having taken time off from her usual searching Skye had somehow found herself in the second tallest area of the castle gazing out on the city. Sighing she remembers her many visits to all the places of the city and how someday soon this would all end. Having found the person from her quest she would soon be heading home to rule her Queendom and upon arrival she would be a queen. However unprepared she was.
Slumping on the railing overlooking the city she feels a chill and realises that someone else had just walked into the room. "Hello, Who's behind me?"

Hrist had been doing as her Empress had commanded. Scout the castle and city proper for any magical incantations of protection. They would be necessary bit of information should anything of the original plan not come to fruition. Her Empress had far too many contingency plans, and this Castle wouldn’t fall easily regardless. So many spells protected the castle alone that it would take far too long and too many lives to try from the magical direction. She supposed Chelay or Tirana may be having more luck on their end, and that would be a relief. They hadn’t been here too long. Arriving late placed her Empress at a severe disadvantage in vying for the Princess of this Kingdom’s hand.
Her current objective was to get a better view of any outlying magic’s that couldn’t be seen from close proximity. The tallest tower seemed to be sealed from her entrance so she would merely have to attempt it from the second… her present location. The climb had been horrid though and she thought that perhaps she would be getting a bit too old for this many stairs.
A burst of fresh air hit her as she cleared the final flight of stairs and onto the small balcony. As she did she immediately noticed she wasn’t alone. Apparently the spot was as good for viewing as she had hoped and attracted more visitors. Or perhaps fate had lead her to this one. She did have the view of one of high stature… princess or queen level at least. Perhaps her Empress would like to meet the girl. Another pawn that fell to the girl, and She still couldn’t see what lured people to the Empress, but… she sought and sought it. “A servant of one of the visitors to the Castle,” Hrist said in her normal tone which gave off warmth with every word… or so she had been told.

turning she smiles. "Ahh a servant then. Well care to share a view with me? I'm afraid it may be the last time I get to look upon this land so I wish to take it in as much as I can." sighing again with an odd mix of regret and happiness she gazed out as far as she could. "I'm afraid I may be married sooner then I would have expected and so I would dearly like to enjoy one night of true freedom. So who do you work for?"

Hmm all the information she needed had been laid bare before her. She kept up with the gossip going round the servants and maids. Her empress desired up to date goings on in the castle and chamber maids were always VERY open with many things. Gossip being one such thing. No secret remain so long should you apply the proper force were any needed at all. So the girl was the Australasian Princess and going home soon. It was fine then her Empress could gather no use from a country so far away... or not yet anyways if the girl was anything like what Hrist suspected. Should her ambition and ability match up then… perhaps
“Thank You My lady.” The girl’s view was very nice after all she could see So much and the magic in her eyes picked up so many layers of spells it was almost blinding. She had to turn that ability off lest it distract her form the task at hand. “Might I ask why this would be your last time to take in the beauty of these surroundings?”

"My quest is nearing completion and if everything goes according to plan I shall be married within the month and then I shall be heading back home once more to rule my Queendom alongside my new wife. Eris." sighing as she said the girls name she could still remember the strange way they had first met with her trying to mug her. "And once I become queen I will need to take care of my Queendom and won't be allowed to travel freely anymore."
sighing again she decides its no use hiding her wings or tail anymore. After all what would the point of it be. Her friends here already knew of them and soon she would be back home where everybodies peculiarities were clearly shown.

“Quite quickly you’ve accomplished this mission then.” She didn’t know much about the rest of things, but the words were that the girl had found a commoner to marry. Quite a boost in social status this was to be for her then. One not found too often actually and as far as she had heard VERY rarely to such a prominent position. “She must be quite something to have attracted you eye My lady. Might I einquire about the meeting… for reference of course.”
Hrists own wings flapped slightly behind her and she smiled at the girl. Perhaps she could gain some insight into this rarity… always seeking knowledge and this was such a great opportunity to see into how love can bloom in the strangest of ways. She had brushed the last question off of her employer. She wouldn’t want to reveal too much of herself just yet and should the need not arise she would like to avoid mentioning the Empress if at all possible. However she knew some people were quite inquisitive as she was herself.

"Yes indeed very quickly. Faster then I had originally anticipated at any rate. As for the meeting it may sound strange but originally she was trying to rob me then I threatened her by pulling out my claymore and holding it close to her wrist should she move it then she would have lost it. Next thing I know we were having dinner in a romantic resturant and now we're getting married. It all seemed rather fast but I am happy about it."
"Plus it will keep my parents happy as I satisfied everything on my list." tossing the list to her now that everything was done she no longer needed it. "I love your wing's by the way they are quite beautiful. I think mine are a bit ridiculous to tell the truth."

