Lore: The Child with Dead Eyes

[Soran Nightblade]

Thread started by Mizuki on October 6, 2004

Mizuki:

Presea walked the land towards the house upahead. She hadn't stopped for anything. She just kept her dead looking pale grey eyes forward and lost in her own world. A tiny male voice groaned around Presea's waist and Presea stopped mindlessly.

"Can we rest little one?" said the bear strapped to Presea's waist. Presea kept looking forward into nothing but spoke like an android.

"If we stop our mission shall be delayed. Besides, it is only a few more miles to go." She spoke coldly with no feeling.

"Presea we have walked for days pratically non stop. Keep this up and you will have no strength! We need rest and food."

"You are a bear who couldn't possibly have those sort of feelings, Borel we will walk." She started on her pace again.

"How shall you right the wrong if you have no strength?" That stopped Presea again.

"We shall camp here for the night then head onward to the town ahead." The bear sighed in releif and wondered how the girl manages these feets. Presea put her bear down on a rock and grabed for her rather overly sized axe to chop down wood for a fire.

---

As the night descended upon them the small brown teddy bear sighed again on Presea's lap. Presea looked down on it with her pale grey, unfeeling eyes, yet they sparkled somewhat with unshed tears.

"Presea do not cry." said the bear.

"I do not cry Borel. That is a feeling of sadness I do not know. Tell me Borel, of these 'feelings' people with souls have." Presea said with no emotion hinted behind the words. Borel knew Presea did not feel any emotion but he always wondered why she cried every night.

"Feelings are what people gain when... well, it's hard to explain actually."

"Feelings are a sign of weakness and slow the fighter down when in battle." Borel sighed. 'She will never understand I fear.' he thought sadly and cursed those scientists who cursed her this way.

"We should sleep before dawn comes so we have the strength to move on again." Presea laid down on the blanket she spread on the ground and drifted into sleep holding the bear in her arms. Though, Borel the bear laid awake in her arms. 'We should find someone who could help her regain her soul back. She is just a walking shell with the purpose of revenge. 'she needs another living companion besides me to have contact with, maybe that could help her... '

Emora:

Ora walked the dark streets of Arroes alone that night heading back to her home where Celadon and her brother were. She was finally free from Havick... though she knew it wouldn't be long before he found some way to force her to finish of her brother's debt.

She hugged her cloak tightly to her to cover up her bar maids dress and to keep herself warm as she did so, hoping to get home before she got herself into trouble.

She was humming a light, but sad tune. She missed Julie... the little girl she had to give up so she could have a better life than the one that Arroes could give her. The little girl was like her own... and she had grown to love her so much.

Mizuki:

OOC: Well, I was online and no one was saying anything to me about it so..^_^..after this I'll make a small post in Hepian...I think...

Presea was awake but she didn't feel like she really was. She was standing on a high tree branch just staring out to the twighlight skyline. The stars were scattered about making a beautiful scene for one to enjoy... if this girl could feel happiness. Borel the little bear was still sleeping on below on their little campsite.

"Borel says the calm nights like this always make him smile and happy." Presea said emotionlessly to herself. "I wonder what it would be like... to smile like that." Presea ressumed staring off at the night sky with her souless eyes with her mind wondering about emotions Borel talks of and planning her revenge, the only one emotion she feels.

Emora:

Ora could have sworn she heard some one speaking... She looked off at the darkness, for Ora had very good ears. It helped with her brothers smuggling operation. She walked towards the place she thought she had heard the voice from, having to go into the darkness... who knew what lay beyond it.

"Hello?" she asked wondering who would be out at this time of night. Some people did get confused since there were only about three hours of sunlight doing the day and that was if the Witch Queen was sleeping!

Mizuki:

Presea's head mutely turned in the direction of the new unfamilar voice. It was female, a kind female voice which was new for Presea only hearing's Borel's kind male voice for so long in her lifetime. This voice being so new and quite interesting to Presea, she hoped down with great ease from her high perch on the branch and walked up to the voice scooping up the sleeping Borel bear in her arms.

