Ǥῖȿȿέȴȴέ¤ƊᾶгᾶѕϮгίӿ : She recieved a missive to come to Valane which she was a little confused by. Given the reports from Nimena about hers and Nataisha's conversation she had a feeling why. She felt it was best to resolve it on her own, without her father, without Nimena, without Lord Blackheart, just her and the king alone to try to gain some sort of <c>
Ǥῖȿȿέȴȴέ¤ƊᾶгᾶѕϮгίӿ : understanding from one Royal to another what is really going on here and not have something between two kingdoms decided upon advisors and other regents. Riding up to the gates she announced herself to the Vanderian guards who let her pass with her ten guards on the trip, getting to the castle she leaped from her horse and picked two of them <c>
Ǥῖȿȿέȴȴέ¤ƊᾶгᾶѕϮгίӿ : to come with her while the rest stayed outside with the horses. She had a feeling this trip wasn't going to require her to stay here very long. Then again she was an inexperience Queen trying to gain some sort of bearing on situations that were thrown at her after the previous King just vanished into thin air. She was lead to the main hall <c>
Ǥῖȿȿέȴȴέ¤ƊᾶгᾶѕϮгίӿ : where she and her two guards awaited for King Mattheus and the others, she stood still and firm looking for those around with hands folded in front of her awaiting to be adressed. <e>
ΩBłǻċkΩIrǿŋ : *He gave a simple shake of his head towards Derik when asked if he was going to join.* "No.. I really don't have much of an appetite and I don't need much food to survive on.. I'm just more anxious to get this done and over with" *He stated simply in that smooth tenor voice his as he would almost go about to pacing around in the kitchen before he*C
ΩBłǻċkΩIrǿŋ : *stopped to stare straight at Derik* "What do you think he wants?.. It's unusual for him to be around.. Actually.. I've gotten used to none of the royals being around" *he stated simply before leaning against the counter casually.. or well at least try too.*
MąŧheuşĐąŗķblądeউKõV : He had already arrived but in a way that none had known... but his own personal guards would know about. At least two of them were at the gates to await the arrival of those he had summoned to the Castle, while he stood infront of the huge bay window in the throne room. His hands behind his back and clasped with fingers intertwined but when the <C>
MąŧheuşĐąŗķblądeউKõV : Queen had been announced he kept his back towards the door way and even after the door had been closed behind her, he continued to look out over the lands. In the direction of where that one... of the five... spires had been. He would get answers on that eventually but right now he started to turn his head slightly side ways as well as using <C>
MąŧheuşĐąŗķblądeউKõV : his left hand to unlock with the right hand to beckon the Queen forth... to stand next to himself. "these lands are lovely... even during the most coldest of months... is it not?" he asked with a slight serene tone in his voice.<D>
Ɗεгiᶄ¤ƊᾶгᶄƘɳiɠhƭ : blinks and looks to his love with a shrugging of his shoulders only to grin and lick at his finger tips. Wiping his mouth and hands as he then took down the last of the wine mixture his mate made for him and even though he ate at least half of everything he was full. putting his hand out for Iron to take and if he did he would picture the city...
Ɗεгiᶄ¤ƊᾶгᶄƘɳiɠhƭ : the castle gates and try to teleport them there via the black flames... "oh man I hope this works love." he whispered after taking a deep breath and then concentrating long enough to then send them through to the other side.~
Ǥῖȿȿέȴȴέ¤ƊᾶгᾶѕϮгίӿ : She blinked a little confused by his gesture, but motioned for her guards to stay put where they were as she walked forward. His voice was calm she so far perceived no hint of anger. She stood by him and looked out the window listening to his words about the lands being lovely, looking out they actually quite were. She nodded with her hands <c>
Ǥῖȿȿέȴȴέ¤ƊᾶгᾶѕϮгίӿ : still folded in front of her. "They are....I hope in the future to visit them more often when things on both sides are calm...during which time I hope we are to remain friends.." She said in her soft voice as she continued to stare out the window a moment before turning her body towards him looking up at his direction speaking out. "Forgive <c>
Ǥῖȿȿέȴȴέ¤ƊᾶгᾶѕϮгίӿ : me if I am a bit rusty at meeting from one crown to another....this is my first week as Queen after all..." She explained to him as she waited for him to turn towards her and respond her right hand now held out to him as if to shake hands. <e>.
