Enaid rises stretches one trim slender leg outwards as soft tinkling of bells resound about as the bare foot is placed upon the ground...within seconds the rest of her body emerges from the trunk of the great oak tree...a gentle shake of mass of tumbling hair as fairy bright eyes look about the seemingly empty forest

[Alucinor ] Shortly after Enaid emerges from inside of the tree, another figure can be seen hanging upside-down from said tree with his legs wrapped around a low branch, swinging slightly as if he has always been there. He looks very much like he has been for days now, all trussed up in woodsman's gear with leathery browns and forest greens, his dark curly hair waving in the air below him. A deep voice calls to the flowery woman nearby, "Good day, fair Enaid." He smiles at her.

Enaid takes a deep breath of the fresh crisp air of the morning dew....a slight shiver running through her from the frost glistening upon the brough catching the weak sun trying to warm everything up her head turns as she hears her name upon warming lips...a smile fleetering upon her own as eyes rest upon the appearance of the male...a soft sudden laughter " Why...good morning to you Al...you know you hang like one of those darken creatures of the night....Bats...yes..have you seen them?"

Alucinor chuckles, nodding in his upside down manner and folding his arms across his chest as he swings there. "I have indeed. They are quite wonderful creatures, really ... horribly misunderstood."

Enaid nods as she steps closer to him...the soft ringing of the blue bells playing merrily as one ankle lifts and is replaced upon the ground nodding and accompaning this action a fresh wave of blossom fragrance lifting and drifting upon the air lingering but seconds before dispersing slowly.." I believe the humans hold it strongly that they are akin to the race known as vampires yet it is only one species that actually live upon blood of another"

Alucinor waits and patiently watches Enaid from his inverted perch ... just silently studying her. After all, when you don't have your own agenda whatsoever, it's easiest just to follow along with someone else's. And besides, he expects hers to be quite enchanting ... especially if it's anything like the last dance they shared. The fondness of such memory still shines clear in his eyes. As the conversation continues, he nods. "A very unfortunate misconception most humans seem to have, yes. And it's not all that hard, really. Vampires in bat form tend to be much larger and more vicious looking. Even vampire bats don't look all that frightening." He shrugs, a gesture which looks downright ridiculous given his top-is-bottom view of the world.

Enaid small hands rest lightly upon her hips as she stops in front of Al...." Are you trying to establish yourself as such a being..perhaps practising for some part" a soft chuckle " What do genies do...?"

Alucinor chuckles, a deep sort of rumbling sound, as he hoists himself upright, grabbing hold of the branch and letting his legs slide free ... revolving and falling back to the earth to land defly on his feet, legs flexing slightly. "Hardly would I ever wish to be a vampire, my dear! Indeed, if one things about it, vampires and genies are quite the opposite." He dusts himself off, arms and pants, before looking back to her with a smirk. "Perhaps you can guess why?"

Enaid can not help but laugh as she hears his words....." I was referring to you perhaps wanting to be a bat for some reason..." the soft laughter coming to an end..." why do you not tell me ?" glancing about a slight frown upon her brow.." the forest seems almost empty tis a shame no one comes to such places in winter for even then they possess magnifiencent beauty" her head turning back to look at him" Do you not think so?"

Alucinor strokes his braided chin thoughtfully. "If I did indeed wish to be a bat, I certainly could," he considers. "And indeed, it is a shame that so few come to see this place as it is in snowfall. But perhaps it is because humans do not find comfort in such cold." He looks to Enaid now, considering. "Are you cold? Would you like to have something a bit warmer ot wear than just flowers?" He avoids the vampire question for now ... far too much else to think upon.

Enaid blinks somewhat surprised at the question of warmth....a softness of a smile upon violet lips " Even the harshes of seasons would not cause me harm naw Al I am not cold though this season keeps the buds from showing Mother nature can be fickle sometimes do you not find?" her head turnig the mass of hair fanning a little sending wonderous fragrances into the air..

