Arlyth’Kaeion smiled slightly when he saw the guard bowing, somewhat amused. Then seeing his aunt approach, he swallowed. Having never seen his aunt before, there was no doubt to who she was; the resemblance to his mother was uncanny. As she walked closer, he dropped to one knee and bowed from the waist, his head going lower then his knee, almost touching the floor.

He felt a touch on his shoulder and he looked up; his eyes seeing midnight blue robes as they rose up. He stared into the face of his aunt; she was beautiful. "Welcome, child." came her soft voice. Her voice was mature; the tone of a woman in full blossom. Arlyth’Kaeion swallowed again, and whispered, "Greetings, Lady Sylquisitae... my father and mother send their wishes, and pray that you are well." Arlyth’Kaeion felt his aunt smile, "Rise, nephew. Please, there is not need for you to kneel on the ground, we are after all kin, and you may address me as such." Arlyth rose slowly, and was startled to find his aunt's arms around him, embracing him. The boy timidly embraced her back, unsure of how to treat his aunt. The cleric felt his confusion, and smiling suggested, "I expect you are tired, Arlyth, perhaps, some rest would be in order?" the boy nodded, and replied, "I accept, thank you." "Come, child. I suspect there is much to talk of. I should introduce you to your cousins, if you feel well enough?" Arlyth nodded and replied, "Yes, I am." he smiled and added, "Aunt Syqluis." The cleric smiled, put her arm around his shoulders, and lead him inside the castle, to the hall outside the throne room, letting the boy take in his new surroundings, and linked her arm through her own. "Now, dear nephew, you shall be anounced. Do not fear, you shall not be harmed, and indeed, you are an honoured guest. Be at ease." She nodded to the guards, who opened the door, and the herald
went in.

OCC, just for the record, since Sylquis was one of my old characters/NPCs, I'll RP her.
