Janelle felt the tensing of Arcaeus' muscles even on the small pads of her fingers. She touched his mind, nestling in gently in an effort to keep him from startling. His mind held bricks against her, though subsided enough for her to speak,<span style="font-style: italic">I apologize for unnerving you, that wasn't my intention</span>she smiled and out loud she said, "I have an important meeting to attend to. Would you mind waiting for me?" Her voice was soothing, and towards him sounded sincere in the want for him to wait. He seemed taken aback, he rubbed the back of his neck, and pushed his hands through his already messy hair and let out a small sigh, "Sure." She smiled at his response and grabbed him tighter by the hand, turning to led him and they broke into a comfortable stride. She said, "I don't think I will be long, but we will have to go up to the third tier." And as they walked each was silent, her thoughts for the walk being on the meeting ahead as well as the environment around her. As they made it to the higher tiers the townsfolk changed; the women were dressed in extravagant dresses, bright colors with hour glass figures from the corset who glided at they walked. Many held umbrellas, to shield from the sun rays, while other held onto the arms of properly dressed men who held canes and wore tall hats on top of their groomed heads. Janelle led Arcaeus to a large white brick building with pillars across the front, holding up a roofed sitting area. The doorway leading in held an arch and across the tops crown molding decorated the building, a dome sitting on the top. Once they approached she stopped, Arcaeus following her lead, "Ok. I have to go in. I shouldn't be long so I'll see you soon ok?" She tilted her head making sure she would be seeing him. He shrugged and nodded his head, a bit of disinterest filled his aura. She turned away from him and made her way into the building, her walk swift and her golden hair bouncing as she walked.<br/><br/>She noticed her male companion Fraener immediately. His hair was as dark as coal, his eyes a bright green. He was wearing a tight shirt and his muscles protruded under his shirt as well as his arm muscles, easily seen. He was her expected mate and as she made it through the hallway and their hands touched and minds touched slightly and they walked together into the larger room within the middle of the building. The room was shaped as an oval, corresponding with the dome at the top of the building. Within the room were two other creatures waiting along a large table for them to arrive. Fraener took a seat though Janelle stood next to her seat, her face stern and she spoke, "Ok, I'm here. What is it that you want?" She addressed to the two 'male humans' in the room.<br/>The smaller of the two responded a tremble in his voice, "We need your protection....protection from the dragons I mean. As you know, with the expansion and progression of technology across these lands our races are dwindling." He looked at his companion, "The humans are getting smarter and pushing us out..."<br/>Janelle's face was annoyed as she shot her hand forward in a stopping motion, discontinuing the man's talking. After the presence of silence she barked out, "We can give you a large amount of land to live in, land that cannot be touched by the humans. But I'm not about to send my dragons to babysit a bunch of weak trolls." Silence followed, with a slight nod from the creatures in front of her. She looked at them and at her companion, "Are we done here?" She waited, "Yes? Ok then. I will send dragons to help with...this situation. For now I will be leaving." Fraener stood up quickly and they marched out, whispering words of annoyance and laughter to each other telepathically. They stopped near the archway entrance facing each other. Their goodbyes were short and light-hearted, a light kiss on the top of her head was given and she whispered for his flight to be safe. And with that they proceeded on their separate ways. She took a deep breath and made her way outside and approached Arcaeus, who's back was to her. She tapped his shoulder, giving him a tired smile, "Hi again."
