Snorting Faolin looked for a seat. He found one and sat. Silently he looked at the Queen he smiled charmingly as he had a habit of doing and stated, "Evening Queen Bellatrix I would have been here earlier but I was delayed by the face my King suddenly went missing." He grinned then sat back. He was relaxed as could be but ready to strike as quick as a cobra if need be. Was their a rule about being armed in the Queen's prescience? No one had said anything so he assumed it was safe his sword would stand up to any even those his King forged well exept maybe the sword he had made for this Queen. Foolish and somewhat understandable move. He kept his mind surrounded by a shield knowing these dark elementals had a thing for reading minds and he had no wish to have his open like a book for them.
Thalia began to walk down the hallway when she said told everyone she would return shortly. "The black market please," Thalia told him. It was a strange place for a queen of her kind to go to or even mention but the recipe for the potion asked for a few things that she could not find in the markets near her. She would normally send a messenger to go and get the ingredients but given the fact that she was already here she thought it was only best to get it. Thalia began to walk with Zelarous, she hoped it wouldn't be awkward since they got off on the wrong foot. "My apologies for starting off on the wrong foot," Thalia told him. It was hard for her to apologize but when she knew she did something wrong she admitted to her actions.Zelarous said:
Silently Faolin looked at his King waiting. He had no say in this because he wasn't the best in negotiations. His reply would have been you specialize in unique herbs we specialize in weapons how about we just pay for each others special items that are discounted for each other or just trade. However he didn't say this he sat silently as if thinking hands clasped.
Aermik cleared his throat stepping into the room, "If I may speak plainly, the answer is quite simple. We require you for your resources. Armor, weapons, gemstones, all of them will be necessary once we achieve victory." He said taking his spot beside his queen. "When we are victorious, our plans involve large amounts of monetary wealth. You would benefit greatly, to be sure, more so than any other nation." He said coughing, removing his apron and folding it over his arm. "Your kingdom has potential to be one of the wealthiest. Should our plans come to fruition then that potential shall be realized. In the meantime we will require weapons, armor, your forges, minerals, gemstones. Things I am sure that your kingdom would be able to spare."Raizel said:
[quote"Simply put? Manpower. Tireless, strong and resistant manpower. I require some workers for helping the blacksmiths at the Lava Forges. The undead would be treated as equals, and they would be a reliable force to help building such equipment in a short time. But I must ask, what do you want from the Fire Kingdom? I'm sure Orbis has a lot of assets that the Dark Kingdom would benefit greatly." Galandor stared at her eyes, his own amber eyes focused on them. He was gazing directly at the beautiful lilac eyes of the Queen, pondering his options, but also admiring her gaze. He turned to the Duke. "What do you think, Faolin? What else can we put at the table?"
Silently Faolin stood up and went to the chair. He softly moved it aside and looked at Queen Bellatrix. He looked at the child in front of him then stated, "I don't mean to contradict your orders your Majesty but punishment might not be the best way. Could I suggest making her someone's handmaiden and having to be a servant?" You could see he really didn't want the girl to be whipped or something like that. He then sat down and stated, "Sorry I just have bad memories." His father had beat him constantly it had changed Faolin for the wost for the longest time.
Softly Faolin replied, "It maybe her problem but I can't help giving advice to bad orders now can I?" He said this very softly so only his King would here. He shook his head. They didn't understand. He had this sense in him when someone needed protecting and he had sensed it in the girl. He suddenly winced in pain as a large cut appeared in his hand. Odd. He healed it quickly without a seconds thought must have been his clumsiness with the tip of his pommel. He sat down and closed his eyes thinking composed.
Silently Faolin looked at the Queen. For a second he looked into her eyes. He replied, "Forgive me Queen but I have an extra sense about me when people were in danger and it's in my nature to feel concern for those who cannot defend themselves if stating my concerns and suggesting things to avoid a person getting hurt is against the law then forgive me." He stood slowly then bowed to her and stated, "Besides it's in my best interest to make sure the next Queen lives to become one so sorry for speaking out of my power but when I feel I need to say something I say it regardless of what people might think or say. Now I will leave you two alone. I'll be waiting outside my King call me if you require my services or my ability to speak the truth as it is to me. With your leave Queen I shall go. Plus she seems to me like the type who normally doesn't break the rules then is drastic to herself when she does. Sorry I said to much again." He bowed in respect. He spoke all of this calmly and with great respect.
