The boy gives a meek wave to Miss Nae as she takes off to the air, watching her speed out of sight with the wide stare of the curious youth - he hoped he could fly like that one day. And that his wings would be so big and pretty.
When the warrior settled beside him he tensed up just a little, almost seeming to jump up into sitting, but the question seemed to ease him quite a bit. And, even more surprising, the boy scoot closer to where his little body gingerly touched to the man's arm. He nods his head, and looks to the clouds as he answered. "Father... mm, he was teaching me to read and write. We sat... we sat at his desk, and he let me use his quill and ink. I spilled the well once," he murmurs, his tone tinged with sadness at the memory. "But he didn't get mad. We just painted instead. Then we tried again. He says I'm doing good," he replies, glancing up to Jayce with something akin to pride in a small smile.

Jayce listens his expression remaining unchanged. Even if his heart breaks a little for Aechon at the memory he'd unearthed. Reaching out the paladin places a hand on Aechon's head and he ruffles the boys hair. Then he says with a smile.
"Well then perhaps you can show me how good you are."
He motions for the boy to wait and he gets up walking away. A few minutes later Jayce returns with a book of children's stories which he hands to the boy.
"It's too nice to be cooped up in the library. So we will work out here. Why don't you read me one of the stories."
Jayce settles back in the grass next to the boy.

Aechon takes the book from Jayce and peers at the cover - an inviting image that would surely get the attention of any child. He studies it for a few moments before opening it to the first few pages - mostly blank with the scrawls of author data that held no interest. He found the table of contents and peered over the names, drawing his knees up to settle the book's spine between them like a podium.
He settles on one and shuffles through the pages, watching the numbers flick by, until he finds the story. Once the title page greets him he settles himself comfortably in the grass and starts to read.
"The trees stood tall. A little cob... cobble... stone. Road ran into the trees. Along came a little girl in a red hood, heading deeper into the trees..."

Jayce listens to Aechon as the boy reads the book. He helped the boy with the more difficult words. He was a good teacher, patient and helpful. Only stepping in when Aechon asked for assistance. They would while away the afternoon like this. When the boy got tired of reading Jayce would offer to play games with him. Hide and seek or tag, anything the boy wished to play.

It was mid-afternoon when the Archangel came soaring out of the sky, landing lightly in the courtyard from whence she'd departed. She carefully removed the satchel she'd acquired to carry the games and treats in, pulling it off around her wings as she looked around for the pair of them with a bright smile.
"Hello? Jayce? Aechon? I have returned."

Aechon poked his head from the depths of some dense foliage in the courtyard, having been hiding from Jayce in a game when she returned. He offered a very quick wave, as subtle as he could manage, and then disappeared beneath the thick leaves again - the game was still on, and as a child he was determined to win!

Jayce turns to Naenia and gives her a knowing smile. Aechon may be determined to win, but the paladin knew where the boy was. There weren't many places tk hid in the courtyard. It hadn't taken Jayce long to find signs of where Aechon had climbed into the bush. Still he gives the angel a sly smile.
"Naenia. It is good you are here. I've lost Aechon, could you help me find him?"

Her eyebrows shot upward as she spotted Aechon, but her attention was distracted by Jayce's approach. She turned to the paladin, her eyes shining, and smiled at him. Then his words made her grin, and she bit back a laugh.
"Lost Aechon, you say? That is most worrisome. Yes, I will help you find him.. otherwise, we will be forced to eat these sweets all by ourselves." Her tone teasing, she moved over to the edge of the courtyard and gently deposited the satchel of goodies on a bench there. Then she focused for a few moments. It took a great deal of effort, but she'd been practicing throughout the night, and after a few seconds, her wings slowly faded away, her angelic aura suppressed greatly. She now looked to be no more than a lovely blonde woman in a dress. Giving herself a firm shake, she turned back to Jayce and smiled at him, then began the search for Aechon, peering into bushes and behind trees.
"Hmmm, I do wonder where he could have gone."

... sweets? Aechon could hardly sit still. If it was one thing to provide the greatest distraction, it was sugar. His parents had been careful on treats, but he enjoyed them greatly when provided - as any child would. He waited until Naenia had her back turned and glanced about, hoping not to see the armor of the paladin in sight.
When he thought the coast was clear, he tried to crawl out as quietly as he could manage from his hiding place and creep towards the bench where the satchel sat waiting. Provided he got there without being caught, he would carefully pluck open one side of the bag, trying to peer inside for the contents. Needless to say, his curiosity was getting the better of him.

Jayce waited until he was certain then turned. Yes there was Aechon the boys face practically inside the bag of treats. Looking to Naenia he paused, then did a double take. Her wings were gone and he holy aura was suppressed. It was odd to see her in such a way it made her seem more... Human. It was in an odd way oddly alluring. When she was angel and he a paladin there was something odd about his thoughts concerning her. As though his desire were on some level wrong. Despite what he'd said about them being perfectly normal and healthy. Seeing her as just the beautiful woman she was without the angelic side made his blood stir more than usual.
Shaking his head the large paladin comes up and rests a hand on Aechon's shoulder. Expecting the boy to jump he'd wait until he whirled then say with a laugh.
"It appears as though all we needed was the right bait Naenia."

That was exactly what Naenia had planned. What boy could resist the temptation of gummy sweets and fudge, after all? She turned her head and saw Aechon peering into the bag, and smiled, before she glanced at Jayce. She blinked when she realized he was looking at her. But it wasn't just.. looking. It was looking. She felt a flush fill her cheeks, and she turned away from him to instead look at Aechon once more, accompanying the paladin over to where the boy stood. She chuckled quietly and reached out to ruffle Aechon's hair.
"So it seems! I am going to guess that he did well on his lessons? Perhaps that warrants a bit of a reward?" She glanced questioningly at Jayce, arching a brow and smiling brightly.