Steppng forward, Presea says no words of confirmment, she just walks up the the female scaring her slightly.



Emora:

Ora jumped slightly when the girl walked out all of the sudden with no warning as to the fact she was coming. "Oh... you scared me..." she said softly and looked at the unknown person for a while. Her eyes narrowed slightly as she tilted her head.

Something seemed wrong with her... like she was very sick or something. "Are... are you alright?" she reached out a hand slightly to see if she was.

Ora was a kind hearted person and the thought that this girl was hurt or sick made her want to help.

Mizuki:


Presea eyed the hand and stepped back suddenly josteling Borel. Borel woke up and took in the situation with his little black bead bear eyes. Borel becomes surprised at this new woman before them and sensed Presea's... fear. 'If you can call whatever she's feeling fear.' he thought.

"Presea it's alright." he spoke in his tiny bear voice. "She means no harm to us." Presea stared still at the woman with her dead eyes determening if she was an enemy that's head should get choppped off or not. Stepping forward quickly ignoring the given hand.

"Do you partake in any scientific activity?" Presea said with no emotion. If it was possible, Borel rolled his teddy bear eyes and groaned. 'Please say no girl.' he thought pleadingly.

Emora:

"No..." Ora said a little puzzeled by the question being asked to. "I've never been to any sort of school..." She arched an eye brow examining the girl and confused by why she would ask her such a question.

"Are you alright?" Her eyes were strange and lifeless... what had this poor girl been through? Was it the reason she asked her if she had dealings in scientific activities?

Mizuki:

Presea looked as if she was calculating this woman. Eventually she backed down and clutched the bear she held tighter.

"She seems safe Borel." Presea said to the bear forgetting that this woman had no idea about the history behind Borel the bear. Borel nodded in agreement.

"Apparently so child." Borel said.

"Must I tell you I am not a child again Borel? I'm over 1,000 years." Presea said cooly."Presea." she spoke quickly to this woman her name and held out her teddy bear like a small toddler. "This is Borel."

Presea was still looking with no emotion on her face or any interest in the situation, but she learned from Borel it was the 'normal' ways of actual living creatures to be polite and exchange names. And Presea, fighting for her humanity back, would try to do what was expected of her... if she could actually have emotions.

Emora:

Ora was confused by why the bear was speaking and for a moment she thought she was going insane... but no... the bear was speaking. "Nice to meet you..." Now... Ora had finally seen it all... a bear that talks... In this world she had come to know that anything was possible and it was really very possible that some evil person had turned a good person into a bear or something like that. Did she just say she was 1,000 years old? Dear lord...


She wanted to ask the girl about the bear but... she thought better of it. "The streets aren't safe..." she really wanted to talk more with this girl. there was just something compelling her to help the girl... and she didn't even know what was wrong. "I'm not a freak or anything, but I wouldn't feel good if I knew you were on the streets alone... believe me... there are some things on these streets that are horrible...."

Mizuki:

Presea made no reply but went back to her small campfire and grabbed her large axe. She carried it back to the woman with the ease like it was just a feather. Presea saw the surprise on the woman's face with the axe but didn't understand why.

"I can protect myself... but...." Presea started saying. Her stomach growled but she still stood as if nothing happened. "Apparently Borel was right with needing food..."

"That would be kind of you Miss..." Borel started saying but then realized they had never caught her name. 'It would be so nice... If my body wasn't destroyed!' he thought angrily. When he was human it was easy to get a woman... but now as a bear... and this new woman... 'Damnit...'

Emora:

Ora smiled after a moment of hesitation. "My name is Ora..." she said and held out a hand for the girl to shake. Ora's smile was friendly because Ora was as friendly as she was pretty.

Ora wondered what had happened to this girl to make her so... strange. She didn't want to be imposing and ask her questions that were none of her business... but she wanted to know so she might be able to help. Ora knew some things about magic and medicine and she even had become quite accustomed to going to a healer ever since she had met Kezadon...

