The mutant's footsteps could be heard from the other side of the room. They were soft, but still able to be heard. It wasn't until he reached the door that they could tell why. The hunter probably didn't weight much, and he had to look up at Loki just to see his face.
"Hello," Albus greeted the wooly, before noticing the outsiders that waited not too far behind him. His large eyes grew wide, but he pretended he hadn't quite noticed yet. "...Whatchya here for?"

"Well," Albus said with a smile, leaning over to see the outsiders and show that he noticed them, revealing his true size- A small, probably defected hunter who was just above half Loki's size. His four arms were thick and short, with the same rule applying to his legs. His eyes were large, being the most noticeable facial feature he had.
"I'd love to," He then told Loki, "I'm the best escort they could get, after all," He looked up pridefully.

"I suppose I'll be escorting you three," The little mutant spoke. He shuffled his feet a bit before walking over to the trio and standing in front of them. "Come with me," He told the trio as he looked far up at Blitz, who towered over him. She was probably the tallest in the bunch, and that gave him plenty to think about. He was sure he'd make good fun of it later, but for now, he had a task to complete.
The little Charter walked along the corridor, leaving the Charters' area and going towards the Main Chamber.

The little mutant took just seconds to start walking in another direction. He walked quite quickly with his little legs, which pittered and pattered on the smooth cave floor towards the next tunnel. He quickly went in without even looking back to see if his group was following. Up ahead, he would be giving the Queen's Guards the news of what was coming in before they would get there.

Albus was already at the end of the tunnel by the time they could pass the guards, who did not strike a single look at them as they allowed their passing. The dim light showed the little mutant's shadow at the end, and what looked to be a huge pit right in front of him.

When she could properly hear those above her, the Queen called up quietly. At least, quietly to her. Her voice could be heard echoing throughout the room, almost as loud as deep yell. She asked, "Who's up there?"
Albus almost flinched when she called up, but he kept his nervousness inside. "I-I have brought... Three outsiders." The little Charter's legs almost wobbled when he tried to step forward to look down into the hole. He could hear the pleased rumble that came from the very bottom of it.
"What are they here for?" She asked him from the bottom of the gaping pit, to which he replied, "They want to ask a few questions..."

Outside, many different people from differing districts of White Crystal gathered outside of the palace's walls, where stones were lined out, all in different sizes. Each had the full name of a fallen friend and loved one. Beside those stones, there were candles lied along the line to keep them lit. People came and left, either setting down a stone or picking it up to place it in its next resting place.
Among these civilians was Aryx himself. He held a small stone in his hands, which had a familiar name carved into it. He wasn't there alone- Terroka was right behind him, and he still kept Crew around him. Though, he gave little attention to them. He was too fixated on the stone they had carved, almost having a hard time believing it.

Deep down in the hole, two huge eyes became faintly visible as they slowly approached the surface, and stopped before the whole face of the Queen could be seen. From the size of her large eyes, it could be assumed her whole face could be the size of Luke alone. She was hesitant, but the Queen eventually decided to show her whole face to the outsiders. She rose from the pit, and soon, she could be seen as she really was. A long face with two large eyes, with two smaller eyes above them. Her face was so thin and long, it almost looked as though it was a skull- The nasal cavity was even open. She was truly a Queen of mutants.
"Luke and Blitz... Those are irregular names," She remarked, "So I guess names are not similar to ours in your world."

"Slow down," The Queen demanded in a deep voice. "I didn't let you come here so I could have a multitude of questions thrown at me." She crossed all of the arms on her upper body, and looked down at Blitz with her four eyes.
"They're just don't know anything about us," Albus defended Blitz.

Queen: "Talk to me like I'm your Queen. >:U"

((I gotta reply more.))

Aryx soon blew out the candles of the spot he'd been at, and had began to lead off his little group. He carried the stone in his hand as he began to walk down the street, walking alongside the line of stones and candles which dimly lit the street.

"Perhaps..." The Queen began, "You could begin a conversation. Ask questions along the way. Whatever keeps you from asking so many so quickly."

Neither Aryx nor Terroka were aware that Kono and Rebel were following them. Aryx kept walking on through the streets with slow steps. He headed towards the Middle District, where the City Gardens had several stones from Mournings long before. It was only respectful to put this stone in a place where it could rest with others.
The gardevoir walked on for a good amount of time, already passing the end of the stone line, and entering the Middle District. The gardens were just up ahead, branching off of the left side of the street. His pace quickened just slightly, with Terroka doing the same, and he headed towards the Gardens with heavy steps.

"My name is Ophiuchus II," She answered politely, pleased to hear that Blitz had finally slowed down a little. "I was named after the first Queen who started this colony."

"...Yes?" The little mutant looked over to her to figure out what she wanted.

The trio continued to walk towards the gardens, soon entering the short, barred gate. Terroka quietly shut the door as she entered behind Aryx, only just noticing familiar figures in the distance. She payed no mind to them, and simply continued on behind the gardevoir. They walked slowly through the garden trail, looking for the right spot to place the stone.

"About two centuries. The colony itself is.. Very young," The Queen informed Blitz, putting all of her hands together, twiddling the thumbs of her first pair of hands.

"We've found some lying around, usually in the trees," Albus told Kono, raising his eyebrows at this question. "We're not exactly sure what they are and what they're for."

That would be so scary.

By the time she could have gotten through the gates, Aryx and Terroka had already made their stop. They sat by a tree not too far from the Garden entrance, and Aryx set the little stone down on the side of the trunk. He supposed if his friend's resting place would be anything, it would be something he's familiar with. He deserved a good place for his stone to be set.
Aryx silently gave his goodbyes, while Terroka stood up above him, watching him, wishing she could show sympathy for the problem he was dealing with. However, there was no way to undo this. An when it came to Aryx, there was probably no way of making it easier on him.

((This thread will be ended by the time the name is uttered. If you're okay with that, then there should be no need for me to drag on anymore. OvO))

Terroka would have put flowers on the stone, if she had any. It would be rude of her to pick flowers from nearby, but maybe it wouldn't matter too much. After all, they already put him in a garden.