Alucinor blinks as if waking from a dream, entranced by her fragrant presence. "I am glad to hear you are comfortable all around the year," he says, relieved. "It does make a certain sense, actually. Fickle as mother nature be, she takes care of her own quite nicely. Seasons will pass, and buds will show through soon enough." He gives Enaid a cheery smile, the corners of his mouth wrinkling in delight. My but he's a happy creature at times! For now, though, he returns to his earlier riddle and the thought which has seemed to amuse him greatly. "Now I would like to see if you can guess how vampires are different than genies ... how they are directly opposite." There is a twinkle in his eye, speaking to the fact that he must certainly like such games.

Enaid nods and even whilst doing so her hand reaches out to stroke the bark of the tree Al had so recently been swinging in...around them both the eart was gently being moved...pushed aside the new shoots underneath beginning their fight to grow..letting her hand drop gently to her side as she takes another light step to another tree her hand reaching out to let slender fingers stroke barely over its surface...." There could be many reasons why a vampire is opposite to a genie...but tell me are we talking of preficily of yourself or all genies?".

Alucinor watches Enaid going from tree to tree, wondering if her ministrations to each is done from duty or desire. As the growing greens spring up, making their way up through the snowfall, he smiles. "I was referring to both genies and vampires in the most general sense. After all, you asked me what genies do ... and I'm sure you know what vampires do." He follows along in her vitalizing wake, admiring the sights of the woods around him.

Enaid turns to rest fairy light eyes upon his frame....her fingertips carressing the young tree's bark....like one would do a friend rejoicing in the meeting..." Both do what they can or have to to survive for one it is living upon another for the other it is to serve another....yet none can survive without doing such a task"

Alucinor beams happily, nodding in agreement. "Where vampires live by taking from others, genies live by giving." His riddle answered, he smiles and moves to her side, eyes running up the entire length of the tree which she now caresses and gazes upon, from bottom roots to the uppermost tip lost high up in the canopy. "Now that you know of a genie's life ... I must confess to my curiosity about your own. What do ... fey creatures do, really?" He chuckles. "I mean, I've heard tell of all the human legends, but I've never put much belief in them. Somehow I find it hard to believe that one's sole purpose in life is dancing naked through the trees and tempting mortal men with exotic promises." He rolls his eyes and shakes his head.

Enaid raise a delicate eyebrow at his somewhat description of her supposed life..." Do mortals really look upon the fae as such .....frilivous creatures what sort of things are we supposed to tempt mortal males with surely only disatified creatures could or would be tempted by such things?" violet lips curve upwards as she finishes speaking her voice as always soft as a breeze ...light as a leaf drifting to the ground

Alucinor gives Enaid a look that says 'oh brother' in reply. "Indeed, that is what most seem to think. But as few mortals ever have the chance of seeing such a mysterious creature, why not come up with whatever story you wish?" He shrugs, seeming to be rather displeased by such human ways. "Though now that I myself have seen a fey of the woods, I can understand ... if all fey are as lovely as yourself, I can see where they could be tempted to believe such things." His eyes rest gently upon her now, conveying the belief behind his words. Enaid is indeed blessed with the best of nature's beauty, a flower in human form.

Enaid lifts her head to look into his eyes as she listens to his words yet even so she seemed not far from a tree or plant....fingers idlealy tracing over its form..the first shoots to start fighting pushing the the hard earth aside now barely showing the pale bright green of their stems upon the ground..the first showing of their presence. Eyes looking deep into his her voice lowering into the softness of petals..." Do you truely wish me to lie to you...upon my word I will never lie nor do I know any that do...but you ask me a simple question and perhaps I should answer it....look around you Alucinor what do you see?"

Njoka steps past each tree as if he had done it a million times before. WAlking a path he has taken countless times, only to stand near the tree he always does, in slight hopes that he would not be noticed because of what he is... Though, in fact, he is always in search of somthing, thus, he waits, not joining the two he feels in the area, only keeping an ear out.

