"Yes...yes we shall."
[b]Tesuto walks the child over to a large side building.[/b]
"These will be the sleeping quarters. You'll find many rooms...absent."

[b]Her eyes narrow at you before she speaks again.[/b] Why?
-
"Well you see, the people here normally don't stay for long. They have...other things to do."
-
Honestly, I don't think it's possible to get a straight answer out of you... [b]She sighed.[/b] What [i]other things[/i]?
-
"Well. Death."
-
See? That's all it is. A simple word, yet it causes even the mightiest of men to trouble to say it. Lost souls going to a better place than this. Why is it a bad thing?
-
"Well...I'm sorry but I like to talk to children...easier."
-
Hm. [b]The girl crosses her arms and pouts. Clearly she was somewhat upset by that statement. Either way, she pouting forward.[/b] Onwards!
-
"Ah. Alright then." [b]Tesuto shows her around the courtyard. Stopping by a large statue.[/b] "Have you heard the tale of the Phoenix...?"
-
"The" should not be used. The general idea of a Phoenix is its fall and rise from the ashes of its deceased corpse. I like crows better.
-
"Hehe. Because they are scavengers? Or because when you look at them the wrong way, they will get their friends to attack you...?"
-
[b]The girl answered your question quite simply.[/b] Because, sir, crows don't die in the first place.

"Ha! You are wise for your age. Treasure that. Now, this shall bring an end to the tour. You are free to do as you like. But stay within the walls! We would not want your father to be upset and not see you here."
-
Humph. Well thanks anyway. Is there anything here to keep me occupied? Books? Fights? Magazines? Zorhens?
-
"Zorhens?"
-
Chickens, but with... Lion heads, and Gertan claws. Duh! [b]She laughs before wiping a year from her eye.[/b]
