| Cryptosis Arami Thornstone Arami smiled satisfyingly as Aya drank the ale, hearing how much she enjoyed it. Gregor's Ale was also his favorite, he had known him for quite a long time now. He thought back proudly at his speak, though it was only natural for him, he loved the citizens of the Thornstone region. He finished up his cup of ale as well as he stroked her hair gently, though the music being a bit distracting and loud. "Are you tired honey? Should we rest for the day? I can get us one of the finest rooms here in just a second." He said smiled at her calmly though he was still very excited himself. |
| Serenity gave up, her aura slowly diminishing. She sat down on at door steps of a random building and put her head in hands and softly wept. (Alice and sora, I it's just you two) |
 |
| Cryptosis Arami Thornstone Arami smiled as Aya yawned cutely. "Well, we can take a walk in town if you'd like, but my parents live in the Thornstone section's capital, Rosenheart. The carriage ride there takes at least 6 hours, so we probably wouldn't be able to get there today." Arami stretched a bit himself as he noticed Aya asking his good friend Gregor a question. Gregor smiled brightly to Aya and then scratched his scruffy beard. "Are you saying you have currency from somewhere else? That's quite interesting my lady, you'll have to visit our one and only bank in Rosenheart to exchange that! If it's the currency of our upcoming queen it's bound to be traded very nicely!" He said enthusiastically as he took a sip from his drink. He looked over at Arami and smiled gently. "But if you're in need of money I'm sure Arami will lend you some, that fella is practically bathing in the stuff, just look at his pouch!" Gregor said as he pointed on the large pouch on Arami's belt, the same pouch Arami got the gem he gave Aya from. "And despite him carrying all that coin, not a single pocket thief has got a hand on it yet!" He said and laughed heartly. |
| Icarus began playing with her sword making small modifications where ever she can. "I wonder where their all at now..." she thought as she looked up |
| Cryptosis Arami Thornstone Gregor smiled at her. "Well, you're right on that one, he has won every single match he has participated in at the Arena, that fella sure can be scary in combat!" He said and winked. He happily accepted the tip money and thanked them for visiting the Inn, smiling just as brightly when they left as when they entered. Arami put his hand on Aya's shoulder. "I'm sorry, but I'm afraid we can't use that here Aya, we don't have proper roads to ride on, it's rather bumpy and hilly. There's only one actual road in Cryptosis, and that was built before the war, it's not available for use anymore. I also think the citizens would become quite frightened to see a machine such as that, so I think we'd be better off taking a carriage. If we jump on one now we'll be at Rosenheart when we wake up." He said seriously but gently. He pointed over at the horse stalls further down the road, in the still rather crowded streets. |
| Dark Alley Devina Devina looked around the room again and then walked towards the stairs looking down them to see if she could see anything. She could see the floor below but no specifics other than shape. She felt a little uneasy about what may be down there but also a bit curios as her adventurous side told her to go down and check it out. She turned back to Saya. "I kinda want to go look at the same time it makes me a bit nervous. Do you want to go look? I'm not sure if I should follow my curiosity or be cautious at this point." Devina looked back down feeling a little conflicted but waited for Saya to reply. |
| Saya The darkness around the room was a bit eerie and it made Saya uneasy but nonetheless it brought out a big curiosity as well, "Let's take a look... but let's be cautious about it" she said taking a step forward and staring into the dark that enveloped the room downstairs, it was really a mystery whether them heading downstairs would end up in a good way or a bad one. |
