Nebb 11-25-2008 12:25 AM<br/>"I'm fine Lady Cutra, just fine thank you for asking." he said with the faintest of smiles. His green eyes studying hers for a moment before continuing: "Since I have already disturbed your meditation, would you mind walking with me?"<br/><br/>Motioning for her to lead the way, he walked along side her staring at the ground before him. A frown formed on his forehead as he contemplated his words: "I was eager to inquire whether you may have discerned any fresh details relating to the new Prince or perhaps any reasons behind this meeting. Boasting two Princes in a such a short time is surely not unheard of, but itâ€™s also not something that occurs very often either.â€<br/><br/>Crossing his arms, he continued, this time looking directly into her eyes as he spoke: â€œThe instability that has occurred over the past few months is not beneficial and may soon even attract unwanted attention. Violence between the Vampires and Werewolves will only escalate unless strong leaders can secure their positions and control their subordinates. I donâ€™t have the benefit of seeing the future, but if this new Prince cannot bring about that control, and I sincerely hope he can; then I believe the possibility of a hard line approach should be discussed.â€<br/><br/>braioch8201 11-25-2008 06:39 AM<br/>{ok, seems like it all got switched around...*shrug*}<br/><br/>Memnoch swept through the hallways of the compound, the elaborate marble designs and hanging chandiliers seemed a bit much to him, but seemed oh so fitting considering the previous Prince. The other vampires that crossed his path created a wide berth for him to walk through, it seemed to him that the fear of his name was well spread, no matter.<br/><br/>Strolling up the stairs, twisting and turning through more hallways he reached the reception area. A new scent flooded his senses as he walked, his gaze turned towards the Vampire that seemed to be nervously pacing the reception area. His gaze narrowed as he watched the woman, but continued on, opening the doors to the "throne room."<br/><br/>"Enoch," he drawled out, "you realize you have someone waiting for you?"<br/><br/>***************************<br/><br/>Enoch glanced up at the entering vampire and sighed, he wondered when he was going to finally show his face since he disappeared the night before.<br/><br/>He nodded, "I'm quite aware as a matter of fact I was about to let her in, God knows what she wants right now, but we're about to find out."<br/><br/>He knew they didn't have a whole lot of time, but he was going to see what the newcomer wanted. Leaning forward he pushed the intercom button, "Sean, let our guest in please."<br/><br/>Ladypuppet 11-25-2008 11:38 AM<br/>*Cutra looked over at Rowan and stood up streaching as she looked over him. Her feelings were mixed about Dherris, feeling betrayal that he had just left her with out saying good bye. She knew full that Dherris wasn't the one to stay with one person just over a random fling. She could you say be a one night stand. She wasn't expecting to see the man again.*<br/><br/>*She sighed heavily, and nodded.* "I'm glad that your doing well Rowan. It has been a long time since we have last spoken or seen one another." *She leaned on the table to gain her balance again. She closed her eyes and gave out a deep held breath. Looking she nodded slightly at Rowans request.*<br/><br/>"Aye, I will walk with you Rowan, since you did indeed intruppet my meditation." *She pushed off the table and stood up and shuddered soflty, having a bad feeling. Maybe calling this meeting was a mistake, what if somethig happened like it had before. Looking over at him she took what he had said into deep consideration.*<br/><br/>"I belive what you said is right but the council can do so much. And it seem that secret society knows to much about the supernaturals, and the mages. We need to band together, and help each other not fight amoung each other. This only leads to more bloodshed and death." *Cutra walked forward and spoke again lowly this time heading for the doors needing fresh air the confrence through her meditation had not go will with the elders of the ghostly mages. Shaking her head at him slightly.* "I do not know what this new prince may boast or may do, I have yet to meet him. So I have yet to observe what he may bring. Seeing that the old prince only cuased decit and more fights. Maybe he is what is truely here to end the war between the werewolves and the vampires. My concren is the werewolves rampages on the humans, its getting out of control they want revenge. The question remains if they will attack the mages, considering we are human as well." *She left him to ponder over what she had posed, and wondered of his opion she waited as she left the building and took a breath of fresh air, and shook her head trying to get the smell of Dherris and his image out of her head. Why was it so hard for her to push him away like she had did so many others.*<br/><br/>Nebb 11-26-2008 02:18 PM<br/>Ariel got the feeling that someone was watching her and cut her gait mid stride to turn and face the onlooker. Turning she caught only a glimpse of a very powerful looking vampire entering the Princeâ€™s â€˜throne roomâ€™. It wasnâ€™t his large bulky shoulders, or even his forceful demeanor that gave her the impression he was powerful, not that that in itself didnâ€™t speak volumes. Noâ€¦ it was the feeling she got deep within herself as she laid eyes on him. The beast within her began to stir, aroused by a beast more powerful than her own. The sensation would have ordinarily made her pulse rush, if she had one. Even so, she could feel her blood begin to boil, the Beastâ€™s need to satisfy its lust for destruction. She smiled to herself. â€œJust how strong you are big boyâ€¦â€<br/><br/>This wasnâ€™t her scene, and socializing certainly wasnâ€™t what she had been trained to do. But seeing someone who she could not yet best, gave her a feeling of defiance, the strength she needed to regain control of the Beast. She thought back to something her Sire had told her: â€œThe Beast is power. You can control it, but you cannot contain it.â€<br/><br/>She almost laughed out loud when she realized that for the second time that evening she had dwelled on the past: â€œI never knew I was so sentimentalâ€¦â€<br/>An underling approached her: â€œThe Prince will see you now."<br/>She smiled: â€œThank you.â€<br/><br/>Leaving her suitcase where it was, she entered the Princeâ€™s â€œthrone roomâ€.<br/>Bowing her head and eye's downward, she recited what she had been practicing while pacing the last few minutes: â€œGood evening Prince Enoch. I am Ari'eil Nashiram. I seek permission to remain in your city. And I wish to make it home.â€<br/><br/>She looked up for a moment, to see if the message had been delivered effectively, and once again she felt the Beast begin to writhe.<br/><br/>braioch8201 11-26-2008 04:57 PM<br/>"Memnoch, keep yourself in check..." Enoch murmured as the woman walked into the room, Memnoch only gave a half shrug and turned towards the window, gazing out it.<br/><br/>Enoch's brow perked up as the woman stood before them.<br/><br/><br/>â€œGood evening Prince Enoch. I am Ari'eil Nashiram. I seek permission to remain in your city. And I wish to make it home.â€<br/><br/>Enoch's eyebrows threatened to shoot upwards but they didn't as he listened to the rehearsed sounding line. He sat back in his chair, his hands close together, fingertips touching each other.<br/><br/>He sighed finally, it seemed that this new rush of vampires into the city was proving to be neverending. Whether or not it would prove to be auspicious had yet to be shown, he'd yet to hear from Romstrahd as it was.<br/><br/>"Your request comes at a...turbulent time. If I were to consider your request there would be a few...requirements. First not only do I need to know why you left wherever you came from, but why you chose this place. Second I will need to have your undying devotion to my lead, and will acknowledge it as such as obeying whatever I lay down as law. Finally you are obliged to know that you have come in at a time when the city is besieged by chaos, so take that into your considerations..."<br/><br/>Memnoch snorted to himself, he didn't understand why Enoch was dealing with all of these inane and asinine things. Plus Memnoch could sense the bloodlust pouring from the girl, and it had him intrigued, perhaps she mihgt have a us after all.
