"And isn't this, exactly where you'd like me, I'm exactly where you'd like me, you know," Dae sang, her voice ringing throughout the gloomy shipyards pleasantly. She paced the boardwalk, waiting patiently for someone, who, she didn't know. She was used to extreme weather, and therefore she wasn't cold. "Hello?" She echoed, blinking thoughtfully.

"Hello," a voice repeated back to her, with an air of friendliness and a much larger spice of mocking. His long dark hair, brown-though-nearly-black, was tied back at the nape, and his face was cool and watchful. The eyes, a reflective hue of amethyst, hinted that he was not entirely human, whatever he seemed. They were eyes that laughed, even though you might not know the joke. A elegant midnight blue trench coat concealed his clothing, as well as kept him dry in this miserable rain. The rain making him miserable by the way, not the rain itself being miserable. It was probably very happy rain.
With one gloved hand on the hand of a closed umbrella like a cane, the person appraised her silently, like she was a mildly interesting statue at a museum.

She bowed her head slightly. "I am Dae. You are, I assume, the Master Teacher the headmaster told me about who is going to take me to school, correct?" She asked, knowing she was likely to get a sarcastic response. She studied him as he studied her, tucking a lock of her dark maroon hair behind her pale, slightly elongated ear. She was especially mesmerized by his eyes. Dae watched him slightly warily, unsure of what to do next or what he would do next.

"Quite correct, or so you assume," he replied with a touch of smile. It wasn't exactly a nice smile, though some could view it as pleasant. "I do think that perhaps there might be some potential to you, better than my last student anyway. (Fled, oh the poor little lamb) Where you end depends on where you start, after all."
"You have a fair amount of darkness in you," he noted, his eyes still on her like a stalking cat. There was nothing that said he was interested in her body though. Just thought I'd mention that to all you paranoid perverts... or maybe that's just Zawa.

Her eyes widened. He frightened Dae slightly. "I believe we haven't formally introduced ourselves yet, sir. I'm Daelaryia Xen'Ryick." She bowed her head again, contemplating his comments. She watched him warily, seriously thinking about running away, and then she heard him speak again.
"Well, I suppose I do, being a demon of light and dark," she said a bit jokingly, watching him watch her, still mesmerized bye his astonishing eyes.

"A pleasure to meet you," he said with a graceful though probably not-so-serious bow. "It isn't every day you meet someone with such a confliction under their skin. Shall we go to the school? There isn't really any reason to wait, unless you have questions."
As he said this, the Master Teacher walked over to the edge of the lake, which was oddly calmer than usual, and started to walk across it as if it were solid. The steel gray water made no note of his presence, and did not even ripple.

"Well met, sir," Dae said, smiling slightly. She did not know what to make of this man. He was like a mystery, one of Dae's favorite things. "No, I suppose it's not, but I hear the school is full of unusual people, and no, I have no questions," she replied.
When he started walking across the water, Dae's eyes widened even more, and her eyes were big in the first place. She didn't know if she was able to do that, as there was hardly any water in Zmaiya. "How do you do that?" Dae asked curiously, a little bit embarrassed. Should she have known this before?

"I thought you had no questions," the man smiled. "It's alright if you aren't so talented, but we could take a boat. Climb on in," he instructed, gesturing to a boat bobbing nearby. There was 'Rhea wuz here' scratched into the side of it. Those childish vandals.
(Be back soon... or eventually. I'm going vandal hunting.)

Dae laughed. "Well, that was before you started walking on water. Sorry, I'm training to be a Time Mage, not a water elementalist," she smiled. She wondered who this 'Rhea' was, but pushed the thought aside.
((LMFAO Okay.))

"When time comes to a stop, all objects become immobile. This could provide quite a few possibilities for walking across water, if I'm not mistaken," he said. "Or you could slow the water down, if that's more within your ability. It would be wetter, but still adequate if you moved at a brisk pace," the teacher further suggested. He sounded as if he thought he was explaining this to a small child.
"Whatever floats your boat, or in this case, yourself." The boat, obviously, needed little help in floating.

Dae frowned. She learned this from her grandfather, but for some reason, this place made her forget. "I know, it's just that my grandfather only let me study theory. He seemed to think I would get injured . . ." She said laughing. "I know what to do to slow it down, so let me try." Dae concentrated on the water, and hesitantly stepped on. It worked! She continued walking, "Come on . . . Wow, I'm stupid. I forgot to ask your name, unless you're one of those people who don't tell their students their names," she shouted, laughing.

"You'll be more than injured if you hesitate to do it when needed. Theory is a nice thing, but there's a limit," he responded. Example: Communism. "As for my name, I have no problem telling you, but I seldom answer questions that aren't asked." The teacher continued his stroll across the dimpling waves with her at his side. It was a fairly nice day, with a deep, hoary overcast and wind whistling through the surrounding forests. The calm before storm always embodied that calming effect.
With any luck the restless spirits of these waters thought so as well. How unlucky a visit would be. Oh dear, was that foreshadowing?

Dae sighed. It was obvious this man didn't think much of her. "I'm not a child. I know there's a limit, I just don't know where it is. I need to test things for myself," she said softly, remembering what little testing she was abe to do back home. Her face broke into a smile as she listened further. "Well, then, O Master Teacher of mine, what is your name?" She asked mockingly, still strolling calmly at her teacher's side.

The Master Teacher didn't grace her 'child' comment with a response. The response wouldn't thrill her, or even make her remotely happy, so why go out of one's way to upset these young races?
"You can call me Rell," he advised her, sidestepping her nearsighted excuses of trial and error. "You couldn't pronounce my real name anyway. So, what are your ambitions?"
Prying, probing? Why no, not at all. Just curious, a healthy curiosity keeps us human, after all.

She noted with a small smirk, shaking her head. Adults always treated her as a child. "Well, then, Rell, my ambitions are to honor my grandfather's wishes of me becoming a Time Mage, and to prove that I can overcome the 'confliction under my skin', as you so eloquently put it," Dae said, not being sarcastic at all.
