Welcome to Gaia! ::

He must have been slipping in his thoughts, he didnt hear her come up. Good lord, she is beautiful...how did I miss that perfume. Tricky, very tricky. Have to be a gentleman and keep to myself.
The ruins of Old Ashenvale, then the Wizards must have caused that too. A had a good wander, thank you.
Seeing the orb he wondered if the Wizards had anything to do with this. He heard of trees with intelligence before but they were more in the way of treants, not so with this one.
Tree of Life? Hmm.
He places both hands on the tree, then puts his forehead on the tree with his eyes closed. He suddenly says a word in an unusual tongue that he himself didnt know. His eyes then turn black and many thoughts move through his head. The tree places a few of its branches on him. And they stood like that for a few minutes. Then he finally snaps out of it and pulls away. In that time frame he saw the history of its life. The royalty and its duration, all the way from a sapling. He knew the limits of his powers that were known to it, and why it creates energy for the people to absorb. He looks at her and smiles softly. He even saw her running around as a young girl, she has changed alot.

He looks at the pendant carefully before gently taking it and placing it in his hand. He looks it over a bit more, then locks eyes with her.
Am I wrong assuming this is for me?

When she steps near him he becomes a little dizzy from the perfume combined with her closeness but he doesnt show it by grounding his feet.
Then I thank you both, humbly. As long as your safe I'll try it.
He focuses hard upon the shadows around him and pulls it to him. As he does his eyes become pitch black. When he gathers it up at first it becomes massive and out of control, thankfully the plants and her are protected. Then it forms smaller and smaller into a bead in his hand. He then throws the bead in the air and says a command word causing it to explode, the width almost touching outside the garden.

He smiles with a prideful expression but it quickly fades. He knew not to let it get to his head.
So that is why you absorb energy, its not that you dont get energy back its just this way is faster. Hmm, I think I understand now. I must learn how to control it entirely before I can even think of going home or anywhere with people who cant ward off the attack.
His eyes stayed black, and he could literally see the ambient energy around him flowing like water. He thought of touching it, but he knew what would happen. After a minute the black fades.

He tapped a little into the necklace and pulled some energy off of it. He could feel himself recharging. He smiles both from the feeling it made and from her praise. But he knew he could pull more out of everything else but it could kill things if he did. He didnt bring it up though.
Very well, although I have to tell you that I am already skilled in bows and fletching. But not so with blacksmithing.

That may be true, but this sword would take alot to break.
He concentrates on a bush and images a globe surrounding it and as he did the bush was surrounded in a dark bubble. He then creates a small bead of shadow and throws it at the bush. When it hits it bounces off and flys off. He grins even broader than before, now he knew how to protect people from himself. The grin vanishes quickly when that thought goes through his mind.

He once again forms a sheild around the same plant then draws energy from around himself and forms into an unsteady globe. He then launches it at then brush and it goes off like a grenade, knocking him to the ground. He looks about a little stunned but unharmed. Then stands up quickly and brushes himself off, lest he look undignified.

He smiles a little from the praise, but reminded himself that he musnt let it go to his head. He thought to himself a little hard before coming up with an answer.
Whichever one you find the best view at. I would like to see the rest of your beautiful kingdom.
