A fake. A sham to seem as such to complete its task faster. As such any emotional response seen by Dirka was nothing more than manipulation. Perching on her shoulder however, was difficult. It was the size of a human, after all - but perhaps Dirka wasn't human sized in this case? Either way, they all ended up back in Iva's library in a swift manner. Right in front of a very surprised Lahzria. "...ah?" The human had seemed to have found its way to the main chamber, where Iva's throne was. She stared at Drika and Hayim for a few seconds before grinning excitedly. "Dirka, right! And Hayim! I recognize you from the books!" Several scrolls and books were splayed out on the table, open on various different topics starting with the other gods and Iva's current knowledge on them. "Oh wow, I didn't think I'd meet both of you today either!" She giggled, still wearing her bloodied furs, obviously not having bothered to clean up. Before Hayim could reply however, the black winged creature picked Hayim up in its claws, and headed for the exit, leading the plant god up the stairs and towards the top floor where Iva was. If Dirka tried to follow, she'd find the wall above the doorway slamming shut, preventing her from following directly. It seemed like the Library didn't want her to follow, and it'd probably disallow her free access and teleportation within if she tried meaning she'd need far more energy than normally to do so, if she was capable of doing it at all. "Hey hey, Lady Dirka!" Lahzria energetically walked over to the goddess. A few books had decided that since they were done with, to flutter off and find their proper resting places within the library. "You can teach me magic right?" She didn't bother explaining who she was, why she was here, or anything else. "Or something. Lord Iva probably wouldn't mind." [hr] Meanwhile the Aho'Nohg carried Hayim all the way up to the top of the tower, where the balcony and the field of small grass was situated. The view was likely considered breathtaking by most, but for Iva it seemed nothing more than an average occurrence. Hayim would find the Illuminator shooing away another messenger, just having delivered Nerplagius' response. [color=silver]"Ah! Brother Hayim!"[/color] The black skinned creature let Hayim down, placing him upon the edge of the coarse, tough grass before flying off. [color=silver]"Such a pleasure to see you! If you couldn't tell from my message my heart, it aches!"[/color] With a dramatic flourish, placing the back of his hand upon his head he twirled in a mildly comical manner. [color=silver]"My soul it cries! My body shrieks with sadness! Such a tiring, bland realm this is! Oh every day all I see is nothing but endless cold and empty minds."[/color] Twirling back over to Hayim, Iva held out a hand, the white flower Drika gifted him earlier held out in his hand. [color=silver]"Hayim, you are the only one who can cure the sadness. Make me a wonderful forest here. A place where I can frolic through fields of these flowers, admire nature in all of its beauty!"[/color] [hr] [@jetipster] The messenger showed no response to Svieands mutterings or words, merely moving mechanically along. It seemed unfazed by the coat, though it realized like this it could complete its task without freezing. It had delivered the letter, now it just needed a response. It merely traveled silently, watching the events happening with impatience. It needed a reply and it needed to return swiftly to inform his lord. It flew silently along, above them, occasionally letting out a low shriek but for the most part watching and waiting.
