[b]West Watch Tower[/b]

Naream looked unimpressed at his fellow 'Queens Blades' the entire time they were travelling together, for a brief moment he had been intrigued with the other Drow that were present but when he found out it was just a priestess bitch and associated lackey he ignored them, the giant walking and telepathic scarab was also a interesting oddity, but his interest in that one was more on a... academic level, he wondered if that shell of his would stay intact and strong upon death. Such musings passed as a familiar face came out of breath to the column of Queens Blades, Mikan of all people, out of breath but telling quite the tale of a mad illusionist with a sinister plot for the town where the two queens were located.

He listened to the descriptions of the 'hot zones' in the town and ultimately just shrugged, if goign along with this meant he was eventually going to get what he wanted... if it wasn't some carrot on a stick they held out in front of him to lure him. If that was the case... well he was Drow, revenge and savoring how to do it was a trademark of his species. Eventually he walked towards Mikan while some of the others already divided on where to go and he nodded to her. "Mikan."

The green haired girl turned and blinked, before smiling wide. [b]"Naream!? You are still alive?"[/b] She let out a giggle and grinned at him. [b]"And you became a Queens Blade?[/b] She then frowned and pouted, [b]"Wait, why didn't you came to see me? Or was Mikan not worth your time to visit? Hmm?"[/b]

He just smiled and shrugged, "I would love to have seen you after I escaped that place my master send me to, before I stabbed him in the back, but I had more pressing concerns." For a moment the look on his face got dark and twisted with anger before he shook it off and just shrugged. "Princess- I mean Queen Kouri had decided to take that precious book from my master, by rights it is mine, my heritage and inheritance. So when I heard it was in the capital I cam looking for it there... funny thing about breaking into the mage guild with an all powerful and ancient mage residing there, they don't take well to stealing, even if the property is mine to begin with." He raised his hands and showed the shackles that kept his hands together and then looked down and shook his feet to make the chains there jingle and jangle too. "So got a choice, if you can call it that, execution for being a necromancer and a burglar, who might or might not have wounded, allegedly killed a couple of mage students or join the Queens Blades."

Mikan grinned, [b]"Oh is that so? So you decided to join up, huh? Well good for you."[/b]

He decided not to say he had chosen execution at first but then changed his mind when they came with the carrot on a stick, that if he served with loyalty he would get the necromantic tome, which was still rightfully his to begin with! Instead he just smiled and shrugged, "Pretty much... so would love to help, only." He showed the shackles again, "Care to help me remove these?"

She just grinned and winked, [b]"Aww but I could have such fun with you in shackles and chains, don't you agree?"[/b]

He shivered seeing that smile again after so long and let out a cough, before quickly shaking his head clearing it of any images of what she could do to him while he was in chains. "So... I am guessing those slu- I mean assassins are still in the picture, because I guess that comment about chains is their influence?" She just smirked and instead of answering came out with some tools and within seconds had the shackles and chains removed, leaving him rubbing his wrists to keep the blood flowing, well one of his wrists, since the other was rather devoid of blood vessels, or muscles, or any flesh for that matter. "My thanks. Right then I won't hold up any of your time and head to this western watch tower, sounds fascinating."

She giggled, [b]"Have fun."[/b]

He frowned, "Say aren't those two Queens, Kouri and the werewolf, in danger? Yet you act so..."

She kept grinning and shrugged, [b]"They have been through worse, you should know you were there for a few of those times, so I don't feel the need to worry, besides."[/b] She smirked, [b]"I believe in them. Now off you go, have fun and make some friends, alright?"[/b]

He looked at her and blinked, shaking his head. "You are a strange individual... oh well." He just shook his head and went on his way, chuckling.

When he arrived at the tower some others were also already there and he just looked at it for a moment... and then shrugged, he had seen more impressive buildings in his time and instead looked around for any potential danger, looking carefully at the ravens, ordinarily he liked ravens, carrion birds were a normal sight around his preferred method of working after all but these... these looked rather intelligent out of their eyes, a bit too much. He looked at the other Queens Blades present, he opted to wait and observe for now, no sense in being the first to suggest something or stand out, that was not the Drow way.
