Cena spun through the water racing through the water, her hair flowing behind her. "That sounds like a brilliant idea Yara!" She was pumped for the day, ready to find a pet crab that would fill her home with happiness. Upon the statement of the jewels, Cena began chattering about which jewels would suit both of them. It didn't take much time before the two of them reached one of the floating islands. Yara had been right, there was jewels sparkling on the ocean floor, and up above was the reflection of something much mightier.
After Zynoa had left, Nora had felt as if life had become lonesome, even if it had only been a certain amount of hours it was still lonely. Kassis was busy tutoring his students, thinking about it she knew that even if she approached Kassis right now, it wouldn't be a good idea. Not after their little night out. Knowing that the best thing for her to do was find Kadin, she headed towards the school's garden, the door that Kadin showed her was where she would most likely find him anyways, especially since he told her that's where he normally was. Nora had just entered the school garden when one of the school's guards approached her. It was then that she realized she was still in her tattered clothes, looking muddy, and that she had been missing, and her guard knocked out. She knew she was going to be in trouble the moment she saw the guard, so her first response was one that was still in her childish ways. She turned away from the guard and began running in the general direction of the forest. Without thinking she blurted out the first words that happened to pop into her brain, "KASSIS!" Realizing what she said she screamed a second time, "KADIN!" By now she knew that the guard was angry and that she was most likely going to be in trouble.

Flair soon fell asleep as the sunlight warmed him through. Dreaming of peaceful times in the past his sighs matched the gentle crashing of waves on the shore.
Yara was a fan of sparkly objects so talking about jewels could keep her entertained for ages. Once the two mermaid approached the islands she saw the gem stones glittering on the seafloor. "Ah, we should be able to fetch a good price for these if we grab a few while searching for a crab."
A clawed hand reached out and grabbed the guard's shoulder. "i'd prefer if you ceased drawing attention to this situation. I will deal with Miss Nora myself." Kadin had seen Nora from across the garden and seen the exchange between her and the knight. Wishing not to have either his or Nora's reputation damaged he grabbed Nora roughly by the arm, his claws digging into her slightly. Storming towards his room he yanked Nora inside ahead of hi and slammed the door. His eyes almost seemed to burn and hot as a real fire that day. Anyone could tell he was angry from the way he moved. "Where have you been? After what you pulled you deserve to lose your title you know." he released her arm realizing he had drawn blood. "My apologies it seems i was too rough."

Agreeing to what Yara suggested, Cena motioned for Yara to follow as they dove to the ocean floor. There were hundreds of jewels just lying on the floor, okay maybe not hundreds but to a mermaid, jewels could be exaggerated.
Nora had been stopped dead in her tracks when a fierce claw had grabbed her shoulder. She had practically been dragged across the garden until the two of them, apparently the second being Kadin slammed the door shocking her into realization of what was going on. She hadn't even felt the pain from where blood had dripped slightly, she still didn't feel it, not with the adrenaline that was rushing through her body. "It's nothing, honestly." She searched for the flowers that had been in her bag. She eventually found them, pulling out flowers that had now wilted and changed colour. "I just wanted to find some flowers." She stuttered. "If it wouldn't have been for Kassis, I wouldn't be here right now." After hearing Kadin apologize for being too rough she laughed. "Apologies? You don't even know how to apologize, you don't even care that you drew blood. For all I know you meant to do that." She was really enraged with him speaking of her title. "I do not deserve to lose my title Mister KA-DIN" she emphasized each syllable. "At least I don't wish to hurt my fellow peers let alone a future husband." She paused before catching her breath so she could yell one more thing in her face. "You're no better than the Rebel Alliance." Nora spit on his floor. She knew that the last part wasn't necessary but she wanted to say it either way. She stood tall, staring into Kadin's eyes, waiting to see what he'd do next.

"lets gather a bunch and lay them out on he beach to dry, then we can decide what we'd like to take." Grabbing two handfuls of gems Yara swam to the surface and pulled herself onto the rocky shore. The island was small, probably only fifty feet wide and covered in plants. To her dismay on the island, curled up in the grass doze a familiar face. Though to be fair he seem a lot less gruff when sleeping. The familiar face of course was Flair who was still deeply into his nap.
Kadin laughed. "don't deserve to lose your title? how spoiled are you Nora? You disobeyed direct orders to not leave your room. You even injured a poor guard who was just doing her job." He locked eyes with Nora, this was not a fight he was going to back down from. "Perhaps i don't understand relationships like some. But for someone who claims to not like hurting her peers you seem to not have much respect for that guard." This woman made his insides boil, how would he be able to marry someone with such a childish sense of self.