MąŧheuşĐąŗķblądeউKõV : He smiled slightly and shook his head while then arching his brows upwards as he was looking up at his own crown. He whispered a few words and suddenly his and her own crowns were gone. Taking her hand he nodded towards what looked to be an empty area but that was filled with a small band with instruments. As soon as the music began to play he <C>
MąŧheuşĐąŗķblądeউKõV : led her to the dance floor in a simple dance "This eve... let us just be the friends that you are wishing we stay as... no king... no Queen at all. Just the two of us for the now. Gisselle... I had summoned you to my lands in the hopes that we can rectify what has gone on between our lands. I have been brought up to date on the things that <C>
MąŧheuşĐąŗķblądeউKõV : Catarina had allowed happen to you while you were hear. Even by those in her employ and the abandonment of herself has been told to me... she had no hand in the fact that the five spires are down but that Lady Nimena did help in taking at least one of them down. I have been told of the curse that had been placed upon you and then Lady Nimena's <C>
MąŧheuşĐąŗķblądeউKõV : tortures to make that happen... I have been told a great many things as of late and I wish that you will hear me out on why I had sent my Regent... my General... my very blood line of an Aunt to your lands to sever the Alliance/Treaty in totality but one... the Trades that will continue to go through the Darkrose Clan. There is also the fact <C>
MąŧheuşĐąŗķblądeউKõV : that I feel an obligation to help you and yours but once as Lady Nimena helped me and mine but once. In the future and from this day forth there will always be a friendship beyond words but if Deeds go against us then our own deeds will be to not only shut our borders to you but the trade to stop dead in it's tracks as well. I am not a cruel <C>
MąŧheuşĐąŗķblądeউKõV : man but I am one that likes to see things go forwards and not be so stalemated as I have seen this treaty be such. You and I both have things to worry about on each side of our own borders and now that the Queen, Samurai, Fox and even Drizztren are all being looked for to be arrested in some form of fashion of our laws... I am sure that our own <C>
MąŧheuşĐąŗķblądeউKõV : side will be able to stablize and gain more to get rid of the last of the spires that have resurrected in our lands." while speaking all of this out he would be continuing to twirl and step with her in such a graceful manner.~
Ǥῖȿȿέȴȴέ¤ƊᾶгᾶѕϮгίӿ : She heard the music play and of course she would allow him to twirl her on the dance floor, dancing was one of her favorite things to do, it was a wonder on how he knew this? Maybe he didn't and it felt like the thing to do at the time, a relaxed environment for the discussion, which it was indeed. After listening to everything he had to say<c>
Ǥῖȿȿέȴȴέ¤ƊᾶгᾶѕϮгίӿ : she nodded and spoke out. "Considering everything that has happened I feel that a trades agreement alone is more then fine. Unfortunate for me my mother was corrupted by drow and later killed by a frost lord, my step father Sarkas after however he and Catarina's courtship ended just abandoned the kingdom. He promised a lot of people a lot of <c>
Ǥῖȿȿέȴȴέ¤ƊᾶгᾶѕϮгίӿ : things that I was made unaware of until these last couple of days. Before I was Queen even Nimena can tell you a lot was kept from me, as if I was to be kept in some sort of box. Now I am thrown to the wolves trying to write the wrongs of my would be parents. I believe Nimena took it a little emotional due to the fact that her mother was Sera<c>
Ǥῖȿȿέȴȴέ¤ƊᾶгᾶѕϮгίӿ : The Queen previous to Arafina whom married King William in which this treaty began. Nimena was distraught I believe on how she was approached by Nataisha...though I was not there I think it would have been maybe better for either she and I or you and I to discuss these matters in the future so I have first hand knowledge and would be better apt<c>
Ǥῖȿȿέȴȴέ¤ƊᾶгᾶѕϮгίӿ : to handle things as appropriately as possible. I can say I am a woman of my word and I intend to uphold my word much better then my parents have shown others if given the chance....I haven't been given one by most and I have only been in charge for a week. Very little I can do on such short notice.." She had remembered the name Drizztren..<c>
