He followed her out of the shelter and walked right next to her. His side was screaming out in pain with every step she took and he could only imagine how horrible it was for her, but he kept the pain from his eyes and his face. [i]"So... Are you going to talk to the spirit or something? Or is it not going to drown me if your here?"[i] He heard the suspicion in her voice. "Not sure, it said that since I helped it defeat it's enemies it would help me defeat my own. Thing is I don't really know how long it has been here. So I don't know what of the war it knows or if it saw what had happened here so long ago. So I am just being safe rather then sorry."<br/><br/>With that they reached they reached the water's edge, he placed a hand on her shoulder to have her stop before entering. In a few seconds the water spirit was walking towards them. She was made of water and her form kept changing, or at least right now it looked like a woman. When she spoke it sounded bubbly and even happy to see Artimer coming near, but she stopped short when she noticed Clairissa standing next to him. "Friend or foe, I wonder. Dragon, who is she, and why are you with another woman." Her voice was accusing and jealous.<br/><br/>Artimer looked surprised and even taken aback, "Wh-what?!?!" for several moments he stuttered and tried to find an appropriate response. "I-I have... What do you mean "other woman"?" He suddenly sputtered at the water spirit. "We only talked once, and nothing was said about you and me... When did this happen and where was I?" He looked more then just a little confused, he looked like his brain was about to snap as he tried to remember when that arrangement had been made and why he was not informed.
