Lisa smiled and set her fork down. "I know its strange really considering the circumstances, but what I'm thankful for is Jezabelle bounced back so easily." Jezabelle's ear lowered a bit she wrote out; "It wasn't as easy as you think. You try taking a chance and changing your ways, believing in someone, only to have it destroyed in a second. I learned that even on paper my freedom is still questionable by someone who doesn't care to play by the rules. The only thing i do have is friends and family who look at me as such and search for me and care for me when i get lost or taken. "
Toole spoke up; "Jezabelle, I screwed up this morning, but I'm not backing down on what I said. You are family, and when someone takes a member of family. They are painfully aware of the consquences when we catch up to them."

Ive's eyes opened and she sat up, "I thought we took care of them? you mean that there are more people out there that are stupid enough to do slave trades in Arynia?"

Jezabelle sighed writing out on a fresh page; "You have no idea the scope of such a trade, what is worse is the ones who are paid in order to circumvent the anti slavery laws in some realms, and if the owner puts that pay in a trust account for education then the servant can only use it for that purpose. In other words you are stuck a paid slave with no access to your pay, and no time to educate yourself with what you do have saved. They keep it legal, and you stay too dumb to fight back or escape."

Ive gave a frustrated look and went back to her own world deep in the depths of her mind.
While Ailes snuggled up to Toole, "I'm gonna miss you..."

Toole was going to respond to Jezabelle, but took the hint in Ailes changing of the subject to not pursue the converstaion of slavery. He smiled snaking a arm around her waist and holding it their lightly.
"I will miss you too Ailes, the sunrises in the window will not be the same without your smile to warm my soul, and the emptyiness at night will make me worry about you."

Ailes smiled shyly, "Aww, you don't have to worry about me... I'll be safe. Just stay focused on what you have to do here, and don't forget to visit."

"I won't forget to visit, I'm curious by nature, and mor ethen likely will end up on your doorstep before you know it." Toole scooted his chair a bit closer to Ailes so his arm was a bit more comfortable.
Lisa and Jezabelle were talking away in a side conversation of their own.

Ailes laid her head on Toole's shoulder and was allowing herself to enjoy the moment. she let her eyes slip shut for only a moment, but had to struggle to get them back open. soon it was too much for her to take and she closed them taking a temporary snooze on Toole.

Toole smiled and used a free hand to enjoy his wine a bit. He tried to keep his movements small to not wake Ailes from her rest. Lisa stood up and keeping her voice down noticing Ailes sleeping; "I take my leave, I've still have allot more work waiting at home, and it was very nice of you to cook for us Roo." Roo bowed from her position at the kitchen door.
Tool simply nodded; "Take all the time you need to get your house back in order, we'll be okay, and i'll have a change ready for you when you return." "A change in what Toole;" Lisa looked confused that Toole would deviate from routine. Toole shook his head; "Nothing major, just going to cut your workload a bit, but we can discuss that later."
Lisa looked at him with questioning eyes, but she bowed again and left via the lounge doors.

The innocent dream Ailes was having seemed to flow without a hitch of pain, Toole was walking with her, and was saying everything right to make her happy. They crested a hill in the path and on the far side was a dragon much the size of tolly except her aura was white as the light that eminated from behind her.
She spoke with a soft voice that was not too loud, and it seemed to cover the distance and retain perfect clarity. "I haven't long before your sister's master discovers my presence, or your sister discovers it on her own. On the seventh full moon, when it is low, and veiled in red he will need you the most. His very life will depend on it, but speak nothing of this to him. I am breaking a great many rules being here, and I must go."
With that said the dragon vanished all together and the light was normal the path was empty in front of her.

Ailes sat up with half opened eyes and slightly messed up hair, "What the hell was..." she muttered still half asleep. she looked over at Toole, "What about some moon veiled in red?"

Toole let her go so she could set up properly. "I think you had a odd dream Ailes, the red moon has already passed by, it won't return for several weeks and we'll be in the rainy season then." Toole nodded and Roo spoke to the waiters, they began to clear the table, Jezabelle hopped to her feet to help, but slowly sank back into her chair remembering she wasn't supposed to do anything tonight except attend.

Ailes staggered out of her chair holding her head, "Tell me when this moon thing happens... i want to see it. it sounds pretty..." she swayed about as though she were dizzy and nearly collapsed but caught herself on the wall, "I think i need to get to bed..."

Toole rose out fo his chair quickly, the back of his knees caught the edge of the seat and caused it to flip onto its back with a loud crash.
He moved over and put an arm around her waist and with his other arm he moved her arm over his shoulders. "Alright, lets take you to bed, and don't worry about the red moon. I'll give plenty of notice before it happens, and probably come and get you."
Toole took her upstairs and set her ont he edge fo the bed before moving quickly to a closet and taking out a nightgown. He brought it over and set it beside Ailes. "Fell up to changing, or would you like me to assist?"

Ailes smiled, "I got it..." She stood up and grabbed the gown to go behind a changing curtain. her skirt fell to the ground then her shirt fell a little later, and just as she was slipping the nightgown over her head she fell over knocking the curtain down with her, "... I'm sorry!" she groaned in frustration as she struggled to make it back to her feet.
