This is new to her- in the few crownings that she has witnessed, this is the first time people of the outside world were allowed to participate as part of he ceremony. But, by the looks of the caravan and the guards that were given protetion duty, they were important. Something is going on in the palace. While making her way to Niro, and amusing herself with his map of the planes, she hears the horns of the royal messenger. He is making his way to your quarters at this very moment. [ooc]Your office is located above the royal library- which is attached to the outside of (adjacent to) the palace. there is no way of entering the palace from this library. you have to exit the library and walk into the palage gates from the front. The bottom floor is open to the public, just walls and walls of books. The second floor is the wizard's domain- where they gather and read and exchange knowledge and information, buy and sell rare components, and joke about tehir last adventure. Floor 3 is the potions and labs. floor 4 is lesser mage's office:the ones that think they are all powerful, but Vriseya knows them to be far inferior to her, and even Niro. You have floor 5 all to yourself. This is only an extension of the royal library. The real important books and articles are located in the palace itself. Being a close friend of the royal family, you alone are allowed to to visit it- and besides, who in their right mind would stop you? Floor six is laid empty. It houses nothing at the moment. and is also delegated to Vriseya- for nobody is allowed to come up past the forth floor.[/ooc] The royal messenger makes his way to the front foor of the library and his minstrel sounds his horn again. He shouts, "Message for the Great Vriseya!" and waits patiently outside for you to answer the call.Wolfe96:Opening his eyes at the familiar voice, Niro grins at his old mentor. "You're slipping, you know that? Your door ward was something I could have avoided. Don't you have any REAL enemies left? What was that anyway, some kind of high powered fire spell?" Turning away from Vriseya, he began to add another plane to the map -- a small, fast moving area he'd just found. At it's rate of speed compared to the multiversal core, it would probably have time that passed impossibly fast compared to the prime material plane. Turning around to face his mentor once more, just as she is about to speak, Niro cuts her off. "I found something out there. I'm SURE of it. There's a granularity to the planar space... Something is living between the planes. I think I touched it's mind. I couldn't hold onto the contact, and I lost it again when you walked in... But I'm sure I'm right." Niro absently reaches up, licks his fingers and pinches out what remains of his saffron-scented meditation candle. Smiling at the puddle of dried and drying wax left behind, he puts the candle back into his robe. After another look at the wax and a glance at his mentor -- waiting to see if she will make some comment -- he asks the question he's been dying to ask since he arrived in Kirai: "Have you looked over my letters?"Semirhage:Vriseya smiles at the arrogant apprentice, "I've skimmed your letters. I've read enough to think that you are on to something. You may even be ready for some advanced reading." She looks at the new plane he's just drawn, then points to the edges, "It's more elliptical than that. Elongate the X axis and compress the Z axis." She winks at him. Then the messenger interrupts the conversation that might have begun. She grins impishly, belying her 400+ years as she waves her hand, and thinks the command word to her wards. Niro can see a weak set of wards now, the ones he detected. Then he sees some more of her defenses, a web of them so thick that he can't tell one spell from the other. She looks at him, "Don't be so cocky next time, dear. If I hadn't keyed the wards to most of my apprentices, the majority of you would have died ages ago. Actually, I've been meaning to un-key about a hundred of so who've died in the last fifty years, but I haven't gotten around to it." She shrugs, "I'm glad you noticed the easy wards though. When you were younger, you missed them. That's progress, all right." She snaps her fingers and the wards vanish from sight, though Niro can almost feel them wrapping the room in safety. "And the wards you saw aren't even for my real enemies. There are certain people who couldn't even enter this room if they tried." She walks to the door and opens it, "Yes young man, what can I do for you?" She motions for Niro to join her at the door.</blockquote>
