Fantasy (｡◕‿◕｡)The Lunar Lotus Inn(｡◕︵◕｡) [All Are Welcome~]

The Faerie managed a weary nod, and headed towards the direction the rooms were in. She did not turn back to see if the man was following her as she entered the candlelit hallway and stopped by a wooden door when the key's arrow blinked rapidly. Mirage unlocked the door, pushing it open to look inside. It conveniently had two beds situated on both sides of the room with a restroom and a small table accompanied with a desk.


"Looks like you don't have to sleep on the floor," she murmured, collapsing onto the bed as exhaustion over took her. "Use anything in the room. I've never set foot in it." Not caring to discard her outer layers, Mirage burrowed underneath the covers, sleep the only thing on her mind. Her lids closed, and she drifted off, hoping that her dreams would be free of her usual nightmare.

Takara Hiroji

Keeping his back turned towards the woman after removing his coat and black undershirt that he had hidden the large scars upon both his back and chest; as expected, the instant the sight of his back had been revealed to Khaleesi, the sounds of the woman behind him collapsing to the ground with her squeak would only have Takara turn his head over his shoulder ever so slightly. Concern filling his violet gaze as he had watched her for a moment in silence. "My apologies--..." Just as he had apologized to the woman for having her see such a thing, once the woman had stated that the scars were amazing; the innkeeper would only gasp sharply as his hues widened in pure shock as to what she had meant by such words. "Amazing...Miss Khaleesi? What do you mean..?" As he had questioned the nurse about her own words, once she had stated that something would begin to hurt him; the instant the cream that she had began to place upon his injuries as well as his scars touched his flesh, Takara would've immediately winced in the slightest amount of pain from the sensation of the smaller wounds being healed by the cream itself. The scars however, the more the cream had attempted to heal and remove the scars from his very body itself; carefully yet subtly small sparks of black energy leaked from around the edges of the scars as they kept the scar itself from being treated. The smaller wounds however luckily still healing away the pain and injuries he had received from he battles.


Soon, once Khaleesi had stated that he needed to turn around so that she could get his back. Takara had wasted none of his time to do just that as he had sat there simply in silence to allow the same wincing pain to go onto his back scar and injuries as well. The one thing though that soon caught his attention was once she had questioned him about the scars themselves, it was already a lot as it was to show them to someone; especially an employee but to go as far as to admit where they had come from to someone who probably wouldn't believe him about him being or used to be an angel in a war against the two worlds. "It is a long story...maybe one day, but my apologies that I cannot tell you yet Miss Khaleesi..." Informing the nurse about it, just as his wounds were being healed with the injuries finally disappearing thanks to the cream as well as the magic that the hooded woman from earlier helping him with, Takara was finally able to slowly but surely be able to regain his energy much quicker. Whenever Takara had fully regained his energy, he would return to do battle with the guardians once more; hopefully being able to make the outcome differently.

Garry followed the girl. Being lucky, there were two beds in it, which means he has to hug his panda pillow. Maybe I'll ask what her name is after I woke up. Garry muttered, then he collapsed, not closing the door.

You never see your family again, not after they take you. She glanced at the figure beside her, giving it a broken smile. The ground gave away underneath her and the night sky flashed by her as she plummeted, eyes closed and in peace.





Mirage abruptly sat up, sweat glistening on her features as she took quick, shallow breaths. Her hair was a tousled mess, and her head throbbed with pain. Sharp images appeared across the bedroom, duplicates of her that disappeared as quickly as they had came. To her dismay, her abilities were fluctuating as they often did after she had nightmares. The faerie shoved the covers off her trembling body and stood, swaying as she struggled to gain her balance. Mirage glanced to the other side of the room, where the male she had met earlier lay, sleeping quietly with what seemed to be a panda pillow. Deciding not to wake him up, she silently slipped out of the room, closing the door as it had been left open.


