Selene shrugged as she looked at all the stacks of texts. "Well, when you have like women like me and Lulu with a pension for studying, we tend to make such a large storage of knowledge. Though, this particular library was started by my mother. Mine and Lulu's are in other parts of the castle." Smiling she brought another scroll from another stack before turning to William. "Oh, three of those scrolls are considered the basic scrolls for fire magic. The other two are just things I thought you would enjoy. They are scrolls that detail the theories of temperature manipulation in relation to the elemental magics."

"I promise!" Hawke answered before continuing down the hallway. They just needed to get downstairs and into a cart. There would be way more knights below so they would need to be extra careful.

“Alight,” Garnet said as she followed her brother. As they went down the stairs she always hid when a knight was spotted. As they got to the bottoms floor she asked, “So, how are we supposed to get out of the castle anyways?”

"I have been watching come carts come and go every day. So I think we sneak into the back of one of them and let it takes us into town!" Hawke said feeling rather proud of this idea. No one would notice a thing and they could use this method to return back!

Garnet wanted to argue with her brother. His idea of just jumping on a cart didn’t sound like the best thing. However, it wasn’t like she had any better idea. As they went down to the stables she spotted a covered wagon getting loaded up. Pointing at it she asked, “Would that work?”

((I am so sorry all, lots of life stuff lately. Where are we with Redcap and Jay and Luna?))
Scover, having left just after Jay accepted Redcap's demands, was now raging as he walked down the halls, his uncontained emotions causing his magic to also run rampant. Candles would flicker or burst flame as he walked past, some stones randomly cracked as if a large weight was suddenly dropped on it, and his eyes were eliminating any magic in the vicinity, while it normally only happened on magic he saw being cast. The whole time, Scover was just repeatedly thinking about how his uncle could possibly give in to the goblins demands. His feet somehow managed to carry him to the infirmary, his magic no doubt filtering into the nearby rooms.

Umm, I think Redcap was offering to have a fellow type of goblin to deal with the one who hired him...I think?)
Valex slowly started to wake up as he felt the magic permeate through the halls of the castle. From what he could tell, the source seemed to be Scover. Rising to a a seated position, he climbed out of the bed and walked to the infirmary doors. Opening the doors, rubbing his eyes, he asked, "Okay, what is going on?"

((Gotcha. If that's the case we can resume there once Hawk is on. Should we continue with Lulu, Rev, Sprig, and the fairy settlement?))
Scover jumped as a door opened and he felt his friend's presence now next to him. It was just enough that his own raging heart called down and the wild magic surrounding him evaporated. "Huh? Oh, there was a goblin who was hired to hurt the triplets and try to take our eyes. They captured him but then Jay gave into his demands instead of locking him up!" The boy said, huffing and crossing his arms. "If it was me I would have slashed his throat open." He muttered more quietly. His eyes were still glimmering, rage and anger still evident in them.

We can if you want)
Valex rubbed his eyes, trying to get the sleep out of them. "Okay, you really are throwing a lot at me after just waking up," he said, groaning. Now, slightly more awake, he asked," First off, if father and mother chose to not kill him, and actually do what he is asking then there is probably a good reason. Second, I heard that and am honestly surprised you would say that. Usually I am the one with the violent tendency."

Scover tried his best to calm down, understanding his friend had just woken up and wasn't fully there yet. "Sorry. I just don't like it when anyone threatens me or my family." He responded, fists clenching again. "And as for my mean streak, it only comes out in these situations. I have.... WE have been through so much when we were younger. And now that we have such a great family, I'd do anything to protect it." He responded, huffing a bit. "But anyway, I still can't believe they agreed to that goblin." He said.
After the Fairy village welcomed Rev back into their midst, along with his wife and son, Rev had been in high spirits. They'd put Sprig to bed and then got a night's rest as well. Revelation wad just waking up again the following morning beside Lulu, beginning to stretch as he slowly opened his eyes.

Crossing his arms, Valex nodded while saying, "My friend, while I am enjoying seeing your seldom seen rage, you need to calm yourself. Goblin's are good sources of info, especially when it comes to shiny objects being on the line." Tapping his right finger on his arm, he asked, "What kind of Goblin are we talking about here?"
Lulu was just sleeping soundly next to her husband, exhausted from the prior days events. However, she was abruptly woken up when a lock knocking came from their current bedrooms door. From the other side of the door Helix's voice rang out, "Time to get up love birds, got things to do."

Scover huffed and continued to try and calm down, however it certainly wasn't easy. "Even so, he still threatened myself and you. Not to mention the triplets. I don't like dealing with anyone that threatens me." He muttered. "And I think he said his name was Redcap? Or that was the name of his tribe? I wasn't paying very close attention."
Revelation was cuddling close to his wife to wish her a good morning before Helix's knocking came to the door. The fairy sighed, leaning over and gently kissing Lulu's cheek. "Well my love, apparently we can't spend too long greeting each other." He whispered softly. "Shall we get up? And should we get Sprig or let him sleep?" He asked, gently running his hand over Lulu's side.

Lulu groaned as she reclosed her eyes as she said, "Darling, I love you but you go on ahead. I am feeling a little off and want a few minutes more of rest. You go deal with your loud friend, me and Sprig will catch up soon enough." She really didn't want to be challenged on this. Since getting to the fairy colony, she has slowly been feeling off for some reason.
"Redcap you say," Valex parroted. From what he could recall the Redcaps were one of the most bloody thirsty of all types of goblins. He even heard that there heads were not red due to an actual cap, but because they rub the blood of their enemies on them, otherwise they die. However, the blood thing was a rumor. Smirking he asked, "Want to go spy on their meeting with this Redcap?"