Agreeing to Yara's idea, Cena picked some jewels, stopping when she stumbled across a tiny little yellow crab. "Hey Yara!" When she looked up she noticed that Yara was already above water. She grabbed the tiny crab and swam to the surface with the jewels. "Hey Yara! Look I found a crab!" She shouted loudly.
"Ka-diiin" Nora whined. "I don't understand why I shouldn't be allowed to leave my room, what's going to happen? What's going to happen to me?" She decided she should try and regain her composure. "Spoiled? I for one do not think I am spoiled. I help out quite a lot around this place. And about the guard, you probably don't even know her name, her name is Annaria. A-n-nar-i-a." She pronounced the name for him. Thinking about what he said about respect she sighed. "Maybe I could have more respect for the guard if I was given one who actually wishes to get to know me better, how do you think it feels to just have someone standing there, she didn't even try to speak to me. I felt as if I was ripped from my privilege of speaking to people. It was as if she didn't even like me. Can't they give me a guard like Rishu?"

Yara clapped her hand over Cena's mouth and hissed at her to be quiet "shhhhhh, don't yell so loudly." yet he shushing was in vain for it seemed that Cena's shout had already awakened the beast.
Flair who suddenly was rudely awakened by an idiot yelling opened one of his vibrant pink eyes. "Hey you, can't you see i'm trying to sleep here!" he growled before he actually laid eyes on the speaker. "And here i though i'd steer clear of mermaids if i was this far from the shore."
"Miaos forbid you be robbed of speaking privileges." Kadin rubbed a hand over his face. Raising an eyebrow he was surprised Nora had no clue about why she was being told to stay in her room. "I thought you would have heard that the rebel's raids have been growing much more common these past months. Guards have been posted outside of the doors of powerful mages to make sure they stay safe. Speaking of which i doubt you even tried to start up a conversation with Annaria in the first place. It seems a few knights find you slightly unnerving." Half of that statement was true, the fact that the rebels had grown stronger recently. But Kadin had requested the knights to guard Nora himself. He knew she was one to sneak out at night, he had often seen her sneaking about the school grounds when they were younger. Of course there was no way he was going to tell her the real reason the guard had been posted outside her door.

Cena pried Yara's hand off her mouth and was about to blow her anger out when she looked up and focused on someone, who wasn't just someone to her, because it was Flair. "Well maybe you shouldn't sleep by a gold mine." She took one of her gems and threw it at Flair's face. "hmph." Cena started laughing, "Is someone still in pain? Didn't Onyx tell you to take it easy?"
"Nobody tells me anything around here, how was I supposed to know that some rebel group was aiming at destroying powerful mages like me?" She fluttered her eyelashes before hugging herself. She was interrupted from her self righteous feelings when Kadin had said that knights found her slightly unnerving. "Oh, how can I be unnerving? I am not unnerving. Okay, no I didn't start a conversation with Annaria because she didn't really seem like she wanted to talk." She leaned into Kadin's ear and whispered "She must be on her you know what." Just at that moment Callie walked through the door. "Miss Nora!" She shouted unhappily, "I was informed by a certain guard that you had been found wearing unsightly clothes." Nora leaned away from Kadin awkwardly. "Oh, there's nothing to worry about Callie." Callie, who was quite unsatisfied with Nora's reaction grabbed her hand and stared at Kadin before scowling. "I mean really, if you're supposed to be her husband don't you think instead of scolding her and drawing blood you would give her a bath and massage her? You're going to need some lessons from someone if you're going to be a proper match for Miss Nora." Callie continued pulling Nora, who currently was just allowing herself to be dragged away by Callie who was a 16 year old girl. "There's a bath prepared for you, and I went through a lot of trouble just to get Annaria to be your guard again, you have no idea what you have done, do you?" Her voice kept trailing on as Nora was pulled away from Kadin. With her one last final attempt as she was dragged through the door she turned her head and stuck her tongue out at Kadin. Callie had seen through the corner of her eye what Nora had done and slightly laughed. "Miss Nora, you've ought to grow up a little too if you wish to have a child with that guy. Can't have little kids running around sticking tongues out at guards and running away in the middle of the night now can we?"