Ǥῖȿȿέȴȴέ¤ƊᾶгᾶѕϮгίӿ : the woman she found shaking in the forest that turned Cougar. She blinked when she heard that name as she looked up to Mattheus. "Drizztren? The cougar woman? What could she have done?" She asked curiously as she spoke out still dancing. "I saw her...not too long before I was made Queen. I found her in my city....she was in woman form....<c>
Ǥῖȿȿέȴȴέ¤ƊᾶгᾶѕϮгίӿ : disheveled. When I went to ask her if she was alright she turned into a cougar and clawed me then passed out as if she were scared. I had her taken to the castle to be cared for which I did personally because I felt bad for her....the next morning she took off, I went to go find her and some strange man beast thing grabbed her by her cougar <c>
Ǥῖȿȿέȴȴέ¤ƊᾶгᾶѕϮгίӿ : muzzle and vanished.....I never saw her again....but she looked....out of it, lost....like she was running..from you?" She asked curiously, if so she had no idea she was being sought after by the Vanderians. If so at least she came clean about the situation. <e>
MąŧheuşĐąŗķblądeউKõV : He listened and arched a brow at what she was telling him and especially about Drizztren... "She is wanted for treason against the people of these lands for she attacked my Regent, while the Regent was trying to help another, Lord Blaze Darkblade with a closing of a rift. She faught at the side of the one named, Sardonis and nearly killed Lady <C>
MąŧheuşĐąŗķblądeউKõV : Nataisha in helping him. It could be Sardonis that she was running from for I have just arrived and just this day put out the warrants. IF you see Drizztren again and if she seems to... trust you, perhaps you could find out what was going on so that we will know that she was or was not acting on her own while in Sardonis' presence... if you <C>
MąŧheuşĐąŗķblądeউKõV : could that is. As for the way that Lady Nataisha acted towards Lady Nimena.. I shall speak with Lady Nataisha to hopefully gain a bit more... insight on why it was that these bad feelings had to come forth. I shall also be sending a representative of the Darkrose Clan to your city... I do believe that will be Damecus, himself. He is after all <C>
MąŧheuşĐąŗķblądeউKõV : the Alpha of the Clan and is very affective in getting things accomplished as had been his predecessor, Drizztren." He smiled and as the music stopped he too had done the same but he would keep her hand and guide her gently towards the small bar within the throne room, right up to one of the seats to allow her to have a bit of a sit. "Do you <C>
MąŧheuşĐąŗķblądeউKõV : wish a drink?" <D>
Ǥῖȿȿέȴȴέ¤ƊᾶгᾶѕϮгίӿ : She listened in almost awe when she heard what Drizztren had done here. She couldn't believe that was the same woman she met in her city. "I didn't know Drizztren was her name when I found her, my real father Lucien recognized her immediately. He feared for me taking care of her alone but she seemed fine after I gave her some meat to eat. <c>
Ǥῖȿȿέȴȴέ¤ƊᾶгᾶѕϮгίӿ : When I found her in the forest and she was growling, she stood in front of me to protect me from that man.....he refused to give his name, only that he knew her and her mind was lost and if I stood in his way he would kill me.....she wasn't really answering to Drizztren, but she protected me from him, I guess she trusts me in some way. I have a<c>
Ǥῖȿȿέȴȴέ¤ƊᾶгᾶѕϮгίӿ : feeling in my heart that sometime in the future she is going to come to me if she is still alive. If so then I will have her come with me here. If she readily agrees then I believe that maybe...something did happen with her mind and it wasn't of her own free will. If no one perished that day ...if I may request that I do bring her here that <c>
Ǥῖȿȿέȴȴέ¤ƊᾶгᾶѕϮгίӿ : she...may not be harmed? If not then I understand....but I know what its like first hand to be...controlled..." She said as she was lead to the bar and asked for a drink and she nodded. "Got any wine? Doesn't have to be elven..." Even blood wine would do at this point, after all she was half blood elf, she awaited Mattheus's response <c>
