Riann made it to a small arena area next to the garden. Some nobles were bustling around. She walked towards one of the racks and grabbed her sword. It was silver blade with a black hilt, that had swirls of white on it. She approached a dummy and began to practice. Each of her hits were exact. Almost too perfect.

The gardener question Thatcher on why he wasn’t taking his expensive looking gloves off. Thatcher simply shrugged in response and continued on his job. It would have been a great shock if he began working barehanded and the grass/flowers began to shrivel and die.
Riann stabbed her sword into the dummy, some nobles and ladies stopping and watching her in surprise. Not many girls could fight, so it surprised some. She looked over from her spot and saw Thatcher working in the garden.

Once Thatcher finished with the weeds, he stood and wiped his gloves clean on a cloth. The gardener gave him a few more instructions and he nodded, taking up a rake and heading toward the other side of the guarded to rake up a small area of leaves.
She shook her head and turned around, pulling her sword out. Riann continued to practice, her blue eyes taking on a darker shade. Some swirls of darkness crept out and shadows ran around the garden past Thatcher and the gardener.
Hayden stood to the side, watching Riann carefully.
//I cant come up with a legitimate reason for her to be here so I guess I can continue the whole bodyguard idea
( Yeah, if you'd like to. She'd probably be Riann's closest friend too )
( Oh I changed her powers. She can control darkness/shadows and make things out of them. She aligns with fear if you guys want to do alignments )

As Thatcher worked, his noticed things moving out of the corner of his eyes. He glanced over toward the movement at a patch of shadow. Are those moving?, he thought. He leaned the rake up against the tree for a moment, slowly approaching the patch, his gloved hand reaching out to touch one of strange tendrils.
(Tell me when Zack is needed, I’ll throw him in.)

//Okay
“Riann,” Hayden said, walking up. “I think you’re freaking out some people. Calm down a little.”
As Thatcher touched them, the shadow moved away, morphing into something bigger. A creature of some sort. It seemed to be moving off of the wall. The shadow opened it's mouth, and growled, it's fangs long and dark.

(Sounds good, I’ll say that Thatcher aligns with ambition.)
//Wait, what’s aligning mean?

Thatcher’s eyes widened as he took a stumbling step backwards. “What the hell?!” He exclaimed, both terrified and intrigued by the creature.
(When can I toss in Raven?)

“Don’t worry, it’s fine,” she shouted to Thatcher before turning back to Riann. “Come on, breathe.”

“Don’t worry, it’s fine,” she shouted to Thatcher before turning back to Riann. “Come on, breathe.”
Thatcher heard the woman call to him, but it didn’t ease his nerves completely. He clenched his jaw, reminding himself that it was just a shadow, it was completely harmless.
"S-sorry." She stammered, pulling back the shadow. "I didn't realize. . . " Riann trailed off, sheathing her sword.

Thatcher looked around, his eyes landing on Rainn and the other woman. What was happening here?