Flair pinned his ears back and sat up. "Its bad manners to throw things and injured people you know. humph the bed at the inn was uncomfortable so i decided to sleep outside in the the sunshine. Sunlight help me heal faster anyway." He was an earth dragon after all so it made sense that sunlight would make him feel better. "What are you two doing here anyway?" he got to his feet and walked over to the shore and sat down carefully to study the gems. "Nothing here will fetch you much, they're too flawed." He held up a green and blue gem that almost matched his scales. "though some crafts men might just like them because of the colours."
Kadin just grunted in reply to Nora and Callie chewing him out. No wonder she acted like a spoiled brat. She had that child acting like her maid. Turning he stormed down into his study and through open a old leather bound book, slamming it onto the table. "damn that girl!"
"Lovers quarrel huh Kadin? Warming up to Nora it seems." A gentle yet teasing voice sounded from the back of the room. A charcoal dragonoid girl with flame red hair and dark red eyes sat on the top of the latter that was set up by one of the book shelves. She wore flowing flame red clothing that went perfectly with her slightly wavy hair. Despite her high ranking look her expression was kind, though held presence that was enough to know this girl should be taken seriously.
Kadin looked up surprised to hear another voice. "Oh Ozarra it's just you. I though you weren't going to visit until next week." He leafed through the book in front of him.
Ozarra climbed down the latter and set a large cloth bag on the table. "That was the plan, but mom overheard me mention that you were going to be married to a girl at the school so she sent me with some gifts for her. Though judging from you're current mood it seems i arrived at the wrong time." She laughed and passed a smaller package to Kadin. "i was able to get my hands on the herbs you asked for though. Two ember lilies from in the mountain."

"bad manners? Huh, I'll show you bad manners." Cena grunted at what Flair had said. Upon Flair telling them that the gems weren't much she became upset. "And what do you know about these gems? Why won't they sell? It's not like you sell things for a living." Cena looked towards Yara hoping for an answer.
Nora grunted at Callie's response, however she may not have shown it but she really loved Callie's company. Staring down at her clothes as she was dragged by Callie she realized that yes, she did look unsightly. "Miss Nora, honestly you have to come to realize that Kadin isn't that bed." Callie continued trudging through the path finally reaching the school doors. "Sure he may have a temper but he's going to be your husband. You've ought to at least try and get to know him better." They had finally reached Nora's large room, which had Annaria posted at the door. Callie whispered into Nora's ear, "now at least try and talk to her after." Frustrated, Nora forced a smile towards Annaria who was shocked by the random kindness of the person she was guarding. Callie pulled Nora into the bathroom and looked Nora up and then down. "Take your clothes off!" Callie yelled pointing at Nora and then towards the bathtub. "The water is still hot, and there's fresh bubbles. By the time I'm back with your new clothes I expect you to be in the tub." Callie turned and left the room shutting the door behind her. Nora was completely shocked, she quickly stripped her dirty tattered clothes off and jumped in the tub. Her body felt relaxed in the warm water. The bubbles popped around her fur creating tiny pops that she enjoyed.
In the other room Callie had just finished unpacking the new clothes she had bought using Nora's funds for clothes, she had decided that it was high time Nora had some decent proper clothes that showed her title. She walked up to Annaria and showed them to her, "how's these look?" Annaria took in a great gasp. "Miss Nora won't even look like her after she's got those on." She giggled a bit, "Hopefully she'll act that way too." The two of them laughed for a bit before Callie headed back to the bathroom. "Miss Nora, your clothes will be wonderful. But first, let's get you washed up." Callie began squirting the herbal scented soap type liquid that was all natural just as the bubbles were naturally made. The soap smelled of roses and lavender. She massaged it into Nora's scalp before finally rinsing it off and getting Nora to wash her body of all the dirt. It wasn't long before Nora was completely clean and sparkly. It was then at that moment that Callie pulled out the new clothes for Nora. "See? These are perfect!" They had the school's symbol on the loose silk belt that went around her waist, it was a light golden coloured dress with the belt purple and it was laced up in the back with black thread and in the front there was black lace with a black bow. The dress went all the way down to her knees, from which her legs had black boots that went up to just below the knees, the boots had golden lace with a purple bow. It was a matching outfit. She also had a golden bow with one purple gem sitting in the middle of the bow. It was after much struggle that Callie finally managed to get the outfit on Nora. "Callie! There's no way I can wear this!" She shouted. And at that moment Annaria came rushing in to see what was wrong, upon seeing Nora's face she began laughing. "Why you!" Nora squealed chasing after Annaria who ran out the door, the two ran through her large room chasing one another until Callie came in shouting "That's enough Miss Nora! You're going to wreck the new outfit."