Alucinor is caught, held enraptured for a breathless moment by the joint gaze which is shared, a lovely smile springing from his lips even as growing things spring from the ground underfoot. "And I see no reason to speak falsehoods to you either. After all, the bond between us can be used to force me to speak the truth, if ever there were suspicion to my words." He shrugs, not seeming to happy about that fact, yet he continues. "But I thank you for your honesty." At her prompting, he looks around him and describes what he sees. "I see snow ... and trees. And earth moist from the thaw. And green things growing all around." He tilts his head, listening. "I can hear birds returning from their winter migration. And squirrels chattering." He grins at the simple immensity of it all.

Enaid brow's arch in puzzlement as she looks about her gaze torn from the male before her...a strangeness caught upon the air telling her of another's presence yet thus far unseen by her. a gentle smile as her attention once more returns to her companion.." Is that all you see Alucinor....look again...open your eyes and gaze about unto the world"

Njoka begins to think to himself, he once also uttered such nonsense, though that was indeed forever ago.... Now, the words just seem sicking, false, not in truth at what he see's, but more of a capturing moment of.... Love... His nose began to bleed, and thus he threw such thoughts from his mind, now he would focus on other things, still, not going to jump into a conversasion that he hardly has any right to listen to.... He would stay calm, letting his silver hair drop down in front of his eyes, that now seemed to be closed.

[Lillia ] a hole in the clouds opens up over the heads of the people inside the forest. A beam of light shoots down to the floor, making no sound or movement of matter, the the light disappeares, revealing the one true Gaurdian of Euteria. Lillia, she looks around and spots Njoka, a friend of hers, she approaches him. "Hello again my friend" droplets of sweat trickle down her fragile face features as she looks at him. It appeared to anyone who looked at her that she had just come from a long grueling battle.

Alucinor is also puzzled, his age-old intellect struggling to see what perhaps he might be missing. He looks around again, carefully poring over the intricate details he sees. "I see ... nature ... beauty ... life." He looks to her again, hoping that this time he's got it right.

[Njoka ] "I am not your friend..." He was hiddin no longer, those who did not know where he was before could easily pick out his position... His voice was Harsh, nothing to be suprised about, its always been that way, though calm, deep inside held such a powerful evil waiting to come out at any moment, the feeling that would make any being shiver... "....Your kind are hardly the type I wish to be friends with, you, may be lucky enough to not have me as a foe, yet, though I would not push your luck..."

[Lillia ] "trust me Njoka. I have pushed my luck on more than one occasion, and I am not afraid of you" She pauses, a slight misconcern in her voice. She turns around to introduce herself to the other two located in the forest "I'll see you around!"

Njoka grunts a little, as if just snuffing her off, an his voice was again a cold whisper ""You should be..."

[Lillia ] turns around and looks at him coldly. "Well, believe me. I have faced worse than you Njoka

Enaid smiles now violet lips curving into a wondrous smile....tranferring its magic to her eyes as they seem to sparkle and dance across each pupil...nodding and as always accmpanying such an action the air is filled with fresh blooming fragrance.." You are closer....nature is here in all its wonder and joy even whilst laying dormaint there is still life...everywhere there is baeuty even in the simplist of things...when I gaze about I see friends..livies waiting to begin anew...it is hard to explain to another" head lifting as she catches sight and sound from the couple at a distance

Njoka turns his head, this time not speaking to her, in his mind, he doubts that, but he does know that there are few in this realm who can match and even utterly beat him in a battle, though it would be hard pressed to find that person, *REAVER!* Anyways.... He stands still, letting her move away.

[Lillia ] she walks towards the other two. "I couldn't help but over hearing your conversation. And I was wondering if I may make a suggestion?"

Alucinor indeed hears the voices of the others in his attentiveness, though neither is recalled with any kind of remembrance. His attention quickly turns back to Enaid, obviously pleased with himself. At her words, he looks around him once more, feet slowly turning as he takes in everything with a newfound wonder ... glancing to the green shoots springing up from the ground below almost as one would look in wonder at a newborn child. "You know," he says in a whisper, "I'd never really thought of it that way." A look of awe marks his face even as a newcome approaches, his eyes rising to meet her, though he remains silent, concent to let Enaid do the talking though eager to hear what she has to say.

