T'lainya saw the stricken look on Darkpoets face and relented. She smiled reassuringly, "I believe you. Now quit trying to tease Dw, you're falling deeper into a hole every time you open your mouth."

Laughing, Dragon Wench grinned at T'lainya. Then she turned to Dark Poet and decided to put him out of his misery.
"It's okay, you were a perfect gentleman the whole time, I just couldn't resist teasing you."

Darkpoet knew he was beat, especially when Menadir started to laugh. He finished his wine, standing up, he bows to Dw and winks.
"If you all will excuse me, I need some rest."
Darkpoet leaves, going to his room. He hit the latch to panel, slipping in he closes the panel. He headed down to the pool, diving in, clothes and all.

Raising an eye at T'lainya, Dragon Wench winked. "
"You might want to follow him, I have this feeling that he could need you."

Tlainya had a wicked smile at Dws words. "Hot water always has that effect." Gracefully rising, T'lainya looked at her cousin and quickly whispered in elvish not to get himself run through. She nodded to the others and excused herself.

She slipped down the secret stairs and saw Dp swimming in the pool. Pausing to admire the way his wet clothes clung, she stepped forward.

Darkpoet started to slow down with the wet clothes, he pulled them off. He then swam over to the hot tub to relax. That's when he noticed T'lainya, watching him. As he climbed into the hotsprings tub.
"Is the steam to thick that you can't see me?" Darkpoet asked smiling.

T’lainya smiled and stepped out into the open. “Oh I can see very clearly” She slowly walked up the steps to the edge of the tub. She brushed back a thick green frond from a low hanging plant, inhaling the scent of the deep purple blossom. She smiled and her gown lay pooled where her feet had been, as she stepped into the water. Her hair was curling in long red tendrils around her back and shoulders. “I thought you might want this.” T’lainya smiled as she produced a tray with dinner for two.

Darkpoet moved to help T'lainya with the tray. Putting it on the side, he reached over the side of the pool. Lifting out a bottle of Elvin white wine, pulling out the cork and pouring two glasses.
"I thought, we might of needed a bottle of wine. Thank you for bringing dinner."

"Mmmm, wonderful." T'lainya tasted the wine appreciatively. She leaned back against the tub and raised her glass to Dp.

Darkpoet raised his glass to T'lainya.
"To your cousin, if it wasn't for him, sending you here. I don't think our paths would of crossed. I'm truely happy, he sent you here. To Menadir. To you also, for getting the demon out of my head."

"To Menadir then. May his pranks never get him killed. And to you, for reminding me that there are wonders in this realm also."

Darkpoet moved over next to T'lainya, touched his glass with hers. Looking at T'lainya, he smiled.

After T'lainya and Darkpoet, finished their dinner and soaking. T'lainya, went into the other room, to find anything on the earrings and necklace. Darkpoet, went back to get dry clothes and to return the tray to the kitchen. When he walked into the kitchen, Dw, Vivien, and Menadir were talking.
"Hello, so how many stories has he told you?"

Looking up at Dark Poet, Dragon Wench smirked. "Menadir is managing to keep himself out of trouble."

Darkpoet looked a Menadir, who had a innocent look on his face. Darkpoet shrugged his shoulders, he sat next to Vivien.
"Okay, T'lainya and I found some more hidden areas. About a couple of days ago, so I'm going to show you. It is unbelievable, we have reconized some of the culture carvings. So follow me."
Darkpoet, lead them to his room, he hit the switch. The wall swung inward, he lead them down the stairs. He stopped, so they could take in the fragrance of the plant life. Dw, walked forward, her eyes taking in everything. From the carvings, the waterfall, the pool and the hotsprings tub. She turned, looking at Darkpoet with an arched eyebrow. Not saying anything she walked forward. Vivien, went from plant to plant. Gently touching, each leaf, bud, and flower. Menadir elbowed Darkpoet, and whispered.
"Who does this place belong to?"
Darkpoet shook his head, "Kramor inherited it, but even he doesn't know."

Dragon Wench gazed at her suroundings in some amazement; she wondered just how many more hidden areas they would uncover. On an impulse she walked to the waterfall and stepped though it. Looking around, she gasped, numerous intricate pictographs adorned the walls behind the cascading water. In excitement, she poked her head out through the shimmering curtain, and motioned for the others to join her.

Darkpoet, saw that DW found the hallway, with the pictographs. When Vivien and Menadir, entered the hallway, they both stopped and stared. Darkpoet, followed them into the hallway.
"I have to get Kramor down here. He might know, who some of these people are. There are some Elvin pictographs also. Do any of you, have any ideas?"

T’lainya sat in a chair in front of a desk, carved in an intricate pattern of vines. She carefully examined the necklace they had found when the wraith was disintegrated. She compared it to the delicate earrings she had found. She held the earrings up, something about them pricking at her memory. She turned the delicate pieces over in her hands trying to remember. Her thoughts drifted back in time. She could almost smell the soft grass and the scent of hyacinths. The gentle sun was warming the glade, casting dappled shadows as it filtered through the leaves. The teachers voice speaking about hidden jewels of nature, holding the delicate spray of blossom up…

*ahem* When last we left Loner and Nippy......

Loner thought for a moment. "I need to see your master before we do anyhting. Can you take me to him?"

[ 08-14-2001: Message edited by: loner72 ]

"Seeing as we have been left alone (Hint, hint, wink wink ) I have no problems with that."

Nippy led Loner to the room that Hitomi was in, he motioned for her to sit on the chair near his bed while he roused his master with a cup of sweet tisane. He hoped that the counter-spells he had cast over Hitomi would work.

His heart leapt for joy when he saw Hitomi rouse.

"Hitomi, I have a friend who wises to speak with you."
