Confusion filled her before quickly being replaced with alarm as the slight, yet nonetheless distinct, scent of smoke came to her nose. She quickly opened the door, wincing slightly but not caring if she burnt herself in the process. All she could think about was that poor, defenseless egg in a burning room, but as the door swung open gently, it would quickly become clear that things were not as they seemed. She gasped as her eyes landed on a real live baby dragon, in [i]her[/i] room, and it was having a grand ol' time too. Her eyes widened in wonder, at the moment not really processing the fact that her room was literally on fire. Because, come on, there was a freaking adorable baby dragon right in front of her!!! She could barely believe her eyes, and as if the cuteness wasn't already enough, the dragon sneezed and instantly transformed into a human baby. Before she could contain herself, a girlish squeal that was rather unbecoming of a knight left her lips. She bit her lip, glancing back at the others. When her gaze landed on Asha, having not realized she had followed along, a blush quickly came to her features. She gave her a small, slightly awkward, smile before looking away. She cleared her throat and tried to regain her composure once more. However, she found it a tad difficult at the sight of the father clutching his newly born, or hatched rather, baby in his arms. She felt her heart melt a bit at the sight. However, at Thalia's words, she was finally pulled out of her trance enough to finally realize that her room [I]WAS ON FIRE[/I]. She quickly rushed forward and grabbed the nearest blanket before trying to smother out the fire. She glanced back over at Thalia, giving her a reassuring smile. [color=4169E1]"Don't worry about it. Like you said, she's just a child. Things can be replaced, but what you have is more precious than anything. I'm glad I was able to reunite her with you,"[/color] she replied earnestly. Meanwhile, a certain someone chose this inopportune moment to [b]Appear[/b] to Myrus. [color=808080]"Oh, you won't die, [I]yet[/I],"[/color] a voice whispered in his ear. [color=808080]"Now, why would this woman you speak of kill your dear sister Valda--"[/color] His voice soon turned into maniacal laughter. [color=808080]"No no no, she would just use [b]Concilium[/b] on you again and have [I]you[/I] kill Valda. It's a genius plan, really. If it weren't for the fact that I want to see her head on a pike, I would even kiss her for it. And then I would snap her neck."[/color]
