Jotie not too long after finished after Airen. He smiled happily. "Don't thank me. You should thank the cooks. They are the wonders of cookery." He smiled and looked at the picture once more. He liked it alot, but was going to let Bluu have it.
Bluu used his claw and picked it up. He put it on the ground and covered it with his talon, like he was protecting it. "I'm going to keep it with me and put it in my home!" He said cheerfully.
Jotie nodded and smiled. He looked at Airen and said, "Wow, you finished way before I have. Of course, you had a bit of a smaller meal. When Kilian is finished, I'll show you the records on where we keep everything. They are getting dull and need a new cover, so it would be protected."

Airen kicked her legs under the tabled and looked over at Jotie. She nodded and glanced over at Kilian. She got up and walked over to Bluu. She lift his paw/forehand and pulled out her pad. She wasn't going to let him keep the whole thing! Airen tore out the picture, rolled it up, and tied it with a string. She set that on the table and patted Bluu's head.
"You don't have to wait on me. As soon as I finish, I have to leave for Renor Crysos. Lilis got moved to be Karita's bodyguard so asked me if I would like to help be Zuki's bodyguard with her son, Constantine." Kilian said, working his way to another section of his plate. "And Airen is a little impatient to start working." (Airen shot a hot glare at Kilian.) "Don't singe my clothes Airen!"

Bluu noticed that he took her whole pad and he grinned. "Sorry." He looked at the rolled up picture. He looked at Airen and tilted his head. "She's impatient?"
Jotie looked at Airen and nodded. "Well, we musn't be staying here any longer then. I'm sure that one of our servants here will lead you out, Kilian. Do you need escort to Renor Crysos before we leave onto our duties?"

Kilian smiled and shook his head. "No, I can make it there fine. I plan on flying, which I have neglected to do for some time."
Airen shoved her drawing pad into her bag and looked at Bluu. She nodded, answering his question. She rolled her eyes and pulled out her pad again. She wrote something on it and showed it to Bluu. I tend to be very impatient. Airen wrote some more on there after a moments thought. I don't like to waste time, especially my own.

Jotie nodded and stood up. "Well, we better get going Airen. It's nice meeting you again Kilian. Please tell Zuki that I said hi." He said and waited for Airen to follow him.
Bluu tilted his head and nodded as he read it a little. "Oh. I didn't know." He stood up, his body now taller than Airen. He looked down at her and smiled.

Airen looked up at Bluu and raised her eyebrows. She whistled softly and then trotted to catch up with Jotie.
"I will Jotie, farewell." Kilian said as he listened to them walk away.
Airen was dying to ask questions, but she didn't think Jotie would understand her if she asked him with pictures and that left writing (a tedious process). So, to occupy herself and to keep from possibly annoying Jotie, she looked around at the statues and tapestries.

Jotie continued walking and looked back. He smiled. "My, your quiet like a mouse. If you have any questions, be sure to t... erm, write it to me." He said and continued walking torwards a darkened room. It seemed to be darkened and he muttered a spell, then a light appeared and it showed signs of dust and Jotie looked at it with disgust. "Hmm, maybe I should of let the maids clean this place. I'm sorry that this room is a little dusty. You take one at a time and bring it out to a clean room of your choice. Go upstairs and there will be plenty of rooms to pick from. Pick one and you can use it. The maids will do whatever you say or write if you put the note on the front of the door. Is there anything else?" He said and turned around to face her with a smile.

Airen frowned when she saw the condition of the records room. She gave a disgusted snort and began to leaf through some papers that had been left out. They were faded and brittle. One of them crumbled to dust in Airen's hands. Airen walked farther into the room and looked at some of the other records. She came back to the stack of papers and poked them, setting them on fire. She shook her head sadly and walked out.
As she stood, seething quietly, in the hallway, she wrote on her pad. Who was in charge of the records before me? She wanted to know that so that, if they were still alive, she could set them on fire every time she saw them. Airen wasn't against killing, but only when it was necessary. Where can I find more inks and papers when I run out? She then walked back up to Jotie and showed him her writing.

Jotie previewed the scene and looked back at her, smiling nervously. "Well, I wasn't doing a good job, letting a scribe do his work. It was old man, Janacis, although he died from a fatal heart attack not too long ago." He smiled and then went onto her next question. "Well, we have a supply room and if you go down this hall, then take a right. Head past two hallways and take a left and to the second door to your right, you will find the supply room, full of everything you need." He smiled and nodded with approvement. "If so, you can look on the castle map in here, which is hopefully still intact."

Airen nodded back. She sighed as she looked around the room. There was so much work to do, but the laws were still priority. Where are the laws you want me to copy? Airen asked Jotie as she called the burning papers to stop burning.

