"Miss, message was not able to be delivered...Prince Myrus was too busy blowing up the attic," the rat squeaked, before scurrying off and not even bothering with the payment. Skaoi would be able to hear the explosions as well. [@mnkee]: Outside of the infirmary, the activity of the Palace is pretty much normal. Guards come around the corner - both living and ghostly - as they make their rounds. Servants take freshly cleaned linens to the various rooms and a groundskeeper has come inside in order to get a quick drink. A girl just a few years his elder was outside on the grounds, chasing a small creature that seemed to be some sort of rabbit? Or a possum? Or a tailless cat? It was really hard to tell... [@LadyRunic]: "I [i]am[/i] ~cough~ alert ~cough~ and ~cough~ enthusiastic..." Badger protested. He thought of himself as Badger and as Rhys told him of his life before, there was some dim recognition in his eyes. But he was young and small children's memories were often easy to fade and remold, especially after his time with the Young Army and then Rhys. The boy then did pretty much a bit of a shrug, not having much of a reaction to the news Rhys was telling him. Perhaps he didn't care - or perhaps he didn't really understand what Rhys was saying. "...Can I have another blanket?" Badger then finally said. [@FantasyChic]: As Fleur's witch ran off to fetch tea, Meadow was the picture of composure as she looked at the Witch Messiah. Fleur's protest to her evaluation - that she was not as strong as she could have been - did not seem to faze her in the slightest. "Good," Meadow said, twisting her ring once more. "However, there is a prerequisite to acquiring the army. We must be confident that you have a plan. It would not do for us to hand over our fighting force and see it amount to nothing - but if the tales are true, you are a brilliant strategist...A rose amongst the thorns."

The red aura still surrounded them but his own hair seemed to be immune to the explosions. He then looked at Amarantha, trying not to freak out. She was his sister's bodyguard - funny how only his sisters were under constant guard, whereas he could go as he pleased. [color=#FF0000]"I-I-I did this..."[/color] he told Amarantha, swallowing thickly. He jerked backwards somehow as Lyra came near, letting go of his curls and he held his hands out as if he could keep her away, ward her off, anything to [i]keep her from touching him.[/i] He didn't want to hurt anyone. He locked eyes with Lyra, his violet looking into her fair blue - and he jerked again to the side, the red energy growing in intensity and he screamed. He tried to get to his feet but the wall of the attic exploded and crumbled in small patches wherever he touched. Amarantha and Titan would both be hit with stray pieces of wood from the explosion. [color=#FF0000]"JUST LEAVE ME ALONE!"[/color] Myrus shouted. He wasn't one for anger - to raise his voice - but he couldn't stop it. As he tried to get space and distance from the others, he bumped into crates and stored family heirlooms, causing them to explode as well. The noise in the attic was like someone had set off an entire box of fireworks at once in a small, contained area. Yet as Valda pulled him in for a hug...And no doubt, the others looked on with fear...Nothing happened to the Witch Queen. He then just started to cry, the red energy fading from his hands as he hugged his sister back tightly.[hr][hr][center][h1][b][i][color=#cc33ff]Antonije Magnisky[/color][/i][/b][/h1][img]https://i.postimg.cc/j50qJXxS/LDZC.gif[/img][hr][color=#cc33ff][b]Location:[/b][/color] Number 40 Alchemie Way - Living Room[/center][hr] [i]Run, run, run they go, when they'll stop nobody knows... [/i] [color=#a81a75]"Brucey,"[/color] Runa, his mother, said warmly as she went inside and pulled her son in for a hug. She was almost a foot shorter than he was but she still managed to have a dominating presence in the room. Shadows seemed to cling to her feet as she walked and Antonije couldn't help but feel vulnerable - as if she could tell him things about himself that he would never know. Taking a deep breath, Antonije was relieved to see that her husband - although still tall - didn't give off that godly vibe. [color=#a81a75]"Now where is the lovely Myth? I've been wanting to meet her,"[/color] Runa said softly. She had a small bag with her - within, there was a gift for Myth. She wanted to welcome her to the family. To be honest, she never expected that Bruce would want to marry anyone. He was as sexual as a plant in her mind. [color=#cc33ff]"'Sup, I'm Antonije,"[/color] Antonije said, looking at the goddess and her husband. He was a wizard, according to the legends. He held out a hand to her and the goddess looked at him with surprise for a moment, before she laughed softly. [color=#a81a75]"I am sorry - I mistook you for someone else for a moment."[/color] [color=#cc33ff]"...First time I've heard that one,"[/color] Antonije mumbled. Runa then looked at Sylvi, giving her a knowing grin - once more her eyes seeming to say that Runa knew secrets about Sylvi that she wouldn't dare share with another person. Perhaps the Floor had told the goddess about who Sylvi was?[hr][center][img]https://i.postimg.cc/K8cWbHkD/22442948.gif[/img][hr][h3][color=ed145b][b]The Sea: The [i]Aricie[/i] - Nearing the Port[/b][/color][/h3][/center][hr] Minerva had remained up on the main deck, while the others had gone below in order to repair the damage. The hull was in proper condition now - the main worry was what to do with all of the ice down there that was frozen. Consequently, an announcement went around the ship that they'd be delaying their departure from the Port about three hours time in order to ensure the ship was seaworthy once more. [color=0099cc]"Thanks, lass,"[/color] Harlianne, the Captain said, as she nodded at Arnora. She tossed her a small bag of coin before Harlianne went back to her own duties. She figured a bit of money was the most she could do for the girl that saved her some costly repairs - not that she would have made them. Harlianne would have just stolen a newer, better ship - without any holes in it. She still might do that. [color=B8675D]"Mutant?"[/color] Minerva asked, curious. [color=B8675D]"I've never heard of that term before...No offense, but I had assumed you were just [b]Magykal[/b],"[/color] she then explained to Arnora.
