" They have done all they could to evade Death+s purge for so many thousands of years that it evades our comprehension. " The Sage noted gently. " I am sure Death hearing about their most recent hideout is but a Beings' equivalent of bad Monday. I believe you'll strive for your best to keep that secret safe, but I warn thee - be mindful of the fact this is your journey, not a business trip. You have immense power in your hands, I am aware - but that does not put burdens upon your shoulders to exhaust yourself to Death by using them, literally. Nobody would like Death to meet you so soon. "he leaned across the table, his intent look reaching deep within meadow king, so much so it felt there was little point to argue with what his sharp penetrating vision. " If this winter was time as hard for you as it was for me and my friends - then I will tell you what people that love you want from you. Be gentle to yourself. Listen to your needs and desires, and take time to let your stressed out soul breathe. It's okay to think of yourself, and I will tell you what I deem Falcon hopes from you more than anything - he hopes you will try a little bit, for a change, to be as gentle and patient with yourself, as you are with others.. " he grinned "...  and not just find another location to run around solving problems of other people the whole time. "

"My soul breathes with music, and can relax most when I can help others with it," Svarik said gently, but firmly. "It is my vacation, and that is how I want to spend it."

[VisAnastasis]

" I am glad to hear it, then. I myself, am too of such character, alas, to the eternal dissatisfaction of my friends that would desire me to rest sometimes, at least. " The Sage nodded lightly with some newfound respect to him. " So, what are your plans for today, sire? My two brothers in arms are currently at the royal palace on the top Hill, taking care of some state business with my wife. The Spirit guest I spoke you of is making you a special hair dye, as I promised he would. It will be ready around noon, so may I know what shall you suppose to do until then? "he bid, as he casually started to eat the breakfast.

[Mirach]

"The injured sea Being... since I can't breathe underwater, or stop breathing by choice, would I be able to get close enough to it for it to hear my music?" Svarik inquired.

" You would wish to meet it, then? " Man inquired seriously. "Alright, then... It may carry some risks on my side from your hands, but as a healer of souls, I feel I can trust you with it, and shall allow it. I will have to insist on coming with you, though, to make sure meeting goes smoothly and nobody feels threatened. " he paused then, observing king intently, before he seemed to have decided on something. " It's not as near to the surface for tones to reach it comfortably, but.. For the sake of practicality, let's say, how should I put it... How much *would* you like to go check out the world underwater, little Nightingale? "

[Mirach]

"Let's say I'm very curious about it," Svarik said with a cautious interest.

[VisAnastasis]

" Let's say that I have quite bits of sea deities blood mixed up in my veins, alright, which comes out in lot of subtle ways. Let's say, then, hypothetically, that someone of my heritage can be quite good... Water bender. " he moved with his finger across the tea cup from which he was drinking, and the water swirled and moved slightly with ease, under his subtle gesture. " That being said, I can make an air bubble for two of us on the shore, and then we could just walk under the water with air surrounding us, and sea water would stay its distance from us, while we could just stay dry and walk to that place along ocean floor. " he shrugged innocently. " Yes, nonchalantly, let's say it's a trick I often used when I would be going on a date. "he winked. " Can swipe a lady of her feet, literally, if she doesn't walk carefully across see bottom greenery. Who knows, you may even find a neat shell or two, probably still alive one, of course. "

[Mirach]

"Something like that would be a really interesting experience. I see how it can be popular with the ladies... It gives both impression and privacy. I don't want to disturb the livng shells, but it would be great to walk on the bottom of the sea. That's not something one can do every day..."

[VisAnastasis]

" Certainly, unless you know a quite peculiar Sea Deity, or a water bender, it tends to be rare experience. " Sage agreed soberly. " So, when are you interesting in tagging along with me, little Nightingale? Certainty not before you have a good breakfast. Try to be more like your sweet lovely Xia, I advise you. She is already finishing her, let's see... " he beamed with a tender soft smile. " Her fourth plate, I believe. "

[Mirach]

Svarik chuckled. "She doesn't know measure. And since she doesn't really need it, I would say that food is a hobby to her..." He then focused on eating too, finishing his plate quickly.

