She gently lifted his body up in a bit of an ankle. "Now then, you are not allowed to leave the castle without my permission. You will stop short from any exit until you receive it. You will not be able to attack or use any moves on anyone except in true self-defense. When outside the castle, you will stay within ten feet from me unless outside circumstamces or, again, with permission. That's where trust pulls through, but failing to perform tasks or trying to escape upon seperation may end up giving a harsher sentence when found again. Is that understood?"

Levitas again slowly nodded his head. "Y-yeah, I..... I do," he breathed, a sigh lifting some burden off of his shoulders.
"You've sure got yourself a nice place. This rivals all the places I've been to. And you are quite the tour guide," Kitsune flirted, basically hugging his neck. "But even with all of this, there's still one grand jewel that still has my eye." She batted her lashes at him, blowing a thin cloud of icy smoke in his direction. "You mind if I study him a little further?" she teased with an alluring smile.

"Good...now go ahead and get some sleep..." she cooed, her eyes in close proximity. "You'll begin your duties in the morning..."
"Eheh...you've been quite a nice guest, Kitsune..." he said, blushing red the whole way as they went to the guest quarter's halls. "And I'll be glad to show you. First, I'm really curious. What's given you such a unique mix of your Eastern and Western forms? I've never seen it before..."

Levitas closed his eyes before she could finish speaking to him, his head cocking to the side into the coils as sleep snatched him away.
"Ooh, very perceptive. Seeing as I was born of the Eastern variation, I thought I'd expand my heritage in order to improve the elemental skills I was brought up with. A lovely tribe in the Alolan mountains performed a ritual with a sacred piece that I can't really say to the common ear. I thought it was going to be hard adjusting to the chill nature but it came very natural to me." She leaned in a little closer. "But I don't mind heating things up every now and then," she snickered, the tips of her hair catching flame, blue in some parts and orange in others. "It is nice to see someone who is just as interested in me, handsome."
"Well this hasn't happened in a while," Andy said to himself, circling in the throne room, with the Queen's guards about the only company. "Alone. That sure is something I'm not used to," he muttered to himself before floating to the nearest corridor as if he were lost in a market. "Now what to do while I wait......" He peered out the window to a small sparring quarters, spying quite a few smaller matches going on. Soon a horde of voices filled his head, and he winced, looking away and holding his head. "These spikes are becoming more frequent," he told himself, looking out at the warriors again, but this time with a studious look rather than a curious one.

Serena couldn't help but blush at the Noivern falling asleep in her grasp, finding his peaceful state oddly cute. Still, she sighed, taking it upon herself to place the thief where he needed to be.
"Well, I've never seen such a fusion before..." he replied, gazing at her for a moment when they reached a door at the hall. "I think you're quite gorgeous and radiant...I never thought I'd be your type, really..."
After a moment of silence, he'd hear a plucky female voice speak from behind him. "Whatcha watchin'?" If he were to turn around, the Azelf would find a Dratini, a rare pink variation, dress in some minimal chest and back armor and some blue light armor around much of her upper body. Her weapon, a spear with a blue ribbon tied to it, was hoisted on her back. Her garb seemed equipped for speed...

"And who are you to judge what my type is?" she teased, nudging him playfully. "We are going to have to do a lot of getting to know one another, now won't we? I think we have all the time in the world to do so." Glancing at the door and back to him, she cocked an eyebrow. "I take it this is where I'll be staying? It looks rather cozy."
"Oh, I was just watching the sparring down there." He rubbed the back of his head in turning around. "You must be one of the famous guards of the Queen, right? They didn't tell me you were so.... pretty," he found himself saying before he grew abruptly silent, his face beet red. "I'm Andy!" he quickly smiled sheepishly, tugging on his collar before reaching a hand out to shake. "Ooh, what a pristine spear." He circled her swiftly, reaching a hand towards the spear. He traced it without touching it before her eyes met with his again. "Uh, sorry, I do fancy craftsmanship and styles of fighting, even though I myself haven't really done much..."

"Yeah, we do have plenty of time...I'm already looking forward to it..." he replied, looking to the door with her and nodding. "It's a little compact, but you should have all the essentials..." He opened the door to show the room, being a bit bigger than her apprentice's but mostly with everything in the same place. It had a nice, peaceful atmosphere to it.
The Dratini giggled and blushed slightly at the compliment. "Aw, thanks! You're pretty cute yourself!" she said, grabbing his hand and shaking it with her tail. "Name's Drina! Welcome to Dial, Andy!" She kept smiling as the legendary inspected her spear. "Oh, glad you're interested!" she said, pulling it out and holding it sideways for him to touch. "Yeah, good ol' Gung-Ho's has won me a couple juniors tournaments, actually."

"Well, compact space makes it more romantic if you ask me. Plus I usually travel small and live small, so this is more than enough. So.... before I dive into these lovely colors I've heard so much about, how did you get on the strongest force I know of. It had to be something other than a dazzling display. I'm sure the others would love to spar with some of the best, myself included."
Andy's eyes lit up as he gently took a hold of the spear. "Perfect balance, durable material, and not too heavy. You had a great crafter. Felicia asks me what kind of a weapon I should use, but I always have a hard time choosing. That and I haven't exactly sparred all that much to find out either. Mostly because I'm afraid to...." He waved his hands in the air suddenly. "Oh I'm not afraid of fighting, it's that something happens every time I do..."

