They rode in silence from there on out, with the old man occasionally humming to himself. After the brief outburst he had reverted back to his cheery self and babbled about all sorts of unimportant things while the men grunted in response, apparently quite used to his behaviors. They barely even looked at the prisoner. All in all it was a strange bunch she was with. Several hours later, the tone of the horse's hooves changed from dirty to cobblestone, signaling their arrival at the Duular mansion. The old smiled brightly at her once again. "Time to meet your captors." He proceeded them out of the carriage while the two men carried her in between them by the arms to what looked reminiscent of a throne room.
There were 3 people sitting on the 'thrones': One young looking boy and two elder sisters who had to be twins. They all had dark brown hair, almost black, but blue eyes glittering like shards of ice. They all looked like pale porcelain dolls until they moved. The sisters were on either side of their brother and the one on the right smiled darkly. "Good work Jensen. I trust you have set everything up appropriately?"
The old man, Jensen, nodded with another one of his cheery smiles. "He should be showing up within a few hours, plenty of time to prepare our little bird here." All of the eyes fixed on their captive now, the twins wearing identical smiles of satisfaction.
The twin on left stood up and came to examine Aisha. "Isn't he a pretty one? I can see why Talie would be letting this one follow him around." She looked like she might do something more for a moment but apparently decided to give the prisoner a bit of reprieve for the moment and returned to her throne. She flashed one parting smile and blew a kiss as she sat down though. "We might have to play some time later."
The other sister smirked. "Perhaps Talie will play with us too." From their familiar manner of speaking, there was almost certainly some sort of past with these two as well. The two exchanged looks then and gestured towards Jensen.
Jensen nodded and led his group off again, carrying Aisha to another small room with no windows and only one door. There was a small cot to sleep on and strangely enough a book case with an adjoining desk and chair. Aisha's bonds were finally cut loose and she was sat firmly on the bed while Jensen settled in the chair. "Well that went quite swimmingly didn't it? The ladies seem quite fond of you." He grinned mischievously.
