It was hard to resist the sleepy rumbling of his voice -beckoning. So instead of paying any attention to the temptation she turned, -trying to take in everything she could of this space that was to be hers. Thiers. However this strange engagement was to work -being the bride of a dragon. "But there is so much I haven't seen yet. This place is… magical."
His reply was a snort of exasperation. "Will you not rest until you have explored every inch of our room?"
She paused for a moment, -feeling his words wash over her with quiet, nonchalant implications, before shaking them off like drops of water and continuing her exploration.
"It's unreal." she said instead, light fingers tracing up the image of a warrior with flowing hair the color of sea grass, and ancient armor in shades of white and blue who twisted his up the walls -forever caught in the middle of some great battle. "He looks like you plucked him right out of time."
"He is there to tell a story." The spirit of the Kohaku River told her idly, though made no move to elaborate further. So she followed the painting around the room with her eyes, trying to figure out this new riddle.
"I don't understand." she told him finally, trying to make sense of what she saw.
"It makes no difference, Chihiro,"he replied after a time -his voice heavy with the slow drawl of sleep. "Though I know the knowledge of it's mystery will amuse you until you've managed to riddle it out."
Note: Sorry I've not been able to update -I was rather sick and was not going to make the effort when looking at my computer screen made my head start to throb. But I'm feeling better now, so I'll of course be posting as I have the opportunity to write more. As always though, Reviews are a very nice thing to leave, and they make the author feel good and want to write more. And I've really not been getting a lot of feedback on this piece. Do you like it? Do you not? Questions?