Mizuki:

Presea looked at the hand Ora held out. Immediantly she became lost and looked more gone from the world than usual. After some time, she grasped it gently and never let go of Ora's hand. Instead of shaking, she was holding. 'What am I feeling?....' Presea thought.

With her free hand she hooked Borel to her belt and slung her axe to her back, again as if it had no weight. Borel sensed the sudden change in Presea then looked to Ora with the look of surprise evident in his little bear eyes. 'This woman just did the immpossible! I couldn't even get her to trust me that quickly!' Borel thought.

Emora:

Ora smiled kindly. "Come along, I'm sure your hungry, I can whip up some food for you..." Ora began to walk, but wanted to walk by the girls side. So she stopped to wait on her.

It was puzzeling and confusing to try and think about what had happened in the woman. No doubt some evil had done it... there was definitely no doubt...

Mizuki:

Presea's stomache gave a hungry lurch at the mention of food but Presea made no expression to acknowledge it. Presea walked side by side with the woman and felt compelled to say something.... but what and why? This was the first time in years that she felt really safe with a person, let alone a stranger. Of course she had her talking bear Borel but... he seemed more like he was fulfilling a duty more than trying to actually care for her, which for Borel wasn't actually true.

For Borel this little girl made him go against everything the Witch Queen was doing. Presea was just a little girl when they were doing the experiments, no more 12, and now she was stuck in her never ageing or growing body until this crime was either fixed somehow or.... she took her own life. Even if Presea's face never showed it, she was in an on going tornment that wouldn't end until the wrong was righted... or maybe even never.

Every night as Borel would look at the girl's tiny body sleeping in a dreamless sleep he would see the little girl on an experimenting table, strapped, unable to do anything but lay there scared. Borel had to literally fight to free Presea, and he lost his life doing so but had managed to take down most of the Queen's scientists in the battle. But on his dying breath he vowed to Presea that he'd always protect and be with her until the end, and he was doing just that, only as a teddy bear.

Presea didn't remember much of that day when Borel became the bear at her waist or the fight at all for that was the day she lost her humanity, but as Presea looked at the kind and gentle woman Ora, she felt her heart beging to warm slightly and Presea wondered if maybe, she could regain whatever humanity she lost back without killing.

"Where do you live?" Borel's tiny voice spoke out breaking the silence, and whatever feeling of change that had entered Presea's mind was gone before it was even experienced.

Emora:

Ora pointed down a road they were about to be on. "It's a small house in between two large buildings. I live there with my brother and Kezadon... My brother is doing something and I think Kezadon might be helping him at the moment. I don't know we'll have to see when we get there. You don't have to worry about them, they are good people."

She smiled to the child and the bear. She was still amazed by the bear being able to talk.

Mizuki:

Borel nodded but Presea tensed. 'Men...' she thought coldly. Men were the people that made her the way she was the only man she felt kind of safe with was Borel, but he's a bear now, not human.

"Are they scientists?" she asked with a hinted icy anger behind her emotionless voice.

Emora:

"Scientists? No!" Ora said and chuckled lightly. "No, no way!" She smiled warmly to the child. "No, there about as likely to be scientists as you and I."

Ora turned down the road and began walking with the young girl and the bear in her arms. "They are nice men, very nice men and you'll enjoy Kezadon most of all... he's very funny."

Mizuki:

Presea gave a nod of approval and walked.

"They are nice men, very nice men and you'll enjoy Kezadon most of all... he's very funny." Ora said.

"Funny... what is that?" Presea asked innocently catching Ora off guard and Borel sighed knowing that it will take awhile for Presea to understand every feeling and emotion. But Presea really didn't no many of the emotions and when someone laughed or cried.. she would ask if they were broken.

Emora:

Ora stopped walking and looked at the girl with a soft expression, feeling very sad that she did not even know what that meant. "It's when something makes you smile or laugh... I have an idea!" she reached for the girls hand to hold it. "I'll let you meet Kezadon and we'll see if you can figure out what funny is before he's through making his jokes!" She smiled warmly.

