Count and Map reappeared in the study. Map wobbled a little, "Oh... how exhilarating!" she held on to his arm for support, "I've never had an experience like that before."

Count: I have the power to control darkness. I can use it in a numerous ways, one of which is teleportation.
(Count opened the door to her office and the two walked in. Count helped support Map into her chair. Count placed his hands inside his sleeves.)
Count: The telegram, the one that one of the triplets sent me, stated something about rebels in your castle. If you have any suspicions on anyone being a traitor, I can use my powers to have them remain in your loyalty, permanently. I can make them easily obey you, just like that Emily girl.

"I would really rather just lock them in a dungeon..." Map watched his eyes for a moment, and decided his idea was better, "On second thought... thank you Count. That is a spectacular idea." Her dizziness had passed and she was ready to continue on with what ever need be, "Now then, my study is hidden."
Map walked over to the book case and ran her hand behind it till it clicked. the case slid to the side and a low light glowed, "This way," Her smile small and innocent in appearance.

(Count watched as Map opened the secret passageway. He stepped aside to let Map pass through first. Once she entered, he walked inside the passageway, and began following the faint light. As he made his way through the passageway the light got brighter. Once they reached the end, he looked around his surroundings. There were books reaching toward the ceiling in every direction he looked. He was astounded and the look on his face showed it. He turned to face Map.)
Count: I'm speechless right now... Should we get to the matters at hand?

"mmmh. no... we can wait a little while," she slipped into the cozy chair closest to the tall lamp, "Do you know what makes taking the castle the very best feeling?"

Count: From what I've done in the past, I had many feelings toward everything. But I shall not guess how you feel in finally achieving this great accomplishment that you have long been desiring. What is it?

(Max looked at the ground when Marcus asked him that.)
Psychonaut: Count's my father.
(Max's voice was monotone. His tone made it difficult for Marcus, the Triplets, or Talia to understand how he felt about his father. There was an awkward silence.)

After a while the silence got to him. "Oh... well... Um. Oh-kay then. So are you like gonna take his place when he dies or some thing like that?" Marcus asked to break the tension.

"It is the fact that she new nothing of this place. I've known since I was first a maid here. That is how things start I suppose. It's the fact that I took from her what she was given, and she couldn't stop me." she let herself sink deeper into the chair, "I'm sorry, I should really keep my feelings to myself. You see, we just acheived this today." Maps smile was brilliant and charming in a very sweet childish way.

(Max looked at Marcus and nodded.)
Psychonaut: Yeah.. he actually told me this a few days ago. So yeah, I'm the future Count. I don't know why he told me this so soon. I guess he fears his time is coming.
(Max looked down when saying the last part. He felt a little guilty that he might be responsible for his end.)
Psychonaut: Guess this means that I'm going to be the boss of all of you.
(He looked up and smiled, as he made this truthful joke.)
.......
(Count nodded in disagreement.)
Count: Don't be sorry. This is a great accomplishment that you have strived so long to achieve. Today is your special day; today is the day you should celebrate your victory.

"Really?" she looked over to him starry eyed and smiling, "Well then let us celebrate, for both of today's accomplishments!" the albino woman went to the wall and tapped it. The wall slid to the side and the kitchen was visible, "Hannah!"
a little woman bustled forward with a bottle of wine and a glass, then she saw Count and hurried off for another glass.

"Eh? Is that so?" Marcus said smiling. He didn't mind talking. He actually rather enjoyed it. It made him forget about the past for a bit. "Must be nice to have a dad..."Marcus muttered more to himelf than to anybody.

(Max looked at Marcus sympathetically. He crossed his arms and thought of what he should say.)
Psychonaut: I'm sorry. But with all due respect, he's not exactly the world's best dad.
.....
(The Hannah woman gave them their glasses and poured the wine into them. Count took his glasses and rose it in the air.)
Count: A toast to our new relationship between thy kingdom and the Sovereigns. Let this day be the start of many great days to come.

"Gute Beziehungen und Erfolge," she beamed as the glasses clinked, "Danke Hannah." Map turned and tapped the wall again and the wall slid back into place.
"So wqhat book would you like to venture into?" Map had sipped at her glass of white wine. It was even better now that it was hers.

(Count drank some of his wine. He looked at Map, thinking of which book. Turning away he started to look at books around the room. He grabbed one that he liked and took it to Map.)
Count: How about this one?
