Decent Essays

t’s been a long time brother! What brings you to Aeolus?” “Yes, it has been a while, Deacon,” Troy turned around. Deacon lowered his hood, “How are you brother?” he pulled Troy into a hug. “Pretty good,” Troy said. “How’s the Duke of Aeolus?” “I’ll tell you all about it. But first, I need to finish my rounds. Giaos! Take Troy to the council room.” He looked at Troy, “We need to talk…” he said before leaping into the trees. Ellie flew over Giaos and landed on Troy’s shoulder. “There you are! Any sign of her?” he asked, caressing her head with his fingers and Ellie cooed, sadly fluttering her wings. He turned to Giaos, “How has he been doing?” “I’m sorry, my lord, whom are you talking about?” Giaos asked as they walked the path into Aeolus. “Deacon of course,” Troy said. “He is well, my lord, but if it’s not in my place…” he waited for Troy’s approval. Troy nodded. “I believe he needs a woman in his life -- Lady Aria, more specifically. She enthrals him.” “He didn’t tell her?” “No. He believes love would interfere with his rule, that it’ll cloud his judgment.” “What nonsense are you spewing, Giaos?” Deacon caught up to them. “I was just explaining to Lord Troy-” Deacon furrowed his brows. “I was out of line, my lord,” he said, backing away. Deacon sighed, “The damage has been done. My big brother is here, and I’m sure he’ll be more than happy to aid me there.” “It seems my little brother, Duke of Aeolus, still needs to be babysat,” Troy nudged his side. Giaos chuckled.