Mizuki:

Borel smiled a little bear smile agreeing with Ora. Presea just stared but she wanted to learn about these 'emotions', so she nodded and let Ora lead her on to her home.

'Ora is kind to anyone, no questions asked or even a second thought, it seems.' Borel thought. 'Wish I met her before I became this...' He glared out at the road ahead of them as if it was all the road's fault.

"Kezadon." Presea said the name with curiousity to herself. She wondered if maybe, like Ora told, he could spread a smile, whatever that was, across her face.

Emora:

Ora opened the door to her home and walked inside looking around. The candles were lit and she guessed either her brother was home or Kezadon. She motioned for the girl to come with her inside her home. "Come in, it's warm and nice in here, don't want you to catch cold!"

The room had a fire place and a couch sitting against the wall that the door was on and a chair in a corner beside the fire place. There was a table and bench and cabinets and a wooden sink used to pump water in. The floor was wooden and had cracks. There were three doors, two were normal sized and one was smaller. Two led to her room and the other led to her brothers room and the smaller one led to the pantry.

"This is my... home."

((OOC: This is my last post for the night, Kezadon (Zenmusha) is going to post tomorrow!))

Mizuki:

OOC: -jumps around- Cool! Sigh, soon my posting rate will once again lessen after this week when mom comes home. heh..

Presea looked around the home, then she unstrapped Borel from her waist and set him on the floor to stretch his little bear limbs. She took off her axe and set it against a wall. She was tired off always carrying it around on her back. SHe was anxious to meet the man who might actually have her feel her first emotion. She anxious she actually couldn't sit still.

Zenmusha:

Kezadon had spent the entire day looking for a pint of ale... And since he was literally broke, it wasn't easy to find one, or rather pay for one. His small dwarven legs, that had also been used to kick a few murderers on the way home, were tired, and so he went to the kitchen to get himself some... water, and sat on the bench for a while.

With nothing to do, he happened to doze off. And had a really weird dream about a strange child that couldn't smile... His focus on the dream grew smaller and smaller as Ora arrived. Soon, he was half-conscious... What didn't prevent him from falling like a rock, as well as rolling helplessly like one, across the kitchen and into the living room when he tried to get out.

"Arr..." He looked around, and saw Ora. "G'd evenin', Miss Ora... I fear I lost me balance back there... Oh, if only I had ale..." He got up, stretching his short limbs, and noticing the girl... That really looked like the one from his dreams. "And who might'cha be?" He smiled at her, completely ignoring her odd appearance.

Mizuki:

Presea stared blankly back at the man. Borel lightly tapped her leg telling her to answer. "Presea." she said flatly. "Are you Kezadon?" She pointed to him then back to Ora. "She says you tell..."funny" jokes." Presea walked up to him slowly with Borel trodding by her side as quickly as he could, since he would never ever leave her side.

When she was at least a foot closer to him She stared intently at him, as if trying to figure him out. "What is a joke?" she asked truthfully.

Emora:

Ora smiled and looked at the girl and then Kezadon. "Kezadon, this is Presea, Presea, this is Kezadon," Ora said and smiled at them both.

"Kezadon doesn't really tell jokes, but he can I'm sure," Ora said and looked at Kezadon with a warm smile. "He is a very good man to be around and can make you happy very quickly..."

Mizuki:

Presea just stood and stared blankly... but almost dissapointed. Either way, she still no idea what "happy" was.

"I still don't...understand..." Presea said emotionlessly. Absentmindedly she picked up Borel and held him tightly to her chest. "Borel...what is "happy"?'' Borel wanted to explain, he really did, but the only way she would know if she exprienced it.

If Presea knew what sadness was, then there'd be two emotions she really knew well. Sadness and revenge. Silently tears fell down her dead eyes but she made no sound like she was crying.