Unfortunately, Mirage's abilities were still fluctuating, and to keep them from being seen, she masked herself with her invisibility. The inn seemed quiet save for the chatter in its dining area and the light coming from one of the offices. The throbbing pain within her head intensified, and she slumped against the wooden walls near said office. Although she could not be seen, she could still be heard, and with that in mind, the faerie clamped her hand over her mouth to prevent any noises that would give her away. The effects of this nightmare seemed to be lasting longer than she had expected, and if she was lucky, the pain would slowly extinguish itself. But as of the current moment, Mirage remained, still very much in pain, slumped against the wooden walls.

Garry got alerted by a sound. He sat up in the bed quickly and unsheathed his Stygian Iron daggers. Who's there? Garry inspected their room, then he got outside to the corridor. There are no signs of loss or any change inside their room, but then he noticed the girl was gone. Near the office, there were signs of footsteps, just near the door, but it doesn't seem like anyone's inside. Hello? Garry chimed, waiting for an answer.

Mirage stilled as she heard footsteps nearing her. She swallowed as the male from previously stopped a few inches from where she was. She tried to slow her ragged breathing and lowered her hand, briefly closing her eyes. He called out, and the abrupt sound amplified the pain within her head. Her invisibility fluctuated once more, and she was shortly revealed before disappearing from his line of sight. She could not summon the energy to move from her position, and instead tilted her head upwards, grimacing at the throbs bouncing within her head.

The sound as soon as it started stopped. "It sounds like it landed." Fear said to his friend. "Pheonix maybe? Either way we should go check it out." He stated.

"I hope it's a dragon. If it's one of the talking ones, I might get some news about my home. But we should be cautious."

[ZappiestAbyss]

"Maybe." Fear walked through the woods and walked into a clearing. In such said clearing was a man in orange robes and a dragon with pearly white scales.


@Stormyface

 

[Stormyface]

"I called it." Alagos whispered to Fear.


"Hello, orange man! What business brings you here?"

"Sir... I am just an employee.. Please do not call me Miss..." Khaleesi said with a bright smile. She looked at the pain she had caused him and sighed, her eyes widened a little more than expected. Once the black stuff had came from his wounds. She had a face of worry. The looked so hurt.... She slowly put the cream on his back, making sure not to touch the scars that were already there.


"Forgive me for asking Sir..." Khaleesi said as she lifted his arms and began wrapping the bandages around his torso and back. Once she was done she had placed a safety pin, making sure not to poke Mr. Takara in the back, and then moved on to his arms. A small yawn was placed in between her wrapping as she took his hand, and wrapped it, moving it upwards, to his shoulder.


Once she had finished with that she looked at Mr. Takara with widened eyes. A bow was placed upon the scene as she looked at the ground. "Sir... I'm sorry for making you hurt, it's just my job... You know..." She said and sighed lightly, beginning to walk to the door. A small smile creased on her face so she wouldn't look worried as she walked out the door. "I expect you to get some rest... Mr. Takara..." She said as her hand was placed around the doorknob.

Takara Hiroji

Just as she had continued to place the healing cream soon onto his back along with upon his arms; the innkeeper would listen as to how the woman had stated that she was an employee and not to call her by the title of 'miss'. Although he had not shown his face as he kept his back turned to her, the very fact that she had stated those words had only kept Takara with his usual warm smile across his lips as he nodded right after. Employee or not, the white haired male had called people normally by titles simply to try and be as polite as possible; if Khaleesi hadn't wished for him to call her by such, he would respect her enough not to do so any further from now on. Soon after, as the nurse had helped him raise his arms simply for her to begin wrapping the large bandages around his chest and back area along with his arms in the white cloth; hearing as to how she had apologized for asking of the scars, would've only caused Takara to arch a brow in full confusion as he quickly directed his gaze over his shoulder to watch her expression, her kind smile across her lips as she had spoken only caused him to watch her with a slight tad bit of confused shock and even more so once she had stood up to begin heading her way over towards the doorway while she once more apologized for making him hurt even if it was her job.


