Adela shifted in her chair a little, realizing that she had taken things wrongly. "Things have changed I suppose, but that's the thing about Junto being hidden away for so long," she said looking around the room. "You've been gone for so long that some of your people believe that they're the only ones in this world, and now that they know they're not, problems are going to appear." She paused for a few moments, looking up and down the table. "The curiosity will be overwhelming now, people will be flocking out the gates."

"You make it sound like he has so few," Alessandra said with a smile, pulling herself up from her curtsy. "I find that hard to believe. Someone as amiable as him is sure to have at least a few friends." She looked between the two brothers, noticing a few similarities that they shared. Similar facial structures, and broad shoulders for both brothers. Both made imposing figures, but Alessandra found that Nikolai, with his stoic, commanding silence was more imposing and more frightening to her than Sozin was, with his big smiles, and kind words.

"Call it worrying about a minor problem rather than a major one," Mordred said with a smile, starting to put things away back in the cupboards, making sure that everything was back in it's proper place. "I'll head off and get dressed now, just sort of....linger." He turned and headed down the little hallway off of the kitchen and main parlor room to his bedroom, looking for his good jacket and pants. His room was a mess as it usually was, but eventually he found everything he needed, changing into his good clothes. He picked up a pair of thin metal scissors and tried to trim his beard a bit, bringing some of the wilder strands back into line.

smiled faintly nodding she took his arm gently heading back to the main hall "I mostly want to prove to all those who doubted me I'm strong enough and can have my own heir." She nodded "I suppose we will have to fit in our dance after I finish.

[WellbeWelloff]

Wellbe nodded slightly, "And there may be those who wish things to go back to the way they were." He said, "But let's not add to the negative humor in the room." Leaning forward, and shifted a little closer. "So what is your city like?" He asked. Reading of places from the past, was a little different than hearing things told about current places. And he was genuinely curios, and wanted to learn more about her.

((It's a little short, but I'm waiting for the people to actually get into the dinning hall... lol))

"You would be surprised how often friends can come and go here. Still, I am glad that he has made a friend," Nikolai replied with a gentle smile as he glanced at his brother. Turning his attention back to Odhran, he asked, "Would you like to return to the dining room now?"

Sozin blushed slightly as he muttered, "Thanks Alessandra. Do you want to head back now?"

Baliss nodded and watched Mordred leave. He sighed heavily as he tried to figure out exactly what they planned on doing once at the ball.

I laughed as Aedan's smile got wider when I mentioned maps. "The Trilliani forest..." I mused trying to recognize the name. "That's not the woods surrounding Triliani river? Well that's what the river is called by our maps anyway" I lifted my now buttered roll to my mouth and took a bite, wondering about the other places he spoke of. I looked up trying to see if the other monarchs and lords had returned yet. I was beginning to worry, they were taking quite a while. We should have be beginning to dance soon and there wasn't a sign of them yet. I fought to stay in my seat and not run to find Odhran and Tsura in case something was wrong but somehow I resisted the urge.

Adela smiled a little as he asked about Civan. "Oh it's a marvelous city," she began, picturing the city gates in her head. "The gates are set between two mountains, as the whole city is set into a canyon. The gates raise and the first thing you walk through is the marketplace, with sheer rock walls on either side and mountains towering above you. Then there's the residential areas, and the park in front of the palace." She said, hoping that she was conveying it properly. "And the palace is made of white limestone, set right into the mountains," she said with a little sigh. "Balconies on all floors, so you can see the valley outside the gates from there. The farms set in the rolling hills and the River White flowing outside the city limits."

"Yes that's the one," he replied with a smile, as he too continued to eat. He had less food on his plate now, as he had already enjoyed most of it, and was now making sure that she ate something. "Although no one has sailed up the Trilliani river in years. The trees have spread and the forest is massive now. The River White encircles it, but on it's banks all you can see are trees, for miles and miles." He shook his head a little, thinking of all the people that had gone missing in those dense forests. "It's just across the river from Civan, and we lose more adventurers that way," he said with a little sigh. "There are people that live there too, but no body has seen one of them for decades."

He nodded to Nikolai at his friend's question. "Oh don't you worry, we'll dance tonight my love," Odhran said with a broad smile as he pushed on the door panel and let it swing open so they could reenter the dining hall and retake their places to announce that the ball would be beginning in a few short minutes. "I don't think there's much that anyone can do to keep me from dancing tonight." His smile betrayed his true feelings to their guests, but he didn't want to stop now. This was a joyous occasion now, and surely it was a good sign that Tsura had found out tonight of all nights, the Harvest Ball.

Alessandra smiled at Nikolai and bowed her head in thanks for his compliments. "Yes, I think we ought to head back now," she said with a littler smile. "I think we'll start the dancing soon, and I don't want to miss a moment of that." She gave a little sigh, remembering balls at home; the lights, the laughter, the beautiful women gracefully gliding with handsome partners in beautiful gowns. "My dancing might be a little rusty though, I warn you," she said as she began to follow after the Queen and the Governor. "It's been years since I had an actual dancing partner."

Mordred glanced in the mirror, running his hands over his beard, his jacket, his shirt, making sure that he looked his best. Something big will happen tonight either way, he thought as he walked back out to greet Baliss. Something no one can control, I know it. He held his arms out for Baliss to see him in his good clothes."Well do I look pompous enough for a royal ball?" he inquired with a little smile, trying not to break into a laugh.

[RedLionPaladin]

Nikolai gently shepherded the royal couple back to the dining room to tell the guests that the dancing was soon to begin. In his mind however, he was dreading the entire exercise because he was certain that his escort had no plans on sitting it out. He racked his brain to find a way to get out of dancing with a floating, giggling peacock, but he was running out of ideas.

Sozin grinned at her as he replied, "Don't worry about it. My dancing isn't the greatest either. At least you've got feet to worry about; try getting this length around a dance floor without knocking someone over." He gestured back to his coils with a grin and a chuckle as he spoke sarcastically.

Baliss chuckled at Mordred's words and nodded saying, "Yes, I do believe you look the part. You should fit in quite well with the crowd." Sliding from the couch, he asked, "So, shall we go?"

[WellbeWelloff]

Wellbe let his gaze drift, as he imagined what Adela was describing. "It seems like a beautiful place, where beautiful come from." He said, quickly following with, "I would love to see it some day." Wellbe hoped Adela didn't catch what he let slip, but she was sharp, and would probably not miss it. "How far away is it?" Just then the doors opened up, and the people walked out. Judging by the look on Nikolai's face, he wasn't looking forward to the dancing. Wellbe wasn't either, since he wasn't much of a dancer, but at least he had a decent partner.

she laughed at his enthusiasm hugging her stomach gently as the entered the throne room once again. She took his hands gently in hers as she sat on her throne smiling happily she loved this time of the year only because of how close the ball came to her heart. She knew it was a good time for the people took as she watched people around her some watching them come back in the room.

"All the way to the river white," I questioned in shock and set down my roll. "I know we have been gone for a long time but that long? I never knew it was that much." I suddenly realized how thins must have changed, land boarders were probably all completely new and half of the building and town I wanted to visit must have been dust by now. With those thoughts in mind I saw the monarchs reappear and they were washed from my mind. "Oh look, that must mean the dancing will commence soon," I laughed, pleased by the arrival of my brother and the possibility of dancing. Though my brother looked happy, happier than he had been in a long time. I needed to talk to him but I would wait for the dance to commence before approaching him.
