[Dracos]

Yes My Lord i will get right on the quest. Standing up quickly he gave another slight bow and turned to wal out the door. Heading towards the Direction of The Derby the ghost Capital of england where the last known Gytrash was last seen. How in the world am I going to get the Claws of a Gytrash?!

[Dracos]

Dracos entered the shrines once again with an expressionless face so as not to show pride or any form of triumph. Pulling out the Gytrash claws Dracos made his way to Lord Ea's shrine and knelt before him. My lord Ea i have returned and with me the claws of the Gytrash you requested. opening his hand he showed the Fire lord the claws. He winced as the pain from his half mended leg shot through him. but kept his form strictly so as not to upset his demon lord.

[Dracos]

Dracos kept his head down as the two upper level demons spoke to one another. As he stood he saw Lord Ea's grin of satisfaction and nodded slightly at the servant who bowed to him. Yes my Lord i will be awaiting your summons. Quickly Dracos made his way out of the shrines and headed straight for the portal

[Dialto]

Dialto entered the shrines, smiling slightly. He had recently leveled, and was very excited about it. He had spent a long time debating which Lord (or Lady) he wanted to serve. His original interest was water, but he had heard the Lord was rather lazy. That left him with Fire and Earth, since he had no interest in Wind. Eventually, he decided to go with Earth. He wasn't quite sure why, but he figured the ability to make flowers would be useful for charming women. He was a bit surprised when he found out that it was a Lady in charge of Earth, but he moved on from it. He knew, however, that he would have to watch himself in her presence. Xanth knows he loved women, but they seemed to think otherwise.

He approached the thrones and bowed down in front of the only woman. My Lady Kaia, I assume. He straightened, looking up at her. I would like to learn from you the ways of the Earth, if you will permit it. He bowed his head again, holding his hands behind his back. He didn't know what would happen next, though he hoped for a challenge. Nevertheless, he felt confident, and hoped it showed in his stance. He did everything he could, though, to keep from looking overly so.

[Dialto]

Dialto kept his head bowed as Lady Kaia sat. He watched out of the corner of his eye as she closed the book, carefully marking his place. Dialto loved books, but he was never so careful. He always just bent the corner of his books, making them worn very fast. When she came down the stairs, and obviously tilted her head to make eye contact, he raised his own to meet her gaze.

He listened carefully to her words. He didn't hesitate before answering. He knew even if he had second thoughts, it was too late. My Lady Kaia, I am completely sure of my choice. I only want to learn the ways of the earth. My Lady, my name is Dialto Amoreh, and I hope to be your newest student. He bowed his head again, but kept his eyes on Lady Kaia.

[Dialto]

Dialto straightened again, looking Lady Kaia in the eye. He put his hand in hers, and immediately he felt a tingling go up his arm. Quickly, the tingling turned to a pain, like a million little needles being stuck into his arm. He wanted to draw his arm back, but he knew he couldn't. Instead, he grimaced slightly, but held his hand there until the pain dissolved.

He suddenly felt... different somehow. He didn't really know how to describe it, but he felt stronger. When Lady Kaia spoke, he nodded. Yes, My Lady, he said softly. Confidently, he turned to leave the shrines. He didn't know exactly what she had just done to him, but he assumed it had something to do with his new element.

He pushed out the door, and suddenly felt like he should go... find a tree or something. He wandered off to do just that.

[Ilire]

Ilire reached a tenative hand toward the mysterious doorknob and let out a sigh of relief when he did not spontaneously combust, or a number of other undesirable things as it swung open to reveal a spacious room. The moment he had touched the ancient door, he had known exactly which Demon Lord he would bind himself to; whether it was an isolated case or not, the young demon (reluctantly) found himself amazed at the depths of their magicks. A sorting hat of sorts for the indecisive.

His chapped lips pulled back into a grimace as he wondered what his sister would think of his choice. Probably crow with delight. Ignoring the slight discomfort and anticipation that fluttered in his stomach, he dropped to one knee in a deep bow and pressed a hand to his chest. Ilire drew a deep breath.

"Lady Kaia, accept me into your service; whatever you ask of me, this humble servant will do. And besides," He smiled thinly. "how could you say no to such a pretty face?"

[Official NPC]

The Lady had been decorating the vines wrapping her two large wooden pillars with beautifully bright and sweet smelling flowers various shades of red and purple were her choice of the day. It had been quite awhile since Dialto had been given his gift and yet he still had not returned to her for his quest, and it had been quite awhile since any fledglings had entered the temple for binding to an element or for any of the other lords tasks. Even her own servants were out and about hardly returning to the temple unless she called to them.

Smiling when she heard the footsteps of a fledgling and feeling his aura she knew he wasn't yet bound to an element. She continued to work as the young demon spoke. Turning as his final words were spoken she was was a bit taken aback at the bravery of this young one. For some reason he reminded her of her own son. Walking over to him her deep green dress trailing behind her and her beautiful brown hair pulled back into a tight bun she smiled down at the young fledgling. "You know that earth is an element of beauty and it is a calm element unlike fire." Looking into his eyes she made sure to keep eye contact with him. " Are you certain you wish to bind yourself to me?"