With the questioned expression across his features, Takara had soon helped himself off from the seat he had been sitting upon rather carefully. Even if his wounds had been fully healing at this point, his energy was still in need of returning in full before he had done anything too drastic just yet. Immediately, as the dark haired woman placed her palm upon the doorknob; just at that very moment, he would place his own right hand onto her shoulder gently. "Mi--...Khaleesi. You do not need to apologize for anything, if anything. I thank you for your assistance in helping me with my injuries; do not concern yourself for causing me pain in anyway during this. I must fight through the pain to be able to get better, right? So do not apologize...The scars. If you truly wish to know, I will inform you later on once I return. I will still need to take care of some business, once they are taken care of and I return later on. I will tell you what you wish to know...so until then. Thank you." With those few words had left his lips, the innkeeper would slowly embrace the woman from behind with a gentle hug for a moment before keeping his usual smile until he would finally release her and make his way towards one of the other doors that had lead out of the office towards the direction of the lobby once more.


Just as he had left the office however, even if Takara hadn't been in his full strength; he was strong enough to easily notice energy signatures around him. With little more then the slightest bit of effort, it was rather obvious enough that as he had stepped out into the hall, the immediate sense of someone or something had been lurking around the dark halls at this point. Shifting his gaze from one direction to the next, the innkeeper had made sure to slightly button his white overcoat of his suit to make sure to hide the bandages underneath them. His violet hues shifting around the area as he soon progressed his way carefully down each step. The one voice at first that had caught Takara's attention at first was none other then a male voice, one of which that seemed to end up soon leading the innkeeper towards the very same male the Takara had stated for Khaleesi to greet earlier when he had spoken with the woman who gave him the crystal earlier; Mira. Questioning himself at the moment just where the signature had come from, while he had continued his way down the hall; even though he had found the other male, the energy hadn't leaked from him. It was someone or something else. 'Strange...Who's here...Dammit, why do I need to be weakened in such a time like this...?' As he had cursed to himself, even though the innkeeper had enough strength to know there was another signature in the current area; due to his conditions he was unable to fully pinpoint out where it had been coming from exactly.

More footsteps neared, and Mirage instantaneously regretted stepping out of her bedroom. If she had not have done so, she would not have exhausted herself to the point of collapsing. But nevertheless, she would take considerable lengths to ensure that her dark past remained as it always had, unknown and unspoken of. She pushed herself off of the wall, ignoring the wave of nausea that overcame her, making sure that she was still unseen and took a deep breath to calm the shaking of her body. It was times like these that she wondered if she was truly going insane, that maybe some therapy was needed for the lingering trauma in her mind. She shook the thought out of her head and as she walked forward, without any attention to her whereabouts, crashed into a figure down the hall. Her invisibility shattered as the pain in her head multiplied. She looked upward to the best of her ability, meeting the violet hues of Mr. Hiroji, and mouthed a quick 'sorry' before she collapsed, darkness tinging the edges of her vision.


It seemed as if her dream refused to be left unfinished..

Khaleesi didn't expect his hand on her shoulder. She listened to his soft words, and before she knew it. His arms were around her. No way? Had she really let someone hold her for a moment? The girl froze as Takara walked out of her office. She looked around and hit her head slightly on the door. Her eyes shifted to the knob which made her hand white as she tightly squeezed it. She turned the knob and opened the door with a squeak. Her eyes watched Mr. Takara move down the hall as she slowly followed behind him. She shook her head lightly, staring at the ground before she grabbed the wall, her nails dug into the wood as her thoughts trailed off. Before Khaleesi knew it though, her feet had carried her past Mr. Takara, and the people talking.