Dante_Sparda wanders into the forest in a red vest, black T-shirt, and black pants. His short platinum hair hangs down slightly covering his black eyes. A large sword with a dragon as the hilt is strapped to his back, and he has a pair of high-powered Desert Eagle .50 cal hand gusn that rest in hip holsters. He glances around the forest, then walks along a path.

Enaid eyes look pass Lillia to linger upon the male she had newly left....shifting to look back upon the newly approaching female as she nods...." Please...do"

Njoka smiles to himself, Though why he would not tell... He lept up into the tree, moving from branch to branch, staying quiet, as if he were only a small wind passing by... Though he stops closer to the few who are talking... He sat still on the branch, now leaning against the tree from 20 feet off the ground. He closes his eyes once more to listen, moreso to hear what Lillia might offer... Words of wisdom, hardly, no guardian could see past their own facemask, let alone view what was truely in front of them, though, Njoka's thoughts alone.

Dante_Sparda feels a distinct aura, and decides to walk over. He emerges from the brush behind Lillia, then looks at Enaid and Alucinor. He tilts his head as he walks up to the group. "Hello."

[Lillia ] turns around "Oh Dante hello!"

Dante_Sparda smiles. "I thought that was you Lillia." Glances to the others. "And who are these people?"

Enaid continues to look upon Lillia awaiting her suggestion...a nod to the newly arrived male cousing an array of fragrances to drift upwards..and over those here

Alucinor sees another figure approach, giving each a smile and nod in greeting as they come, though remaining silent. He appears to be very much the woodsman at the moment, not much different from what appears in his profile.

[Alucinor ] "I am Alucinor, and this is Enaid," he tells the others briefly after so prompted. "Dante and Lillia, is it then?" He grins cheerfully, broad and muscular arms tucked behind his back for the moment as he looks between the pair.

[Lillia ] "I see life as a sense of renwal, people, animals and other types of life die, they become something else. That would be the spirit energy of the planet. Do you get what I am talking about" She looks at them awaiting their answer " How do you know my name??"

Dante_Sparda nods, then looks to Enaid. She has a very different aura around her, then he smells the fragrances. He chuckles. "Because I said it Lillia. It's nice to meet you both." He bows.

Njoka mutters to himself, moving his lips as the people below him speak, as if mocking them, but truely, sometimes, he wished his life was simple enough that minor conversations could satify him... That day was far off... He sighed, taking in the air around him, he did like the certain calmness of the forest, and the swift gusts of wind that took his hair for the shortest rides, such things were calming to even the toughest beast.

Alucinor gestures to Dante, chuckling and nodding. "A very intruiging notion, and one that I've certainly heard before. In fact, I doubt it's far from the truth. Nice to meet you both as well."

[Lillia ] she turns to Dante, but a sharp pain in her head causes her to drop to the floor in agony

Dante_Sparda having quick reflexes, he manages to catch Lillia before she collides with the ground. "Lillia? What's wrong?"

[Lillia ] "Euterria....Is.....Calling....ME"

Enaid side glances at Alucinor only a little surprised at how easily he ided those here....a smile of crushed velvet upon violet lips her responce to Dante and Lillia...each people hold their own beliefs she knew these and understood.and thus she would accept the female's suggestion...stepping back as Lillia turns and seems to fall into the arms of Dante....at the same time catching the scent of the male upon the breeze hidden away

Dante_Sparda "Calling you, what do you mean?"

Alucinor looks with concern upon the swooning woman and the man who now holds her. "Nice catch," he says, nodding his approval.