Aechon, indeed, yelped and whipped about - falling on his behind on the bench as a result. Jayce sneaking up like that had startled him. But he relaxed quickly, more so when Naenia came up and pet his head. It made a small smile appear on his face, and his eyes lit up a bit in response to the mention of getting a treat. Needless to say, it had his attention.

Jayce see's Naenia flush and this provokes a flush of his own. He felt like a youth with his first crush.
"Quite well."
Jayce responds to Naenia. Reaching over he grabs the bag and exams the contents. Selecting a piece of taffy he draws it out and hands it to the lad.
"Indeed he does deserve a treat."

"Wonderful." Looking up at the angle of the sun - at anywhere other than Jayce, really - she then began walking away, moving toward the kitchen.
"I believe I will begin making dinner. There are some games in there, should the two of you feel like playing them." With that, she disappeared into the kitchen. Should either of the two investigate the bag's contents, they'd find several age-appropriate games within. Meanwhile, Naenia focused on crafting dinner. She began to gather the ingredients for a meat and vegetable pie, humming quietly as she worked.

Jayce grinned as Aechon took off. The boy was improving slowly, but surely. Days would pass with lessons and treats and play. Until one day when Naenia was training Aechon Jayce took of for a walk. When he returned with an unexpected guest. Jayce lead Arya Shieldheart into the temple. "Welcome Arya, to my home." |

Naenia was sitting in the library with Aechon, working on his numbers. Feeling the return of Jayce's familiar presence, a bright smile curved her lips, and she stood, absently smoothing the skirts of the blue dress she wore.
"Jayce has returned. Shall we go say hello?" Without waiting for the boy, she hurried to the courtyard where she could feel Jayce. But as she neared, she felt an unfamiliar presence alongside the paladin's, and her smile slowly faded to a look of confusion. Emerging from the library, she saw a female form beside him, and her heart stopped beating for a few moments as she froze. What..? It took her a moment to wrangle her emotions back under control, and then she was looking down at Aechon, assuming he had accompanied her.
"It appears we have a visitor, Aechon. We should go greet them." Hesitantly moving forward, she approached where Jayce stood with the unfamiliar woman. Eyeing her thoughtfully, she then glanced at the paladin.
"..Jayce? Who is your.. friend?"

Arya Shieldheart
Dedicated
Roleplay posts: 274
Age: 21
Physical Description: *Physical Description*
Arya stands at about 5'10, with an athletic build composed of lean yet strong muscle due to rigorous training in plate armor most of the time. Arya has pure white hair that tumbles down to just above the small of her back in flowing waves.
Her face holds soft features, which seem welcoming to any who look upon them. Her eyes, which are a ruby red color, always seem to hold a friendly, welcoming glint.
***
Clothes and Equipment: *Clothes and Equipment*
In combat, Arya will almost always be wearing a high quality plate armor made of white plate accented in black. The armor was made to fit the user and is more form fitting than plate armor of a lower quality, which makes it hug her features a bit, while also allowing a freer range of movement. On top of this, the armor is also enchanted, which lends it additional strength in the form of various wards placed upon it. With the armor, Arya also usually has a dark navy blue cape that is enchanted to protect her from the elements that may affect a user wearing full plate normally.
Arya's sword, which she carries at all times, appears to be made out of pure gold and is ornately crafted, though in truth it is only golden in color. The blade seems to always gleam with holy energy. The source of the blade's holy energy seems to flow directly from Arya's soul, the blade and its wielder's soul linked by a powerful bond. The golden metal sword is so much a part of Arya that she can easily cast holy magic or light magic through it as she fights with it, and if one were to hold the blade, it would surrender everything of Arya's being to that person, including every memory, thought, and emotion she had ever experienced and is experiencing at the time. If the sword, which is nigh indestructible, is destroyed, however, Arya would die.
At other times, she wears more mundane clothing, though it typically consists of a cloak that is a dark navy blue, similar to her cape while she is wearing her armor that is also enchanted to protect it's wearer a bit. For the most part, she summons most of her equipment through the use of light magic, except for her sword.

Arya would follow behind Jayce a few steps away, walking along carefully on the mountainous terrain in the low light of dusk. She would come up beside Jayce as they finally made it to the temple, and would watch as Naenia walked out of the temple.
Arya would offer a friendly wave to try and reassure Naenia that she was friendly, as her questioning made it seem to Arya that she was suspicious.
"Hello, I am Arya Shieldheart, a paladin."
Arya would offer a friendly smile as well.

Aechon accompanied Miss Naenia into the courtyard, a bit joyous to see Jayce again. He looked up to the man greatly - a warrior much like the ones from the stories his father had read to him. Upon seeing the stranger beside him, however, the boy retreated into a shell of uncertainty - his wings coming up over his shoulders just a bit as he stood just behind the angel - watching the female paladin with a curious but nervous stare as he clung to the skirts of Naenia's dress.

"I hiked to the summit of the mountain. On the way back down I encountered Arya in a sudden blizzard. I offered her shelter for the night."
Jayce offered this short summary of the events leading to his meeting the young paladin. He moves further into the hall brushing some last remaining snow flakes from his shoulders.
"We should retire to the sitting room. And put on a kettle. Some tea would be very nice right now. Armor gets very cold when it's left in the snow for too long."
