"What is it, Sophia?" Michael said as he drank his coffee.
Michael entered the inn and saw Cliff and Sophia. "Just leave her be for now, her soul is still recovering from the attack. Besides, you really think she will tell you anything?" He sat down at the bar. "Another coffee, barkeep."
"Come to thank me, I suppose....don't worry about it. Just stop following me." Michael walked outside.
"Give me some coffee, barkeep. Black." "Sure, here you go." Michael drank the coffee. "Kai's still asleep, but I wonder where the others are at..."
"Wait, My liege!" "What is it?" "You may need this." Utaros handed Michael a small medal. "That is the royal seal. Anyone seeing you with it on will recognize you as the ruler of all keldon." "Thanks. I don't think I will need it, but I will hold on to it. Until we meet again." Utaros bowed to Michael and went to rejoin the other elders. Michael went bach to the inn. "The sun is already rising...." Michael yawned.
Michael slammed his fists on the table. "Silence, all of you! Now listen to me, this change is going to be for the better. However, first we must rebuild Villgust. Gather all able-bodied keldon and begin reconstruction." "But what of you, my liege?" "I shall continue my journey." Michael looked at Utaros. "Utaros, you shall rule in my stead." "Thank you, sire." Michael stood up. "Now if you will excuse me..." Michael went back to town.
The two keldon Michael followed led him to a stone table. At it, the keldon elders from the various settlements were seated, leaving a spot for Michael to sit at. "Why have you summoned me?" Elder Utaros stood up. "Sit and we shall tell, Lord Michael." Michael sat at the table. "We called you here to discuss your ascension to the throne. Mainly to pick a site for your new kingdom." "There is no way out of this, is there?" Utaros shook his head. "I choose Villgust, then." One of the other elders stood up. "But Villgust was destroyed." "Then rebuild it. I don't want a castle though." "But why?" "Because I'm not going to rule as a king. We shall have a new form of government." The elders stood up and began to protest.
"I can't sleep...." Michael walked outside and took a stroll on the beach. Two keldon approached him. "Are you Michael Nightroad?" "I am, why do you ask?" "Come with us, the keldon elders request your presence for the Blackmoon Council." Michael followed them.
Michael sighed and fell back on the bed. "What a day...."
"I just wanted to tell you that tomorrow is Michael's birthday." OOC: Have to stop here for now. Good night.
"Well, that didn't work out like I expected it to...." Zephyr went back into Kai's mind.
Michael gave Kai a kiss. "Well, good night then."
Zephyr ran out of the room, shutting the door behind her. "I think she had another plan in mind...." "There, that ought to keep those two together."
Michael grabbed Kai. "What's wrong?!" Kai gave Michael a big kiss, then started laughing. "Got you, Michael!" Michael hit Zephyr. Then he started laughing.
"Michael, Get up! Kai's in trouble!" Michael fell out of the bed. "What's wrong?!" "I don't know, just go help her!" Michael ran into Kai's room. "Ok now, Kai. When he grabs you and asks you what's wrong, give him a big kiss."
"Ok, just start flailing around on the bed. I'll go get him."
"His sense of humor has gotten better though. Besides, if he gets mad, he's going to take it out on me anyway."
"I just want to see the look on his face when he finds out we played a joke on him!"
"How about we act like you are in trouble?"
"If I had any ideas, I wouldn't be asking you for help, now would I?"
