<i>Talim sighed. It seemed two dark auras were drawing close to the inn. One was further  into the city, and the other was close, probably right outside the inn. Talim knew Paradox sensed this as well and he knew he would want to challenge them. Talim simply rolled his eyes when he caught his companion staring at him, with the same anxiousness in his eyes he had when he wanted to so called 'spar' with Domaki and Luna. Before he spooned anymore food into his mouth he sighed.<br/>
<br/>
"Paradox, I'm not fighting anymore tonight. So, you can go wander and talk to whoever you like. I'm tired and quite miserable that I have to eat cold food, while I'm soaked to a tee..."<br/>
<br/>
Talim spoke before he washed down the remains of rice and vegetables with his red wine. He paid the bill and started for the higher levels of the inn, off to his comfy bed. <br/>
<br/>
"Just be sure to be back by morning... I don't want to have to go soul searching for you." <br/>
<br/>
With that said, Talim went up to the room he ordered on behalf of Paradox. Personally he would have liked a smaller much closed in room. Paradox said nothing as Talim sort of ordered him around. He did cause him a bit of trouble and thought the least he could do was let him rest for the night. Standing in physical form he yawned into his transparent hand as he headed for the entrance of the inn.<br/>
<br/>
The silver-haired spirit floated outside to where he saw Valen come into view. He was the first dark aura he had sensed. <br/>
<br/>
"That's an interesting spirit you got there..."<br/>
<br/>
And for the first time, his words were genuine. In all his years of being in the realm of the living or dead he'd never seen a spirit such as Valen's. He was rather peculiar.</i>
