[color=C6DEFF]"You don't trust me, do you? You're just like the others... Why do you look at me like that? After everything that I said to you..."[/color] Lila asked, obviously angry at him.[/quote]
[color=#744E74]"It's not like that."[/color] His face showed a slight wince as if he had been stabbed. He looked tenderly into her eyes as he spoke. He was nearing desperate for her to not feel negative towards him. As they walked he kept a watchful eye on their back. None followed, not even a guard. The blood and bodies would take days to clean. It was a humiliating thing to be ambushed by the Aion in the Kings home. 

Lila continued. Anui listened with a look of remorse as her pitch grew less beautiful and more hostile and unhinged. Also with the shaking of sorrow escaping through her voices soul.

[color=C6DEFF]"You want to know everything? Fine then!"[/color] Lila said, as tears started rolling down her face.

[color=C6DEFF]"I was raised by the Aion to be a weapon. Nothing but a tool for them to reach their goals. I killed many people for them. It didn't matter the race, age, sex... I simply obeyed orders for a long time. Oblivious to the fact that I wasn't an orphan like they told me, but I actually had a family I didn't have a purpose, nothing to live for and so, I simply followed their orders. They brought me here and told me nothing but for me to 'be ready'. I never knew that all this would happen. You know the rest."[/color] Lila said, looking down with a mix of sadness and anger on her face.[/quote]

Anui nodded briefly and awkwardly. He seemed unable to function entirely correctly when Lila was angry at him. Though he did his best to listen while opening the doors to the underground lake. He let Lila follow as she stomped her feet in frustration. Anui's posture lowered as he seemed to bow to Lila in apology. Before stopping at the boat and turning to look at her with a serious face as if he was too hurt by what she said to be afraid of her hurting him.

[quote][color=C6DEFF]"When I got here, I heard about the Moriarty family. I still don't know what happened to them exactly, but I can imagine. Mirror was the one I always served. Oblivious to the fact that he stole me from my family... I never cared about that before but now I know his true self... Treating me and every other Nayu like beasts to be tamed. Nothing more."[/color] Lila completed.[/quote]

[color=#744E74]"I see.."[/color] Anui said turning to look at the glowing tree afar. She did not seem to notice it upon entering but its light was the only source of it within this underground lake. Luminescent fish swam within the waters. Though their light was their own. 

[quote][color=C6DEFF]"Why have you brought me here?"[/color] She asked, still with the same expression.[/quote]

[color=#744E74]"When I was old enough to understand my purpose... I would come here to be at peace. The still waters and the soft white light of the tree. It was my only comfort away from my heritage."[/color] He turned to the boat and began to walk to its rope keeping it anchored to the shore. [color=#744E74]"This tree is ancient. It is said to be one of the few natural sources of twilight."[/color] He pulled the rope up and off a wooden fence. Then he turned to Lila. [color=#744E74]"What you went through.. What he did. It means nothing to what we have. With you by my side I can inherit the throne and put an end to the Aion. I will do this for you, I swear it."[/color] 

As he spoke he gently approached Lila and grasped her hand. Tenderly he looked into her eyes and placed his lips on the back of her hand before interlocking fingers and walking her over to the boat. [color=#744E74]"You are Lila Moriarty. Reclaim what you have lost."[/color] He lifted his arm to help her balance while stepping onto the boat. After she was on he stepped on and sat looking at her. He grabbed two rows and began to pull them forward and back. The boat moving gently towards the tree. [color=#744E74]"I apologize if I seemed as if I did not trust you... Never has a royal betrayed another for an Aion. So I knew. But it could have been that you were not a Moriarty and a Nayu of low blood who WOULD kill us. Now knowing what I know... I feel as though I cannot rest until your pain is avenged. I have never known.."[/color]

Anui's head lowered as he spoke. A calm sadness enveloping his vocals. [color=#744E74]"I never knew.. What it meant to be what I am, who I am. Until I've met you. Now my purpose is clear. Protect you."[/color]

[quote][color=0072bc]"Any question you might have, you need but to ask. I will be happy to answer them."[/color][/quote]

Allo nodded in respect. [color=#347C17]"We will have to discuss privately later. I'm afraid now is a time for serious discussion. A matter to be resolved here and now, in a way."[/color] She spoke with a relaxed tone. As if she was talking cordially but her straight sitting and stone like expressions gave a aura of how serious she was. It was not a time, in her narrowed eyes, to reveal too much her love for Sophia and Dragons in general. 

