He blinked a few times watching her walk off, what in the world was she up to now? He shook his head a little before going about his own direction, he had something he wanted to do before any of the nobles managed to find him again. Mainly being going to the training yard to kill the slight frustration he had from all of this before he really snapped on someone.
He figured he had a few hours before the dinning was done with. So hopefully things would go well and he could have another few hours of peace to himself. Though he didn't have the grounds to himself as there were a few of the guards about.
"well well if it isn't the prince himself." One seemed to laugh and taunt at the same time. Zek frowned a little before grabbing a sword from the rack on the side wall and swinging it once. "Yeah yeah laugh all you want.." he sighed out. The guard shook his head a little "Not really laughing at you young lord, more of laughing at the fact they try to force you into a role your obviously not willing to serve in."
Zek cracked his neck to the side listening before shrugging slightly and holding a stance of sorts towards one of the targets. "I don't have a say in the matter... though it is good to hear someone knows what hell I'm going through." He said before striking at the target, forcing the blade to cut it all the way through. Though he seemed to look at the sword afterwards with a slight glare.
"I should do that before I get abducted again as well.." he spoke to himself before replacing the blade as he started to walk away from the grounds. The guards seemed a little confused with what just happened, though they weren't going to question him either.
He hadn't seen Elvara in a while now but he shrugged it off figuring she was resting or doing something else. He had managed to make it back to his room and then all the way to the forge area without being noticed. This alone was making his day. There was one other race that the drows of this area got along with the best, the dwarfs. It was common the two trades materials or knowledge on certain aspects.
There was a older looking dwarf in the forge that Zek greeted almost happily. "Aye, so they already have ye back here?" The dwarf seemed to laugh before going back to his business he was doing of forging whatever weapon or armor he was working on at one of the few forges in this area.
Zek sighed a little before holding a hand out towards the hearth as the flame seemed to follow his movement slightly. "If i could get away I would.. tsk. Hell I'd trade places with a damned commoner if it freed me of this damn curse" he hissed out before setting his weapon up so he could work on it a little.
The dwarf shrugged a little listening to him. "Ay.. one day laddy, you'll find your place in the world and stop fighting the very pull of the goddess' will." Zek frowned a little, he hated the fact that the best metal smith in the lands talked in such riddles. "And don't ye give me that face, you'll know when yer meant to know. Be satisfied till then, besides you even have a gift most couldn't dream of."
He nodded a little, he was probably right he had been about most things, just like the old man. "I guess.. I wouldn't call it a gift more of a curse.. heh" The dwarf sighed a little before turning to face Zek. "I'm not talking about yer blood boy, I mean your ability with the arts." Zek shrugged a little at the idea of it "i guess, if its so damn great why does our beloved Queen seem to keep me from this very area?"
