****NEW DAY*******
*Nightfall was bored. Now that she couldn't go to school anymore, she didn't have anything to do. And that was disastrous for a girl like her. She did her most fatal pranks out of boredom. So in frustration she came into uncle Ramses bookshop, looking for something to read, to study on her own.*

Ramses was busy putting the finishing touches on the nursery when he heard the bell ring on his shop door, he looked out the hallway and smiled.
"Afternoon Nightfall."

*Nightfall noticed Ramses and smiled back. The sunshine fell in through the window, and made her dark hair shine like silk, and her beautiful, green eyes were glittering. For a moment she looked exactly like Leetah had done when she was younger.*
"Good afternoon, uncle Ramses. Can you recommend any books I could read to maintain my studies?"

Ramses looked away quickly, ignoring every thought that might have appeared in his head.
"Well we were just begining the history of Lorien when you... grew, so you might want to think about looking in the elven history section, starting at the beginning."

*Nightfall walked over to the elven history section and started looking through the books.*
"I had never thought I should hear myself say this, uncle R, but I miss school. Is there any chance for me to continue my education somehow?"

"I told you if you wanted to continue with school you'd have to sign up for private lessons. And seeing as though I'm one of five real teachers in all of Lorien, you'd probably have to sign up with me." He smiled in a friendly type way and came over to her, covered in dust from the construction.

*Nightfall looked up at him with a glimpse of surprise in her beautiful eyes.*
"There are FIVE teachers in Lorien? I thought you were the only one!"
*She grinned, showing her beautiful white teeth.*
"You never told me where to sign up."

He rolled his eyes and pointed to the wall where is said, perfectly clear "Private lessons with Ramses: Sign here" and smiled sarcastically.
"It's been there for two years."

*She looked at it, puzzled, then bursted out laughing.*
"You know Ramses, if you expected me to find that, you should put it elsewhere. I don't visit your bookshop to look at the walls."
*Still with a twinkle in her eyes, she found a pen and signed on the list.*
"There, it's done. When do we start?"

"It's right next to the bulletin board you stare at every week in hopes to find something more interesting to do in Lorien Nightfall, how you've never seen it is beyond me."
He placed his hands regally behind his back "I've got two appointments tomorrow, the first from 9-12, the other from 1-3, if you'd like to come from 4-7 we may start tomorrow. If you'd rather an early start then the day after tomorrow at 9. Each session is three hours long, obviously, and you shall report here three times a week. That being, if we start tomorrow you will be here Monday, Wednesday and Friday if we start the day after you shall be here Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday."
He raised his eyebrows and looked slightly down at Nightfall "The private lessons will not be all fun and games like my classrooms, you understand that right?"

It's not exactly the bullentin board I'm staring at....
*Nightfall looked up at him, calmly, while she considered her choices.*
"Tomorrow will be difficult for me. Between 4-7 I have fencing lessons with mother. She is working way too hard at the hospital and doesn't have much time for anything else. She looks really tired sometimes, and I'm worried about her health."
*She thought some more.*
"But the day after tomorrow will be fine. And I am ok with the terms for the private lessons. I am, after all, a grown woman now. Not a child anymore."
In case you haven't noticed...

"Well good" he smiled "then I shall see you then" he placed a heavy hand on her shoulder "well I've got to get back to work" he turned curtly and began walking toward the back of the shop.

*Nightfall looked after him with a glimpse of humor in her eyes.*
"It would be easier for your students to attend to your classes if you told them where these classes actually are. Would it be at my place, your place, the bookstore, or the classroom?"

"I all ready told you to come here" he laughed "maybe if my students listened they'd hear me."

*Nightfall laughed.*
"Ok, you got me there. There has been so many other things going on in my mind. I'll try to be better. But I'm keeping you from your work."
