Draven changed into the outfit given to her earlier and ran to the room she somehow new was Reanef's. She pulled open the doors to discover a very distraught looking Reanef. She walked carefully over to the bed where Reanef sat his head resting on his knees. She sat next to the young lord and felt compelled to brush a few strands of hair from his eyes. Reanef looked up at her with tear filled eyes that just made her want to melt.

"Wha-what's wrong…?" She asked a barely noticeable blush spreading across her cheeks.

"I had a bad dream." Reanef announced. The comment though cute somehow made Draven want to find every pillar in the castle and bang her head on it three or four times, but deciding, instead, to play the role of psychiatrist.

"Well what was the dream about?" She asked in the most soothing voice she could muster.

"It was about when Eclipse died." He sobbed, "He died saving me!"

"It wasn't your fault…." She began but was cut off by what sounded like a mouse getting caught in a trap.

"Yes it was, I got hurt and that distracted Eclipse from the danger we were still in!"

"Could you shut up for two seconds?" Draven yelled. "Stop beating yourself up over something like that! It was Eclipse's own fault not your's. He got careless and shouldn't have. Just think of the alternative but remember his job as well. You would have been killed and he would have gone through life in complete misery because it was his job to protect you!" She finished her speech with a sigh.

She looked Reanef in the eye and he looked completely bewilder. Then he began to smile which took Draven completely off guard.

"You know what you're right. I shouldn't blame myself. Eclipse wouldn't want me to. And besides with you around it's like he never left." Though the comment stung slightly it also gave her some satisfaction in being compared to Eclipse. She gave a satisfied smile and tucked Reanef into bed and headed for her room. When she was safely in her room she looked at the bloody night shirt she had been wearing just minutes before. She tossed it carelessly into the bathroom deciding to take care of it later and went to check the sheets. Luckily none were harmed, but in stead of going back to sleep she went for a stroll in the castle and wound up in the library.

Two years later Draven was still living in the Reanef castle and had taken to calling Reanef: Lord Reanef, Master Reanef, or if necessary Rea-kun. She did most of the cleaning and all of the cooking. Though she hadn't any experience in the field of culinary arts her first meal had been surprisingly delicious.

Over the years Draven had brought Castle Reanef back to it's original glory.

She also spent much of her free time in the library or teaching Reanef the more complicated spells though she had no magic. Also over the passed two years she learned many other languages some of which were fairy, gnomish, dwarf, and druid. All of which she excelled at greatly.

One day while walking through the gardens that lined the walls around Castle Reanef a particularly nasty looking demon appeared. A note in hand.

"I am looking for the lord named Reanef." It wheezed. "I have a message from the Lord Aruiled and the Council of Seers regarding the new company he keeps." He said the word company as though he would not be able to hold a civilized conversation with her with out repeating himself every ten seconds.

"I will be sure he gets the message post haste." She stated as though she expected to have to repeat herself.

He handed the note over and vanished in thick cloud of smoke. After the smoke had cleared she opened the letter and read the note. She than proceeded to reread the note, and then again until she had read the note at least ten times.

"Lord Reanef 5th ,

It is requested that you attend the next demon meeting being held two days after the full moon. The Council of Seers will be making an important announcement concerning the young girl you have taken up as an underling. And also concerning the next few months events regarding demon world. Though you have not shown up at most if not all of the demon meetings of the past fifteen years you will most likely be interested to know what the council has to say about your new company. And if you don't show up we will have to send an escort.

We expect the girl to be there as well.

Lord Aruiled,

Lord Aruiled

High Chairman in the Council of Seers,

Meruhesea(Meruhesea)"

"Two days after the full moon, that's tomorrow." Stated Draven her years of staring at the night sky finally paying off.

"Yeah, and you're going to have to go with me as well."

"Is that a problem?" Draven asked a little hurt.

"No just go find something to wear I'll see you in a bit."

"Yes sir." Draven said, and with the nod of her head she went off to go find something to wear.

F.F. to the next night….

Draven had picked out a grey long sleeved shirt. But the neckline ran down too low so she refused to wear it without a black shirt under it. The pants were plain black and the shoes were basically plain though the blood red stones on the heals gave them an elegant touch.

While waiting in the throne room for Reanef to show up Draven began to hum a song with a slow, sad melody. Once half way through it though she began to realize that she had never heard the song before in her life.

Reanef came through the door dressed in his usual demon party garb. He was looking down at his feet as though in great thought.

"Is something the matter?" Draven asked.

"No, but I'm just unsure of what everyone will think of you."

"What's that supposed to mean?"

"Nothing you just look so much like Eclipse it's unreal."

"Would you relax? I haven't been attacked by any clerics yet so I wouldn't think too much of it alright?"

And with that they left for demon world.
