Jaster sighs and looks off.
"I can do just about any paperwork. If you need me to, I can do it." he said starting to fumble with his pocket watch
"I'll just have to change how I look....in case of....you know who shows up." he grinned.

Eric looked at Reiko
"you really do need to rest, my dearest Reiko."

"I'll be fine, Eric." Reiko said, leaning on him while smiling, though she seemed quite exhausted on closer inspection. "Thank you for the offer, Jaster, but I need to do this alone." She said, smiling weakly and motioning for Eric to follow.

Eric followed Reiko


Jaster sighed, he knew he shouldn't be here.
"alright, well..erm...i'll just be on my way."

Jaster fumbled with his pocketwatch deciding where and when he should go next.

Reiko followed her servants towards the library before walking to a table full of papers, many having a seal of royalty to show that only Reiko could pass action on these things.

An orb of light would sudden appear behind Jaster, taking a form similar to Reiko's save for white hair. She would take a few steps back before walking into Jaster, acting like she was a servant not knowing where she was going. "Oh! I'm sorry!" She said, looking at Jaster. "I have to get to the library for the Princess. I wish she would learn to take a step back sometimes. She'll kill herself with stress and exhaustion if she's not careful."

Eric saw the girl and nodded.
"I know. She needs rest, but all this endless paperwork will dive anyone to exhaustion." he sighed, not knowing how to help.

"At times like this, I feel powerless to help her." he mumbled.

He walked up to Reiko and rubbed her shoulders
"Reiko, you really need to rest. The paperwork will still be here when you wake up."

Reiko whimpered as Eric rubbed her shoulders, closing her eyes with how comfortable and soothing it felt. "L-Later..." She commented, looking ready to doze off. "I have to...rule...Taogonia..." She rested her head down on Eric's chest.

The white haired Reiko watched silently, looking over the paperwork.

Eric smiled and slowely lifted Reiko up into his arms.
He saw the girl and mouthed "thank you" to her,

He laid Reiko down in bed and kissed her before sitting down to guard her.

Reiko soon found herself asleep in her bedroom, already quite deep in slumber. In her arms rested a stuffed plushie looking similar to Eric that she slept with when only she would be dozing off in the bed. She would make some cute noises in her sleep, sometimes mumbling something.

The white haired Reiko watched Eric and Reiko depart before going to clean the desk and organize the paperwork. While doing so, she read over each paper and signed Reiko's signature at the bottom of each one that she knew about. "It's nice to see even my children are still looking after me after I was drowned in darkness." She told herself. "Hopefully they will treat their newfound home well."

Eric smiled and started to doze off, however he kept waking himself up with a small pinch.
He paid attention to what she mumbled.

((ok, unsure what to do now lol. may wanna wait for others?? gonk ))

(Several weeks passed)

Eric was once against looking at the monument. He had a strange feeling in the pit of his stomach that something had happened.

He looked at his watch which then projected a world map, he zoomed in on the academy.
"something happened at the academy. I can just know it." he said

He flinched.
"did something just....crash land here?"

Reiko looked at Eric, puzzled. "I think I felt something off..." She said, smiling and running to Eric. "Can we go investigate? It's been forever since I left the castle!"  

[kalenakeeper]

TheRealKiru

Eric nodded
"Yeah, me too" He said standing up

He smiled seeing her
"Yes, lets go. You could use the fresh air anyways. I think the disturbance came from the fields near to the heart of the world."

Reiko hugged Eric in an energetic manner, not really remembering to remove her royal dress, but hurrying outside.

Eric laughed and ran following Reiko, wearing street clothes....more what Tagonians would consider 'street clothes'.

"I wonder who it is. I can tell its not hostile."

"Then let's go see." Reiko said, passing by a few servants and out the door.