| @LoliNinjaa Cryptosis Arami Thornstone As the sun was starting to rise the carriage stopped, the driver smiling at the still sleeping couple. He would usually rush them out of the cart, but as it was the the prince and upcoming princess he felt honor and happiness by giving them the ride, and wanted to show respect. From the carriage you could see the massive city of Rosenheart, a giant city of stone buildings, decorated with brass and gold. The outside of the city was very busy with traders selling supplies and and people moving in and out of the massive gate, a light fog was present. A tall tower was next to the gate with gards overlooking the area. In the middle of the city, on a giant hill, The Great Thornstone Royal Castle was standing up strong, highly defended from thieves and evildoers. A giant clocktower could also be seen, showing the Cryptosis time scale, controlled by The Grand Clock- and Weathermaster living on top of The Mountain of Cryptosis. Arami woke up and looked around him, smiling too see Aya still sleeping soundly. He stepped out of the carriage and stretched, bathing in the beautiful morning light and air. He handed the carriage driver some coin and told him to wait for Aya to wake up. He then made his way over to the group of traders and travellers in the busy gravel-yard in front of the gate. He grabbed his mace and held it up to the air. "Greetings, people of Rosenheart!" The giant crowd turned to see if what they heard was true. As in Hotekro a massive chatter started climbing. "I am sure all of you know my intentions here in Rosenheart today! I ask each and every one of you to spread the word of the prince's arrival!" He said with a giant smile as the crowd cheered. He put his mace back on his belt again and greeted the travelers warmly. He was really happy to be home here in Rosenheart. He took a sip of some spicy wine a traveller offered and springed full of energy, ready for the day. He then ran down to Aya again to see if she had awoken from all the chatter, feeding the horse a carrot. |
| Cryptosis Arami Thornstone Arami smiled when Aya came out, and he happily kissed her. He looked at her for a bit. "Yes we indeed have, this is the city I was born and raised in, truly the place I call home, it feels so nice to be back! I know almost everybody here, there's a lot of different types, nice people, evil people, weird people... I would say it's one of the most interesting cities in Cryptosis!" He quickly smelled his armpit. "Would you like to go down with me to the river and bathe? It would be best if we arrived nice and clean there, and I know a really good spot to bathe in." He pointed over at a bridge a little further away. "We can bathe safely under that bridge, and the water is really hot there, it must be some sort of hot spring or something. My sister and I always used to bathe there when we were younger." He smiled warmly at her. |
| Cryptosis Arami Thornstone Arami went down into the water with Aya, letting the hot water embrace his body. The nice shade from the bridge brought a relaxing atmosphere. There were even some colorful fish swimming along the very slow stream passing them. He enjoyed Aya washing him a lot, he was just sitting there gleefully as she poured water over him. When she asked him a question he smiled. [color=purple]"Well, my family is very big, I have 8 brothers and 5 sisters. My father's name is Juvaros and my mother's is Alena. So Juvaros Thornstone and Alena Thornstone. My elder sister I was talking about's name is Kilira Thornstone, she really helped raise me when I was little since my parent's were busy all the time. Now she's the highest ranking officer in the City guard, so she's usually very busy, but I'm sure she'll be there to greet me. There's also one more person of note I would like to tell you about, one my brothers of name Fenrar is a foul type, if you meet him just leave again, his been caught trying to poison my father multiple times, and he would probably be banished if it wasn't for mother. But as I said, there's a lot of people, I can tell you all about them all some other time.[/ color] He said and smiled at her, still relaxing. |
| @LoliNinjaa Cryptosis Arami Thornstone Arami watched Aya as she was drying, enchanted by her beauty as always, especially with all the Cryptonian nature sorrounding her, he couldn't help but feel exceedingly happy. As he was dry himself he put on his undersuit and armor and kissed her deeply on the mouth before putting on his helmet once again. "If you say so, dear mistress..." He said and grinned behind his helmet as he took a light grip of her, carrying her easily in his arms. He walked up from the river bank, jogging over to the gate guard. The gate guard smiled and bowed respectfully to Arami before opening the massive steel gate for them. Arami walked in happily as he saw the giant marketplace unfold before them, to the right side the Travellers Tavern could be seen. The marketplace was rather crowded in the morning as many people were buying supplies. A huge fountain could be seen in the middle, a statue of the first Thornstone to conquer the lands, their godfather, Rosenheart Thornstone. The city was named after him, and the greatness of is was a symbol to his. The people on the marketplace had all been notified of Arami's return and came to greet him. He smiled and sat Aya down on the side of the fountain as he greeted the people, a huge crowd