Their coach rattle and rocked as they continued down the dirt path towards the city. Lini frowned slightly as she listened to Leander rattle off the facts about the Moon family and sighed softly. All of the information that he was giving her could be found out by any person that could read. It...

Lini raised an intrigued eyebrow at the look of utter digust on Leander's face. A smile spread across it, and a laugh escaped her lips. Of course Leander would never dirty himself by sitting on the dirt like a commoner. It wasn't becoming of the upper class to sully themselves by spending time...

The next couple of house went by in a blur for Lini. She noted Lee's tense face as he shoved things in bags and gave him a wide berth. She noticed that something was wrong with Hyacinth too, the blissful satisfaction on his face had soured into something much more withdrawn. She listened...

Hyacinth smiled slightly to himself as he saw Lini quickly shut his cupboard. He couldn't help but wonder why a woman like this was traveling with Lee. She was clearly high born by the way she snooped through his kitchen, and by her clothing. She hid it well, but he could tell that the clothes...

Hyacinth sighed deeply with content as he held Leander close to him. He realized that Lee was talking, but through the haze of pleasure, he couldn't quite focus on the words. His hand tingled with warmth as their fingers twined together. He had been so worried about Lee, wondering where he had...

Hya smiled politely, his teeth flashing in the light of the kitchen “Could you excuse Leander and I for just a second?” He asked, his voice had a deceptively sweet tone. He watched as Lini raised her eyebrows, then nodded, murmuring about freshening up. She stood and walked upstairs to the guest...

Hyacinth Adair was leaning against the cool wooden frame of the door. The inner lobby of the customs building was sweltering as usual, and today there wasn't enough to do to keep him engaged. His dark hair was beginning to stick to the sweat that was gently beading at his hairline. His eyes...

Lini swore as the carriage went tumbling around her, the world was skewed, and she had no idea what was going on. She braced herself for the sharp impact of her body hitting the ground, and suddenly she was standing on the side of the dirt road next to Leander. It took a moment for her to steady...

"My brother is in Straone." Lini tilted her head, trying to contain her surprise. It was weird to think that Leander had a brother, or much of a family either. It was weird to imagine him as a child, laughing, smiling. Something about Leander was so powerful, so ethereal, you'd have almost...

Lini watched him closely as he read his letter. She could feel another question bubbling up, but held it in watching the progression of his expressions instead. They were slight, almost minuscule twitches in the muscles on his face. They were twitches that conveyed a slight annoyance, a change...

She smiled at the rather furious flash across his features as he contemplated her question, but spurred onward by his silence she followed him down a path towards the fields outside of the town. As they wandered through the grasses, searching for something she couldn't tune her eyes through Lini...

Lini took his arm nervously, wanting to ask about the spell that he was performing but thought better of it. She felt a warmth and a surge of energy past her body and the whole home as they walked away was tinted in the gentlest of blue. She furrowed her brow at the sight wondering what the...

"She keeps asking if we're engaged and insisting that our children of quote 'mixed heritage' would be quite adorable, and it was kind of freaking me out." She pushed her locks back and secured them with a leather string to keep them out of her face. "I hate it when people start to insist on my...

Lini stared quietly around the house while holding the woman's hands. The walls were covered in paintings, and the cloth of the chairs they were sat upon were all expertly crafted. The woman obviously had plenty of money. She wondered why she was so suspicious of her neighbors. She gasped...

Lini raised her eyebrows at his use of the term friend. She wondered if Lee had ever had friends before, he seemed so stoic and professional. It seemed unnatural for someone in their twenties. But she kept silent and followed him and the woman into the house. It was beautifully decorated with...

Lini's eyes flashed open as she realized was on the floor. Bits and pieces of the mattress and the frame holding up the bed lay around her as if a small bomb had gone off. "Your idea of dawn and my own seem to be vastly different. Are these the only clothes you have? Lini, dear, that is no way...

Lini tried to control her reaction as Lee closed his notebook, but internally she was ecstatic. It looked like she had found someone who was at least going to put her in the right direction. Her happiness paused as she saw him reach for his cards. She didn't catch his murmured words, but reacted...

Before sitting Lini took a leather pouch out of her pocket, it was about the size of her fist and she set it on the table between them as she sat down in the chair gazing at him. She smiled slightly at his motions with the notebook, it really seemed as if he were genuinely open to helping her...

Biting back a sarcastic response to his comment about her powers she nodded, and closed her eyes. The magic around them dissipated and everything returned to a dark shadowy gray that it had been before. She followed him quickly through the woods to an inn she assumed he was staying in. The inn...

Lini felt her stomach squirm, she wasn't comfortable showing this part of her power. It had appeared randomly one day, as she had been training at home after her technician's exam. It frightened her, and she had been reluctant to use the full extent of her power since that time. "I'd have to...
