Hurati's House

Azrael, couldn't help but laugh at Kaede attempting to pimp him out, he stood up and went to look around Hurati's kitchen, but as his friend had said there was nothing to actually cook, due to nobody living for the past year or so.

”Hmmm, no food to cook should have brought that bear meat with us Kaede could have made something nice with that.”, Azrael cam back into the main room and sat down again, then looked at Ayla a little more, she was attractive that part was true though comparing with his sister, made him realise the danger's his sister posed for him. ”Hurati may be a while and Kaede tends not to listen to what anyone ask's her unless there's a good reason to so I'd put up wit it for now she wont harm you.”

THIRD HOUSE DOWN THE BLOCK STREET:
Balthazar entered her house and started to dig out fresh clothes for Claire. She then walked to the kitchen and started making food.

[Lady Foxy]

Teh Wyeth's House

Ayla stared at the girl, especially at the position she was sitting on her. ''Um.. Would you.. Please not be sitting that way?'' She asked her, trying not to blush at her comments.

[Hurati]

Hurati walked back into the house with a largish basket. He walked over to the kitchen table and dropped it onto the counter, "Instead of paying me back just make the food this time. Wake me up when it's ready." Hurati walked back out through the room that Kaede and Ayla were and passed by them, giving them barely a glance. Who Azreal brought home and what Kaede did wasn't his business until it directly affected him. He walked upstairs and into his room, stripped out of his armor, and lay on his bed. He closed his eyes and was asleep very quickly

[Lady Foxy]

Hurati's House

Ayla blushed, looking away from Azrael. ''Who are these strange people? I know the one that went upstairs but.. This.. girl and her friend are.. And why do I keep blushing at him?'' She thought while avoiding any looks from them, while looking at Kaede.

[Goryokaku]

The Wyeth' House

Azrael looked through the basket to see what Hurati had bought, he got it all out and slowly began to prep the food, he whistled to himself as he began to chop the vegetables and meat cutting them down and adding them to the pot, "So Ayla did you have any other friends here with you or just the ones that were in the market?".

There was no point in mention the fight anymore but she was obviously following Hurati for more then just a fight. Though Azrael was unsure of what it was she wanted, he added some water to the pot and placed over a fire for it to slowly cook, he whistled once more as he made his way back into the main room letting the food slowly cook. He wondered how the citizens of Zibola were doing, and if his farther had survived, though he found it hard to believe anything could kill him.

[Lady Foxy]

Hurati's House/The Wyeth's House.. Confused.

Ayla looked at Azrael, staring curiously at him. ''Those were my friends at the market..'' She didn't remember him from anywhere, but he seemed to know the small group she had gathered. ''So, um.. I guess..'' Ayla decided to just play along, maybe this what Kaede was talking about.

[TheDaughterOfHades14]

Claire sat down and stopped crying. She thought that she should stay there for a bit though. She walked over out of the alley then walked back into it. "Should I go now or stay for a bit?" Claire asked her self.

[rooiehaan]

"Yeah, yeah, ofcourse you've got other friends~ Like Az and me! oh, and that grumpy other guy ofcourse" She ended muttering, leaning from side to side on Ayla's lap. "So who are you, missy? Are you here for the food as well? I just had some really good slices of pie, ohh, you should've tasted them~!" She liked her fingers and made a funny gesture. "They were divine~!"

[Lady Foxy]

Hurati's House

Ayla stared at Kaede strangely, watching her childish behaviour. ''I'm Ayla, the Hero of Tuloc.'' She said almost in a whisper, not wanting to be overheard. ''You know the war eight years ago? I won against the Valeans.'' Ayla felt like the girl could be trusted, but if Azrael heard what she said she would be in deep trouble.

[rooiehaan]

Kaede's eyes grew big as she realised that the girl was sharing a secret with her, and leaned closer to her. "Who's Tuloc...? Was that a mighty warrior you defeated? and eight years ago...? Wow you must've been only thirteen or something~!" Kaede whispered back, all serious all of a sudden

[Lady Foxy]

Ayla looked at her amazement as she oftenly saw the same expression on people. ''I was ten. Tuloc is the kingdom your living in right now, and Vale are our enemies. We are at peace right now, but I know they have something planned.'' Ayla felt uncomfortable with Kaede sitting that way on her, disturbing her mind a little.

