Neglos started laughing."You think a few guards can catch me?You wouldn't be the first."He stepped out into the light to show his black hair and his black clothes with crow feathers twined into them."Crows are had to get rid of."

Adelaide finished up the last of the dishes and cups, wiping her hands and standing with her arms crossed over her chest. She tilts her head a bit, brushing a strand of hair behind her ear when it came loose. "I have to do some work in the garden if you'd like to join me. It doesn't sound like wherever you need to be at is so important if you can't remember if you should be there or not." There's a slight teasing in her tone.

"It'll get you away from me at least for now." Rafaela said, two guards carrying spears at their side and rifles on their backs walked through the crowd. Rafaela briefly addressed both of them and showed them her navy sigil, while keeping her sword pointed towards Neglos. Both guards moved towards him.

Neglos cawed a few times and then a murder of crows joined behind him a few moments later."Try."He challenged before pointing the steak at the guards and holding his other arm up.

"It's not that I can't remember something, my mother or the advisers probably has some responsibility planned for me and thinks I've been avoiding them every morning." Bulent shrugged, having a few large sips of the wine. "Which I have... let's go to the garden then." He smiled.

Both guards decided to go for their rifles, one even passing his spear to Rafaela. People on the street moved to the sides, away from the four of them. Rafaela looked at the birds, and wondered if he was some kind of sorcerer. A guard shot down one of the crows, while the other kept his rifle trained on Neglos. "Call off your birds, and we'll escort you out of the city."

Neglos didn't look back,but a tear formed in one eye."You just killed my friend,why would I let you do anything to me?"And with that he dropped his hand and the crows instantly swarmed the trio,pecking at them with their beaks and clawing at them with their talons."I just wanted some food,is that really too much to ask for?"He said with his voice wavering.

The guards shot at the flock of crows, before trying to beat the crows away with their rifles. Rafaela covered her face, and tried to walk forwards through the crows with spear in hand. "There's plenty of food in a prison cell if that's what you want, sorcerer!" Rafaela shouted over the cawing of crows.

Adelaide couldn't help but smile, watching as he chugged his wine before agreeing to go with her. She chuckles under her breath and grabs a basket on her way out of the kitchen, holding the door open for Bulent. "You know, one of these days you're going to have to take up some of your responsibilities." She told him, the heels of her shoes clacking softly and echoing throughout the hallway as she made her way outside towards the gardens. "But, it's not really my place to tell you that I suppose."

Rafaela started swiping the crows away with the spear, seeing him flee she gestured to the guards to step back and focus on the crows. She cursed as a few of their talons scratched her face.

The crows continued their attack on the guards.They didn't want their friend to be taken by these bullies.
"You're doing well."He whispered before pulling out the dead one's body."Fly free."He told it before taking it's head and feathers.

Bulent moved to hold the door open first but she beat him to it. "I don't mind responsibilities so long as they don't involve talking to tired councilmen old enough to remember the civil war. Tell as much as you like, just make sure the king or queen don't hear you." He chuckled, following her down the hall towards the gardens.

The guards and Rafaela had killed a few more crows. They started to back down the street, one of the guards had a moment to catch the attention of a griffin sitting on the walls nearby. It wore some light leather armor with a blue scarf carrying the navy's sigil as well, and swooped down at great speed to crash through the flock and take out a few more crows.

"No!"Neglos' head snapped back towards the murder.He cawed twice and the murder picked up the bodies of their family and flew off.Then he took off after them.

Neither the guards, the griffin, or Rafaela tried to go after him, Rafaela mostly just glad that he was gone. Both guards escorted Rafaela back towards where her temporary apartment was supposed to be, keeping an eye out for Neglos at all times.

Rafaela dropped her bag inside her apartment and just dumped most of it out across the divan. The outside mightβve looked dingy and it was small but the inside was nicely furnished, and there were large windows displaying the cliffs beyond the docks. She washed over the cuts on her face and arms from the murder of crows in the sink with cool water. She didnβt feel like unpacking now after that exertion, so she collapsed onto the divan next to her things and wanted to rest.

