Dance

[King]

Vincent nodded and tugged lightly on his goatee, "As I expected, neither of you have any idea of the outside world."

Vesta looked at him and sighed, she shook his head, "It's always like this Vincent...you know that."

The sorcerer sighed, his expression suddenly sad, "And so many are lost...", Vincent shook his head and smiled once more, "I would like the both of you to journey with me, once your time has come."

[Lunar]

For once, Solari looked up at Vincent. Eyes widened in shock. "Travel? With you?"

Quiet, eyes still wide. Her mind was racing. Would her parents allow it? Would she learn new things? This would be a wonderful expierence though. Her head was now down, eyes staring at the ground.

Her voice was hopeful as she looked back up. Her shyness melting away. "Sir, would you teach me things about the world outside of here? And.. Well.. Would you be able to teach me to read?"








(Question, can people still speak correctly but not know how to read?)

[King]

OOC: Of course you can speak well. Illiteracy was very common in the oldentimes, but it doesn't mean illiterite people can't speak well. We generally learn to speak by listening to our parents.

I'll wait for Lady to post next.

[Lunar]

Ooc: Ahhhh! Very interesting. I wish it were olden times then I could outright carry some type of weapon... I shall wait with you then..

Raphyn took a moment to conciter his options. If he took this man's offer, then he'd look weak and dumb. However, he knew that if he refused, then he'd be out on his own in a world he knew nothing about. It was a fact he hated to admit to himself, and one he would never admit to someone else. He looked to Solari. Well, at least he wouldn't be alone incase this Vincent turned out to be some madman. "Well, I guess I could go with. After all, it's not like I have any other plans." I don't even have my parents he though, a bit more bitterly than he realized. Sure, he was never close to his parents, but sometimes, maybe, he wished he was.

[King]

Vincent nodded his consent and pulled his hood up, "Excellent. I will begin your tutoring immediately, Solari. Every day, after your dance, we shall meet. There is much you both must know, history, people, magic..." he waved his hands expressively.

Suddenly his left hand burst into flame, his skin turning a deep red as the golden-orange fires moved and snapped about his digits. He shook his hand hastily and the fires flickered out, "I apologize. My exitement got the best of me."

He bowed slightly to the dancers and Vesta, than turned about and began his departure for the day.

[Lunar]

Solari smiled, one that reached her eyes. She'd get to learn new things. What joy! But then. What about her parents? They'll her go for sure. She knows that. But.. She'd feel just a bit guilty for leaving them. But her parents will be traveling as well. So there is not much there.

"Thank you sir," Solari bowed slightly. Very respectful to her elders. She wasn't shy much now. Quite odd indeed. But finally she'll learn of things other than dancing.

She turned to look at Raphyn, ignoring Vesta completely. "Won't it be fun Raphyn? We get to travel with a Sorceror!"

[LadyChaotic]

He couldn't help it: he smiled as Solari did. "I hope so," he said, half-jokingly. He looked to the magician. "Uhm, thanks, I guess." It wasn't something easy to say, but he had to admit he was greatful to the man. After all, he was well aware that most Dancers don't live long.

"Ahem," came a voice from behind. Thedre stood, holding a burlap bag in one fist. He walked past the Dancers, giving a knowing look to both. "So, you're the Vincent whom Vesta worships so much." It was not said in a rude tone, he was meerly stating a fact. Vesta, Thedre's sister-in-law, blushed as he said that.

[LadyChaotic]

((Lunar, should I send you (over PM or OOC here) a description of how the ceremony goes, including the outfits? I was thinking that the Dance could take place soon.))

[Lunar]

((PM? We can surprise the others. For the ceremony, would all the character come to watch?))


Solari was now quiet as Thedre came. She did a little bow to him. She was taught to be respectful to all elders even if she did despise them.

Vesta looked a Thedre. "He's worth worshipping Thedre," she snapped. Her eyes traveled to the two dancers. "I suppose we should begin on the dance they both must do?"