quickly gathering. As it was still early in the morning people were full of energy for a new day. "Greetings people of Rosenheart, it's indeed nice to see you all again!" The people cheered and started talking, many of them looking at Aya, to see if she was a beautiful as Arami had been telling. Arami went over to an old crippled man stuggling to get through the crowd to see him. "Well who do we have here!? Good morning to you Gnaw!" Gnaw held his hand to his chest relieved. "Oh... thank god, I was scared that my life would pass before your return..." he said in an old and crippled voice. "I wouldn't just leave you like that Gnaw, don't you worry! When I once get children I'll make sure to tell them plenty of stories about you, you'll be honorful even in death!" He said with a smile. Gnaw looked relieved once more as he accepted the embrace from Arami with glee. Arami stood up again. "Well citizens, I don't have time to chat with every single one of you today, Aya and I have something very important to take care of! Let's catch up some other time!" The crowded cheered loudly, so those who were asleep were now peaking out from their windows, even them living several layers above. Arami carried Aya once more, kissing her on the cheek. He walked up a side street leading upwards. "Now that's taken care off, the castle is just a bit further." Now you could see the massive hill, made so you could only reach up there by the heavily guarded stairs, the rest was surrounded by a large wall. They were standing in the Royal Courtyard, the center of Rosenheart. Not many people were there at this hour, and Arami put Aya down again. "Let me have a talk with the guards quickly." He said as he started walking over to the gate, leaving Aya on a bench near the South-Western Courtyard Entry. |
| Cryptosis Arami Thornstone Arami walked up to the two guards standing in front of the gate carefully guarding it, there were also several guards towers all the way around on the sides of the courtyard, the area was very protected from anyone and anything. Arami took his helmet off to confirm it was him, and the guards bowed honorfully. "Good morning there gentlemen, I would like to grant that girl over there permanent entry to The Royal Castle." He said as he pointed over at Aya. "And I don't want you to check her." The guards bowed understandingly and opened the gate for Arami. He went over and picked up Aya again, smiling. "Well, let's go then, no need to be nervous!" He said as started walking in the gate and up the stairs to the castle. |

| Dark Alley Devina Devina excited quickly went down the stairs shinning her phone light around the room. From here she could see shelves of jars with thing inside of them and old pictures hanging along the walls. Luka waking up at the movement of Devina going down the steps, poked he head out of her bag and looked around trying to figure out where they were. The puppy in her arms barked at something making Devina jump back at the sudden noise. Devina jumping ran into a shelf behind her causing it to rock and a wooden box from the very top fell hitting the ground |
| Cryptosis Arami Thornstone Arami felt his heartbeat quicken and his stomach tingling, he was so happy she liked the place, and the fact she was so full of happy emotions, he still felt just as majorly in love as when they met. Arami walked up the stairs still carrying her, eventually reaching the massive double door with royal maces as handles, the maces were made of solid gold and gems of varius size, with all the spikes made of giant crimson colored gems. He opened the doors and stepped in, greeted by a nicely comfy atmosphere, a stone flooring with a nicely crimson red carpet working as pathways from where to go. Mysterious brown plants in beautiful pots fit very well into the atmosphere, as they were greeted by a nice, warm and comforting fire. The fireplace was in the middle in the back end of the starting room, with stairs to each side of it, leading up further into the castle. To the right there was the kitchen, the place where the best cooks in the whole of the Thornstone section were brewing stew and smoking meat, baking cinnamon pies, it smelled very nicely from there. To the left was a huge hall with a music and dancing room, and a giant window to view the city. Both the kitchen and hall lead to more places, as the castle had a lot of rooms, and you would easily get lost there if you didn't know where to go. Arami put Aya down again. "Welcome to The Royal Castle, honey! This is where I live, and I absolutely love this place! Do you want to explore it a bit? Maybe get some food, go to the bathroom? Have a nap? We're in no rush so just tell me if there's anything you need to do. My father and mother are very busy today and will only be home at dinner." He smiled happily, overlooking the entrance hall. |

