The door very carefully opens, the door is gigantic. It's a rectangle that's made out of a polished marble with a gold trim. Henry just seems to appear in front of Queen Noel with a smirk across his face. To Noel he looks mysterious, charming, in a way. Henry takes one step at a time on the recently cleaned marble floor. He bows once he is front of Queen Noel. "My queen." He says with a tone of sarcasm, but obviously joking around. Noel's face lights up with joy as she jumps out of her gold and steel throne with a carpet and pillow to act as cushions and hugs him.
"Henry! It's been so long! It's great to see you again!" She says with excitement going all through her body. "Good to see you, too.." Henry looks uncomfortable, some would say he is flustered to be hugged by the queen, though Noel would disagree saying "He just isn't used to hugs.". Noel always defended Henry back during the war against Edward Florencian.
Henry is pretty much the only human within the kingdom, he had to find someway to make up for that, right? He is a brilliant mind that made almost all the weaponry used by the army that fought Edward.
Noel asked Henry to come back after the war to become one of the members of the council. Naturally, he accepts. "Henry, you have got to meet James!" "James..?" Henry mumbles, like he has heard that name from Noel before... Or more like he heard that name some other time. "Yeah~ He is by far the best fighter among us! He is actually the general I mentioned in my letter." She says while smiling. Henry pats her head and says, "Aww~ Someone has a crush~" "Hey!!" She pushes Henry playfully. "I do not!" She giggles. "yeah you do~" "Henry!! Stop teasing me!" "I can't help it, it's in my nature." They both start laughing.
Noel is an angel, a pretty unusual looking one. She has the gigantic white bird wings and golden halo, it's just the shape of her wings. She tends to fold her wings to keep others from noticing. When she is flying they go into a diamond shape. It's rather pretty.
Noel sits herself back on her throne happily. "Henry, why don't you bring the other council members here? It may help you become more friendly with some of the them. It's good to get along with fellow members." The queen suggested. Henry sighs and says, "Alright, may you give me a brief explanation of who they are?" "Of course. Mikey is the first one I want you to get. He is very sweet and gentle and wouldn't harm a fly!" She smiles. "He is also a very talented writer. Wrote almost all the letters that we had given out." Henry thinks, "Oh, him. I remember seeing him awhile back. He seemed quiet and didn't want to talk to anyone. Kind of had a resting bitch face on the entire time." "And then I would like you to go get James. He is obnoxious, but a strong fighter. He is very talented with a bow and arrow. You'll like him." She says with that doll-like smile of hers. It's sometimes a bit creepy, though everyone knows she means well.
"Then please do get Valery, too. She can be a bit head strong, but she means well. She might pretend she hates you for awhile, but on the inside she is just a big ole' softie!" She giggles, knowing that Valery would hate being called that.
Henry nods and smiles as he looks around. "Do you have any idea where they might be? This place is huge." He asks. "Oh, yeah! Mikey is probably in the library trying to finish his newest book that'll release in December! James might be in your laboratory that I had built for your arrival. Valery is most likely out in the battle training area training the newly entered guards. Got that?" "Yes, thank you my queen." He says with a smirk on his face. "You don't need to be so formal! We are friends after all!" "Alright, alright. Have a blessed day!" He says with a grin on his face as he bows and walks towards a grand hallway filled with paintings.
He walks down the hallway that looks like it can fit two elephants down it. He comes a dark brown wooden door. It reminds him of chocolate, Henry's favorite sweet. He chuckles and reads the sign next to the chocolate looking door. It reads, "LIBRARY OPEN" Henry then opens the door, it's surprisingly easy to open despite it's grand size. He walks in and the door slams behind him, it makes him jump with a tinge of fear, but quickly clams down. "Why do you have to be so damn jumpy, Henry" He thinks to himself. He looks around and sees thousands of books all lined up on gigantic wooden bookshelves. He stares at them all in awe. They are all sorted based on their category, the first one is "Spells and Sorcery", and it all goes from there. Henry looks around again and spots a guy with light brown hair wearing pink and yellow. He has a yellow scarf around his neck with a pink jacket that's over his white button-up shirt. His wings are smaller than all the other adult angels he has seen, he has only seen one angel with the same wings as him, and that was him. "Excuse me but, are you Mikey?" Henry asks. The pink and yellow male looks at him and rolls his eyes. "I would prefer if you call me Micheal. My actual name." He says with an annoyed tone. He then goes back to writer something, he dips his quill in a small glass ink cup, that looks like it could also be used as a shot glass. "Probably was a shot glass." Henry thinks to himself. "What do you want? Are you just going to stand there?" Micheal half asks like he wants Henry to just say what he needs to say and get out.
"Well, Queen Noel asked me to bring all the council members to her." "Who are you?" Micheal asks fast. Seeming to ignore what Henry had said. "I'm Henry, I am also one of the council members." "Oh, the inventor, correct?" He says it like he really doesn't care, but is trying to sound like he cares. "Correct! It's a pleasure to meet you." He bows. "Why does Noel want to see us?" He asks. "So he didn't ignore me." Henry thinks to himself. "I don't know, she didn't tell me." He answered.
