    The Manta Rays approached the Castle from the North. From her perch on the back of the Manta Sarah could see Bandersnatch as a little dot on the south side of the castle shooting balls of fire over the outer wall and hitting the stone of the towers. Directly underneath her she could see the top of a large square parapet lined pavilion built atop one of the towers. There were maybe twenty guards standing on the pavilion looking up at the Manta's. [color=00a651]"It appears we are expected,"[/color] Asra's voice chimed in Sarah's ear. 

    The Manta's landed and the soldiers began to unload their goods. One of them walked up to Sarah and helped her down. "Miss," he said chivalrously, "we weren't expecting a lady in attendance. Welcome, to Castle Solace! From whence do you come?"[/quote]
[color=ed145b]"Oh,"[/color] Sarah gasps as they approach the castle. [color=ed145b]"That's a bit surprising... I don't think Master Thunderfist had time to mention me to anyone..."[/color]

Stepping off the Manta, she straightens her cloak, pulling back the hood, and gives a polite bow.

[color=ed145b]"Forgive my sudden intrusion,"[/color] she speaks up. [color=ed145b]"My name is Sarah, and I've come from Master Thunderfist's island. The villagers were kind enough to allow me onto these majestic sky-mantas, so forgive my sudden appearance.

"However, I have... sad news. M-Master Kensu Th-Thunderfist... is dead. He was slain by an agent of Draygon. I... I'm sorry."[/color]

[quote]    King Kovar looked out the window from his study. He could hear Bandersnatch yelling a challenge. [i]Give up the Oracle and Wizard and no one has to die.[/i] Over and over again he yelled before blasting the castle again. Kovar felt sad, he didn't know what to do. There was no Oracle at the Castle, it had been sent away as a gift for some cousin or another's wedding. Tornel had told the king that they weren't valuable, just decoration. But now one of Draygon's lieutenants was banging down his door looking for one. [i]Why now?[/i] he thought, [i]why after all this time we've been left alone do they now harass us? And why do they want the Oracles?[/i] The King was at a lost. 

    The door banged loudly. "Your Highness!" A Paladin's voice called though the thick door, "The Rays from the Islands have brought their load, and they brought a passenger sir." The King motioned for his attendant to open the door. 

    When the Knight saw the King he fell to his knee. "And why is that my concern?" The King asked.

    "She has Pink hair sir," The Paladin said, looking down.

    The King stroked his long beard. He remembered that one of the Oracle renderings had pink hair, maybe the Rays had brought them a way out of this mess. "Bring her to me, and good work young Knight. What is your name?"

    "Sir Brunch, Your Highness." The knight said. He snapped up at the King's command and went to fetch the young girl to see the King. 

[hider=SYNOPSIS] Sorry, I had to write this out quick, so there may be errors. Sarah has landed at Solace and the King has requested an Audience. Not bad, waking up one day and seeing a King shortly after. You just landed, I hope you're not overwhelmed :)[/hider]

Sarah is quite surprised by the stares and the gawking; she suspects something about her appearance isn't very common around these parts. It's probably the pink hair; none of the villagers on the island had pink hair either.

[color=ed145b]"L-look, Master Kensu wanted to dispose of these cannisters, whom should I talk to about-"[/color]

She then realizes they're leading her... somewhere. She takes the opportunity to look around. The place is certainly a lot bigger and grander than the village she was in, and it has a lot more people. Still, after the claustrophobia of the caverns, it's welcome, even if the size can be a bit intimidating. Meanwhile, Pip kept trotting along, panting happily at being able to walk around after being forced to stay in one spot during the long flight to the castle.

She finds herself in front of an old man with a dignified air and commanding presence, someone she realizes is the King - though partially because Sir Brunch announced him to her, making her do a double take.

[color=ed145b]"Ah! Forgive me, m- your majesty!"[/color] she says hurriedly, giving an equally hurried bow. [color=ed145b]"M-my name is Sarah, and I'm most honored to meet you! I... I've come from the island where the Wizard Thunderfist lives... or rather... where he [i]lived[/i]..."[/color]