Hmm a tale to go down in some fairy tale… if told from the others perspective. She believed they were moving too fast, but Hrist had never fallen in love before. One reason she found the topic so… desirable. However, the need to fall in love had never been there she never sought the feeling out. Though she had heard you could fall quickly and hard. “An interesting tale,” she said folding the list back and leaving it at her fingertips. Should the girl leave it there it would be quite the object for delivery to her Empress.
“Thank you My Lady, but all being are different and beauty comes in all forms. Your wings have merely a differing kind.” She said the smile never leaving her face. “You mentioned a night of true freedom,a nd by what do you mean? A night in the skies above the castle a night with friends? Will your freedom be snatched from you when you are married?”
OOC: Hrist is the middle one ^.~ by the way,.

"No, I mean a night of true freedom by that of one last night as a princess before I acsend the throne and become a queen, The problem is I am not even sure how to be a queen yet so I was planning on just doing some flying. A past-time that really soothes my nerves and thinking about what it is to be a queen. You're welcome to join me if you wish and you can keep the list its useless now."

When the girl mentioned a night of true freedom before being married it brought up thoughts of her master. The woman was an individual with… certain tastes, and Hrist had the idea but for a few brief second on whether she should bring her to the woman. Of course the continuance of the speech made her change the course of her thoughts. “Flying on a clear night with a full moon. Shouldn’t you do such a romantic thing with your future lover?” Hrist asked sticking to one of the topics. The others could come in time.
An interesting point was that the girl had seen her keeping the list handy. Very good eyes this one had. Bad to lose one such as her. The empress would love having a useful tool, and as Hrist’s gaze moved down then back up the girl’s body she decided for her empress such a tool would be versatile. Cowing a future queen would be more difficult, but the woman was always up for the thrill she was sure. The question remained though… should she become a tool now or let it sit in its box until the right time?

"Eris? I don't think she can fly. I have never seen her take out wings or anything and besides I just need time away from her. Its almost grown to tradition standards where I am from to have a night away from your Fiancee before you marry to prove trust or something like that." sighing as she looks out onto the horizon again. "I just wish I did have something fun or entertaining to do."

Hrist laughed at the strange tradition. So they were to prove their trust to not do anything by having a night out and away from their fiancée. Well she had been told her country had strange customs as well so she would have to take them all in stride. “Then perhaps after you are married you could take her for a flight. Perhaps carry her…” She said and trailed off taking a look at the others wings.
They didn’t look all that sturdy, of course most wings weren’t it was the magic that helped them fly and the wings took up the rest. She would have to say the ratio was around 50/50. “Unless you aren’t able to carry her I suppose.”

sighing she gazes out at the distance. "Unfortunately that is the case. I may be quite a strong flyer when in the air and I am very strong whilst on land but I can't multi-task carrying with flying." sighing again she looks over at Hrist. "So would you care to join me on the flight? And after that I was also wondering if you would be able to help me find something else to do."

She… couldn’t multi task that? Well Hrist supposed that the girl could come from a kingdom that didn’t do much aerial combat… though if they could fly it would have been a very good advantage in war. Her empress had used the tactic quit well in taking over the current empire. “You could perhaps carry her somewhere high up then. To… gaze at the surrounding from more your point of view. The empress loves to see the world from above. I’m sure most being who cannot fly by their own power share the sentiment.”
The smile was still on her face, but it faltered. “You are aware that such words could be… misconstrued yes?” Ohh Nil she was starting to think too much like her empress. She needed to stay away from the girl more. It was always the same with the girl conquest and women. Sometimes the two went hand in hand as she had come to find out.

nodding she stares out at the horizon again. "I suppose I could do that. I wish I had more power though like my mothers. They can fly and carry two ton's of whatever at the same time."
sighing in admiration for her parents she turns back to Hrist with a wry smile on her face. "Also I do know that the words can be misconstrued as you said but even still I am sure whatever we end up doing shall be fun." grinning again with an innocent look in her eyes she walks and stands with her back against the railing, Then quite suddenly she lays backwards falling off the tower.
Laughing she flies back up to where the railing was and looking at Hrist she waves her arm for her to join in the fun. "Come on I'll race you."