Ǥῖȿȿέȴȴέ¤ƊᾶгᾶѕϮгίӿ : sitting down in the empty seat provided all lady like. "Thank you for the dance by the way, your a wonderful dancer, its one of my favorite things to do.." She said with a warm smile on her face. <e>
MąŧheuşĐąŗķblądeউKõV : He watched her for a moment while then glancing around the bar area for a bit of wine. Taking down what looked to be a black or deep brown bottle from one of the lower shelves and after taking the cork from the top he sniffed it. His eye lids shutting to half mast and a light smile to bring the corners of his lips up. Taking a flute of a wine <C>
MąŧheuşĐąŗķblądeউKõV : glass down to pour a bit of the wine into the glass for her. He pushed the flute towards her and then poured himself a glass of a strangly light green tinge of a wine. The very scent of it was like the blossoming of the wild flowers in spring time as he then brought it up to his lips but then stops and looks over to her. A smirking upon his face<C>
MąŧheuşĐąŗķblądeউKõV : for he had not expected those words at all. "My dearest of ladies I am not surprised in the least that another... probably a bounty hunter came looking for Drizztren for she has done so much in her past that would probably make you cringe in your very seat. She is a liar... a thief and most of all an assassin... She does have her finer moments <C>
MąŧheuşĐąŗķblądeউKõV : though from time to time and due to the fact that you had fed her... that is probably why she was trying to protect you from this... male." he chuckled while then raising the glass to his lips but his gaze never seemed to leave from her. <D>
Ǥῖȿȿέȴȴέ¤ƊᾶгᾶѕϮгίӿ : She took a sip of her wine listening to him. She probably was an assassin and all those things he said, may have explained why Father Lucien didn't want her alone with the cougar. She couldn't help however to feel something nag at her very soul about this...particular case. Something wasn't adding up as she sighed lightly and spoke out. <c>
Ǥῖȿȿέȴȴέ¤ƊᾶгᾶѕϮгίӿ : "Sardonis I do not know only have heard many rumors about his abilities and the many havoc's he has caused upon many lands unfortunately from what I am told including your own. Though something is not adding up in my head....for a cougar to be that headstrong in battle, then all of a sudden drop from the skies in the elven city looking so lost <c>
Ǥῖȿȿέȴȴέ¤ƊᾶгᾶѕϮгίӿ : and confused that she didn't even know her own name. Maybe she did a lot of bad things in her past. Even as you said she did have her finer moments. Something is telling me there is more to that attack....and if I find her...with your permission I would like to bring her here personally and if am allowed to get to the bottom of what really <c>
Ǥῖȿȿέȴȴέ¤ƊᾶгᾶѕϮгίӿ : happened, because from what I am understanding based on what I heard from you and what I saw....something is nagging at my soul that things are not adding up....though most would probably consider it a trivial matter and I should keep my nose out of it and let Vanderia do as they wish....I feel like she could maybe be a piece to the puzzle of <c>
Ǥῖȿȿέȴȴέ¤ƊᾶгᾶѕϮгίӿ : everything that has been happening to your lands...I know she is going to come back to me if that man let her live...which he said that he was there to restore her memories and to stay out of his way....maybe the beast man wasn't really there to hurt her....maybe he was really there to help her...." She was really stuck on the Drizz thing....<c>
Ǥῖȿȿέȴȴέ¤ƊᾶгᾶѕϮгίӿ : unfortunate for Gisselle she only knew her as the scared woman, not this professional assassin, thief, liar that she is being accused of, though she would see no reason for the king to lie about such things. Which she was sure he wasn't. She took another sip of her wine and let out a soft sigh. "Sorry I seem to be stuck on the subject....as I<c>
Ǥῖȿȿέȴȴέ¤ƊᾶгᾶѕϮгίӿ : said something troubles me about the whole thing. "<e>
MąŧheuşĐąŗķblądeউKõV : He shrugs his shoulders at her words "If that is what you wish but I think that you should perhaps do so in your own lands and with your own people but IF I happen to gain access to Drizztren before you do then I shall let you know immediately and then we both, you and I... shall interrogate her. Is that alright?" he asked lightly after taking <C>
