"I don't care what he says, you need some fresh air......so lets go get you some."
A few minutes later, after the cook talked down the green guard inside the elevator, Ema helped the girl walk out the tower door and into the gardens outside it.
------------------------------------------
"Drells!! He, he said......" Ringo randomly stopped in mid-sentence, causing Kaiyles eyebrows to drop down a bit. "Continue...." he said, but Ringo just smiled dementedly at the young prince, before standing up from the bench and placing both fist on his hips. "Oh no! But are you really sure you want to hear my knowledge? That left with ol' Drells down that drawbridge!? If so, what exactly will you do me, deary!?"
Kaiyle sighed slightly and then stood as well. "I don't have time for your rhymes and riddles today.....tell me, or don't, I could careless.", and with that the prince turned around and began to walk back towards the palace. But he didn't get far at all before Ringo clumsily ran in front of him. "Oh don't be like Sir, Prince, Kaiyle, my lord of lords! This is of importance, it could be of sorts a kou, not of your father and not of you, but of the system you love, control power of, i think Tenner and Drells, wish to create a kind of hell......."
Kaiyles face actually showed a slight bit of concern. Most would ignore Ringos rhyming riddles ....concluding them as nothing more than insane ramblings from a former general gone mad. But Kaiyle knew that while the man might sound a bit crazed, his rhymes were always riddled with truths, the old man simply wanted those he told them, to play along in trying to understand them...........meaning, whatever the man knew, wouldn't come out in one sitting.
But the prince could tell he obviously knew of something, between Drells and Tenner.........which caught Kaiyles attention.
"Something...between Tenner and Drells you say?" the prince whispered, causing Ringo to clap his hands together twice, and smile widely. "There you go.....and for now, here i go!" he chimed in with, before hobbling his way quickly back over towards Kreggan.
Kaiyle merely watched as the old man left........he knew he'd get little more, if anything, from Ringo today.........however it was worth a try in his mind. But before he could even move a full foot towards the old man, something caught his eye....
Ema........and the princess.
His concern quickly transferred from Ringo, to Ema.......as he began to jog towards the old cook. "What is this!? What about kept under lock and key do you not understand!??" Kaiyle yelled towards the woman, which caused her to frown. "Don't yell at me like such, you act as if she can escape.......do what you wish with me, but let the girl stay out for just a little while?"
Compassion was not an emotion Kaiyle cared to show much........but he was also one who couldn't argue with reason.....and much to his annoyance, Ema was right - where could the woman go? Even if she chose to run and hide, or manged to wander out the eyesight of the guards, she'd be stuck on the grounds........and it's not as if he took orders from Tenner and his father with any great value all the way out here......she he relented.
"She has ten minutes.....and that's all. Kaiyle snapped, reluctantly, hoping in the back of his head that the young woman wouldn't get the idea to hide or wander off.....the last thing he'd feel like doing was spending the last half his day hunting the girl down.
As the prince made his way back into the palace via the open kitchen door, Ema shook her head and then guided the young woman through a small batch of flowers and towards the bench Kaiyle and Ringo had been sitting on moments earlier.
"Don't worry, he'll let you out more.........i think." she said, before standing.
"I think i'll go make you a snack of some sort.........enjoy your time out, and stay in the guards view.......don't do anything foolish, for your own sake dear." Ema said, before making her way back into the palace.
OOC: *cough* I say, wander off.....a hunt-you-down game would be fun! [lols] *cough*
