"Hhmm, I hadn't really thought about that myself, Mr. Wein. I've never been in a castle before either. Heh, guess this might be a real treat for me then," Selk stated as he smiled widely and scratched the back of his head.
"I don't know a lot about nobles and all of that. I lived on a farm up until a little under a year ago," Selk explained, not really speaking to anyone in particular. It was more along the lines of thinking out loud, really.

"I'm right there with you." Wyatt said with a smirk. "I'm from a little 'middle o' nowhere' town too, but I'll see if I can't make somethin o' myself here." He looked about the group. "I dunno how far in we will get, but it's nice to see a real castle. I was so nervous last time I was there I don't remember much of it." He admitted sheepishly.
"Yeah so, where are you all from? I'm from a bit south west o here, but a weeks travel or so."

'It really isn't that special, you won't see much marble at least.' Denzel said, he thought back to the first he had come to the castle. Admittedly, he had gawked his eyes out as well. Hopefully their reactions would be a little less troublesome.

"I'm from Etruria, from the Kalahros providence. But I've spent the last few years in Delfia, training under a druid in the arts of magic, of course," Lilith said casually. I wonder how far we'll get into the castle before guards arrive? I remember getting in trouble and causing mischief with the other apprentices back in the palaces... Such wonderful times!" she giggled. She really liked these people. They all seemed to be of the same mindset; looking for others to share their experience with. Sure, the little horseboy seemed shy, but who wouldn't be. He seemed young, younger than she. How was he already a caviler?!

"Yeah uhh, I'm gonna have to ask you to not get yourself in trouble here." Denzel said actually looking at a fixed point over Lilith's shoulder. He started to understand that pretty though she maybe she could really get him in trouble. Resigning himself to it he turned around and started to walk out of the Inn (who knows maybe people would appreciate them not blocking the entrance any more). 'Well shall we?"

Wein got out of the doorway. "After you, kid," he said to Denzel. "You can show the way."

"Yeah, let's head out. Not doing much else for the rest of this day anyway, might be nice to have a little tour with some nice company." He remarked, heading down the road with Denzel.
"At any rate, the sun will be setting soon enough, might want to get some thing done before it's dark." A true country boy, everything in this city was new and exciting.
"Jeez, this place is huge, I just can't believe it."

Selk had zoned out a bit since the last time he spoke. He heard everyone and even saw them all begin their trek towards the castle, but it didn't register until just now. He jerked his head down from his blank stare at the ceiling and began following them. "Guess I zoned out for a minute there, heh," he says as he follows behind them.
"The farm I lived on was on the outer edge of Caelin. I've lived in a militia barracks not far from here for almost a year now, though...."

Lilith promised to be a good girl before they set off. She oohed and ahhed at the sights Denzel showed them. The layout of this city was more centered on trade than the cities in Etruria, which were leaning more towards praying and knowledge. "Oh, Denzel, this place is wonderful! Are all Lycian cities this beautiful?!" Lilith asked enthusiastically.

(OOC: 0_o I didn't know Laus was so ****ing fabulous, how utterly awesome am I suppose to envision this dump anyway?)
"Well, I haven't stepped foot in another village in quite a while now but yeah, I suppose most of them would look like this too." Denzel said looking ahead. The party came in view of the gate to the courtyard. It was open but flanked by two sentries. Here goes nothing...

Wein looked up at the gate. It was like every other castle he'd been to. At least from the outside. "Same old, same old," he said out loud. He'd seen a lot of castles. Castle Ostia was actually visible from his house. Wein turned to Denzel. "Do we get to go in?"

OOC: Castle Laus IS nothing compared to Castle Ostia and Phaere (sp?), but it is still a castle, and most characters haven't seen one.
Wyatt looked up at the majestic castle for the second time that day, it hadn't failed to impress him this time either.
"Jeez, they are so much bigger then in the stories. They really can't capture the size of these things." Wyatt said, looking at the tall parapets. "This is wear I could be working...wow. It really is an eye opener. Do you remember the first time you came here Denzel?"

Lilith smiled and looked up at the walls and turrets of the castle. The palaces in Etruria were nothing like this. They were much more streamlines, and some were even held up into amazing shapes by magic. But this was certainly a nice place. She decided to stay quiet and just take in the sights.

"Yeah, I was dragged here after getting caught stealing around town. The Marquess decided to take pity on me." Denzel said over his shoulder. He then explained his intents to the guards. They were permitted to enter the non-restricted area's under Denzel's supervision. Entering the courtyard Denzel started talking again. "We can tour for about an hour or so before we need t leave again, dusk isn't that far away now..."

Selk's eyes were open a bit wider than normal and his mouth partially agape. He looked rather idiotic in all truth, but he was too amazed by the sight of the inside of the castle walls. When they entered the courtyard, he spotted one of the large stained glass windows of the castle and the large banners that hung from the castle walls. It was truly an amazing thing to behold. He couldn't summon the proper words to convey any form of intelligible speech at the moment, so he kept quiet.