MąŧheuşĐąŗķblądeউKõV : a bit more of the wine into his mouth but after a bit he set the glass upon the top of the bar for he never did drink a lot of the alcohol beverages. "Lady Gisselle... I hate to cut this meeting short but I have been... traveling a great distance to get back home and I am quite tired. IF there is nothing else... you may stay this eve as my <C>
MąŧheuşĐąŗķblądeউKõV : special guest and in the morn you may leave upon your leisure. If that is your wish... of course." he looked over to the small band and they disappeared from view as he then looked back towards Gisselle to await her words with the answers to his questions~
Ǥῖȿȿέȴȴέ¤ƊᾶгᾶѕϮгίӿ : "I will and if I find her first I will let you know immediately." She took one more sip of her wine and set her half empty glass to the side and spoke out. "I would love to stay the night Sir Mattheus....but as you know I have a lot of work to do catching up and fixing what King Sarkas tore a sunder....though I will visit again soon, and <c>
Ǥῖȿȿέȴȴέ¤ƊᾶгᾶѕϮгίӿ : hopefully with Drizztren and some answers.." She said as she stood up from her chair and walked over taking his hand grasping it gently speaking out. "Rest well your majesty...till we meet again.." She gave it a gentle shake and with that she gave him a warm smile and headed towards her two guards standing at attention, She waved for them to<c>
Ǥῖȿȿέȴȴέ¤ƊᾶгᾶѕϮгίӿ : follow and they did so out of the main hall to their horses. "We leave tonight....we have much work to do.." She told her other guards outside and she grabbed her horse and was helped up then waiting for her guards to mount up so they could take off back home. <e>
MąŧheuşĐąŗķblądeউKõV : He took that hand but not only did he shake it but he turned it over so to kiss the back of it and as soon as he did so... she felt her small elven crown upon her head once more. "I shall look forward to the time you can return and hopfully either with Drizztren in tow or at least some answers. Do travel safely, M'Lady Gisselle." with that he <C>
MąŧheuşĐąŗķblądeউKõV : went to walk on over to the huge bay window and with a slight rise of his hands did a portal open up just as soon as the queen's men and herself were ready to go. A portal that led her right back to her very city instead of having to travel through the lands with it being this cold and this... run over with the new creatures from the new spires.<D>
Ǥῖȿȿέȴȴέ¤ƊᾶгᾶѕϮгίӿ : understanding from one Royal to another what is really going on here and not have something between two kingdoms decided upon advisors and other regents.

MąŧheuşĐąŗķblądeউKõV : He listened and arched a brow at what she was telling him and especially about Drizztren... "She is wanted for treason against the people of these lands for she attacked my Regent, while the Regent was trying to help another, Lord Blaze Darkblade with a closing of a rift. She faught at the side of the one named, Sardonis and nearly killed Lady <C>
MąŧheuşĐąŗķblądeউKõV : Nataisha in helping him. It could be Sardonis that she was running from for I have just arrived and just this day put out the warrants. IF you see Drizztren again and if she seems to... trust you, perhaps you could find out what was going on so that we will know that she was or was not acting on her own while in Sardonis' presence... if you <C>
MąŧheuşĐąŗķblądeউKõV : could that is. As for the way that Lady Nataisha acted towards Lady Nimena.. I shall speak with Lady Nataisha to hopefully gain a bit more... insight on why it was that these bad feelings had to come forth. I shall also be sending a representative of the Darkrose Clan to your city... I do believe that will be Damecus, himself. He is after all <C>
MąŧheuşĐąŗķblądeউKõV : the Alpha of the Clan and is very affective in getting things accomplished as had been his predecessor, Drizztren." He smiled and as the music stopped he too had done the same but he would keep her hand and guide her gently towards the small bar within the throne room, right up to one of the seats to allow her to have a bit of a sit. "Do you <C>
