the queen nodded to Alessandre "of course. I'll protect the baby and make sure they are healthy." She rather not call the baby a it. 'It' felt wrong. The baby was a gift so would be treated as such. "The baby will be healthy." She looked at Odhran lovingly "neither can I my dear but it's finally ours... After all these years..." She smiled happy tears "I can have a baby." She whispers looking at her stomach "I was so afraid.... That I couldn't..." She whispers

((I decided to borrow some things from Pepper... Hope it's okay.

{ Considering that I borrowed it from someone else, its fine It'll just be tricky for me to identify Odhran's posts against Wellbe's now, but eh, that's life.

The Ball should be starting soon with any luck. Sorry I haven't been able to post all day guys, we had company over. }

"Yes I must say I'm curious as to what has kept Junto from our gaze for so long," Adela said, swirling the wine in her cup around as she sat forwards at the table examining the crowd around her. Most were done eating and anxious for the Queen and her party to return so the night could go on. "There have been boats up the River White before, but none found any traces of Junto or any kind of city. Which makes me wonder a great deal about what was keeping this city a secret, and why it was kept a secret. Was it for the protection of Junto's population, or everyone else's?"

"I can't imagine you would want to settle down any time soon," he said with a smile. "There's still so much to see. And I have to agree with you there. Maybe in a few years I'll get married, but for now I want to see the world." He smiled at her expression, wanting to see the world was a great thing. "Who knows? Maybe you and I will end up on the same boat someday, heading off somewhere exciting," Aedan said, somewhat wistfully. After realizing what he said, he reddened a bit. He was embarrassing himself tonight, and he couldn't figure out why. Sure he was never great at speaking around women, but this was just getting ridiculous.

"No more fear," Odhran said, putting a finger under her chin and pulling up her head so he could look her in the eyes and give her a little, soft kiss. "No more doubts. Things are working out for us finally, and I won't have anything spoil this moment for you, my love." For another minute more, he stood and held her tightly, happy beyond belief. "Now, I'm sure our guests have wondered where we've gone off to, and are likely eager to start dancing," he said with a smile. "Shall we rejoin them?" Part of him didn't want to go back out to greet the aristocracy again. He just wanted to stay with Tsura and enjoy this for now.

"Ah, thank you," Alessandra said, flushing pink in her cheeks a bit as her gaze turned to Sozin as he spoke. "But I doubt my father would be at all impressed. I only did what every midwife can, I just did it in the place of a midwife. She looked back at Tsura and Odhran, wrapped in a tight loving embrace, and couldn't help but feel a little envious. She wanted someone to love her like Odhran loved the Queen, but maybe not yet. Maybe she could get by on her own for now. "All the same, you can't help but smile and feel happy for them," she said, her own smile growing as she looked up at Sozin again.

"I think the ball ought to start within the next hour, so once I've had a little something and gotten dressed, we ought to head out," Mordred replied, taking a bite of bread and cutting off a piece of cheese from the wheel. It would only take him about fifteen minutes to get ready overall, but he didn't want to show up too early, so maybe he would take the long way around to the palace. But then the roads will be crowded, and getting Baliss through isn't exactly easy, he thought to himself, taking a sip of tea and another bite of cheese.

((Except that Wellbe's posts will have a big 'Wellbe' above them. ))

Wellbe

Wellbe nodded at her thinking, wondering the same things. "Maybe it was both?" He suggested, "Maybe Junto's people were more civilized, and so they cut them selves off until the rest of the world caught up. At the same time, it kept Junto from ruling over the other people, and keeping them from becoming equal." He shrugged, leaning back and looking at the doors from behind Adela as she leaned forward.

[it's slightly odd for me because that's how I find my post... Odhran is dull red... Even with Wellbe right there I start reading without the bold because that is the color I need. ]

She nodded smiling into the kiss "I'm not afraid." She whispers she laid her head on his chest nodding unhappily she rather stay here "the anniversary of our meeting. Is the day we find out about our baby. This day is a gift for us." She whispers nodding "let us head back. Will we announce it tonight?" She asked faintly

"It would give the people reason to celebrate with you. And, it would be an even more joyous occasion for the ball," Nikolai suggested softly with a gentle shrug.

