Liam walked around the corridor of the castle, his wings flowing gently behind him. Where [i]was[/i] he? Liam groaned and stopped by one of the windows, looking outside. Everything looked so peaceful outside. He sighed and leaned against the wall, suddenly tired. It's not like it was hard to heal a gash like that. He'd dealt with worse before. His father had asked him to meet him out on the terrace after he'd finished healing this man. Of course, it was a warrior, an angel. He closed his eyes. Why couldn't he be out there? It was all fine and dandy serving the royals, but why couldn't he be out where it really mattered? Where he could really make a difference. He let out a long shuddering sigh, irritated. It was then that he felt someone walk by, someone he didn't recognize. He opened his eyes and saw a boy. He was Liam's height with short red hair. 

[b]"Excuse me, who are you?"[/b] He asked, his brows furrowed. The boy smiled warmly.

[b]"I'm Luca, a new servant here. You are?"[/b] He replied. Liam nodded slowly, his thoughts confirmed.

[b]"Ah, I'm Liam. Jared's son."[/b] Liam explained, his eyes flitting back to the window, towards the terrace. 

[b]"Oh. Well, it's nice to meet you Liam! I have some work I need to do, I'll see you around?"[/b] Luca said, a small smile on his face. Liam nodded and the boy was gone. He sighed and closed his eyes again. This was tiring.

Lynn sat on her small bed, her wrist in her hand. She turned her slave bracelet over in her hand, slowly. Sleg. He was nice enough... She let herself fall back onto the bed, a small sigh escaping her.

[b]"You okay, dear?"[/b] She heard a soft voice call from behind her. Ms. Maggie. She smile and opened her eyes, looking up at Ms. Maggie. 

[b]"Yeah, I'm fine. Just... thinking."[/b] Lynn explained and then got up, jumping up with forced enthusiasm.

[b]"Thinking is dangerous. You know what that can do."[/b] Ms. Maggie explained, a worried look on her face. Lynn smiled and placed her hand on Ms. Maggie's shoulder.

[b]"Don't worry. I'll be fine."[/b] She said before walking out of the room. She walked down the dark hallways towards the room where she'd be assigned. The room was hot, the furnaces generating more heat than they knew what to do with. She walked up behind a man named Fled, a demon and tapped him on the shoulder. Slowly, he looked back, his old eyes looking down at her. 

[b]"Ah, Lynn. Glad to see you. Guess it's time for me to take a break, eh?"[/b] He said, a small smile growing on his lips. Lynn nodded without a word, the clanging of the metal in the room too loud for her to speak. He nodded back and then left to go take everything off. Lynn slowly began putting on the equipment she needed. When she was done, she stood next to the hot furnace and began to work, shaping metal into sword.
