[h3] [color=Cadetblue]The Boy[/color] & [color=orange]The Demon[/color] [/h3] The air around them was salty and damp as distant sound of the sea could be heard, as Mercutio stood upon and intruding rock from the earth looking above the trees and seeing the waves of the ocean. Closing his eyes and sniffing the air, the saltiness of the air disguised the 'scent' of the tower to an extent but with him this close, Mercuito could feel the power of this living tower. [color=cadetblue] "Can you feel it Fen? Can you feel it? Its just like what they told me, we're definitely on the right path! Come on, I'm certain we'll reach there before sun down, so lets get going!" [/color] Mercuito eagerly said to his Demonic guardian that was floating behind him, observing through the forest to the tower ahead of them. The two of them had a passive relationship that they both learned to try and enjoy it since they were going to be stuck for a long time. They had many questions that they both wanted to ask to why they were bound to each other, and so until answers were provided they would both not hinder either one of them. [color=orange]"Ugh, I don't like this feeling that I am getting from this place"[/color] Fenox grumbled as he watched the tower along with Mercuito, staring intently at the building with contained so much life force. In a way it was simillar to Fenox himself, as he consumed souls and used them to increase his own powers, in theory the building if he predicted correctly was an intimidating and powerful object of sentience. However, the two of them already hypothesized about this theory and it was the most likely one, however other explanations were still on the table but this seemed the most dangerous and probable. [color=orange] "This place is the most to provide an answer to why we are bound together, but it also has the biggest risk involved. But I guess if we don't risk our own live to find something then we might as well just not try, right?" [/color] Fenox said to Mercutio snickering slightly as he morphed into his defensive form, appearing as a rib-cage that defended Mercutio. Fenox didn't like it but since they didn't know what they were against in that tower this was the most practical reaction as they would be able to defend themselves if they didn't have the first move. He smiled as he nodded in confirmation, Mercuito began making his way down to the tower leaping off his rock and heading through the forest. Upon reaching the tower, Mercuito was about to knock on the door before it opened with the servant flinching the moment he saw him and Fenox. Averting his gaze during the conversation and seeming nervous the servant said [color=darkkhaki]"R-right this way sir, we have been waiting f-for the both of you."[/color] All Mercutio did was nonchalantly smile as he was guided but being inside the tower, his attention was all spread around looking for anything that caught his eye. He didn't care that the servant was giving him a strange look for the ghostly rib-cage that surrounded him. Once inside their room, he looked at the room briefly and waited for the servant to walk down the hall and turn before investigating the tower himself. With his curiosity and Fenox's careful watch, Mercuito explored the tower for anything interesting that seemed to be interesting and to see if anyone else was inside this tower [hr] [h3][color=crimson] The Knight [/color][/h3] Korthul walked to the door, and knocked politely on the door waiting for an answer which quickly came. With his invitation in the other hand he quickly handed to the person who answered the door. All he heard then was a gasp of surprise, looking down the female servant was intimidated by his silent posture and stare. Deciding to just get straight onto business, he spoke first to the girl who was frozen. [color=Crimson]"Hello, Sorry to intrude but I believe this invitation was sent to me. If you don't mind my journey has been a difficult one and I hope you may guide me to my room if you can?"[/color] He said civilized trying to seem friendly to the girl so she would just take him to his room. His feet hurt as he was accompanied by several of his team members where they made several detours which had unfortunately cut into his predicted time to arrive at the tower. They all one by one left him as once he reached to the coast he was alone, thank god. He hated them but only dealt with them as they helped him accomplish what he needed to be done. Faking being a friendly leader for them was taxing on his mentality but he was able to endure that for a while, having to slipping off his facade every once in the long while. The girl nodded meekly before walking him to his room, where upon opening the door for him she look at him for a last time before bowing slightly and abruptly leaving. [color=Crimson]"God, that's all over now what do I do? I was invited here but I don't know what this prince wants and I don't like to stand her waiting if I was invited to this tower for something. Wandering around would seem rude but If someone doesn't meet with me soon, I shall wander about soon."[/color] He mumbled to himself silently, he looked at the bed in his room and laid on it, yawning as he observe the room bored. Looking at his traveling pack he put to the side, he knew that he wasn't the only person who was invited and they would sooner or later meet if it was needed. Until then, Korthul was going to keep to himself and he got off his bed, walking to the window he peeked through the covers watching what was going outside silently trying to see if he could see any of the other guest here.
