*Looked up towards the sky her face, and head facing the sunlight seeking it's warmth however it was fleeting, the gentle feeling of the warmth distant but still there, as if she was using it to guide her.*

`"I also have never made the claim, that you have boasted your strength, my statement was more of an assumption. Most people that come through here with such, tendencies such as yourself seem to make such mistakes. However my assumption may be wrong I do not know."`

*Her head turned back to face him.*

`"I am currently no longer affiliated with this taoist, nor do I wish to be. To answer your previous question I imply that something drives you forward, wether it be indifference, hate, or pride, foolishness to attack one stronger then yourself, or simply to become strong to further your goals, it had lead you here with me and my knights young warrior. In many cultures across many lands I thought it be a tradition of sorts to not attack the host when they offer a hand to you as a guest and vice versa."`

*She walked closer to him looking up at him the spear was pressing against the side of his neck drawing droplets of blood she sniffed the air wanting to see his core smell his energy and how evil it gets she kept her hands by her sides as her knights sheathed there blades confused didn't know what to do she gently placed her hand on the spear gently and took it from his hands softly as the mana presence wore off as it was going to begin to slide across, she gently pressed the tip into the earth beside him as it sank deep standing up, she walked back to her table quietly.*

`"I did what i had to nothing more, your free to try and raise your blade to me again, but a host's courtesy extends only so far for a troubled soul."`
Leah
"Ke ke ke, you will soon find and understand that I am unlike many that you've met. However you interpret that is left up to you"

*He said, though what is it did he mean? Did he mean in terms of personality? Actions? Strength? Speech? His words had weaved mystery and vagueness within, always beckoning a question about what he spoke, although true, never straying too far from the truth*

"Hm? I imagine the Taoist gave up on you? Seeing how the darkness within you still continued to fester"

*The Young man said*

"I was merely a passerby, nothing more nothing less. No guests would try to do some things"

*He spoke, if Orestis thought about it, his mannerisms and how he spoke wasn't one to be too conscious nor too polite in where it befits towards those of royalty. He gave no manner, and was indifferent towards most gestures and things done by Orestis. As in his head, not once was he mentioned to be a guest, nor did he consider himself one as he didn't present himself as a guest. It could be thought of that he was inconsiderate and crude, however on the other hand, he hadn't asked for any help nor food, he simply accepted what he was given. When he was released, he dropped to the floor, onto one knee. He chuckled lightly, standing up and raising a brow*

"Only a fool would try once more, what I merely did was gauge your strength. We both know that I could've delivered a more powerful attack, whilst you could've ended me in a moment"

"
Louann
`"If you believe so young warrior."`

*She had been across many realms seen everyone from almost all walks of life she had almost everything the depths of depravity from every race.*

`"The taoist give up on me no, I choose my own path as is the right of any soul, and my path and that of the taoists no longer aligns, all though belief systems may seem similar to that of a taoist they are vastly different in there own right."`

*Taking a soft breath thinking to herself for a few moments quietly.*

`"Then you take what is given and expect nothing more, or less."`

*She took no offense to anything not anymore it was the choice of another to be greatful or not, she also hadn't done anything out of kindness, or feeling of responsibility she just did so, because she chose to. No ulterior motive want or desire for any specified result or for him to see her any differently. Just as she could have killed him with the same indifference and felt nothing not hate or regret it just was the way of things.*

`"Of course young warrior I have seen what your power is capable of in my own way. One single move and all those adventurer's fell before you. I can also see the energy of those before me. You have time to grow and refine your abilities though you don't need me to tell you this as it is obvious. Go now warrior make your choice on what you will do next with your journey stay or go it matters not if you have any other questions for me I will listen to answer and if It be a request I will take your words with head."`

*He would find that she herself had no emotions in what she did it wasn't done with anything involved she just did it because she wanted to? She also had no emotions on her face always kept this calm look about her and her voice.*
Arnold
*When she explained the gist between her and the Taoist, he raised a brow. Interesting*

"We are but strangers, it would be too much for me to ask anything of you. Even the food, was too much"

*What she said wasn't wrong, he expected nothing from her, nor had any intentions of giving anything had she asked. Thus it was rather a mutual understanding between the two.*

"Hmph, I suppose staying would do no harm"
Louann
`"You need not ask then I extend my hand out towards you, I expect nothing in return. Not loyalty, gratitude or anything. I won't even ask you not to kill anyone of the town in which I reside but if you do so happen to do so I will return the same action in kind."`

*It could be seen as illusion of a choice but it was equal exchange a life for a life, soul for a soul.*

`"Come join us once more finish your food then I'll show you the town."`
Luz
`"Wow that super intense! For such a young man your very intelligent! I wonder who was your teacher and why are you wanted so?"`

*She asked enthusiastically with a smile she was very intrusive and brash with her questions and held nothing back.*

`"Oh even better tell me young warrior, what is that ability you used it wasn't mana! It was a different kind of energy! It looked so cool!"`

*She laughed to herself a bit but she was fascinated and wanted to learn if she could about what it was.*
Arnold
*Cheon Ma Qiu chuckled and nodded, he came back to the table and continued to eat once more. His gaze turning to Fayeth*

