The city of Kiranta

Kiranto walked slowly, walking around the small city so Trae could get a good look around for his mother

Trae frowned seeing no sight of his mother and looked up at the gate keeper with a grave look.

"She must be in the richer parts of town, i apologize, there I am not allowed to go"Kiranto said guiltily "I am truly sorry"

Trae shook his head. "She's a rabbit demon, she wouldn't..."

"All the more reason she would be noble" Kiranto stated as they neared the gate

"I see..." he looked down.

Even Nobles come here, she may show after all, you must be patient" Kiranto said as he sat on a strangely sculpted stone, pulling Trae onto his lap

Trae nodded "Alright."

Kiranto waited patiently unlocking and locking the gate as explorers and charters came and went

Sometime during the process Trae fell back asleep.

The hours passed by, melting back into the fabric of time, soon night had fallen and the Gate Keeper shook Trae gently to wake him "Wake up little one" Kiranto said in a soft voice

Trae blinked and looked up at the gate keeper in wonder. "mm?"

"It is time to head home" Kiranto smiled at Trae. Trae also noticed a small blue figure behind Kiranto

Trae grumbled and sat up looking at the figure. "who's that?" he asked rubbing his eye.

Kiranto was about to answer before the mystery person stopped him, "My name is Seegeist" He spoke in a soft...watery voice

"Oh, Hi." Trae smiled and waved at him.

Seegeist nodded at Trae in acknowledgment as Kiranto spoke, " Come little one " Kiranto held out a hand

Trae looked up and took Kiranto's hand. "Okay."

Kiranto guided Trae home, Seegeist seemed to be following them

Trae kept looking behind them at Seegist smiling and waving at him.

Eventually Seegeist smiled, he could no longer hold in the fact that Trae was adorable

Trae smiled seeing Seegist smile. He giggled and looked up at Kiranto. "Demon's are so much nicer than humans."

Kiranto smiled at Trae, "You think so?" Seegeist scoffed slightly and in his wattery voice spoke again, "Of course, we do not forsake our kind no matter what, the humans-no offense- would get rid of anybody who were to be different in the slightest" He finished showing a deep hatred for most humans

Trae smiled. "That's me! I'm different." he cheered.

Seegeist smiled at Trae with an almost drowning effect, "That I like to hear." As the trio made it to their street, the dirt underneath their feet was mushy making it muddy