Khaleesi's eyes shifted around the room until they met up with the door outside. She growled lightly, moving her hands up and pushed herself outside. Her eyes shifted onto the ground as a cloud of smoke surrounded her. Her dark fur glistened in the light as she ran straight towards the lake. It was big, and a wonderful place to think. Khaleesi's fur let the air flow through it as she ran, making it a peaceful wind, a peaceful time. Her eyes stained onto the river as she stood above it. Her green eyes flickered and watched the slight movement in the water.

Takara Hiroji

Just as the white haired innkeeper had continued on his path way forward throughout the halls in search for the strange energy signature he had noticed soon after leaving Khaleesi's office. Takara had constantly shifted his usual violet gaze around him more and more until the last thing he would've ended up expecting was the sounds of the slightest footsteps approaching him; unaware just from exactly where the footsteps had come from due to his senses on figuring out energy signatures not being at their peak of ability just at the moment, it wasn't until the sudden bump into him had caused the young male to gasp sharply. Directing his gaze downwards only to end up suddenly watching as to how the very same woman from earlier; Mira had made her appearance before him out of what had seemed like thin air. With his violet hues widened in shock of how she had appeared out of nowhere, once she had taken her gaze towards him and mouthed a silent apology towards him; Takara would only tilt his head in pure confusion all the further. Just as the same second that she had mouthed those very words, the sight of her ending up collapsing to the very floor right after had been the last thing the innkeeper would've expected; making sure to immediately drop to a single knee to catch the woman before she had made any rough impact onto the solid floor, the white haired innkeeper had watched in utter shock yet as well as further confusion. Normally enough, if he had been at his full amounts of energy; he would've been able to easily tell that the woman's chi truly wasn't in sync the way it should've been considering her nightmares and such, but due to his own condition that wasn't exactly an option at the moment.


Right as he had held onto the woman upon the floor named as Mira; the next thing to suddenly make another unexpected appearance would've ended up being none other then Khaleesi right after. Without a single word to him whatsoever, he had watched as to how the dark haired woman had simply made her way forward and continued on her way straight for the exit of the inn itself. "Khal--?" Just as Takara had attempted to call out to the woman in confusion on whether or not she was alright from how she had just walked off the way she had without a word. Questioning the thought if everyone was alright in general, soon enough; the innkeeper would help Mira up from the floor before progressing his way towards the staircase once more. Carrying the woman from the stairs itself straight upwards towards his own room, he would lay her carefully down upon the bed simply due to him being unaware exactly where the woman's room was at the moment; it wasn't as though he had kept track of which guest had which room. Right after as he had laid the woman upon the mattress and pulled the covers over her body, he would've wasted no time to place his right palm onto the surface of the nightstand by the bedside. Carefully lifting his palm right back upwards in a slow yet steady pace, the water within the slightest bit of the atmosphere soon formed around his very palm before it would've formed the figure of a small blue bird made out of pure ice. In it's small beak, it held onto a note made exactly out of the same material of ice that the bird was made out of; the note had read that if the woman required any assistance once she had awoken to call to the bird and speak his name then the rest would be taken care of simply.


Right as he had done so, Takara had simply nodded to himself of his work before he would begin to carefully leave his own room, making sure to close the door behind him for the woman to have her privacy for the time being. Knowing well enough that his two important weapons had been in that same room; locked within the closet, the innkeeper had left the strange unknown guest there. Even if the room were to possibly get some type of evil aura of some type; as long as the innkeeper had not allowed it, the weapon would be able to keep itself from being stolen or letting the entire room or area become corrupted. Until he had returned for now Takara would slowly help himself out from the large building of the inn itself to check to see if he could find the nurse employee of the inn all together; the way she had left in silence in such a way was rather strange and he wasn't about to let any of his guests or employees end up getting hurt in the forest around this time of night when the predators would be lurking as they normally did. The only problem was now how to find the woman.