[Goryokaku]

Azrael finished the cooking he grinned to himself Kaede was good at getting people to speak and he'd heard everything, so she was the famous little princess, but that didn't explain her attacknig Hurati, he dished out the food that had finally cooked and walked in placing it all round a tabl, "Once i wake up Hurati we can eat"

Azrael went up to his friends room and opened the door, "Foods done, i'd get down there before Kaede eat's your share again." Azrael then made his way down the stairs and took a comfortable seat at the table.

[rooiehaan]

"Wha- so there's these evil soldiers that plan on attacking this country any time? Wow, that sounds exciting! Heh, and for a ten year old girly fighting soldiers, that sounds even more exciting! Hey brother, did we have any soldiers to play with when we were ten? Probably not, right?" She asked, while pulling her right leg up and over the other side of Ayla again, then turning around on her lap to face the table. She leaned to the side and looked over her shoulder at Ayla. "You don't mind me sitting here tonight, do you? Your lap is so much more comfortable then a chair~"

[Lady Foxy]

Ayla felt disturbed by her way of sitting, but she wouldn't want to bother Azrael, as something seemed wrong about him. ''Doesn't my armor bother you?'' She asked her, trying to see how she was going to eat, as the girl was sitting on her.

[Hurati]

Hurati yawned when Azreal opened the door and called in, blinking the sleep from his eyes. He walked downstairs and sat at the head of the table, rubbing his eye.
Hurati looked down at the plate and said, "Oh, so that's what I got. Go ahead and dig in everyone." He put the grapes and orange off to the edge of his plate for last and brought the bowl of mutton stew close to him. He took a rib and a piece of bread from the plate, dipped the bread in the stew, then started eating, not entirely focused on what was going on.

[berserkerhorn]

Balthazar finished cooking. She waits for Claire at the eating table slowly chewing on some asparagus.

[Lady Foxy]

Tekler, Bartleby's

Carter walked around the market, casually pickpocketing anything he saw that was worth it. ''Yeah right, like who needs that..'' He chuckled, staring at the road leading out of Tekler. There stood the road, waiting for him to go. Or, there stood Tekler, waiting for him to stay.

Zibola's Catacombs

The old man stopped at a right turn, leading them into a wide room before yelling something to a guard. ''Enough of 'blabberies, have the Valeans captured Zibola?'' He asked Simon, setting his hat on the table.

Simon nodded, pulling a chair so that Halina could sit down. ''Indeed. I almost died defending it, I wish I could have saved Tal.'' He said letting out a sigh, placing a his hands on the table. ''How much troops do we have here, Halgren?'' Simon seemed more than a guard by now, as Halgren seemed more than a funny old man.

Halgren placed a hand on his chin, thinking deeply at his question. ''About two-hundred. The others are villagers, you get it. They help around for food, resources, the usual.'' As he sighed, Halgren looked at Halina and then at Simon. ''I expect people to be surprised when I'm not laughing. I just find it useful for lighting up the situation a little.''

Simon searched something on the counter of a table with a map of the Tuloc and it's surrounding kingdoms, he pulled out some toy soldiers and such, placing them on their current location on the little model there. ''Now if you could order some soups, I would be grateful!'' He said laughing, calling out for a guard.

[Gorbaz]

Although hesitant, Halina sat down on the offered chair. It was starting to seem like she had made a good choice in keeping Simon alive, as he was starting to act more like a general than a regular guardsman. The old man, Halgren, still creeped her out a little, though. However, she didn't realise just how hungry she had gotten until soup was mentioned. He stomach responded by letting out a growwl, causing her to grin sheepishly in ebarrasment

[Goryokaku]

Azrael laughed, "Kaede sit on your own chair, let Ayla eat and try to use your knife and fork this time Kaede."

Azrael began to eat his meal, he needed to think ahead on what they were going to do, and how they were going to get back into Zibola and see if his farther was still alive. "Hurati i guess you came here to speak to the Govnor? did you garner any support?"
