Lady Elexa B'Shera swept down the staircase, her long, black dress accented with lace at the collar and long, flowing sleeves gracefully trailing behind her. She assumed her position on her throne, looking over her throne room. At her hand, like some kind of sick scepter, was Umbrae, the heirloom scythe of the royal family of Nerezza.
Her captains... they were late.

"Get the hell outta my way!!!" the sound of Lana's authoritative voice rang throughout the hall just outside of the throne room door.
There was a crack, a snap, a thud, and a crash before the great doors to the throne room burst open and Lana marched in...just a little quicker in pace than usual because she was more than well aware that she should have been there quite a few minutes earlier. She stood tall before the queen, her hands sharply at her side.
"Your Majesty," she announced with a smile, "the hallway is clear of traffic, now!"
And with that she gave a great, respectful bow.

Ludro had his nose covered with with hands when he enter about 5 seconds later.
"Lana, I was behind you, there was no need to hit me!" He said, but it a little hard to hear it his hand covering his nose.
"My Queen, how are you on this day?" He said

Lana shook, trying to keep her laughter in as Ludro walked into the room. She kept her head real, real low to the ground - the queen would not be any more happier with them goofing around than she already was with them being late for their meeting. Ahh, the wonderful feeling of beating things up, even if it was her most trusted coworker/friend/drinking buddy.
...wait a minute, that meant he was going to get her back for it. And he knew where she was at almost all hours of the day!
Whatev. She'd worry about that later.

She raised her eyebrows at them and gracefully repressed a laugh. It would not do to have them think she was softening.
"You may rise, Lana... I am upset with your lateness, both of you, but this time, I shall excuse you. I am in a generous mood." She tapped the pole of her scythe with one elegant, flawlessly pale hand. "What news do you have to report of your recent activites? I have intelligence that you have een encountering several of these 'heroes from another world' that have been appearing of late."

"Well, My liege..." He said "Those Heroes, are not to be taken lightly. It seems that they are somewhat, good. But the 'heroes' seem to be made up with some people from here. But not all of the earth beings, seem to side with Yeligar, One has even befriended, Lord Trucido. That is about all we have been able to collected, My lady." He tilted his head back so that the blood would not drip on the floor.

She nodded. "Thank you, Ludro." She turned to Lana. "Lana, what have you collected?"

Lana rose promptly after being first addressed, and waited silently while Ludro gave his piece. She had to fight to hold in a snicker while Ludro moved to avoid spilling his nosebleed on the floor, but other than that she remained entirely composed as she began to speak.
"Your Highness, I've had the 'privilege' of meeting and battling two of the heroes. As Captain Gamblington has said, one of them has been befriended by Lord Damnedblood and that was the very one that I had only recently tried to fight off of our castle.
The other I had ambushed in Ignis--orange-headed kid. Loud-mouthed, too. Named Andy from what I picked up from the two girls tagging along with him; one's a sage, and the other's the Giacchio princess that Zel--err, the king of Guasto and the king of Ketulunanox had mentioned us needing, yet they refuse to inform me why."
Lana paused a moment to hold out her arm that was no longer bandaged, but scarred rather badly. She did look rather unimpressed as she continued.
"He doesn't seem like much in an average fight, but he's got some kind of incredible power. The only way I could possibly describe it is bright, and incredibly painful for the whole body. I regrettably cannot inform you of much else because after falling victim to this power he has, I'd lost consciousness and later awoke in the medical quarters of the castle."
She was surprised with herself, she had had a lot to say.

The young queen nodded sagely. "Thank you Lana... you have been loyal to me for a long time and I appreciate your honesty and lack of excuses." She surveyed both of them. "Both of you keep up the good work... I want as much information on these heroes as you can give me, and I find the tales of this young orange-haired man rather intriguing. I myself may test his strength... but I shall save that for another time."
She nodded once more. "You are both dismissed... continue your work for the glory of Nerezza and the Sumata 13."

"It's all I can do for the only place that accepted me, your Highness," Lana responded, "and I will continue to provide only the very best of service. Good day to you." She dipped into another bow before turning to leave, smirking a little at Ludro as she did so.
And the moment she got out the door and around the first corner in the hallway...she ran.

As Ludro left and walked around the corner, he said "LaNa, PaSsInG oUt!" He said as he fell down to the floor "Why is there so much blood coming from my nose!?" he asked her.

Lana skidded to a stop when she heard Ludro. Her first thought was that he was faking just to trap her, but at the same time, the guy WAS bleeding all over the floor, and had been for awhile.
She sighed, turned, and walked back to him, kneeling down right in front of him. "Hey, I didn't think I hit ya that hard. Come on, I'll take you to get it looked at..."

"Ok.." he said as he moved his hands. His Mustache was covered in blood and there was some still coming out. "Is it still bleeding?" he asked

Lana got up close and looked it over, sighing again. "Yeah, it is. Pinch the bridge of your nose, hasn't anyone taught you that?" She reached over and did it for him as an example.
"Like that. Come on, let's go." She then grabbed him by the arm and helped him up, letting him lean on her as they walked down the hall.

"Hey, that worked!" Ludro said in amazement " I always got nosebleeds and pass out from them. Now I am unstoppable!" He stood up and looked around "Wanna Race?"