Mirage's eyes fluttered open to an unfamiliar room furnished rather nicely. She took a deep breath, vaguely recalling that she had collapsed due to her run in with the innkeeper. What time is it? It must be around 5 to 10 minutes after my collapse if I still remember it. She turned her head to the side, admiring the neatness of the bedroom and its arrangement, and finally drawing her gaze to a small, animated bird made of ice with a note in its beak. Ignoring it, Mirage slowly sat upwards, resting her head on the wooden board of the plush bed before gently placing her hand on her forehead. Her skin was cool and free of the clammy hotness that had plagued her earlier and her head seemed perfectly fine. The throbbing pain that had resulted from her taxing dream had finally decided to extinguish itself and Mirage suspected the room had a major key in its disappearance. She lifted the covers off of her body and took a deep breath, closing her eyes briefly to bask in the relief she was feeling. Soon afterwards, Mirage reluctantly left the comforting mattress and moved towards the nightstand that held the delicately made bird she had chosen to ignore before. In its beak was a note made of the same material as the animal telling her to call the innkeeper when she awoke. Her dark blue eyes widened and she took another look around the area. She concluded, with her cheeks tinted a soft red, that he had taken her into this room for her to recover, and inwardly cursed, hoping that he was not able to detect the unsettling trauma within her.


"I think I've made myself an inconvenience to Mister Takara Hiroji," she said aloud, a small chuckle to her words.


With the thought in mind, Mirage decided to wait until she had her wits before calling the man. She did not want to disturb whatever it was that he was doing as much as she did not want to suffer the embarrassment of her inconvenient behavior. Instead, she picked up the bird, marveling at its cool touch and the detail of its features. Little did she realize that earlier, when she had voiced her embarrassment aloud, that she had unintentionally called the man through the bird. It dropped the note in her hand and lowered its beak to groom its feathers, seeming not to care of the faerie's presence. Mirage set the animal back down, and made the bed she was in, returning it to what she believed was its previous state. After wasting a few minutes looking around the room, Mirage decided to linger at the desk. It was littered with organized compartments and containers for pens, paper, and other things of the sort that most likely were related to the managing of the inn and Takara's personal writings. She took a blank sheet of parchment and a pen, hoping to return the items after she was finished with her task. She set the bird on the table and settled down. She took the pen into her hands and began drawing the forests of her homeland.

"Hello, orange man! What business brings you here?"


@Nathan22

The person in the orange cloak looked at you with psychotic but clever eyes. She pulled back her hood revealing blue hair. "Hello Fear.~ I see you have a friend. Where's our poor poor brother?"


The dragon looked intensely at you with pearl white eyes.

Takara Hiroji

Standing from the outside of the large inn, the white haired innkeeper had taken a few moments to remain silent as he had concentrated upon whatever energy he had still built up within him to focus upon the chi that had surrounded him. Soon enough, ever carefully; the sounds of the forest itself to Takara's own senses would've gone completely silent, the trees and light of the moon itself had shined down soon vanished all together, leaving nothing but pure black before him. Focusing constantly further in the darkness that had surrounded him; a thick gas-like substance in the color of what had looked to be violet would soon begin to form before his gaze as it had lead down the direction of the forest path that would lead towards the Lunar Lake. This ability was with the assistance of his control over the power of chi as he had used this same power earlier in hopes to had find the energy signature that had soon lead him to end up finding Mira earlier appear before his own gaze. This in particular chi scent was from none other then Khaleesi herself; just as he had began to go towards the direction that he had seen the strange substance.


The whole while as he had continued to follow the chi, he had been completely unaware to the predators that had watched him from the darkness of the forest itself. Due to his energy use being drained while he had kept sure that the direction of where the nurse employee had gone off to hadn't decided to shift off to a different direction, he could not afford to return his focus onto his surroundings for the time being.