[Lillia ] "We......Are..........Losing.........ground...........To........Demon..........king.......Must Defeat him"

Njoka had his eyes closed, and he was completely motionless, minus the wind catching his hair from time to time, though, somehow, he knew what was happening.... Was it that he coulndnt care less, or was it that he figured if he came down that he would be at blame... One way or another, he wouldnt bother to react, maybe he didnt even want to be noticed, though his attention would flow to Enaid, somehow, she gave him the feeling that he was being watched...

Dante_Sparda "Already?" He sighs, nd helps her stand. He looks up to Alucinor. "Thanks. I guess this means we will be going now. It was nice meeting you both." Disappears with Lillia.

Alucinor waves as the pair departs for some other realm. "Good luck," he tells them politely, as if such conversation was the most casual in all the world.

Enaid looks upon the others as they disappear wondering what sort of fight would pull such away...as they go she takes a step forwards...the air suddenly carrying the sounds of bells merrily ringing...as she turns to look pointedly at the tree the unseen male seems to be hiding in...eyes sweeping over the branches....before stepping back to the tree placing her hand plam flat upon the bark of the tree...a nod slight yet there...

Njoka stands on the branch.... Lowering his head a bit, he smiles... He was found.... He places his hand on the tree as well, giving his own nod, though he was summoned... He lept up, taking a short flight from the branch, then flipped once, before falling head first to the ground, a large flash was seen and Njoka was gone, his trail, that of one fallowing two others

Alucinor eyes Enaid's curious motions, glancing once more to where the other couple had previously stood. "You know," he comments idly, "you'd think they'd give servants of heaven less painful means of communicating with each other. That headache didn't look very pleasant." He gazes up into the trees where she looks, her eyes following his as he tries to see what she sees. A brief glimpse of Njoka is sighted before he vanishes. He chuckles, looking back to Enaid with bright eyes. "I think we scared him off."

Enaid head lifts as she watches Njoka lift..fly..plummet and disappear all in a breath of an instant...head turning to Al with a smile.." I doubt it very much he has been lingering upon the broughs watching for some time..." her hand stroking the tree..." My friend told me...." her mouth shaping the words of thanks

Wolf-Cub pads into the forest , and just walks around.

Alucinor makes an odd face. "Watching us?" He seems slightly disturbed by such. "Or perhaps he was watching them ..." He dwells upon it for but a moment more before shaking his head. Likely it was nothing. And then he seems completely startled by something, gazing back to the tree incredulously. "The ... tree ... told you?"

Enaid can not help but laugh at as her words seem actually to sink their meaning into him......nodding her laugher dieing to a soft chuckle..." My friend yes......should it matter if the friend is a tree or a human all are living have I not just told you Al"

Alucinor seems perplexed and amused by this new notion. "Indeed ... yes. But ... it's just ... I never ..." He gazes at the tree for a moment, eyes peering at it for a moment as if seeing it for the first time. And then he smiles. "Oh! So you are! Thank you." He bows his head to the tree, seeming almost embarrassed. "Well now I feel bad," he says, looking guiltily at Enaid. "Here there are, each with voices of their own, and I've never known."

Wolf-Cub is already in the forest, his player is very annoyed with the computers in his house, and yeah, he's still padding around.

Enaid studies him a little at his reaction a smile upon her lips as she steps up to him slipping her hand into his before lifting and placing it as light as a feather upon the rough bark of the tree......" Close your eyes Al....can you not hear the beat of a heart ...like humans trees....flowers...every plant...has a life...it beats with the softness of creation they even produce offspring as much as any other species does"

Alucinor is hesitant at her touch, but puts his shyness aside and lets his hand be guided to the surface of the tree. He closes his eyes, and listens, smiling plainly. "Yes, I can ... I can feel it. It's strong ... and very old. And something else ..." Only briefly do Alucinor's senses brush against that broadly interwoven web of life, the sensation bringing a smile to his face. "Just like in the dance. It's wonderful."

Wolf-Cub pads around the forest, looking for a place to sleep again, because last time he slept in the open, and was awoken.