Prime numbers are numbers that can only be divided by one and itself. They give me strength Zippers in place: 0/3 (0.0m Total) From all of Inori's talking it was easy to make out where she was, and he walked over to her. His footsteps were silent, as he technically wasn't walking on anything, and there was nothing for the sound to rebound from. Walking up to her and touching her on the shoulder he finally spoke. "Watch where you're going, you wouldn't want to wander too far in here. Then you may definitely get lost. As for your questions, Well, i need good awareness of the space in the world to determine where to get out, we're not going to be trapped even if we do get lost, as I can always make a new zipper to get us out, It leads to wherever you walk and I already explained why it's dark in here." he said in a semi-serious monotoned voice. making sure to get his point across that getting lost in here without Antoine to let you out was basically a death sentence. There was no way to escape and no way to tell where you were. As a result, antoine was always weary about bring people into the black space between his zippers. |
 |
| Inori She jumped a little when she felt a hand on her shoulder. "Ah.. Hahaha... You're right.. Sorry about that.... I guess I'm just a little freaked out because of how dark it is....." She fidgeted a little. "Um, could I hold onto your sleeve? I just want to make sure I don't get lost.... I mean I'm not saying I'd wander off! But it would be more reassuring if I had a hold on what can get me out of here...." |

Prime numbers are numbers that can only be divided by one and itself. They give me strength Zippers in place: 0/3 (0.0m Total) "Sure, that's not a problem. I can understand that being in a foreign place like this with no light would make you feel uneasy." He laughed quietly and took a few steps forward before stopping. "If I'm not mistaken, this would be the equivalent of the front door of the Staff lounge. Now is there any where you'd like to go specifically miss?" He asked her, turning to her and realising that it was a useless gesture as neither of them could tell where the other was besides that of physical touch and sound. |
|
| Inori "Ah, thanks!" She held onto his sleeve like her life depended on it. Because based off of his explanation, her life really did depend on it. "Well... Maybe we could go someplace with computers? So... Maybe the library? I mean if that's ok with you!" |
| [/center] |
| Cryptosis Arami Thornstone Arami went into the kitchen with Aya, smiling at how estastically she ate the cinnamon roll, he couldn't help but feel immense joy, and it seemed to be the same for the cooks as well. "Glad you like it! We have plenty of sweets and cakes here in the kitchen, the Thornstone's love it, despite their looks! Hahaha!" said the cook with the big belly, as he handed Aya a plate of honey, chocolate and vanilla cookies, all baked perfectly. He also gave Aya a sack of sweet caramels. "We have to admit, we're a bit busy currently, but you can take this plate and sack, and hopefully that'll do for now!" Arami nodded firmly. "That's allright gentleman, thank you for the sweets!" Arami went out the kitchen with Aya and looked at her happily. "I have to go sort out some paperwork upstairs, can you wait down here? You can sit in living room right next to the hall room or go to the dining room on the further end of the living room. The toilets are to the right when you enter the hall. I'll be back in 30 short minutes!" |
| Cryptosis Arami Thornstone Arami kissed Aya back and left, looking back and smiling to see her sitting on a couch in the living room. He really hoped she'd love the place as much as she did. He was also hoping she might explore a bit, though he was a bit scared she'd get lost, and even maybe run into Fenrar... He moved quietly up the stairs, not meeting anyone all the way up to his room. He locked himself into his room and stretched, he was already slightly tired. After 40 minutes he was still doing paperwork, there had been a lot more than he thought. He really wanted to get back to Aya as quickly as it could, but this sort of stuff couldn't wait for too long, especially since he was back home anyway. |