Jotie nodded and pointed out, "Well, the rules and laws are over there on the shelf. They are easy to hunt out and write them down. Once you get the shelf all cleared, then you can move onto one of the cupboards that hold the maps of every land, although I don't think I will still have a use of them, unless I plan to adventure, but that wouldn't be so in my future. Maybe if you clear out the cupboards, we could put the ink and pen in there, so you wouldn't have to run back and fourth to get more of them."
He walked in and looked on the bookshelf and noticed they were old tax papers of all the imports and exports. He thought they could still be in use, although they are a few years old. "If you want, you could rewrite all of the tax records on here, then we could give it to the merchants. We built the new merchant house where we keep the new and updated records. I don't know why we have a few in here."

I will recopy the laws and do a set with pictures first, then I will organize, and then I will copy the maps and tax records. Airen told Jotie and went to the appointed cupboards. She gave a hiss when a family of mice scurried about and jumped out at her. Airen simply stepped out of the way. She incinerated the mice and looked at the law records. There would undoubtably be pieces missing. She checked them and found that she was right. I will need you to help me when I rewrite some sections... we can do that when I start that new picture for Bluu. Are you free tomorrow Jotie?

Jotie thought about it. "Well, a little, yes. I was planning out the chance to find a way to clear out the zombies and skeletons that strolls by the outside village, but that's about it." He waited, "Is there anything else you need?"

Well, I suppose that is fine. None of the first sections seem too badly damaged. When are you planning on doing something unimportant like that? Airen wrote Jotie and then flipped through more sections of the law records. I can wait, but if you’d like some assistance I’ll offer mine. Guards are annoying.
Airen sighed and set the law records aside. She looked for paper in one of the other cupboards and wrinkled her nose when it disintegrated in her hands. Airen picked up the records and stuffed them into her bag with her other materials. She looked back at Jotie and kind of wished he’d move over a little. She wasn’t in the habit of brushing by people if she wasn’t mad first.
How come there is no window in here? Why wasn’t the records room built where it could have a window?

Jotie never thought about it. "Well, I never thought about that. Usually, I just say, keep it from the elements that could damage it. But then again, it was badly damaged by aging and rodents."
He then thought about his free time. "Well, I have plenty of time now that I'm thinking about it." he nodded and backed out of the room and turned around to face her again. "So, what do you need help with?"

We could find Bluu again and start working on that picture. I don't think I'll run into any sections that are too hard to read or too badly damaged today. Airen wrote him and walked by, but stopped again. I like to work outside. Can we go back to the gardens? She asked him, looking wistful.

Jotie smiled and nodded. "You may work wherever you may please." He said with a smile.

Airen smiled brightly. That's good. Thanks. Now let's get Bluu.

Jotie nodded and went out of the records room. He thought spoke to Bluu. ~Hey, Bluu! Do you want to see Airen? Come to the gardens!~
Bluu heard the message and flew torwards the gardens. ~Okay! Tell her I'm there! I'm not too far off.~
Jotie smiled and nodded. "Alright, Bluu will be waiting for us there." He told her.

Airen smiled brightly and nodded. Good, good. She said and set off at a fast walk. She wasn't in a hurry, that was just how she normally walked. Airen had her pad balanced on her arm and was looking over a half-finished drawing while she walked. After a minute's inspection, she pulled out a pencil and began to add details. Twice, she stepped out of the way of patrols, around statues, and gawking nobles. Sometimes they gave her an odd look, but she didn't notice because she was so caught up in her work.

When they rounded to the garden, immediately, Jotie got pounced at by Bluu. Jotie screamed and laughed. "Ha ha! Okay Bluu. Get off, you big guy."
Bluu pinned his arms and growled playfully and licked Jotie across the face. "I got you again! Ha ha!"
Jotie sputtered and struggled. "Okay okay! Don't lick me again! It's slimy." He laughed happily.
Bluu yiped and got off of Jotie and grinned a toothy grin. Jotie got up and wiped his face with his sleeve. Jotie chuckled and rubbed his head and looked at Airen. Bluu growled playfully and was about to pounce onto Airen. Jotie immediately said, "No Bluu! Don't get her now. She's busy."
Bluu whined and sat down on his haunches, wanting to play. He stared at her with big blue eyes and was curious. "Airen? When you get done, do you wanna play with me?"

Airen jumped and inhaled sharply when Bluu spoke to her. A long dark line jumped across the page and glared defiantly back at her. She frowned and put her pad away. She looked up at Bluu, giving him a crooked grin.
I suppose, but I was going to start that drawing you had asked me for. She told him and stepped back so that she wasn't craning her neck.

Bluu grinned happily. "That can wait! We get to have fun now!" He ran towards her and tackled her freely without warning. He did the same thing that he did to Jotie and licked her across the face.
