced first to the child who was running away and then to the one who had flown into the tree.
My, my weren't they lacking in intelligence.
With a flick of his fingers, the sky seemed to suddenly darknen around the town, a heavy oppression in the air weighted upon the trees causing them to fall still.
"Why do you bicker amongst yourselves?" He boomed, his voice loud enough to be heard across the small town.

As the wind blew and the sky darkened Lira could not hold her balance on the branch and fell of, landing at Bedros's feet and scrambled back and stod up near the tree trunk, to climb or fly up it if nessesary and pointed at Nova, "she was mean to me and insulted me and. . . I threw a mud ball at her and missed then. . ." falls silent and gets ready to fly up the tree and escape once more if needed.

Nova felt the ball of mud soaring by and in in her haste she didn't look where she was going so she tripped over a rock.
She looked back, seeing that Lira was telling bedros it was her fault.
Panick flickered inside her as she tried to think up the next step.
She decided running would not fall within Bedros' grace so she tried to be cool as she slowly walked back to the tree.

Lira saw Nova return and guessed that she was thinking of something and decided to quickly hit all the blame on her so that she herself wouldn't get into much trouble. "And then she ran off leaving me here to talk to you and get into trouble. . ." Lira begins thinking of something new to hit on Nova, "and she said that I was up to no good even if she was the one up to no good. . ." doesn't dare look in Bedro's eyes and was stiff and couldn't move her leggs or wings to get away.

The white-haired man scowled, dark eyes flickering with impatience. He was a summoner for crying out loud, not a babysitter!

"I have no time to listen to your childish stories! You may be a child but that doesn't mean you have to act like one." His temper flared.

Then suddenly the magical darkness receded a little, a trickle of grey light falling upon the town. He snarled, took a step back and brought up one hand, spreading it palm upwards as he murmered some words. Suddenly the air above his hand crackled with life and the shape of a creature began to manifest itself from seemingly nowhere at all. Then finally when it was complete, the black crow gave a shriek, perched on it's summoner's hand and glared at the girls with the same cold look.

"Don't disturb me again. This crow here will keep watch of the area." He lowered his voice. "Something is brewing in the light, it wil try to quench the darkness we have created here. Be on your toes."

Lira nodded a few times as Bedro's talked and glared with hatred at the black crow but stopped, afraid to show it to Bedro. Glares at Nova too and nods again, "yes. . . we will be care fuall and be on our. . . erm, toes. . ." shivers and wishes that he would leave and doesn't know what else to say.

When nova got to the tree She just heard Bedros talk about the crow.
What a magnificent creature! She loved the crow instantly and had to have it.

She forgot her fear and bluntly asked the crows name and if she could have it.

Bedros turned his head, eyes narrowed in the direction of Nova. "You do not fear this beast?" He asked with a slight hiss to his tone. Why was he spending time talking to these worthless children? He wished he could just send them away until they had grown and had been blessed. Atleast then they would gain some power in which he could use and manipulate.

"The crow has no name, he is simply crow." He lowered his hand and the bird soared downwards, landing on the ground by Lira's feet and tried to peck at her toes. It sensed that she hated it, and he loved to intice anger and fear just as much as his creator.

Lira jumped back as the crow pecked at her and kicked at it, "get away from me you savage scavenger bird!" she didn't care if it liked Nova and Nova hated her but she wanted to get away from Bedro's crow and him too.

Nova sat by the crow and tried petting it but Lira started kicking at it.
This really ticked her off. "What's your problem??!" She yelled at lira.
an then she calmly said: "He didn't do anything wrong.. you just should've kept your toes away.. the smell must annoy him... " She smiled softly and with that sinister look again and focussed at the crow again as she tried to get it to sit on her arm.
"I'll call you... Acis" . She said to the crow almost lovingly

Lira glares at Nova and thinks of something to answer back but thinks of nothing once again, can't stand the girl any more, even if Bedro and the crow looking She launches herself at Nova ready for a real fight.

Bedros scowled...they dared to fight like animals in front of him?! He took another step forwards his heavy boots thudding on the cold ground as he snapped out his hand, a shimmering barrier appeared between them, as rock solid as if it were real.

Let the girl take her anger out on that.

Then he moved over to the one called Nova. "Child," He said with a harsh whisper. "I wish you to come with me."

Nova glared at Lira and couldn't help but grinning when she thudded against the barrier.
When Bedros told her to go with him, she didn't know what to say at first. The Honor! She admired this man for all of the dark might he had.
"not like I have anything better to do" She spat at lira and she followed Bedros.
