It was night, and a faint fog covered the Graveyard. It wasn't too late, so a person there could hardly be questioned. Illyra -or Lyra, as she was called now- was walking amongst the gravestones, pausing every now and then to read one and lower her head respectfully. Finally she reached the outskirts, furthest away from people, and sat. Nothing appeared to happen. But anyone who had touched her would have found her as cold as ice, although her heart beat and she breathed lightly, and completely unresponsive to anything they did. But, in truth, her mind and soul had left to the Realms, leaving her body compeltely behind. Illyra was like this for the longest time, completely motionless, as she visited her 'lovely' siblings...

Gilgamesh was very lost. He was stumbling through the graveyard, how he got there he couldn't begin to imagine, and really wanted to get back to the guild, this place was creepy. What he really needed was directions, and luckily, up ahead was a figure sitting down. Hopefully they could help, whoever they were.

Still she remained as still and cold as a statue, close to lifeless. But suddenly she shuddered as her brief conversation with her siblings ended, and she was catpulted back to earth, wingless and quite ordinary. Lyra kept her same position for awhile as the blood began to flow faster, biting her lip slightly at the prickly pain it caused. It was not one of her better nights.

"Um...hello?" Gilgamesh called out as he got closer, he still couldn't tell who was sitting up ahead.

"Hi," she answered dully, finally taking the opportunity to stand, turning to face him. Recognizing him, she stretched slightly, moving towards him a bit. "You're Gilgamesh, right?" Lyra wondered what he was doing way out here at this time.

"Oh hey, yea we met earlier, you're Lyra I think." He said, moving closer. "Whats wrong? You look a little bummed?"

"Yes, about a week ago." Had it been that long? It seemed so much longer.... She dismissed his question with a wave of her hand, a sarcastic tone, and a semi-forced smile. "Just family being....well, family."

"Oh I see, anything I can do to help?" He didn't think there was anything but he had to offer.

"Unless you have a surefire way of making older siblings who live very far away disappear completely, although they could entirely ruin your life, no," she answered politely. "What are you doing here?"

Gilgamesh nodded regretfully. "Sorry, don't have that power. Um...I got lost..." he explained, embarassed.

"I thought so." Illyra sighed at his next words. "You realize that is highly stupid, idiotic, and typical of you to do so?"

"Ummm...well yeah, but i don't see how its typical." he chuckled, figuring she was joking.

"Typical, as in to be expected. Seeing as all guys seem completely moronic to begin with. For heaven's sake, the paths are LABELLED!" With that she pointed to a sigh, where and arrow clearly pointed and stated the way out of the cmetary and to the Temple, with further instructions on how to get to the Guild.

"Oh...right, didn't see those." he said, sounding even more embarassed.

"And I suppose you didn't see the map right behind you either." Really, she could find humans so tiring. And stupid
