[Dymunds]

The air in the castle was light. Light as a feather and as bright as a diamond. One would say too polished, but others would say just enough. None the less, the queen of the Diamond Kingdom sat on her throne with a tired look open her brow.

"Your Highness, wouldn't you agree that we should take a gander at the gardens today. I hear rumors of withering in the wind....", a woman of tied back hair said softly to the queen.

Her garments were revealing all together, but selected out piece by piece they were alluring. Very intricate detailing along the hems and what not. A work of art walking.

"Not now Cameo. I still have not had my tea...", the queen stated weakly.

"I understand. I wonder whats taking them so long to retrieve it today? Would you like me to go fetch it myself your highness?"

"My name is Pearl Aunt Cameo. Call me Pearl. How many times must I remind you. We are family. WE do not have barriers. Understood?"

The woman of pulled back hair sighed and nodded, "Agreed."

Just as her aunt replied the sound of china clinking could be heard in the distance.

"Finally....", the queen uttered with a sigh as well.

"I would hate to ask what took you so long but that would only take you longer to serve the tea. See to it that we meet later maid", Cameo demanded as the tea maid began to pour a cup of dark tea into a tea cup.

It was fashioned very old, it's paint still in mend condition. Silver rim and handle. White color. Black tea.

"Thank you for serving me. You are dismissed."

The maid nodded and turned around with the left over tea and tray and exited the room.

"Now back to the garden and the wither rumor. When was it that the wind told you this love?", the queen asked as she took a whiff of her tea's brew.

[The Dutchess]

The smell of pepper was in the air once more and sadly she was happy to have it back in her life. It had felt like months since she had been back home in here lovely estate in Wonderland and now that she had returned she was getting used to the oddities her world held yet again. Her body was still youthful surprisingly and her eyes held age, but altogether she was happy over the fact that she manage to gain one thing out of being transferred to a new world and back. Except for the fact that she still had a missing son....

"COOK!!! BRING ME A GLASS OF WATER DARLING WILL YOU!?", she shouted from the dinner table as she ate a salad with oil dressing.

Blonde locks mixed with brunette hues framed her young face as she shoved a fork full of greens between her plump pink lips. Feet could be heard shuffling across the dirty floor of the kitchen as the request was being acted upon. A water faucet sounded and then ceased. A few more shuffling noises and a cook of salt and pepper hair exited the doorway and walked awkwardly towards her. Setting the glass of water down before the Duchess, the cook bowed and quickly padded back towards the kitchen in hopes of making more special pies.

"DO YOU EVER STOP COOKING??!", the Duchess asked in a loud voice, it being raspy and old sounding.

"NEVER! MORE PEPPA!!!! BAHAHAHAHHA!"

The reply was even more dreadful than the Duchess's voice. Sighing to herself, the Duchess shoved another fork full of greens into her mouth and chewed for a few minutes. She really wished to hear the way her son cried over the pepper smell again odd enough to say, but oh how she missed her cute little piglet. Her grey-green eyes glistened with sadness as she gulped down the bite she was chewing on.

Acid had been lost before, many times before. Somehow during his stay in this strange place the winds had changed. He could of sworn that there was something connecting him to the other world if just for an instant. He shrugged his shoulders though and continued to walk all through a land of wonder.

The talking flowers made him giggle, he touched one and it withered. Making the rest scream in such a voice that made his ears literary bleed. He had gotten lost but if he didn't have a place to go then he really must of just been taking a stroll. Acid was not the kind of guy to be feared, at least not at first sight. Many would of thought him mad back home, but here he felt such joy.

Perhaps it would be best to not go back, to stay and make this place his new house. He nodded finally decisive, it seem like the place welcomed him even more so then he expected. His Ph level was a bit higher he was sure then what the place liked but that's what it made it like him like such? He shook his head, he knew he was forgetting something perhaps someone.

Bright red eyes looked through near glowing green hair.

"HELLO!!!"

a rather strangely youngish voice escaped his throat making his expression changed (O_o)

Enthayne

     Enthayne was his name, and yet it was not. Thayne was simple, pure, unsoiled by the sins of the world yet tainted beyond mending. He donned a white jumper and shorts, plain, like him, yet somewhat smeared with material filth. With skin of ivory, silken to touch and yet firm and unyielding, he was a wallflower—pretty, but unnoticed. His only alluring feature were his cobalt blue eyes of remarkable, piercing intelligence. They were rather dull at first glance, but every now and then one would be drawn in by them, into a world of mystery, and chaos. It was night, and Thayne found himself in the land of Nod, at the margin of reality where time and space bear no sovereignty, where the mind defies logic and reason. It was here, that Enthayne found himself falling, falling through a blackness that would never end. A blackness that would, for the very first time, befoul his spirit. As he fell, the tick, tick, tick, of a pocket watch resounded within his very being, and he found that he could see, though his eyes were shut. His lips parted, and he spoke with almost a whisper, “I’m late.” The tick only grew louder, till it synchronized with his heartbeat, engulfed him, became him, corrupted him. He was unaware, however, of the darkness that began to consume him, and when he felt his feet reach the dense support of ground, the windows to his soul opened, and he found himself in front of a hollow tree within a forest of riddles and secrets. “Ah, how wonderful.”