Zenmusha:

Kezadon searched his mind for jokes that weren't... Well, dirty. It was hard, since they were the only ones he knew... After a while, he remembered one that was only half dirty. "Here's a joke fer ya... There be this yearly contest in Arken, aye? Where a bunch'o folk compete ta find out which ones can hold back the urge to go to the loo. Now, one of'em decides ta put a cork in it. A month be passin' by, an' sumtin' unnatural happens. In Ongoreth, a prisoner is decapitated with a cork, whereas what seems to be horse apples be rainin' in Ighten for a whole eight days."


Mizuki:

Presea still stood...unmoved.

"Ora..." she asked quietly. "Was that a joke?" It was an innocent question coming from a child who knew no emotion. Borel smiled at the dwarf sharing his own, small joke. 'This may take awhile....' he thought, 'He could bring out his funniest but she may still not even smirk.'

It was a funny thought to Borel, disspite the fact that it may annoy the others.

Emora:

Ora smiled, maybe it was just her, but she didn't entirely understand the joke, though she had never really understood jokes any way... she just found something funny about them. "Yes," she laughed and smiled at Kezadon. "I think it was."

Mizuki:

Presea nodded then went over to grab her extremely large axe. She lifted it once again with ease, strapped it to her back then picked up Borel to tie him to her waist.

"Wait," Borel said, "Are you leaving already?"

"We have to move on if we are going to get to the castle." Presea said with no feeling.

"We just got here. We need food and rest." Borel tried to reason with her.

Emora:

Ora noticed she was leaving and held up a hand. "Wait!" Ora said and smiled. "The streets are cruel at this time of night... let me fix you something to eat and you are more than welcomed to spend the night... My brother won't mind at all."

She walked to the kitchen... which was just two steps over and pulled the apron off the wall, slipping it over her neck and turning towards the pantry to get some food for supper.

Mizuki:

Presea watched Ora disappear into her kitchen and shrugged putting her axe back down.

"Thank you..." Borel sighed at her waist in relief. Presea followed Ora into the kitchen not sure what else to do.

"Ora," she said, "How far is it to the castle from here?" It was out of nowhere, but Presea figured maybe Ora knew where the castle layed...?

Ceron:

All of a sudden there is a knock on the door to the house. As the door opens, a rather flashy dressed person enters in the door. "Man it's cold out there..." He notices Presea and states, "Who's the stiff? I mean, hey, I know it's cold out there, but that's just rediculous..." He drops down on a chair in the main room. "Is there any food around here? I'm starving!" He forms a bird out of fire over his head and has it perch on his shoulder. "Like my pet?"

OOC: I hope this guy will be more fun to play than Leon was...

Mizuki:

OOC: I hope no one minds he comes in... i was hoping to have more people in our thread

Presea watches as the newly opened door bursts a rather strange man into the room.

"Who's the stiff? I mean, hey, I know it's cold out there, but that's just rediculous..." the man stated. Presea wasn't sure if he was even talking about anyone in the room.

"Hmmm, apparently he's joking to you Presea." Borel said. Presea looked at the bear on her waist and back at the man.

"He said a joke too?" Presea asked her bear then stared again with her emotionless eyes at the man. Presea then shruged it off as if he were nothing and turned back to Ora again while Borel squirmed out of her belt and over to the new man.

"Excuse me," Borel said, the little bear wobbling over to the new man. "But I believe it's polite to introduce one's self. Just because I was in the Witch Queens army doesn't mean I know no manners." Borel liked to think he was still the big man he used to be.

Ceron:

Poit is startled by the walking and talking bear, and so he falls backwards. "WO!!! A talking teddy bear??? Man I have seen some strange things in my life... but you really take the whole cake. Oh and by the way, my name is Poit..." He gets up and brushes his rear off.

"Now... I wonder if you burn like a regular teddy bear..." He says jokingly. "My pet... ATTACK!!!!" The fire bird swoops in but disappears in front of the bear's face. He falls over laughing at his own joke.

