*Rewinds to Arouland's post*<br/><br/>Donchen had just finished catching up to the rest of the group. Although he hasn't actually gotten a close look at a Ramen's face before, he believed he met one before. He was brought to a memory when he was once picking up a robed stranger along the road with his merchant cart. She sure as heck didn't look very healthy. It might have been that she literally left a trail of dead skin behind, and how she stood rather hunched.<br/><br/>She didn't say much about who she was, or why she was going to where she was going. Heck, the only words that were spoken were about giving her a ride to where she was going. Donchen did eventually worry about why she kept herself rather unusually concealed.<br/><br/>And now he knows why. The hideousness of Foran's revelation, it's no wonder why she kept herself hidden. It was most likely to prevent herself from being dropped off right on the spot. And the hunched back must've been a sign of her weakness, both physically and socially. Stopping a little short from the shock, he knew it was definitely going to be hard to get used to, but hopefully he won't insult him too badly until then.<br/><br/>-------------------------------------------<br/><br/>*Back to the present*<br/><br/>Donchen sort of felt the need to stay close to his new companions. Normally, Donchen would have been up and on his way after escaping from a perilous situation like before, but he can't help but feel like owes them for the escape, well Verita and Darion specifically. Besides, he still needs to know what that peril was all about. It was something about a disease that the villager was screaming about before they tried to kill him, and that was all he really could get.<br/><br/>So Donchen continued to walk with the group towards the woods, not entirely sure what to make of this situation and what was going to happen next. It wouldn't be before long before the awkward silence was going to apply pressure him again. He takes a look at the sky, and tries to clear his thoughts of the massive debacle that seems to be going on with his new companions.<div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