[VisAnastasis]

" If she needs no outer intake, then indeed, she must be quite healthy, and if she eats so much, she must be so young that she had no yet time to pick up on the fact ones around her do not eat nearly as much. and that it's not deemed normal.. It delights me to watch her. Please, do let her feast. I am awfully glad I can afford to offer her all this. " he bid, and indeed, a cute little fox, not knowing any measure, made er way through the interesting meals and ate all the remaining food on the table, complete with the bones, which she crunched up with ease with her sharp teeth.
She then turned to king, while still being all smeared up with food remnants like a kitten, and then she turned to Sage playfully, grinning at him widely, still not understanding lot of word, but understanding concept of hospitality and that lovely thoughtful food was provided by him and showing she was grateful by nod.

[Mirach]

"I hope she doesn't get spoiled and I will be able to explain her that one can't always eat that much..." Svarik said fondly.

[VisAnastasis]

" Yes, they can get a little spoiled when young, I imagine. Even not so young can get a bit spoiled - my demon friend for example, has a habit of stress eating, and eats like a horse too, when he's stressed out. It's certainly relief I am a rich man and don't have to tell him no. " Sage chuckled a little, before he added cunningly to meadow king. " I have two advises for you. First, make sure she never lacks something she desires, and feels neglected therefore. Neglect can lead to lot of emotional hurt, and demons are very sensitive to that. Second, however - well, you can't let her eat your whole house down. Since she is so young, and impressionable, I may have a tip that will help you gradually teach her to take measure. Put her in position where people around her are hungry, and she is given food. She is sensitive, and will feel hunger of others, and that will be unpleasant to her. " he shrugged innocently. " Better to teach her early on what hunger means, since I am quite sure her young mind can not yet comprehend you eat for anything but pleasure of eating,  and that by taking so much for herself, somebody else stays hungry. For her, food just tastes nice, I doubt she can connect lack of it with malnourished, starvation, or dying. Help her see people around her feeling hunger is a form of neglect to them, and she should be able to relate to that, and learn to measure herself so others could have plenty to eat too. This way, I fear, she'll eat until she cleans up all of your supplies. "

[Mirach]

"That's a good advice," Svarik said approvingly. "I heard you provide food for the needy as well? Maybe we could have lunch or dinner there..."

[VisAnastasis]

" Nobody dares rob me or attack me anymore, so it's quite safe in my mansion, so I set up public kitchens and shelter in the courtyard in garden, so I can keep close eye on it and make sure everyone is tended to well. " he replied with more proud content tone. " We could have our next meal there, if it suits you. "

[Mirach]

"Yes," Svarik nodded. "I would like to see it anyways."

[VisAnastasis]

" Alright, now that we have sated our hunger and thirst, would you like us to go visit the Sea Deity, if all three of you are in the mood for it? "

[Mirach]

"I am," Svarik nodded. "Should we bring some gifts?"

[VisAnastasis]

" Normally, yes, but you're bringing it your music. That is plenty enough gift on its own. " Sage replied virtuously as he stood up so they could get ready to go. " However... " he grinned then. " A basket of local fruit will suffice as well, if we find any other Spirits or Demons around it - as, while it's likely they may scatter in fear when they sense presence of strangers, they will probably come by afterwards when they sense no danger, and appeasing them with fruits has so far worked splendidly for me. "

[Mirach]

"Can we stop then on the market to buy the fruit, if it's on the way?" Svarik asked. 

[VisAnastasis]

" Market's in the middle part of the city, not exactly on the way, but not far either. If you don't want me to provide you with fruits, but go to the market, however - well, cliff that faces the sea is not far by. You could, if I may note, just ask your lovely Xia to help you jump down to the water, and I can water bend, so really - I can, you know... " he waved away with his hand innocently. " Just raise bunch of water from the ocean and have it lower me to surface myself, so we can dive in right away. I don't have problems with such trivial little things, and people are already used to me showing off. "

[Mirach]

"Are they? Alright then. I would like to buy the fruits myself, otherwise it doesn't feel like a proper gift, so we can go that way."

[VisAnastasis]

Sage obediently led them to the market. He was apparently very well known and revered for his powers, talents and services, and he was beaming in his pride and solemn dignity as people across the streets were greeting him and his guests, and bowing deeply before him as they went on, knowing his own importance and value and enjoying it being appreciated.

[Mirach]

In that Svarik saw a similarity with Conrad, and felt a bit sad that his semai can't enjoy the appreciation this openly. "So which fruits do the Beings of the ocean like?" he asked to distract himself from such thoughts.

[VisAnastasis]

Sage had showed him couple of stands with some fresh, then some dried fruit,  with elegance and certainty making sure to help him pick up those whichever his ocean friends would enjoy best.
