"Bonus points!" Elsa barked playfully, twitching her ears. But then she slumped together again, and she pouted: "But Elsa knows milady doesn't have any of those... Milady only as a small short sword hanging as decoration above her fireplace up in her bedroom; supposed to be taken from a lady Minotaur, if Elsa is correct... Thats where milady keeps all the valuables she's accumulated during her years after all. Y-you... want... Elsa to fetch it for you? E-Elsa is a good girl after all" The dog grinned, hoping to get pat as a reward.
The elf glanced at Zombie, looking him over to see who he was dealing with, before giving a small chuckle. he yawned, stretched, jumped off his branch and landed safely, before walking closer. "Taking in the local delicasies i see?" He grinned, winking at the goblin. "Heya doll"
"Heya stud" She replied, winking back.
"So, you want to learn how to use a bow, you said? Well, talk is cheap but training ain't. How about you show me how eager you want those flimsy arms of yours trained for something as honorable as being a yeomen, hmm?" The elf asked, completely ignoring the slime question.
"Alright, that sounds about fair." Minerva grinned, before stopping at the door. She bit her lip and turned around, before eyeing Heidi one last time. "I'm afraid i can't lead you any further then this; i'm not called for a second audiance after all. You'll have to go in alone, and talk to Lilith. You'll be fine dear, just remember two things. The first, is that Lilith used to be a very evil person before she calmed down and became tranquil. Hitting a sensitive snare could probably get you killed.
Then the second thing, is more a piece of advice. Always remember your place."
And with that Minerva opened the door and shoved heidi in, before quickly closing the door behind her. A faint grin started to form as she shoved her inside, and as the door slowly closed it only grew wider.
Inside the house was larger then Heidi had anticipated. To be blunt, this was all because of the interior design of the place; namely a mere big, single room. A throne standing in the far back, on a small stage to remind everyone that Lilith had transcended into godliness. No windows, no torches; but an ominous reddish glow lit up the room. Pillars where shouldering the roof standing about a meter off the side walls, where carvings of majestic creatures had been made; creatures with claws, wings and the exquisite body of a woman. The whole place was empty and devoid of furniture, aside from two big, long rectangular flower basins about half a meter high on one side of the room; one standing against the pillars and the other, right angled to the first, was standing horizontally in the middle of the room. Behind the second basin and in the middle of the room was a simple, small wooden stool and sitting on it, leaning heavily forward and hunched over a small bonsai-tree was Lilith; holding a small pair of sheers. She looked like any other woman, wearing plain comfortable clothes. She was of average height and fairly slim, and the only thing that seemingly stood out was her pale skin and her midnight-black, long wavy hair. She didn't look up, but simply whispered: "Hello, dear"
The lynx began to purr again softly and, still playing with Cassie's neck, muttered: "I'd love to give you your information, babe... but i fear that if i do you'll leave, and i get to spend another year all alone... Can't we just... sit here for a while longer, enjoying each other's presence...?"
Breathe easy, the doctors are about to arrive.