Enaid smiles now broadly...like two ripen velvet grapes so close to him now her hair brushes against him...her scent filling his nostrils resting her smaller hand upon his lightly fingers upon his...her arm resting upon his own thick muscled being..." Yes yes..like the dance ..everything is connected by the thread of life each weaven together....all you need do is open your eyes truely and look"

Alucinor has never felt such comforts ... to feel another's touch so light upon his arm, to have every breath colored by such wonderful floral perfumes, and be so wrapped up in another's voice. Her closeness gives him pause, and for a moment he is only thinking of one being in that massive weave that is life. His heart yearns for more, so much more to whet his growing curiousity, his centuries old mind bedazzled by new experiences that he's never dreamed of! And yet he dares not ask for more. He can't. A genie must ask nothing. And so he stands in torn silence, taking joy in what at least has been offered thus far. "Enaid ... thank you."

Enaid head turns slightly as she looks up at him....she could feel the warmth of his arm that her own seems to cradle upon....strength oozing from it...like a gaint oak tree growing reaching solid..a king among trees...her voice dropping to soft rose petals " Have you never felt nature before Al...never looked with your eyes wide open...never tasted the truely to the heady scent of life...evrywhere Al....no matter where you look...always there is beauty...life....the thread".

Alucinor 's lower lip trembles at her words, so great is the joy they bring to him. Smiling happily, he shakes his head, his own deep voice like soft earth. "Never has anyone shown me what you have shown me ... or offered such beauty for me to behold. The world that you live in here ... it's unlike anything that I've ever known before!" Unable to contain his gratitude, he wraps both his arms about her in a firm and heartfelt embrace, his giant head resting upon her shoulder, his sweet face tinged with a subtle sadness now hidden from her view. "Thank you soo much."

Enaid brow arches delicately upon the first of his words....how can someone be so lost to that which lives around him....how can he not feel what there is screaming out to him...it baffles her that he could have been so closed....yet her heart flutters wildly now that he can see....taste..exeperince that which was only waiting for him to hold..a gasp emmits between those lips as she all at once is gathered into those strong arms she was only moments resting upon.....feeling them around her body and the gentle weight of his head upon her shoulder....her arms coming up to wrap and rest upon him as much as she can like gentle willow branches...her head leaning forwards to rest upon his hair...her own mass of locks falling upon shoulders and face of Al giving him the chance of breathing more of her scent...." There is no need for thanks.....I am happy that you can see with open eyes"

Alucinor retreats from the embrace, her scent lingering powerfully in his senses. "I've never felt this alive before," he tells her, shaking his head in wonder. "You cannot know. I only wish ..." His words stop short as he notices something white resting upon his shoulder. Fingers gently pluck it from its place as he holds a small petal in front of his face, admiring it even as it sparks a sudden idea. "Yeesss ..." He beams now, looking back to her with a smile.

Enaid fingers comb lightky through soft hair as her slips away from their embrace.....eyes bright upon him now dropping to the feather between his fingers...a softness of smiles " What is it you wish for....?"

Enaid lifts eyes that are dancing brightly with lights.....ever changing like the flowers of the season...to rest upon him ...reaching out just to let selnder fingers stroke over his arm before letting them drop to her side....

-Zack- walks in and takes a lay down by his usual spot by the lake

Alucinor smiles broader than she has seen him do thus far in their short time spent together, eyes twinkling with delight. As her hand retreats, his own moves to clasp it gently and keep it close. "Another of the laws states that should a genie ever be given a gift of any sort, he must give one of his own in return." He leans closer now, his words deliberate and kind. "You have given me so much, Enaid ... I wish only to thank you properly." He stands and waits for her reply, hanging on the edge of a knife.

Enaid blinks somewhat surprised....his eagerness as she looks into his eyes....her fingers curving around his own......." A gift.....but I give you nothing Al....nature is already here just waiting for you to see..I have done little but open your eyes to your surroundings"

Alucinor shakes his head, his grin no less than before. "Then your gift was the gift of sight. And indeed one such as myself could hardly accept a gift of any other kind." He now clasps both her hands in his warmly, bringing them together. "Let me repay you, please."