MąŧheuşĐąŗķblądeউKõV : wish a drink?" <D>
Ǥῖȿȿέȴȴέ¤ƊᾶгᾶѕϮгίӿ : She listened in almost awe when she heard what Drizztren had done here. She couldn't believe that was the same woman she met in her city. "I didn't know Drizztren was her name when I found her, my real father Lucien recognized her immediately. He feared for me taking care of her alone but she seemed fine after I gave her some meat to eat. <c>
Ǥῖȿȿέȴȴέ¤ƊᾶгᾶѕϮгίӿ : When I found her in the forest and she was growling, she stood in front of me to protect me from that man.....he refused to give his name, only that he knew her and her mind was lost and if I stood in his way he would kill me.....she wasn't really answering to Drizztren, but she protected me from him, I guess she trusts me in some way. I have a<c>
Ǥῖȿȿέȴȴέ¤ƊᾶгᾶѕϮгίӿ : feeling in my heart that sometime in the future she is going to come to me if she is still alive. If so then I will have her come with me here. If she readily agrees then I believe that maybe...something did happen with her mind and it wasn't of her own free will. If no one perished that day ...if I may request that I do bring her here that <c>
Ǥῖȿȿέȴȴέ¤ƊᾶгᾶѕϮгίӿ : she...may not be harmed? If not then I understand....but I know what its like first hand to be...controlled..." She said as she was lead to the bar and asked for a drink and she nodded. "Got any wine? Doesn't have to be elven..." Even blood wine would do at this point, after all she was half blood elf, she awaited Mattheus's response <c>
Ǥῖȿȿέȴȴέ¤ƊᾶгᾶѕϮгίӿ : sitting down in the empty seat provided all lady like. "Thank you for the dance by the way, your a wonderful dancer, its one of my favorite things to do.." She said with a warm smile on her face. <e>
MąŧheuşĐąŗķblądeউKõV : He watched her for a moment while then glancing around the bar area for a bit of wine. Taking down what looked to be a black or deep brown bottle from one of the lower shelves and after taking the cork from the top he sniffed it. His eye lids shutting to half mast and a light smile to bring the corners of his lips up. Taking a flute of a wine <C>
MąŧheuşĐąŗķblądeউKõV : glass down to pour a bit of the wine into the glass for her. He pushed the flute towards her and then poured himself a glass of a strangly light green tinge of a wine. The very scent of it was like the blossoming of the wild flowers in spring time as he then brought it up to his lips but then stops and looks over to her. A smirking upon his face<C>
MąŧheuşĐąŗķblądeউKõV : for he had not expected those words at all. "My dearest of ladies I am not surprised in the least that another... probably a bounty hunter came looking for Drizztren for she has done so much in her past that would probably make you cringe in your very seat. She is a liar... a thief and most of all an assassin... She does have her finer moments <C>
MąŧheuşĐąŗķblądeউKõV : though from time to time and due to the fact that you had fed her... that is probably why she was trying to protect you from this... male." he chuckled while then raising the glass to his lips but his gaze never seemed to leave from her. <D>
Ǥῖȿȿέȴȴέ¤ƊᾶгᾶѕϮгίӿ : She took a sip of her wine listening to him. She probably was an assassin and all those things he said, may have explained why Father Lucien didn't want her alone with the cougar. She couldn't help however to feel something nag at her very soul about this...particular case. Something wasn't adding up as she sighed lightly and spoke out. <c>
Ǥῖȿȿέȴȴέ¤ƊᾶгᾶѕϮгίӿ : "Sardonis I do not know only have heard many rumors about his abilities and the many havoc's he has caused upon many lands unfortunately from what I am told including your own. Though something is not adding up in my head....for a cougar to be that headstrong in battle, then all of a sudden drop from the skies in the elven city looking so lost <c>
Ǥῖȿȿέȴȴέ¤ƊᾶгᾶѕϮгίӿ : and confused that she didn't even know her own name. Maybe she did a lot of bad things in her past. Even as you said she did have her finer moments. Something is telling me there is more to that attack....and if I find her...with your permission I would like to bring her here personally and if am allowed to get to the bottom of what really <c>
