Now you know the history real quick
Now as you know Yayelle was trying to reach Hydlaa afraid that the enemies of the empire would find her before she could find help. Somehow she managed and as she lined up at the gate to enter the city the familiar sound of the guards was heard.
"Keep your weapons sheathed while in Hydlaa, citizen."
Looking around memories came back to Yayelle as it had been a few years already since her mother had taken her away to try and escape those trying to kill the rest of the Greenmoon family.
Yayelle thought of who could help her now that she did make it here. Untill now she had held on to the idea of Hydlaa and the memories of her childhood, sure someone must still be here that would help her. Then the thought occured to her and Yayelle quickly latched on to it. Queen Lolitra Purrty. She was her godmother and her mother had always mentioned she was a kind person. Surely she would be abe to help Yayelle to find her sister or atleast take care of her.
Yayelle looked around but couldn't remember where House Purrty was and following the stream of people she soon find herself at a tavern and with the remainder of the crowd moving inside she was suddenly left quite alone in front of the tavern. Looking around Yayelle decided to go inside and ask someone there where the House of Purrty was or if Lolitra was somewhere else.
As Yayelle stepped in a man looked at her with his azure eye and his gaze followed the fenki, the black mists swirling sinisterly within it. Yayelle flinched slightly at the gaze and her paw went to the ring of her father she carried on a silver necklace around her neck. Putting on a brave face she walks futher in and approaches a lady that seemed nice enough to help her.
"Uhm miss could I ask you something?"
The elven lady looks at Yayelle smilling a bit "Of course... ask ahead
Yayelle smiles brightly "Uhm.. would you know where House Purrty is? And if Lolitra Purrty is there?"
The smile of the lady dissapears "Oh... i'm sorry... have you been away from Hydlaa for long?"
Yayelle blinks looking confused and nods
The lady continues "I... well... I don't know where the House is... but as for queen Lolitra......she is no longer with us...
Yayelle blinks "She went to Printh?"
The elven lady shakes her head negatively "Did you use to know her?"
Yayelle feels even more lost not knowing what to do now "Uhm well I... hardly remember her, but she was my godmother." and Yayelle sighs
"Oh my... i see... "
The elven lady continues to explain that the Queen has passed away and that she has heard that Dakkru has claimed her soul already. She introduces herself as Chessire. Yayelle stand still for a moment but is overwhelmed and she darts outside and into an ally but quickly leans against a wall no longer able to keep in the grieve she held up inside her so long. Here Chessire found her after following Yayelle outside.
Chessire kneels down and hugs her "These things happen... i am sorry for your godmother..."
Chessire kneels down and hugs her "These things happen... i am sorry for your godmother..."
Yayelle cuddles against Chessir and Chessire holds Yayelle for a good while waiting for her to calm
"I.. I .. know... I .. just don't know what to do now. I don't.. know anyone here."
Chessire whispers "Don't worry about that... your godmother had good and powerful friends... there is no way they will leave you alone..."
Yayelle blinks "Really?"Yayelle seems to calm a little
Chessire nods trying to smile a bit "Come to the inn with me... something to drink will help you relax... and then we can look for any of them...
Yayelle follows Chessire into the inn and Chessire buys her something to drink and makes sure Yayelle is calmed down and after taking care of some business of her own she takes the young female enkidukai into the city to find someone who could help. Chessire greets many people talking about some weapon business with someone then Chessire seems to see someone she recognizes on the street once again.
Chessire says: Sacho!
A male enkidukai in his twenties turns and says: Yes, Chessire?
Chessire smiles "Its so good to see you! Perhaps you are the best we could meet after lord Barike... i want you to meet this young fenki..."
Yayelle looks the menki over then Yayelle looks to Chessire "You know a lot of people."
Chessire grins to Yayelle "Hydlaa seems crowded tonight"
Yayelle blinks at the mention of Barike's name remembering it as one of the name Chessire mentioned of people who might be able to help her and Yayelle looks at Sacho
Sacho smiles warmly. "Hello, miss. I am Sacho."
Yayelle smiles slightly "I'm Yayelle."
Sacho says: "Nice to meet you, Yayelle." He glances at Chessire. "So why are you looking for Barike?"
Chessire explains the situation to Sacho. How Yayelle came to the city alone and how she thought Barike as the fiancee of lady Lolitra would probably want to help the goddaughter now that Lolitra had passed away and was unable to do this. Yayelle nods at Chessire's story a few times but starts looking a little sad as she realizes the Chessire plans to have Sacho take care of her. Then a couple consisting of a enkidukai male and female with some kittens in tow pass the corner and Sacho and Chessire seem to recognize them.
The female enkidukai waves at everyone with a warm smile
Chessire says "Mishka! Sabriel!"
Sacho waves to Mishka and Sabriel as they walk up.
Mishka says "Chessire!"
Chessire smiles "Hello... how are you?"
Sabriel smiles at Chessire
Yayelle looks to the two newcomers not to suprised Chessire seems to know them aswell.
Mishka says looking to Yayelle "Who's this little cub? Hello there!"
Chessire grins to Sabriel "Should i rather say, sir Cheshire?"
Yayelle nods looking sad "I'm Yayelle"
Mishka says "Are you sad, honey?"
Sabriel looks at the cub and smiles, still holding what is probably his own daughter in his arms "No need for formalities, Chessire. I'm still the same Sabriel you knew before."
Mishka lets one of the other kittens on the ground "Go with dad."
Yayelle shrugs at Mishka
Sabriel sets down the girl aswell, letting her stand with her brother
Chessire smiles "Aye, i suppose so... Mishka didn't change either." Mishka grins at Chessire
Mishka says "Hi, Yayelle. I'm Mishka, and this is my husband, Sabriel Cheshire."
Yayelle looks to Chessire overwhelmed by all these new faces before saying "Hello"
Sabriel notices Yayelle's expression and backs away slightly with his kits
Yayelle nods to Sabriel "Is he family of Barike?"
Chessire notices Yayelle's stress and pulls her close to her explaining "This is Mishka, a very good frined... and her husband, Sabriel. He is lord Barike's son...
Yayelle looks Sabriel over
Mishka says "Do you know him?"
Yayelle shakes her head "We never met" Yayelle looks to Chessire "Chessire said Barike might help me"
Chessire says "Lady Purrty was Yayelle's godmother... so i thought Barike would naturally care about her..."
And after talking about it for a while making sure to give Yayelle some time to adjust Mishka and Sabriel decided to take Yayelle into their family and back to Ojaveda and wait there untill they could find Barike Cheshire of the House of Cheshire who was away for business but they were sure he wouldn't be away long. Yayelle was sad to leave Chessire who had been so kind to her but with three "siblings" to play with during the travel to Ojaveda she was soon more relaxed then she had been for ages.