Enaid smiles aws she feels his strong hands grasps her own lost in his so large in size they feel...." If this is what you want to do Alucinor truely....it has pleased me greatly to show you....to witness the joy ...the wonders of a newly discovered ground....but if you wish this truely then I will allow it"

Alucinor beams happily at Enaid, pleased. "It is what I want, yes." He straightens visibly, bearing himself proudly upright and clearing his throat, his arms adjusting briefly before he speaks again in a profound voice. "Go ahead. Ask me for anything. Anything you want."

Enaid tilts her head.....she had not wanted anything for she had all that she neede d good mother earth saw to that....yet here he was asking her what she wanted..." Anything Alucinor.....anything at all?"

Alucinor grits his teeth, seeming lightly ashamed. "Weellll," he corrects himself, "not quite anything . You should understand, this won't be a full blown wish. So don't start wishing whole galaxies into existence on me or anything." He chuckles musically, shaking his head. "But yes, anything. Just try to keep it light." And he certainly hopes she does, as Al knows full well that he's bending things just a little. Just like he always does.

Enaid slowly smiles eyes sweeping over him dancing with bright multicoloured lights...." Ahhh.....I see..would this class as one of those wishes I am given.....3 I have heard it is though I have never before met a genie".

Alucinor grins, his head wobbling slightly and letting his curly locks dance in the breeze. "Yes, you get three wishes ... and no, this isn't one of them." His excitement begins to spill over as he takes light dancing steps, unable to keep still. "Oh, come now! Certainly there must be something you want?"

Enaid laughs softly her gaze dropping to the ground where the white petal lays like a snowflake....eyes lifting slowly to meet his own....." why do you not surprise me with a gift.......although it would be nice to....." she shakes her head sending an array of fragrances assailing towards him..

Alucinor had actually considered surprising her, and is now strongly considering it. However he cannot abide her sentence unfinished, drawing her closer to him and coaxing her on. "It would be nice tooo ...?"

Enaid head tilts back a little as she looks up at him......her eyes searchingly sweep over his face to rest intently upon his eyes....." To ......fly perhaps for a short while.....or....no...I would much rather take you to see my home ...."

Drake_Windale walks into the forest looking up to the sky, he looks round and the slowly seats himself on a fallen over tree log on the edge of the forest clearing

Alucinor gazes back into her eyes with his own mystical gaze, beaming proudly down to her with a hint of mischief in his eyes. "And why not both?" Without warning, he bends low to sweep powerful arms against, her, scooping her up into his arms even as wings appear upon his back, sprouting from nothing ... though this time they are not the noble feathered wings of a bird of prey. Rather they are thin and leathery, much like that of a bat's. Legs spring up powerfully as his wings assail the air, propelling them easily upward into the air amidst sounds of laughter.

Enaid eyes widen in gentle surprise she had not expected this for she was unused to having her wants granted...needing little..wanting little that she already did not have....and with a whish of air....she feels his strong arms about her as he scoops her up into them.....holding her breathe as she feels him so close to her almost as if hearing his haertbeat....her head tilts as she looks up into his eyes...his face wondering at the strong lined features it possesses those grape coloured lips parting in a smile as her arm stretches out to wrap around him.....fingers holding grasping lightly upon his shirt...head resting back upon his chest...indeed now hearing the booming sound of life

Enaid eyes widen in gentle surprise she had not expected this for she was unused to having her wants granted...needing little..wanting little that she already did not have....and with a whish of air....she feels his strong arms about her as he scoops her up into them.....holding her breathe as she feels him so close to her almost as if hearing his haertbeat....her head tilts as she looks up into his eyes...his face wondering at the strong lined features it possesses those grape coloured lips parting in a smile as her arm stretches out to wrap around him.....fingers holding grasping lightly upon his shirt...head resting back upon his chest...indeed now hearing the booming sound of life