| Cryptosis Arami Thornstone After an hour had passed Arami quickly rushed down to the living room. He could see the plate of cookies finished and smiled, seemed like she had decided to explore after all. He started thinking about where she could've went. Most likely not up the stairs, that could be a quite intimidating area for someone new. He started walking up the walkways, and eventually spotted her lying curled up in the garden. It made sense to him, since she seemed to like the nature in Cryptosis a lot. He went outside into the garden and took in the fresh air, as always he loved the air in Cryptosis, especially the one in the garden as it had a small sweet tone to it. Kind of a bit like how Aya smelled. He went over to her and laid beside her, putting his arms under his head and looking up in the sky. It had just passed noon and would soon be the hottest time of day. He took off his armor and undersuit fully, and lied naked in the grass. He put his undersuit ontop of his junk, so he wouldn't embarrass or offend the maid's cleaning the castle, if they decided to look out in the garden. After a little bit he entered a state of light sleep, he was tired after all. |
| Dark Alley Icarus yawned as she laid down "This is so boring" she said to herself deciding to take a nap |
| Cryptosis Arami Thornstone Arami rushed up leaving him completely naked. "Ah yes, it's about that time already, seems like we both fell asleep!" He kissed her deeply and put on his undersuit, still having not even noticed we was naked in front of her. He put on his armor once again and shaked life into his limbs. "Dinner should be in 5 minutes, let's head over to the dining hall, I'll introduce you!" He said as he took her hand and grinned. He started walking towards the dining hall. (My next post will be them entering and Arami introducing ^^) |
| Saya Saya followed after Devina which seemed a bit too excited at the idea of exploring the lower level of an abandoned building which was completely dark, she went slowly trying not to trip with anything or maybe all also to keep her calm. This didn't last long though when a sudden bark resounded in the basement and Saya jumped in surprise like Devina did but she didn't bump against anything, she just let out a small scream at the sound of the box hitting the floor. With a blushing face she turned to look at the thing that was in the ground, she would never let out that sound around others but this time really caught her by surprise and she couldn't help it. "Wh-what is that?" she asked curiously walking up slowly towards the object in the ground. |
| Dark Alley Devina Devina taking a breath in to calm her nerves walked over to the box that had fallen from the shelf that she had bumped into. Some of the wood had broken off and splintered so she tried to be cautious when moving the pieces to see what was inside. "Some sort of little wooden chest I think. I must of knocked it off or something when I jumped back." Devina feeling something cold and metal like pulled it out and into the little light they had. "A skeleton key? " She questioned looking at the little key she had that fit in the palm of her hand. It was a strange place to keep a key and she wondered what it might have lead to. |
| Dark Alley Saya She looked at the broken wooden box in the floor and wondered what would've been kept in such a box until Devina moved the broken pieces of wood aside and brought out a key with a skeleton head shape in it's end. "That's a weird thing to be in a place like this, is this some sort of dungeon or what?" Saya said out loud looking at it and remembering how in games there would usually be keys like this to unlock boss rooms or that kind of things. Everything that had been happening felt a bit strange up till now, like the dark alleys that they ran through, the dog that appeared out of nowhere and this whole abandoned building. |
| Dark Alley Devina "This is all a bit strange. I wonder what this goes too. I mean I don't see any other doors down here. Devina pet the puppies head hoping to keep him quiet and not bark again as she took small steps to look around a bit more. It all looked the same to her. Shelves with dirty dust jars with who knows what and cobwebs hanging and sticking to things. "Do you see anything else around here that could be a clue to something?" Devina called out behind a few shelves being careful not to touch anything |
| Cryptosis Arami Thornstone Arami could smell the foods aswell. "Yeah, they are indeed talented, that's why they're hired to work here. We pay them lots of coin so they should be very motivated to work! Haha!" He said and laughed heartedly. "I'm also very happy you came here with me, I'm really glad you like the place... I don't know what I would've done if you hated it..." He grabbed her and kissed with her a bit until a big door opened. It was Arami's big sister, Kilira. She was wearing chainmail armor, with a leather belt and black stockings. She was rather thin, but had a strong look to her, her face had a strong look. It was pretty obvious to see she was a Thornstone. Her hair was set up in a pony tail. As she saw Arami