Just as Takara had continued on his way however, the sudden sensation of his palm growing rather cold had caused him soon to halt in his own movements as he had directed his gaze downwards towards his palm. It was none other then the small bird of ice that he had left for the guest woman; Mira back at the inn, she had already called for him, meaning she was most likely awake from her state of rest. With the slightest nod of his head, Takara had simply clenched his fist firmly before once more reopening his palm yet again; this time the ice that had began to form around his palm had began to become slight bits of flakes of snow as they drifted from his palm immediately back towards the building to reach towards the location of the innkeeper's own room. Floating through the breeze as well as slipping through the slightest cracks of any wall that the flakes could find to reach the interior of the building and soon reach towards the room of Takara, the flakes had soon surrounded themselves around the small form of the bird once it had been placed down.


Small chirps had soon left the beak of the bird as it fluttered it's own wings rapidly soon enough; hopping itself straight off the ledge of the desk to come upon the floor. Soon the small creature had began to drain in the slightest bit of water within the atmosphere to absorb it into it's small body before long allowing it to morph itself to grow larger and taller and before long forming the exact image of the innkeeper in the sight of a form of ice-like state. Giving a bow towards the woman out of respects once he had been fully standing before her; even if Takara himself had not been there before her, he was able to well enough hear and understand the words as well as speak what he wished through the power of his water/ice manipulation not to mention see what he was needed to see. "Ah. You are awake Miss Mira. My apologies for having you see me in such a way. I am currently out at the moment but will return soon. Are you alright--" As the innkeeper spoke in his usual kind tone, unaware for the moment from his first words as to what the woman had been doing; before long noticing as to how she had been seeming to draw something at the current time; curiosity getting the better of him as he had attempted to lean over and check as to what was being drawn.

May your scales never cease shining, friend. If it is of any significance to you, Syreth has fallen. Would you happen to know anything more?

As Mirage drew, she became too absorbed in her art to realize that the small bird had left its position on the desk and had disappeared to form into the shape of Takara. The sound of his greeting brought her back to her senses and she straightened, noticing the man's presence behind her as he leaned over to examine her drawing. The ice duplicate of the innkeeper surprisingly held a similar aura to the man himself. Her face reddened, as she was often not caught off guard. Unfortunately for Mirage, she was unable to come up with a reasonable explanation for her actions and placed the pencil down. She had managed to draw the bottom of the forest, sketching foliage and the hard trunks of thick trees. There was a pond off to the side with a deer sipping from its surface, its horns arced elegantly in its position. She moved slightly to the side, unsure of what to do in her current state.


"I apologize for invading your bedroom," she finally said, her voice wavering slightly as she kept her gaze straight and refused to look to the side. If she did, her embarrassment would be extremely prominent on her face and questions would be asked.

Khaleesi laid still by the Lunar Lake. It's beauty shimmered off the lake and blinded the sheepishly Khaleesi. She stood up, her emerald eyes of the black and white wolf, walked along the lake, stained to it all. The moonlight was beautiful as it hit the lake and then ended up back into the forest. This was one of the times that Khaleesi looked most beautiful. She had shimmered back to her human form, her green eyes laid upon the lake. Her eyes seemed to be a different color at that moment. It seemed to have a hint of gold, and blue, maybe some green. Her dark hair reflected from the moonlight, into a lighter purple. It was the perfect time to looked at Khaleesi.


The girl didn't hesitate. She made sure no one, not even a bird was around before she pulled off most of her cloths and got into the lake. The cold water made her shiver with somewhat of a loving matter. She moved her hands around the water, not noticing that there were predators around the lake. There were so many of them, their low growls didn't affected how she moved in the water. The girl's eyes shimmered off the water and sighed lightly, dunking a few times, before coming back up and breathing.

The dragon stared at you then retorted with "May your flame stay forever strong." The dragon looked at the human in admiration. "And your city went up in flames."


Fear growled and said "Go burn in hell. You killed my son you piece of shit!"

"I'm not going to pretend I know what's going on, but I'm not going to leave you two alone. There's a nice inn nearby and I still need to convince that little fairy that some life forms are pure evil."

