The sun was setting as Thane read a interesting book. A knock echoed in the room, making Thane look up. He sighed and closed the book.
"Now what? He thought irritably, petting his Telvian Panther that was sitting next to his chair, purring.
"Come in." He said, he tried to sound friendly even though he was in an irritable mood. The doors opened to reveal a hooded female who wore black cloth. Her skin was pale, almost like the color of snow. A Raza Cobra hissed at her feet. She glared her companion, making the Cobra fall silent.
"I trust you received my letter?" She asked, her voice was airy, almost lifeless. Thane nodded. She sighed, the Cobra raised it's hood, Thane could tell the design was starting to change from the bright yellow to a bright blue.
"Merely to chat?" He thought, and gestured to one of the seats. She shook her head and approached the desk.
"I'm here on more important business then to merely chat." She said, now her voice was more deadly. The Cobra gave a deadly hiss before receiving another glare from her. She continued on "I found an orphan, she seems to be..." She paused, unsure how to describe her. "...strange." She finally said. Thane lifted his left eyebrow.
"What is this women thinking!? Orphans! In our Keep!" He thought angrily but tried to remain calm.
"An orphan you say? It is unusual to take on orphans in our keep." He started but she shook her head.
"You don't understand! She's different from the other orphans! Look at the picture I have of her!" She hissed, slamming down a picture on the table. He opened it and looked mildly surprised.
"I see..." He whispered. He laid the picture down and looked at the female, who was expecting something.
"Well...Alright, I'll arrange Master Belmos to pick up the orphan. Does she have a name?" He said before asking the female who shook her head. He sighed and looked thoughtful for a few moments.
"I wonder if she gave herself a name..." He whispered. The female crossed her arms before turning to leave.
"Wait!" Thane cried, making the female turn. He nearly got out of his chair, making his panther jump. She was quiet for a few moments.
"Well?" She asked Thane, wondering what he stopped her for.
"I think I know this girl, I think her name is Elizabeth." He said, she nodded before opening the door. The Raza Cobra lifted it's head, hissed at Thane and slid down the stairs. She looked at Thane for a moment before closing the door behind her.
Thane sighed and returned his gaze at the picture.
"The question is...where do I know you from?" He whispered, his Telvian Panther curling up to sleep.