"Nonsense, you did wonderfully. I'm proud of you regardless," Sozin murmured in her ear with a smile.

"Alright, that shouldn't be too hard to tackle," Baliss replied as he continued his preening.

"Perhaps," I smiled not taking note of Aedan's flushed cheeks. I started cutting the roll on my plate realizing I hadn't eaten anything yet and buttered a slice. "Where do you want to go?" I asked looking back at him and only then seeing the flush on his cheeks. I said nothing about it but I didn't understand what had made him flush. "I probably won't know the names of any places but I'd love to hear about them anyway." It had been forever since I could talk to anyone about travel and the world beyond Junto. Now not only was I talking about but I was talking of such matters with someone who knew of the world. "There are maps upstairs in the library we could compare at a later point to see the difference between our maps and yours."

Adela shook her head, trying to take what he had said as mere thought and not an insult to her people. "I really doubt that Junto being a bit more 'civilized' would have led them to dominate the surrounding kingdoms," she said with a certain look that indicated to anyone who knew her well that she was getting defensive. "Especially not when a hundred years ago every kingdom, including mine, was protected by the fiercest warriors and greatest wise-men the world has not since seen. Since you've been out of the world for so long, I'm sure you're all not aware; knowledge is generally shared, not lorded over others."

"Oh that'd be wonderful!" Aedan said with a big smile at the mention of the maps. His brain took a pause for a few moments, trying to think of an answer to her question. "A better question is almost where haven't I been..." he said slowly, then realizing that that made him sound like a braggart, flushed again a little. "I still haven't seen the spires of the Three Islands. And the halls of the Northmen of Arioych." In his mind's eye, he could see a map of the world, the most up to date copy in his collection, something he had bought just before they had left on this journey. There were other places too that he hadn't been. "I've seen the Trilliani forest but never been inside it," he continued, rubbing the back of his neck a little in thought.

"It is indeed, a most blessed gift," he said, his own smile growing by the second. What joy he felt! It matched none other that he had felt before, excepting perhaps the day that he married Tsura. "Alright, my love, lead the way," he said with a smile, offering his arm to her to take so they could go back into the dining hall. His voice dropped to a whisper to match hers. "Whether you announce it tonight or not is your choice. But if most are done eating, I think we should begin the dancing and you can slowly eat from your throne in the dance hall."

Alessandra smiled again, her heart beat speeding up as she realized how close he was to her now. She took a half step away from him and looked up at Sozin, giving him a warm smile. "I'm sorry, we weren't formally introduced, but I'm Alessandra Aleydis," she said, turning to Nikolai. "You must be General Nikolai. It's an honor to meet you, and it was an honor to help the Queen." She dropped into a curtsy to Nikolai and then to the royal couple. She wanted to show the utmost respect, and make sure that her time here would be pleasant.

"Yes well everything's easy if you only say it is," he continued to eat, making sure that he had a little of everything and finished off his tea. "The tricky part will be getting you through the streets; they'll be incredibly crowed tonight, what with the ball being open to everyone, and no offense my friend, but you're not exactly people sized. Never mind the attention we might garner." He rubbed his brows, shutting his eyes for a few moments, and letting out a heavy sigh. "But even if we don't enact any plans tonight, we'll at least gather information about the layout of the palace," he continued with a little smile.

[WellbeWelloff]

Wellbe frowned slightly as he realized how what he said could be heard. "I meant no insult by that, it was just a thought. It's a little hard to take all this in, after growing up think you're they only people in the world. I would love the chance to go and see it all." He sighed softly, wishing briefly that things could be different. "I've read about many of the ancient cities, and their warriors. That's part of what made me want to be a fighter." He drifted off, as he started talking about his feeling in public.

[RedLionPaladin]

Nikolai dipped his head in response to Alessandra as he said, "Pleasure to meet you. It's nice to see that Sozin has made a friend."

Sozin grinned at his brother, glad things were going well first off. He wished the two of them could have met on different circumstances, but now was as good a time as any.

Baliss finished preening and fluffed out his feathers a bit before making them lay flat. "I can put myself up at normal height if need be. Don't get me wrong, I do appreciate the concern you have for me, but why are you so concerned about getting me into the ball?" he asked, looking up at Mordred as he tilted his head to one side, slightly confused.