"Well, the thing is, I've actually spent most of my young life as a warrior in a nomadic tribe, the Gilgorn tribe. Some would call them barbarians, with a bit of good reason, honestly. The tribe was pretty heavy on a violent lifestyle...one that, while I disliked, was neither the best nor the worst, but didn't exactly like. My mom was one of the wives of the tribe leader and, long story short, decided to leave with both me and my brother soon after he was laid and seek refuge here in Dial."
"Heh! Thanks! We do have a heck of a blacksmith..." she said, sheathing the spear back. "But...what happens when you fight?" she asked, tilting her head curiously.

"Well, I know a certain Mightyena back home that you'll bond with, if he ever takes more time off after his forced vacation. Not that his tribe was overly violent, but you both come from a tribe background. You certainly have the girth to be a 'barbarian' of sorts. So big and strong." She ran a paw along a section of his tail. "I perhaps have been raised in glory compared to you, then. Certainly not royalty.... well not until Fel brought me in. I was raised in an elite family of warlocks. Though I was the first to integrate my western abilities, though it took a while to convince them that I would use them for good. It does look like the two of you have accustomed to life here beautifully, and I think little Eden is smitten with your younger brother. And believe me it takes a lot to break that little ball of fur out of her shell."
"Uh... it's not just in battle, but it happens more frequently when I do." He twiddled his thumbs for a while. "It might be better if I show you. Would you like to go to the sparring rings, or somewhere else?"

The Arbok blushed a bit more as he gently wrapped part of his tail around one of her forearms. "Well, I guess it kinda depends. I'm not exactly fond of most of my tribal days, really..." he said with a sigh. "Maybe that's the reason I've adapted so well here. I've never been much for my old life. And yeah, Samuel's pretty open and academic. If she's into any books, they'd probably bond for sure!"
"Ooh! Alrighty! Let's head to the ring!" she said, taking his hand with her tail and pulling him along as she quickly slithered. "Shouldn't be too far!"

"Oh. I didn't realize it was such an experience you wanted to put it all away. I'm sorry, and she's been pouring over books even before I took her in. She's got some skills that could rival my own if I could just get her confidence boosted. Perhaps she might have an easier time with a different 'tutor'." She lifted her arm as he wrapped around it, a hint of pink mixing with her blue and orange cheeks. "Looks like we're getting along just fine," she flirted, one of her tails brushing against his own, the others tangling behind her.
Andy couldn't respond as he was frisked away, the throne passing by him in a blur. Before long the two made it to a ring, and almost immediately a crowd gathered for the young Dial guard and the legendary. "Hoooh, you're a popular one," he said anxiously. "Well, now let's see...." he then said to himself as he looked over the weapons rack. Swords, staves, maces.... he stroked his chin, shaking his head at each until a glint of sunlight caught his eye. A long chain lay in a pile next to the rack, with smooth, wooden handholds at different intervals. On each end was a curved blade much like butcher's knives. A majority of the crowd gave interesting glances as he picked up the chain in his hands, and he heard "'...that's one of the hardest weapons to master...'", "'that's another royalty...'" "'how is he gonna stand up to Dial's best?....'" among the murmurs in the crowd. He swallowed, exhaling deeply before turning to Drina. "Ready when you are..."

"Hey, it's not a problem. I feel like I can talk to you more about it if I need to..." he replied. "Yeah, Sam'll help her a lot with her shyness, I'll bet." Cassidy softly stroked the tail back. "Heh...yeah. Pretty well, I gotta say..."
"Eheh...take it easy everybody..." she said, waving her tail down to try and calm the crowd. As the Azelf picked his weapon, Drina went to one side of the ring and pulled out her weapon. When he picked it, she looked at it intrigued. "Ooh! That's a cool one!" she said, pointing her weapon towards him. "Alrighty! If you're ready, let's go!" With that, she dashed forward to strike with the front of her spear.

"You know, I think someone might be able to help me out," Kitsune said. "I've seen quite a lot of the world, but to miss that talent with your eyes would make me feel very disappointed. Though I must say your eyes are alluring enough if you ask me." Her flirtatious grin returned, and Cassidy found her head under his neck, nuzzling softly.
As she dashed forward, Andy seemed to freeze, and she felt a presence enter her mind. As she thrust forward, the Azelf juked to the left, preparing to counterattack. Use the weight of the chain to guide the blade. Keep it fluid, don't force it, come on. He heard the voice within his head. Someone from the crowd had used this type of weapon before, and his mind had entered theirs, too. He twirled, launching one blade to knock the spear to the side. Not out of her hands as he swung the other blade towards her armor, guiding it to where she was dodging. "I... uh... take it you know I'm in here by now," he said in the confines of her mind. "I don't mean to probe intentionally, but I do every time I fight." Every time she came at him, he had an answer waiting. "Ok, you've got some skills though. I wouldn't last very long, but in the spirit of things I think it would be best for you to win the match, but let's make it interesting, eh? I always feel I cheat my opponents when this happens...."

"Then I won't let you miss an experience like this..." he cooed, stroking her hair as she nuzzled lightly. He'd gently move his tail to her chin and guide them to his eyes. "Now just look and relax..." he cooed, transforming his eyes into a spectacle of colorful spirals.
"Mindreading right off the bat, huh? Usually, other Psychic types need some time to focus, but you can just do it without even wanting to..." she said after moving back after the spear was parried and countered by the chain blade. "You really are a legendary Pokemon. Not sure how I'd get around this, yet... Still, yeah, we can give a bit of a show." She shot underneath the Azelf to get behind him and spear him from the back to start her next move.