"My teacher? The Demonic strategist, and advisor, whom educated me and taught me the way of politics. But why am I wanted? Because, I've killed countless adventurers who've come for my head"

*He said plain and simple, although not very simple as the reasoning regards to his whereabouts. He had not come from this continent, but from a far away land himself. The eastern continent, home to the mainland of martial arts*

"That you will come to know and understand in the future. Or perhaps your lady may inform you, as I'm sure she would've picked up a trick or two by traveling with the Taoist"
Luz
`"Hmm the way of politics, and your educated if that be so this still doesn't explain why the adventurer's are coming for your head, that part remains elusive. My lady won't ask as she sees it as none of her business but I remain curious."`

*She spoke again before speaking.*

`"She doesn't speak of her past, my lady is more of in the moment person, at least I assume... I don't know."`

*She shrugged a bit as she looked at orestis who was quietly eating her lady did scare her a bit with how she has tremendous power but appears so weak she leaned forward across the table a bit to him.*
Louann
*Head turned to fayeth, and fayeth sat back down sighing deeply and crossing her arms.*

`"Which martial art sect do you serve or teachings you follow."`

*She knew it wasn't taoism standing up the knights begin to clean off the table and there food as they were done with there meals, she looked to fayeth and spoke.*

`"You will return to the town, esiyae remain with me. Young warrior will you join me on a small venture before we progress to the town?"`

*She stated asking him, there was a group of mages nearby from the order, a name that didn't befit what they did. They were growing closer to her town in search of a litch, that rested nearby off the side of the road to close to the town.*
Arnold
"Why I am wanted will be understood in due time. It is better to show you than to explain it myself"

*He said smiling with an ominous undertone. Although he could explain it simply, it would be better if the knight saw it with her own eyes so that she may make her own judgement*

"When one chooses not to speak of their past, it is because there is a deep regret or pain that looms over it"

*He said, although he didn't know exactly why or why they had split. Cheon Ma-Qiu understood that the pains and tragedy of one's past is unbearable or painful to relieve no matter how long ago or it be spoken. When Orestis asked about which martial sect he was from, he couldn't help but laugh*

"Ha ha ha, so it seems the fair lady understands my origins. I come from a sect that has lost its name with time and place in history. And that, I cannot disclose"

*With that he finished his food*

"I guess so, from now on I will be under your care"
Luz
`"Whenever that may be I wish to see it with my eyes."`

*She smiled but seeing as orestis said she had to return to the town she protested mid cleaning.*

`"I cannot I have to go with you. It is my duty your out here with just esiyae and then young warri.."`

*She didn't want to go back to the town she wanted to remain by her ladies side seeing orestis head turn to her again without saying any words she shut up and bit her tongue, finishing cleaning up she spoke to the boy.*

`"I never thought of it like that, be safe on your journey my lady, esiyae, young warrior."`

*She bowed her head and headed for towards the town*
Louann
*Heard a laugh and turned her head to face him, and spoke.*

`"I understand, and so is your right to not disclose."`

*She waited until he was finished with his food patiently once done she spoke once more.*

`"So be it that you are under my care., I have another question had anyone followed you up this mountain. It is isolated far from society in every direction."`

*She asked as she casted a spell Infront of her, with her a simple gesture of her hand, it would be as if the world flipped over on itself and they were now on a cliff side over looking a group of men, in steel clad armor 3 men were outside a cave of sorts, there was fighting going on inside the cave the sounds of steel flashing, and iron blood filling the air, also the presence of evil magic.*

`"This is why I ask. The order they call themselves."`

*She looked down with her head to sigil of there armor being that of the justice symbol on there chest plates.*
Leah
*When he was asked if he were followed, he raised a brow as he wondered why she asked? He wasn't offended, but more so curious*

"I think not, however, if someone did let me handle it, as it's my issue that they followed"

*And with that, 3 men in steel armor and the presence of evil around the air. He grinned as he gripped the pole of his spear*

"Ho? A noble sounding organization but with corruption within its roots. Why am I reminded of those orthodox dogs when I see these ants?"
Karen
*The three men guarding the entrance to the cave had there hands resting on the hilts of there blades and there shields they dawned also had the same sigil. They were oblivious to the presence of the three ontop of the cliff overlooking there area. 

Inside the cave faint shouting could be heard along with screams of men in a battle, they had come here to slay something but what was it? Or was it not to slay but capture for purposes currently unknown one of the knights of the order ran inside the cave to assist his comrades drawing his sword.*
Louann
`"Hmm I don't know if they did, but there presence here is strange, they are in search of something, proclaim to hunt and dispose of all those who are evil much like adventurer's but more centralized and religiously guided."`

*She stated watching him grin and grip the pole of his spear she wanted to know what they sought within the cave if it be anything of value it'll be better off in her hands then there's.*

`"I want to go see what they find of interest inside the cave, if they do happened to be ones that followed disposing them will be in your best interest. If not disposing of them would be in my best interest as they have ventured far from home into these mountains close to my home."`

*Not like they were good people either just self righteous on a high table whilst judging everyone else.*

`"I don't think I have got your name young warrior."`