Revelation frowned a bit. Seeing Lulu not feeling the best always made him a bit worried. "Alright love. If you're sure." He responded, softly kissing his wife's cheek. "If you need anything just let me know." He responded softly. He slowly got back up and dressed before walking to the door. He quietly left before turning to his friend. "Alright I'm up Helix. What's on the agenda." He said.
Scover sighed, not sure exactly what he wanted to do. "I mean I guess we could. But I also don't trust myself not to fire a fireball or two at the goblin." He responded.

Valex leaned against the door frame just sighed. Sometimes he was at a loss with his friend. "Alright then, then why don't we walk and you think. I want you to tell me more about this Redcap anyways, maybe I can tell you why they are making deals with him instead of just killing him," the young mage offered.
Lulu just nodded as she fell back asleep. Meanwhile, as Rev exited the room Helix raised an eyebrow. "Why is it just you? You don't often do anything anymore without the wife tagging along," he questioned.

Scover shrugged a bit and then reluctantly nodded. "Alright I'll agree to that my friend." The boy responded, weakly standing back up straight. "What all do you want to know? I'll say whatever I can." He responded.
Revelation actually smacked his friend upside the back of his head this time. "Hey, she is my queen so she deserves to be involved." He responded. "She's just not feeling her best today. She's been a bit off ever since we got here. I'll let her rest a bit longer." He said.

Walking past Scover he said, "First off, I want to know exactly what the Redcap was hired to do. You said that he had two objects correct, our eyes and the triplets?" He could understand his and Scover's eyes, but why the triplets. Could it have something to do with the raid on the capital.
Helix rubbed the back of his head and growled out, "Your queen or not, you each need some time apart to just relax." Sighing he nudged his king's shoulder and said, "Well maybe it has to do with the barrier around the place to keep it hidden. One of the ingredients was wolfsbane."

Scover just shrugged his shoulders. "I do t know that either. I ran away just before they started talking about that. If I had to guess though I bet it was that awful elf. He would be one to stoop so low to do that out of revenge." He responded while crossing his arms.
Rev stopped in his tracks. "It has what?!" He exclaimed. "We need to get her out of the barriers then, or some kind of antidote. Maybe Sprig too, he also has werewolf blood in him." He said, already starting to fret again. Despite being with his own people again, his first love would always be his family.

"Oh calm down ya big baby, that annoying advisor of yours already got something put together to help them," Helix chastised, in as friendly way as possible. Smirking, he said, "Besides, it is not like the amount of wolfsbane they use is enough to cause any damage to them anyways. From what they said, it would just give them symptoms like that of a bad flue."
"No, Valker is not the type that would go seeking needles revenge," Valex explained. Pointing at his friend/cousin he further stated, "Our eyes would help him as a mage, so that I can see him doing. However, the triplets would just invite unneeded attention rom the royal family and the guard. If there was one thing that I can confidently say about that jerk, he doesn't like to be bothered with things he can avoid. So, the one who wants the triplets is probably separate from Valker."

Revelation frowned and elbowed his friend gently. "Say that first next time." He grunted. "Once you find someone you love and want to devote your life to I'm sure your tune will change." He responded. He continued walking, summoning Galaross to his side so he wasn't walking without his weapon.
Scover huffed. "Maybe. But would he do that as revenge or as a distraction? Something that would throw our entire family into disarray?" He responded. He didn't know Valker too well but he did know the unpredictability of people when you offend them too many times.

Snickering to himself, Valex said, "No, that is not how he operates. Scover, he knows the strength of your mother and my newfound older sister." Pushing his friend slightly he started walking towards the kitchen. "I am telling you, he would not have cared about the triplets in any way."
Helix rubbed his side after Rev elbowed him. Rolling his eyes, he said, "Whatever you say." Walking next to the fairy king he said, "Anyways, if your done abusing you head captain of the guard, I have come to give you the rundown of the day's events."

Scover tried to dodge his friend but failed, stumbling a bit before trying to catch up. "Alright I get it." He responded. "So who else do you think might be involved?" He asked.
Revelation nodded. "Well go on then. What are we doing?" He asked, trying to speed up a bit since he knew they were already running a bit late.

Raising an eyebrow at the Scover, Valex asked, "My friend, the capital was literally attacked by a hostile force. Fair assumption that the one behind that is the same as the who hired this Redcap of yours." As they got closer to the kitchen, he walked in and examined the area. Spying a plate of donuts he just went up and grabbed about half of them before walking back out. All the while not paying attention to the fearful, or down right angry looks from the kitchen staff. Now, with his apparent snack in hand, he said, "Though, like I said before I am not discounting that Valkner might have had a hand in this Goblin's appearance."
Floating into the air slightly he said, "Well, you first need to talk to the Gallia. She wanted to discuss something about you moving here I think. I don't really know, kinda zoned out honestly."

Luna glances over at Jay wondering if she ought to shake his hand or if he should. They were going to need all the help they could get when it comes to dealing with the duke and his followers. this was the last post that was made with that plot line.)

As they went down to the stables she spotted a covered wagon getting loaded up. Pointing at it she asked, “Would that work?” "Course it would!" Hawke hoped this was work considering he didn't have any other plan. He notices a few servants loading some things into the cart. "All right we just need to wait until they walk away."

Watching as servants but boxes onto the cart, Garnet couldn't help but feel a little uneasy. What if they get caught? What if they fail to get on the cart? To many questions were running through her young mind and she didn't have an answer for any of them. After a moment no new servant brought any other crates, leaving the cart open.