Mizuki:

Borel stands there shocked by the man's...strange ways. But he shurgs it off.

"Presea come and met this Poit man." Borel calls to Presea. Presea turns her head but makes no motion to move.

"I have deducted that he would waste time. I will not waste time." Presea simply said without moving still. Borel sighed angrily but gave up. She has a set mind to do one thing and after that.... what will happen after? Borel looks backs at Poit who still seems to be on the floor but is thankfully not laughing anymore, and shakes his head walking away.

"I fear for Heirot's future..." Borel said walking his best back to Presea.

Emora:

Ora flew around when the door burst open and a rather confident man came strolling in only to plop down in one of her chairs. She stared at him blankly wondering just who he thought he was. "Excuse me!" she said and wiped her hands on the apron, walking around the small table and putting her hands on her hips. She pushed a strand of black hair behind her ear. "Just who do you think you are? Would you like it if I came barging into your home?"

Ora was enraged and her pretty face had a tint of red to it. "It is very impolite and besides it's a good way to get yourself killed," she hissed. How was she supposed to know weather he was some thief or murder?! He could very well be for all she knew. "I will kindly ask you to leave, then I will make you leave..."

Unless there was some way he could convince her to let him stay, she would use what ever she had to get him out of her house and at the moment it would be a cooking pan…

Ceron:

All of a sudden the owner of the house starts yelling at Poit. "You know... it is not nice to yell at your guests... But since it looks like unless I try, you will hurt yourself trying to get me to leave." He turns to Presea "Now how could I! The great Poit, Wizard extrordinare!(sc?) I could help you to your destination if you would like."

Emora:

Ora's mouth fell open and she stepped forward. "I could make you get out of this house if I wanted to!" she was furious at how cocky this man was and that he was totally ignoring they fact he had come barging into her home in the middle of Arroes, probably the most dangerous place on earth with out giving so much as a warning. What was she supposed to think, that he was some kind of saint? No! Wrong, that was the last thing she thought at the moment.

"How did you know she needed help and how did you know we were hear? What makes us think your not some Arken scientist she is after trying to trick her..." Ora pointed out. "You just can't barge in and have us automatically trust you..."

Mizuki:

"How did you know she needed help and how did you know we were hear? What makes us think your not some Arken scientist she is after trying to trick her..." Ora was saying and Presea immediantly sprung into action.

She quickly grabbed her axe and swung it at Poit's neck stopping an inch away from it.

"An Arken scientist must die..." she said coldly.

"Presea calm down!" Borel started protesting with her. "He's not an Arken scientist! He's just a cocky man from nowhere!" But Presea didn't move her axe away and Borel began to worry. "Presea don't..."

"They did this to me Borel... look at me... I'm not even living anymore, nor are you. I must act against all Arken scientists." Presea spoke with cold, calm, anger in her voice and she glared at Poit. "Give me one good reason why I shouldn't kill you.." she said to Poit.

Ceron:

Poit suddenly seems to dissapear. Poit's voice can be heard from on top of the axe coming from a 3 inch man standing on it. "Now, reason one on why you shouldn't kill me. I am NOT an Arken scientist. Reason 2, is that you seem to have an illness that interests me, and I would like to acompany you so that I may help find your cure. Those are 2 very good reasons not to kill me."

Mizuki:

"Now, reason one on why you shouldn't kill me. I am NOT an Arken scientist. Reason 2, is that you seem to have an illness that interests me, and I would like to acompany you so that I may help find your cure. Those are 2 very good reasons not to kill me." a 3 inch man started saying.

Presea became perplexed. "How did you do that? You have wings?" The little man had a beautiful pair of wings on his back.

"Oh! A fairy Presea!" Borel exclaimed.

"A fairy?" Presea stared at the fairy in emotionless awe. Her face showed no emotion but she was staring in awe at the fairy man. "You wish to help me?"

Ceron:

"Why yes I do." Poit flips off the axe and he turns back into the big human again. He then turns to Ora "I hope I have proven my good intentions..." He bows, "And if not... may I ask what will prove my good intentions?"

