A gentle breeze

Ilmeari sat in an open area inside a large dimly lit room. Shelves lined all four walls, broken only by a water feature that ran down the wall opposite the only door into the room. All of the shelves contained books of different sizes, their bindings ranging in colour from Green to Black. The Dark red wood of the shelves glowed softly in the dim light. It surface rubbed smooth by 1,000s of hands and the sliding of the books. There was a square of packed earth in the centre of the room, it's edge surrounded by a wide strip of deep red carpet. Four braziers burned in each corner of the packed earth. A gentle breeze moved around the room from the large hole in the domed ceiling.

It was here where Ilmeari sat in a small whirlwind of air. Her legs crossed in a yoga style. Her pawed hands rested gently on top of her folded knees. Ilmeari's tail rested lazily over one thigh as she held her back straight. The only signs of life coming from the feline was the slight movement of her lips and the soft rise and fall of her chest. She held her eyes closed as she listened to the sound of the four elements around her.

The slight breeze moved the soft fur that covered her body. It shimmered in the fire light. At this moment in time all Ilmeari was wearing was a small loin cloth and a matching bra. Her normal weapons sat on top of some of the books beside the water feature. She faced the door as if waiting for someone to enter.
