Thread: Wife of the Dark Lord (w/Kosmik_Khaos)

Her eyes excitedly looked around as he lead her to the festival. For years she had watched the city below as well as it's people from behind the stone confines of the castle. Now she was finally down here and with them. She just couldn't stop smiling as she took in all the sights and smells. Her gaze went back to him when he started speaking. With a bright smile she replied,A bit. I've heard stories but looking at it, it's hard to see it as small farm village. It's changed so much! Even from when I first arrived. It's grown so much! Her gaze once again started wandering around as they grew closer to the actual festival site. Slowly, it transformed from the everyday city scape, to bright colors and lively music. Various tents were around, performers were going about their talents to amaze crowds, stalls were set up to sell various nick-knacks. At the center of it all was a large space where a crowd of people came to dance. She didn't even respond to him. Happily, she charged forward, bringing him along with their entwined hands. Eliza felt like she was a young naive girl again. There was a bit of a skip in her step as she jogged through the crowds. Her attention was everywhere. She'd linger for a bit at a location before seeing something else and quickly recapturing his hand and dragging him along. Eliza would never move too far from his side, the only time she'd ever leave his side would be to grab something to bring back and show. Finally, after a full hour and a half of running to and fro, there was one thing that seemed to hold her attention strictly. At some point during a firebreather show, she had spotted a store inside one of the tents. She of course grabbed him and brought him with her as she went inside. It was a vast array of mysterious widgets. Thought it was the type that seemed to mesmerize her. A couple of people wandered inside as well, each one toying with the strange devices to see what they do. Her hand let go of his as she wandered over to a couple of little widgets. Looking at them, she swore she had seen others like this before, yet she couldn't quite remember where. They were very familiar though. Perhaps before she had become even an advisor maybe. Not even in her old king's land had she seen little widgets like this before. Somewhere however, she knew she had seen these before. Picking one up she, like the others, toyed with it for a bit. However, when she was tone poking and toying with the parts of the strange device, she channeled her powers into it. Now she started to remember where she had seen these things. While she was a student, a friend had introduced her to little devices called 'Magical Puzzels'. It worked much like a brainteaser toy or rubix cube. You toyed with it to try and figure out how to reach a certain goal. At her magical influence the device came to life and a few parts of the device started moving. At this she narrowed her eyes, seeing the challenge. Again she toyed and moved the parts before again channeling her powers. Some of the same parts moved, some didn't. Finally, as she was toying with the device she chuckled before she said,Sorry i've been all over the place. I haven't acted like this since I was a student at the College. In fact I haven't seen these things since my College days. The style of it, I think I may even know who made these. Though I just can't remember the name right now... She messed with it some more before she said,I swear I know the solution to this one, if I can just remember how to do it. Again she meddled with before she said,This festival is amazing. There's so much to do and see! Have you visited this festival frequently, my lord? Her fingers moved and adjusted the parts of the device before she tested her magic again. It was a process where sometimes there was progress and sometimes there was regression. Still, she continued to fiddle with the small device.