a huge smile appeared, from the normally rather hard and tough face. Arami was filled with joy as well as they hugged tightly. "Ah, it's been a bit too long, hasn't it sis?!" Kilira laughed warmly. "It indeed has Arami, we've been missing you so much here, me especially! It's so good to have you back! I heard you brought a girl so I had to drop everything I had planned to come meet you two, it's important for me to see!" Kilira looked over at Aya, looking a bit grumpily at her, trying to analyse what kind of person she was. She wasn't really that fond of girls trying to seduce Arami, she knew how easily he could be fooled once in a while. She whispered into his ear. "She doesn't look that strong, does she?" she said a bit skeptical. |
| Dark Alley Saya It really was strange finding a key in a abandoned place like this, it made Saya wonder what exactly did this key open or where that lock might be. She carefully walked around the dark basement guided by her phones light searching for anything else that might be note worthy, the only things in this basement where dusty books, boxes, and some glass jars filled with something that she couldn't really tell what it was. "No, I don't see anything out of the ordinary" she said through one of the cases. The atmosphere still seemed weird which made her slightly have some goosebumps, maybe it was just cold down here. |

Prime numbers are numbers that can only be divided by one and itself. They give me strength Zippers in place: 0/3 (0.0m Total) "The library... The library" He tapped his chin, thinking of where the library would be from their current position Leading Inori onward, in a seemingly random bunch of directions, turning one way and back the other until finally he stopped. "This should be the wall at the base of the steps to the library." He concluded, he scratched his head going over his steps once more. Once he was content that he went the right way he nodded his head to himself and looked at Inori, which was a useless gesture once more. He wasn't used to having someone in side this space with him. As such he wasn't fully accustomed to the futility of making gestures and such. "Should we step out?" He asked her politely, ready to create a zipper once she was ready. |
|
| Inori She nodded. After a minute she remembered he couldn't see that nod and answered out loud. "Yes please!" |

I zipper forming in mid air, he pulled it open and light flooded in from the tear in space. Blinding him momentarily, Antoine blinked fiercely fighting back at the blinding light. As His eyes adjusted he opened the zipper more and more until it was wide enough for them to walk through. In front of them was a flight of stairs and a corridor. Just as Antoine had described to them, the sign read "Library" pointing up the stairs. Looks like Antoine's knowledge of the school grounds was yet to be faulted. |
|
| Inori She did as he instructed and closed her eyes. She followed him out of the zipper with her eyes still shut. After a minute or so, she slowly opened her eyes a peek. After adjusting to the light again, she blinked and looked around, the amazement she felt was clearly shown on her face. "That's... That's amazing!!! We're here!!! The library!!! I can't... Oh wow, this is just incredible!!" |
| [/center] |
| Dark Alley Devina "Well if there isn't anything else that's here maybe we should go ahead and head back to the school. This place is starting to get rather creepy and eerie all of a sudden to me. Feels almost like someone is watching me from somewhere." Devina shivered a bit as she continued looking around making sure they hadn't missed anything out of the ordinary other that it being eerie walking around in an unknown dark basement. "Maybe we can come back during the day when it isn't late and pitch black dark down here. I also want to know what this key is to. I think i'll hold on to it for now." Devina headed back to the steps and stopped to make sure Saya was still with her. |
| Cryptosis Arami Thornstone Kilira brushed herself off. "Hmm, interesting, but that doesn't seem especially useful very often." Kilira grinned. "And you're saying my body isn't very different from yours? That's laughable." Kilira took her hand as Arami looked a little concerned at the two of them. "Well, nice to meet you Aya, my name is Kilira Thornstone, pleasure to meet you." She squeezed her hand extra tightly before standing back, looking at Arami. "Yeah, me and Aya are here today to ask permission to be married, I'm sure Aya will be able to impress father." He said and smiled, though he was a little bit worried about how Juvaros would treat Aya. Kilira grinned for herself, she really wanted to see how this random woman would prove worth to be with her Arami. |
