Alice had marveled at the drakes, it still all felt like something out of a fairytale.  She wondered if they ever caught or domesticated such animals.  When he urged her to return inside, it took a bit of her will to take his arm and return to their room.  She followed his lead back to the privacy of their room and considered his question.  Though she feared it might be rude to decline the captain's offer, she was actually quite interested in what this job entailed and she wanted to spend more time getting to know this man who had taken her in.  It seemed only respectful to do so, after all the work he had put in so far into ensuring she had clothing, and soon, a sense of what her place was in this new world.<br/><br/>"Now that we're back in the room, I'm sort of feeling the fatigue of all my excitement..." She watched with some curiosity as he removed some of the things he had on his person.  "As long as you do not think the captain would be overly offended if we decline, I think I'd prefer to share the meal with you alone.  That way you can tell me more about what you need done.  And I'd just like to continue to learn more about you, I find this world and the mark you have made on it quite fascinating."  Though the veil of wonder was still very much over her eyes and it was amplified by the concoction he had slipped into her juice at breakfast, she was starting to wonder about the amount of power Emlyn commanded and how he had come to this position.  It might have been intuition, but she could tell that her presence in his life had uprooted a few things.  He seemed a very orderly man and the way she had reacted to this world was anything but orderly.<br/><br/>"I'd like to help you get back into your routine, once we return to the city, of course.  I've known a few men that I think are like you in personality, and routine seemed paramount to them."  She explained.  Her mind was already on what she could do to help him, even with the small reservations in the back of her mind.  It seemed like he was deserving of her help.  She also wondered how a man such as him was alone, without a companion.  Even powerful men with poor personalities tended to have some kind of arm candy, and Azure had noted more than once that Emlyn hadn't had someone around in a while.  Not in the way that Alice was now around him.  "So tell me how I can help you with that, over dinner?
