"Gwynn!"[/b]

No response.

[b]"Gwynn you will cease ignoring me or so help me I'll string you up by those boots you like so much and let Ritsa use you as a plaything."[/b]

[color=8dc73f]"...sorry."[/color] She fell silent again as she sighed, finding a stone bench in the gardens near the headmistress' house and taking a seat on it. [color=8dc73f]"Just...thinking."[/color]

[b]"How about instead you do what you're good at and not think, hmm?"[/b] This earned a grunt from Gwynn as she folded her arms across her chest, frowning as she leaned against the edge of the fountain. [b]"Tsk, Gwynn darling why are you so difficult."[/b] The princess took a seat next to her, leaning on Gwynn with her shoulder. [b]"You are not cruel and the kitten is absolutely ridiculously wrong. I nearly wanted to smack her for her foolishness. What sort of person can't even tell a little white lie to make someone - even someone they no longer associate with - feel better. That was crueler than anything you could have ever done to that cat. It served no purpose other than to make you feel bad. That cat is sorely lacking in the empathy department."[/b]

Gwynn didn't say anything, merely looked to the ground as Nitsa's arms wrapped around her.

[b]"Listen, Gwynn...it is not your fault the way things turned out the way they did. That kitten should be ashamed of what she didn't say. I certainly didn't expect her to be happy with the events that transpired, but calling you cruel? You did what you could the best you knew how. You needn't beat yourself up over it."[/b] Silence followed, nothing but the sound of a gentle breeze and a cool night between them. [b]"The cat still doesn't understand, and I doubt she ever will understand what you wanted. Or she does, and she doesn't care. She is a special kind of selfish that I myself have trouble understanding. Which is saying something, considering my own reputation."[/b] She laughed.

[color=8dc73f]"...Gwah!"[/color]

[b]"Oh quit glowering and kiss me already you silly thing." [/b]This earned a laugh from Gwynn.

[color=8dc73f]"Please, the only way I'd kiss you as if you-mmmfah?"[/color] Before she could say much else, Nitsa was practically on top of her in her lap, smiling impishly as she placed a hand on Gwynn's mouth.

[b]"Shush you. 'Tis my first time seeing the sky, you know...such a beautiful thing, this moonlit. I won't have you ruining the moment for me."[/b]

Sorcha - Miren - Marie
[hr]

The festival passed without further incident.

Time passed, and the weather turned colder, the season of fall well under way and starting in full. Most people would probably be enjoying the fall colors and changing of the seasons. The cool air, the crisp crunch of leaves under your feet as you walked. It was the perfect time for a trip or vacation, to see the world and otherwise get out and do something new. Most people.

[b]"Ahh~"[/b] The silver haired demon sighed. [b]"This cold air is really bothering me."[/b] She giggled from where she stood, looking towards their destination. [b]"Tsk, nothing like the warmth of the underworld. Hey hey, dragon we there yet?"[/b] Sorcha simply glared at Marie, and didn't give her a response. [b]"Ah?~ Is the little lizard upset with me still? Hehe, I have to say that your cute face is angry. If my mom wouldn't give me a hundred years in the dungeons I'd [i]love[/i] to make you my plaything."[/b] Sorcha growled. It was clear that unless someone did something the dragon was very likely going to turn this little demon into a crispy dragon snack.

[color=00aeef]"OOf...K-katherine? Eerm, I know this is supposed to be a little field trip and whatnot for the students...or at least, on the surface. A-are you sure we'll find things related to Eith here?"[/color]

The place in question, was in a quiet countryside of France. Mountains loomed in the distance, with a colorful light forest decorating the scenery. They were almost at their destination - they had spent a few days traveling on foot to get to the place. An old, ancient castle that had seen far better days. It was absolutely massive, and completely overgrown with plant and wildlife now. Miren had her own reasons for coming of course, and that was because of the promise she made to Eith. For whatever reason, whatever happened to Eith had happened here.
