Mason tilts his head finding what the goblin was saying curious. He turns to one of the other knights. "Go fetch me a chain. I think this goblin and I are going to have a little chat. I think someone sent him here on purpose." The knight hesitated for a minute before walking off to go grab a chain.

Redcap growled as he continued to try pry himself from the metal man’s grasp. At the mention of chains he thrashed even harder. All the while screaming “Redcap will not be bound in chains, he is not slave like Redcap’s kin. Redcap a free goblin!”

"You won't be a slave little one. I just want to ask you a few questions but I have to make sure you don't run away." Mason explained finding the goblin amusing. "There are no slaves in Silverwood."

Redcap stopped his movement and seemed to calm down. Suddenly an intense blood lust could be felt emanating from the goblin as he halted daggers at the one holding him. “Metal man lie, Wolf land is bad as fire breathers for Redcap’s people,” he said with such venom in his voice a couple of the metal men started getting restless. Slowly the goblin placed his hands on some of the metal bits on his captures arms. Slowly he started to press his nails into the metal which seemed to give a little bit, new dents where the goblin was pressing becoming present.

Mason frowned though he couldn't blame the goblin. The law of the crown could only go so far. Plenty of people consider goblin inferior being who deserve to be enslaved or killed. "I'm sorry to hear that, Who has been hurting your people? The king and queen could send people to stop them."

Redcaps nails did not move from where they were digging as he said, “All humans enemy of goblins, Redcap’s people no have name like human. Now release Redcap so can finish reason for coming to large wolf den!” It was clear talking like this, especially when he was being handled like a sprog.

"Something about the fairy baby?" Mason questioned still trying to get answers out of him. "Look you can trust me. I need answers or else you may have to sit in the dungeons for a while or I bring you in front of the king and queen."

Redcap growled as he said, “Redcap does not fear the wolves metal man follow.” Pulling back his nails he then said, “Release Redcap and Redcap may tell human of the promised shines deal.” The goblin did not care who he was in front, he just wanted on the ground. Goblins are not ones who really like to be off the ground.

Mason considers this for a moment. "Do you promise not to run away? Otherwise, I can't promise that my friend may or may not decide to kill you with his sword." He lowers Redcap just a little to see how would react.

Redcap rolled his eyes and said, “Yes Redcap give oath to not run, now release Redcap. Goblin not meant to be off the ground, not natural.” Honestly he had no intention of running away, he would not be able to fight off all these metal men alone. There was a reason that goblins hunted in packs typically.

Mason carefully places Redcap down on the ground. He places his hand on the hilt of his sword waiting to see what Redcap would say.

Once on the ground Redcap shook like an animal before looking at his recent capture. Crossing his arms the goblin said, "Now you want the information of the one with Redcap's promised shines. What will you give Redcap for the knowledge of Redcap?"

Nova continued to fuss a bit but eventually relented, holding up his arms for his father to lift him. "Okay broffer." The young boy said as Jay leaned down and picked him up. Nova leaned into his father. Gripping his shirt in his smaller hands.
Jay chuckled as Nova settled in and he glanced to Luna before looking back to Valex. "Alright, Valex. Rest well and take it easy. I'd you need your mother or myself, just send someone to get us." He said gently, ruffling Valex's hair softly before walking back to the door.
Diantha was still holding Rye's hand, watching the cute scene. She glanced up at Rye, trying to see what he was thinking.

Valex have a small nod while saying, “Yes father.” Once his adoptive father and brother left the infirmary he turned his gaze to Diantha. “Diantha, I don’t want to intrude but I want to make sure that you are okay. You seemed like something was wrong earlier, if I was not mistaken.”

Diantha glanced over to Valex as he addressed her. After he asked I'd she was alright, Diantha smiled. "Oh yes I'm okay Valex. It's just your big brother Rye and I have been having to try litte one of our own, and it just hasn't happened for us yet. Seeing your father read to you and little Nova made me picture Rye reading to our child." She said, sniffling a bit and dabbing her eyes with a cloth. "I'm sorry. I just got a bit emotional is all." She responded.

Valex looked at her and said, “I am sorry that my question brought up such a sensitive subject, that was not my intention.” He felt uneasy having brought up their inability to produce a child. With a slight cough he said, “If you don’t mind me saying, if you can not produce an heir yourself then maybe help someone with the opposite dilemma. Maybe a child in need.”

Diantha chuckled and nodded softly. "You bring up a good point, Valex. We might consider it in the future." She said, glancing up to Rye to try and read his expression. After a moment she turned back to Valex. "So what were you and Scover doing before your school break? Learn anything fun?" She asked, trying to keep up conversation.
((We could also do Lulu and Rev of you'd like, Blood))

Valex sighed as he said, "Well before we came here we had just ne told about the annual school competition between are school and its sister school, Mysta Academy." Closing his eyes he said, "Me and Scover were supposed to compete, but that does not look like it will be possible now."
Sure, what do you want them to be doing?)

