The room the two had entered was definitely a buzz ...as many in the room was still attempting to take care of Matters of the State and it was obvious that all around them everyone else was moving to do differently.  Carlito was pulled away from her side as there seemed to be some sort of dispute going on from his choice in Bethonia going from the Archarians.<br/><br/>The other man had a worried look in his brow and was using his hands ..smacking one against the other as he tried to get the Prince to see his side of things. Carlito smiled and put his hand on the man's shoulder tapping it .<strong>" I understand your concern Maxium ...but sending out a party of warriors and then declaring we are on a peaceful mission is not the way to do things. Besides Bethonia is well adept in using that bow of hers and her upfront combat skills are not that weak either...she knows how to use her body to get in close if she needs to. A crisp mind ...if they are captured it will take more than brawn to get away. That and the woman wants to go. It is up to her ...yes I placed her name into the hat and the rest agreed to it . A danger exists to all of them but the task is one that should be praised. Start supporting her instead of acting as if she is not capable ..if your worried about it. Spend the next few days strengthening the woman ..or I will toss your ass in a cell in the dungeon . "</strong>as the Princes face changed with the last part of the sentence spoken and he glared at the man. The other man looked at the Prince realizing he was serious swallowed and then backed up and bowed to him . Turning he hurried away . Part of the room had grown a bit quiet ..a few of the Priests of the mist had seemed to move forward from the sidelines.<br/><br/>Evelyna had turned and moved towards Phera ... the hand outstretched ..<strong>" Awhhh I hear a congratulations are in order ...you are the one who I was told was coming with the abundant supply of gee-pah ...your most proficient I am told. "</strong>as the woman's face let go of the tension of earlier<strong>.." Do you have any suggestions on how to transport  the flower on its journey ?  Please come ...let me introduce you to the other Master craftsman. " </strong>Evelyna looked over the beautiful necklace as she took the woman's arm then glancing over at Carlito as she had caught the strain on his last words. Knowing that she herself had put up members of their nation and yes the possibility was that none sent would return. Guilt flooded her now in her request to send just some common village person ..god they could have no training at all on how to defend themselves. A look crossed her face of deep worry.<br/><br/>Carlito moved over to one of the Priests of the Mist and spoke to her<strong>..." Round up the chosen ones ...if this is an example of how some of the people are going to act ...then we need to separate them. I want Krandall, Radella , Gunthur  and Bethonia brought to the castle at once. Send it out as an order ...and make a place for the wolf pack that Gunthur will be bringing . Do not take NO for an answer. "  </strong><br/><br/>The Priest tilted her head<strong>.." I believe many of them are already on the grounds ..but .." </strong><br/><br/><strong>" There will be no buts ...if some are already here then your task shall be easier. Take whomever is needed to round up the rest . I can almost guarantee that Gunthur is still in the Northwest  Outpost grumbling about having to leave his hidey hole ...Knock the man out if you have to and drag his large ass here. "</strong>as the Prince stared at the woman looking into those pitch black eyes of hers as if he feared her not . A smile crossed the Priest of the Mists face as she backed up a step and bowed to him . Turning she left the room .. motioning and gathering another of her sisters to join her.<br/><br/>The Master Craftsmen would all of course bow to Phera as Evelyna introduced them , taking the beautiful woman's hand in theirs and placing a kiss upon it . Praising her for her work in the gathering of the great find . Each seemed genuine ..as glasses of drink were being placed in everyone hand now . Time for work was closing ..and time for great joy and merriment was to begin . A few comments on the beautiful necklace ..the one who made it in fact smiled .<strong>" When I made that beautiful necklace ..I had no idea it would adorn such a lovely neck my child ...I do believe it managed to get to its proper place. " </strong><br/><br/><br/>Carlito had thus joined back up with the group and placed his hand at the mid section of Phera's back smiling and watching her face.<strong>" Of course Arthur ...I have an eye for beauty ...and she needed to be rewarded for her great accomplishment ...I am just waiting for Evelyna to out do me . " </strong><br/><br/>Evelyna looked over at Carlito .. and laughter spilled from her .<strong>" Ohhh I can most definitely out do you ...Carlito ..I live to do that . "  </strong><br/><br/><strong>" Good , Phera will be joining us for the festivities and treated like Royalty ..I am sure you can give her plenty of gifts to ensure she does not feel out of place. Maybe a beautiful green emerald ball gown to show off that necklace ..or would silver be better. " </strong>as he wrinkled his nose . Carlito was not sure himself .<strong>" We are having a giant dancing thing right ..." </strong>as he leaned in and whispered in Phera's ear<strong>." I promise not to step on your feet too much. " </strong><br/><br/>A woman looked over at Phera<strong>.." I shall take care of the fine garments for the woman ...how many do you wish to ...well she can have her choice of 3 of my best garments ..I have brought a load up to the castle anyways ..."</strong>Looking at Evelyna .The two women seemed to exchange a knowing look .. as the woman continued .<strong> " Awwhh settled then ..and my heart sings out to have our gowns worn .. the more the merrier ..indeed a smile of the face of a woman that turns and sways ..showing off the beauty of the natural body. "</strong>as she kissed her fingers and tossed them into the air<strong>.." What I live for ..." </strong><br/><br/>The group as a whole began to laugh and the mood of all seemed to lighten up as the beginning of the weekend feast and merriment was at hand . The Awakening ceremony with the children ... the Lottery to be drawn ...the Kingdom was indeed joyous on a whole over everything that was to come.<br/><br/><br/>
