Theres still herbal forests nearby, right?

"Of course there is, we have just about every type of herb ever growing here" Charlene said, a slight hint of being offended showing on her face

"Okay." She grinned again. "Yeah- I can agree with that." She sat back down in her chair and Tye went over to sniff Kody's familiar.

Aspen quietly continued to drink his tea, unusually calm by the alarming news that had just been delivered to him. Lily on the other hand was sitting quietly, her eyes showing shock but her body still. She was not unhappy about this, simply shocked, confused, she felt as though the news had been sprung on them and didn't know how to handle it.

Thats good, she said, as her familiar brushed up against her

"Hey, can I pet your familiar?" Kody asked, pretending to sip from an empty cup of tea. "Master Xaphira, I've finished my tea, I'm going to show Roux to her room if that's alright" Kody asked his mentor, who nodded in approval

"Sure." She said, nodding to Xaphira as well as she stood. Tye, as if hearing himself being mention, purred and weaved around Roux's feet before heading toward Kody. He stood up to Roux's hip and was very catlike.

"Ok, so other than the mansion and the herbs, what else is there?" Avalynn asked, "Is there an open field around here to practice magic or was I suppose to bring a book for while we're waiting?"

"Aww, good kitty, squishy baby" Kody bent down, cooing to the tiger-like familiar as he scratched behind its ears. "Keiki is in my room, probably sleeping... or eating my underwear again" Kody said with a slight laugh. "Anyways, I'll show you to your room now, follow me" Kody offered Roux, motioning for her to follow

Tye purred, enjoying the pampering as Roux rolled her eyes. "I really didn't need to know about the underwear thing." She chuckled and then followed him.