Takara Hiroji

Even as the duplicate ice form of the innkeeper had stood before the woman once she had finally directed her attention upon him, Takara would only remain standing at his full height in his ice-like form as the first thing to actually come from the woman's lips were the fact that she had apologized for intruding into his room; the young innkeeper would be unable to help himself but to let out a light chuckle from his duplicate but as well while he had traveled throughout the forest night. Shaking his head while he stood before her; the innkeeper had soon reached a single arm outwards to pat the woman's shoulder gently while he had kept his usual smile across his lips, even with his form being of pure ice, his touch would still be the same as though he would normally be standing before others in person. His palm easily radiating the normal warmth that would've come from any ordinary person's body heat. "Hah, not a problem Miss Mira. Do not apologize for anything, you were in need of help when you had passed out in the hall. I had moved you here myself for I had not a clue which exact room was yours. My apologies if you are uncomfortable here." As Takara had spoken, his duplicate had once more bowed his head deeply in respects towards her to show his own apology to a guest for bringing them to an unknown room of a place that they barely even knew without their own permission. Unaware fully of her embarrassment currently due to half of his focus being upon both herself as well as the path before him back within the dark forest, the most he could do at the moment was just to know well enough about his own surroundings currently. As of which, soon enough Takara would've ended up pointing out a single finger towards the desk as to where the woman had once been working, curious as to what she had been doodling when he had first made his appearance suddenly. "Ah. If you would not mind me asking, what is that you were doing over there by chance?"

All the while, as the innkeeper's true state had been continuing down the dark path of the forest. It was nearly a miracle as it was to notice as to how he hadn't been struck at by the predators of the night from the forest while he had continued on his way ever closer towards the Lotus Lake. Of course, he hadn't complained one bit about it, the less the predators had decided to show up; the sooner he could possibly reach the nurse to be able to make sure she was alright.


In a matter of minutes though, soon enough the young innkeeper had finally arrived at the very location of where the Lotus Lake had been; finally being able to reach his destination, he would shift his own senses back to halt his check on Khaleesi's own chi. However, the instant the sounds and all of Takara's other senses had returned to him, the immediate sound he had come to find was the instant sound of water moving around slightly. Simply by instinct, as the innkeeper had directed his attention straight over towards the noise he had ended up hearing; the last thing he had ended up meaning to witness was none other then the employee; Khaleesi herself, in the water. Practically almost nude. Gasping sharply with his violet hues widening in shock, luckily the water hiding her body mostly; he would waste no time to turn around quickly to avoid any thoughts of watching her as she had bathed or just enjoyed the dip in the water. The innkeeper's face red as a beet itself as he simply exhaled a deep breath that he had been lucky enough that he hadn't seen anything he was not supposed to. Soon enough, coughing only ever so slightly enough for the dark haired woman to hear him from his location, he would keep his back turned to her slightly. "A-Ah...Mi-...Khaleesi. I had wondered...where you had uhm...w-went. My apologies for intruding on your bath...but I had simply wished to make sure you were alright and okay that you were out here in this time of night."

Khaleesi splashed in the water. She squeaked though, turning herself around and made it so only her head was able to be seen in the night. "S-sir Takra!! I-I'm truly sorry if you saw anything... I um... I shouldn't be out here... But Um... I uh...." She looked down at the water and growled at her reflection. She gasped lightly and pressed her feet onto the ground. She sighed more and looked around, grabbing her cloths quickly though, she crawled out of the water, making sure that Mr. Takara was turned around. Her eyes shifted though, she looked around as she placed her cloths on and shook her head. "Sir! I'm truly sorry!! I really didn't mean for you to come after me... When um.... When you touched me... y'know, like you did... It brought memories I didn't want back... and um..." The small fully dressed Khaleesi almost had tears in her eyes as she was brought back to those memories. She sighed lightly and moved her hand over her eyes, rubbing them lightly. "I'll head back sir.... I'm truly sorry..." She walked up the path towards Mr. Takara, passing him lightly, her head down.