Emora:

Ora looked at him for a moment. "I think only time can tell that for I can not judge your intentions by merely your word," she said and looked at him. "For now you are welcomed here, but if you are not what you say, I'll do my best to kill you."

Ora may not have been the fighter type, but she was a strong willed woman and would do her best to help and protect people.

Ceron:

"Ah, well I hope I don't disappoint you. Now, where is there a bed around here? I'm tired from all this negotiating and being threatened... Also, where are we going my dear stiff?"

Mizuki:

"Stiff?" Presea said finally bringing down her axe. "No it's Presea." she simply said. Borel shook his head and yawned. Presea's stomach growled. "I am hungry."

"As we can hear." joked Borel.

Emora:

"Well I was cooking before I get so rudely interrupted," Ora said and turned to go back to her stove. With in minutes she had a fine meal prepared and laid out on the table. If there was one thing good she could do that was cook. She had been doing it since she was small, who else was going to fix her food with her parents dead.

"There," she said putting napkins and forks down. "Have a seat and enjoy."

Ceron:

He looks at the meal that is in front of him. "Wow, this meal looks amazing..." He is in awe becuase he hasn't eaten a real meal since he was in the last town a year ago... "I can't believe it... It is even better than the inn I was at last year!" He scarfs down his portions rather quickly and awaits his seconds.

Mizuki:

Presea ate slowly. The food was good. So good that she even commented on it surprising Borel.

"This is... good Ora." she said.

"Presea," Borel said surprised, then smiled. "Good girl." then he turned his attention to Ora. "I must admit Ora, you've been the first person we've seen in awhile and you've done wonder's with Persea!"

Borel was sitting as if a person at the table. But since he wasn't human anymore he really couldn't taste any of Ora's food. He was just a possesed teddy bear.



OOC: I may have screwed up somewhere with Borel being able to eat... i'll fix it if need be.

Emora:

((OOC: I think it's ingenious))

Ora smiled proudly and sat down her fork, rising to give them seconds if they wanted it. "I thought myself. You can ask my brother, he had to go through many years of burnt food until I got it right," she smiled warmly at them, setting back down.

"I only have two beds and one belongs to my brother, he's not supposed to be back until morning or late night... So Presea can have it. I am reluctant to give my bed to some one as rude as you, Poit... but you may have it if you are that tired. I can sleep just as well on the couch."

The house was a small house amongst large builds. They floor, doors, and anything else that was wood creaked. There was a stone fireplace, the stone was old and crumbling but it was still good enough. The couch was old and the arms of it were wicker. There was a chair and a rocking chair.

Mizuki:

"No," Presea said once again surprising Borel. "Keep your bed. I'll take your couch." Borel chuckled softly at Presea.

"Every second now Presea does something new. AMazing." he said and turned to Poit. "Tell me something, why are you interested in Presea's quest to get revenge? She'll possibly be killing people."

Ceron:

"I may be rude, but I can't take your bed. I do have some decencies. And Presea, you take the bed. You deserve it. I don't need it. To answer your question Borel, I really cannot answer that yet, I don't even really know. I guess its just my sense of trying to keep things right..." he states. He finishes his meal and walks over to the couch and becomes the faery again, and sleeps under the couch, to hide from what? Only he knows.

Emora:

"Well, that leaves my brother's bed, Presea, you can use that," Ora said and smiled as she picked up the dishes and put them in the sink to wash them. She pumped the water and ran soup over them as she put them in the sink to wash.

Zenmusha:

OOC: *slaps himself around for a bit for not being stiffer than Presea during these days...*

IC: Kezadon had kept wisely on the background, keeping a passive view of the events. In fact, he even got to the extremes of eating silently. These newcomers were most interesting...

He got off his seat. "Aye, a good thin' I be used'ta sleepin' on the floor..." He was still a bit suspicious of the new residents of the house. Especially the fairy. For now, he'd keep a low profile...