Flair gave Cena a 'are you serious?' Sort of look when she asked him how he knew about the gems. "Well when it comes to gems dragons generally know the most. It is a main part of our economy after all."
Yara stiffled laughter. Cena's question was basically like questioning a mermaid about why they knew so much about seaweed.
Kadin's mood lightened right away. "Ah, thanks Ozarra. It's quite hard to come across these in Esmela."

"Well nobody ever told me that. Why," Cena was looking at Yara again, "Did you know about this? That dragons sold gems?" Cena tackled Yara. "How dare you not tell me?!" Cena was laughing as she pushed her friend into the water and sat back up to look at Flair. "Pardon the intrusion Mister Fire Gem, but did it ever cross your mind that you're in my gem searching area. Where I found my little baby yellow crab?" Cena stuck her tongue out.
Annaria stiffened when Callie came in shouting. Nora even stiffened, so much that she sighed. "Callie what am I supposed to do in this?" Nora spoke to which Callie responded, "You did a number on Kadin, I think you ought to go and apologize to your future husband." Nora laughed a bit, her? Apologize? Callie went to the kitchen, and walked back into the room with a pie. "I baked this earlier on while I was waiting for you. I had planned to eat it with you, but it seems your relationship needs it more." Nora protested but was soon pushed out of the door by Callie who then proceeded to push Annaria out, "Annaria, you better keep watch of her. Make sure nothing happens to her." Annaria nodded as the two were pushed out, heading to the garden which was close by. It didn't take long before the two had reached the door to Kadins. Nora was about to walk right in when Annaria grabbed her wrist and pulled her back, frustrated with her. "Didn't anyone ever teach you manners?" Annaria grunted before walking to the door herself and knocking.

Flair huffed, this argument was pointless. "Well don't let my presence stop you, if you return to looking for your crab I'll return to sleeping." He lay back down and shut his eyes.
Yara smirked. "Isn't it a commonly known fact that dragons mine gems? That's were the best ones come from after all."
Ozarra upon hearing the door hurried towards the entrance. "I'll get it." She told Kadin as she rushed past him. Opening the door she met eyes with Nora. "Oh hello, is there something you wished to ask Kadin?" She clasped her hands lightly behind her back.

"Well, I wasn't taught that ever." Cena frowned, getting up and leaning against the warm hot sand she poked Flair's nostril. "I thought it would be hot."
Before Annaria could do anything, Nora barged past her shouting out loud "Move out of my way, I don't got no time for you." Nora continued walking as Annaria came through the door, "Besides who are you exactly? Kadin's secret admirer?"

Flair opened one of his eyes and pinned his ears back hissing. "What are you doing?" He swatted her hand away gently. "Do you usually go around poking your figure up people's noses?"
Ozarra stumbled backwards against the wall. "Excuse me miss but you shouldn't just barge into others houses. And no, I'm actually his little sister."
Kadin hearing the scuffle in the door way walked over and peered up the stairs. Growling slightly he crossed his arms. "What do you want Nora?"

Cena blushed, "No..." She began laughing, "I just wanted to see if dragons really breathed fire." She sighed before explaining to him her reason. "I was never taught that dragons sold gems or mined them, but I was taught that dragons nostrils are hot because they can breathe fire. However yours was cold, so I guess dragons don't actually breathe fire."
Nora looked at Kadin before looking down at the pie, holding it outwards, "Pie." Nora was stunned at what she had just heard come out of the girls mouth. Annaria walked further in, she bowed to Ozarra, "I'm sorry miss, what's your name? I'm sure Nora didn't mean to, she's just, a little out of practice with her manners." Annaria turned to Kadin, she was now beginning to understand why many people thought Nora was well, unnerving. "Sorry Kadin, er Mr. Kadin, what Nora really meant to say was, she wants your forgiveness and wanted to talk it over with pie, she had come prepared to say that, but you know after finding out that she-" Annaria pointed to Ozarra and then whispered in Kadin's ear "is your sister" she leaned back again, "she became well let's say, shocked and embarrassed."
