Tatsu, Ashleigh & Ainsleigh

Ashleigh was close enough to Pine that she reached out for him, but then the other draeyl hugged him and got him out of range. It wasn't the end of the world though, she was still with the da male.

"So yer the one we need ta talk to!" Tatsu said to get Spruce's attention. He wasn't being angry or defensive like earlier. Every creature deserved a fair shake and Spruce wasn't Pine, so he had a chance not to mess up.

Ainsleigh came alongside her mate with Blue and company in tow. "Do you mind if we settle our babes before ye do? Perhaps Guardian can look in on them while we are touring?"

"I think it's best we see to the children's needs first." Nina said looking at Apollo with concern then looked back at the guardian and the draeyl. She was a little bit less nervous knowing she might not be alone. Nina was concerned for all of the hatchlings but especially Apollo since Friy wasn't much of a danger.

Blue Nodded In agreement, She trusted this Vulynx though they had not spoken much. " Thank you.." she said flattening her ears. she couldn't lie she was quite nervous to leave them so soon, but she didn't have much choice.

Tomen smiled and dipped his head to thank Guardian before trotting behind Tatsu being sure to steer clear of his tail. " C'mon Blue they will be here when we get back..." he called over his shoulder knowing she didn't want to leave. He couldn't really blame her he wanted to stay too, but they had a job to do, and there was no way for him to get it done without Blues sharp mind.

Blue turned and trotted behind the others clearing her head of worry, she knew that she would have to be on top of her game if they were going to get through this. when she caught up she addressed Spruce " So before we begin I would like to know about the test you intend for us to take..."

Blue glanced at Tomen slightly concerned. he cant use his forbidden spells.... not here anyway. she thought, though to be honest she was highly impressed by his magic when he did use it.

Tomen Piped up a bit " is there any rules or regulations to this test we should be aware of?" he asked trotting along beside Blue now.

Tomen nodded and re-positioned his wings nervously. he knew that telling all his spells was not an option, but he could easily leave those few out. What worried him more was being placed away from Blue, though he was capable of handling himself he could be forced into a situation that required him to use one of his less forgiving spells...

Blue Could see Tomen thinking quite hard about something and bumped his shoulder " Hey... Cut that out you have smoke coming from your ears.." she said with a chuckle. He was right to be concerned, but it was nothing to fret over just yet.

Tomen joked along with her " yeah I would hate to give away our position" he chuckled relaxing a bit. She was right he shouldn't think so hard about it they still had time.
