"welcome back yo-" "Alister" he coughed, "yes Uh Alister" the fae guard replied, "what was that?" Keira asked, "It's nothing, Fae usually address each other differently then humans" Keira nodded unsure of much, she took that in, although now walking down the entry hall with a guard following her and Alister made her feel as if she was being taken to a court house or prison.

"Aeden's inside, Your- Alister" the guard coughed, "thank you Percival" the large doors opened and the Alister flew through, Keira on the other hand followed behind, walking.  An older, frailer faerie lay across a throne of jewels and amber, she basked in the light of sun, her pale ash hair, and golden Amber eyes seemed to stare into Keira when her presence was noted.

"Zephyr, you've returned, I've missed you, how long has it been? Five moon cycles?" Keira grew confused, she looked at a reddened Alister, "who's she talking too?" at Keira's question the fae seemed to laugh, sitting up, Keira saw her wings looked like liquid amber, encrusted with pearls and clear quartz jewels, then Keira noticed, one her wings was broken, it looked almost torn or cracked not completely through the middle of the wing, fresh gossamer used as a bandage to keep it from ripping further.

"I'm talk to his highness Prince Zephyr, or have you forgotten your own name Ze?" The fae smirked, "No Aeden, I was yet to tell Keira the title this world has given to me" he sounded annoyed, "forgive me, I didn't know lovers kept secrets such as that" her apology seemed genuine, Keira guesses fae were blunt when it came to these things.
"So you're a prince? Alister looked at her, "I am, I would have told you it's just-" "don't." Alister blanched, "there's already to much going through my head, let's save this for another time?" Keira smiled but he could see her tiredness.

"Alright."
