Blackwort saunterd in. today his clothes despite being shabby and worn were actually.....clean. His hair still was a mess and his boots scuffed badly. On his back rode his massive two handed sword, Headbiter. He bellied up to the bar, whistling a tuneless song and poured out three pints of lager ( they did not have his favorite in the city, Sourbelly's Special Reserve, he had aquired a taste for lager.) and sat down. The first he downed right off the bat, the golden liquid dripping off his chin. He finished it setting the pint mug on the counter wiping his chin with the back of hid sleeve and belching rather loudly. " Pardon me." he said |

:: Kit looked up as if indignant but she knew Leti would know if she was lieing and she looked down into her wine glass and said very softly::
Lucas....Rinald.....of Teylin....
:: Kit kept her eyes down like a child waiting to be scolded. Leti would not be pleased:: |

:: he was in mid drink as she told him the news and suddenly the drink was spewed half way across the room...he turned to look at her in shock :: You killed Reginald Rinald, Duke of Teylin's, son?! Have you gone mad? That man makes me look like a fuzzy little bunny playing in a flower garden, he's quite possibly the most blood thirsty madman alive today and that's saying alot in this day and age....why would you go and do something so suicidal? I mean I could have just decapitated you and got it over with! :: he slams his fist down on the bar glaring at her :: |

:: Kit winced as he yelled, very few things made Kit wince. She looked down unable to look into his eyes which she was certain were glowing blood red with fury. She jumped slightly when he banged his fist on the bar and glanced at the crack he made in the polished wood::
I didnt know it was him until he was dead! i had never met the Duke nor his son!
:: She placed a ring on the bartop. Her ivory pale cheeks were now slightly flushed, she was infact incredibly aware of how childish she looked as she timidly peeked through the fiery strands of hair to look up at him and she was infact incredibly ashamed by it. Loyalty hopped down onto the barcounter inbetween Leti and Kit and looked up at him. The blue pearl like gem on loyaltys forhead glowed softly::
< Here...>
:: By touching the Gem Leti would see what Loyalty saw that night. They had been at a tavern, and the Dukes son had had many rounds of drink and had the intention of forcing himself on a woman, unfortunately he choose Kit as his prey that night and was killed in his attempt. Not until the man was dead did Kit notice the ring bearing the seal of Teylin. She took the ring and fled::

:: he sighed and got up leaving after her :: Kit! Couldn't you have just broken a limb!? I mean really he doesn't even like his son that much and he would have thought it served him right....an arm or leg maybe a nose, do you always have to kill them? Now I have to bail you out again and I don't think I can take on 7 legions of hard nose troops....:: he grabbed her arm and spun her around :: why didn't you just tell me? |

:: Kit pulled away defiantly::

:: She looked back to Leti:: Which of the Guardians contacted you? |

Let's just say a little birdy told me you were in need of bailing out :: he steps in close to her :: and for 130 years old you think you would use more control than just laying peoples intestines on the ground in some dark alley, you enjoy killing too much anymore... |

Isamu sat down and continued to sip her hot tea, and was not giving eye contact with the hug fight they were having in the tavern.~ |

:: Kit crossed her arms and said softly::
of course, Astifa...
:: Both Jyuubee and Nozomi were now sleeping and in their dreams they would find each other, and a white winged cat perched upon a rock beneath the only tree in sight waiting for them. They were in a vast meadow with soft wind rustling through the long grass and the leaves of the tree. Nozomi would recognize this as the beast form of the Loyalty's brother Astifa, Guardian of Air, Wind and Dreams. The cat spread its white wings in a greeting. The sun shining bright above them made the guardians feathers shimmer with colors.
As they got closer Astifa would take on his true form, The young man wearing only pants and and the long flowing belt. His snow white hair was pulled back and he smiled and nodded to Nozomi recognizing her and then to Jyuubee, to let him know they should not be afraid. He welcomed them to join him near the tree and pulled his silver flute to his lips and began to play a beautiful song for them:: |

