[Kaguya]

The elder nodded “You are from separate casts...” he began to move out of the room “It is said your mate will be tainted” he say warmly, amongst the other elders he was like the one that was classed as the black sheep, he was more free flowing and understanding of things than the others. Though they believed, he was too weak of heart to hold the position of elder he was accepted because of the wealth of knowledge he had.

He stopped hearing his son’s words and sighed “If only you knew some of the waking nightmares I’ve had since I was told Nobuo... Please remember your words if anything unforeseen happens” his words filled with sorrow and worry. He had to live with the loss of his child once and was more likely to end his own life and ruin his position as an elder than let his son fall into the despair (Dis pear XD) he once had.

He smiled brightly hearing him state that he felt well “I am glad, it seems like the medicine is working after all” he sounded excited that he had asked for a feast.

He knew she would have questions about the night before and how their ‘tools’ where and he’d happily answer he was just so happy at the moment he couldn’t care less if the rest of the universe was falling apart his world was complete once more.

Fumiko remained bowed she felt the elder’s gaze upon her and believed a punishment was on it’s way for being in the room, for disrupting Nobuo and for wearing materials and colours she wasn’t permitted to. On hearing his words her eyes went wide she felt blessed that she was given such gifts though it crossed her mind why she was given them, but she wasn’t about ask in case he changed his mind.

Waiting till the elder left before standing, her blood ruby eyes looking to him “What would you like to eat?” her words where calm her voice respectful as she spoke heading to the box filled with scrolls, moving a few she held out one “The scrolls on the laws and traditions...” she looked down and bit her lip for a second “If you want I could tutor you” her voice showed she was scared since such a thing was never heard of and she had no idea how he would take to being taught by a tainted
