When Mertha turned and ran crying Kyla was stunned and said nothing. Nothing at all she had a look of concern and looked to her master did she do wrong? She was trying to make the woman use logic, was that incorrect? Daniel said nothing to her but moved everyone inside.<br/><br/>Sitting happily to his left as she ate, when he left after the meal she was curious and helped Beth and Lillith bring the dishes to the kitchen as she always did. By the time they got back it was just in time for William to remove his slave robes curious she watched as the man became a warrior once more. His final gift, the slave he listed for, Mertha.<br/><br/>Mertha's hesitation caught her off guard. Was Mertha actually loyal to Daniel? A oang of guilt ran through Kyla. She figured the woman had no true loyalty to their shared master. She was wrong.<br/><br/>"That...that was so nice of you to do Master. William looks so proud now." Kyla stated in awe. "He will be a loyal solider for you." Her smile brightened as she nodded to the girls to start cleaning after dinner leaving her and Daniel to their usual ritual of talk after dinner though it was later than usual.<br/><br/>"Will you be getting him quarters of his own tomorrow for him and Mertha?" She inquired not that the house wasn't big enough for the two of them but she wasn't sure the practice and code. This was the commander's house. She leaned against him gently as he finished his nightly paga, he always sipped it slow and with purpose. She sipped her watered down version comfortable against the heat he produced. "You plan something..." It was a question but a smirk of a notice.