Tell as much as you like, just make sure the king or queen don't hear you." He chuckled, following her down the hall towards the gardens. While Adelaide understood that it was meant to be taken as a joke, she knew the seriousness behind what he was saying. If the king or queen heard her speaking so casually to Bulent then she would immediately find herself out on the streets, without a home or a job. She just glances to him and offers a small smile, staying silent as she descended down a couple of windy stairs, getting closer to the servants quarters until she took a turn which led to a door. She opened it for the both of them, the bright light of daytime shining into the otherwise poorly lit hall. |

Bulent blinked a few times to get used to the sunlight, waiting in the door for Adelaide to lead. βI didnβt know that you also did garden work... usually I always see you indoors when youβre not going out to the market,β he commented. βHow much of the gardens need to get done?β he followed up by asking.

βHave you been watching me, sire?β Adelaide teased, glancing over to him over her shoulder. She navigates her way over to the simple wooden fence that contains many twisting vines and a few overgrown flowers, approaching the gate and reaching over it to unlock it. βNot much of it, just going to check on the produce and cutting away any weeds, maybe harvesting anything thatβs ripe and ready.β She told him as she swung open the gate and took a step onto the narrow, smooth soiled pathway.

"Not intentionally." Bulent replied seriously. "Leave the gate open or closed, or does it matter?" He asked her following her into the garden. "Should we have brought baskets or tools then?" he noticed he was still carrying the nearly-empty glass of wine, he finished it quickly and tucked the glass into his pocket to put back in the kitchen later. πππππ’ |

βClose, please.β She told him, chuckling at his answer. Adelaide smiles briefly in Bulentβs direction before holding up the basket in her hands. βIβve already got one in here, with weeds you justuse your hands to pull them out. Make sure you get as much of the root too. If we were planting anything I wouldβve brought more out. If you really need a tool of some sort I have a blunt knife you could use.β Adelaide mentioned as she set down the basket and began to tie the front of her skirt up so it lay below her knees, that way it wonβt get as dirty from kneeling in the soil.

Bulent closed the gate and caught up to her down the narrow soil path. He knelt down next to her, glad he was wearing his plainest clothes for this. "When you said gardening I was thinking it would be a lot of digging up and replanting, like the queen likes to have done with half the gardens every year, but I guess I don't know much about gardening. These are the weeds right?" He looked at some small fern-like stalks of green that stuck up from the soil in between and around the rows of plants. πππππ’ |

((I have a couple more characters that might be coming, and if I decide to go ahead with them they'll probably be posted in a day or two. In the meantime I hope the queen fits well enough. If anything needs to be changed let me know.)) Beyza Evren-Elif (F, 48, Dying Queen) Beyza has golden-brown skin that recent years of illness has rendered ashen. Her once thick, umber head of hair is now thin, frail, and graying with age. It hangs loosely at her back, though she had oft sported it in a tight ponytail in her youth. Beyza's eyes are brown-black; a cold and piercing night sky. Her heart-shaped face is slight and feminine, though nary a smile ever creeps upon it.
She stands quite tall for a woman at 5'8. Her royal wardrobe consists of long and flowing fabrics lined with colors of the seafloor, which include dark blues, deep greens, beige, and some occasional black. Beyza rarely wears any of the intricate and dazzling jewelry her people are known for, but she's almost never seen without her two pearl earrings. The Queen is a cold woman. She does what's required of her as ruler, but with no great enthusiasm. Though possessing a sharp and rational mind, she's hypercritical and rude to those she deems inferior. Some people simply aren't worth her time. In her youth, Beyza was wild; in love with the sea and the lifestyle that surrounded it. She often fantasized about donning a navy uniform and stealing away on a ship to live with the griffins. As she got older, already distant dreams of sailing and griffins became even more distant. Royal duties were made a priority for her by her parents, who had groomed her to be the successor since she was small. Perhaps this had a part to play in the hardening her jaded heart. But gradually, since the onset of her illness, certain things have drifted onto her mind; questions and regrets only one confronting their own mortality could have. Her once impenetrable soul has been softening slightly as death approaches. Beyza loves to read, a hobby she's been partaking in much more since her illness. She also loves stargazing and watching the sea on her patio.