Diantha nodded softly. "I'm sure you'll be cheering Scover and everyone else from your school on though. What all does the competition entail?" She asked.
((Not really sure, could be planning to strike back against the person holding the last bit of the fairy forest from them. With Helix back they can also just be relaxing or something. Or maybe Helix found something else like more fairies or anyrhing like that))

"Scover yes, the others not so much," Scover said sound rather callus and not really caring about his fellow students. He then chuckled as he then said, "Well the majority are several different ranks fighting one another in a tournament fashion. The only other events are academic quizzes."
Helix could tell them about a small colony of fairies that he found and they could go and investigate)

((Sure that works. Would you mind starting?))
Disntha noded softly. "I see, well that does sound exciting. Except maybe the quizzes part. I never really liked those when I was in school." She said with a lighthearted giggle. "So if I may ask do you like the Academy? I've heard you and Scover have had issues with the teachers occasionally." The Elven woman said.

Alright)
Valex had to had to hold back a laugh as he said, "The place has a lot of good resources, but its staff can be seen as barely competent. Honestly, the old man sent me there to begin with to show how much stronger I am than the others of my age." Clenching his fist tight as he then added, "Just another political tool for the old man to make use of."
Helix was sitting with Lulu and Scover at one of the smaller conference rooms. The three had gone their so that they could discuss his most recent outing. "Okay, so I have some exciting news to share." The fairy said with excitement. Lulu turned her head to the side and asked, "Oh and what might that be?" Helix smirked as he said, "I found a little colony near the boarders of the kingdom full of fairies."

What will you give Redcap for the knowledge of Redcap?" "Mmm depends what do you want? " Mason asked as he kneels down in front of him. The other knight keeps a close eye on him just in case.

Diantha chuckled a little bit and nodded. "I see. From the sound of it, they didn't exactly treat you fairly. Or did they try to take advantage of your abilities?" She asked, trying to learn more about the boy.
Revelation was sitting beside Lulu, kissing her once as they settled in. He looked back to Helix as he started speaking. The mention of 'exciting news' made the fairy's one eyebrow raise a bit. However, at the mention of a fairy colony, Rev was immediately on his feet, hands on the table. "A fairy colony?! Helix you better not be pulling my wing." He said in shock.
Jay eventually got Nova back to his room and tucked into bed before looking around for Luna. He wanted to talk to her more about Valex's current situation and how they might be able to help he and Scover when they return to the Academy.

Luna had stepped away to speak to someone for a moment. She uses her nose to find Jay and finds him outside of Nova's room. "There you are love."

Jay was just closing the door to the triplets' bedroom when he heard Luna's voice. Jay looked over to her and smiled softly. "Hello my dear, I was just laying Nova down to get some sleep. Hopefully he's feeling a bit better." He said softly, walking up to Luna and gently wrapping his arms around her waist. He lightly nuzzled her neck with his nose and let out a soft growl. "Now that we have some time to ourselves, should we go get a snack? I think we need to talk about what we need to do when Scover and Valex return to their schooling." He said.

Helix smirked as he said, "Oh come now Rev why would I even joke about something like this, besides you don't really have enough wing to pull anyways." Crossing his arms and leaning back in his chair he said, "This little colony was made by some of the survivors of the fall of the forest, and has slowly grown with others related them by blood."
Valex rolled his eyes as he said, "Oh please to them I am a mere magic counter, Scover acting as the safety net." Raising his eyebrow he then asked, "If you don't mind me asking, have you ever gone to school."
Redcap gave the metal man a toothy grin as he said, "Shines, more shines then what was promised to Redcap." To goblins the world revolved around shiny things, offer enough to them and then they will do almost anything the one giving them.

Revelation listened to his friend saying he wouldn't ever joke about things like this. Yes, you would joke about things like this. Rev thought, but chose not to voice his retort. After Valex confirmed the colony existed and the inhabitants, Rev sat back down and leaned back in his chair, slightly in shock. "I never thought we'd find more of the Fairies so soon..." he murmured.
Diantha frowned, hearing that the teachers at his Academy seemed to use he and Scover more than teaching them and helping them grow. At Valex's question about her own schooling, the young elf nodded her head. "Oh yes, for many years when I was much younger. My father is a minor noble back in the Elven kingdom so I did have a good education. Most of it was with other snooty elven nobles though." She responded with a chuckle.

Valex let out a small chuckle as he said, "Oh yes I can relate to that bit, so many nobles brats acting all entitled at the academy. Though thankfully not all of them fall into that category, otherwise I would not be where I currently find myself now."
Helix let out a slight scoff and said, "The heck do you mean "so soon"? I have been looking for are brethren for years." Crossing his arms as before adding, "Anyways, I have had some talks with them. While this is good, there are some problems that arise from this. The leader of this colony is your former head advisor Gallia, and while faithfully waiting for your return she has a few choice words to hurl at you."

Diantha laughed lightheartedly. "Oh you haven't seen anything until you've seen Elven nobles, young one. Elves are already known to act superior over other groups. Add on aristocracy and it's a hundred times worse. " She responded with a warm smile. "Ate you glad you met Scover though, Valex?" Diantha asked softly. "And that he brought you- well, dragged you here?" She added.
Rev smiled and gently took Lulu's hand in his. There were more Faries out there. All this time! He then looked back to Helix as he rebuffed his own statement. "Yes yes I know you have Helix. I meant that even before we rebuilt the forest. I was expecting an uphill battle finding the Faries and bringing them back to their homeland even after we set everything up." He responded. Upon hearing who the leader of the group was, Revelation grunted and his face fell a bit. "She's still breathing, huh. I bet she had tons to say to me. She never did hold her tongue on anything."
