Lloyd sat on a stone in the forest, awaiting the others' return. He had already taken off his armor, seeing as everyone coming already knew he was an angel and it was more comfortable.
Ash flew around in the forest, collecting berries and other materials for food and to fix up some of the furniture around her her tiny fairy house. Stuffing them safely inside her satchel, she began to head home before meeting up with her new friends in the forest. After dropping everything off, she made her way towards the group's planned meeting spot and saw Lloyd the angel sitting there waiting. She flitted over and landed on his shoulder, "Hello Lloyd the angel!" She said, looking up at his face.
"Greetings, Ashera the fairy." He nodded politely in acknowledgement, sitting calmly with his hands folded in his lap.
"Are the others coming?" Ash asked, curious.
"I'm not sure, I don't have much contact with them. Although I think I saw them in the marketplace while I was at my post."
Maybelle convinced her parents that she was only going out to the market again to get some more supplies for dresses. Little did they know that she was really meeting up with her new-found friends she had made the previous day. With secret desserts tucked in her small basket, Maybelle continued her way to the clearing in the forest. She had spotted Lloyd and Ashera, and knew she was in the right place. "Hello again, friends."
"Hello." Lloyd subconsciously drew his wings closer to his back, which made them less visible. "Do you know whether the others are coming as well?"
Looking around, she realized that Tanrial and Mari weren't here yet. Maybelle deflated just a bit. "I'm not sure."
Ash, still tiny and perched on Lloyd's shoulder, sat down, her legs falling over his shoulder. "You don't need to hide your wings with us Lloyd, your secret's safe." she said looking back up at the angel's face again.
Lloyd smiled softly, relaxing his wings a bit. "I know… it's just a habit at this point. Sometimes I just wish I were normal, so I don't always have to hide my identity. It can get exhausting, and I've had some close calls where I almost revealed my wings to people who were… less than trustworthy."
"But you are special, Lloyd," Maybelle intervened. "You shouldn't have to hide who you are."
Ash thought for a second before pulling out her tiny wand. She waved it a little and Lloyd's wings disappeared. "There, now no one can see them." she stated, proud of her work. Ash noticed Lloyd's worry at the disappearance of his wings. "Don't worry, they're still there, just… invisible."
"Now you can feel safer. I hope that helps." Ash smiled up at the angel
"I wish I didn't have to, but it would definitely cause some fuss. The people wouldn't be too happy about someone who isn't human in a position of some authority. Though I'm technically not very high up yet, when I become a knight, well, if I do, then I would be. It's very risky."
Tanrial and Mari had set off on their journey to meet the others. Although Tanrial was still wearing her hood, underneath she had a blue drew with gold embodiments on it. Mari had braided her hair slightly that day. She found the others and beamed. “Hello there” she called
"Salutations." Lloyd nodded in acknowledgement, stretching his wings a bit.
Tanrial walked over, removing her hood and sat down with the group.
"So, what's been going on in your lives?" Lloyd tried to continue the conversation, not entirely sure what to say.
Mari fluttered from her perch and continued trying to braid Lloyd’s hair.
“Nothing much.” Tanrial shrugged, “You?”
"I really hate this armor sometimes…" He looked over at his armor next to him. "And being on guard duty for hours on end is incredibly dull. I just wish something more… I don't know, interesting, would happen. I just have to stand in silence for long periods of time. It gets boring really fast."
“At least you can go out into the open. I don’t want to get caught and beheaded so Mari and I stay home most of the time.” Tanrial sighed.
