Miano had brought in his water bucket when his mother stopped right in front of him. She pointed over across the way to the house of the Mambecks. She had been wondering why all the screaming stopped. She ordered Miano to go across the street but he denied and just went on in the house. Miano was very sheltered and didn't have many friends. Being tall, black and scrawny with a face only his mother could love he wasn't admired by most. Miano did have one acquired skill though; he worked under Janelle who happened to work secretly under Lord William. Miano gathered information from the palace under an alias. Twanria had seen Miano in the palace but never took notice to him. Though Twanria was a commoner herself she acted as if she was above all her servants and ladies in waiting. Miano passed looks toward Twanria occasionally but she didn't take notice to him. Maine's double life consisted of working as a highly talented artist and an agent under the great Janell. Miano's life was lonely though he was always busy. He painted in a wirily lit room with no one around, while he did solo assignments in the castle.

Miano didn't have women in his life because they didn't interest him; he had other fanciers. He berried himself into his work but when Richard's mother began to give labor, he noticed all the people venturing over there and he thought he might have a chance at making some friends. Miano tried to cross the road, which wasn't quite wide, but that journey from his land to theirs was too much for his feeble mind to take. Twanria was seen staring out the kitchen window and she spotted Miano on his family gates. She waved to him because she felt it her place. Instead of waving back Miano turned his pimple ridden face away and walked inside. Twanria thought it strange but she didn't dwell on it, she was too excited for the joy of the new children in the house. Miano was inside banging his head on the wall when there was a knock on his door. His mother went to the door to find that a young man and women by names of Julian and Natalie were selling basket garlands. Miano walked to the door to see a young and fair maiden with short, dark blonde hair that was untamed, smiling at him. To her right was a strong, bucktoothed boy with jet-black hair and pure white skin smiling just the same. They both were wearing full blue, Natalie with her long dress and Julian in light blue armor.

"Hello my name is Natalie," said Natalie, "We are selling wicker garland baskets madam. This is my partner Julian who is going to be fighting in the upcoming war. We thought to sell these baskets and tell the news of the war."

"My name is Miano," He said still staring at Julian's fine blue armor, "Are you sure about the upcoming war".

"We are positive," said Natalie, "We are part of an elite knight service that works under Lord William."

"Yes, I am head commander," applied Julian, "I work with all the men in the kingdom training them."

"Would you like to come in for a moment?" asked Miano.

"No we can't." replied Julian, "We have to go to the other houses on this road but you are welcome to join us."

Miano backed up but then decided he could stand to make some friends especially Julian. They walked across the street and knocked on the door.
