Before the stars faded and the darkness with it young Nicolas had been up and off to explore, the boy figuring that he could go out and have a little bit of fun and then be back before anyone awoke and was the wiser. Dressed in a simple tunic and pants the brown haired, blue eyed boy was now on his way back, figuring to slip back into his bed and pretend as though he had been there this entire time. Actually he was fairly tired at this point since his few hours of wandering had tired him out, the excitement of that having done wonders to make him desire sleep.
Being a part of the traveling troupe of entertainers was all that he had ever known but as he grew older he was starting to get an adventurous streak. That was making him become a bit of a daredevil, as was evident by his little excursion out on his own. He was a musician as well, being fairly skilled with a lyre an having a sweet singing voice though he tried to avoid that more often than not as he got older.
He was also a bit of an acrobat and enjoyed participating in the plays that the troupe performed when he could. However he was guilty of occasionally trying to shirk his responsibilities in favor of going to have an adventure.
Hearing the sound of the lute his gaze shifted in that direction and as the song drifted to his ears he of course immediately recognized it. His mother and singing a song that he'd heard more times than he could count, the kid smiling slightly and then returning to the task of getting back to bed without anyone catching him though if he couldn't manage that then he was planning on lying and saying that he'd woken up but recently. Lying was of course frowned upon but as far as Nicolas was concerned it was better than getting himself into trouble by a long shot.