[Ilire]

Lady Kaia strode over majestically to where he stood, and Ilire automatically lowered his head in reverence; the smirk disappearing off his face quickly. The lord seemed to command respect without uttering a word. Around her, earth flourished in all its natural beauty. He had never loved flowers - he would not pretend to, even in this powerful demoness' presence. What drew him to the element was a fierce desire towards the actual earth. Unbreakable stones and pressed dirt.

"You know that earth is an element of beauty and it is a calm element unlike fire. Are you certain you wish to bind yourself to me?"

Ilire bit his tongue for fear of angering the fire lord. Fire was...passionate, untameable and unstable in size, shape, and containment. There was no allure there. Earth was unmoveable, emotionless, and sturdy - everything he strived to become. He gave another quick bow before meeting Lady Kaia's eyes. Despite his dislike of the heated element, there was no denying the fire in his mis-matched eyes as he answered.

"I have never been more certain of any thing, Lady Kaia."

[Official NPC]

The young demon lowered his head even further in deep respect for the Lady the smiled this demon knew his place no matter how brave he may be to test her limits. she waited for him to speak for several minutes finally he bowed his head once more before speaking. "I have never been more certain of any thing, Lady Kaia" Nodding she took several steps back form the fledgling allowing him room to stand. "Very well then please stand..." realizing that the young fledgling had yet to give her a name she dove into his mind quickly retrieving the information ignoring all other thoughts. It was not a task she normally part took in but now was the time that she needed a name so that she may summon him when the need arose.

Placing a hand on his shoulder her deep forest green nails shimmering in the odd light. Speaking softly she looked at the Ilire "This will sting for a few moment Ilire." Soon he would feel the warm thriving life of his element creeping inside his body. Every where he would go the plants would seem to follow in his wake. On occasions there would be flowers and various other plant life sprouting behind him. Turning away from him she went back to her throne sitting lightly on the green cushions. "Go and learn to control your element. When you feel you have mastered all that you can return to me for your task." Picking up one of the many books on the round table next to her throne she opened it and soon became buried in it's tales.

[Dracos]

Dracos wasn't oblivious to the tone that the younger demon held, it was apparent that he didn't like Dracos. Shrugging to himself at his reply to his question of what this summons was about he cringed slightly at the dark mark on the demon's face. Luckily Dracos had been smart enough not to question Lord Ea to his face, nor had he ever gotten on his master's bad side. As the young Demon strode away, Dracos followed him eventually he reached the shrines. Pushing the heavy door open he left it open for the weak younger Demon.

Walking into the center of the large chamber Dracos looked around, it had been quite awhile since he had been here. The only reason he would come would be if he was summoned. Looking over himself he ensured that everything was in place, his armor was dulled from his working in it. His dual blades sat in their hilts, looking over to Raider he wasn't quite sure if Lord Ea would like a raven in his chambers. Stroking his feathers softly Dracos whistled a pitch, the bird took flight and left through the open chamber door. Inhaling softly Dracos proceeded to Lord Ea's shrine. Coming to a halt in front of his master Dracos knelt softly before him his head lowered in respect for the elderly demon. "You summoned me my Lord, how may I serve you?"

[Official NPC]

Lord Ea was not in a good mood. His servants seemed to get more and more inept with every passing day, he often wondered what happened to the good strong backboned Ifrit he had seen in the day. He had once been a servant, long ago, and what had he done? He had killed his master and taken his damn place, these demons could barely do the tasks HE assigned to them. He sat in his chair rubbing his head as the flames surrounding the throne kept any demons away from all but the supplicant position in front of him...he really didnt want to be bothered unless he was going to be lavished with praise.


He didn't hear the large door open, though he sensed his summoned servant approaching, still he didnt really care enough to look up or even acknowledge the demon's presence. He was probably doing something that would annoy him, all these pathetic wretches did, however strong this one was he was still not as strong as he should be, not as strong as his forebearers. A minute passed and he heard the demon speak from directly in front of him, it seemed Falil had at least been capable of one task


"You summoned me my Lord, how may I serve you"


The boy at least had his place right, My Lord, how may I serve you....perfect servant. Still Ea took his time in sititng up straight, he straightened his back against the chair to give added height above the demon kneeling below him. Looking down he smiled, not a kind fatherly smile, but the type a deer would likely see on a wolf before the hunt. He spoke making sure to throw his voice a little, he was feeling theatric today and besides, if he was going to torture this one he might as well let the other Lords know, especially that fat Nen.


" You took your time in getting here Dracos Panas, please tell me it was Falil's fault I would so love to roast him some more....though if you were just slow I could have just as much fun roasting you. "


He laughed, again not friendly. However he didn't give Dracos time to respond if indeed he had wanted to, thinking of Lord Nen earlier gave him an idea for how to torture him.


" I have a task for you, it is not a request and you will do it. I should like you to test your powers and bring me back the tails of TWO "


Ea held up two long thin fingers


" Adult Prenkayls....ADULT. Go and collect them, when you are done return here with them immediatly "


Lord Ea wanted to see how Dracos would respond to this, Prenkayl's were water creatures who lived in the Ao sea, strong ones too. For a fire demon of Draco's skill it would be intersting to see how he coped, if he did at all. If he failed then Lord Ea would torture him and get his amusement that way...it was a win-win situation like the ones Lord Ea was so good at creating.