Ǥῖȿȿέȴȴέ¤ƊᾶгᾶѕϮгίӿ : happened, because from what I am understanding based on what I heard from you and what I saw....something is nagging at my soul that things are not adding up....though most would probably consider it a trivial matter and I should keep my nose out of it and let Vanderia do as they wish....I feel like she could maybe be a piece to the puzzle of <c>
Ǥῖȿȿέȴȴέ¤ƊᾶгᾶѕϮгίӿ : everything that has been happening to your lands...I know she is going to come back to me if that man let her live...which he said that he was there to restore her memories and to stay out of his way....maybe the beast man wasn't really there to hurt her....maybe he was really there to help her...." She was really stuck on the Drizz thing....<c>
Ǥῖȿȿέȴȴέ¤ƊᾶгᾶѕϮгίӿ : unfortunate for Gisselle she only knew her as the scared woman, not this professional assassin, thief, liar that she is being accused of, though she would see no reason for the king to lie about such things. Which she was sure he wasn't. She took another sip of her wine and let out a soft sigh. "Sorry I seem to be stuck on the subject....as I<c>
Ǥῖȿȿέȴȴέ¤ƊᾶгᾶѕϮгίӿ : said something troubles me about the whole thing. "<e>
MąŧheuşĐąŗķblądeউKõV : He shrugs his shoulders at her words "If that is what you wish but I think that you should perhaps do so in your own lands and with your own people but IF I happen to gain access to Drizztren before you do then I shall let you know immediately and then we both, you and I... shall interrogate her. Is that alright?" he asked lightly after taking <C>
MąŧheuşĐąŗķblądeউKõV : a bit more of the wine into his mouth but after a bit he set the glass upon the top of the bar for he never did drink a lot of the alcohol beverages. "Lady Gisselle... I hate to cut this meeting short but I have been... traveling a great distance to get back home and I am quite tired. IF there is nothing else... you may stay this eve as my <C>
MąŧheuşĐąŗķblądeউKõV : special guest and in the morn you may leave upon your leisure. If that is your wish... of course." he looked over to the small band and they disappeared from view as he then looked back towards Gisselle to await her words with the answers to his questions~
Ǥῖȿȿέȴȴέ¤ƊᾶгᾶѕϮгίӿ : "I will and if I find her first I will let you know immediately." She took one more sip of her wine and set her half empty glass to the side and spoke out. "I would love to stay the night Sir Mattheus....but as you know I have a lot of work to do catching up and fixing what King Sarkas tore a sunder....though I will visit again soon, and <c>
Ǥῖȿȿέȴȴέ¤ƊᾶгᾶѕϮгίӿ : hopefully with Drizztren and some answers.." She said as she stood up from her chair and walked over taking his hand grasping it gently speaking out. "Rest well your majesty...till we meet again.." She gave it a gentle shake and with that she gave him a warm smile and headed towards her two guards standing at attention, She waved for them to<c>
Ǥῖȿȿέȴȴέ¤ƊᾶгᾶѕϮгίӿ : follow and they did so out of the main hall to their horses. "We leave tonight....we have much work to do.." She told her other guards outside and she grabbed her horse and was helped up then waiting for her guards to mount up so they could take off back home. <e>
MąŧheuşĐąŗķblądeউKõV : He took that hand but not only did he shake it but he turned it over so to kiss the back of it and as soon as he did so... she felt her small elven crown upon her head once more. "I shall look forward to the time you can return and hopfully either with Drizztren in tow or at least some answers. Do travel safely, M'Lady Gisselle." with that he <C>
MąŧheuşĐąŗķblądeউKõV : went to walk on over to the huge bay window and with a slight rise of his hands did a portal open up just as soon as the queen's men and herself were ready to go. A portal that led her right back to her very city instead of having to travel through the lands with it being this cold and this... run over with the new creatures from the new spires.<D>