(Recently MSN Groups wouldnt allow us to reply to the post so Isamu's mun and I rped through e-mail)
Isamu's post:
Isamu watched them and didn't know when to say or do so she kept quiet and waited for when she might need her assistance.
The children in their joined dream looked to the cat figure that was perched on a tree. They noticed him as they got closer Jyuubee took his protective stance in front of Nozomi. As they got closer the cat turned into a man. *Who are you and why did you being us here?* He asked him as Nozomi giggled and ran out from the side and Hugged Astifa. "Hello Astifa nice to see you again." She giggled and looked at her brother, "He is Lady Loyalty's brother.
My Post:
:: Astifa smiled and hugged Nozomi::
Hello Nozomi...
:: His voice was very soft and very gentle, His white eyes looked to Jyuubee::
Pleased to meet you Jyuubee...
:: He ushered them both to sit and set the silver flute on his lap::
Sadora tells me, you've been having nightmares...
Isamu’s Post:
Nozomi smiled at him and saw Jyuubee smile at him, "Nice too meet you. And yes we have, but what is it too you...? and who told you this?" He spoke a little defensive.
My Post:
A soft wind flowed through the air, causing Astifa’s very long snow white hair to flow around him. Nozomi would notice glistening feathers within the strands.
Sadora …I believe she is also called “Loyalty�? My eldest sister informed me, during my visit. It is my purpose to know of dreams, and to make sure there is a balance. It is her purpose to watch over women and children. You may not be of our realm but you are pups none the less. She tells me, there is an imbalance in your dreams.
:: Astifa sat in a casual way to assure Jyuubee he could also relax, and picked up the silver flute engraved with beautiful symbols, He twirled it playfully in his fingertips, as he did it made a faint musical sound. The guardian appeared to be in his early 20s much like Kit did, but there was an ancient feel to him, his youthful face appeared concerned by Jyuubee’s suspicion::
Isamu’s Post:
Nozomi looked at them both and shivered from the wind, it wasn't cold but Jyuubee just gave a cold stare that meant he was still up on his defense. "I see, your dreams aren't yours only visions....nightmares of past and present...I doubt you be much help. Nozomi looked at him, "Jyuubee give him a chance to cure what plaques our minds...What could it hurt?"
Jyuubee glared at him then looked at her and his glare seemed to soften around the edges but still held some coldness in his voice, "What gives him a reason to care about us? He doesn't even know us enough to love us to want to help! We are cursed gods what more do you think can be done?!" He growled, making his sister turn and bury her tear filled face in Astifa's stomach, crying softly. "Stop it Jyuubee, I am done with seeing death, blood...all those horrible thoughts."
Jyuubee only stood there, "He can't erase your past as gods."
My Post:
::Astfia stroked Nozomi’s hair gently and looked to Jyuubee still with his kind expression::
This is true. I do not know you, and I cannot erase your past, this is not my purpose. My purpose is to keep balance, and watch over the dreams of those I am charged to protect. Sadora is in charge of caring for her majesty, Kitiana. During this she has met you children and has watched over you as well as Kitiana yes? She has asked me to help you. If you wish not to accept it, then I can do nothing.
:: He lifted Nozomi’s chin and wiped the tears from her cheeks and gently turned her to her brother::
Your visions of the past have a purpose. Your dreams are symbols of what takes place in your existence. They are visions that will aid you along your journey. If you wish to face them on your own without my help. You must confront what provokes the dream. You must listen for the message that is being given to you.
:: Astifa’s hand disappeared from Nozomi’s hand and his body shifted back into the white cat with shimmering wings. The feline spread its wings and took off into the sky flying deep up into the blinding sun. Once he was out of site the children woke to find themselves once more in the Inn::

Jyuubee was about to pit anger at him but saw him leave. Nozomi cried for him to turn but in a flash they both sat up, Nozomi was the onely one crying, Jyuubee looked straight ahead angered. Then Jyuubee left his sister, and went down stairs. "Mommy...Nozomi is crying." He looked to Loyalty and then down with saddness in his eyes.~ |

Isamu got up and placed her cup down and ran up stairs to her crying child. Jyuubee only stood by the stairs no moving or looking up. Isamu went into the room and picked up and kised her cheek. Nozomi cried asking for Astifa. Isamu never heard that name and went down stairs the child still crying. "Kit...OR Loyatly who is Astifa?" She spoke worried yet defense on who this man was and why nozomi cryign might be his fault.~ |

| Jecht stirred from his sleep and his eyes opened to see Isamu gone and felt some new beings had arrived. He then stretched his arms abit and took off his bandana and readjusted then tying it back to his head, to keep his light brown hair out of his eyes. He then headed downstairs to see what was going on since he heard voices downstairs. He then saw Isamu and wondered what was wrong since she seemed defensive. |

Isamu looked at Jyuubee then back to Kit, "Why?" She looked confused. But she looked down to Jyuubee, as she rubbed Nozomi's back. "Honey who is Astifa?" Jyuubee didn't look her in the eyes. "Some man, Lady Kit and Loyalty know..." he shispered. Isamu looked up at them, "So who is he?" |
