As soon as they were before the Queen it was easy to tell something had gone wrong or she knew this wasn't just a show. Her top guards were with her, not that Thalion didn't think he couldn't handle the number but this would prove to be a challenge or more of one then first thought. As Mizuki spoke a few words Thalion was busy marking who he needed to dispose of first once things did start to go through.

He had a advantage of at least sparring most of her personal guard over the year but that hardly meant that he could tell what they were capable of when it came to life or death. He never said a word though, so long as Mizuki's end went well it didn't matter. The only thing that mattered was that the Queen was disposed of, after that they could worry about her lackies.

His thoughts came to a halt at the woman's words of 'precious'. He felt like he wanted to vomit right there, if Mizuki's plan failed he was still going to try to rip her head from her spine just to prevent those words ever escaping her lips again. Though for the time being he kept his urge to shudder at her voice to himself as he let Mizuki keep up with the talking. He had to focus anyway, it had to be enough to keep her attention... but at the same time he could afford to waste too much energy or else he'd be useless against the small army of guards she had with her.

He waited a few moments for the mist Mizuki had cast to settle in before starting this so called display, most of them being moves that were a complete waste of time and energy. Sure they could be tinkered with or mastered into some form of a attack but there were less wasteful ways to do each one. It was up to him to hold this distraction and allow Mizuki the time he needed to set up his end of this plan.

The torches dimmed all at once nearly cutting all of the light out of the room. This would help keep the attention on his little display instead of Mizuki. Fire was rather bright in darkened areas. In most cases the darkness would help in combat as well... but seeing as he was put up against other dark elves this was hardly the case. Sight in the darkness... but at the same time the fire would prove more then useful. Night sight also meant that sudden flashes would have a longer recovery rate.

For the time being he kept most of the display simple just creative enough to be entertaining. But this wouldn't last long, such small displays he was merely waiting and buying time for Mizuki. Sooner or later the Queen would speak up and he'd have to start using things that required energy to cast and hold.