[quote][color=0054a6]"Penetrating the armor is possible... But I need to have more details regarding this very armor. There are some spells and rituals that can render something virtually indestructible... But those spells and rituals themselves are not. It is merely a way on how to approach and how to attack said armor."[/color] Sophia said, thinking.[/quote]

[color=#FBB917]"Well Sophia I will have you know it is made of the scales of the Dragon God who ruled over your kind long ago. Even you were under him at one point. His hide was said to be impenetrable by forces beyond our understanding. Yet which kind of force was not specified."[/color] Vrondi spoke with a pondering hand and an equally ponderous expression as his hand met his chin. 

[quote][color=0054a6]"I know that said armor is a treasure for your kingdom... But I need to know more details about it."[/color][/quote]

[color=#FBB917]"As said it is made from the dragon god. How it was created is a secret of the Divine who created us. Perhaps it is the secret to the ancient gods power that allowed the Divine to slay him and carve his body into gifts for each king and queen of the land."[/color] Vrondi looked up at the ceiling of this room. It had a painting of past kings and queens discussing at this table, always with Vrondi at the end. [color=#FBB917]"This is unlike ever before. We must delve into the secrets of the far past to solve a recent issue. This is why I have tasked a group of warriors to find an ancient sight seer who lives her days in peace upon the mountain of Vrondi. She will be able to give us eyes into the past."[/color]

Allo turned to look at the others before speaking. [color=#347C17]"It must be hard to spare your forces for such a trivial thing."[/color] She spoke up, Magnixx nodding in a halfhearted agreement. Eyes lowered. [color=#E42217]"Fotia has forces to spare. My men make good soldiers and are available for employment if you so need them."[/color] He said with a smirk as he looked Vrondi in the eyes, then to the others in a motion to forward it to them. None accepted and Vrondi shook his head. [color=#FBB917]"The band I sent out are formed from all over this land. They will be the beginning of the new allied forces. With each of your agreement they will fly a banner under all of our names. To assemble exceptional talent across the land. With this we will begin the first step to unified power!"[/color]

 The room clapped, Allo, Magnix, Tydra and their followers. However Sleeth remained ever so silent whilst sitting arms crossed in his chair. A frown on his face. He did not seem pleased. [i]"Unification...? What nonsense.."[/i] He silently whispered.

[color=#2DA16F] [i]A gentle song seemed to echo in the minds of everyone within and near the waters. 
She looked with large eyes and a petite head and frame at those who stood before her and her beast.
Her song became more erratic.
She looked at Constance with a blank stare and she slowly moved between her and the beast.
Slow she walked.
With a graceful step that saw her feet stepping on the surface of the water.
Before Constance she stood. [b]"We have a pact with the Sol to keep our waters pure. They have failed us."[/b]
Her voice rang like a bell in their ears. 
[b]"As such we will clean our own waters for now. How do you plea for transgressing on sacred land?"[/b][/i][/color]

[hider=Cave entrance][img]http://orig07.deviantart.net/9980/f/2013/165/d/c/outside_the_cave__by_eren_akinci-d68zmsg.jpg[/img][/hider]
The Cave entrance was elevated around the north east if facing it from Vrondi. It was direct from Nero. Once inside one would find it to be similar to a castle. Stairs and places to keep things such as storage rooms. It would then lead to a bridge. 
[hider=Bridge image][img]https://tse1.explicit.bing.net/th?id=OIP.ElAd-uk0QrKfe0Cd0RzhAwHaEc&pid=Api[/img][/hider]
This led to another entrance which led to another hospitable place. With spiraling stairs that lead to a room.
In this room were many mystic orbs. Brimming with mysterious forces. There an old woman would be sitting with her hood on. Rocking back and forth in her seat while whispering into an orb. The sun's rays shining down from above glass ceiling to decorate the room below with a cascade of bright colors. 
[i]"So what brings you here?"[/i] She would ask the first to enter her room.
